Chapter Five: The Spirit Root of Mount Taiyi

  Apart from that, Shi Zhong also obtained a mid-grade pre-heavenly spirit root green tea tree, which sheds its leaves once every thousand years.

  Each time, only 1.296 million leaves are sent out, and the tea brewed with the leaves born on this innate spiritual tea tree has not only the effect of calming the mind but also to some extent, it can improve one's mental cultivation. For cultivators, this is a treasure that cannot be obtained in large quantities!

  Especially for a great master like Shi Zhong, even if he eats the fruit of the extreme product of the first heaven and spirit root, it will only increase his magical power and enjoy the taste. But this spiritual tea is different, you know that cultivation is easy to upgrade, but the state of mind is difficult to improve!

  As for the other spiritual objects, they were all acquired later in life, and Shi Zhong didn't pay much attention to them. Shi Zhong simply placed the few pre-heavenly spiritual roots he had obtained into his own Chaos Space to nurture them, and as for those post-heavenly spiritual roots, Shi Zhong also wanted to put them into his own Chaos Space.

  After all, his own chaotic space was already filled with the Great Dao, although it could be said that there were not many complete ones. Shi Zhong believed that the spiritual roots in his body's chaotic world would evolve, but as for the acquired spiritual roots...

  It is impossible to put it into the chaotic world and leave, because as a postnatal thing, if it is stained with the air of chaos, it will be swallowed by the air of chaos. Only those with some innate indestructible spiritual light in their innate spiritual root can do so.

  So putting it in the chaotic world won't have too many accidents, but instead will slowly evolve under the continuous baptism of the Tao of Chaos and the space of Chaos.

  Shi Zhong clearly felt that after putting the innate spiritual root of Huang Tao and the innate green tea into his own chaotic space, these two innate spiritual roots were constantly absorbing the Dao rhyme in the chaotic world, growing rapidly, although it would not change much in a short period of time.

  But Shi Zhong believed that after a very long time, these two congenital spiritual roots might grow into top-grade congenital spiritual roots like Huang Zhongli, Renshengguo and Pantao. However, whether they could become Chaos Spiritual Roots, Shi Zhong did not dare to confirm, after all, this was a process, and certain prerequisites were needed for major progress.

  It won't be that easy to evolve like that. Shi Zhong wouldn't have high expectations for such a situation either. After all, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment!

  "Mount Tai is really big and high! It's simply impossible to see the end, this Mount Tai must occupy at least hundreds of millions of square kilometers! Ah! Do you have to make a single mountain so huge?"

  Shi Zhong went through a year of wind and rain, countless times of fantasy, and finally saw the mountain he dreamed of, which is also the most mysterious mountain in mythological stories - Mount Buzhou.

  I've heard many different versions of the legend of Shi Zhong's loyalty in his past life, but seeing it with my own eyes is a completely different story! This is indeed Shi Zhong's first heart's desire since his rebirth in the Primordial Chaos!

  Only see the Mount Buzhou, one glance can't reach its top. This Mount Buzhou is transformed from Pangu's spine to support the sky, so it must be extremely high! Moreover, this Mount Buzhou is transformed from Pangu's spine, so the spiritual energy is very dense and not comparable to ordinary places.

  Besides, Shi Zhong knew that Buzhou Mountain was a famous treasure trove in the vast wilderness! To say nothing of other things, even the top-grade congenital spiritual root calabaza and top-grade congenital spiritual root banana tree were from Buzhou Mountain. According to legend, the seven brothers of Calabaza were also derived from the remaining roots of the top-grade congenital spiritual root calabaza. Of course, this was just some minor Daoist news, but it was hard to verify its authenticity.

  But to talk about this top-grade congenital spiritual root gourd vine, one must mention the powerful treasure it produces. The gourd vine produced a total of seven congenital gourds, each of which can be refined into an extraordinary high-quality congenital spiritual treasure.

  The first, the purple gold, the purple gourd of red gourd, was obtained by Laozi and later given to his incarnation Taishang Laojun for the purpose of Sheng Dan. This is also a family heirloom of Laozi's, mainly used for making elixirs. If it were someone else, they wouldn't treat this pre-heavenly spiritual treasure as if it were their ancestral master.

  Who would have thought that I'd waste a top-grade innate spiritual treasure like this? And it's still a high-quality innate spiritual treasure, in the Desolate World, although there are many spiritual treasures, but top-grade innate spiritual treasures like the Purple Golden Gourd are not many!

  Haven't you seen how Red Cloud treasures that Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Gourd of his, like it's his own life? Looks like our old man here doesn't know what the phrase "waste is shameful" means!

  Moreover, the power of spiritual treasures like the Purple Gold Gourd is still very strong! Didn't you see in Journey to the West that Sun Wukong was trapped by this gourd multiple times? You should know that at that time, Sun Wukong had at least achieved Golden Immortal cultivation!

  Don't think that just because someone is only a Golden Immortal, they are weak and small. You should know that every Golden Immortal in the current Primordial Chaos can be considered a powerful ancestor. And in the past, when spiritual energy was much weaker than it is now, even Earth Immortals were already very impressive. So this old man has so many spiritual treasures that he doesn't know where to spend them!

  Second, crimson red, ninety-nine scattered soul red gourd, obtained by Hong Yun Dao Ren.

  Compared to Laozi's waste, this little red cloud is actually not bad, because the character of this red cloud is really too poor. Even if you search from head to toe, you won't find a second spiritual treasure besides the Jiujiu Sansheng Hulu.

  So, Hongyun's body and mind only had this opinion of Lingbao obtained from the calabaza vine. All day long, it can be said that the treasure is inseparable from the body, the body is inseparable from the treasure, the treasure is the body, and the body is the treasure, reaching the legendary state of unity between the body and the treasure. To say that Hongyun was not only of poor character, but also extremely poor, later it was because he yielded to the Western Pure Land's sacred position, implicating Kunpeng who was then killed by Kunpeng.

  We've been taught since childhood that doing good deeds is a good thing, and giving up one's seat is also a good deed. However, even if you're doing a good deed, don't drag someone who doesn't want to do a good deed along with you! Otherwise, why would they want to kill you? Ah! Let's observe three minutes of silence for Hong Yun!

  Third, the purple and white color, beheading immortal gourd, was obtained by Dong Huang Tai Yi. Although it is said that this Dong Huang Tai Yi is not a good person either, he is indeed much better than Lao Zi in terms of utilizing spiritual treasures. Dong Huang Tai Yi cultivated the gourd into a fearsome beheading immortal gourd and gave it to his tenth nephew, Lu Ya. Later, Lu Ya used it to behead his own evil corpse.

  It's a great show of the gourd's prowess during the Investiture of the Gods, truly making one tremble with fear! It's almost to the point where it can be used as a necessary treasure for women to scare their children into not crying at night.

  Fourth, purple and blue, the demon gourd obtained by Nüwa, was made into a demon flag, later given to Emperor Jun, allowing Emperor Jun to use it as a tool to unify the demon tribe. After the great war between witches and demons, it returned to Nüwa's hands.

  Nüwa can be used to summon all kinds of monsters in the world, and the nine-tailed fox spirit she later summoned is proof.

  The fifth, purple and yellow in color, is the Water Fire Gourd, obtained by Tongtian Jiao's master. Inside it were placed two Water Fire Qilin that had achieved high levels of cultivation. Later on, its specific use was unknown.

  The sixth is purple-green in color and was obtained by Emperor Haotian. It can produce the Three Lights Divine Water that nurtures the spiritual roots of all living things under heaven.

  Although the three divine lights water produced is not much, and it takes a long time to nurture dozens of drops. However, when it comes to the effect of the three divine lights water, it's against the sky, not only has a therapeutic effect on the yuan god injury but also has an effect on the spiritual root that cannot be ignored.

  Take the Ginseng Fruit of Pre-Heavenly Spirit Root, which was saved by Guanyin Bodhisattva in Journey to the West, for example. With just a few sprinkles of water, the Ginseng Fruit tree was restored to its original state, and it even became more vibrant with life force than before! It's worth noting that not all the water in Guanyin Bodhisattva's Jade Pure Vase is Triple Divine Water!

  The three divine lights water in Guanyin's jade pure bottle was a spiritual treasure given to Guanyin by Yuanshi when she joined the Xianjiao sect, along with the jade pure bottle. There were only a few dozen drops, but later Guanyin added many lotus water essences, diluting the three divine lights water greatly. However, even after being diluted countless times, it still has such effects, which can be seen as a testament to the extraordinary nature of the three divine lights water.

  It is said that the 3,600 peach trees of Queen Mother were grown from the pits of peaches using the effect of San Guang divine water. Otherwise, how could a single top-grade pre-heavenly Linggen peach tree originally have only one pit become 3,600?

  Some people say it's one in three thousand six hundred, others aren't fools either, why would they divide such a good congenital spiritual root into ordinary spiritual roots?

  The seventh, purple-black in color, the Chaotic Gourd, can form its own chaos. It was obtained by Yuanshi Tianzun and later refined into the Chaotic Box by him. It's extremely powerful!

  This Chaos Primordial Box is because it contains the Chaos Primordial Qi, so it can devour all post-heavenly objects. Of course, you need to have enough cultivation, and some meritorious objects are also impossible. But still has a great restraint effect on most post-heavenly objects. It's one of the three treasures in the Heavenly Palace, which is the Chaos Primordial Box where the second of the Three Pure Ones died at the hands of Yuanshi Tianzun in Investiture of the Gods.
