The Dragon Clan's Dragon Emperor, Ying Long!

The mighty figures present looked toward Ying Long and Dong Wanggong, each wondering what the others were thinking.

Ever since the Dragon-Han Initial Tribulation had ended, the Dragon Clan had been bound by the Heavenly Dao Shackles. Even Ying Long's cultivation had fallen from Late Quasi-Saint to Peak Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal.

For countless years, the Dragon Clan had suppressed the East Sea Spring Eye.

Ying Long had washed away her karmic burdens with Heavenly Dao Merit, and only then had her cultivation recovered to the Early-stage Quasi-Saint realm.

Aside from her, the Dragon Clan had no other Quasi-Saint experts.

"Immortal Emperor, Ying Long's origins are exceptionally profound. Her body contains an immeasurable amount of Dragon Essence. If I fought her, I'd have only a thirty percent chance of winning!"

Qiongqi sent a voice transmission to Dong Wanggong.

Though he had used the Dragon Transformation Pool to fashion a dragon body and refined the Ancestor Dragon Pearl, Ying Long still made him feel immense pressure. It was as if the woman before him could control the source of his bloodline.

What Qiongqi didn't know was that Ying Long was Ancestor Dragon's younger sister and one of the purest members of the Dragon Clan. She was also a rare variant among the dragons, wielding supreme divine abilities.

Although her cultivation had declined, the power contained in her body had not disappeared.

After hundreds of millions of years of accumulation, along with what Ancestor Dragon and Candle Dragon had left behind, her foundation was in no way weaker than that of the Innate Deities present.

"I don't need you to tell me. I can sense the aura of the Time Law on Ying Long myself. She must have inherited Candle Dragon's legacy. Her true combat strength far exceeds that of an Early-stage Quasi-Saint!"

Dong Wanggong spoke slowly.

Candle Dragon's eyes opened to make day and closed to make night. During the Dragon-Han Initial Tribulation, he had cultivated the Time Law to perfection and reached Quasi-Saint Peak.

Then, treading on an Auspicious Cloud, Dong Wanggong strode toward Ying Long.

His figure was tall and straight, his chest broad. A scorching aura swept outward. As Ying Long sensed the Dao Resonance around him, even her breathing stopped for a moment, and her heart stirred.

"Greetings, Dragon Emperor. However, Qiongqi is a postnatal Divine Dragon. I used the Dragon Transformation Pool to forcibly fashion his dragon body, and he is not bound by the Heavenly Dao Shackles. So he can hardly be considered a member of the Dragon Clan!

"If I don't take Qiongqi as my mount, should I ride you instead, fellow Daoist?"

Dong Wanggong and Ying Long stood face-to-face, their faces nearly touching.

Her phoenix-shaped, peach-blossom eyes were paired with slender, upturned brows.

She was breathtakingly beautiful, with a flawless figure.

Her aura of supreme authority stirred a desire to conquer in Dong Wanggong. He wanted nothing more than to become a dragon rider and enjoy the pleasures of the flesh with Ying Long.

"Would you dare?"

Dragon Emperor Ying Long raised a delicate hand and stroked Dong Wanggong's chest.

Ying Long—please delete if this infringes copyright

Through his Daoist robe, he felt the coolness of her fingertips.

Dragon Emperor Ying Long was no simple woman!

"If the opportunity arose, I would certainly like to discuss the Dao with you, Dragon Emperor. I can also purify the Heavenly Dao Shackles on you with the Myriad Heavens Celebration Cloud and Heavenly Dao Merit. But what happens next depends on what you want."

"This is the Dragon Clan's Dragon Transformation Pool. Consider it my gift to you."

Dong Wanggong stirred his magic power and sent the Dragon Transformation Pool into the East Sea. The Dragon Clan members immediately surrounded it, eyeing their surroundings warily, afraid this supreme treasure might vanish.

Qiongqi had already absorbed the Dragon Essence within the pool, so the Dragon Clan's Supreme Treasure was of little use to Dong Wanggong. Ying Long, on the other hand, had piqued his intense interest.

In the traditional myths, Ying Long was Eastern Emperor Taiyi's Dao Companion. But now, there was a good chance Dong Wanggong had stolen her away from him.

"If you truly have a way, then I'd have no way to repay you. It seems I could only give myself to you!"

"Immortal Emperor, you're quite impressive. I like you very much."

Ying Long spoke softly, her bewitching voice full of allure.

Unfortunately, Dong Wanggong was the only one who could enjoy this seduction.

She withdrew her delicate hand and went to the Dragon Transformation Pool, taking it into her primordial spirit.

Every movement revealed the Dragon Emperor's authority.

She was even a little haughty!

In the blink of an eye, a hundred years passed.

Countless strange phenomena appeared across the East Sea. Chaotic spiritual energy surged forth, and Penglai Immortal Island resonated with Yingzhou Island and Fangzhang Island, both shrouded in that chaotic energy.

Brilliant light filled the sky, and purple qi surged.

Amid the clouds of spiritual energy, Yingzhou Island and Fangzhang Island fully revealed themselves. Countless spirit beasts roamed their lands, while exotic flowers and immortal herbs shimmered with faint golden light. They were top-tier Immortal's Blessed Lands.

"These two immortal islands are no less extraordinary than Penglai Immortal Island. If our Demon Clan can claim them, the Heavenly Emperor will gain even more Heavenly Dao Destiny!"

"Why don't we summon the Demon Clan's armies and seize these two sacred lands?"

Demon Saint Ji Meng said to Dijun, his face showing boundless greed.

He had a human body and a dragon's head, and looked imposing. In his hand was a three-pronged sea-quelling steel fork, while the dragon-scale armor on his body gleamed coldly. His aura was extremely violent.

Among the Ten Great Demon Clans, his standing was second only to Bai Ze.

At Ji Meng's words, Dijun's expression shifted slightly. But after glancing at the Three Pure Ones from Kunlun Mountain, Zhen Yuanzi, and the other Quasi-Saint experts around them, he abandoned the idea.

The Demon Clan wasn't strong enough yet, and its armies were within the Thirty-three Heavens. Now that Yingzhou Island and Penglai Island had appeared, there wasn't enough time.

"Why do I feel a faint unease? It's as if some mysterious presence dwells on those immortal islands, and its aura seems loathed by the Heavenly Dao—utterly evil?"

Dong Wanggong furrowed his brows. This was the first time he had ever sensed such an omen.

Seeing this, he didn't move first. Instead, he waited for the Innate Deities around him to act. If the immortal islands were protected by some strange restriction, he could respond in advance.

Penglai Immortal Island, Yingzhou Island, and Fangzhang Island together formed a top-tier Immortal's Blessed Land.

The mighty figures present could explore and search for treasures, but occupying the remaining two islands would depend on whether Dong Wanggong agreed.

While Dong Wanggong watched, some of the Innate Deities lost patience and charged straight toward Yingzhou Island and Fangzhang Island, as if they could obtain supreme opportunities at any moment.

But in an instant, chaotic Gale Wind rampaged, and its violent force annihilated them.

A few with deep destiny managed to enter the smaller Fangzhang Island. Seeing this, the others followed one after another, boarding the immortal island to search for treasure.

"Have you figured out what's going on, Immortal Emperor?"

"Why don't you come with me? That way, we can watch each other's backs!"

Ying Long came to Dong Wanggong's side. The Dragon Clan members behind her had already withdrawn. After obtaining the Dragon Transformation Pool, they were satisfied with their gains from this trip.

Although the Dragon Clan wanted to claim Yingzhou Island and Fangzhang Island, they lacked the strength to do so.

As Ying Long looked at Dong Wanggong, she radiated every sort of charm. Her restless little hand began sliding over his chest and neck without waiting for his consent, teasing him.

"My Dojo is Penglai Immortal Island, one of the Three Immortal Islands. The three islands connect to the chaotic space, forming a Three Talents configuration in the unseen world.

"Heaven, Earth, and Man—this is the Chaotic Three Talents Formation. For some reason, the connection between Fangzhang Island and the chaotic space has been severed, allowing the Innate Deities to board it.

"Deep within Fangzhang Island is the formation's core. As long as you pass through the Space Gate, you can enter Yingzhou Island. As for Penglai Immortal Island, it is my Dojo. No one can enter it!"

A divine light flashed in Dong Wanggong's eyes.

Penglai Immortal Island held the Top-grade Innate Spiritual Root Yellow Middle Plum, while the chaotic spiritual energy on Fangzhang Island and Yingzhou Island was even denser. There must be supreme treasures born within them.

Penglai Immortal Island corresponded to Heaven, Yingzhou Island to Earth, and Fangzhang Island to Man.

The three were linked in an interlocking formation, impossible to break through from the outside.

"Let's go!"

Ying Long circulated her magic power, and she and Dong Wanggong headed toward Fangzhang Island.

A flash of mystic light later, the two appeared on Fangzhang Island.

As for his mount, Qiongqi had hit it off with Qiangliang of the Twelve Ancestral Witches. Dong Wanggong had sent him off to discuss the Thunder Law with Qiangliang.

"The Twelve-Petal Pure World White Lotus!"

"This supreme treasure is destined for our Demon Clan. Fellow Daoists, please leave!"

Following the voice, Dong Wanggong and Ying Long descended among the crowd.

Dijun and the others were facing off against the Three Pure Ones, and the immense auras of both factions surged around them.

In a pool about the size of Fangzhang Island, a white lotus radiated endless mystic light. Boundless purifying power spilled from it, drawing everyone's attention.

The spiritual energy in the pool was exceptionally dense.

Looking closely, it was actually Three Lights Divine Water.

Sunlight Divine Water dissolved flesh, blood, and bone; Moonlight Divine Water corroded the primordial spirit and soul; Starlight Divine Water consumed the True Spirit and consciousness.

But when the three waters were combined, they became a sacred medicine for healing, capable of bringing the dead back to life and restoring flesh to bare bones.

At a critical moment, even if a Saint were injured, the unending power of creation in the Three Lights Divine Water could heal those wounds. It was an astonishingly miraculous spirit water.

"The Twelve-Petal Pure World White Lotus is destined for me. Fellow Daoist Dijun, you should withdraw. Otherwise, I'll have to suppress your Demon Clan with this Heaven and Earth Mysterious Exquisite Pagoda!"

"Yuanshi, go take the treasure!"

Old Master Taiqing directly produced the Postnatal Merit Supreme Treasure. His Mid-stage Quasi-Saint magic power was terrifying as it swept toward Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

A great battle was on the verge of breaking out!
