Fuxi and Nuwa exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with astonishment and emotion.
Fuxi calculated with his fingers, the mysterious hexagrams between his fingers flickering uncertainly, ultimately culminating in a long sigh:
"Chaos Fragment give birth to wondrous treasures, and the rise and fall of the three islands stabilize the Universe. Qing Huan Qinghuan's fortune is truly... unfathomable!"
Nuwa's beautiful eyes sparkled with pure admiration and a hint of joy as a Creation, and she smiled sweetly:
"This is a place blessed by the Creation heaven and earth. Fellow Daoist, to be able to govern this blessed land is truly a destiny ordained by Heavenly Mandate."
Upon hearing this, Qing Huan smiled faintly and shook his head slightly.
"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me. The Five Immortals Island overseas are so ethereal and distant; I was merely fortunate enough to obtain this corner of Yingzhou."
As for these two companion islands..." His gaze swept over the two magnificent islands, his tone calm yet undeniably authoritative.
"It is not among the places like Fangzhang, Daiyu, Yuanjiao, or Yingzhou; it was merely a serendipitous combination that brought us together, and it is simply a matter of fate."
Having said that, he pointed his finger, and the seemingly invisible yet incredibly resilient Innate Grand Formation light curtain Yingzhou Island silently cracked open like a water curtain, creating a gap just large enough for a few people to pass through. A surge of innate spiritual Innate Spiritual Qi, a hundred times richer and purer than the outside world, mixed with the ancient Daoist charm of the Primordial Chaos, rushed in, instantly invigorating everyone's spirits.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please."
Qing Huan was the first to step in.
Suppressing the turmoil in their hearts, everyone followed closely behind.
Once you pass through the great formation, it's like entering another world. The world is filled with not ordinary spiritual energy, but the more primordial and profound chaotic energy transformed and harmonized into innate primordial primordial energy!
Taking a deep breath, one feels refreshed throughout the body, clears the mind, and even feels the barriers to cultivation loosen.
Celestial birds and auspicious beasts can be seen everywhere; they have all become intelligent and bow their heads in respect when they see Qing Huan.
Qing Huan landed gracefully, his toes barely touching the plaza floor covered with innate warm jade when two small figures, like swallows returning to their nest, flew over with clear, joyful childlike voices:
"Welcome home, sir!"
Her voice was childlike and clear, like the tinkling of a spring.
The newcomers were the two Innate Lifeform beings transformed by Qing Huan into Transformation, the boy named Yuan Yu. He was exquisitely beautiful, with two small buns on his head, wearing a short shirt with a green lotus leaf pattern, and his bare, tender little feet seemed to float on lotus blossoms with every step, exuding a pure and holy aura.
The girl's name was Yuan Lian. She was lovely and adorable, with her hair styled in two buns. She wore a moon-white silk dress with cloud patterns, and her body was surrounded by a warm, jade-like luster. Her movements were accompanied by the soft tinkling of her jade pendants.
The two little ones ran up and bowed respectfully, their big, bright eyes peeking at the unfamiliar guest behind the master, displaying both childlike curiosity and the pure innocence of nascent wisdom.
Looking at the two children born from primordial lotus flowers and primordial jade stones, Qing Huan felt a genuine warmth in his eyes and gently patted their little heads.
"Yes, they're back. Yuan Lian, Yuan Yu, quickly prepare some spiritual fruits Immortal Brew produced on the island. We have distinguished guests arriving today, so we must treat them well."
"Yes, sir! We'll go right away!"
Yuan Lian responded crisply and grabbed Yuan Yu's still somewhat shy little hand.
A fleeting lotus shadow appeared beneath Yuan Lian, and Yuan Yu's body shimmered with jade light. The two little ones moved with light steps, as if treading on empty air, and gracefully headed towards the islands of "Seven Views" and "Ten Thousand Immortals".
"Fellow Daoist Qing Huan"
Nuwa watched the two boys' departing figures, her eyes filled with even greater affection. She, possessing the Dao of Creation, was most sensitive to such pure, innocent, and exceptionally potential Innate Lifeform.
"I never imagined that these two children you guided would not only have pure foundations and innate spirituality, but also be so clever and lively, making them so endearing."
"To receive guidance and enlightenment from a fellow Daoist, to serve by their side, and to hear the profound teachings of the Great Dao—for the two of them, this was truly an unparalleled Creation of luck that defied the heavens and changed their destiny."
Nuwa spoke sincerely, with genuine admiration in her voice.
Qing Huan smiled and bowed to Nuwa.
"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, you flatter me. These two children are of pure and kind nature, and are also part of the spiritual energy nurtured on my island. To receive your praise is their good fortune."
After speaking, a Qing Huan cloud rose from beneath Qinghuan's feet, carrying him towards the most majestic and precipitous peak in the center of the immortal island, a peak that was entirely cast from jade and divine gold and shrouded in endless rosy clouds and auspicious mist.
At the summit, a magnificent and imposing palace stands quietly—the very core of Qing Huan's Dao Field, the Chuyuan Palace.
Everyone displayed their unique abilities and followed closely behind. The closer they got to the divine peak, the stronger and more profound the Hunyuan Dao Charm that originated from chaos and harmonized Yin and Yang became.
The Chuyuan Palace is not the usual magnificent palace. The entire palace seems to have been carved from a single piece of "Creation Lapis Lazuli" born at the Primordial Chaos. It is simple and elegant, with smooth lines and full of Great Dao truths.
The palace gates soared like the gates to heaven, neither gold nor jade, but flowing with a chaotic luster.
However, just as everyone was about to reach the palace gate, their eyes were all drawn to a strange Innate Spiritual Root on the left side of the palace gate!
The tree was no more than ten feet tall, its branches twisted like dragons, and its bark was a deep, dark black color, covered with natural chaotic patterns.
What's most peculiar is its leaves, which are not emerald green, but a deep purple that seems to shimmer with chaotic starlight.
Even more terrifying was that the endless, raging Chaos Qi, like rivers flowing into the sea, was greedily devoured and absorbed by the countless purple leaves!
And those Chaos Qi, after being transformed through the tree trunk and branches, actually emitted the purest and gentlest Innate Spiritual Qi from the tips of each leaf!
The spiritual energy was so pure that it condensed into a misty, seven-colored spiritual fog, which permeated the entire Chuyuan Palace, making the palace look like a fairyland in the clouds!
"This... what kind of Innate Spiritual Root is this?!"
Tai Yi, with his most impatient temperament, stared wide-eyed at the sky, his face filled with disbelief.
"How could it so domineeringly devour the Chaos Qi and then transform it into Innate Spiritual Qi that nourishes all things?!"
Of the Ten Innate Spiritual Roots of the Primordial I know of, there is absolutely none like this!
The Chaos Qi is the mother energy of all things, yet it is also wild and untamed. Even a mere trace of it would risk being assimilated and dissolved by ordinary Golden Immortal. How could this spiritual root possibly use it as nourishment?
The Ancestor Minghe had visited once before, and seeing the astonished expressions of the crowd, a strange sense of superiority arose within him. He coughed lightly, stepped forward with his hands behind his back, and, a hint of awe in his blood-red eyes, explained:
"Fellow Tai Yi, this tree is called the 'Chaos Maple Forest Tree.' According to Brother Qing Huan, it is a monstrous species born of chaos. Its only extraordinary feature is its innate talent of 'devouring chaos and transforming it into the innate.'"
Fellow Daoist, behold the Innate Spiritual Qi that transforms mist and condenses into liquid on this island; it is all thanks to this tree.
One day of cultivation here is equivalent to a hundred days of arduous training outside. All the creatures on the island, whether they are Plant Spirits or mythical birds and beasts, benefit from its nourishment. Their foundations are stronger, their intelligence is enhanced, and their cultivation progress is far beyond what can be achieved outside.
Minghe paused, then added meaningfully.
"Such extraordinary power, capable of seizing the Creation of heaven and earth, is worthy of being called a living 'Ancestor of Innate Spiritual Veins'."
