Honghuang Fuxi: Nuwa, I Want You to Help Me Cultivate 47

Although Fuxi had yet to do anything that would affect the great tides of the age, that did not mean he could not—or dared not—do so.

Fuxi was not his disciple to begin with, so he could not conveniently restrain or discipline him too harshly, nor could he make Fuxi obediently remain on Phoenix Perch Mountain to cultivate.

Fuxi's status itself meant that he had few attachments or reservations. He did not need to worry about offending or angering anyone.

In the entire Hong Huang World, there was basically no one but Hongjun whom he would not dare provoke or fear.

Such a Honghuang Rascal was practically a walking landmine that could explode at any moment, capable of triggering chaos at any time.

Even Hongjun, a Saint-level figure, found someone like this a headache to deal with.

"It seems I can only be forced to step in myself."

Hongjun sighed softly, somewhat regretting that he had not taken Fuxi as his disciple back then.

Azure clouds pervaded Zixiao Palace, and Hongjun's figure flickered in and out of sight within them.

Meanwhile, outside the vortex around the Three Immortal Islands of the East Sea, the appearance of that Heavenly Dao Aura also caught the attention of Eastern Prince Gong and the others.

Though Eastern Prince Gong's cultivation was formidable, his breadth of experience could not compare to Ao Qing, the Dragon Clan's patriarch.

When he saw the Heavenly Dao Aura appear, he was more puzzled than anything, for he had never encountered such an aura before.

However, he noticed that the four Dragon Clan experts at the peak of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal had utterly astonished, dazed expressions, as though they had seen something extraordinary.

He looked to Ao Qing and asked, "Patriarch Ao Qing, do you know anything about this aura?"

Ao Qing did not immediately answer Eastern Prince Gong's question. Instead, he stared at the Heavenly Dao Aura for a long while.

After a while, Ao Qing said, "I seem to have sensed this aura from the Ancestral Dragon before. But as for what exactly it is and what use it has, I know nothing at all."

If Hongjun had been present, he should have been able to explain Ao Qing's words.

The Ancestral Dragon had, after all, been one of the foremost experts of the Honghuang Continent in his day. Bearing the fortune of his race and Heaven's favor, he would naturally have received the reward of a Heavenly Dao Aura.

Unfortunately, the Ancestral Dragon had perished countless years ago, and the Dragon Clan had long since lost all records concerning the Heavenly Dao Aura.

Eastern Prince Gong stroked his chin and pondered for a moment before saying:

"The Three Immortal Islands of the East Sea are a providential Opportunity nurtured by Heaven and Earth. Their emergence is likely no easy matter. This vortex contains the mighty power of Heaven and Earth; it cannot be broken by ordinary people."

"Therefore, I suspect that this aura was specially sent down by Heaven to help the Three Immortal Islands emerge. It has come to help us eliminate this dangerous vortex."

"This is Heaven helping me!"

Eastern Prince Gong raised both hands high and cheered excitedly.

Eastern Prince Gong believed himself to be Heaven and Earth's favored child. Otherwise, the Dao Ancestor would not have chosen him as the Head of Male Immortals.

And this aura was very likely Hongjun's handiwork—the Saint acting to help him.

Seeing Eastern Prince Gong so excited, Ao Qing and the others cheered along with him.

Though they did not know whether Eastern Prince Gong's explanation was correct, neither did they have any evidence proving him wrong, so they temporarily accepted his words.

Besides, other than an Opportunity like the Three Immortal Islands of the East Sea, they could not imagine what else could trigger such a heavenly phenomenon.

As the Heavenly Dao Aura rushed toward the enormous vortex upon the sea, Eastern Prince Gong shouted, "Look! This mysterious aura has entered the vortex. It must be here to stop it. Once the vortex disperses, it will be the perfect time for us to enter the Three Immortal Islands of the East Sea."

"Heaven aids the Dragon Clan! Heaven aids me, Eastern Prince Gong!"

To proclaim that he had received Heaven's favor, Eastern Prince Gong deliberately shouted at the top of his lungs. His voice even traveled beyond the Dragon Clan's encirclement and reached the immortals watching from afar.

Those immortals stared in surprise at the Heavenly Dao Aura plunging into the depths of the vortex, clicking their tongues in wonder.

"Could this aura truly be helping the Dragon Clan deal with the vortex?"

"Hasn't the Dragon Clan declined? Why can they still receive Heaven's favor?"

"This man calls himself Eastern Prince Gong. Could he be the lord of the Immortal Court?"

"The Immortal Court? That newly risen force on the Honghuang Continent? Why would the Immortal Court collude with the Dragon Clan?"

The observing immortals discussed fervently, and their chatter made Eastern Prince Gong immensely pleased with himself.

This was precisely the effect he wanted.

Before obtaining the Opportunity, he would use this phenomenon to raise his own prestige.

Yet Eastern Prince Gong did not know that after the Heavenly Dao Aura entered the vortex, it did not halt the vortex as he had imagined. Instead, it shot straight toward the small island of Top-grade Immortal Stone situated among the Three Immortal Islands.

After entering the Immortal Stone island, the profound Heavenly Dao Aura flew directly before Fuxi and merged into his three Flowers of the Great Dao.

Fuxi was somewhat surprised by the Heavenly Dao Aura, but once it fused into his Flowers of the Great Dao, he gained a measure of enlightenment regarding it.

He could sense that his affinity with the Great Dao had clearly increased, and he had also become closer to the Heavenly Dao.

This was unquestionably a tremendous boon for Fuxi.

Even before breaking through to the Quasi-Saint realm, Fuxi had entertained the idea of Law Proving.

However, his own ability to comprehend laws was not as heaven-defying as that of the Innate God-Demons. Relying on laws to prove the Dao would be exceedingly difficult for him.

Now that his affinity with the laws of the Great Dao had increased, the difficulty of comprehending laws had also lessened considerably.

Alongside cultivating Slaying Three Corpses Proving, he could also attempt to comprehend laws.

Moreover, Fuxi had also become far closer to the Heavenly Dao.

Previously, he could only barely sense Great Immortal Yang Mei's hatred for him within the Heavenly Dao. Now, he could clearly sense the red storm clouds within it.

Moreover, Fuxi felt that both his true body and Good Corpse were draped in a layer of invisible gauze.

This invisible gauze was the protection bestowed by the Heavenly Dao.

Fuxi could sense that the aura of this gauze was exceedingly profound. Though he did not know how strong its defenses were, it was definitely no mere useless trinket.

This gauze was like robes bestowed by an emperor. It might not withstand blades or spears, but it represented the emperor's—namely, the Heavenly Dao's—majesty.

The Three Immortal Island Emerges

With the Heavenly Dao Gauze Robe, anyone who wished to kill him might have to face the Heavenly Dao's wrath and condemnation.

However, this invisible gauze was merely one manifestation of the Heavenly Dao's protection. It could completely transform into an invisible aura and merge into Fuxi's fleshly body.

After feeling the various benefits brought to him by the Heavenly Dao Aura, Fuxi was greatly delighted.

With the protection of the Heavenly Dao Gauze Robe, even Hongjun could not easily make a move against him.

This meant that he could be even more unrestrained in his actions throughout the Honghuang Continent.

Of course, Fuxi believed that Hongjun surely still possessed many methods capable of crushing and killing him. He would not recklessly throw himself at Hongjun's spearpoint.

Though he could act a little more wantonly, that did not mean he could casually court death.

If he truly enraged Hongjun, there was indeed no one below Saint that Hongjun would not dare kill.

Now that the severing of his Good Corpse was complete, he had entered the early stage of Quasi-Saint. It was time for him to leave Three Immortal Island and return to Phoenix Perch Mountain.

Thus, Fuxi brought forth the Seven-Colored Glazed Treasure Gourd and collected the Three Lights Divine Water lake beneath him, the Top-grade Immortal Stone islet, and the Twelve-grade White Lotus of Purity into it.

After doing this, Fuxi planned to return the way he had come and leave Three Immortal Island through the vortex.

Yet, to Fuxi's surprise, the small world where Three Immortal Island was located began to shake violently. The space throughout the little world trembled, and cracks in space appeared in the sky.

Beyond those spatial cracks, Fuxi actually saw a familiar face.

That was right—the owner of that face was Eastern Prince Gong, waiting with eager anticipation for Three Immortal Island to emerge.

When Eastern Prince Gong saw the vortex subside and Three Immortal Island about to emerge, he excitedly shouted to Ao Qing, "What did I tell you, Clan Chief Ao Qing? I was right! That aura is Heaven coming to help us!"

Ao Qing also said pleasantly, "Eastern Prince Gong is blessed by Heaven and Earth, with deep fortune and favor. It truly makes the rest of us green with envy."

Hearing the conversation between Eastern Prince Gong and Ao Qing, Fuxi's expression turned strange.

However, Fuxi could see Eastern Prince Gong through the spatial cracks because he had grasped part of the Space Law.

Eastern Prince Gong had not grasped the Space Law. He could only see the enormous vortex gradually coming to rest, and could not see Fuxi within the little world at all.

"I wonder what his reaction will be when Eastern Prince Gong enters Three Immortal Island and discovers the surprise I left for him?"

A wicked smile curled across Fuxi's lips.

"Or should I give him an even bigger surprise?"

A new idea suddenly sprouted in Fuxi's heart.

Eastern Prince Gong, who had been waiting outside the vortex all this time, had no idea that disaster was about to befall him.

As the enormous vortex gradually came to a stop and the sea surface slowly returned to calm, a piercing sound of shattering suddenly rang out from beneath the sea.

The shattering sound was incomparably shrill; even the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals present could not block it out.

Ao Qing explained to Eastern Prince Gong, "Eastern Prince Gong, the space of the little world is shattering. Once the little world completely collapses, Three Immortal Island will emerge."

Eastern Prince Gong nodded excitedly, his gaze burning hot.

"Rumble!"

As the piercing sounds of space shattering gradually faded, three vast immortal islands burst directly through the tranquil surface like flood dragons emerging from the sea, raising monstrous waves that soared into the heavens.

"Finally, I've waited for it! My, Eastern Prince Gong's, Opportunity has arrived!"

Eastern Prince Gong cried out in excitement.

Looking at the radiant spiritual roots and Top-grade Immortal Stones upon the Three Immortal Island, he impatiently said to Ao Qing and the others, "Clan Chief Ao Qing, let's go take a look on the immortal islands together."

Ao Qing stopped Eastern Prince Gong and said, "Eastern Prince Gong, do not be hasty. The Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal who entered Three Immortal Island has yet to emerge. The urgent matter is to force him out first."

At those words, Eastern Prince Gong's expression turned solemn. "That's right. We absolutely cannot let him steal my Opportunity."

Ao Qing raised an arm and shouted to the Dragon Clan warriors surrounding Three Immortal Island, "All Dragon Clan warriors, form the Prison Heaven Great Formation! Not even a flying insect is to be allowed to escape!"

Before the Dragon Clan warriors, Ao Qing displayed the authority of a clan chief.

At Ao Qing's command, the Dragon Clan warriors all released their immortal power and jointly unleashed the Dragon Clan's peerless formation.

An enormous purple barrier directly enclosed all three immortal islands. The barrier was astonishingly thick, and its might was likewise terrifying.

Seeing the Dragon Clan's Prison Heaven Great Formation, Eastern Prince Gong asked excitedly, "Clan Chief Ao Qing, is this the Dragon Clan's legendary Prison Heaven Great Formation? Can this formation trap that Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal?"

Ao Qing said confidently, "Please rest assured, Eastern Prince Gong. This Prison Heaven Great Formation is one of my Dragon Clan's supreme formations. No Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal has any chance of escaping!"

Hearing such certainty in Ao Qing's tone, Eastern Prince Gong said to him gratefully, "The Dragon Clan has spared no effort for my Immortal Court. I certainly will not disappoint the Dragon Clan. Of the Opportunities on Three Immortal Island this time, the Dragon Clan may take thirty percent."

Originally, the agreement between Eastern Prince Gong and the Dragon Clan had been that the Dragon Clan would only receive a piece of land on the Honghuang Continent, while all the Opportunities on Three Immortal Island would belong to the Immortal Court.
