Deep within Penglai in the East Sea.
In a cave dwelling filled with the mist of immortal spiritual energy, East Prince Gong sat cross-legged on a cushion, immortal light flowing around his body.
A crystal-clear immortal pill hovered above his head.
The pill was continuously releasing pure Creation essence, healing the hidden injuries he sustained from the battle in the Thirty-three Heavens.
"This Nine Heavens Creation Pill provided by the System is truly wondrous."
East Prince Gong slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and opened his eyes.
His previously unstable aura had stabilized once more, even becoming subtly stronger than before the battle.
This was the power of the System.
As long as he had enough points, he could exchange them for rare treasures from all the worlds.
Just as East Prince Gong was about to continue his seclusion to fully consolidate his realm, A rapid streak of immortal light pierced through layers of restrictions and landed before him, transforming into a jade slip.
"Hmm?"
East Prince Gong frowned slightly. His divine sense swept over it, and he discovered it was a message from a spy he had planted in the Demon Court.
A moment later, a terrifying glint erupted in his eyes, and he stood up abruptly!
The information in the jade slip was extremely clear:
Tai Yi led the main force of the Demon Court on an expedition to Buzhou Mountain, and a decisive battle with the Witch Clan was in full swing!
Within the Demon Court, although some garrisons remained in the Thirty-three Heavens, almost all of the Quasi-Saint level combat power had been dispatched!
"Good! Good! Good!"
East Prince Gong uttered the word "good" three times in a row, a look of ecstatic joy mixed with ferocity appearing on his face.
"Tai Yi, oh Tai Yi, you actually dared to march on the Witch Clan? You've truly been blinded by victory!"
He paced the cave dwelling with his hands behind his back, growing more excited the more he thought about it.
"The Demon Court just acquired the Thirty-three Heavens, and its foundation is unstable. Tai Yi is rushing to gnaw on the hard bone of the Witch Clan... This is simply a heaven-sent opportunity!"
He suddenly stopped, a calculating glint in his eyes.
Currently, Kunpeng remained to guard the Thirty-three Heavens.
He wouldn't be able to breach the Demon Court in one go, and might even run into the returning Demon Clan army.
However...
"If I can seize this opportunity to take the Lunar Star, not only will I sever Tai Yi's chance for marriage and crush his fortune, but I can also..."
East Prince Gong's breathing quickened slightly.
Xi He and Chang Xi!
Those two exceptionally aloof Lunar goddesses!
If he could "invite" these two goddesses back to Penglai while Tai Yi was on his expedition...
It would not only greatly enhance the prestige and strength of the Immortal Court but also slap Tai Yi in the face!
The thought of Tai Yi fighting for his life on the front lines, only to return and find the goddesses he admired under his command, made East Prince Gong want to laugh to the heavens.
"This is a perfect opportunity to kill two birds with one stone, no, three birds with one stone!"
Without further hesitation, he immediately issued an order:
"Gather all the remaining immortal generals in Penglai at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level and above, and follow this Emperor on the expedition!"
"Target—the Lunar Star!"
The Lunar Star.
Eternal clear radiance, moonlight like water, the Guanghan Palace was silent.
Xi He and Chang Xi sat opposite each other. Between them was a jade table with two cups of clear tea, wisps of steam rising.
Xi He's slender hands brewed the tea, her movements flowing like water, carrying an ancient, unchanging coolness and tranquility.
Chang Xi, however, was restless. A rare anxiety appeared on her small face, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes.
"Sister," she finally couldn't help but speak, her voice a little dry, "I... I just feel uneasy."
Xi He raised her eyes, her cool gaze falling on Chang Xi, a hint of confusion flashing within. "Uneasy? With our cultivation, impervious to billions of years of cold and heat, and karma difficult to touch, why would you feel uneasy?"
Chang Xi opened her mouth but didn't know how to explain.
Should she tell her sister that she felt uneasy because she knew the "plot" and had a premonition that East Prince Gong might cause trouble while Tai Yi was away?
But this Great Desolation was already unrecognizable.
East Prince Gong had obtained the Myriad Immortals Array early, and Di Jun was still hiding and not appearing. Who knew what would happen later.
Her System was a "sticking close" System, and most of the rewards had been converted into spiritual treasures to protect her sister and pills to improve her sister's cultivation.
Although I have reached the mid-stage of Hun Yuan Golden Immortal through listening to the Great Dao and arduous cultivation, when it comes to actual combat and trump cards...
"Perhaps I'm overthinking it." Xi He gently pushed a cup of tea towards Chang Xi, the warm moonlight rippling in the tea. "Calm your heart."
Chang Xi picked up the teacup and was about to drink.
Suddenly!
Outside the Lunar Star, the ancient, cold, and gentle Lunar Great Array, which had been guarding it, violently trembled!
It was like a boulder being dropped into a calm lake!
Buzz--!!!
The Great Array let out a mournful cry of being unable to bear the burden, and cracks spread at an astonishing speed.
Chang Xi abruptly stood up, moonlight condensing in her hand, her small face instantly turning icy cold.
Xi He also furrowed her delicate brows, put down her teacup, and a cool moonlight flowed around her, causing the temperature in the Guanghan Palace to plummet.
The divine senses of the two women swept out instantly.
They saw that outside the Lunar Star, it had been enveloped by a hazy immortal light, as if containing countless stellar trajectories, at some unknown time.
Within the immortal light, the figure of East Prince Gong stood proudly.
He wore a purple-gold crown, a nine-dragon immortal robe, and held a Dragon Head Crutch. His aura was even more unfathomable than the last time they saw him in the Thirty-three Heavens.
What shocked the two women even more was.
Behind East Prince Gong, faintly discernible, were over a hundred immortal generals at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level, each occupying a mysterious position.
They held formation flags in their hands and chanted incantations.
Countless streams of pure immortal spiritual energy were connected to the formation flags, transforming into a colossal formation diagram that covered the sky and obscured the sun.
It firmly enveloped the entire Lunar Star.
Xi He's eyes narrowed. She recognized some of the origins of this formation but felt it was somewhat familiar yet different, with many strange variations.
"It's the Immortal Trapping Array."
East Prince Gong laughed heartily, his voice penetrating the violently fluctuating barrier, carrying a confident arrogance:
"Fellow Daoists Xi He and Chang Xi, I, the Emperor, have personally arrived. Why don't you open the barrier and invite me in for a chat?"
"East Prince Gong!" Chang Xi's willow brows shot up, and she shouted sternly, "How dare you! How dare you forcibly intrude upon the Lunar Star? Do you really think my sister and I are made of mud?!"
"Forcible intrusion? Not at all, not at all."
East Prince Gong leisurely stroked his beard, his eyes flashing with greed and conquest.
"I, the Emperor, sincerely invite you two fellow Daoists to go to Penglai Immortal Island to discuss the Great Dao together and share immortal bliss."
He had already inquired that Xi He and Chang Xi of the Great Desolation had profound cultivation and were by no means mere decorative figures.
Therefore, when he came, he had spent a considerable amount of points to exchange for the Immortal Trapping Array from the System.
The purer the immortal body and the higher the cultivation, the greater the confinement and restraint within it.
"You are seeking death!"
Chang Xi trembled with rage.
The thing she could least tolerate was someone having designs on her sister!
Let alone someone like East Prince Gong!
