Yingzhou Island was likewise covered in Innate Spiritual Fruits.
But at the center of the island was an especially eye-catching pool, radiating three-colored glimmers of sunlight, moonlight, and starlight, along with a mysterious aura that made one's heart tremble.
Qin Xuan's eyes instantly lit up.
Three Lights Divine Water!
A legendary, heaven-defying treasure of the highest rank in the Primordial World!
Sunlight Divine Water was violently destructive and could dissolve flesh, blood, and bone.
Moonlight Divine Water was formless and specifically invaded the Primordial Spirit.
Starlight Divine Water was vicious, devouring one's true spirit.
Taken individually, all three were deadly poisons that killed upon contact.
But once mixed together, they became the Primordial World's greatest healing holy medicine!
Its medicinal effects were simply beyond imagination. A destroyed body? An injured Primordial Spirit?
One drop would immediately restore one to their original state and could even reconstruct a physical body!
And before Qin Xuan's eyes?
It was not one or two drops, but an entire pool of Three Lights Divine Water!
Not to mention that when Nüwa created humans and attained sainthood in the future, she would use Nine Heavens Breathing Earth together with this Three Lights Divine Water.
The magnitude of this opportunity was simply impossible to measure!
Qin Xuan muttered to himself.
He wondered whether Nüwa had any Three Lights Divine Water in her possession.
If she did not...
Could he perhaps fleece some more benefits from Nüwa?
Right beside the pool of Three Lights Divine Water stood an ancient, vigorous giant tree.
Nine fruits hung from its branches. The words "Yellow Central" could faintly be seen on their surfaces, and they emitted intoxicating Dao charm and an alluring fragrance.
"Could this be... the Yellow Central Plum?"
Qin Xuan immediately thought of the Yellow Central Plum, one of the legendary Ten Innate Spiritual Roots.
Its preciousness was in no way inferior to the Three Lights Divine Water!
The Yellow Central Plum's growth cycle was extraordinarily long. It flowered once every Era Cycle, bore fruit once every Era Cycle, and ripened once every Era Cycle. It took a full three Era Cycles to produce nine fruits.
And these fruits were even more heaven-defying. Legend had it that whoever consumed one could achieve the rank of Great Golden Immortal on the spot!
Although Qin Xuan and the Ancestral Witches were already late-stage or even peak Great Golden Immortals and could not break through immediately after consuming them, the fruits could still greatly increase their cultivation and consolidate their realms.
Good stuff!
Qin Xuan did not hesitate in the slightest and directly called out to his brothers, "Start digging!"
The Ancestral Witches' eyes instantly gleamed green. They swung their shovels and charged forward!
Three Lights Divine Water?
They dug up the entire pool, water and all!
Yellow Central Plum?
They uprooted it completely!
When it came to this sort of work, the Ancestral Witches were absolute professionals!
A dozen or so shovels hacked away furiously. Before long, only a huge round pit remained in the center of the island, while the spot where the Yellow Central Plum had stood had become a giant pit more than a hundred zhang deep.
The East Sea was more than a thousand years' journey away from Pangu Temple.
They could not possibly stay on Three Immortal Island cultivating forever!
They might as well see whether they could transplant the Yellow Central Plum into Pangu Temple.
It held Father God's legacy. Perhaps it would be even more suitable for the Yellow Central Plum's growth?
After stripping Yingzhou Island clean, Qin Xuan led the Twelve Ancestral Witches to another spatial vortex and passed through it to the next immortal island.
The stone stele on the island bore the two characters: "Fangzhang."
The moment they stepped onto Fangzhang Island, an incomparably pure aura, far surpassing Primordial Aura, rushed toward them!
"This is... Chaos Qi!" Hou Tu was the first to react, saying softly.
She had gone to the Chaos Sea with Qin Xuan and had experienced this aura before.
However, the Chaos Qi in the Chaos Sea was filled with violent energy and could not be absorbed at all.
The Chaos Qi before them was incomparably pure, without the slightest impurity!
They followed the pure Chaos Qi to the center of the island and, as expected, discovered another pool.
Gray mist drifted above it, as though it could devour even light itself.
The mere wisps of aura it released made them feel Dao charm that transcended the dimensions of the Primordial World.
Qin Xuan stared at the gray pool, and wild joy instantly surged through his heart. He could not help blurting out:
"Chaos Spirit Liquid!"
The moment those words were spoken, all the Ancestral Witches erupted!
Chaos Spirit Liquid!
What kind of concept was that?
Legend said it could only be born when Primordial Chaos first opened. It contained the power of the Chaos origin and had heaven-defying effects on the cultivation of the physical body, Primordial Spirit, and laws.
This was a true supreme treasure of heaven and earth, far more precious than any Innate Spiritual Root!
Any Primordial Chaos mighty figure who saw it would go mad and seize it at any cost!
Since it was a supreme treasure of heaven and earth, they could not leave it here!
Qin Xuan exchanged glances with the Ancestral Witches, and identical green gleams flashed in all their eyes!
"Get to work!" At Qin Xuan's command, the Ancestral Witches once again raised their shovels and charged straight at the pool of Chaos Spirit Liquid.
A short while later, the central region of Fangzhang Island... unsurprisingly, was left with only another round pit.
After digging up the pool, the Ancestral Witches thoroughly ransacked the entire Fangzhang Island.
From Innate Spiritual Roots to inconspicuous Innate spiritual herbs, they took everything. They did not even spare the cracks between rocks!
The sacks on their backs grew more and more swollen, yet they were like bottomless pits. No matter how many treasures they stuffed inside, the sacks merely looked bulging on the surface.
Once the ransacking was complete, Qin Xuan and the Ancestral Witches immediately left Fangzhang Island through the spatial vortex and hurried back at top speed.
Upon returning to the East Sea, Qin Xuan glanced into the distance. Duke Dong was still meditating with his eyes closed, his face filled with joy and the corners of his mouth raised high.
Qin Xuan secretly laughed. When this fellow saw Three Immortal Island dug up three feet deep, would he explode with rage on the spot?
Qin Xuan gave Dijiang and Zhu Jiuyin a look. The two understood immediately, and the thirteen brothers grabbed their bags and fled, vanishing from above the East Sea in an instant.
Before leaving, Dijiang added several hundred spatial barriers around Duke Dong with a wicked grin, sealing him in tightly. Without outside interference, those barriers would last at least a thousand years.
Letting someone enjoy a beautiful dream for another thousand years could be considered boundless merit!
A thousand years passed leisurely.
Qin Xuan and the Twelve Ancestral Witches had returned to Pangu Temple.
At this moment, the atmosphere inside Pangu Temple was incomparably lively. They gathered together with excited expressions.
Before them lay all the gains they had obtained during this period!
There was a small, exquisite Jade Ruyi—the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi!
Beside it lay a green gourd that seemed to be greedily absorbing the Primordial Aura within the temple.
There was also a long ruler flickering with Merit Golden Light—the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler!
Even more eye-catching were two enormous pools!
One radiated three-colored glimmers and was an entire pool of Three Lights Divine Water!
The other was a gray expanse containing endless Dao charm—an entire pool of Chaos Spirit Liquid!
Between the two pools, a vigorous giant tree had firmly rooted itself in the rich soil of Pangu Temple. It was none other than the Yellow Central Plum!
Besides those, there were ten seemingly ordinary sacks with astonishingly broad waists!
The Ancestral Witches rubbed their hands together and eagerly overturned all ten sacks at once.
In an instant, the entire Pangu Temple was illuminated by dazzling treasure light!
Dense Primordial Aura, so thick it nearly materialized, instantly filled every corner!
Countless Innate spiritual herbs and all kinds of rare spiritual fruits poured from the sacks like a flood, rapidly piling up within Pangu Temple.
Before long, ten treasure mountains formed from various Innate spiritual herbs and fruits had appeared out of nowhere inside the temple!
Each towered several thousand zhang high. This was all the foundation Three Immortal Island had accumulated since the creation of heaven and earth!
The Ancestral Witches were instantly overjoyed. As they looked at the mountain-like heaps of treasure before them, green light shone from their eyes.
One after another, they foolishly began to chuckle, "Heh heh."
Zhurong even let out a howl, flew onto one of the treasure mountains, and rolled around amid the pile.
With Zhurong taking the lead, before long, aside from the relatively reserved Xuan Ming and Hou Tu, the remaining Ancestral Witches all lay atop different small mountains like Zhurong, their faces filled with satisfied smiles.
Qin Xuan stood to one side, watching his brothers roll about the treasure mountains without any concern for their image, like children who had received candy, and smiled knowingly as well.
This trip...
They had made an absolute killing!
A complete and utter killing!
East Sea.
The spatial barriers left behind by Dijiang finally disappeared.
Duke Dong abruptly rose to his feet. Looking at the stable spatial vortex before him, he could not help bursting into loud laughter:
"Ha ha ha ha! Opportunity! A great opportunity!"
Then, filled with smug delight, he stepped into the spatial vortex and entered Penglai Island directly.
However, when he clearly saw the scene before him, the smile on his face instantly froze, replaced by extreme shock, confusion, and disbelief!
"Th-this is... an immortal island?"
As far as the eye could see, the island looked as though a plague of locusts had swept through it. Not a blade of grass remained...
Still unwilling to accept it, he rushed into Yingzhou Island and Fangzhang Island.
The scenes before him made him collapse completely!
Every island looked as though Jieyin and Zhunti had visited it. It was as if even the sky had risen three feet higher...
Only bare land remained, along with giant pits where spiritual roots had been uprooted and dried puddles where spring water had been dug away...
A furious, despairing roar seemed to pierce through time and space, emerging from the spatial vortex and resounding throughout the entire East Sea!
"Who was it? Who on earth was it?!"
"Bandits! They did not even leave me a single blade of grass!"
After venting for a while, a flash of insight suddenly struck Duke Dong.
He seemed to have seen this dig-up-everything behavior somewhere before.
It was Jieyin and Zhunti from the west!
He had once seen those senior and junior disciples plundering treasures in the east. The devastation they left behind was exactly the same as these immortal islands!
