120: Five-needle pine joins the group, wind and thunder immortal apricot

Soon, Five-Needle Pine and Laozi reached an agreement under Li Yun's witness.

From now on, Five-Needle Pine would belong to the Three Pure Ones lineage, recognized as an Innate Deity allowed to reside within Kunlun Mountain.

Similarly, Five-Needle Pine was not a subordinate of the Three Pure Ones, but rather an equal, forming an offensive and defensive alliance and consolidating their interests.

It seemed like a simple matter.

But Li Yun also saw the difference in it.

According to the Three Pure Ones, there were quite a few innate spiritual roots within Kunlun Mountain, and almost all of them had reached the level of Great Overarching Golden Immortal Perfection and above.

They had not reached the Quasi-Saint stage, but they had surpassed Great Overarching Golden Immortal Perfection, and could be said to be special ultimate Grand Unity Golden Immortals.

Once all these individuals were gathered, the number of top-tier combatants in the Three Pure Ones lineage on Kunlun Mountain would reach an extremely terrifying level.

Once these people obtained simple Methods of Proving the Dao, such as Dao Proving through Fortune or Dao Proving through Law, then their promotion to Quasi-Saint would be a foregone conclusion.

Once there were a dozen or twenty Quasi-Saints residing on Kunlun Mountain, led by the Three Pure Ones, they would truly establish themselves in the Primordial World, and could even expand the territory of Kunlun Mountain. By then... “Alright.”

At this moment, Laozi’s voice echoed, interrupting Li Yun's thoughts: “This matter is settled then!”

“Fellow Daoist Five-Needle Pine, you can rest here for a while and build your residence!”

“Fellow Daoist Li Yun and I still have other places to go. We'll meet again!”

After speaking, Laozi no longer lingered and immediately took Li Yun away from the place.

And with the departure of Li Yun and Laozi, Five-Needle Pine couldn't help but sigh.

He never expected that his cautiousness for so many years would ultimately lead to such a result.

However, since things had come to this point, he had no room for regret. He immediately turned and returned to the valley.

Looking at the empty valley and the area where his Main Body had previously disappeared, Five-Needle Pine clapped his hands on the ground: “Open~”

The next second, Five-Needle Pine's Origin magic power swept out.

Green light burst forth from the deep pit, and then a sapling could be seen rapidly emerging from it, growing at a visible speed.

Before long, a Five-Needle Pine, more than ten times smaller than before, appeared.

However, it was no longer one of the ten great innate spiritual roots, nor even a top-grade innate spiritual root; it was merely a High Grade innate spiritual root.

“Alas~”

“Although I was prepared, I didn't expect such a big difference!”

Sighing, Five-Needle Pine felt quite depressed, but fortunately, this also gave him something to rely on.

With a thought, Five-Needle Pine directly controlled the big tree to continue growing, and before long, a treehouse grew in the area in front of it.

After doing all this, Five-Needle Pine no longer lingered and stepped inside.

As the valley returned to calm, the squirrels that had left earlier also returned, scrambling back to the newly grown pine tree, each finding a place to settle and rest... Li Yun and Laozi were unaware of all this.

At this moment, the two of them flew for a while longer within Kunlun Mountain, and soon arrived at a cliff.

As far as the eye could see, the entire cliff area was surrounded by mist, and faintly, a tree could be seen growing on the edge of the cliff, with most of its body extending out. Its branches and leaves were lush, and faintly, fruits could be seen hanging from them.

Just then, an eagle descended from the sky.

It swooped down, plunged into the mist, and swallowed a fruit with its mouth open.

The next second, wind and thunder intertwined.

The power of wind and thunder surged on the eagle's wings. As it spread its wings and soared, its speed increased by more than ten times, and it was even entwined with the power of wind and thunder, causing its cultivation to leap to the True Immortal Realm!

“I found you, Wind and Thunder Immortal Apricot!”

A glint flashed in his eyes. Li Yun stared intently at the cliff, and under the gaze of his Purple Gold Divine Pupils, the Main Body of the Wind and Thunder Immortal Apricot was revealed without a doubt.

But just as he and Laozi approached, an unexpected event quietly occurred.

Screech—

Screech—

Cries echoed, and following the sound, the eagle could be seen returning, and behind it were more eagles, each entwined with the power of wind and thunder, clearly due to having eaten the immortal apricot.

And there were hundreds, even thousands, of these eagles. Their cultivation was at least True Immortal Realm, with some even reaching the Golden Immortal Realm.

These Wind and Thunder Eagles gathered together, directly covering the cliff area, staring hostilely at Li Yun and Laozi, constantly crying out as if to drive them away!

“Good heavens!”

“This Wind and Thunder Immortal Apricot has raised so many Wind and Thunder Eagles over the years!”

“First, Five-Needle Pine raised squirrels, and now the immortal apricot raises eagles. These innate spiritual roots really know how to have fun.”

Li Yun opened his mouth, somewhat speechless.

At the same time, he already had a rough judgment in his mind.

If this was indeed the case, then imparting the Dao Proving through Fortune and Dao Proving through Faith methods to Five-Needle Pine would definitely be suitable and most fitting for them.

After all, having joined the Three Pure Ones lineage, with the Luck of Kunlun Mountain as their backing, plus their self-raised small animals being 100% severely injured, collecting Power Of Faith would definitely be simple!

“Disperse~”

At this moment, a low voice echoed.

The next second, the Wind and Thunder Eagles in mid-air circled for a moment, seemingly hesitating, but ultimately chose to leave.

After the figures of the Wind and Thunder Eagles left, the voice of the immortal apricot came from within the mist: “Since you two Fellow Daoists have arrived, please come in!”

Immediately after, the clouds and mist dispersed, revealing a path leading to the top of the cliff.

Seeing this, Laozi and Li Yun did not hesitate, and directly flew towards it on their clouds.

Before long, the two arrived at the area where the immortal apricot was located.

As far as the eye could see, a young man with green hair and purple eyes, with a well-proportioned and tall figure, was lazily lying there, holding and eating an immortal apricot in one hand. He looked extremely relaxed and at ease!

However, the young man's body was not solid; several areas still looked somewhat illusory, clearly not his Main Body, but rather the Immortal Apricot Spirit!

“Greetings, Fellow Daoist immortal apricot!”

“Greetings, Fellow Daoist immortal apricot!”

Floating down to the ground, Li Yun and Laozi cupped their fists in salute.

Then, Laozi did not waste any words and directly said: “Fellow Daoist immortal apricot, I want to take your Main Body. You can extract a part of its essence to transform. What do you think?”

“Of course, you can also state any conditions you have. After all, we are all beings of Kunlun Mountain, and I will not directly kill you!”
