The Three Great Legacy Clans' Grudges

Beichen finished giving his instructions and, without looking back, vanished into the Three Immortal Islands, leaving his four disciples to watch from afar, respectfully bidding him farewell!

Upon entering the Three Immortal Islands, waves of incomparably dense primordial spiritual energy washed over him, nourishing Beichen's body.

Traces of primordial essence also seeped in, entering his body and subtly enhancing his cultivation.

On these Three Immortal Islands, countless primordial spirit beasts roamed and hid, while myriad intelligent spiritual beings moved back and forth, searching for heavenly treasures.

Within the islands, jade-like grasses and exquisite flowers bloomed in a riot of color, and vibrant spiritual plants shimmered with light. The spiritual energy was so potent that no blessed land or grotto-heaven in the primordial world could compare!

In the primordial world, the three great immortal islands of Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou were unparalleled blessed lands, brimming with immense fortune. They were nourished and protected by the Heaven and Earth Great Dao, serving as ideal places for cultivation and advancement!

Not long after entering this sacred ground, Beichen felt his cultivation speed increase several times over compared to when he was on the Sun Star.

While the Sun Star was a decent place for cultivation, it was far inferior to the Three Immortal Islands.

Over the nearly two thousand years spent on the Sun Star, Beichen had made considerable sacrifices. Had he remained on the islands, his cultivation would have been much stronger than it was now!

However, Beichen pondered carefully and felt the trip was worthwhile!

After all, he had taken Dijun, Taiyi, Xihe, and Changxi as his disciples, forging countless karmic connections, which could not be compared to mere cultivation!

Cultivation could be improved, but once an opportunity was missed, it would never come again!

"With the matter of my four disciples settled, the next step is to wait for my next opportunity within these Three Islands!"

Beichen fiddled with the Primordial Heaven-Measuring Ruler, gently tapping it against his own back, leisurely and at ease.

Within this sacred ground, he didn't need to deliberately absorb chaotic spiritual energy to cultivate; it happened naturally and at a decent pace, making the process feel effortless!

On the Sun Star, the four deities lingered for a long time, their eyes filled with emotion.

Dijun couldn't help but say, "Master's sacred ground is an excellent place for cultivation, yet he left it for two thousand years just to guide us in comprehending our innate magical treasures and to mediate our relationships. We must remember our Master's great kindness!"

"Indeed! Master's virtue is immense, dedicating himself to us to this extent without any complaint. Truly admirable," Taiyi said emotionally.

Xihe, not skilled with words, simply nodded.

The mischievous Changxi bit her lip and said, "Without Master, we probably wouldn't have ended up together! During the chaos of the Black Dragon, we might have all perished!"

"Haha, since we remember Master's great kindness, let us not disappoint him. We should cultivate diligently and show him our achievements!" Dijun encouraged. "Also, Xihe, Changxi, take good care of yourselves and give birth to your children smoothly. Then, you can properly call Master 'Grand-Master,' which would also be a way to repay him."

"Mm!" Xihe and Changxi replied with nods.

"Sister-in-law, Changxi, I'll go pick some spiritual fruits to nourish you. Wait here!" Without another word, Taiyi turned and disappeared into the depths of the Sun Star's great forest.

Xihe was filled with warmth, "This second brother Taiyi, usually so cold, is also a warm-hearted person!"

Dijun leaned closer to Xihe and smiled slightly, "Second brother is like that, cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He possesses great might, yet his heart is also ardent!"

"Big Brother, you flatter me too much, praising my Taiyi so highly!" Changxi felt delighted.

"What? Does Sister Changxi think Taiyi isn't good?" Dijun asked with a smile.

"He's good, this blockhead is quite good!"

After that, Taiyi spent his days picking spiritual fruits, choosing the finest produce on the Sun Star. Xihe and Changxi's pregnancies were numerous, consuming vast amounts of energy. Fortunately, Taiyi worked diligently, sustaining them with spiritual fruits and various heavenly treasures.

Furthermore, the four of them, paired up, followed Beichen's instructions and continued their cultivation of the Yin-Yang Dao.

First, their formations, the Sun Grand Formation and the Moon Star Grand Formation, merged, increasing their combat power tenfold.

Then, the Sun's Fire and the Taiyin's True Water fused. The water and fire mingled, evolved, and repelled each other, unleashing terrifying power.

In terms of weaponry, Taiyi's Eastern Emperor Sword and Changxi's Taiyin Sun Moon Divine Blade merged. When wielded together, they unleashed a torrent of blade and sword energy; the silver blade gleamed coldly, and the golden sword burned with fiery spirit, complementing each other. Their killing power increased by at least tenfold!

As for Dijun, he took out the Xuanyuan Sword and merged it with Changxi's Taiyin Soul-Destroying Fork. Among these two weapons, the Xuanyuan Sword was more powerful. During the fusion, it suddenly became unbalanced, expelling boundless wild energy that ravaged the Sun Star with sword qi, while the Soul-Destroying Fork's power was unable to contain the Xuanyuan sword qi!

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Xihe brought out the Taiyin Soul-Reaping Mask and forcibly melted it into the two treasures.

The Taiyin Soul-Reaping Mask unleashed a balancing and restraining Yin force, which finally stabilized the fusion.

When the Xuanyuan Sword was unleashed, it was accompanied by a silver divine fork and an ancient silver mask. As it struck, it absorbed souls, nourishing the sword body and, in the process, elevating its spiritual treasure level.

"Phew! Thankfully, that was truly perilous!"

Xihe gently touched her belly, her face filled with tender affection. "No wonder Master once warned us not to fuse our innate magical treasures. If they become unbalanced, the consequences would be terrifying!"

Dijun was also filled with trepidation.

It had been truly dangerous just now; he had almost stepped forward himself to block it, to stand in front of Xihe and bear the scorching flames of the unbalanced magical treasure fusion.

If Xihe hadn't come up with a solution in time, he would have been severely injured!

"Xihe, we can rest for a while! We've basically tried all the pointers Master gave us. We just need to find some time to ponder what Master meant by 'spiritual root transplantation'!" Dijun sighed in relief.

Within the Three Immortal Islands, Beichen lived a life of leisure, feeling incredibly content.

Besides comprehending the profound mysteries of the Dao he had attained daily, he slept. Even in his sleep, his body was enveloped in spiritual energy, and his strength continuously grew.

However, after reaching the mid-stage of Grand Unity Golden Immortal, nearly a thousand years passed, and his cultivation seemed to have barely increased.

Upon entering the Grand Unity, one transcends the river of time and bids a complete farewell to one's past self. No great power can deduce their past. However, this also meant that the speed of cultivation became extremely slow.

The period from the mid-Grand Unity stage to the late-Grand Unity stage, and even the peak, would be an extremely long one.

Beichen knew that he couldn't rush anything. If he wanted to become a Saint, he had to build a solid foundation, so he took it all in stride.

Five hundred years passed in the blink of an eye. Recently, Beichen had been calculating every day whether Xihe and Changxi were about to give birth, but there were no signs.

Today's calculation yielded no results, but it did lead him to discover something else.

Beichen slowly stood up and looked out through Three Immortal Islands, only to see an extremely familiar black energy surging and flickering amidst the sea of clouds.

Looking around, he realized he was in an extremely deep area of the East Sea. The black dragon Mo Yuan had recovered his cultivation and was chasing a five-colored divine bird, roaring ferociously as they fought.

Amidst their battle, a green Qilin beast was also spewing flames, launching fierce attacks at the five-colored divine bird.

"Rare indeed! Truly rare!" Beichen gazed into the distance. "The black dragon Mo Yuan, in league with this Fire Qilin, attacking the Fire Phoenix! This is a grievance between the three races!"

"Ding, System detected: The Fire Phoenix Ling Cair is severely injured. Does the host wish to rescue her?"

"Option 1: Rescue Ling Cair and strike at the black dragon and Qilin. Reward: A glimpse of destiny!"

"Option 2: Turn a blind eye and let Ling Cair perish. Reward: A top-grade Innate Spirit Treasure, the twelve-petal World-Destroying Black Lotus!"
