Chapter 256: with translation of chapter title

256. Chapter 256 Penglai Immortal Realm, a flash of spiritual light.

Pale flesh was placed before Yinglong; the karmic force of the entanglers was almost visible to the naked eye. Although Yinglong knew he would inevitably go through this step, he still felt a hint of hesitation at this critical moment.

What are you still hesitating about?

The voice of the Ancestral Dragon rang out, and the huge gap on its tail showed no sign of healing.

However, this is also the case; within this piece of flesh lies the condensed essence, qi, and spirit of the Ancestral Dragon, entwined with life—how could it be easily made up for?

Yinglong looked at the Ancestral Dragon whose aura had dropped considerably, then finally hardened his heart, opened his dragon mouth, and began feasting voraciously on the flesh.

As the flesh disappeared, Yinglong's aura continually expanded, reaching perfection, yet mixed within it were evil and strange qi.

The Ancestral Dragon merely watched coldly, as if Yinglong were not devouring his flesh at all, until Yinglong had finished eating it, then the Ancestral Dragon spoke again:

"Now that your life is complete, go break through; if the Heavenly Court inquires, just speak plainly."

"From now on, continue forward in your own way; as for me, you need not concern yourself, and unless there is something important, I will no longer contact you."

Upon hearing the Ancestral Dragon's words, Yinglong wanted to speak but held back; in the end he merely sighed helplessly and then turned and left.

After Yinglong departed, the Ancestral Dragon dazedly gazed toward the direction of Gui Xu, muttering: "You wish to see me fall, to erase the dragon clan from the history of the wilderness, but I will never allow this to happen!"

The sea eye remained calm yet frenzied, constantly tearing at the Ancestral Dragon's body; the gap in its tail also became a target of the watery assault.

The wound, hard to heal, was tugged by the surging water qi, continually expanding.

The Ancestral Dragon showed no reaction to this; merely, his body suddenly shrank a bit, and the scales that had previously vanished reappeared.

However, no matter how one looked at it, there seemed to be a hint of strangeness, an earthen stone feel—not like flesh, but rather like jade.

And as these scales appeared, the surging water qi eased somewhat, yet remained wildly unrestrained.

The Heavenly Court.

Qi resided in the meditation chamber, occasionally rising to walk a few steps, gazing at the primordial purple qi before him; Qi ultimately still let out a long sigh and said:

"Such a heaven‑earth treasure has actually fallen into the hands of this foolish me; truly it is a pity."

Qi had never imagined that, using his own primordial spirit, he would still be injured by his contemplation of the Dao, his mental strength exhausted, having gone too far.

"Having dwelt too long in the clouds, I forgot that true grounding lies in keeping feet on the ground; having only just entered the mixed‑origin realm, having traversed less than one‑tenth of the Great Dao, I dare to attempt the method of proving the Dao."

"Forcing it, one inevitably loses measure; even if there is a flash of insight, it cannot ultimately be grasped."

Qi casually flicked his hand, sending the primordial purple qi into the meditation chamber where Di Jun resided; time remaining was short, only a little more than one yuan hui, this object is precious and must not be wasted.

Immediately, Qi again sat cross‑legged upon the innate twelve‑rank pure‑world white lotus; after a while, a massive serpent tail coiled around him to protect him, and he fell into deep sleep.

Di Jun was still in seclusion; suddenly he felt as if heaven were aiding him, his thoughts exceptionally clear and pure, though he did not know why, he did not want to miss the opportunity and immediately immersed himself in his seclusion.

On the shore of the East Sea, Dong Wanggong, who was walking with twenty or so Daluo Jinxians, suddenly showed delight, led the crowd to change direction, and rushed toward the deep sea.

"We have found it, finally found it; that fated land has finally emerged; this must be a great opportunity for the flourishing of the Immortal Court in the world, and must not fall into outsiders' hands."

Dong Wanggong thought, his speed increased a bit more; the several Daluo Jinxians following closely, though doubtful, did not dare to ask.

Everyone in the wilderness knows that our lord has been wandering the East Sea shore, surely searching for something.

But our lord is tight‑lipped, never revealing anything; even to these close aides, he only ever lets slip a few fragments.

When Dong Wanggong arrived, he saw countless fish swimming in circles, encircling a patch of immortal land, where rosy light shone ten thousand zhang high and a white rainbow pierced the sun.

As soon as Dong Wanggong arrived, the immortal land began to change: an island appeared, upon it gathered rare treasures, countless exotic beasts frolicking, and every plant and tree was of immortal grade.

The coastline twisted and turned, reefs densely packed, waves blossoming one after another; though appearing ordinary, it was also a place where water spirits frolicked and spiritual vitality thrived.

Between the waves, spirit fish leapt, dew droplets fell, gathering a hint of rosy‑cloud hue; a gentle breeze brushed past, carrying the fragrance of blooming spirit flowers.

Seeing this place, Dong Wanggong was overjoyed, ignoring that the terrestrial law had not yet dissipated, he led the way onto the island.

Having entered the island, Dong Wanggong's palace realized they had underestimated this place; so marvelous, yet it was merely a subordinate island; looking from this island, far away a vast continent floated upon the sea.

Turning to look at the approaching crowd, seeing they too were overjoyed, Dong Wanggong immediately spoke:

"Spread the word throughout the world, gather those who aspire to the Immortal Dao; after one yuan hui, convene an Immortal Dao assembly to celebrate the emergence of the Immortal Court!"

"At the same time, seize the many subordinate islands, broadcast throughout the wilderness, recruit disciples, and widely spread the wondrous methods of the Immortal Dao."

"Those who attain Taiyi may become a spirit official of the Immortal Court, enjoy the court's qi‑fortune offerings, join me in contemplating the Great Dao, and achieve an immortal accomplishment."

Hearing this, the crowd rejoiced greatly; after following for a long time, they finally saw daylight! "We have received the command; we wish to join Lord Dong Wanggong in achieving great deeds, to spread the prestige of our Immortal Court, to honor heaven and revere the Dao, and to widely spread the Immortal Dao throughout the wilderness."

Upon hearing this, Dong Wanggong instead became reserved, merely smiling faintly, raising one hand slightly in a gesture of lifting up, speaking with considerable bearing:

"Good."

After the crowd departed, Dong Wanggong finally had leisure to explore that main island; upon reaching its core, he saw a stone stele erected, inscribed with the words 'One One Penglai'.

The emergence of Penglai Immortal Island naturally drew the attention of the gods of the wilderness; after all, the sight of a white rainbow piercing the sun had never been seen anywhere in the wilderness.

Fuxi, far away in the Heavenly Court, naturally also witnessed this portent, and murmured:

"What other blessed land could have descended upon the world? To give rise to such an astonishing portent."

"A white rainbow piercing the sun, pointing straight to the Heavenly Court, and located in the East Sea—could it be the dragon clan? No, they no longer possess such ability."

"Then it must be Mugong; I never expected that scoundrel to actually have found such a blessed place."

Fuxi twitched his fingers, his eyes flashing with spiritual light, gazing upon the shifting of heavenly secrets.

Within this, Fuxi saw the qi‑fortune of the Immortal Dao suddenly surge, yet it was somewhat scattered.

It appeared as sharp as a precious sword, yet Fuxi perceived many problems within it, and he laughed sharply:

"This pattern of qi‑fortune looks like a sharp blade that could cut open the world's situation, yet upon closer inspection it turns out to be made of silver needles, scattered and unrestrained."

"If such a blade suffers even a slight setback, it will likely scatter and flee; we must break it."

Having said that, Fuxi's gaze grew sharper again, and he said: "However, if it undergoes tempering, it is not impossible to forge into a unified whole; but if one wishes to cleave the Heavenly Court's control over heaven and earth, it will likely not grant you this opportunity."

As soon as Fuxi's words fell, a voice suddenly rang from the horizon: "I am Mugong, the foremost male immortal, leading the wind of the Immortal Dao throughout the world, occupying the pure‑yang treasure seat; I ought to be the leader of all under heaven."

"Having today encountered heavenly affinity, comprehended the heavenly mechanism, coinciding with the emergence of Penglai Immortal Island, in accordance with the command of the Dao Ancestor, the Immortal Court shall be established after one yuan hui."

"In the wilderness, all who seek the Dao and possess immortal affinity may come to the East Sea shore, where great Luo divinities will spread the teachings, enabling you to glimpse the Great Dao."

"All who cultivate the Immortal Dao may become members of the Immortal Court and practice within the Penglai Immortal Realm."

After the Immortal Court was established, the lectures on the Great Dao never ceased, and anyone with the will could listen.

PS Yesterday I took a day off; I announced in the group that I was catching a flight; later I will make up for the flight result; when I got on the vehicle my phone fell; within five minutes someone picked it up; only after reporting to the police did I find the person who picked it up; but I couldn't reach them by phone, and they only replied to my message at noon today; then I took another vehicle for over two hours to go get it; after I got it back crying, I discovered the phone had been run over by a vehicle; the screen was completely smashed; the motherboard was bent; and it needed major repairs; it cost me over a thousand big bucks! Half a month of writing the book was wasted; after it was fixed I had to take another over-two-hour vehicle ride back; then I continued writing! It's painful. (End of chapter)
