Chapter 0015: Finally Seeing Penglai, the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler

Cangyuan pointed to one spot: "Look there."

Bixiao followed the direction of Cangyuan's finger and saw a massive Primordial Immortal Stone standing tall before them!

Carved upon it were two vigorous Dao Script characters, brimming with ancient Dao resonance: Penglai!

"Is this Penglai Immortal Island?!"

Bixiao's small mouth parted slightly as she let out a startled cry!

It wasn't that she lacked worldly experience, but Penglai Immortal Island was different.

To put it plainly, even her master's Jin'ao Island fell three points short of this Penglai Immortal Island.

Bixiao hadn't expected that the ever-mysterious, rarely-seen Penglai Immortal Island would be found by Cangyuan.

"Junior Brother, how did you know Penglai Immortal Island was here?"

Bixiao stared at Cangyuan with wide, curious eyes as she asked.

Cangyuan smiled faintly: "A sudden impulse of the heart."

In the Prehistoric World, any opportunity whose origin was hard to explain could be brushed off as a sudden impulse of the heart.

"I see." Bixiao didn't grow suspicious; instead, she nodded her little head with an air of seriousness: "Junior Brother truly has deep fortune and blessings, to have found a Blessed Land of this level."

Cangyuan gave a slight smile: "Let's go. Let's see together what opportunities lie within Penglai Immortal Island."

Hearing this, Bixiao immediately became excited. She grabbed Cangyuan's hand and flew up impatiently: "Let's go, let's go."

Penglai Immortal Island was much like Fangzhang Immortal Island—the Innate Spiritual Energy was so dense it had turned liquid.

Extraordinarily thick.

Divine Radiance of the laws filled the sky.

Countless traces of Dao were everywhere.

Spirit roots, Immortal Stones, and Immortal Gold could be seen at every turn.

Cangyuan and Bixiao were no bandits, leaving nothing but barren earth in their wake or digging three feet into the ground.

They only took what they could use.

Just then!

A crimson streak of light flashed before their eyes.

It danced at an extremely fast speed.

It was not a living being.

Cangyuan moved in an instant, appearing before that crimson light.

He reached out and grabbed it.

The crimson light dissipated, revealing a crimson pearl firmly in Cangyuan's hand.

Cangyuan was greatly surprised: "An Innate Fire Spirit Pearl? I never expected it to be hidden here on Penglai Immortal Island."

That was right.

This crimson pearl was precisely a High Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure—the Innate Fire Spirit Pearl!

Counting this one, Cangyuan now had two of the Innate Five Elements Spirit Pearls in his hands.

If he could gather all five, he could manifest the power of a Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure!

Bixiao curiously leaned in, her speed and reaction half a beat slower than Cangyuan's.

"Heh, this little spiritual treasure isn't convinced yet."

Buzz buzz buzz!

This Innate Fire Spirit Pearl had not yet developed sentience.

Captured by Cangyuan, it trembled violently on instinct, even erupting with scorching lifebound spirit fire, trying to break free from Cangyuan's grip.

"Once you're in my hands, there's no chance of you running away."

Cangyuan grinned.

He tossed the Innate Fire Spirit Pearl straight into the Cangyuan Realm, letting the Innate Water Spirit Pearl catch up with its old friend.

"Senior Sister, Penglai Immortal Island is so vast that exploring it all in one day is impossible. How about we split up and search the island?"

Cangyuan looked at Bixiao and proposed.

"Ah?"

"Sure, sure!"

Bixiao was stunned for a moment, then immediately agreed with excitement.

If they split up, didn't that mean she could go wherever she wanted?

That was fantastic.

A bird caged for too long yearns for freedom.

It had been over three Yuanhui since Bixiao joined the Jie Sect, and she had always been kept on Three Immortal Island under Yunxiao's watch, so she yearned deeply for the freedom of the outside world.

"Don't worry, Junior Brother. Since this place is the opportunity land you discovered, everything here naturally belongs to you."

Bixiao patted Cangyuan on the shoulder, putting on an air of seasoned authority. "If your senior sister comes across any treasures while traveling, I'll definitely bring them back for you."

Cangyuan smiled. "Treasures go to those fated to find them. Senior Sister need not trouble herself. What one obtains depends entirely on their own fortune and destiny."

The two parted ways.

Each explored on their own.

Cangyuan's goal was clear.

That was the central area of Penglai Immortal Island!

Generally speaking, the Boundary Stele was located in the central region.

Cangyuan planned to go over and refine the Boundary Stele of Penglai Immortal Island. Once he did, he would gain a god's-eye view within Penglai Immortal Island, seeing all, with penetrating insight reaching the heavens.

By then, no matter how deeply that ruler was hidden, it would not escape Cangyuan's divine sight!

Cangyuan rode the Heart Piercing Lock, shuttling through Penglai Immortal Island!

He fled at top speed.

Heading toward the island's center.

Along the way, Cangyuan discovered quite a few innate spiritual roots, which he transplanted into his Inner World.

Now, Cangyuan had twenty-five Inner Worlds. Aside from the first one he opened, the Cangyuan Realm, the remaining twenty-four worlds were all in an empty, unused state.

So, Cangyuan chose one world, specifically for planting innate spiritual roots!

He named it: Evergreen Realm!

Aside from the innate spiritual roots, Cangyuan also discovered another Mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure hidden within the Innate Restrictions—the Soul Nurturing Banner!

This spiritual treasure had no power of slaughter, nor any effect in aiding cultivation. Its only ability was to nurture souls: placing a weak or even shattered Primordial Spirit or soul into the Soul Nurturing Banner would allow the banner to slowly nourish and restore the soul and spirit.

Its use was singular, but it was still an Innate Spiritual Treasure!

The kind that would be fought over by many Innate Beings in the Prehistoric World.

Putting away the Soul Nurturing Banner, Cangyuan continued on his way.

He flew for who knows how long.

From afar, Cangyuan spotted a towering tree reaching the sky!

There, deep within the clouds atop the mountain peak, an ancient tea tree stood towering. Its main trunk coiled like a dragon, covered in profound Dao patterns, as if recording the vicissitudes of time since the world's creation, exuding an ancient and vast aura.

Light rippled among its branches and leaves. Each leaf was different: some were wrapped in chaotic energy, some shimmered like stars, others seemed woven from water and fire.

They swayed without wind, emitting the sound of the Great Dao in their rustling, like a Saint whispering.

Dao resonance filled the air beneath the tree. Golden Lotuses surged from the ground, and Innate Spiritual Energy condensed into solid Yingluo, hanging down like tassels.

Without even drinking from it, merely sitting quietly beside it allowed one's heart to merge with the Dao. The obscure principles of the laws that had once been difficult to grasp were now as clear as looking at the lines in one's palm.

"This is!?"

Cangyuan had never seen this divine tree before, but the moment he laid eyes on it, its name surfaced in his heart: one of the ten Supreme Innate Spiritual Roots—the Dao Comprehension Tea Tree!

In the Prehistoric World, spiritual roots of heaven and earth were divided into two types: Supreme Innate Spiritual Roots and other spiritual roots.

Famous ones like the Ginseng Fruit Tree, the Ren Shui Immortal Peach Tree, and the Yellow Middle Plum were all Supreme Innate Spiritual Roots!

And the Dao Comprehension Tea Tree before him was also ranked among the Supreme Innate Spiritual Roots!

Moreover, it was of immense help in aiding cultivation and comprehending the Dao!

"This tree is fated to be mine!"

Cangyuan immediately poured more power into his magic, and the speed of the Heart Piercing Lock climbed another level!

The closer he got to the Dao Comprehension Tea Tree, the denser the true essence of the Dao became. Under the influence of the tree's aura, Cangyuan's Spirit Platform was clear and bright. Some places he had never understood before now gave him faint insights.

"What is that stuck in the ground beneath the Dao Comprehension Tea Tree?"

Approaching the tree, Cangyuan noticed a stone tablet inserted into the open ground before it.

Wait!

That was no stone tablet!

It was a ruler!

The ruler's material was neither metal nor jade. Its overall color was a noble purple-gold, and it was surrounded by an ancient aura, as if it had existed since time immemorial.

Great Dao Merit flowed endlessly across the ruler's body, and countless Great Dao Runes were born and extinguished within it. In the center were two characters written in Great Dao Divine Script: Measure Heaven!

The moment he saw those two characters, Cangyuan's breathing became heavy, and his eyes were filled with disbelief: "That is... the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler!"
