The incomparably pure phantom of the Purifying World White Lotus appeared behind Jing Chu. Upon its lotus dais, twelve petals emanated a dense, sacred aura of the immortal Dao.

Though it was merely a phantom, as the Purifying World White Lotus bloomed, its divine might surged forth in an instant. The two Golden Flood Dragons, corroded by baleful energy and turned into puppets, seemed to have become nothing more than earthworms wriggling through the soil.

Immortal light capable of purifying all things condensed at Jing Chu's fingertips. At that moment, space and time above the East Sea seemed to freeze.

That terrifying purifying power immediately made the two Golden Flood Dragons feel the threat of death. They wanted to escape, but they could not move in the slightest.

They could only watch helplessly as the immortal light at Jing Chu's fingertips pointed toward them.

Boom!

The immortal light completely engulfed the Golden Flood Dragons. The heaven and earth, thick with baleful energy due to the two dragons' rampage, became utterly clear. The shrouding baleful energy was thoroughly purified, dispersing without a trace.

When the immortal light faded, the two broken Golden Flood Dragons, devoid of life, fell from the sky toward the East Sea. Jing Chu swiftly raised a hand and collected them.

Though the two Golden Flood Dragons were dead, their bodies were still entwined with dense baleful energy and the Dao rhythms of yin and yang.

They could be called the finest materials for artifact refinement. No wonder they would later be refined into the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors.

Only after seeing the dragons slain and even their bodies taken by Jing Chu did the Three Skies and Zhao Gongming finally come to their senses.

They hurriedly controlled their untransformed true forms and flew over, stopping some distance in front of Jing Chu.

"Thank you, Senior, for saving us. Had you not intervened, my siblings and I would likely have met with calamity. Yunxiao is deeply grateful."

A gentle voice came from within a cluster of white clouds. It was exceptionally pleasant to hear, even carrying a strange quality that seemed to cleanse one's Dao heart.

So they really were the Three Skies and Zhao Gongming.

It seemed his luck was not bad. In truth, even if he had not intervened this time, the Three Skies and Zhao Gongming should have been able to escape through the fortune of their own destiny.

They might even have eventually traveled together to the Primordial Land and become disciples under Tongtian.

As for the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors, they were likely forged only after the women had achieved success in cultivation, slain the dragons, and refined their bodies.

"There is no need for courtesy. The four of you have shared hardship and supported one another; your Dao hearts are firm, and you carry no Karmic Burden. I imagine that even without my intervention, you could have escaped safely."

Jing Chu gave a soft laugh. Seeing the untransformed true forms of the Three Skies and Zhao Gongming somewhat damaged, clearly injured by the pursuit of the two Golden Flood Dragons, he casually waved out four streams of immortal light.

The dense immortal light wrapped around them and swiftly healed their injuries.

As one transformed from the Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Purifying World White Lotus, Jing Chu's greatest strengths were not in combat, but in purification and healing.

Of course, when he said he was not skilled in combat, that was only in comparison to Innate Divine Beings of the same level.

If any living being of the Primordial World truly developed ill intent toward Jing Chu because of his words, then they had truly lived long enough.

"Wow, it's so warm and comfortable."

A crisp voice came from a cluster of jade-green clouds behind Yunxiao. It sounded especially lively.

"Yes, yes, it feels wonderful. Senior is amazing."

Another cluster of azure clouds wholeheartedly agreed.

They were none other than Bixiao and Qiongxiao of the Three Skies. With their lively temperaments, the atmosphere quickly became much more animated.

"There is no need to call me Senior. Just call me Dao Brother."

"May I ask where the four of you intend to go? Why were you in such a hurry when you have not even transformed yet?"

For Innate Living Beings to leave their place of birth before transforming was exceedingly rare in the Primordial World.

Even Jing Chu could not help but feel puzzled by the Three Skies and Zhao Gongming.

"To be frank, Dao Brother, the four of us siblings were born on an island. But because these two Golden Flood Dragons arrived, we could only flee in haste."

"Had Dao Brother not intervened, we would likely have already suffered misfortune."

Zhao Gongming, who was still but a wisp of clear breeze, could not help but smile bitterly at Jing Chu's words as he replied helplessly.

Though Zhao Gongming and the Three Skies were all Innate Living Beings like the two Golden Flood Dragons, they had not yet transformed, and their cultivation was only at the Golden Immortal level.

To have fled for so long beneath the pursuit of two Taiyi Golden Immortal Golden Flood Dragons showed that their Dao fortune was indeed profound.

"I see. Then where do the four of you plan to go from here?"

"If you have nowhere to go, why not travel with me to the Primordial Land?"

"I have heard that the Primordial Land is filled with mighty experts and countless opportunities. Among them, the Three Pure Ones who reside on Kunlun Mountain are true senior masters."

"Why not go together and seek them as masters?"

The Three Skies and Zhao Gongming were destined to become disciples of the Jie Sect and had the karmic bond of master and disciple with Tongtian.

Traveling with them could be considered a very good choice.

Moreover, all four of them would become Quasi-Sages in the future. There was nothing wrong with forming good relations early.

It might even be somewhat beneficial when he reached Kunlun Mountain in the Primordial World.

Hearing Jing Chu's words, the Three Skies and Zhao Gongming all fell into thought.

They had not never considered going to the Primordial Land to seek a master.

Even though they had yet to transform and had always remained in the East Sea, they had still heard of the Three Pure Ones living on Kunlun Mountain.

They were all legendary senior experts said to have once heard the Dao Ancestor expound the Dao.

"Yunxiao is willing to travel with Dao Brother!"

After only a brief moment of thought, Yunxiao, the most decisive among them, agreed outright.

Seeing both his sisters agree, Zhao Gongming and Qiongxiao and Bixiao naturally had no other objections and also agreed to travel together.

"Good. Since the four of you are willing to go together, then it is settled."

"However, before we depart, you four should first choose to transform."

"I have some experience regarding transformation that I can share with you."

The Three Skies and Zhao Gongming were naturally overjoyed upon hearing Jing Chu's words.

At once, the five of them arrived at an island drifting upon the East Sea, a million li away.

As the five began discussing the Dao, golden lotuses sprang from the earth and immortal melodies drifted through the air. Some living beings dwelling on the island were drawn over and listened in rapt fascination.

Some beings below the Golden Immortal realm even entered enlightenment as Jing Chu explained the Great Dao, their cultivation realms rapidly rising.

Even Innate Living Beings like the Three Skies and Zhao Gongming listened in utter absorption, gaining new insights into their own Dao.

Their true forms also began to change under their profound comprehension of their own Dao.

They began to construct their own Primordial Dao Bodies.

A thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.

As the sound of the Dao faded away,

the Three Skies and Zhao Gongming each took their final step.

Divine light revolved, immortal melodies rang out, sweet dew descended, and extraordinary phenomena appeared one after another.

The clouds and clear breeze dispersed, and indistinct figures faintly emerged before him.
