Three Little Powerhouses Journey to the West Sea, Kunpeng Kills Red Cloud, Xuan Du Saves a Dragon, Celestial God as a Mount!
In recent years of travel, none of the three had neglected their cultivation.
With Lin Zhu's guidance along the way, Xuan Du and Guang Chengzi's cultivation had advanced rapidly.
Guang Chengzi had reached the Late Taiyi Realm, while Xuan Du had reached the Primordial Unity Peak and had even sensed the barrier to the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm.
Lin Zhu's own cultivation had also improved, reaching the Mid-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm.
The three had grown considerably stronger. Although the north was home to many great demons, they were confident in their ability to protect themselves.
When Lin Zhu suggested going to the West Sea, Xuan Du and Guang Chengzi immediately agreed.
Thus, the three set out together for the West Sea.
They were in no hurry, traveling and sightseeing as they went until they reached the West Sea.
The West Sea was far less magnificent than the East Sea, but it still offered beautiful scenery everywhere, along with several Immortal Islands.
As the three traveled through the West Sea, they did find several Immortal Islands.
However, powerful Great Powers had already visited all of those islands, and they found no treasures.
Even so, the three remained in high spirits.
One day, the three were moving slowly through the air.
Lin Zhu rode the Iron-Eating Beast, with Guang Chengzi and Xuan Du following behind him.
Seeing that Lin Zhu had a mount while they had to rely on magical power to travel, the two could not help lamenting the unfairness of it all.
Just then, an island appeared ahead, and shouts seemed to be coming from it.
"I wonder what is happening ahead?" Lin Zhu said calmly, not particularly concerned.
In the Primordial World, killing happened everywhere. Naturally, he could not concern himself with it all.
But when Xuan Du and Guang Chengzi saw there was some excitement to watch, they immediately flashed forward toward the Immortal Island.
Seeing this, Lin Zhu simply rode the Iron-Eating Beast to the skies above the island.
On the island stood towering ancient trees, with peaks rising everywhere.
Upon one of those mountain peaks stood a vicious beast.
The beast resembled an ox, yet it had two ox heads. Behind its bovine body trailed a horse's tail, and it looked powerful and ferocious.
Not far from the beast was a young dragon.
The young dragon opened and closed its mouth, speaking in a woman's voice. "This little girl merely passed through this place and came ashore to rest. Even if I disturbed you, Senior, I have already apologized. Why must you press me so relentlessly?"
The Fierce Beast said coldly, "Once you enter my Immortal Island, do you think leaving will be so easy? You must serve me on this island for ten thousand years before I allow you to leave."
The young dragon said, "This little girl still has matters to attend to. How can I remain on this island for long?"
"Hmph, hmph. Once you enter my island, whether you stay or leave is no longer up to you. I shall suppress you here and see what you can do about it!"
After saying that, the giant beast swayed and transformed into a burly man. Wielding a trident, magical power surging around him, he charged at the young dragon, intending to suppress her.
The young dragon immediately felt an overwhelming pressure, and her heart shook violently. She transformed into human form, revealing herself as a beautiful woman.
With a flick of her hand, the Dragon Girl summoned two Long Swords. She swung them and engaged the burly man in battle.
The gap between their cultivation was enormous. As soon as they clashed, the Dragon Girl fell into a disadvantage.
"Hmph, this beast is truly bullying others. I must intervene."
Xuan Du was seized by a Sudden Impulse. His blood surged as he let out a great shout, descending from the sky and charging toward the burly man.
When Guang Chengzi saw Xuan Du make his move, he was about to go help, but Lin Zhu stopped him.
"This is Xuan Du's opportunity. Do not interfere. This beast has only just entered the Taiyi Realm and is no match for Xuan Du."
Hearing this, Guang Chengzi had no choice but to stop. Still, he watched closely in secret, ready to lend aid the moment Xuan Du was defeated.
Seeing Xuan Du arrive, the burly man shouted, "Who are you? Why are you meddling in this?"
Xuan Du said, "You are bullying others here. I cannot stand it. If I wish to interfere, I will. What can you do about it?"
The burly man flew into a rage. He abandoned his fight with the Dragon Girl and turned to battle Xuan Du.
Xuan Du had already reached the Primordial Unity Peak. Naturally, his cultivation far surpassed that of the giant beast.
After only a short exchange, Xuan Du brought out the Taiji Diagram and swept it toward the burly man.
The burly man could not evade in time and was drawn into the Taiji Diagram.
After being pulled into the Taiji Diagram, the burly man used his Divine Powers in an attempt to escape. How could he possibly break free?
Xuan Du said, "Stop wasting your strength. This is the Primordial Treasure, the Taiji Diagram."
Upon hearing that the treasure imprisoning him was the Taiji Diagram, the burly man immediately lost heart. "Senior, spare my life."
Xuan Du said, "I know cultivation is not easy, so I will not kill you. Are you willing to serve as my mount? I am Taiqing's Personal Disciple. Serving as my mount would not disgrace you. What do you say?"
The burly man had already been taken into the Taiji Diagram. If Xuan Du wanted his life, it would take only a thought.
The burly man knew this as well. Upon hearing that Xuan Du was a Saint's disciple, he replied, "Fine. I am willing to follow you and serve as your mount."
Xuan Du was overjoyed and released the burly man from the Taiji Diagram.
The burly man's body trembled slightly before he returned to his original form.
Xuan Du took out a precious bracelet and placed it around the giant beast, unable to contain his delight.
Now, he also had a mount. He no longer needed to envy his senior brother's Iron-Eating Beast.
Seeing Xuan Du subdue the giant beast, Lin Zhu and Guang Chengzi also descended onto the island.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother, on acquiring a mount. This beast is also an unusual species of the Primordial Wilderness, called Celestial God. Its speed is exceptional, no worse than my Iron-Eating Beast."
Xuan Du was even more delighted. He looked at Guang Chengzi and said, "Junior Brother Guang Cheng, what do you think of my mount?"
Guang Chengzi's expression turned rather ugly.
He was showing off!
Unfortunately, he did not have a mount. Xuan Du had really gotten to show off this time.
Now both of his senior brothers had mounts, while he alone still had to run everywhere on foot. How infuriating.
Just as Guang Chengzi was about to speak, the Dragon Girl stepped forward and bowed to Lin Zhu. "Thank you, three benefactors, for saving me."
Lin Zhu waved a hand. "No need for such courtesy. Who are you, and why were you being bullied by that beast here?"
The Dragon Girl said, "This little girl is the daughter of the West Sea Dragon King. I was traveling abroad and passed by this island. Seeing that its spiritual energy was rich, I came ashore to take a look."
"Who would have thought there would be such a Fierce Beast on the island? Seeing that the island had an owner, I intended to apologize and leave. Yet this beast refused to let the matter go. Had the three of you not rescued me, this little girl would likely have been harmed by the beast."
Lin Zhu was not at all surprised to learn that the Dragon Girl was the Princess of West Sea Dragon King.
He possessed the Omniscience Divine Ability, so he had naturally recognized the Dragon Girl's origins at a glance.
"So that was it." Lin Zhu nodded. "We came to the West Sea to travel. Seeing the beast bully others, we intervened."
The Dragon Girl said, "Since the three benefactors have come to travel through the West Sea, why not visit my West Sea Dragon Palace for a few days? This little girl may then do her duty as host and repay you for saving me."
Lin Zhu considered it.
There was nothing else to do, and there was no harm in visiting the Dragon Palace, so he agreed.
Thus, they left the Immortal Island and headed toward the West Sea Dragon Palace.
The Dragon Girl moved close to Lin Zhu and spoke with him, while Lin Zhu responded to her one question after another.
Xuan Du and Guang Chengzi followed behind, watching as the Dragon Girl repeatedly called Lin Zhu her benefactor.
Xuan Du was rather puzzled. He had clearly been the one to save her, yet the Dragon Girl was thanking Lin Zhu instead.
He secretly sent Guang Chengzi a message. "Junior Brother Guang Cheng, why is this Dragon Girl so friendly toward Senior Brother, yet ignores me, the one who actually saved her?"
Guang Chengzi smiled. "Perhaps Senior Brother is exceptionally handsome, and his bearing makes the Dragon Girl favor him more."
Xuan Du rubbed his chin.
He was the first innate member of the Human Race, blessed with unparalleled talent.
Could he really be inferior to Lin Zhu?
