18: Situation of Three Immortal Islands

"A mount, now there is another mount.

Fine, in that case, I will accept Ao Jiang.

Although I have the Ink Jade Qilin, my Second Brother and Third Brother are not yet born and have no mounts.

Let Ao Jiang be the mount for either Second Brother or Third Brother.

The Phoenix Clan will likely send a junior to repay the Karma.

Then, all of us Sanqing can have mounts.

That is not bad."

Thinking this, Taiqing readily agreed.

"Fine, Ao Jiang, you stay by my side.

I have two brothers; we three brothers are the Sanqing, and we Sanqing are one.

When the time comes, you can choose one of my two brothers to serve.

This will count as repaying my Karma."

Hearing Taiqing's words, Ao Jiang was a bit confused, not knowing if he should follow Taiqing's arrangement.

But then a voice rang in Ao Jiang's mind.

"Accept it."

That voice was clearly from the Ancestral Dragon.

The current states of Ancestral Dragon, Yuan Phoenix, and First Qilin are very peculiar.

Similar to merging with the world.

Though restricted by the world, they can also use the world to ignore distance and give instructions to their descendants in the Honghuang World.

However, they can only give instructions to descendants connected to their own Luck.

They do not have this ability for other sentient beings.

This is why the Ancestral Dragon did not personally transmit his voice to Taiqing.

Ancestral Dragon had used the authority he held over the world to calculate, and Taiqing's words were indeed true, offering no small benefit to his Dragon Clan.

"This little dragon is willing to follow the Great Master's orders."

Since his own Clan Chief had given the order, Ao Jiang no longer hesitated and immediately bowed before Taiqing.

"Good, stay by my side. Once I return to Kunlun, I will let you choose for yourself."

To be honest, this Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, Ao Jiang, looked quite impressive.

Not inferior to the Ink Jade Qilin at all.

After all, they were both part of the Innate Three Clans.

However, his Dao was not compatible with Taiqing's, so Taiqing naturally would not choose him as his own mount.

Besides, there is no rule saying one can only have one mount.

Just like a person can own several cars at once.

As long as you have the ability, the number is often unlimited.

"I obey the Great Master's orders."

Ao Jiang silently followed behind the Ink Jade Qilin, ready to listen to Taiqing's orders at any time.

"Ao Jiang, since your Dragon Clan has lived in this East Sea for countless Yuanhui, do you know the situation of the Three Immortal Islands?"

Since Taiqing wanted to find the Three Immortal Islands, the Dragon Clan was the best race to ask for information.

The Dragon Clan possessed the four seas, and their control over them was very powerful.

After all, even by the time of Journey to the West, the Dragon Clan was still the master of the four seas.

From this, one can see the strength of the Dragon Clan's control over the four seas.

Moreover, the current Dragon Clan, with the Ancestral Dragon leading the elites, had just returned to the water veins of the four seas.

Although their control over the four seas had declined, they were once the overlords of the four seas.

Their control over the East Sea still remained.

If there were any signs of the Three Immortal Islands, they would naturally be recorded by the Dragon Clan.

Perhaps the Dragon Clan had even obtained many benefits from the Three Immortal Islands.

"Great Master, when it comes to the Three Immortal Islands, you have asked the right person.

Regarding knowledge of the Three Immortal Islands, no race in the Honghuang World can compare to my Dragon Clan."

Hearing Taiqing ask about the Three Immortal Islands, Ao Jiang immediately perked up.

He spoke incessantly, revealing all the records the Dragon Clan had kept about the Three Immortal Islands over so many Yuanhui without reservation.

According to Dragon Clan records, the Three Immortal Islands are in an unmanifested state, completely hidden within the Chaos Void Realm, making them impossible to find.

However, every once in a while, the Three Immortal Islands intersect with the Honghuang World.

The location of each intersection is uncertain; the only certainty is that it is within the range of the East Sea.

During the period when the Three Immortal Islands intersect with Honghuang, Sentient beings of the Primordial Era can enter to seek Opportunity or go onto the islands to do things.

But the intersection time is very short, at most one Yuanhui, then the Three Immortal Islands will once again detach from the Honghuang World.

Then they hide back into Chaos, moving along with the Honghuang World.

Furthermore, the time each island intersects with Honghuang is inconsistent.

So, within the same period, Sentient beings of the Primordial Era can only choose one island to board.

Over so many Yuanhui, the Dragon Clan has boarded the Three Immortal Islands many times.

The reason the Dragon Clan is so wealthy is, on one hand, because they possess the four seas.

On the other hand, it is also because the Dragon Clan has boarded the Three Immortal Islands many times and obtained many good things inside.

However, because the Three Immortal Islands are still in an unmanifested state, the Dragon Clan cannot enter the true core of the islands.

The true treasures of the Three Immortal Islands are all kept within their cores.

But Taiqing did not insist on entering the core of the Three Immortal Islands.

What he sought was just to enter any one of the Three Immortal Islands, using its Innate condition of not being controlled or influenced by the Heavenly Dao.

To achieve a Breakthrough to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal Realm before the Dao-Demon Conflict ends, and walk the Path of Dao Attainment through Law.

"So, the next one to intersect with Honghuang will be the Penglai Immortal Island?"

After listening to Ao Jiang's narration, Taiqing summarized the information useful to him.

"Reporting to the Great Master, based on the Dragon Clan's past records and experience.

The immortal island that will intersect with Honghuang in about one Yuanhui is indeed the Penglai Immortal Island."

The Three Immortal Islands include Penglai Immortal Island, Mount Fangzhang Immortal Island, and Yingzhou Immortal Island.

Because the three islands are similar, all formed from the largest fragments of Chaos after the Great God Pangu opened the heavens.

Therefore, they are often linked together and called the Three Immortal Islands.

These Three Immortal Islands are not the same as the island where the three Fairies Yunxiao, Bixiao, and Qiongxiao live, where 'Three Immortals' refers to the three Fairies.

Whereas the Three Immortal Islands of Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou mean Three Immortal Islands.

"About one Yuanhui, the time is a bit tight. Can you determine the approximate range where Penglai Immortal Island will appear?"

To advance to a Hunyuan Golden Immortal without the help of boundless Luck or massive Karma.

Relying purely on Taiqing himself, the difficulty is not ordinary.

Taiqing needs to reach the state of most Perfection within this one Yuanhui.

Otherwise, even staying in the immortal island for ten Yuanhui, he might find it difficult to advance to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal Realm.

Moreover, if the immortal island appears in the depths of the East Sea, it would take one or two Yuanhui just to rush there.

By the time Taiqing arrives, the immortal island would have already hidden back into Chaos.

It would be best to determine an approximate range.

"Reporting to the Great Master, based on the Dragon Clan's experience recording the appearance locations of Penglai Immortal Island over the years.

The approximate range of Penglai Immortal Island's appearance this time should be in the direction of flying east from here for tens of thousands of years."

"Flying at full speed for tens of thousands of years... then you lead the way in front, we will head there now."

Having confirmed the range, Taiqing no longer waited.

He would just go to that area of the sea and wait.

Since the Dragon Clan came to repay the Karma, they naturally would not lie to him.

If they lied, the Karma would be even greater.

Ao Jiang led the way in front, and Taiqing sat cross-legged on the back of the Ink Jade Qilin to Cultivate.

The three powerful beings rushed towards the direction Ao Jiang mentioned at full speed.
