Primordial Era: I, the Lamp Burner, intercept the Western opportunity at the outset.

Most of the people present were not taking ginseng fruit for the first time, and they all circulated their respective inherited cultivation techniques to digest the medicinal power of the spiritual fruit.

Seeing this, Randeng also began to cultivate. The battle with Taiyi earlier had caused the space within a radius of 100,000 miles to shatter, and the earth, water, wind, and fire to surge, recreating a part of the scene of creation. This had deepened Randeng's understanding of the law of annihilation.

The original 51% comprehension of the laws has been further improved to 53%. The mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal requires a 60% comprehension of the laws. At this time, one can also choose another law to cultivate simultaneously, so that they can complement each other and make faster progress on the path of cultivation, thus preparing for the formation of the prototype of the Great Dao.

In less than a thousand years, everyone awoke from their meditation one after another, their auras having improved compared to before. Among them, Tongtian was the most remarkable, and Randeng guessed that he would be able to condense the Great Luo Dao Fruit in the next step.

Zhen Yuanzi, as the host of the banquet, spoke first.

"Congratulations to all fellow Daoists on your progress in the Dao. This is a good opportunity to exchange ideas, verify your understanding, and take another step forward."

The group of innate deities nodded in agreement. This was one of the reasons they attended the Ginseng Fruit Gathering. They believed that they could not cultivate the Great Dao by closing themselves off and focusing on cultivation.

To reach the Great Luo Realm of Primordial Chaos, one needs to comprehend a Great Dao, which naturally requires more than one law. Absorbing others' insights into the laws is also helpful in determining the direction of one's own Great Dao.

Immediately, Ran Deng saw Zhen Yuanzi wave his sleeve, and an ancient tree appeared in the center of the cave. Its trunk was like a piece of ancient jade, its leaves were like emerald clouds, and the earth element swirled around it. Thirty-six spiritual lights were hidden among the branches and leaves.

"Let me explain to the fellow Daoists who are here for the first time. I am holding this Ginseng Fruit Conference for two reasons. First, to provide a venue for fellow Daoists to exchange ideas and discuss the Dao. Second, my Ginseng Fruit Tree needs to absorb the Daoist essence of the laws before it blooms each time, so that the Herb Rejuvenation Pill it produces will be better."

Ran Deng suddenly realized that he had been wondering why Zhen Yuanzi would bring out the fruits of the ten spiritual roots to entertain everyone. It turned out that the money came from the people.

Tongtian transmitted his voice to Randeng, his expression mysterious, "Fellow Daoist, there is actually another way to explain this discussion of the Dao."

"Oh? Isn't it just explaining the laws one cultivates and generating Daoist energy for the ginseng fruit tree to absorb?"

Ran Deng was curious, wondering what other twists and turns lay inside.

"Fellow Daoist, you may not know this, but the number of flowers that the Ginseng Fruit Tree will bloom varies depending on each person's level of comprehension of the Dao principles. The one who wins first place will receive an additional three Ginseng Fruits."

Tongtian changed the subject, "However, the most crucial thing is the title of first place. The first two times it was the eldest brother, but this time with Fellow Daoist Randeng involved, things will change."

Randeng understood the unspoken meaning in Tongtian's words: in the primordial world, fortune was not something ethereal, but something that could actually help with cultivation.

Apart from Ice Soul Daoist and Mountain Suppressor Daoist, all the innate saints present were destined to become great figures in the future. Among them, there were four disciples of the future Dao Ancestor, in addition to Burning Lamp, and the rest would also become renowned in the future.

Holding the title of number one for a long time, with the added advantage of good fortune, will only widen the gap between you and others.

Just as the Supreme Lord in later generations was undoubtedly the number one among the three thousand guests of Zixiao Palace.

But Dipankara was more interested in the three extra ginseng fruits, which he could take back for Cundi and Jieyin to try, as a way of praising them for guarding the West.

As for the title of number one, Randeng said that no matter how strong Taishang is, he can only be his junior brother in the future.

The discussion of the Dao began quickly, starting with the Ice Soul Daoist, who was seated at the end of the table. A crystal-clear jade needle appeared between her brows. The moment it appeared, the surrounding temperature plummeted, and even the primordial spirit could faintly feel the chill. She was using her innate spiritual treasure to expound the laws.

"I didn't expect that the Ice Soul Daoist had such a profound understanding of the laws of ice."

Ran Deng put away his initial disdain; indeed, there were no truly weaklings among these innate saints.

As the group under the Burning Lamp absorbed and understood the teachings, they also reflected upon their own laws. In an instant, the area beneath the Ginseng Fruit Tree was filled with immortal energy, surrounded by laws, ethereal Daoist charm, and various extraordinary phenomena.

The thirty-six nodes on the ginseng fruit tree continuously absorbed the Daoist essence, eventually sprouting two flower buds.

After the Ice Soul Daoist finished, it was the turn of the Mountain Suppressor Daoist, and the same thing happened, two flowers bloomed.

It was Fuxi who surprised Randeng. Fuxi had cultivated three laws simultaneously during the time of Taiyi: the law of sound, the law of wind, and the law of water. Randeng vaguely sensed the rudiments of the innate Bagua from them.

"It seems that these innate deities have all found the path that suits them best."

In the end, three flowers bloomed.

Nuwa's laws of creation, Yuanshi's laws of order, Tongtian's laws of metal, Zhenyuanzi's laws of earth, and Hongyun's laws of wind all blossomed in threes, with various laws and Daoist principles surrounding the ginseng fruit tree.

Among them, Randeng listened attentively to Nuwa's laws of creation, taking advantage of this rare opportunity to learn the basics of those laws.

Then it was finally the Supreme Lord's turn to preach.

"The Tao gives birth to One, One gives birth to Two, Two gives birth to Three, and Three gives birth to all things. All things carry Yin and embrace Yang, and the interaction of these two forces creates harmony... The interplay of Yin and Yang is called the Tao."

When the Yin-Yang principle was revealed, everyone was shocked. This Supreme Being actually dared to try to explain the Dao using Yin and Yang?

Randeng was also surprised, but after thinking about it, he understood. This was the future Taiqing Daode Tianzun, whose understanding of the Dao was second only to Hongjun. It was not surprising that he wanted to use Yin and Yang to explain the Dao when he was in the Daluo era.

The abundant Daoist energy was absorbed by the ginseng fruit tree, eventually giving birth to six flower buds.

Only then did everyone realize that Taishang had also advanced to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. Everyone's eyes turned to Randeng, since there were only the two Great Luo Golden Immortals present. Perhaps this discussion could help them determine who was stronger.

Ran Deng offered up the Spirit Vulture Palace Lantern, the light of the ghostly flames illuminating his face, making him appear majestic and solemn. Recalling his understanding of the Law of Annihilation, he slowly spoke.

"Silence gives rise to One, One returns to silence, silent and formless, this is called the root of the Tao. Heaven and earth give birth, and silence nourishes them to their end; all things arise, and silence guards their stillness..."

Three flowers appeared above their heads, and the five petals of the Nirvana Dao Fruit flower bloomed, quietly rotating, with endless Nirvana Dao rhyme spreading out, falling into the primordial spirits of everyone present along with the words spoken by the lamp.

"The very act of extinction giving birth elucidates the fundamental nature of heaven and earth!"

Nuwa was secretly surprised, and then immersed herself in the Daoist rhyme. The fundamental Daoist rhyme contained within was also quite beneficial to my understanding of the laws of creation.

The last few spiritual energy nodes on the ginseng fruit tree successively gave birth to flower buds, which in one fell swoop stimulated all the remaining nodes to grow.

Eight flowers bloom!

There are two more flowers than the Supreme One!

Everyone realized that among them, Randeng's understanding of the laws was indeed ahead of theirs, and they all offered their congratulations.

"Is that all? I was planning to share the teachings the teacher gave."

However, now that the target has been met, there's no need for Ran Deng to steal the spotlight.

He cupped his hands in greeting to those around him and said, "I have the advantage of higher realms in this discussion. I have benefited greatly from the Dao sought by you fellow Daoists, and I admire you greatly."

"Fellow Daoist is too modest. Although our levels are similar, your understanding of the Dao is indeed superior to mine."

Taishang sensed that the lamp-lighting ceremony ended with a feeling of unfinished business, and guessed that he might still be holding back.

"Since you have won first place, these three ginseng fruits are yours."

Zhen Yuanzi handed three ginseng fruits to Randeng, who thanked him and put them away.
