Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

After leaving the Zixiao Palace, Minghe rushed to the Treasure Gifting Rock. It was not large, but it was overflowing with an unusual brightness and was really attractive. It was covered by some tactical formations and the treasures on the rock were still there as they could not easily be taken away.

The Three Pure Ones followed Minghe. And upon seeing that they were pursuing him, Minghe plunged directly into the rock. He immediately recognized that he seemed to have stepped into another space that was formed by some common tactical formations.

Inside, the space was bending and nobody was able to fly. Minghe immediately released his Good and Evil Separations to find more treasures. The rock had been set by Hongjun, so no one could find as much treasure as he wished—it all depended on one’s fate.

Minghe was the first to get into the Treasure Gifting Rock, and the other cultivators, who were not willing to be left behind, quickly followed. The rock was full of glory, and it seemed that there were a lot of treasures within it. But with 2,000 cultivators there, the supply would not meet the demand, so most of them would get nothing.

It did not take long before the Treasure Gifting Rock vibrated and all of the cultivators that had entered were forcibly ejected. When Minghe came out, he took his two Separations back. He had gained a lot, but he thought that it was a little bit strange.

The Three Pure Ones had undoubtedly gotten the most. Laozi’s Map of Tai Chi was full of glory, which meant that he had gained a few Primordial Spiritual Treasures, while there were over 20 Primordial Spiritual Treasures in Yan Shi’s Pangu Banner, and that made him full of smiles. However, when he found out what Tongtian had gained, his pleasant mood suddenly disappeared.

There were dozens of Primordial Spiritual Treasures under Tongtian’s God-killing Sword Formation. He was maybe the one who had gained the most. As for Goddess Nvywa, Fuxi, and Taiyi, they all had gotten their own treasures. And even Jieyin and Zhunti had gained some, which made them both happy.

Minghe counted the treasures he had gotten from the Treasure Gifting Rock and he was really satisfied with the result. On top of that, his Good Separation had gained 33 Primordial Spiritual Treasures that were not at a very high level, but had a great formation. All of the treasures were beads, which caused Minghe to complain, "With all of these beads, you just want me to open a jewelry shop, right?"

Although each of the 24 Sea-protection Pearls were Low-Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasures, combining all of them would turn them into a Top Grade treasure. And with the combination of these pearls and the Ruler of Heaven and Earth, Minghe could predict the Deva-loka.

The other nine pearls were the Five Elements Spiritual Beads and the Four Signs Spiritual Beads, each of which were Mid-Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasures. If combined together, they would become a Top-Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure. His Good Separation had gained three Top-Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasures, which was not bad.

The only Top-Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure that the Evil Separation Red Lotus Taoist found was actually a Lotus Lamp. The lamp should have been a magic weapon of Nvywa, but somehow it was acquired by Red Lotus Taoist. The power of the lamp was really great, having no less than a Primordial Spiritual Treasure did. Minghe would need to go back home and study its details.

In contrast, Minghe himself gained the least. He had only obtained one Mid-Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure and three Low-Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasures. The Mid-Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure was a God Lock, which could be used to block immortals’ Original Spirits, while the three Low-Grade treasures were respectively a blade, a sword, and a halberd, which were all disdained by Minghe.

The crowd was ejected from the Treasure Gifting Rock and this caused it to violently shake. Eventually, all of the obstacles and the tactical formations disappeared, revealing the remaining Primordial Spiritual Treasures. All of the Primordial Spiritual Treasures turned into a stream of light that shot toward Untainted Land. Seeing that, the cultivators who had not found any treasures were greatly shocked, feeling that there must be a method of finding Spiritual Treasures in Untainted Land.

It was a pity that Spiritual Treasures had souls and that they could not show themselves or easily be found by other people. They could only be found by someone who had gotten lucky. With all of the treasures gone, leaving only the empty Treasure Gifting Rock there, the cultivators were disappointed and either went back to the Zixiao Palace or to Untainted Land.

Minghe looked at the Treasure Gifting Rock and then waved his sleeves to collect it. Even though he did not know what the rock was, he knew that it could not be a bad treasure because it had been used to hold Hongjun’s Primordial Spiritual Treasures.

Everyone present who saw Minghe collect the rock were regretting the fact that they did not think to do the same.

The teaching was over and Ancestor Hongjun would now combine himself with the Great Way, which was a good chance for the people to feel the stateliness of the Way of Heaven, so they would not miss this. After going back to the Zixiao Palace, they saw Hungjun’s vital force change to become illusory, and although it was still there, it seemed to be nonexistent.

Hongjun looked at the dozens of people there, and said softly, "Since the Creation of Heaven and Earth, all of the beings were created and I received the Mortal Instrument of Fate and made teachings, receiving a fulfillment of merit."

All of the people bowed and said, "Master, please think twice!" Minghe stood far away and stayed out of the affair. Moreover, he despised their hypocrisy. Actually, all the people had been secretly pleased for a long time. They knew that Hongjun would be least likely to come out after the integration. In that case, the people present would gain supremacy over all the others in Untainted Land, because they all were Sages-to-be.

Hongjun looked at them and continued by saying, "Keep it in mind that, for the Way of Heaven, you only need to consider the Trend and Fortune of Heaven. Thus, the Great Way will be prosperous. The Saints will appear if you comply with the Way of Heaven. When you become a Saint, you will be eternal if you are free from the influence of Karma. And by doing nothing, the Saints will neither fail nor have any loss. Hence, a Sage eschews excess, extravagance, and pride."

"We will not forget what you said, Master!" Everyone bowed again. Finally, Hongjun said, "Keep in mind that I will not appear unless there is a Cultivation Tribulation between Heaven and Earth. From now on, I am the Way of Heaven, while the Way of Heaven is not me. Please take care of yourself." Hongjun’s words could be considered as advice or a warning.

In the end, Hongjun summoned the Jade Butterfly of Fate, and gently spit out two words: "co-Great Way". Then, the Jade Butterfly of Fate immediately became a golden wheel and Hongjun’s figure moved toward it and disappeared. Finally, the wheel also hid inside the Void and disappeared.

After Hongjun’s disappearance, the people who were present left one by one. On the way home, Minghe was thinking about the golden wheel. In his opinion, it had to be the Way of Heaven. From it, Minghe could deeply feel the power of Heaven, which was not as easy as he thought.

After returning to Untainted Land, Minghe took a look in the direction that Hong Yu had left and then flew to the Blood Sea. Hongyun was temporarily safe because he was together with Zhenyuanzi. However, his death would be close at hand if those ambitious schemers were unable to resist themselves any longer. Even if Zhenyuanzi deliberately protected him, Hongyun would be doomed to die.

On his way back to the Blood Sea, Minghe looked over the Treasure Gifting Rock. As for the treasure, there were different opinions in many novels. Some said that it was turned from the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth. However, Minghe owned the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, so that was ridiculous.

After removing the outermost layer of the Treasure Gifting Rock, Minghe finally saw its true appearance. Actually, it was a piece of the original Chaos Rock and it was also rare in the Chaos. Although it could be a good material for refining weapons, in a short period of time, it was useless.

The Original Stone of Chaos was extremely tough, but the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth could convert it. Regrettably, Minghe was not capable to convert it into a Magic Weapon. To do that, he had to reach the Realm of the Origin at least. Otherwise, it would be a waste of the treasure.

After his return to the Blood Sea, Minghe started his Closed Door Meditation again. But he did not plan to spend a lot of time on it because he just wanted to rethink his perception of the Way of The Origin. Moreover, he would not be in the mood to continue his Closed Door Meditation because big events would be happening unceasingly. Therefore, it would be bad to miss anything.

After the third teaching in the Zixiao Palace, Hongjun combined himself with the Great Way, so there was no Sage gaining supremacy over others in Untainted Land. However, there were some other people who could become Sages. Therefore, if those Almighty Ones in Untainted Land had evil intentions, a bloody fight would be unavoidable.

However, even if they were bold enough, they would not dare to take actions against the six people, including the Three Pristine Ones, Goddess Nvywa, Jieyin, and Zhun Ti, because Ancestor Hongjun had mentioned that those six people could become Sages. If they dealt with those six people, Ancestor Hongjun would be offended. Therefore, Hongjun became the target of all the Almighty Ones. However, Hongjun did not know his plight. At that time, he was enjoying ginseng in Zhenyuanzi’s mansion.
