Chapter 154 Enlightenment Tea Tree
Chapter 154 Enlightenment Tea Tree
In the Wuyi Mountains, Tongtian found the Enlightenment Tea Tree. The Enlightenment Tea Tree was indeed a fine innate spiritual root, well hidden. If it weren't for the location being pointed out in the Book of Destiny, it would probably be difficult for others to find it.
Although others couldn't discover it, someone did notice its existence: Xiao Sheng, a rogue cultivator practicing in Wuyi Mountain, possessed a treasure—a top-grade innate spiritual treasure called the Treasure-Falling Coin.
According to the Book of Destiny, this Xiao Sheng was using the Fixed Coin to deal with the disciples of the Jie Sect. Since we've encountered him, well, I'm sorry to say.
With a wave of his hand, Tongtian sent Xiao Sheng into reincarnation, taking the Treasure Coin and the Enlightenment Tea Tree with him.
Tongtian returned to Zhou Yongcheng's cultivation space and gave him the Enlightenment Tea Tree and the Treasure-Falling Coin.
Zhou Yongcheng examined the Treasure-Falling Coin in his hand and said with a smile, "This Treasure-Falling Coin is the first coin in the world. If someone takes it to the Shang Dynasty and issues coins in its shape, allowing all the races of the prehistoric world to circulate this currency, they will surely receive good fortune and merit."
Tongtian was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected the Treasure-Dropping Coin to have such an effect. He said, "I read in the Book of Destiny that Zhao Gongming later became the God of Wealth. If he were to do this, he would surely reap some rewards. Young friend, how about I exchange two top-grade innate spiritual treasures for this Treasure-Dropping Coin?"
Zhou Yongcheng said with a smile, "This Treasure-Dropping Coin originally belonged to the sect leader, so there's no question of exchanging it."
In the world of Investiture of the Gods, Tongtian was a decent person. When he suddenly appeared in his Biyou Palace, he didn't kill him immediately, but instead let him listen to the Dao, which was already quite good.
If it were Yuanshi, and Zhou Yongcheng suddenly appeared in his palace, he probably wouldn't even have the chance to reincarnate, let alone hear the Dao.
Yuanshi was a typical high-ranking person who looked down on the lower-ranking people. He said that those who wore fur and horns, and those born from moisture and eggs, were not worthy of becoming immortals and attaining the Dao. He only looked up to those noble innate gods. He didn't even think much of the yellow dragon in his sect. It can be seen how high his standards were.
When Tongtian saw that Zhou Yongcheng liked to drink tea, he personally went to get the Enlightenment Tea Tree and gave it to him. How could Zhou Yongcheng have the nerve to ask Tongtian for anything?
“I said I’d give it to you, so it’s yours. I see that the Taoist robe you’re wearing isn’t even a proper acquired spiritual treasure. All I’m giving you is a Taoist robe and a sword.”
After Tongtian finished speaking, he took out a Taoist robe and a sword.
Zhou Yongcheng couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to accept it.
Having obtained the treasures of the Tongtian Sect Master, he has now upgraded from a ragtag weapon to a powerful one. He used to possess spiritual artifacts, then picked up several immortal artifacts, and now he has actually obtained an innate spiritual treasure.
"The cult leader must have something to discuss with me, right?" Zhou Yongcheng asked. Tongtian's appearance at this time must mean something.
"It's about Duobao. I found a holy thought in his dantian. That holy thought must belong to the two Western Saints. They are secretly instilling the scriptures of the Western religion into Duobao."
"That's definitely the style of the two Western Saints. They like to do things in the dark. So what does the leader mean?"
"Since you come from the future, you must have Buddhist scriptures. Since Duobao was favored by the two Western Saints and became the leader of Buddhism, it means that Duobao is definitely more capable in Buddhism than in immortality. I plan to have Duobao switch to Buddhism and establish Eastern Buddhism."
"There are indeed many Buddhist scriptures. I will go back later and bring them all over soon."
"Thank you, little friend."
"You're too kind, Master."
Tongtian did not linger and left Zhou Yongcheng's cultivation space.
Zhou Yongcheng returned to the real world and had the Red Queen download all the Buddhist scriptures.
Zhou Yongcheng could memorize the entire text after reading it only once, and then he could use his supernatural powers to condense the scriptures.
The previous Investiture of the Gods was created using supernatural powers to create things out of thin air.
Upon arriving in the world of Investiture of the Gods, Zhou Yongcheng used his supernatural powers to create all the scriptures, piling them up in huge quantities. The characters on the books were a special kind of symbol, which could be called Daoist script. Once one cultivated to a certain level and comprehended the laws, one would understand this script.
After taking out all the Buddhist scriptures, Zhou Yongcheng took out the Innate Spiritual Root Enlightenment Tea Tree. The tea leaves of the Enlightenment Tea Tree are very special. They have some natural patterns on them, which are somewhat like Taoist script, but also have other things. They are very magical patterns.
Enlightenment Tea has little effect on the Tongtian Sect Leader who has attained sainthood, since their understanding of the laws is so profound that they no longer need Enlightenment Tea to assist in cultivation. Of course, it can still be used to brew tea.
But the Enlightenment Tea had a significant effect on Zhou Yongcheng. He picked a tea leaf, put it in his mouth, and began to cultivate.
Zhou Yongcheng entered a meditative state, and he felt that the laws of heaven and earth were very clear, making them much easier to comprehend.
Since the Heavenly Origin Scripture that Zhou Yongcheng cultivated had no attributes, the laws that Zhou Yongcheng comprehended were also not fixed. He believed that no matter what he did, the foundation was the most important, so he started to comprehend the basic laws, namely metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Tongtian returned to his cultivation place and summoned Zhao Gongming.
"I've met Master."
"I have something for you to do. I have something here called the Falling Treasure Coin, which I will give to you today. Take it and some helpers to the Shang Dynasty and mint a large number of coins in its likeness. You must make these coins circulate among all the races of the prehistoric world and have them use your coins for trade. While doing this, don't neglect your cultivation."
"Disciple will obey Master's orders."
Zhao Gongming accepted the Treasure-Dropping Coin from the Tongtian Sect Leader. To his surprise, the Treasure-Dropping Coin was actually a top-grade innate spiritual treasure.
Back at his cultivation grounds, Zhao Gongming began refining the Treasure-Falling Coin. Even a top-grade innate spiritual treasure cannot be refined in a short time; he was only conducting the initial refining.
He pondered the task his master had given him. This matter was definitely not as simple as his master made it out to be; otherwise, he wouldn't have asked him to do it. There must be something hidden that he didn't know, which his master simply hadn't told him.
Zhao Gongming pondered who to take to the Shang Dynasty to accomplish this task. It would certainly be difficult to get all the races of the prehistoric world to use this kind of currency, so he decided to take his three younger sisters.
So Zhao Gongming called his three younger sisters and headed towards the Shang Dynasty.
After Zhao Gongming left, Tongtian summoned the traitor mentioned in the Book of Destiny, Chang'er Dingguangxian.
When Chang'er Dingguang Xian came in and met Tongtian, Tongtian scanned him with his divine sense and found nothing unusual. He also searched his Purple Mansion and found nothing unusual. So it seems that his later defection was also a spur-of-the-moment decision. He may have realized that the Jie Sect was about to be destroyed, so he turned to the Chan Sect and later went to the Western Sect.
When Chang Er Ding Guang Xian saw that Tong Tian Jiao Zhu did not speak, he felt a little uneasy. He did not know why Tong Tian had summoned him, and Tong Tian's silence made him feel uncertain.
Tongtian was thinking about how to deal with this guy. If he killed him, he hadn't betrayed the sect yet. If he didn't kill him, he was afraid that he would suddenly betray the sect like what was described in the Book of Destiny.
After thinking about it, I decided not to deal with this guy for now and wait and see. Now that we know their nature, we can just keep an eye on them from time to time.
