Following a wisp of aura, Ancestral Dragon sent Xie Fang's portrait into the minds of the Four Seas Water Tribes.
Once Ancestral Dragon had done this, every member of the Four Seas Water Tribes stared at the portrait in their minds, unable to believe their eyes!
"How could a creature dare to kill a member of the Dragon Clan in the East Sea?"
"And a Grand Unity Golden Immortal-level dragon, no less!"
"Who could be so bold? How dare they challenge the Dragon Clan like this?"
"Who cares who it is? Lord Ancestral Dragon has already made a portrait of the culprit. Find him and avenge our Dragon Clan!"
As soon as the news spread, the Four Seas Water Tribes were utterly shocked!
Someone had killed a Grand Unity Golden Immortal-level dragon... and done it in the East Sea, the Dragon Clan's own territory!
It was practically a direct challenge to the Dragon Clan!
Now that Ancestral Dragon had personally stepped in, the culprit would surely have nowhere to run!
After all, Lord Ancestral Dragon had already advanced to Quasi-Saint!
As the Four Seas Water Tribes began searching for information about Xie Fang, Ancestral Dragon issued another Imperial Decree!
"By my decree, any member of the Four Seas Water Tribes who kills this culprit will be rewarded with an Innate Spiritual Treasure! Anyone who finds his whereabouts will also receive an Innate Item!"
He had no choice but to increase the reward. He had deduced that the culprit was a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, but he couldn't determine where he was.
This meant the culprit must possess considerable divine abilities. Without raising the stakes, the Four Seas Water Tribes might not take the matter seriously.
Sure enough, when Ancestral Dragon's second Imperial Decree went out, the entire Four Seas erupted once more!
An Innate Spiritual Treasure!
At the very least, whoever found the culprit's whereabouts could obtain an Innate Item!
Who wouldn't be tempted?
Thus, countless powerful members of the Four Seas Water Tribes poured out in force, including no shortage of Grand Unity Golden Immortals!
Such a large-scale mobilization shocked the entire Primordial World!
While the Dragon Clan stirred up a storm, Xie Fang had already brought Mo Wu to the Three Immortal Islands.
Penglai, one of the Three Immortal Islands, was protected by the Ten Directions Sky Covering Great Array, making it impossible for ordinary people to find. When Xie Fang had first come from there, his cultivation had been too weak, and refining the Three Immortal Islands' Stone Stele would have taken far too long.
Now that he had returned, refining all of the Three Immortal Islands with his peak Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivation was no more difficult than lifting a finger!
"Hm? Who's there?"
Just as Xie Fang and Mo Wu stopped before the Three Immortal Islands' array, a shout suddenly rang out from beneath the sea. Then, a voice filled with delight followed as a Fish Spirit appeared. "So you're here! Hahahaha! Lord Ancestral Dragon's reward is mine—"
Xie Fang's brow furrowed slightly. Before the Fish Spirit could finish speaking, he flicked out a wisp of aura. The Fish Spirit's words were cut short as it burst apart and died!
After searching the Fish Spirit's soul, Xie Fang's lips curved into a smile. "Ancestral Dragon thinks an Innate Spiritual Treasure is enough to buy my life. He's underestimating me a little..."
"Master, Ancestral Dragon has put a bounty on you?"
Mo Wu hadn't even realized what had happened before the Fish Spirit died. Hearing Xie Fang's laugh, he asked nervously.
After all, the Four Seas Water Tribes were all under the Dragon Clan's Ancestral Dragon. Now that the Fish Spirit had mentioned Ancestral Dragon, Mo Wu had immediately understood.
"Pay no attention to them. They're all useless."
Xie Fang shook his head, then looked toward the Ten Directions Sky Covering Great Array.
A trace of killing intent appeared in his eyes!
Xie Fang wasn't the least bit afraid of Ancestral Dragon's bounty!
Unless Ancestral Dragon came in person, any of those Dragon Clan good-for-nothings who showed up would die. They'd just be handing him experience!
Besides, even if Ancestral Dragon came in person, Xie Fang could simply fight him. It was anyone's guess who would come out on top!
Xie Fang wasted no more time. He immediately used the Spatial Teleportation Technique, arriving inside Penglai Immortal Island beside the Stone Stele.
He had been away from the island for tens of thousands of years, and vines had grown all over the place in his absence.
As Xie Fang's magical power surged, a blast of force swept through and revealed the towering Stone Stele, engraved with profound runes and bearing an ancient, weighty air.
"Gasp... This immortal island?!"
Xie Fang's Spatial Teleportation Technique had suddenly brought Mo Wu onto the island, and he couldn't help drawing in a sharp breath.
When he saw the Stone Stele, his eyes widened in shock. "Master, when you said you were going to retrieve some old things that belonged to you, you didn't mean this immortal island, did you?"
"Of course not."
Xie Fang shook his head. Mo Wu had just breathed a sigh of relief when Xie Fang added, "There are three immortal islands like this."
"Gasp—"
Mo Wu could tell that the island was rich in Spiritual Qi and overflowing with rare treasures. This immortal island was actually something his master had owned in the past? And there were three of them?
"Wait, three immortal islands... Could this be the legendary immortal realm, the Three Immortal Islands?"
Mo Wu's eyes suddenly widened, his heart filled with disbelief!
Xie Fang merely smiled at his reaction. Then he stopped wasting time and began refining the Stone Stele.
This Stone Stele was where Penglai Immortal Island's Spiritual Vein lay. Refining it would let him control the entire island, as well as the Ten Directions Sky Covering Great Array.
One Forbidden Seal after another was refined by Xie Fang amid swirling Spiritual Qi.
Above Penglai Immortal Island, Immortal Mist rose and billowed.
Seeing that Xie Fang had begun refining the Stone Stele, Mo Wu marveled for a moment, then found a place rich in Spiritual Qi and began cultivating as well.
After all, following a powerful master who was always getting into trouble put him under a great deal of pressure.
If he didn't hurry up and cultivate, he feared he wouldn't even be worthy of following his master in the future.
Master and servant went about their business in an orderly fashion. In the blink of an eye, ten thousand years passed!
On this day, the Ten Directions Sky Covering Great Array enveloping the three immortal islands suddenly began to shake!
Rumble—
A deafening rumble followed, and Penglai Immortal Island, one of the three, began to rock violently.
The violent shaking immediately woke Mo Wu from his cultivation. "What's going on? What happened?"
His tiger eyes were filled with panic. "Is the island about to explode?"
Just then, a sharp shout rang out. "Be mine!"
Hearing the voice, Mo Wu immediately relaxed. He recognized it as Xie Fang's.
As Xie Fang's voice fell, the shining runes on Penglai Immortal Island's Stone Stele instantly dimmed, and the island's violent shaking abruptly stopped.
Then Xie Fang pointed a finger, and Penglai Immortal Island, now refined, was taken into the Primordial Chaos Space.
Splash—
As Penglai Immortal Island was put away, Mo Wu, completely unprepared, dropped straight into the sea with a thud.
"Cough, cough! Master, you could've given me a warning before putting it away..."
Caught off guard, Mo Wu had swallowed a mouthful of seawater. After coughing it up in a sorry state, he called out to Xie Fang.
