Chapter 34: Three Immortals Island

The great array unfurled, enveloping Yinyang and the others within it; after passing through the Innate Three Talents Array, Three Immortals Island revealed itself before everyone.

This Three Immortals Island was transformed from a Chaos Fragment, its Innate Qi surging, countless immortal birds and spiritual plants growing upon it, suspended above the sea surface with countless Dao rhymes lingering within.

Each of the three islands has wondrous peaks; innate spiritual springs flow eternally in waterfall form, Great Dao divine script inscribed upon the peaks — from left to right they are Fangzhang, Penglai, Yingzhou!

And outside Penglai Island stand two smaller solitary peaks, named Daiyu and Yuanqiao! "What an Innate Secret Realm; no wonder it is guarded by such a powerful Innate Array — the foundation of each immortal island is no less than Zhutian Island!"

Gazing at the three immortal islands before him, Qiankun Daoren could not help but sigh in admiration.

"Here there happen to be three islands and two solitary peaks — yet this is fate decreed in the dark; why not let Penglai and the solitary peaks go to Third Brother and the two disciple-nephews, while Second Brother and I each choose one as another dao-chang for ourselves?"

Yinyang could naturally see that Penglai was the main island, its Dao rhyme most abundant, Fangzhang second, Yingzhou last.

Therefore after Yinyang finished speaking he did not wait for the two to agree, simply flying off toward Yingzhou Island on his own.

"The name 'Yingzhou' suits my intent perfectly; I shall make this my dao-chang!"

After Yinyang Laozu stepped onto Yingzhou Island, the Yinyang Law manifested, and he began refining the entire island, thereby cutting off any possibility of Qiankun and Zhu Qingyun yielding to him.

Seeing this, Qiankun sighed helplessly, yet said nothing — though the burning heat in his eyes was plain to see.

The Qiankun Law circulated; henceforth Fangzhang Island would be Qiankun's dao-chang!

Zhu Qingyun shrugged, bringing Fuxi and Nuwa onto Penglai Immortal Island.

Nuwa's eyes rolled, then with an excited face she chose Daiyu Mountain as her dao-chang; the Creation Great Dao surged, countless pink immortal peach blossoms bloomed, the whole of Daiyu Mountain turning into a pink ocean.

Fuxi, for his part, refined Yuanqiao Mountain and planted cypress trees one after another; the entire Yuanqiao Mountain became a verdant expanse of green.

Hmm, I heard from 'Yun' that Master is called Zhu 'Qing' Yun!

After the two each finished refining their solitary peaks, Zhu Qingyun naturally used the Literature Dao Law to complete the refining of the whole Penglai Immortal Island, then began probing the entire island.

The whole Penglai Immortal Island holds dozens of Innate Spiritual Treasures, one Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, one Top-grade Innate Spiritual Root! The Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure is the Purifying World White Lotus! The Top-grade Innate Spiritual Root is the Yellow Plum!

Purifying World White Lotus, one of the Five Great Lotus Platforms transformed from seeds of the Chaos Green Lotus, contains the Order and Purification Dao! Yellow Plum, flowers once every thirty thousand years, fruits once every thirty thousand years, ripens once every thirty thousand years, each season bearing nine fruits!

Its flowers resemble lotus, its fruit resembles plum; both flower and fruit bear the two characters 'Yellow Center'.

Mortals who smell it can become immortals on the spot; immortals who eat it can directly reach Great Luo! Zhu Qingyun reached out, and a pure white lotus flower appeared before him.

【You observed the Purifying World White Lotus, gained insight into the Order and Purification Laws; current mastery: 5%!】

【You observed the Purifying World White Lotus, gained insight into the Purification Law; current mastery: 23%!】

【You used Literature Dao to derive myriad Daos, reverse-derived Literature Dao Law through Order and Purification Laws, gained a slight improvement!】

【You sensed many commonalities between the Purifying World White Lotus and the Qingyun Golden Lotus; you comprehended the Spirit Treasure Fusion Method!】

Spirit Treasure Fusion Method!

By absorbing lotus platform origin through the Qingyun Golden Lotus, strengthen the Qingyun Golden Lotus's own origin! However this project cannot be completed overnight, and since the Qingyun Golden Lotus and Purifying World White Lotus are of different origins, much lotus platform origin will inevitably be wasted.

"Then if I use the Purifying World White Lotus as the main body to absorb other lotus platform origins, could I recreate the Chaos Green Lotus? Not asking for thirty-six grades; even thirty-two grades would be very strong!"

All Five Great Lotus Platforms have traces to follow.

The strongest, the twenty-four-grade Creation Green Lotus, split into three, held by the Three Pure Ones! The World-Extinguishing Golden Lotus is in Luo Hou's hands; after his death its whereabouts are unknown! The Karma Fire Red Lotus is in the hands of Minghe, future master of the Sea of Blood! The Merit Golden Lotus is in the hands of Western Jieyin! "Forget it, take it one step at a time!" Zhu Qingyun shook his head, put away the Purifying World White Lotus, but did not go probe the Yellow Plum Tree.

Not that the tree isn't good, just that for the current Zhu Qingyun it has little use.

Great Luo Golden Immortal? Sorry, my disciple is already at Primordial Golden Immortal early stage!

"Master Master! I found a spiritual treasure on Daiyu Mountain!"

Just as Zhu Qingyun wanted to see what gains Qiankun and Yinyang had made, Nuwa ran over with a face full of excitement.

She held aloft a verdant lotus-shaped treasure lamp, its candle flame burning; its aura reached Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

"Lotus Lamp!"

Zhu Qingyun recognized at a glance this spiritual treasure that would become famous in later generations.

"Master, disciple Fuxi obtained an array diagram, named the Nine Heavens Eight Arrays Map!"

Fuxi respectfully presented a treasure map; though he loved arrays and reluctance showed in his eyes, he still chose to follow the 'Rite' in his heart! "Fuxi, you are thoughtful; but you take it to comprehend first — Master hopes you will gain insight!"

What 'Nine Heavens Eight Arrays' Map? Isn't this just the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Diagram! And Nuwa's Lotus Lamp — both were theirs in their previous lives; so these two solitary peaks were entered by the two of them in their past lives?

Could it really be fate decreed in the dark? Now that Fuxi obtained the 'Nine Heavens Eight Arrays Map', he won't really create the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams, will he?

And once Fuxi creates the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams, after Qiankun comprehends it, he might truly become the first existence to prove the Dao as Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal!

Amid Zhu Qingyun's pondering, his heart faintly gained clarity toward that most difficult Fate Great Dao.

"Hahaha, Third Brother, my Fangzhang is quite wondrous! Obtained one High-grade Innate Spiritual Root Fire Jujube Tree! Obtained the first immortal crane in heaven and earth to transform into a boy servant."

Speak of Cao Cao and Cao Cao arrives; it was Qiankun arriving with loud laughter, interrupting Zhu Qingyun's thoughts.

"Right, speaking of boy servants, what about my mount Shi Qilin's son Sixiang?"

"Just one High-grade Innate Spiritual Root?"

Zhu Qingyun felt something was off; even if Penglai Immortal Island is the main island, Fangzhang Island's treasures shouldn't be this few.

"Oh right, I forgot to tell Second Brother — Sixiang I had him return to the Qilin Clan, to return after participating in the Three Clans War!"

Actually it was Sixiang's own choice, but Zhu Qingyun quite liked that spirit of his, so he helped shift the excuse onto himself.

"Oh, there's also a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, but I couldn't be bothered to look at it!"

Zhu Qingyun: "."

Come on, I as a spiritual treasure aggregate even take a look at what Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure it is; you Qiankun just rely on having the Innate Supreme Treasure Qiankun Cauldron with the ability to reverse the innate — what's so great about you? Zhu Qingyun looked at himself, Big Brother, Fuxi and Nuwa wearing the Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure grade Dao robes Qiankun had just recently refined.

Fine, you really are something! "My Yingzhou has no good spiritual treasures or spiritual roots to speak of."

Yinyang said expressionlessly.

"Then what is there?"

Zhu Qingyun asked curiously.
