A Hundred-Year Search Across the East Sea, Pure World White Lotus Appears on Yingzhou Immortal Island

The vast East Sea stretched boundlessly as far as the eye could see.

The emerald waves churned without end, towering billows rising and falling as they carried an incomparably dense Water Law that filled heaven and earth.

The East Sea of the newly born Primordial World was far broader and more desolate than it would be in later ages. The spiritual qi of the Four Seas converged here, while countless layers of void lay hidden beneath the deep waters. Innate secret realms and ancient treasures coexisted with dangers and opportunities.

Li Changsheng transformed into a cyan streak of light and crossed the East Sea through the air. Creation divine light steadily circled his body, shielding him from the endless sea winds and surging waters.

The lotus-platform prison suppressing Taotie had been properly stored within his origin dantian, where it lay dormant and required no attention.

At that moment, the only obsession in his heart was to find the Pure World White Lotus.

As long as he obtained this innate lotus platform and mastered the ultimate Great Dao of purification, he could perfectly counter the fiendish aura left by the opening of heaven. Not only would he be able to completely dissolve the vicious fiendish aura within Taotie, but he could also safely investigate the corpse of the Creation Demon God and resolve the core problem of the Monstrous Beast Calamity in one stroke.

"Origins of the same source are bound to sense one another."

Li Changsheng calmed his mind and stopped flying recklessly.

He halted in midair, hovering ten thousand meters above the sea. His eyes half-closed as his consciousness completely sank into his own origin.

In the next instant, the vast and majestic origin of the Creation Green Lotus slowly spread out from his body.

Threads of pale cyan origin divine light diffused outward, piercing through layer after layer of cloud seas and crossing thousands of miles of ocean like invisible ripples that quietly echoed throughout the entire East Sea.

The five lotuses shared the same origin. Creation, Pure World, World-Destroying, Karmic Fire, and Good and Evil—the five lotus platforms had all been formed from the origin of the Primordial Chaos Lotus. Their origin roots were connected, and an invisible pull naturally existed between them.

Compared to the chaotic spiritual qi and laws scattered throughout heaven and earth, this resonance from their shared origin was the most precise and unique guide.

Yet the East Sea was simply too vast and boundless.

Furthermore, the Pure World White Lotus was naturally adept at purification and concealment. It possessed an innate concealed secret realm that blocked most heavenly perceptions. Precisely locating it was no task that could be accomplished overnight.

Time passed quietly.

Several hundred years flashed by in the blink of an eye.

During those centuries, Li Changsheng remained above the East Sea, continuously spreading his Creation origin to sense his surroundings. He searched the sea inch by inch and repeatedly sought resonance with heaven and earth.

Hard work did not betray the determined.

Finally, on this day, the countless strands of Creation origin he had spread out received a faint yet incomparably clear resonance from a desolate stretch of sea in the far eastern East Sea!

This trace of resonance was pure and flawless, carrying not the slightest bit of vicious or fiendish aura. It was filled only with the ultimate vitality of purification. It was precisely the origin aura of the Pure World White Lotus!

"Found it!"

Li Changsheng abruptly opened his eyes. A brilliant gleam flashed through them, and overwhelming joy surged in his heart.

He could be completely certain that the Pure World White Lotus was hidden deep within the void of this sea region!

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Changsheng no longer held back any of his strength.

Boom!

A vast amount of divine sense poured forth like a tide, sweeping in all directions and covering hundreds of thousands of miles of sea.

His extremely condensed divine sense carried the Dao rhythm of Creation. As it swept through the void, even the surrounding space rippled with delicate cyan waves, while the spiritual qi of heaven and earth violently stirred.

This was the most thorough carpet search possible.

He left no fraction unchecked and no inch unsearched, examining every part of the void, seabed, and layered secret realms throughout the locked sea region.

A moment later, Li Changsheng's divine sense finally caught an abnormality!

The void in this sea region appeared utterly ordinary, no different from its surroundings. Yet deep within it stood an invisible spatial barrier that cut off all divine-sense probes and the flow of spiritual qi.

The aura within the barrier was stagnant, completely concealing it from heaven and earth. It was perfectly hidden within the East Sea's void. Even an ordinary Da Luo Golden Immortal could spend an entire lifetime searching and still never find the slightest flaw.

"As expected, it's hidden within a void layer, with an array concealing it as well."

A knowing smile appeared on Li Changsheng's lips.

The Pure World White Lotus was a top-grade innate spiritual root that bore the Great Dao of purification. It possessed an innate secret realm for protection and was further concealed by an innate hiding formation. Its concealment ability was unmatched throughout the Primordial World, which was only natural.

Since he had found the flaw, he only needed to break it!

With a thought, the Chaos Thunder Seed that had long lain dormant within his sea of consciousness trembled slightly.

A strand of pure, tyrannical Chaos lightning burst from his fingertips.

Crackle!

The dark, profound lightning had condensed to the extreme. It carried no earth-shaking might, yet it contained the power to break through realms and split heaven and earth.

With a sharp whistle, the lightning tore through the air and precisely struck a hidden node of the void barrier!

Crack!

A faint sound of space shattering rang out.

The supposedly indestructible concealed void was instantly pierced through by the Chaos lightning. A long, narrow spatial fissure slowly appeared before him.

Behind the fissure, an enormous formation covered in profound and intricate innate Dao patterns was completely revealed!

Layer upon layer of formation patterns intertwined and encircled one another, forming a world of their own. They tightly sealed the entire secret realm, cutting it off from all outside observation and intrusion.

"An innate island-protecting grand formation!"

Li Changsheng's gaze sharpened, then he smiled calmly.

An ordinary innate great expert would be utterly helpless before such a top-tier innate formation born in the early Primordial World. Even after spending endless years on it, they might not comprehend the slightest part of it.

But he was different.

He possessed Pangu's complete inheritance of opening heaven. He was proficient in formations, restrictions, and Great Dao deduction alike. Though this formation appeared complex and obscure, in his eyes it was riddled with flaws, its Dao-pattern trajectories clearly visible.

Breaking the formation was merely a matter of time.

Li Changsheng immediately sat cross-legged before the spatial fissure, his fingertips continuously tapping the void.

With every flick of his finger, a strand of Creation Dao rhythm merged into the formation, quietly shifting the paths along which its formation patterns operated.

He was neither hurried nor impatient. Bit by bit, he deduced the formation's core, corrected the flaws in its formation eyes, and dismantled the foundation of its operation.

Another hundred years passed in silence.

Bolstered by Pangu's supreme mastery of formations, the operation of this innate formation that had guarded the place for endless ages gradually slowed and stagnated.

The formation patterns that had once endlessly cycled and renewed themselves dimmed and shattered one after another.

In the end, as Li Changsheng placed down his final finger!

Hum!

The entire innate formation came to a complete halt. Countless Dao patterns transformed into specks of flowing light and scattered into the void, shattering completely like bubbles!

The instant the formation was broken, an incomparably rich, ancient, desolate aura rushed toward him.

Strands of Chaos spiritual qi surged from the secret realm and spread throughout the void.

Chaos spiritual qi was the origin aura from before the opening of heaven. Violent and impure, it possessed immense destructive power. If an ordinary Primordial World creature touched even a trace of it, their Dao foundation would be damaged and their divine soul injured. All avoided it as though it were poison.

Yet when it fell upon Li Changsheng, it made his entire body feel incomparably refreshed and clear.

His true body had been formed from the Creation Green Lotus, and his origin came from Chaos. He was naturally compatible with Chaos aura.

This pure Chaos spiritual qi rushed wildly into his body through the pores across his body and through his meridian origins, nourishing his flesh, tempering his divine soul, and replenishing his Dao foundation.

His previously stable cultivation realm quietly became even more solid and profound beneath the nourishment of Chaos spiritual qi.

As Li Changsheng absorbed and refined the Chaos spiritual qi, he raised his eyes toward the depths of the secret realm, already knowing this place's origins.

Yingzhou Island, one of the Three Immortal Islands!

When the Primordial World had first opened and heaven and earth were still unstable, countless Chaos fragments had scattered across the Four Seas and evolved into three supreme immortal islands: Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou.

The current Yingzhou Island had yet to undergo the transformation of endless ages. The island's spiritual qi had not completely converted into innate spiritual qi, and the laws of heaven and earth remained ancient and primitive.

Although the island held few living creatures and spiritual objects, every plant and every item was a remnant of Chaos, wondrous beyond compare and far surpassing the spiritual roots of the later Primordial World!

"As expected of an ancient immortal island. Its foundation truly is extraordinary."

Li Changsheng praised it softly, then flashed forward and stepped directly into the Yingzhou Island secret realm.

The instant he entered the island, the resonance of their shared origin became incomparably powerful and clear.

Waves of pure purification Dao rhythm washed over him, guiding his path.

He had no need to probe with divine sense or deliberately make deductions. The location of the island's center was already perfectly clear.

Cyan light flashed beneath Li Changsheng's feet. His figure crossed a thousand miles in an instant as he sped directly toward the core region of Yingzhou Island.

The closer he came to the island's center, the denser became the Dao rhythm of Creation and purification intertwined there, and the more violent became the resonance of their origins. Even his origin Green Lotus could not help trembling slightly, producing an instinctive sense of closeness.

Several hours later, Li Changsheng successfully reached the core of Yingzhou Island.

A crystal-clear Chaos spiritual pool shrouded in mist quietly rested at the center of the secret realm.

The pool water had been condensed from pure Chaos origin. Faint gray-white Chaos mist churned above it, and every drop of water contained unimaginable origin power.

At the center of the spiritual pool stood an unparalleled spiritual root, tall and graceful as it bloomed proudly!

Its stalk and leaves were lush green, while its pure white petals layered upon one another. Gentle and elegant, it was untouched by the slightest speck of dust. Strands of purification Dao rhythm continuously flowed from the lotus platform, cleansing the scattered fiendish aura and impure aura throughout the secret realm.

It was the Pure World White Lotus that he had painstakingly searched for over several hundred years!

What shook Li Changsheng's heart even more was that twelve round, translucent azure pearls floated unevenly around the Pure World White Lotus's lotus platform.

The pearls shimmered with flowing radiance, surrounded by the Great Dao of Water. They complemented the Pure World White Lotus, forming a complete Dao rhythm of their own!

After a hundred years of searching, he had finally obtained the supreme treasure!
