Chapter 3, Holy Mother of Fire Spirit

This Daoist temple is simple and elegant, ancient and tranquil, fulfilling Wen Zhong's every fantasy regarding the environment for cultivating immortality However, if possible, he still desires the luxurious and grand Tianyuan Palace

The liquid in the pool was soon unable to cover even his waist. Yu Yuan covered his face and sighed deeply: "Even taking a bath is not peaceful; this wretched sect truly cannot be endured any longer"

After swimming for a while, Yu Yuan lay back in the medicinal liquid, his brows slightly furrowed, murmuring to himself: "The effect is considerably worse than yesterday."

I heard that you were scolded again today. Your senior sister has come to check on you. I will give you a moment to get dressed and come out; otherwise, I might just come in.

... ...

Wen Zhong quickly bowed and said, "Disciple respectfully bids farewell to Master!"

She seems to have draped the evening glow of the horizon over her head, the elegant hem of her palace gown appearing to dance like petals, each piece sparkling, resembling a shower of light cascading through the air

Compared to them, Penglai Island is not particularly large, and the peaks on the island are not particularly high

After accompanying his master to pay respects to the ancestral master and various senior uncles, he spent the entire following day leisurely following his master's Seven Fragrance Treasure Car within the sacred realm of Penglai

After a moment, he finally raised his head and gently exhaled a long breath

What he did not see was a graceful figure draped in the glow of the evening clouds, floating past him overhead and disappearing into the Heavenly Yuan Palace

In the time that followed, Wen Zhong became somewhat distracted

Finally, refer to https://m.hetushu.com for the Di Sha Zhi Huo heating pool

This sentence occasionally pops up in my mind

Then, he plunged into the boiling medicinal liquid like a swimmer, beginning... freestyle.

In front stands an ancient pine tree, and behind lies a grove of bamboo.

That is good. From now on, you shall reside in the Shoujing Pavilion

Having spoken, she then floated away in the Qixiang treasure carriage

The beams are made of cloud-top sandalwood, the lamps are crafted from crystal and jade discs, and the curtains are adorned with pearls and jadeite

However, in terms of extravagance, even the most luxurious royal palace in the world cannot compare to this Heavenly Origin Palace in the slightest

The Holy Mother of Golden Spirit placed him in front of the Quiet Observation and then left a bottle of elixir. "The bottle contains a satiating pill; just one will instantly quench your hunger and thirst. You may reside here for a few days, and once you have cleansed yourself of worldly desires, I will impart to you the teachings of the Supreme Clarity."

The floor is laid with white jade, and the wall is adorned with golden lotuses

Isn't it too extravagant

The figure and appearance of the newcomer were clearly revealed before Yu Yuan's eyes

Isn't this the place where Senior Brother lives

At the inception of his transformation, he was punished by the Heavenly Dao for invading as a foreign soul. Not only was his golden finger erased, leaving only the information prompt panel, but he was also bestowed with the curse of "Counterproductive Actions".

In the distance, he saw a large palace-like structure halfway up the mountain, with golden glazed tiles shimmering with dazzling light under the setting sun

Under the circumstances of "acting against the natural order," he cultivates at hetushu.com, which will result in a deduction of his magical power. Eating and drinking will leave him unbearably thirsty, and healing will cause him to sustain injuries

Yu Yuan could not be bothered, simply lazily submerging himself in the medicinal liquid

The herbs in the pool possess the ability to erode both the physical body and magical power, but after prolonged use, his body has already developed a strong resistance

The main hall itself is protected by a formation, remaining untainted and indestructible

Wen Zhong traveled from the southern region of Zhanbu and, upon reaching the East Sea, saw numerous enormous immortal islands resembling land, as well as towering divine mountains that pierced the sky

However, the emergence of the explosive combustion cleared the toxic smoke from the hall, restoring its brightness.

They can only be mixed together, hoping to produce new toxicity

Hehe, today you should tell me the story of the ruthless Emperor, right

Within his field of vision, a transparent light curtain was continuously flickering

Soon, the pool water, stained a dark green by those magical herbs and plants, began to bubble with a "gurgling" sound.

Elder Yu said: "This kind of answer, Sister Huo Ling, you must comprehend on your own. As the saying goes, there are a thousand interpretations in a thousand people's eyes... Sigh, what are you doing?"

At the time when the sun was setting in the west, he followed the Seven Fragrance Treasure Carriage to Qianyuan Mountain

[Toxic gas continues to erode: Vitality + 233, Mana + 422]

In his impression, cultivators should not all be those who drink morning dew, sleep under the stars, and seek not a single tile of luxury in their books, but rather pursue a state of freedom and a focused heart

The palace not only covers a vast area but is also very magnificent

When the Holy Mother of Golden Spirit spoke, a Taoist temple suddenly appeared in the open space beside the Heavenly Origin Palace

[Toxic gas continues to erode: Health + 199, Mana + 495]

Wen Zhong was born into a noble family in Chaoge and was also well-exposed to the world.

She walks gracefully, her soft waist swaying like a water snake, her figure is exquisite to the utmost, and her curves are exceptionally beautiful

This is to help him become familiar with the environment

Through the thick poisonous smoke in the hall, one can vaguely see a strong, intense heat emanating from the newcomer, as if flames were burning fiercely around them

It seems necessary to find an opportunity to go elsewhere and bring back some new medicine

It was only when he was familiarizing himself with the environment that his master, with great earnestness, spoke a sentence that left him feeling unsettled for a long time

... ...

Wen Zhong shuddered and quickly tidied up his chaotic thoughts, whispering: "The disciple does not dare to forget"

However, Yu Yuan soon discovered that his injuries would increase his vitality and enhance his physical strength, while being nourished by the fairies would boost his magical power

... ...

The bathwater has cooled down; I will heat it up for you

[Severe Poison Continues to Erode: Health + 3292, Mana + 6523]

Immediately, he withdrew his gaze again

There are three or two rooms in the house, with only one grass window. The walls are made of mud, and the eaves are thatched, surrounded by fence posts. A plaque hangs on the door, inscribed with the three characters "Shou Jing Guan".

As she approached, Yu Yuan caught a whiff of a fragrant aroma and the scent of books

During their brief interaction in the morning, he indeed sensed the distinctiveness of that Senior Brother Yu Yuan

Ancient trees tower around the palace, providing ample shade with lush greenery, red walls, yellow tiles, and a resplendent golden brilliance

As he pondered this, a sudden thought struck him, and he turned his gaze towards the outside of the hall

... ...

This left him quite perplexed

Seeing that the time was almost right, Yu Yuan's mind stirred, and the clothes on his body vanished, revealing a strong and well-proportioned physique

He turned his head to glance at the opulent Tianyuan Palace not far away, then looked at his own Shoujing Temple, and his gaze gradually became resolute

Your senior brother is different from ordinary people; do not emulate him

Yu Yuan similarly said with irritation: "Are you here to see me? I would feel embarrassed to expose you."

A person walked to the edge of the swimming pool and said in a delicate voice: "Good junior brother, you have kept me waiting for half a month. Quickly tell me, is that ancient sacred body really her brother?"

However, this massive explosion did not have any impact on the people and objects within the hall

In his view, this should have originally been the responsibility of his senior brother, but it seems that the master holds him in particularly high regard

At this moment, the air was already filled with highly toxic gases; a mere whiff would likely cause a mortal being like Wen Zhong to collapse immediately. However, Yu Yuan seemed to be accustomed to it.

A moment later, a sound as crisp as a wind chime came in

This transparent light curtain is visible only to him, and it is one of his closely guarded secrets

The visitor, however, was accustomed to the routine, casually closed the palace door behind them, pushing that venomous dragon back down, and simultaneously said with irritation: "As your senior sister, I came to see you; at the very least, you should come out to greet me!"

As for people, it goes without saying that this minor explosion wouldn't even harm a single hair on their bodies

The transparent light screen before him underwent a dramatic change in an instant

The chemicals in the pool rapidly evaporated at high temperatures, and even the toxic fumes within the hall expanded under unimaginably high temperatures, resulting in a sudden explosion with a loud "bang"

As night fell, in a certain enclosed grand hall within the Heavenly Origin Palace, Yu Yuan, as usual, lit an oil lamp made from a mixture of deep-sea purple bile, dragon's saliva, and other ingredients. He then took out the spiritual spring water and poured it into the swimming pool, and finally, he retrieved over a hundred types of highly toxic spiritual herbs and plants, including Soul-Disrupting Grass, Forbidden God Flower, and Bone-Eroding Grass, and tossed them all into the pool.

After a moment, the palace door creaked open with a "squeak" as someone pushed it. Instantly, the thick, poisonous smoke within the palace surged out like a green dragon.

At the top of the bright red lacquered gate hangs a plaque inscribed with the three large characters "Tianyuan Palace"

Noticing that Wen Zhong was staring intently at the Heavenly Origin Palace, the Holy Mother of Golden Spirit said lightly, "Do not forget what I have told you."

[Severe Poison Continues to Erode: Health + 3139, Mana + 5465]

A tall young woman with an oval face and elegantly arched eyebrows was seen walking in mid-air above the swimming pool

However, no matter how it is adjusted, the effect continues to deteriorate.
