After listening to the Fairy of Suzhou recount the whole story, Hu Le couldn't help but chuckle.
In the mortal world, wealth can be a powerful motivator, and the same applies to the world of cultivation.
It was nothing more than a primordial spiritual root causing all this trouble...
He glanced at Fairy Gusu, but didn't reprimand her. This wasn't simply because Fairy Gusu was blinded by her spiritual root.
After all, he didn't know Long Yinzi's temperament.
Even if Fairy Gusu had yielded and given the Primordial Spiritual Root to Longyinzi, what could Longyinzi have done if he had thought Fairy Gusu was weak and easily bullied and was unwilling to give up?
He couldn't possibly mislead the younger generation...
After listening, Hu Le nodded noncommittally and asked calmly, "What are you planning to do next? Go back, or stay here to look for opportunities?"
Although the Fairy of Gusu had obtained a Primordial Spiritual Root, she was not satisfied. So she replied with a smile, "This disciple has come here with great difficulty. If I don't take full advantage of the opportunities and blessings, how can I leave this place?"
Seeing this, Hu Le said nothing more. Since the Fairy of Gusu was willing to stay here to seek opportunities, he would not stop her.
He merely cautioned, "While this place presents opportunities, it is also fraught with danger. Be careful and prudent, and do not be greedy."
Upon hearing this, Fairy Gusu was startled and quickly replied, "Thank you for your teachings, Uncle-Master. I will certainly keep them in mind."
After saying this, she bowed to Hu Le again, then took her leave. With Hu Le's permission, she turned and left.
Watching the departing figure of the Fairy of Gusu, Hu Le couldn't help but sigh.
The path of spiritual practice is long and arduous, and everyone has their own pursuits and goals.
As his junior fellow disciple, he hoped that she could go further on this path and gain more opportunities and achievements.
At the same time, he also looked forward to the moment he would meet this woman again, perhaps by then she would have fully grown up and be able to stand on her own...
After the Fairy of Gusu had gone far away, Hu Le withdrew his gaze, glanced around, and soon saw the giant sword left behind by Long Yinzi.
The greatsword hovered in mid-air, its blade swirling with intense killing intent. Its ferocious aura spread outwards, even polluting the surrounding primordial energy.
"Although this sword is exquisite, it is too fierce and violent, even surpassing the Four Swords of Zhuxian. It is not suitable for our Taoist immortals. Once someone wields this sword, it will surely bring bad luck and affect their own destiny and fortune..."
Hu Le glanced at the sword, shook his head slightly, then raised his hand and pointed, fixing the sword steadily in mid-air. He then flicked his sleeve and put it into his sleeve.
He decided that once he returned, he would find time to use his supernatural powers and the power of creation to remove the malevolent energy from the sword, and perhaps he could even gain some merit.
Hu Le raised his hand and pointed to the ground. Primordial purple energy quickly gathered beneath him and condensed into a purple lotus flower in the blink of an eye.
When the lotus bloomed, countless divine lights shone all around. The originally surging purple energy was immediately calmed down by the divine light and could no longer get close to Hu Le.
With a thought in his mind, Hu Le sent the purple lotus rushing toward the depths of the primordial energy.
After flying for a long time, they encountered several groups of Primordial Spirit Beasts on the road ahead. Some of these spirit beasts were friendly, while others were fierce and violent.
However, this meant nothing to Hu Le.
Of course, he didn't want to cause trouble. Most of the time, when he encountered Primordial Spirit Beasts blocking his way, he would avoid them if he could, or kill them if he could, without deliberately slaughtering them.
Not long after, a group of Primordial Spirit Beasts appeared ahead.
These spirit beasts are the Primordial Chaos Mosquito Clan. They are enormous, each one the size of a calf, and each has a long, thin, sharp mouthpart on its head.
Legend has it that this weapon is incredibly sharp, capable of piercing the protective divine light of immortals, and even primordial treasures cannot withstand a single stab from it.
Even the Primordial Giant Elephant Clan, known for its thick skin and tough flesh, could hardly withstand the mouthparts of the Demonic Mosquito Clan.
The swarm of Primordial Demon Mosquitoes was numerous, flying densely through the Primordial Qi, and blocking Hu Le's path.
One of the demonic mosquitoes sensed Hu Le's presence and immediately let out a sharp cry. The other demonic mosquitoes responded in unison, creating a deafening buzzing sound.
Hu Le frowned slightly, thinking to himself, "These Primordial Demon Mosquitoes are quite powerful; dealing with them will take a lot of effort."
But he refused to make a move, and the swarm of demonic mosquitoes were not going to let him go, and they all rushed towards him.
With a flick of his wrist, a bamboo staff shrouded in purple aura appeared. With a gentle wave, a sharp beam of primordial divine light shot towards the swarm of demonic mosquitoes.
Upon seeing this, the leading demonic mosquito spewed out a stream of black mist, which collided with the Primordial Divine Light released by Hu Le.
Suddenly, a loud bang erupted in the air. The divine light and black mist canceled each other out, and the surrounding primordial energy was also stirred up, collapsing and shattering, turning everything into ashes.
Seeing that his attack had failed, Hu Le's expression remained completely indifferent.
He swung his bamboo staff again, and beams of primordial divine light shot towards the swarm of demonic mosquitoes like raindrops.
At the same time, he unleashed his Dharma Body Heaven and Earth Divine Power, instantly transforming his body into an enormous form, like a pillar of the heavens.
Those Primordial Demon Mosquitoes were inherently bloodthirsty. They felt Hu Le's immense pressure, but instead of retreating, they became even more frenzied, fiercely attacking forward.
They were incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye they were in front of Hu Le, stabbing at him with their sharp mandibles.
Hu Le snorted coldly, and a Xuanhuang pagoda rose above his head, casting down streams of Xuanhuang energy to protect him.
At the same time, he brandished his bamboo staff and engaged in a fierce battle with the Primordial Demon Mosquitoes.
With each swing of the staff, several demonic mosquitoes would be smashed to pieces.
However, the number of these Primordial Demon Mosquitoes was simply too great, surging up in an endless stream and surrounding Hu Letuan in the middle.
He remained completely calm, his body swirling with mysterious yellow energy, the Primordial Bell at his waist jingling softly, and the bamboo staff in his hand constantly wielding, slaying one demonic mosquito after another…
After a fierce battle, Hu Le finally found the weakness of the swarm of mosquitoes.
He discovered that while these demonic mosquitoes were indeed powerful, they were extremely unintelligent, no different from ordinary insects. If he concentrated his efforts on attacking the few demon kings in the swarm and killed them, the remaining swarm of demonic mosquitoes would be leaderless and inevitably become chaotic.
So he began to deliberately target those key demon kings, unleashing several divine lightning bolts in succession.
With several screams, several demon kings were struck by divine lightning and fell from the sky, losing their lives.
Upon seeing this, the other demonic mosquitoes immediately lost their footing and scurried around like headless flies.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Hu Le launched a counterattack, swinging his bamboo staff faster and faster, radiating light as he killed the demonic mosquitoes one by one.
Ultimately, thanks to Hu Le's efforts, the swarm of Primordial Demon Mosquitoes was quickly wiped out.
He put away the Xuanhuang Pagoda and continued his journey deeper into the primordial chaos...
