At that moment, Ye Lin recalled a rumor: Penglai Immortal Island was said to be a part of the Immortal World.
In the primordial era, the Immortal World had been no different from the mortal realm. Yet for some unknown reason, an independent Heavenly Dao was born within the Immortal World. In the end, it broke away from the mortal realm, and before its departure, it established an immortal gate.
It was called the Gate of Ascension.
The Immortal World's standing was far higher than that of the mortal realm. Even the air flowing through it was Immortal Qi. Immortal Qi was vastly more powerful than spiritual qi—more than ten thousand times stronger.
Penglai Immortal Island, meanwhile, was a portion that had broken away when the Immortal World separated from the mortal realm, due to the upheaval and the workings of the laws.
From then on, the Immortal World completely departed from the mortal realm and vanished without a trace. Penglai Immortal Island fell into the mortal realm, yet did not merge with it, instead mysteriously disappearing.
Not even the Heavenly Dao could find where Penglai Immortal Island had gone. It only appeared once at certain times.
Still, it was merely a rumor. No one knew whether it was true or false.
Yet Ye Lin was now seventy to eighty percent convinced, because this Pre-Heaven Spiritual Qi was far stronger than the Pre-Heaven Spiritual Qi he had once absorbed.
Though it could not compare to the legendary Immortal Qi, it still utterly crushed ordinary Pre-Heaven Spiritual Qi.
All around him was incomparably dense spiritual qi and lush, flourishing forest. From time to time, terrifying Demon Beasts flew across the sky, and any one of them was at the Spirit Transformation realm or the Dao Integration stage.
It was simply outrageous.
