Chapter 684: Yingzhou Island Nurtures Fusang

The two Divine Kings were injured, but for Qiu Niu and the others, the impact was not great. The great formation finally unleashed its greatest power, pressing Ao Ling until she could barely breathe.

"Refining the True Dragon Dao!" Ao Ling swung her twin hammers, striking repeatedly, like hammering stubborn iron.

Boom—boom—boom—boom! The twin hammers collided with the treasures of Qiu Niu and the others, explosions ringing out one after another, shaking Golden Turtle Island until it trembled.

"Soul-Devouring Sound!"

"Way of Wind and Cloud!"

"Great Dragon Phase Divine Claw!"

……

Qiu Niu and the others finally gave their all, suppressing Ao Ling until she could not move.

"Hahaha, the True Dragon truly lives up to being the younger brother of the Primordial Chaos Heavenly Dragon. Ancestral Dragon Majesty obtained the inheritance of the Primordial Chaos Heavenly Dragon's Dao, and thus stepped into the Patriarch's invincible realm. And you, having obtained the True Dragon's blood not long ago, are already able to stand on equal footing with us. I can see that the era of the Dragon Court contending for supremacy over the Honghuang Dadi is about to arrive..." Qiu Niu laughed loudly.

"Is that so? How is it that the Dragon Emperor never learns, always sending you lot of trash to come?"

A lingering voice echoed from the palace of Golden Turtle Island, causing all Dragon Court beings to shudder in their hearts, unable to help trembling all over, their hearts filled with fear.

"Ah! It's the Carefree Wanderer demon—run!" Who knows who shouted first, but the Dragon Court soldiers who had been locked in fierce battle, devouring the flesh and blood of beings, scattered in flight, no longer sparing a thought for other beings.

Even the Nine Divine Sons, Twelve Divine Kings, and the thirty-six fierce Slaughter Generals immediately withdrew their formations, fleeing for their lives.

"Hmph, want to escape? World in the Palm!" Ye Qin had long been prepared.

Before, on the Heavenly Dragon Mountain Range, their souls and the Dragon Court's fortune treasure, the Dragon Sealing List, were united, indestructible and imperishable, merely causing an irremediable heart demon to arise in their minds.

But now, they have left the Dragon Sealing List, and with Ye Qin's Divine Ability greatly increased, his power is invincible, Ye Qin will surely retain their souls.

Boom!

A vast Chaos Hand appeared out of thin air, scooping upward, all Dragon Court beings wishing to escape were caught into the World in the Palm.

Within the World in the Palm, there is not only the Yin-Yang Grand Dao, but also the Life Grand Dao, the Metal Origin Grand Dao, and the Soul Grand Dao.

These are all Grand Daos that have already formed worlds and undergone qualitative change in the Carefree Wanderer Realm, now concentrated in a single palm, instantly unleashing unparalleled power.

In an instant, aside from Qiu Niu and the other Dragon Court powerhouses, all other beings were reduced to ashes.

The blood was refined by Ye Qin and sucked into the Sea of Blood Meridians, the soul fragments were absorbed by the Soul Realm.

The Dragon Court lost ten million beings in an instant.

Heavenly Dragon Mountain Range, Dragon Valley Ancestral Dragon Mountain.

A scroll emitting boundless fortune appeared from the Fortune Clouds, ten million true spirit fragments flew out from the scroll, transforming into flying ash.

Within the Fortune Clouds, ninety-nine eighty-one Xuan Qin Dragons roared, as if angrily wanting to burst through the cloud layers.

"Hm? The roar of the Fortune Dragons, the Dragon Sealing List's True Dragon dispersing—this is the result of ten million beings being utterly exterminated, body and spirit destroyed. Have they already begun war? Is it that Slaughter God Bai Qi from the north? No, these are the true spirits of those beings heading for the Eastern Sea. Trash, do I still need to personally go forth? Now is the critical moment to seize fortune, I cannot leave. No, the True Dragon's blood must absolutely not meet with mishap."

The Dragon Emperor muttered to himself, his gaze fixed firmly on the dragon's head of the Heavenly Dragon Mountain Range.

The dragon's head is where the Chaos Dragon Pearl resides, and also where Ancestral Dragon closes his gates, the Dragon's Domain.

But now it is tightly sealed, suppressed by a vast force like heaven and earth, so much so that even the fortune qi cannot enter.

The Dragon Emperor's thoughts fixed on the fortune cloud layers, his imperial aura continuously merging into them, continuously refining, causing Ancestral Dragon's aura to gradually wear away.

"You must immediately go to the Eastern Sea, no matter what, you must obtain the True Dragon's blood!" The Dragon Emperor said to the void.

"Yes!" Three figures merged into the void and vanished, as if they were wayfarers in darkness.

……

Eastern Sea Golden Turtle Island, Ye Qin stood at the gate of the Dragon God Palace, his right palm facing upward. In his palm, one could see a world: Yin-Yang qi wearing down all things, the Life Grand Dao drawing in life force, the Metal Origin Grand Dao transforming into endless sword qi, the Soul Grand Dao absorbing soul power.

The Nine Divine Sons, Twelve Divine Kings, and the Thirty-Six Slaughter Generals exerted all their strength, resisting the erosion of Ye Qin's World in the Palm.

They were desperate, fearful, their spirits once again devoured by the heart demon.

"I will fight you to the death!"

Boom!

Ao Shan could no longer bear the despair in his heart, and instantly self-destructed.

Ao Shan was an ancient Dragon Clan powerhouse, having accumulated power over hundreds of millions of years within his body, the explosion's force caused even the palm-world to tremble, actually creating a temporary void of vital energy in the area where he stood, allowing others to glimpse a sliver of hope.

"All self-destruct, at least the souls still have a chance to escape! One, two, three, explode!" As Qiu Niu's words fell, his body instantly shattered.

Boom!

Ao Shan's self-destruction caused a region to lose all vital energy; if all powerhouses self-destructed, the power would by no means be small, enough to destroy heaven and earth.

Ye Qin's World in the Palm was directly blown to pieces, even his right palm, strengthened by blood meridian power, was shattered beyond repair.

Swish—swish—swish—swish… The souls of Qiu Niu and the others tore open the Honghuang space with this great power, swiftly fleeing into the spatial rift, following the guidance of the Dragon Court's fortune, traversing space, returning to the Dragon Sealing List.

"Oh my goodness, when did these dragon brats become so bold? Actually collectively self-destructing?" Ye Qin lamented.

He gazed at his shattered right palm, a surge of blood meridian power flowed, flesh and blood rapidly regenerated, restoring to its original state.

However, looking at the already sealed spatial rift, he could only sigh helplessly.

"Carefree Wanderer Brother!"

"Master, hold me!"

"Master!"

The great battle ended, Ao Ling and the others flew in one after another.

"Hey, Niu Niu, you're pulling my hair again!" Ye Qin looked fondly at Niu Niu, and gave her chubby face a firm kiss.

Niu Niu is the true spirit of the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror; without the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror, there would be no Ye Qin's Breaking Law Divine Eye, nor would he have today's achievements.

Therefore, Ye Qin treats Niu Niu as a real younger sister, doting on her.

"Qiu Meng, you performed well. The Great Dream Eternal Autumn Technique is a great Divine Ability; when I later capture that old fellow Preparati and study him, I will thoroughly ponder his Bodhi Entering Dream Grand Dao, integrate it into your Great Dream Eternal Autumn Technique, then it will truly be formidable!"

Ye Qin said to a graceful and beautiful woman.

Then he waved his hand, a soul phantom floated into Qiu Meng's sea of soul.

Ye Qin had previously set up a soul restriction in Qiu Meng's soul, now it is no longer necessary, so he returned the soul restriction to Qian Qiu Meng Die.

"Thank you, Master!" Qiu Mengxin exclaimed happily, her voice delicate and sweet.

"Alright, this Golden Ao Island is no longer suitable as the main base of the East Sea Dragon Palace. I'll take you to a good place!" Ye Qin led the group flying toward the direction of Creation Island.

This time, he intends to accomplish a great matter long planned.

……

"Damn it, again the Carefree Wanderer Demon! Is he destined to be the bane of my Dragon Court?" the Dragon Emperor roared angrily.

He looked at the nine divine sons who had reforged their bodies but whose spirits were withered, and questioned: "You have all cultivated the Magic Dragon Great Dao, far stronger than before—could it be that you still cannot match him alone?"

A mighty imperial aura pressed down directly on Prison Ox and the others. Since the Ancestral Dragon's Chaos Dragon Pearl had shown no movement, the Dragon Emperor had taken over the Ancestral Dragon's fortune position in the Dragon Court, becoming even more powerful, his might like that of the supreme of heaven and earth.

"Reporting to Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, the Carefree Wanderer Demon has also become much stronger. His Divine Ability in his palm can annihilate myriad strong beings with a single move, and he has even pressed us so hard we can barely breathe. If it weren't for the self-destruction of Ao Shan, God King, which allowed us to find a way to escape, we would have already been utterly destroyed! He is too strong—simply invincible!" Prison Ox reported.

Now, the personnel relationships within the Dragon Court have become somewhat strange, and with the passage of time, anything could happen.

"Who would have thought? The Golden Carp is no pond-dweller; when wind and cloud meet, it transforms into a dragon. Back then he was so weak—originally he was accumulating strength, aiming to achieve qualitative change through infinite power, cultivating a great Dao we do not know! Well, you go to the northern part of the Tianlong Mountain Range, to the Killing God Ridge, where our Dragon Court's banner has already been planted at the edge. That Killing God Bai Qi is a notable figure—be careful. Also, watch out for the Wu tribe!" the Dragon Emperor commanded.

"Yes, sir!"

……

Above the East Sea, countless living beings flew across the sky and landed on what seemed a desolate island. Yet on the island, not a single living being dwelled.

"Unexpected—after over a million years, this place remains unchanged. But that's perfect. As Fangzheng Island, one of the Three Great Primordial Islands alongside Penglai and Yingzhou, how could it be simple? Though the Chaos Ice Dragon has departed, this place still contains the most primordial Dao aura. As long as I expel all the killing qi here, then use the Life Dao to restore vitality, and later find Yingzhou Island, when the Heaven-Earth-Three-Talents Formation is completed, the Dao will manifest itself, and this place can truly become a place to establish the Dao!" Ye Qin muttered to himself.

When he first discovered Penglai Island, Ye Qin had this plan. Later, Fangzheng Island suffered a calamity, many things happened, Ye Qin left for a time, and never went to search for Yingzhou Island.

But as Ye Qin's comprehension of the Dao deepened, he conjectured that there must be some connection among the Three Great Primordial Islands, just like the Dragon Court's Heaven-Earth-Three-Talents Great Formation. Hence he decided to relocate the East Sea Dragon Palace here.

"Carefree Brother, isn't this Creation Island? It's still in this ruined state now—you said you'd bring us to a good place, won't it be this place? Better to return to Carefree Island!" Ao Ling said. She still pines for Carefree Island to this day.

Carefree Island is the foundation where Ye Qin first established the Dao of Carefree Wanderer; he does not intend to let other Honghuang beings live and cultivate there. Only those deeply connected to him may go up. For that is his base in the Honghuang.

"Don't rush—now let you see true Creation. Observe carefully; whether you comprehend it depends on your own fortune!"

Ye Qin said, and a mighty, life-filled Dao emanated from him. The Life Spirit Realm in the Carefree World surged with waves of life qi.

Whoosh! A devouring force absorbed all the killing qi within ten thousand li of Creation Island. The seawater gradually turned blue, the island's land returned to normal, a hint of lush green appeared. Beneath the island, a strand of chaos qi rose slowly.

"This is truly the primordial three islands formed from chaos fragments!" Ye Qin exclaimed joyfully, gazing down at the chaos abyss below.

Only see: beneath the hundred-thousand-zhang-high mountain at the center of Creation Island, strands of chaos qi emerged. These are the remnants of chaos qi absorbed by the Chaos Ice Dragon, then frozen underground by it.

As this strand of chaos qi rose, a wondrous change occurred instantly.

The so-called Wuji gives birth to Taiji, Taiji gives birth to Liangyi, Liangyi gives birth to Sixiang, Sixiang transforms into Wuxing.

The spiritual qi on Creation Island instantly became rich, gradually restoring the splendor of a fairyland.

That hundred-thousand-zhang-high mountain is even more entwined with immortal qi; trees renewed their vitality, and the destroyed earth and stone cliffs slowly emitted Dao aura.

Ye Qin exercised the Life Dao—Dao unceasing, life endless. All killing qi was devoured by the black hole. Originally, the black dead sea spanning ten million li around Creation Island turned blue, infused with life qi, and attracted countless living beings. They absorbed this life qi and suddenly attained enlightenment; many beings opened their apertures and transformed their forms.

All the great beings of the East Sea Dragon Palace also gained insight. Originally, they were beings whose comprehension of their Divine Abilities was extremely profound; now Ye Qin's display of the Dao made them feel as if bathed in sweet dew.

This process lasted a full fifty years before Creation Island finally reappeared in its ancient prosperity. Though the chaos qi has dissipated, this place has become even more suitable for the cultivation of living beings today.

"Alright, from now on, Creation Island shall be the main base of your East Sea Dragon Palace. You may freely recruit talents and expand your influence. Now, go build your own cave abodes first. Yaya, you stay here to protect Niu Niu, and you may also teach her the Dao of artifact refinement." Ye Qin commanded.

The living beings of the East Sea Dragon Palace were overjoyed, for they found this place better than Golden Ao Island, containing more Dao fragments, as if returning to the primordial era when they first awakened. Even more pleasing, this place made them feel utterly safe.

They even dared to proudly say to others: "We have someone above us—do you know the Carefree Wanderer Daoist? He is the Dao companion of our Dragon Goddess! How? Haven't heard of the Carefree Wanderer Daoist? Then you must have heard of the Carefree Wanderer Demon, right?"

Upon saying this, they often made others hear the news and lose courage.

But how could Ye Qin allow them to use his name to swagger and deceive?

Doing so would only bring Ye Qin endless karmic debt, deepening his connection with the Honghuang heaven and earth, which is extremely detrimental to his comprehension of the Carefree Wanderer Dao.

Therefore, before leaving, Ye Qin had already used powerful soul power to erase from those beings' souls the memories of him. They only knew that their leader, the Dragon Goddess Ao Ling, is an invincible powerhouse.

For Ye Qin, who has already opened the Soul Realm, erasing these memories of insignificant beings is as easy as turning one's hand.

"Ling'er, you must cultivate your True Dragon Dao well and develop your East Sea Dragon Palace. I intend to open a True Dragon Realm in the Carefree World—not the ordinary dragon clan of Honghuang, but true dragons. True dragons are all beasts with dragon bloodlines who, through their own efforts, endure countless tribulations and finally achieve the true dragon form. This is not merely attainable through high cultivation, but also a spirit—the spirit of the true dragon." (End of Chapter)
