The Twelve Sea-Calming Pearls, Moving Immortal Islands?

Within the Daiyu Immortal Island, the density of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy was no less than that of Yuan Jiao Immortal Island.

But perhaps because Old Ancestor Five Elements had already swept through it, only lower-grade and mid-grade spiritual roots and treasures remained.

Moreover, Yuan Jiao Immortal Island still had the Five Needles Pine and the Five Elements Pagoda;

Within this Daiyu Immortal Island, however, there was no treasure that could catch Tongtian's eye.

"This Old Thing really cleaned it out clean. Fourth Brother, I'm afraid there isn't even a single high-grade treasure left on Daiyu Immortal Island."

Tongtian extended his Spiritual Sense to probe in every direction, but after a moment, he shook his head in disappointment.

Though there were quite a few Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures on this immortal island, which would be a considerable opportunity for an ordinary great cultivator, before the two of them, anything below high-grade was as good as chicken ribs.

"Not quite. On this Daiyu Immortal Island, there is still one treasure of passable quality—it's just hidden rather deeply." Xuanyuan gently shook his head.

Indeed, unlike the Three Immortal Islands suspended above the East Sea, which were watched by the Heavenly Dao, Old Ancestor Five Elements dared not enter them out of fear;

These two immortal islands that had fallen into the Return to Ruins, because they were almost completely cut off from heavenly secrets, had been stripped clean by him, leaving only things he deemed unworthy.

Yet, beneath the Great Dao, a thread of life was always left behind.

Even someone as powerful as Old Ancestor Five Elements could miss certain treasures.

In fact, if Xuanyuan himself did not possess the Chaos Pearl, he too would have been unable to discover such a treasure.

"There's still a treasure? Where is it hidden?" Tongtian was slightly taken aback.

"Far beyond the horizon, yet right before your eyes."

Xuanyuan looked down at Daiyu Immortal Island, a smile spreading across his face as Chaos Divine Light flickered at his brow.

"Hum!"

The next instant, the Chaos Pearl within Xuanyuan's Nascent Soul, swirling with immeasurable radiance, trembled violently, and profound Great Dao Runes swam like living things.

"Rustle!"

In a flash, the space and time around Daiyu Immortal Island twisted and overlapped like ocean waves, becoming tangible.

"Come out!"

Xuanyuan made his move, pouring Grand Unity Magic Power into the restrictions of the Chaos Pearl. The Chaos World Projection spread outward from his body in all directions for millions of li, completely enveloping Daiyu Immortal Island.

"Roar!"

"Growl!"

From deep within the tidal waves of time and space came roars like dragons and tigers, and twelve rays of rainbow light pierced through the raging waves, Soaring Upwards.

Wherever they passed, countless microcosmic worlds continuously collapsed and reformed, and myriad celestial phenomena flickered faintly within the radiance.

Finally, the light converged, and twelve pearls manifested, linking head to tail in the air. Five-colored light interwove into a mysterious formation, faintly resonating with the Chaos Pearl within Xuanyuan's Nascent Soul.

"There really is a treasure?"

"But each of these pearls alone seems to be only a mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure; the combined power of all twelve is merely comparable to a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure."

"It shouldn't be worth such serious attention from you, Fourth Brother, should it? I suspect there must be a reason behind this?"

Tongtian looked at the twelve pearls and spoke with some confusion.

"These are the Sea-Calming Pearls. Each one possesses the power to calm the seas."

"Taken singly, they are only mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures; twelve together rival a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure; twenty-four together rival a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure; and when all thirty-six are gathered, they become an Innate Supreme Treasure." Xuanyuan nodded.

These Sea-Calming Pearls actually had some connection to the Chaos Pearl.

Because the Chaos Pearl could only be obtained by one whose fate was not of nothingness, none of All Beings of the Primordial World could claim it.

Thus, everyone assumed that the Chaos Pearl, like the Sky-Opening Axe, the Creation Green Lotus, and other supreme treasures, had shattered after Pangu Opens Heaven and transformed into other treasures.

If Xuanyuan had not obtained the intact Chaos Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Pearl...

He too would have thought that nearly seventy percent of the pearl-type Innate Spiritual Treasures in the Primordial World—such as the Four Symbols Pearl, Sun-Moon Pearl, Eye-Stabbing Pearl, Hunyuan Pearl, Earth-Splitting Pearl, and Sky-Opening Pearl—were fragments of the Chaos Pearl.

But now, that was clearly impossible.

If these treasures were fragments of the Chaos Pearl, then what explanation was there for the Chaos Pearl in his Nascent Soul?

Xuanyuan also had a bold guess in his heart: above Chaos lay Hongmeng, and the sole Hongmeng Pearl was said to have shattered along with Hongmeng itself...

Perhaps the Chaos Pearl and all other pearl-type treasures were fragments of that Hongmeng Pearl?

This was not impossible.

The Sea-Calming Pearls could emit five-colored light, dazzling an enemy's spiritual senses and five perceptions, with immense power capable of mobilizing the strength of the four seas;

Beyond that, they could evolve myriad worlds. When paired with the Universe Ruler, they could unleash even greater power.

The effect of evolving worlds, though a Lesser Witch compared to a Great Witch when set against the Chaos Pearl, was still cut from the same cloth.

That both originated from the same treasure was not entirely impossible.

"A full set comparable to an Innate Supreme Treasure? Indeed, that is a fine treasure. This treasure Is Destined To be fated with you, Fourth Brother. Put it away."

Hearing this, Tongtian nodded in agreement, his gaze falling on the twelve newly emerged pearls.

The Sea-Calming Pearls floated in midair, each one swirling with mysterious Five-Colored Divine Light. Ancient Dao patterns shimmered on the surface of the pearls, resonating from afar with the Chaos Pearl within Xuanyuan's Primordial Spirit, unleashing a terrifying pressure capable of tearing the void apart.

"Good."

Xuanyuan nodded, but in his heart, he was thinking that these Sea-Calming Pearls had some connection to his elder brother as well.

If nothing unexpected happened, the other twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls would fall into Zhao Gongming's hands.

Zhao Gongming was transformed from the First Gentle Breeze in Heaven and Earth, and had a master-disciple bond with Tongtian, becoming the outer sect's senior disciple of the Jie Sect.

However, he was later struck down by the Treasure-Dropping Coin and taken by Daoist Randeng.

Xuanyuan thought, this time, those twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls absolutely could not be allowed to fall into Daoist Randeng's hands cheaply.

"All the treasures on the two immortal islands have entered the hands of us two brothers. There is nothing else in the Return to Ruins. Fourth Brother, it is time for us to leave."

Seeing Xuanyuan put away the twelve Sea-Calming Pearls, Tongtian clapped his hands and smiled.

Though they had fallen into the Return to Ruins by accident, the outcome was ultimately good. Not only had he broken through his realm thanks to Heaven-Sent Merit, but he had also obtained three decent protective treasures. This trip had not been in vain.

"Leave? Indeed, it is time to leave."

"But before we leave, there is one more thing to do. Brother, step back for now and protect yourself. I intend to move these two islands away."

A sharp gleam flashed in Xuanyuan's eyes.

"What? Move two immortal islands?"

At these words, even Tongtian was stunned.

Though the immortal islands were not large, only tens of thousands of li in circumference, the pressure of the Five Elements Origin was so immense that even the Golden Ao had to take turns carrying them with three bodies!

These Golden Ao were no ordinary creatures. They were Innate Law Divine Beasts born at the Beginning of Heaven and Earth, counterparts to the ferocious beasts, with brute strength comparable to a Golden Immortal of the Origin.

If they hadn't encountered the Dragon-Kin Giant, whose physical strength was even greater, how could they have met Death and Dao Annihilation?

"Indeed. If Old Ancestor Five Elements could set up a scheme with this, why can't I?"

Xuanyuan saw it clearly.

Since they were already destined to be enemies, there was no need to hold back.

Either do nothing, or go all the way!

Old Ancestor Five Elements had used the Five Immortal Islands to substitute one thing for another, seeking to prove the Earth Path in an unorthodox way.

Xuanyuan could try this path as well!

He had already forged a good connection with Zhen Yuanzi. When the time was ripe, the two could join forces and establish the Earth Path. Then even the lofty Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao would no longer be a threat.

And with the characteristics of the Chaos Pearl and the Chaos World, even if he couldn't fully lift the immortal islands, as long as he could shake them even a little, he could take them away.

"Open!"

Xuanyuan roared to the heavens. Earthly Fiend Tainted Qi surged out from all over his body. His Ancestral Shaman True Form, 129,600 zhang tall, rose from the ground. Ancient runes flowed over his Divine Iron Immortal Gold-like skin, resembling the Great Dao Patterns from the Beginning of Heaven and Earth.

"Kacha!"

With a mighty swing of his hand, the Primordial Measure Heaven Ruler howled forth. Its brilliant light was like a reenactment of Pangu Opens Heaven. Wherever it passed, Chaos Residual Qi shattered inch by inch, and the space around the two immortal islands was sliced apart.
