Chapter 011 Apprenticeship at the Nether River

Seeing Minghe's composure, Mozu Luohu became interested!

After all, in the current Honghuang, not many could earn praise from him, a quasi-saint mighty figure!

"Does little friend know my Western purpose?" Mozu Luohu asked, his hands clasped behind his back.

Minghe raised an eyebrow and said, "Your junior knows a little!"

"Then do you think I can succeed?" Mozu Luohu asked again!

Minghe frowned. How could he know if you can succeed? This involves a battle between quasi-saints and a struggle for destiny. He was merely a late-stage Da Luo Golden Immortal, how could he possibly know?

So Minghe directly shook his head!

Mozu Luohu frowned and said, "Cannot?"

Minghe shook his head again and said, "It's that I don't know! After all, I haven't reached that level yet!"

Mozu Luohu laughed heartily. This Minghe was quite interesting!

Then, thinking of the battle he would face in the future, and whether he could succeed, he inexplicably asked, "Are you willing to take this venerable as your master?"

Minghe was stunned, then without a second word, he knelt down and said, "Greetings, Master!" He did not hesitate at all!

Having experienced hardship, Minghe knew what a powerful backer meant. Why did Sanqing bully him? Wasn't it because he couldn't defeat them, and because Sanqing had the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda!

Now that he had apprenticed himself to a quasi-saint mighty figure, if Sanqing wanted to bully him, they would have to reconsider!

This smooth and swift action stunned Mozu!

Seeing that Minghe had already bowed, Mozu Luohu chuckled. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Very well, my entire legacy now has someone to inherit!" Saying this, he pointed a finger, and a black lotus platform flew into Minghe's mind!

It then merged into him. Minghe closed his eyes and felt it. He knew this was Mozu Luohu's cultivation experience and his own understanding of the Dao!

"Since you have become my disciple, this is your master's welcoming gift!" Saying this, Mozu Luohu took out a small banner, which was the Western Plain Colored Cloud Banner!

A top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, one of the Five Directions Banners!

Minghe never expected to receive another top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. He was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly!

"You should not return for the time being. Stay here and comprehend my legacy. As for the Three Clans, I have other arrangements. Your recent actions, while accelerating the war between the Three Clans, have also disrupted some of my plans," Mozu Luohu said!

Minghe nodded. Being able to meticulously study the Dao now, and having someone else plan for the Three Clans, meant that the final benefits would all be his. Naturally, it was even better!

Just as Minghe arrived in the West, Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun were discussing matters at Wuzhuang Guan!

Among them, Hongyun said with envy, "Zhen Yuanzi, you are like Daoist Taiqing Laozi. One has the Book of Earth, and the other has the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda, making you invincible from the start. But I don't even have a spiritual treasure. No, I must also go find spiritual treasures!"

"Hongyun, didn't you not care about these things before?" Zhen Yuanzi asked!

Hongyun's old face blushed. Indeed, he didn't care, as no one could catch up to him. But seeing how wealthy his fellow Daoist Sanqing was, and knowing they had found treasures on Buzhou Mountain, he also wanted some!

During this period, Hongyun had visited Buzhou Mountain quite a few times, but he hadn't encountered a single spiritual treasure. Therefore, Hongyun began to pester Zhen Yuanzi, hoping that Zhen Yuanzi would accompany him. After all, Zhen Yuanzi was blessed with Dao fortune and great destiny, so perhaps he could encounter some Innate Spiritual Treasures!

Unable to bear Hongyun's pestering, Zhen Yuanzi could only agree to accompany Hongyun to Buzhou Mountain!

It should be known that in the previous timeline, this had not happened. Now that Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun were also going treasure hunting, it could be said that Taiqing Laozi's butterfly wings had indeed stirred a butterfly effect!

Taiqing Laozi was unaware of these matters. He was currently refining pills on Kunlun Mountain!

Hongyun and Zhen Yuanzi thus arrived at Buzhou Mountain. Although the journey was not peaceful, with Hongyun pulling Zhen Yuanzi along, those people couldn't keep up with Hongyun's speed!

"This is Buzhou Mountain!" Zhen Yuanzi exclaimed. Not only was there a vast oppressive aura, but the towering peaks reaching into the clouds also filled Buzhou Mountain with mystery!

"Huh? This feeling!" Zhen Yuanzi frowned. He suddenly felt a pulling force drawing him in that direction!

Hongyun looked at Zhen Yuanzi with envy. As expected of someone blessed with Dao fortune! As soon as they arrived, there was a treasure calling out. This feeling meant that a treasure was summoning him!

Then, Hongyun followed behind Zhen Yuanzi, and they arrived at a mountain valley. An Innate Grand Array appeared. Hongyun said, "Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, let me lend you a hand!"

He unleashed his innate divine ability, transforming into an invisible and colorless cloud, and floated into the Grand Array. Soon, Hongyun reached the array's core. Since the array was uncontrolled, Hongyun quickly gained control of it and stopped it!

At this time, Zhen Yuanzi could also see everything within the array. At the array's core was a bitter bamboo, one of the ten top-grade Innate Spiritual Roots, the Innate Bitter Bamboo!

However, the oppressive aura of Buzhou Mountain was too strong, directly erasing the bamboo's spiritual essence. Otherwise, Honghuang would have gained another Innate Divine Demon!

Zhen Yuanzi had taken form from the essence of Innate Wutu, sharing the same origin as the Ginseng Fruit Tree and being one of the Ten Great Innate Spiritual Roots. The bitter bamboo sensed Zhen Yuanzi's aura and thus emitted this subtle attraction!

In fact, if Zhen Yuanzi hadn't arrived first, and if Zhunti had come later, this spiritual treasure would have attracted Daoist Zhunti!

However, Zhen Yuanzi was completely unaware of this at the moment. With a wave of his hand, the bitter bamboo transformed into a stream of light and flew into Zhen Yuanzi's hand, becoming a bitter bamboo staff. It possessed the ability to seal a person's six senses and was considered a top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure!

"Zhen Yuanzi, you see? I told you we need to get out more often for such opportunities!" Hongyun said wistfully. Others get top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures as soon as they arrive, while he got nothing. Truly, comparing oneself to others is maddening!

Zhen Yuanzi chuckled. This was good. This trip to Buzhou Mountain was indeed worthwhile. Although Zhen Yuanzi had the Book of Earth for defense, he lacked offensive spiritual treasures. Now, with this bitter bamboo staff, he was complete in both offense and defense!

Afterward, the two began to wander aimlessly, as they didn't know where else there might be spiritual treasures, so they could only explore randomly!

However, soon, Zhen Yuanzi fell into a Grand Array without any warning!

Because Zhen Yuanzi triggered it, it only then appeared. Hongyun smacked his forehead. This was Dao fortune and great destiny? Indeed, he couldn't envy it!

However, since his friend had discovered the array, he unleashed his innate divine ability, floated inside, and helped Zhen Yuanzi break through the array quickly!
