135: Arrive in Penglai

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Xuan Qing, on obtaining another Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure."

Di Jun and Tai Yi, along with the Ten Great Demon Sages, all offered their congratulations.

At the same time, a hint of envy that was hard to conceal flashed in their eyes.

They had witnessed with their own eyes Xuan Qing obtaining two Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.

"Then I must thank you all for yielding. This eight trigrams furnace is truly a fine treasure for Alchemy."

"If any of you Fellow Daoists need any Medicinal Pills refined in the future, I will certainly not refuse."

Xuan Qing chuckled as he stored the eight trigrams furnace into his Primordial Spirit. This promise of not refusing made Di Jun and Tai Yi exceptionally joyful.

Xuan Qing's words represented a disguised promise to join their group.

This place was already very close to Penglai Immortal Island. After collecting the eight trigrams furnace, the group of experts continued toward their destination.

After East King Duke fled back to Penglai Immortal Island with the Queen Mother of the West and Lei Ze,

he immediately activated Penglai Immortal Island's Innate Great Formation for defense.

As a great god born on Penglai Immortal Island, East King Duke had refined the Island Stele after his birth.

After he became the actual island master of Penglai Immortal Island,

the Innate Great Formation of Penglai Immortal Island was naturally under his control.

Only after activating the Innate Great Formation did East King Duke's group breathe a sigh of relief.

"Just what kind of sacred being is that creature, to be able to fight alone against two existences of the same level?"

"Moreover, Ming He had so many Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures with him."

"Yet he was still suppressed and beaten by that creature; it is truly terrifying."

"If not for that creature, we surely would have been able to seize that Spirit Treasure Opportunity today."

As East King Duke thought of Xuan Qing's figure fighting against heaven and earth, a sense of fear welled up in his heart.

If he were to switch places with Kunpeng, the outcome likely wouldn't be any better.

"Indeed, that creature is truly terrifying. In the future, when traveling the Primordial World, we must be careful."

"Avoid him if possible; if we truly cannot avoid him, we must not offend him."

Thus, Xuan Qing was placed on the 'do not provoke' list by East King Duke, the Queen Mother of the West, and Lei Ze.

"Fellow Daoist, can this Innate Great Formation withstand the attack of those dozen or so Grand Unity Golden Immortals?"

"I fear those dozen or so Grand Unity Golden Immortal Creatures will pursue us after they collect the Spirit Treasures."

"If this formation cannot stop them, we will need to find another way out."

The Queen Mother of the West looked at the immortal island's formation with some concern, and Lei Ze's reaction was similar.

If this formation couldn't withstand the attacks of those creatures, they had better leave early.

"Rest assured, Two Fellow Daoists. My Penglai Immortal Island is the greatest immortal island in the Primordial World, and its Innate Great Formation is equally powerful."

"Even if those thirteen Grand Unity Golden Immortals attack together, it would be impossible to break through this Innate Great Formation."

East King Duke spoke with considerable pride.

"What! Fellow Daoist, are you saying this island is the greatest immortal island in the Primordial World—Penglai Immortal Island?"

The Queen Mother of the West and Lei Ze were no longer calm.

Their journey through the Primordial World was not only to seek Opportunities and meet more powerful peers,

but also to see the greatest immortal island in the Primordial World, Penglai Immortal Island.

They hadn't expected to have already stepped onto Penglai Immortal Island without realizing it.

Only now did the Queen Mother of the West and Lei Ze belatedly look at the very obvious Island Stele of Penglai Immortal Island.

Upon it were written four ancient divine characters: 'Penglai Immortal Island'.

At the same time, they finally sensed the innate spiritual qi in the environment, which was dense to the extreme.

Compared to the Primordial Continent, the innate spiritual qi of Penglai Immortal Island was countless times denser.

They could even see the innate spiritual qi liquefying and falling as spiritual rain.

"Fellow Daoist truly has great fortune to have the greatest immortal island in the Primordial World recognize you as master and serve as your Dao Arena."

Both the Queen Mother of the West and Lei Ze looked at East King Duke with envy.

East King Duke greatly enjoyed the envious gazes from these two fellow cultivators.

A very proud expression couldn't help but appear on his face.

Just a single compliment and an envious look were enough for East King Duke to act this way.

It was no wonder that after being appointed as the head of the male immortals by Hongjun during the sermon at Zixiao Palace, East King Duke's performance would be so poor.

This fellow's vanity and desire for power were simply overflowing.

"I was merely nurtured and born on Penglai Immortal Island by chance."

"Being in a favored position, I managed to obtain this Dao Arena of Penglai Immortal Island."

East King Duke's words seemed humble, but he was actually showing off.

This caused both the Queen Mother of the West and Lei Ze to frown.

These two were also existences who were well-versed in the Path of Lying Low.

Lei Ze still had some fame after the Dao-Demon Conflict, but after that, he completely vanished and laid low.

The Queen Mother of the West was the same; after East King Duke established the Immortal Court, she did not participate in its affairs, choosing only to protect herself.

After the Immortal Court was destroyed by the Demon Race Heavenly Court, she lived in seclusion in West Kunlun and did not participate in the major events of the Primordial World.

Even during the Journey to the West period, she only participated in its events under a different identity.

Seeing East King Duke being so high-profile, the two masters of lying low felt very uncomfortable.

They decided in their hearts that after surviving this disaster, they would no longer venture out, and their friendship with East King Duke would end here.

East King Duke didn't realize that the opinions of the two great gods before him had already quietly changed.

He thought they were frowning because they were envious of his Penglai Immortal Island.

He continued to boast incessantly about how powerful his Penglai Immortal Island was.

The Queen Mother of the West and Lei Ze had no interest in listening to East King Duke's boasting and quickly sat cross-legged to regulate their breathing.

Because within their Primordial Spirit's perception, thirteen Grand Unity Golden Immortals were already grandly approaching Penglai Immortal Island.

After Xuan Qing collected the eight trigrams furnace, Di Jun and Tai Yi rushed toward Penglai Immortal Island without stopping.

The current location of Penglai Immortal Island was not very far from the Shore of the East Sea.

Soon, the group of experts could see with their naked eyes that Penglai Immortal Island, larger than a Major Thousand Worlds, was situated upon the East Sea.

"As expected of the greatest immortal island in the Primordial World."

"Even from such a great distance, one can feel the dense innate spiritual qi emanating from it."

"If one could Cultivate within it, the results would surely be twice as effective with half the effort."

Tai Yi spoke while looking at Penglai Immortal Island with excitement in his eyes.

The two brothers Di Jun and Tai Yi now had the idea of seizing Penglai Immortal Island to use as their own Dao Arena.

Xuan Qing just smiled and said nothing. That Penglai Immortal Island had long been occupied by East King Duke; there was no room for the two brothers.

Moreover, the Heavenly Dao would later open a back door for these two brothers, allowing them to find the location of the Thirty-six Heavens and the entrance to the Heavenly Court.

That Heavenly Court was even better than Penglai Immortal Island.

If The two brothers Di Jun and Tai Yi really occupied Penglai Immortal Island as their Dao Arena, Xuan Qing would be amused to death.

"Eh? Your Majesty, look! Penglai Immortal Island seems to be protected by an Innate Great Formation."

Bai Ze spoke up at an inopportune moment, interrupting the fantasies of The two brothers Di Jun and Tai Yi.

Di Jun and Tai Yi looked closely and found that it was indeed as Bai Ze said; Penglai Immortal Island was protected by an Innate Great Formation.

Not only that, but through the formation, Di Jun and Tai Yi also saw the three figures of East King Duke and the others who had fled earlier.

Seeing this, how could Di Jun and Tai Yi not understand?

This Penglai Immortal Island had already been refined and claimed by one of those three creatures.

The faces of The two brothers Di Jun and Tai Yi darkened, feeling as though they had been played like fools.

"East King Duke, come out and meet your death!"

Tai Yi stood before the formation and spoke with an extremely arrogant air.
