In a moment of reflection, Yi Shuihan decided to adopt a name that suited the local customs.
He originally wanted to choose the name "Supreme," but that seemed a bit arrogant, so he simply took the first character and added his surname to the end.
Speaking of Taiyi, Yi Shuihan also recalled a sentence he had once seen.
"Tai means great, infinitely great, the supreme and noble virtue. Yi means change. The interaction of the sun and moon, the alternation of Yin and Yang. Therefore, the Dao transforms into change, and from change comes Taiji, which gives rise to the two polarities."
Yes, Taiyi still has a lot of class.
"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Taiyi. I am Hongyun, this is my good friend Zhen Yuanzi, and this is Houtu, the Ancestral Witch of the Wu Clan. We were originally traveling near Buzhou Mountain when we discovered that a treasure had appeared here, so we rushed over. Since some people have already arrived, Zhen Yuanzi and I will not take the treasure."
Hongyun said in a very friendly manner.
Zhen Yuanzi, standing to the side, felt quite helpless when he heard his old friend make the decision for him, but he didn't blame Hongyun, as he knew Hongyun's temperament.
"I'm just here to take a look; I don't want any treasures."
Houtu quickly explained that as an ancestral witch, she was not so dependent on external things, and that she had not yet recognized the Three Lights Divine Water, which was why she said that.
Hongyun, Zhenyuanzi, and Houtu were so sensible that even Tongtian, one of the Three Pure Ones, felt a little embarrassed. Yuanshi, on the other hand, was thick-skinned and remained unmoved, while Laozi still acted as if he didn't care about anything.
"Although I was the first to discover this place, since you fellow Daoists have come here, it means you are destined to be here. How can I enjoy it all by myself? Let's put aside the fruit for now, and as for the Three Lights Divine Water, how about we each share some when the fruit ripens?"
"The Three Lights Divine Water? Is that the Three Lights Divine Water that's hailed as the number one healing elixir in the primordial world?"
Houtu was the first to call out, and then a blush appeared on her face. She had said she didn't want anything before, but now she regretted it. The Three Lights Divine Water was also extremely useful to the Wu Clan.
Houtu is in a dilemma right now.
Seeing Houtu's hesitation, Yi Shuihan continued, "The value of the Three Lights Divine Water is far less than that of this fruit. You've come all this way, so you can't leave empty-handed. If you don't take it, I won't be able to live with myself."
These words made it seem as if refusing the Three Lights Divine Water would be disrespectful to him. Since Houtu and the others also wanted the Three Lights Divine Water, they naturally went along with it and said nothing more, tacitly agreeing.
Even Hongyun didn't disagree. He might be foolish, but he wasn't foolish enough to refuse something offered to him. Besides healing injuries, the Three Lights Divine Water was also very useful for cultivating his old friend Zhen Yuanzi's ginseng fruit tree.
Yi Shuihan's actions successfully won the favor of Hongyun, Zhen Yuanzi, and Houtu.
The three Qing remained silent, clearly believing that there was no reason to offend Hongyun and the others.
"It's strange, I can't figure out the origin of this fruit."
Zhen Yuanzi spoke up, saying that all the great beings in the prehistoric world knew how to calculate, which was actually obtaining relevant information from the Heavenly Dao. Generally speaking, it was easy to calculate the origin of a treasure, unless someone deliberately concealed it.
"Me too, fellow Daoists Sanqing, do you know the origin of this fruit?"
The Three Pure Ones all shook their heads, clearly unable to calculate it either. Lao Tzu, the one with the highest cultivation, showed a look of surprise for the first time.
Seeing Yi Shuihan's expression without any doubt, Laozi's heart stirred, and he said, "Fellow Daoist Taiyi seems to know the origin of this fruit. Could you tell me a little about it?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes turned to Yi Shuihan, eagerly awaiting his answer.
"This is the Three Lights Vine Fruit, a sacred healing fruit. Its healing effect is even greater than that of the Three Lights Divine Water. One fruit is equivalent to this entire pool of Three Lights Divine Water."
Yi Shuihan only provided the simplest information, and in fact, they could easily deduce these things.
“This Three Lights Vine Fruit is of great use to me. If the three of you are willing to give it up, I am willing to exchange it for some treasures.”
If possible, Yi Shuihan would rather avoid fighting the current Three Pure Ones.
"What treasure would you like to exchange for it?"
At this time, Laozi was still the leader of the Three Pure Ones. When Laozi spoke, Yuanshi and Tongtian remained silent.
The reason Laozi was willing to exchange it was mainly because he learned some basic information about the Three Lights Vine Fruit from Yi Shuihan and believed that Yi Shuihan was not lying. As for the healing elixir, he obviously didn't value it much. If it were a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, he definitely wouldn't have been so easy to talk to.
After Hongjun preached for the second time, he taught the method of severing the three corpses. Severing the three corpses requires a spiritual treasure as a vessel. The stronger the spiritual treasure, the higher the cultivation level of the corpse that is severed, and the greater the help it will be to oneself. There are too many people in the prehistoric world who lack spiritual treasures. Even the Three Pure Ones are lacking them.
Laozi was really willing to exchange, but Yi Shuihan was in a bit of a dilemma. He didn't have many treasures, and not many of them were useful to someone at the Quasi-Saint level.
What do you think of this?
After much deliberation, Yi Shuihan finally produced a ball of light.
"This is......?"
Tongtian and the others stared curiously at the ball of light in Yi Shuihan's hand, finding themselves completely unable to identify what it was, which fueled their renewed curiosity about Yi Shuihan. Since meeting Yi Shuihan, they had been repeatedly rendered ignorant.
"This is a system. You can think of it as a treasure that can assist in cultivation. With the system in my hand, even without cultivation aptitude, reaching the Golden Immortal realm step by step is not a problem."
The Golden Immortals have absolutely no effect on those like the Three Pure Ones, whose cultivation has reached the Quasi-Saint level. But that doesn't mean they don't need it. It will be useful when they train their disciples in the future.
In the present prehistoric world, Great Luo Immortals are everywhere, and Quasi-Saints are the real powerhouses. However, to be honest, there are only a few thousand Great Luo Immortals and Quasi-Saints combined. Golden Immortals are actually considered minor powerhouses, and having a Golden Immortal disciple makes one quite prestigious when going out.
Chapter 1021, A Brand New Method of Cultivation
This system, which can cultivate people to the Golden Immortal level, is also a bit pricey, equivalent to 400 contribution points. Since it's not sold, Yi Shuihan still has to pay for it, leaving him with only 100 contribution points.
However, compared to the value of the Three Light Vine Fruit, these 400 contribution points are just a drop in the ocean, making it an absolutely good deal.
"This thing called a system is unheard of. Is it really as powerful as you say?"
Before Laozi could even speak, Tongtian couldn't help but say that what Yi Shuihan said was simply too amazing.
In the primordial world, cultivation depends on aptitude. Not to mention that the primordial world is still in its early stages and is full of treasures. It is not too difficult to cultivate to the Golden Immortal realm early on. However, aptitude is different. The aptitude required to cultivate to the Golden Immortal realm is extremely high in the entire primordial world and is not easy to find. Otherwise, the Golden Immortal realm would not be considered a minor powerhouse.
The fact that the system could cultivate people to the level of Golden Immortal regardless of their qualifications was something even these Quasi-Saint level experts found hard to believe.
"After the system helps me cultivate to the Golden Immortal level, is it like pulling up seedlings to help them grow, and then there is no more progress?"
Lao Tzu asked the question.
The secret technique of forcibly growing someone to the Golden Immortal realm by overdrawing their potential is rare now, but it does exist. However, beings like Lao Tzu would definitely look down on it.
"Of course not. I can guarantee that as long as you don't do anything reckless and follow the steps, you will eventually become a Golden Immortal with the help of the system. You will not overdraw your potential. On the contrary, you will build a very solid foundation."
Just kidding, if the system relies on overdrawing its potential, then what's the point of the company's existence?
"Big brother, what do you think?"
Seeing Yi Shuihan's confident words, both Tongtian and Yuanshi said that he should make the decision.
Laozi glanced at the system light orb in Yi Shuihan's hand, paused for a moment, and slowly said, "The Three Light Vine Fruit was originally found by Fellow Daoist Taiyi. Since Fellow Daoist needs it, we cannot forcibly take it from you."
The matter was settled, and Yi Shuihan handed over the attribute point allocation system to Laozi.
"This system is called the Attribute Point Allocation System. Its main function is to allocate attribute points. Let me explain what attribute point allocation is..."
The attribute point system has a very simple function: to increase attributes. There are three attributes: Strength, Comprehension, and Spirit. Strength points increase cultivation level, Comprehension points increase comprehension of the Dao, and Spirit points increase willpower. It's simple and straightforward. As long as you have enough attribute points, you can directly and without side effects reach the Golden Immortal level.
The source of attribute points in the attribute point system is very simple: rare and precious materials. Ignoring the function of rare and precious materials, just look at the spiritual energy value that provides them, which is converted into attribute points according to a certain conversion rate.
Even without rare and precious materials, as long as one is a cultivator, the spiritual energy that is automatically converted every day can be turned into attribute points. In this way, even without rare and precious materials, as long as one does not die, one can still eventually become a Golden Immortal by adding attribute points, it just takes a little longer.
After Yi Shuihan finished explaining the functions of the attribute point system, everyone, including Sanqing, Houtu, Hongyun, and Zhenyuanzi, was completely shocked.
A whole new world opened up before them. Cultivation actually had this kind of operation. If they had had such a system before, wouldn't they have been able to easily cultivate to the Golden Immortal realm simply by finding something outside? You have to know that even with their amazing talent and background, it still took them countless eons to cultivate to the Golden Immortal realm.
"This system can only have one master. Once it recognizes a master, it will be bound to that master. When the master dies, the system will be destroyed, and its functions can only be used after it has recognized a master."
Yi Shuihan gave a final reminder.
Once the attribute point system is fully implemented, there won't be a shortage of customers selling the system. I won't even mention Laozi; he only has one disciple. Yuanshi and Tongtian are different, especially Tongtian, who has over ten thousand disciples. At that time, hehe...
"I wonder if Fellow Daoist Taiyi still has any systems. I'd like to exchange a few."
If the system could forcibly increase our understanding, wouldn't it mean that even if we, the Wu clan, were unable to comprehend the Heavenly Dao, we could still gain some understanding of it through the system? Although Golden Immortals are a bit lacking, they can still barely recognize the numbers of Heaven.
Houtu became more and more excited as she thought about it, feeling that the way out for the Wu tribe lay in Yi Shuihan, and her gaze towards Yi Shuihan was extremely fiery.
"Actually, I specialize in selling systems. These systems are not magical artifacts that I crafted, but are provided by the forces behind me. I am just a spokesperson, and I don't have any other systems in stock right now."
The amount of information is quite large. It not only points out that there is a huge force behind Yi Shuihan, but also shows that the system is something that can be mass-produced.
Upon hearing this, all the powerful figures present had their eyes flashing. While they were shocked, they also developed endless curiosity about the power behind Yi Shuihan.
Yi Shuihan's words and actions undoubtedly pointed to a fact that was hard for them to believe at first: Yi Shuihan and the forces behind him were not from the Primordial World.
The primordial world was created by the great god Pangu. Since the great god Pangu could create the world, it is understandable that other beings could have created the world as well. Therefore, Laozi and his people could accept the existence of other worlds similar to the primordial continent.
"Once I have stocked up, I will naturally notify all fellow Daoists to buy the system. I hope you will all support me then."
"sure."
"I, Hongyun, will buy a system and play with it when the time comes."
Just when Yi Shuihan thought things would proceed smoothly, the sky suddenly darkened, and then a huge bird, thousands of miles long, appeared in the air, making a strange cry.
"Yes, Kunpeng!"
Hongyun revealed the identity of the visitor.
Kunpeng was also a powerful figure who once managed to snatch a seat in Zixiao Palace, but ultimately failed to retain it.
"Haha, fellow Daoists, how are you?"
Amidst the loud laughter, Kunpeng appeared in the valley, its gaze filled with greed as it looked at the small pool of the Three Lights Divine Water.
"Everyone who sees the treasure gets a share. Fellow Daoists, would you mind if I took a share?"
That matter-of-fact attitude made Yi Shuihan frown slightly; this attitude was a bit arrogant!
"Kunpeng, you're too late. This place was discovered by Fellow Daoist Taiyi. We've reached an agreement that all the fruits will belong to him, and we'll each take a share of the Three Lights Divine Water. There's nothing for you."
Hongyun spoke very directly, completely unaware that what he said was very offensive.
Chapter 1022, The System Master Must Not Be Humiliated
Zhen Yuanzi wanted to remind his old friend, but since he had already offended Kunpeng, and Hongyun probably wouldn't care even if he said something, he didn't say anything. He just secretly decided to pay more attention to Kunpeng's situation in the future so that Hongyun wouldn't suffer any losses.
Hearing Hongyun's words, Kunpeng was indeed very angry. What do you mean I'm late? I arrived just in time. You say the allocation is done and then it's done? Now that I, Kunpeng, am here, the previous allocation plan must be redone.
Taiyi, that must be referring to this kid.
Huh? He actually has the cultivation of a quasi-saint. No wonder he's qualified to participate in the allocation. The Three Pure Ones seem to have tacitly agreed with Hongyun's statement. There's something fishy going on here!
Kunpeng was still self-aware. If the person who found him here was not Taiyi but the Three Pure Ones, he would accept not getting a share. However, now that it was Yi Shuihan, it was different. Judging from Hongyun's tone, everyone present had a share, and Kunpeng could not be outdone by Hongyun.
"Fellow Daoist Taiyi, I've come all this way with great difficulty. You wouldn't let me leave empty-handed, would you?"
Kunpeng's tone was unfriendly, carrying a subtle threat.
Even Kunpeng himself didn't realize that although it was the first time he had seen Yi Shuihan, he inexplicably felt hostile towards her and felt uncomfortable just looking at her.
This is the work of Heaven. In fact, if it weren't for Heaven, Kunpeng wouldn't have happened to arrive here at this time.
"What should I do? Going head-on with Kunpeng would be too much pressure, but backing down like this is definitely not my style."
If it weren't for the Heavenly Dao watching over him, Yi Shuihan would have definitely confronted them without hesitation. However, with the Heavenly Dao present, Yi Shuihan was dealing with more than just a Kunpeng.
"Ding, a system task release scenario has been detected. Task release in progress."
Task Name: The System Master Must Not Be Humiliated
Task Description: As the host of the Myriad Realms Skill System, you must be domineering and arrogant. So what if it's the Heavenly Dao? You will never bow down. Considering that the host's strength is insufficient to face the Heavenly Dao, you will have to take a step back and deal with the Kunpeng, the lackey that the Heavenly Dao has sent.
Mission Reward: Shielded from the suppression of Heaven's Dao, allowing you to unleash your normal strength in the Primordial World.
"
"Well done, system! Just when I was about to doze off, someone delivered a pillow for me!" Yi Shuihan laughed. "The system supports me, what else is there to say? Kunpeng, is it? Today, I'll let you announce my arrival."
His gaze sharpened, and Yi Shuihan said calmly to Kunpeng, "Get lost! Get as far away as you can."
The Three Pure Ones were dumbfounded, Hongyun was dumbfounded, Zhenyuanzi and Houtu were dumbfounded, and Kunpeng, the person involved, was even more dumbfounded.
Previously, Yi Shuihan gave the Three Pure Ones a very gentle and friendly impression, but now his demeanor has changed, becoming strong and domineering. Even though they look down on Kunpeng, they would never speak so harshly to him, after all, Kunpeng's strength is undeniable.
"Fine, fine, fine." Kunpeng laughed in extreme anger, his hostility towards Yi Shuihan instantly reaching its peak. If he didn't teach Yi Shuihan a lesson today, how would he survive in the prehistoric world in the future?
"Do you dare to fight in the void?"
As Kunpeng spoke, he stood in the void. He was not afraid that Yi Shuihan would not accept the challenge, unless Yi Shuihan did not want the opportunity in the valley.
"Why don't you dare."
Without hesitation, he unleashed his full power, with the enhancements from the Four Divine Beasts silently amplifying his aura, which reached the peak of Quasi-Saint in the Primordial World.
"So powerful! This fellow Daoist Taiyi's strength is probably even above that of Kunpeng."
Tongtian watched with excitement as Yi Shuihan and Kunpeng were about to engage in a fierce battle in the void. As a warmonger, he couldn't wait to join in.
"Let me see how strong the people from beyond the primordial world are."
Laozi stared intently at Yi Shuihan, as if trying to see right through him.
Kunpeng looked at the menacing Yi Shuihan and felt a sense of unease. He had only recently broken through to the Quasi-Saint level, and due to poverty, the corpse he had created was not strong enough to participate in a battle of this level.
A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes. At this point, Kunpeng had no choice but to fight. As Kunpeng, his speed was among the best in the entire prehistoric world. Even if he couldn't win, he could retreat with ease.
