Fireworkers are Taoist priests in Taoist temples who are responsible for miscellaneous tasks. They do all sorts of rough and heavy work!

During the great calamity of Journey to the West, the Heavenly Court's Kui Mulang Star Lord descended to the mortal realm without permission and had an affair with a female immortal in the Pixiang Palace!

After this ordeal, Kui Mulang was punished by the Jade Emperor to serve as a fire-tender for Laozi for a few days. None of the immortals in the Heavenly Court objected to this outcome.

All the immortals in Heaven knew that tending the fire for Laozi was not a good job; it was a thankless and arduous task, and was essentially a punishment.

Now that the Sage Taiqing has begun refining elixirs, he is still lacking a Taoist priest specializing in fire-making. Just at this opportune moment, Xin Huan caught the Sage Taiqing's eye and was chosen by him!

For cultivators, a Nine-Turn Golden Pill is equivalent to a Great Luo Golden Immortal, or even a Great Luo Golden Immortal Dao Fruit. The cause and effect involved are immense.

After Xin Huan agreed to this matter, the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect owed him a debt of karma. If it was not settled in time, it was feared that it would cause great repercussions in the future.

Now, the Twelve Golden Immortals have generously given away magical treasures and acquired spiritual roots, thus completing this beautiful story and settling the cause and effect of this matter.

"Xin Huan Tong'er!"

"The teacher summons you; come immediately!"

Xuan Du Daoist led the green ox with the nose ring to the outside of the reed hut. Before leaving, he spoke to Xin Huan again.

"Grandmaster, Master!"

"To all my fellow disciples and elders present, now that the Master has summoned me, I shall take my leave!"

Xin Huan bowed deeply again, then followed Master Xuandu and rode the clouds away from the old land of Xiqi.

The Eight Views Palace, where the Sage of Taiqing resides, is located in the Xuandu Cave of the Great Luo Heaven. To reach this place, one must traverse the Thirty-Three Heavens.

There are thirty-six heavens in the primordial world, each of which is a vast world. To reach the thirty-sixth heaven, one must traverse the Nine Heavens Gale to reach the outer heavens.

The group rode on clouds and flew towards the primordial heaven. Along the way, they flew like lightning, and in just a moment, they had traversed billions of miles of rivers and mountains.

"These fierce winds from the Nine Heavens are extremely harsh; only cultivators who have achieved the true path of immortality can withstand them."

"No wonder the Heavenly Court is lacking in talent. If they can't even withstand the fierce winds of the Nine Heavens, how can they be expected to serve as officials in Heaven!"

Xin Huan, wielding his Wind and Fire Wings, followed behind Xuan Du Daoist, together with the others, traversing the fierce winds and reaching the heavens.

"The Primordial Heaven has thirty-six heavens; the higher you go, the stronger the pressure and the fiercer the winds!"

"Only when mortal cultivators break through to the Celestial Immortal realm can they disregard the world's barriers and ascend to the Heavenly Realm."

"Unless one's cultivation is perfect, it is very difficult for cultivators with lower levels of cultivation to enter the Primordial Heaven Realm."

"As long as cultivators have their immortal records inscribed in the Heavenly Court, they can receive the guiding immortal light, which will protect them as they ascend to the Primordial Heavenly Realm and easily enter the Southern Heavenly Gate."

The Taoist Xuandu spoke, saying that the original Dao contained such a treasure, a special passage opened specifically for those earth immortals residing in the world and those who were immortals of the Dao.

"The Jade Emperor governs the Thirty-Three Heavens of the Primordial Heaven, and under his jurisdiction lies the Primordial Earth and the endless Netherworld!"

"Above the Thirty-Three Heavens is the Great Luo Heaven, and the three heavens within this are the Outer Heavens, the abode of the Xuanmen."

As he walked, the Taoist Xuandu didn't forget to say something.

"The Jade Emperor is the supreme ruler of the Three Realms; his position is incomparably revered and should not be treated with disrespect!"

The great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods occurred because the disciples of the three religions disrespected the Jade Emperor, which triggered a massacre of the gods.

Xuan Du Daoist's actions also served as a warning.

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Uncle Xuandu!"

Xin Huan immediately spoke up, indicating that she had learned something.

Although Xin Huan was a disciple of the Xuanmen sect, Yun Zhongzi had always left him to his own devices and had not explained the secrets behind it.

Xin Huan only had a vague understanding of the Central Heavenly Realm of the Primordial World. Although she knew that the Heavenly Court existed, she had never seen it with her own eyes.

"The master's purpose in coming here is to refine elixirs, to help his disciple complete his cultivation, and also to help him escape his predicament!"

"Although you are a Taoist practitioner specializing in fire-making, I observe that you also possess considerable knowledge of Taoist alchemy. If you carefully comprehend the intricacies of it, you might unexpectedly gain something from it."

Xuan Du Daoist smiled and spoke. As the senior disciple of the Human Sect, his cultivation had already broken through to the Quasi-Saint level. Now that he had severed his two corpses, his cultivation was comparable to that of Ran Deng.

Xin Huan took Xuan Du Daoist's advice to heart, and the three of them flew upwards, crossing the Thirty-Three Heavens before arriving at the Outer Heaven.

Great Luo Heaven, Xuandu Cave!

"This is my teacher's residence, and I sometimes stay here in my spare time. However, most of the time, I spend my time meditating and seeking enlightenment in the Taoist temple on Shouyang Mountain!"

"Nephew Xin Huan, please follow me inside!"

Xuan Du Daoist immediately entered the cave, which was the Eight Views Palace, the residence of the Supreme Saint.

"Xin Huan Tong'er!"

"Start the furnace to refine elixirs!"

With a soft shout, the Sage Taiqing sent three purple flames flying out of the Eight Views Palace and into the Innate Eight Trigrams Furnace, where they formed a raging inferno.

"A supreme innate spiritual treasure—the Eight Trigrams Furnace!"

"Truly worthy of being called the Sage of Taiqing!"

"The lamp used to start the fire is the Eight Scenery Palace Lamp, one of the Four Great Spiritual Lamps, and is ranked as a top-grade innate spiritual treasure!"

"The flames used in alchemy are also innate divine fire!"

"The flames used in alchemy are also innate divine fire!"

"The alchemy furnace before us is actually a top-grade innate spiritual treasure; its foundation is truly extraordinary!"

The Bagua Furnace is divided into eight trigrams: Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, and Dui. Fire enters from the Li position and wind exits from the Xun position, containing endless variations.

"Grandmaster, how should I control this?"

Xin Huan looked at the Sage Taiqing and asked softly.

"You should heat up the stove first!"

"In a moment, you shall hold these two fans. When I ask you to fan yourself, you shall activate this green fan!"

"When I tell you to add fuel to the fire, just fan this red fan, and I will control the heat of the alchemy!"

The Sage of Taiqing handed over two banana leaf fans, one green and one red. The green one was a fan, and the red one was a fire fan!

Both of these items are top-grade innate spiritual treasures, treasures collected by the Taiqing Sect, used for alchemy.

"The Four Symbols Banana Leaf Fan?"

Xin Huan looked at the banana leaf fan in the hands of the Sage of Taiqing and immediately called out the name of this treasure.

Nothing more!

This is because the Primordial Four Symbols Treasure Mirror in Xin Huan's hand was born from the same source as this Primordial Four Symbols Banana Tree.

Each person possesses an innate spiritual root, and their destiny is unique!

The Heavenly Dao is fifty, but one escapes. Almost every innate spiritual root will encounter human tribulations before it takes human form!

The Western saints, Zhunti and Jieyin, are respectively the innate spiritual root Bodhi tree and the primordial golden lotus.

The two depended on each other, which allowed them to avoid the tribulation of human transformation, be born into the world, and attain the Great Dao of Primordial Chaos.

Besides these two, in the primordial world, there was also Zhen Yuanzi, the spirit of the ginseng fruit tree, who successfully avoided the tribulation of human transformation and became the ancestor of earth immortals.

Originally, the Hunyuan Banana Tree might have successfully transformed into a human, but unfortunately, it did not survive the great calamity.

Its four leaves were obtained by a great supernatural being and were later refined into four superior innate spiritual treasures.

The two banana leaf fans in the hands of the Sage of Taiqing correspond precisely to the wind and fire origins of the Hunyuan Four Symbols Banana Leaf.

The Primordial Four Symbols Banana Tree lost its innate origin and was completely cut off from creation. Its natal spiritual treasure, the Primordial Four Symbols Treasure Mirror, eventually came into the hands of Xin Huan.

"I didn't expect you to have such a good eye!"

"In the beginning, when chaos first separated and heaven and earth were created, Mount Buzhou nurtured countless creations. On it lay a primordial spiritual root called the Primordial Four Symbols Banana Tree!"

"When I was traveling down the mountain, I came to the foot of Buzhou Mountain and saw two leaves on a banana tree. I picked them and refined them into these two spiritual treasures!"

"As far as I know, this Four Symbols Banana has four banana leaves, representing the four elements of earth, water, wind, and fire."

"The water-attribute banana leaf fan fell into the hands of Daoist Styx, while the earth-attribute banana leaf fan fell into the hands of the Great Immortal Barefoot Immortal of the Lower Realm."

"The banana leaf fan in my hand possesses the attributes of wind and fire, and to be precise, it has a deep connection with you!"

Thinking of this, Taiqing smiled and said again.

(Wishing everyone a successful Year of the Horse!)
