Kunlun Mountain

With their transformations complete, one man and three women appeared before Jing Chu.

The man was handsome and dignified, his long black beard stirring gently in the wind. He had an exceptionally burly build and wore a black Daoist robe, carrying himself with the air of an immortal sage.

As for the Three Skies, their beauty was utterly peerless, lovely enough to feast one's eyes upon and stunning enough to topple kingdoms.

What made Jing Chu marvel most was that their faces were nearly identical. If not for the slight differences in their temperaments and immortal skirts, they would have been truly difficult to tell apart.

Yunxiao wore a white immortal skirt. Her bearing was graceful, and though slender, she did not appear frail in the slightest. Her dark hair danced in the wind, while faint clouds and mist swirled around her, giving her a pure, pristine beauty that seemed capable of washing away all the dust of the world.

Yet her exquisite face carried a trace of dignity and seriousness, making it clear at a glance that she was no ordinary immortal maiden.

The second sister, Qiongxiao, wore a purple immortal skirt. Her appearance was identical to Yunxiao's, but her temperament held several more degrees of cool aloofness, and she seemed somewhat quiet and reserved.

The third sister, Bixiao, wore an emerald-green immortal skirt. Her immortal features were nearly identical to those of her two elder sisters. Lively and energetic by nature, her bright eyes constantly darted about, making it obvious that she was mischievous and clever. Only her height was somewhat lacking; she was the shortest of the Three Skies, reaching only about Yunxiao and Qiongxiao's shoulders.

"Congratulations to the four of you, fellow Daoists, on successfully taking form."

Seeing the Three Skies and Zhao Gongming all complete their transformations, Jing Chu was overjoyed. He immediately stepped forward, clasped his hands, and smiled.

"It is all thanks to you, Daoist brother. Had it not been for this discussion of the Dao, the opportunity for us to take form would likely not have come so quickly."

"I, Yunxiao, shall remember today's kindness deep in my heart and never forget it."

As expected of Yunxiao, she was the most composed among the four siblings.

Though Zhao Gongming was the eldest brother, Yunxiao clearly took the lead when dealing with outsiders.

The moment she took form, while the other three were still familiarizing themselves with their Dao bodies, Yunxiao had already come before him.

"Eldest sister is right. We will never forget it."

"If you ever need anything in the future, Daoist brother, just call for me. I'll be the first to step up."

Zhao Gongming slapped his chest fiercely. He had always been free-spirited, and now he laughed heartily as he made his promise with great enthusiasm.

Qiongxiao and Bixiao naturally had no objections either.

Newly transformed Innate Living Beings had yet to experience much of the world. Most possessed pure and kind natures, so they naturally held no aversion to repaying kindness.

"Enough, there is no need for such ceremony."

"It is time for us to set out."

The Three Skies and Zhao Gongming naturally had no objections. They immediately followed behind Jing Chu, heading toward the Primordial Land.

Bixiao in particular, being the most mischievous one, had long been eagerly anticipating everything in the Primordial World. At that moment, she wished she could immediately fly out of the East Sea and reach the Primordial Land.

As a Taiyi Golden Immortal, Jing Chu was naturally the fastest. Yunxiao came next, followed by Zhao Gongming, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao.

Though Yunxiao had only just taken form, her cultivation was already at the mid-stage Golden Immortal realm, while Zhao Gongming, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao were only at the early-stage Golden Immortal realm.

To accommodate them, Jing Chu could only temporarily slow his flying speed.

Thus, the group of five flew out of the boundless East Sea together and headed toward the legendary Kunlun Mountain.

They crossed an unknown number of miles, and the journey alone took at least ten thousand years.

Only then did the five gradually glimpse the hazy outline of Kunlun Mountain.

As one of the Primordial World's famed divine mountains, Kunlun Mountain stood an unknown number of hundreds of millions of zhang high. Even with Jing Chu's current cultivation, he could not see its peak as it pierced the heavens.

"So high, so immense! Is this Kunlun Mountain?"

Bixiao stared at the incomparably towering Kunlun Mountain. Her beautiful face was utterly dumbfounded, filled with shock.

The dense spiritual energy upon Kunlun Mountain astonished Bixiao even more.

After setting foot upon the Primordial Land, Bixiao had thought she had already seen many interesting things. Immortal herbs covered the ground, and acquired spiritual roots could be found everywhere.

Yet Kunlun Mountain still left Bixiao deeply shaken. Its peak pierced the sky and could not be seen from afar; its spiritual energy was dense, and spiritual roots grew everywhere. Merely approaching it made one's heart instinctively fill with reverence.

It truly deserved to be one of the Primordial World's finest blessed lands!

Judging by its sheer size alone, Jing Chu felt that Kunlun Mountain was likely no smaller than the total area of a major world.

Cultivating here would make progress a thousand miles a day without the slightest exaggeration. In his perception, the higher one went up Kunlun Mountain, the denser the innate spiritual energy became, to the point where it was nearly completely liquefied.

And this was merely Kunlun Mountain's cultivation environment. What truly could not be ignored was the dense Dao aura permeating it.

The Dao aura filled the air, as though connected to the Great Dao itself. Auspicious clouds shone in countless colors, and all manner of Dao seemed to unfold before one's eyes.

"Gongming, Yunxiao, let us go!"

"I can sense that mighty experts must reside atop Kunlun Mountain."

Recovering from the shock of seeing Kunlun Mountain, Jing Chu suppressed the agitation in his heart and turned to Zhao Gongming and the Three Skies.

"Alright, I will listen to Daoist brother Jing Chu."

Yunxiao smiled gently and nodded. Following behind him, she ceased flying and instead walked devoutly toward Kunlun Mountain.

Zhao Gongming followed close behind.

Only Bixiao, who had been brimming with excitement just moments ago, grabbed Qiongxiao, who had been about to follow. Her little face tightened, and she looked as though she were somewhat unhappy.

"Hmph, Jing Chu only knows how to call for Big Brother and Eldest Sister. Am I and Second Sister so insignificant in your eyes?"

Bixiao pouted and spoke indignantly. Her cheeks puffed up with anger, making one want to poke them.

She was lively, active, mischievous, and clever by nature. She was not truly angry now; she merely felt ignored.

She was one of the Three Skies too. Was she destined to be ignored forever just because she was the youngest?

"Do not talk nonsense. Qiongxiao has always been in my eyes, and I have kept her firmly in my heart as well."

Jing Chu glanced at Bixiao, who was clearly trying to stir up trouble, and immediately replied.

"Hmph, at least you have a conscience."

"Mm, wait, that's not right?"

"Jing Chu, you're awful! I'm never talking to you again..."

Bixiao first broke into a smile, but then she sensed that something was wrong, and her almond-shaped eyes immediately widened.

Second Sister had always been in Jing Chu's eyes and heart. Did that not mean she alone was nothing to him?

In an instant, Bixiao's little mouth drooped, and she looked as though she were about to cry.

"Hurry up. Stop acting like a clown before the Three Pure Ones' Daoist grounds."

Jing Chu was speechless. He casually took out a spiritual fruit borne by an Innate Low-grade Spiritual Root and tossed it to Bixiao.

Then he turned and walked away.

Soon afterward, he heard the sounds of "crunch, crunch" coming from behind him as she began eating.

Bixiao was simply causing trouble because she had nothing better to do.

She had even tried to drag Qiongxiao into it with her.
