On Yingzhou Island, a colossal palace complex tens of thousands of feet high stood, crystal clear as if forged from molten crystal.
This palace complex covered an area of ten thousand square miles, occupying a corner of Yingzhou Island.
Inside were pavilions and towers, immortal ponds and residences, palaces and alchemy rooms, spirit pagodas and grand courtyards, numbering in the hundreds of millions.
At a glance, they were arranged in neat rows, like uneven mountain peaks standing tall, or like an endless expanse of stars.
The powerful aura emanating from within made one feel boundless and profound, a majestic sight that shook heaven and earth!
At the forefront of this grand spectacle stood a colossal pillar, ten thousand feet high, reaching the heavens. The pillar was crafted from Chaos Essence Gold, and three sacred, extraordinary characters were carved upon it: Immortal Island Palace.
"Fellow Daoist Mystic Turtle, where is that? Why has it suddenly burst forth with such boundless splendor?"
Kunpeng's divine eyes pierced through hundreds of millions of miles, staring at the palace complex in that region with disbelief.
"Oh, it's my Immortal Island Palace!"
"Two hundred years ago, Fellow Daoist Six-Eared and I discussed establishing the Immortal Island Palace to widely recruit talented individuals and gather immortal cultivators, hoping to make our Endless Three Islands a bit more lively. Unknowingly, two hundred years have passed, and this Immortal Island Palace has been completed!"
"Widely recruit talented individuals, gather immortal cultivators, to make it livelier?"
Kunpeng observed this grand scene and was somewhat unconvinced by Beichen's words: "Fellow Daoist Mystic Turtle, you... you have grand ambitions?"
"What grand ambitions? It's just a small undertaking, trying to get by in the Primordial World!"
"Since we're living in this world, we can't just do nothing, right?"
Kunpeng heard the hidden meaning in Beichen's words, his eyes rolled, and he seemed to probe: "Fellow Daoist Mystic Turtle, your Immortal Island Palace has a more powerful aura than Dao Ancestor Hongjun's Purple Heaven Palace!"
"Although this palace has just been built and its foundation may be insufficient compared to the Purple Heaven Palace, in reality, if we talk about the Dao principles intertwined within, it's no less than the Purple Heaven Palace!"
"If one cultivates within this palace, it wouldn't be any worse than the Purple Firmament Palace!"
Beichen secretly glanced at Kunpeng, inwardly exclaiming that Kunpeng truly lived up to his reputation as a person of profound schemes, having already seen through his intentions.
But Beichen didn't say much, merely smiling faintly: "Fellow Daoist Kunpeng, if you don't mind, please come closer and take a look!"
With that, Beichen used a divine ability of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao, "Shrinking the Ground to Ten Thousand Miles." In an instant, he traveled hundreds of millions of miles, his figure appearing before the Immortal Island Palace.
Kunpeng, on the other hand, spread his wings, like clouds descending from the sky, soaring high. He traveled three million miles per breath, and after a quarter of an hour, he finally arrived before the Immortal Island Palace.
"Fellow Daoist Mystic Turtle has the Mystic Turtle physique, not known for speed. I wonder when he will arrive here?" Kunpeng pondered, looking down. "These Three Immortal Islands are boundless and vast, an incredibly immense world. If he were the master of this world, it might take tens of thousands of years to traverse it."
"Strange, why didn't I see any sign of Fellow Daoist Mystic Turtle on the way here? He should have passed me and I should have encountered him along the way!"
Muttering, Kunpeng looked up, his eyes involuntarily filled with astonishment.
He saw that Beichen seemed to have already arrived. He was holding an ancient map, huddled with the Six-Eared Macaque, discussing something unknown.
"Hmm? Already here? How is that possible?"
Seeing this, Kunpeng's heart trembled violently.
Kunpeng strode closer and heard the Six-Eared Macaque pointing at the map: "Fellow Daoist Mystic Turtle, this map was painstakingly drawn by Six-Eared, Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin. From the moment the palace began construction, we meticulously depicted it, without the slightest deviation."
"Furthermore, as this map was being drawn, fragments of the Great Dao from Yingzhou Island fell, condensing our origins and destiny within it. It has thus become a Houtian magical treasure. We shall tentatively call it the Immortal Island Palace Divine Map."
Saying this, the Six-Eared Macaque flicked the ancient map in his hand and tossed it out.
The map expanded wildly, and a three-dimensional depiction of the Immortal Island Palace appeared above the map, as if floating on the sea.
Beichen's divine eyes flickered, and he walked in without hesitation.
The moment he stepped inside, he saw the Dao principles churning within. Between the countless palaces and houses, fragments of the Great Dao flashed wildly, transforming into endless immortal blades.
These immortal blades possessed terrifying Dao power. Even Beichen instantly sensed a killing intent.
Bang!
He quickly summoned the Universe Great Dao Mystic Turtle Shell, repelling the immortal blade Dao principles. His body flickered, and he appeared outside.
After escaping the map, his eyes couldn't help but narrow: "This has become a killing map! A Grand Unity Golden Immortal would be instantly reduced to fragments upon entering. Even a Quasi-Saint would not be able to withstand it for long. If trapped inside, death is certain."
Beichen waved his hand casually, and streams of restrictive Dao principles permeated the map, only to be instantly absorbed by it.
Beichen's gaze flickered with astonishment: "My innate restrictive Dao power can be easily integrated into it. With this, the Immortal Island Palace Divine Map becomes a prison for beheading. If someone enters, and I don't intervene to save them, their very being will perish!"
Behind him, Kunpeng watched this scene, feeling a thrill of fear and a sense of apprehension rising within him: "Why is this happening?"
The Six-Eared Macaque also felt extremely puzzled, as this was beyond his scope of perception: "Fellow Daoist Mystic Turtle, although this map was drawn by the four of us, it is a magical treasure refined by the laws of Yingzhou Island. You are the master of these Three Islands, therefore, you can control this map at will and easily add new techniques within it. Six-Eared offers this map to you!"
If the Universe Great Dao Mystic Turtle Shell was Beichen's accompanying magical treasure, then the Immortal Island Palace Divine Map was more like his Houtian refined innate magical treasure. Beichen did not stand on ceremony and reached out to take it.
When the system first bestowed the Three Immortal Islands upon Beichen, it also incorporated his destiny into these islands. Therefore, the magical treasures formed by these islands would have a profound connection with him.
The Three Immortal Islands were a world dominated by Beichen, and in essence, they could be considered a part of his body.
"Fellow Daoist Kunpeng, why are you only arriving now? Your speed is a bit too slow!"
Beichen knew Kunpeng had arrived, turned around, and smiled faintly.
Kunpeng's face was filled with embarrassment: "Fellow Daoist Mystic Turtle, your Dao techniques are profound and unparalleled!"
In terms of speed, Kunpeng was definitely among the top in the Primordial World, perhaps even the fastest below a Saint. Yet, to be so openly outdone by Beichen left him speechless.
However, Beichen smiled again: "Fellow Daoist Kunpeng also possesses vast divine abilities, unmatched by any!"
Kunpeng: "..."
The Six-Eared Macaque pondered to himself. Suddenly, as if seeing through something, he quickly interrupted Beichen and the Kunpeng's conversation, saying, "Fellow Daoist Mystic Turtle is establishing a palace, and it should have a lineage. I, the Six-Eared Macaque, am willing to be an elder under your command. I wonder if you find me unworthy, fellow Daoist?"
"Not at all!" Beichen was overjoyed to see the Six-Eared Macaque submit so readily. "Fellow Daoist Six-Eared Macaque, you were the one who started building the Immortal Island Palace. From now on, you shall be the guardian of my Immortal Palace. What do you say?"
"Excellent, I accept your command!" The Six-Eared Macaque looked at Beichen again. "Fellow Daoist on high, you should bestow a title upon yourself to honor the name of this palace's master!"
Beichen thought for a moment, then said somewhat shamelessly, "Fellow Daoist Six-Eared Macaque, what do you think of the title 'Beichen Dao Ancestor'?"
"Beichen Dao Ancestor!" The Six-Eared Macaque's eyes lit up.
Behind them, the Kunpeng's expression also changed drastically. He couldn't help but think, This Mystic Turtle has great ambition!
