Primordial possesses profound skills and great strength. Even though he has not yet attained sainthood and his cultivation is at the high level of Great Luo Golden Immortal, it is enough for him to feel confident and proud. At this moment, the world has just begun to take shape, and most of the immortals in Primordial are still at the level of Great Luo Golden Immortal or below. Hongjun has not yet become a saint, and the first sermon at Purple Cloud Palace has not yet begun. The immortals of Primordial are still in the stage of exploring Dao Law, and the glorious era where Quasi-Saint roam freely and Golden Immortals are as common as dogs has yet to arrive.
At this time, the entire environment of Primordial is such that most immortals are at the level of Great Luo Golden Immortal. Among the top-tier strong beings in Primordial, there are differences in strength, but they are not too significant. It is like a group of children who have not yet entered school; although their innate talents create slight differences in knowledge and ability, they have not yet developed a large gap.
Once the teachings at Purple Cloud Palace begin, when Hongjun Daoist imparts wisdom to the immortals of Primordial, that will be the true moment when gaps widen. With guidance from a renowned master, diligent disciples like Min'er will naturally make rapid progress, becoming incomparable to their former selves. Those with dull talents and weak wills will be left far behind. Even among those prodigies, there will be distinctions in strength.
In summary, at this moment, Primordial, who is at the high level of Great Luo Golden Immortal, belongs to the top tier of strong beings in Primordial. For Ye Chuanze, who has not yet taken on human form, he naturally looks down upon him and does not regard him highly. Primordial is proud and critical, making it difficult for ordinary people to catch his eye. Throughout all of Primordial, aside from his brother Laozi and his brother Sky-Connecting, it seems that no one else can attract his attention. Such individuals likely believe themselves to be unparalleled in heaven and earth, exuding extreme confidence and pride.
Primordial wields a spear with three prongs and two edges, its silver body gleaming with a cold light. Standing with the spear in hand, he has black hair and wears white robes; his handsome face bears an expression of cold solemnity, surrounded by an aura of chilling energy that resembles a god of slaughter. Clearly, Ye Chuanze's earlier provocation has angered him.
The enemy does not move; I do not move. Ye Chuanze understands his weaknesses and strengths well; he will never take the initiative to attack Primordial. His disadvantage lies in his insufficient offensive capability. As an unformed being, Ye Chuanze cannot match Primordial's agility or speed; if a fight were to break out, he would gain no advantage whatsoever. Often, before he even touches Primordial, he would find himself evaded, making his disadvantage evident. However, similarly, Ye Chuanze also possesses clear advantages.
Ye Chuanze's true form is the Twelfth-Grade Annihilation Black Lotus, boasting perfect and impenetrable defense. Even the awe-inspiring Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Tribulation cannot harm him; how could it affect Primordial? Moreover, lacking a human form means he will not suffer damage; he fights without consuming any mana or stamina. In contrast, Primordial possesses *; although his movements are swift and varied in technique—making him hard to defend against—this also means he expends considerable stamina and mana, risking injury and bloodshed.
From the very beginning, Ye Chuanze calculated all this. His strategy is to engage in a war of attrition, depleting Primordial's stamina and mana until he can strike decisively during a moment of weakness to secure victory. Even if Primordial proves more formidable than anticipated and he cannot defeat him, at least he will not lose. When facing someone as proud as Primordial, simply avoiding defeat counts as a win.
With a flick of his wrist, Primordial swings his spear, unleashing powerful gusts of air that swirl into a windstorm. The spear carries sharp cutting force as it pierces through the air with piercing shrieks towards Ye Chuanze.
The massive Twelfth-Grade Annihilation Black Lotus hovers silently in mid-air, unmoving like a mountain, radiating purple-black light that flickers ominously. The intertwining purple-black rays form an impenetrable defensive barrier.
This strike from Primordial was halted by the purple-black barrier. His expression showed slight surprise; in that brief moment of contemplation, he understood why this was so. He recalled the awe-inspiring spectacle of the past—the earth-shattering Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Tribulation—and realized that with his current cultivation level, he could not breach the defense of this Twelfth-Grade Annihilation Black Lotus, nor could he inflict harm upon it.
Primordial has never been one to stubbornly cling on; upon realizing he could not break through Ye Chuanze's defense, he immediately withdrew his hand and returned to his original position. He gazed calmly at the glowing purple-black light emanating from the Twelfth-Grade Annihilation Black Lotus, his voice as cold as frost without a hint of emotion: "I have not lost; you have not won. However, I acknowledge you; you should possess qualifications equal to ours."
Upon hearing this, Ye Chuanze immediately understood his meaning. This person cannot let go of his pride and does not wish to apologize! Yet within those words lies recognition for him. Not one to miss an opportunity for tactfulness, Ye Chuanze accepted gracefully and replied lightly: "Thank you for your kindness!"
Primordial heard this and slightly turned his head, unwilling to look at Ye Chuanze again, but he did not speak up to retort him.
Seeing this, Ye Chuanze couldn't help but chuckle. This future Sage seemed to have an insincere temper, unexpectedly awkward and uncommunicative.
Primordial returned to the side of Laozi and Sky-Connecting. Laozi remained unchanged, still looking calm and composed, while Sky-Connecting, dressed in black, appeared quite amused and asked, "Second Brother, how do you feel?"
Primordial cast a faint glance at him and quietly uttered, "Feeling itchy?"
Upon hearing this, Sky-Connecting immediately fell silent. He knew his second brother was feeling displeased! He thought to himself, tsk... what a sore loser!
"Three days without a beating makes the house fall apart. What do you think, Sky-Connecting?" Primordial said casually, as if it were unintentional.
"…What Second Brother said is very true!"
*******
The Three Pure Ones have always been closely connected. Since Primordial spoke up in favor of Ye Chuanze, it represented the opinions of Laozi and Sky-Connecting. Fuxi and Nüwa had stood by Ye Chuanze from the beginning, which meant that among the eight immortals present, aside from the opposing Minghe Old Ancestor and the yet-to-express opinions of Di Jun and Taiyi, five people already recognized that Ye Chuanze had the right to share a piece of the Banana Leaf.
Seeing that Primordial had turned against him, Minghe Old Ancestor immediately felt dissatisfied and coldly snorted, "The opinion of one person cannot represent us all." Implicitly, he still insisted on his view, opposing Ye Chuanze's right to share in the Banana Leaf.
Hearing this, Fuxi gently replied, "Friend of the Underworld River, your opinion alone cannot represent everyone."
Inside the Twelfth-Grade Annihilation Black Lotus, the soul state of Ye Chuanze curled his lips into a very malicious smile and mockingly said, "Minghe Old Ancestor, do you really think your opinion alone can sway everyone here? I think you... are getting old and confused! If your mind is unclear, go home early to wash up and sleep; don't embarrass yourself here!" Even a clay figurine has its temper; it was strange for Ye Chuanze to endure such provocations from Minghe Old Ancestor repeatedly.
"You... cease your wild talk!" The color on Minghe Old Ancestor's face turned red from being ridiculed by Ye Chuanze, but he couldn't find any words to refute him at the moment; he had always been tongue-tied. After calming down a bit, Minghe Old Ancestor began searching for allies. He turned to the previously silent Di Jun and Taiyi, saying, "I wonder what you two friends think?"
Upon hearing this, Di Jun's expression was unreadable, but he was calculating in his heart. Among all the immortals present, only he, Taiyi, and Fuxi, along with Nüwa were all part of the demon clan. It seemed that Ye Chuanze also identified himself with the demon clan. The Three Pure Ones claimed to be the orthodox heirs of Pangu, holding themselves in high regard. Meanwhile, Minghe Old Ancestor also elevated his status high above others with an air of superiority. From any perspective, both Di Jun and Taiyi should be closer to Fuxi, Nüwa, and Ye Chuanze, after all, they were of the same kin.
Moreover, Fuxi and Nuwa are both quite powerful, and although Ye Chuanze has not yet transformed, he is not to be underestimated; he can be considered a potential asset. It would be more beneficial to maintain close relations with them. Di Jun has always been ambitious, with many thoughts swirling in his mind. After careful consideration, Di Jun came up with a plan. There was no need to offend these three for the sake of a mere Spiritual Treasure, so he said, "Since the Three Pure Ones and my friends Fuxi and Nuwa have already made up their minds, Taiyi and I will naturally follow the majority and share the same opinion as them."
"Di Jun! You... you truly are not simple!" Hearing an answer that completely caught him off guard, Minghe Old Ancestor couldn't help but shout angrily.
Upon hearing this, Taiyi frowned and spoke up, "Friend Underworld River, please be cautious with your words!" After a pause, he continued, "My bond with my brother is deep; we are like one person. If my brother obtains the Primordial Banana Leaf, then I have obtained it as well. Taiyi is willing to withdraw from this competition; may all friends choose harmony."
Taiyi's words were unexpected, leaving Minghe Old Ancestor momentarily stunned and speechless. Even the Three Pure Ones, Fuxi, and Nuwa showed expressions of surprise; they did not expect him to act this way. However, Ye Chuanze and Di Jun were not particularly surprised.
Ye Chuanze quickly recognized that Taiyi's nature is calm and uncontentious; he does not have a strong obsession with Spiritual Treasures. Perhaps this is related to his possession of the Chaos Supreme Treasure, the Eastern Emperor Bell. Since the Eastern Emperor Bell is referred to as a Chaos Supreme Treasure, it is naturally extraordinary. With such an exceptional treasure in hand, it is understandable that Taiyi would look down upon other Spiritual Treasures. Furthermore, while Di Jun's previous remarks seemed flawless and without loopholes, they had offended Minghe Old Ancestor.
Among those present, the Three Pure Ones formed one faction; Fuxi, Nuwa, and Ye Chuanze formed another; Di Jun and Taiyi were allied; only Minghe Old Ancestor stood alone. This was also why Minghe Old Ancestor insisted on opposing Ye Chuanze's claim to a share of the Banana Leaf—Minghe Old Ancestor was isolated and at a disadvantage. If Ye Chuanze were to obtain a piece of leaf, Minghe Old Ancestor's chances of getting any Banana Leaf would diminish even further.
Originally, Minghe Old Ancestor intended to win over Di Jun and Taiyi to strengthen his position but did not expect Di Jun to respond this way. Not only did Di Jun not side with Minghe Old Ancestor but he also clearly stated his position alongside the Three Pure Ones, Fuxi, and Nuwa. How could this not leave a grudge in Minghe Old Ancestor's heart? If in the end Minghe Old Ancestor were to successfully obtain a piece of Banana Leaf, that would be fine; if not... it was likely that enmity would ensue.
Thus, Taiyi made this statement; he relinquished his right to a piece of Banana Leaf in exchange for Di Jun obtaining one. This way, there would naturally be no objections from those present. Moreover, if he did this...
"I am also willing to withdraw from this competition," Primordial's cold voice rang out.
Hearing this, Taiyi smiled slightly at the expected response.
With Taiyi and Primordial both withdrawing, only seven individuals remained present—including Ye Chuanze —while the Primordial Banana Tree had exactly seven leaves.
Seeing this situation unfold, Minghe Old Ancestor had no choice but to accept it and ceased his opposition. Regardless of how the final distribution turned out, he could only obtain one leaf anyway. Since he had now achieved his goal of securing a Banana Leaf for himself, why should he complicate matters further?
The group divided the Primordial Banana Tree among themselves and departed.
Ye Chuanze put away his piece of Banana Leaf with a satisfied expression and sighed as he said, "Whether it's Di Jun or Taiyi or even the Three Pure Ones, they all share such deep brotherly bonds! It's truly admirable!"
