"What is this?"

East King Duke lightly flicked his jade sleeve, grasping the dim light in his hand.

Black and white intermingled, several divine patterns emerged, and the object in his hand, resembling a plate, seemed to constantly emit a faint aura of reincarnation.

Could it be related to the Reincarnation Law?

[Congratulations, host, for obtaining the supreme treasure Six Paths Reincarnation Disk (Incomplete). This spirit treasure is the lifebound artifact of the Reincarnation Demon God, containing the supreme will of reincarnation.]

[The Six Paths Reincarnation Disk in the host's hand is only half. If the other half can be gathered, the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk will become fully complete, reaching the level of a Top-grade Chaos Spirit Treasure.]

Just as East King Duke was puzzled, the system appeared in time.

The Six Paths Reincarnation Disk—he never expected it to be the Reincarnation Demon God's artifact. This filled East King Duke with immense joy.

The Reincarnation Law was one of the supreme laws, profound and wondrous beyond measure.

If East King Duke could master the Reincarnation Law, his combat power would leap to an entirely new level.

"System, can This Emperor comprehend the Reincarnation Law now?"

East King Duke frowned slightly.

It seemed the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk was sealed by some mysterious force. Fortunately, that was the case; otherwise, if the Soul Devouring Beast Emperor wielded the Reincarnation Law, he would be no match for it.

[Ding! Detected that the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk is incomplete. It has been restricted by the Reincarnation Demon God. Only by completing the spirit treasure can the Reincarnation Law be comprehended.]

Hearing this, East King Duke had no choice but to drop the matter.

If he possessed the cultivation of a Limitless Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin, he could break the restriction in an instant. But with his current strength, the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk was nothing more than a decoration.

"Dragon Son, wait while This Emperor imprints his Primordial Spirit Mark on the Tongtian Jianmu. Then we will head to the final island, Yingzhou!"

East King Duke could see that the Space Gate to Yingzhou Island lay within this Tongtian Jianmu.

It was a pity that this Chaos Spiritual Root-level Tongtian Jianmu had not yet developed intelligence; otherwise, its minimum potential would be that of a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin.

"I'll follow my husband!"

Yinglong agreed gladly. She had no interest in the Tongtian Jianmu.

Soon!

One after another, Primordial Spirit Marks were branded onto the Tongtian Jianmu by East King Duke, while the Immortal Dao Law, Yin-Yang Law, and Law of Strength carved countless divine patterns into it.

"Done!"

East King Duke said softly, then wrapped his arm around Yinglong and stepped into the Space Gate. The two trod upon the Chaos Qi Flow, descending toward Yingzhou Island.

Outside the Tongtian Jianmu.

Taiqing suddenly opened his eyes, his expression one of extreme shock.

"I never expected Fellow Daoist East King Duke to truly resolve the Soul Devouring Beast Emperor. The means I left within the Tongtian Jianmu have been erased!"

"Who says the Three Pure Ones have boundless destiny? Compared to East King Duke, we are mere ants!"

"Laozi has something to say, whether it's fitting or not: the Three Pure Ones are truly useless!"

Yingzhou Island.

No spirit beasts or spiritual plants, only rampaging chaotic spiritual energy.

Here, there was not a trace of life force. Endless gale winds and Space Turbulence churned, giving rise to Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water, a chaotic mix of energies.

The ground was covered entirely with chaotic adamantine stones.

Unless used for artifact refining, they were utterly useless.

Rumor had it that Haotian Boy and Yaochi Boy had their Background as chaotic adamantine stones, only able to take form after receiving the guidance of Dao Ancestor Hongjun and the protection of Heavenly Dao Destiny.

Their Background was not top-tier, but as disciples of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, their cultivation and foundation were naturally profound.

"Let us go to the very center of Yingzhou Island. There seems to be a faint golden light flickering—likely a supreme treasure, and it appears to be related to space!"

"I hope it can give This Emperor a surprise!"

East King Duke's gaze was sharp, piercing through the Void.

In the depths of the Space Turbulence, indistinctly, willow branches danced, and streaks of golden light shimmered.

Before long, the two arrived at the central area.

Before them stood a willow tree several Zhang tall, radiating boundless Space Law. However, only a few dozen willow branches swayed, and even the trunk was only half intact.

A faint golden light illuminated the surroundings.

"Husband, Space Law! This willow tree contains the essence of space. If you can refine it, you can achieve mastery of the Space Law and grasp space-based divine abilities!"

"Could this be the Space Willow Tree?"

As Yinglong spoke, her red lips gradually parted, as if they could hold an ice stick, her shocked expression no less intense than when she shared cultivation pleasures with East King Duke.

At the same time, a storm surged within East King Duke's heart.

The Space Willow Tree was the true body of Yangmei, the Space Demon God. During the World-Opening Tribulation, it had suffered a heavy blow from the Pangu Axe, splitting into two halves that fell into the Chaos Qi Flow.

Half of the Space Willow Trees, bearing the will of the Space Demon God, transformed into Old Ancestor Yangmei, wielding the Space Law, and fought alongside Dao Ancestor Hongjun against Demon Ancestor Luohu.

The other half, their whereabouts unknown, unexpectedly ended up within Yingzhou Island.

What a stroke of fortune!

"No matter what, this Space Willow Tree belongs to This Emperor now. After the third lecture at Purple Cloud Palace, I will go into seclusion to comprehend the Space Law and won't emerge until it's perfected!"

"Chaos Bead, collect!"

East King Duke once again offered up the Chaos Supreme Treasure. A vast and boundless Chaos Qi Flow swept out, gradually enveloping Yingzhou Island within it, and then it vanished from sight.

The Space Willow Tree—only placed inside the Chaos Bead would it be safe.

Then.

The two appeared above the East Sea, with surging waves beneath their feet.

"Why does This Emperor suddenly feel a sense of unease?"

East King Duke rubbed his head and spoke a thoughtless sentence.

He hadn't offended anyone lately!

Just as East King Duke was hesitating, an Auspicious Cloud emerged from the Void—it was actually Dao Ancestor Hongjun!

"Greetings, Dao Ancestor!"

In an instant, all living beings who sensed his presence appeared one after another. East King Duke also bowed slightly, but why did Dao Ancestor Hongjun's expression look so bad?

Could it be... he was spent?

"East King Duke, you have brought great calamity upon this poor Daoist!"

"You took the Space Willow Tree, and Old Ancestor Yangmei has already sensed it. He is now heading toward the Primordial World, striking at the World Barrier with Space Dao Principles!"

"If Old Ancestor Yangmei's cultivation were not one level below this poor Daoist's, he would have already entered the Primordial World and ground your bones to dust!"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun spoke slowly.

As Soon as These Words Were Spoken, the Three Pure Ones, Zhunti, Jieyin... and other great powers were left dumbfounded, their envious gazes utterly impossible to conceal.

Especially Dijiang—drool was practically streaming down his chin.

The Space Willow Tree—if he could obtain it, even attaining the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin would not be out of reach.

In an instant, East King Duke understood the source of his unease. It was that old trickster Old Ancestor Yangmei, who seemed intent on forcing Dao Ancestor Hongjun to submit and making him hand over the Space Willow Tree.

Thinking of this, he felt immense pressure.

This was, by far, the greatest crisis he had ever faced.

If Dao Ancestor Hongjun could not defeat Old Ancestor Yangmei, then it was all over. Although the Dao Ancestor's realm gave him the upper hand, Old Ancestor Yangmei had an endless array of tricks.

Time is supreme, Space is king!

Among the Three Thousand Laws, excluding the Law of Strength, the Space Law ranked second.

During the World-Opening Tribulation, Old Ancestor Yangmei was someone who could fight three hundred rounds with Great God Pangu—there was no denying his strength.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun, with his Background as the Primordial One Qi, didn't seem to be favored!

"Dao Ancestor, can you win?"

East King Duke pondered for a moment, then spoke to Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

His tone was a bit weak!

"Scram!"

"All of you, follow this poor Daoist to Outside the Chaos and personally witness my battle with Old Ancestor Yangmei. From it, comprehend the saintly power and thereby enhance your understanding of the Heavenly Dao!"

With a casual wave, Immortal Dao Law sent East King Duke flying, though it caused no harm.

It was more like Dao Ancestor Hongjun's helpless affection for him.

The dignified spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao, a Dao Ancestor with the strength to bind a chicken, yet forced to fight another old man—how embarrassing!

After all, Old Ancestor Yangmei was once his close friend and kin!

Suddenly!

Immortal Dao power surged, and the next moment, everyone appeared Outside the Chaos.

Within the vast Chaos Qi Flow, beyond the World Barrier of the Primordial World, a slightly aged figure struck at the barrier ahead, his supreme dharma power overturning the cosmos itself.

"Fellow Daoist Yangmei, you should stop now!"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun appeared before Old Ancestor Yangmei. Amid the raging Chaos Gale, neither of their figures showed the slightest disturbance.

Having reached such a level of cultivation, they were already beyond all tribulations, eternal and immortal.

"Since you have fled into the Chaos, why return to the Primordial World?"

"This poor Daoist knows you have come for the Space Willow Tree, but as the Dao Ancestor, I must naturally protect the beings of the Primordial World, especially promising juniors!"

"If you remain obstinate, I will not hesitate to strike you down without mercy!"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun had shed his usual benevolence, revealing instead an endless aura of slaughter.

The peak aura of a Heavenly Dao Saint swept across billions of miles of the Void.

So Terrifying!
