The Imperial Star's Core, Di Jun's Incarnation (Happy Lunar New Year's Eve, Everyone!)
"The stars... have all dimmed?"
In a flash, she transformed into a dignified woman, standing Yunxiao the highest point of Penglai Island, gazing up at the starry sky.
To everyone's surprise, Yunxiao looked at the dim stars without the slightest hint of confusion in his eyes.
Unlike Qiongxiao and Bixiao, Yunxiao had been aware of the unusual nature of the Three Immortal Islands for a long time.
"So the Little White Dragon is Dong Jun?"
"The Azure Dragon from before must have been Divine Lord Meng Zhang!"
With his gaze fixed on the depths of the starry sky, Yunxiao's lips curled into a slight smile.
Although they were separated by countless billions of miles, Yunxiao felt as if he were there, witnessing firsthand the scene of the Eight Directions Swords shattering the Tai Sui Star. For those Dao Proving One, Loose Immortal is merely the beginning.
However, if we consider the era before the Dao Ancestor descended to earth, the Great Heavenly Deity was undoubtedly the strongest being.
Not to mention, Yunxiao has also inherited Luo Qiao's True Disciple and walks the Dao of Daluo, which only true powerhouses would follow.
Therefore, it was not difficult for her to travel with her divine sense, covering thousands of miles in an instant, and to perceive the great battle deep in the starry sky.
What truly surprised Yunxiao was Li Boyang's revelation of Dong Jun's identity.
Although he already knew that the Little White Dragon on the island was of extraordinary origin, and even his master treated him with great respect.
But Yunxiao never imagined that the other party would actually be the "King Father of the East," who was on par with the "Queen Mother of the West."
"You guessed right, that Azure Dragon is indeed Divine Lord Meng Zhang."
A slightly abrupt voice came from behind Yunxiao, but she turned around calmly as if it were a common occurrence.
The first thing that caught Yunxiao's eye was a long robe that shone as brightly as gold.
Due to the significant height difference, Yunxiao had to slowly move his gaze upwards to see the newcomer's true appearance.
He was three zhang tall, with a bird's head and a human body, and wore a long golden robe decorated with sun and cloud patterns.
The visitor was none other than Di Jun, the Great Golden Crow Di Jun should have long since retired from the Heavenly Realm.
Or more precisely, this is an avatar manifested by the Great Golden Crow using the remnants of Great Unity Star.
"You've finally shown up again."
Is it because Dong Jun has already left?
Long before Dong Jun arrived at the Three Immortal Islands, Yunxiao had already had contact with the incarnation of Di Jun.
To some extent, Yunxiao's birth is inextricably linked to Di Jun.
However, since Dong Jun chose to settle on Penglai Island, Di Jun's incarnation has not appeared for a long time.
At first, Yunxiao simply assumed that the other party might have already left.
At that time, Yunxiao had no idea about Di Jun's identity, nor did she realize that her birth was related to him.
But as time went by, Yunxiao grew under the tutelage of Luo Qiao and Dong Jun, and began to doubt his own origins and the origins of Di Jun.
Yunxiao once told Divine Lord Meng Zhang that the Three Immortal Islands were the remnants of a certain blessed land that had been destroyed.
This isn't because she's lying or intentionally misleading anyone; it's simply that Yunxiao genuinely believes it.
What should I call you now?
"Father? Or Di Jun?"
Looking at Di Jun with a complicated expression, Yunxiao's voice was unusually low.
"You are Innate Deity, born of heaven and earth, Non-Self daughter."
After a brief silence, Di Jun's voice remained as calm as ever.
"Ha, I am indeed Innate Deity, but dare you say that my birth wasn't caused by your deliberate actions?"
Yunxiao's true form is a cloud above Penglai.
Before meeting Dong Jun, Yunxiao did not think there was anything special about her background.
However, as her cultivation improved, her knowledge increased, and her experience grew, Yunxiao gradually realized the special nature of herself... or rather, of the three sisters.
Even if it were a fragment left after the shattering of a blessed land and grotto-heaven, it would be impossible for it to simultaneously give birth to three Innate Deity.
Innate Deity are beings born from the convergence of the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi and earth, possessing unique attributes from birth.
In contrast, these Three Immortal Islands miraculously gave birth to three Innate Deity with completely different attributes at the same time.
It's important to understand that even the exceptionally talented Jinjiao and Yinjiao are just "twins."
Cultivated by the Heavenly Mandate Witch, and nurtured by Barujun for a thousand years, the Divine Fetus were finally born with the help of Li Boyang. The birth of Jinjiao and Yinjiao fully illustrates the difficulty of conceiving multiple Innate Deity at once.
Yunxiao even suspected that a significant reason why the Little White Dragon concealed his identity as Dong Jun and stayed on Penglai Island was to find out the identities of his three sisters.
"I have no intention of explaining anything; after all, you've always been so intelligent."
Looking at the Yunxiao not far away, a hint of barely perceptible tenderness seemed to flash in Di Jun's eyes.
"However, I must correct one point: these three islands are not fragments of some blessed land or celestial paradise."
"They are the core of Great Unity Star, the deposed imperial star."
"I hid it here simply to prevent it from falling into the hands of ambitious people."
Before Yunxiao could ask any further questions, Di Jun's voice rang out again.
"To be honest, I hesitated about helping you take shape long before you were even born."
"After all, once you take shape, it's as if the 'Core of the Imperial Star' has also come back to life..."
"I can't keep you trapped on this island forever; you'll eventually go out into the world."
"By then, if someone discovers your true nature, it won't be a good thing for either you or the world."
Yunxiao nodded slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, showing little emotional fluctuation throughout.
"Until Dong Jun arrived at Penglai Island..."
"You think my identity has been exposed, which is why you decided to leave?"
After a slight pause, Yunxiao shook his head in denial.
"No, if that's the case, you should have eliminated this threat beforehand, instead of just leaving like this."
"In other words, the reason you chose to leave is not because you're afraid my identity will be exposed, but because you feel you can entrust me to Dong Jun with peace of mind." Yunxiao muttered to himself while carefully observing Di Jun's changing expressions.
To Yunxiao's disappointment, Di Jun's expression remained unchanged, as if he didn't care about the other party's guess at all.
"Dong Jun is the protector of Queen Mother of the West, the Sun God of the East..."
"Logically speaking, you and Dong Jun should be enemies, so it's impossible for you to trust him so much."
"Could it be... that Dong Jun is the incarnation of Great Unity?"
Upon hearing this, Di Jun's expression finally began to betray his true feelings.
He never expected that Yunxiao's associative abilities would be so outrageous, actually connecting Dong Jun and Great Unity together.
"Stop speculating. Dong Jun is not an incarnation of Great Unity."
"However, you are right about one thing: I do feel very comfortable entrusting you to Dong Jun."
"Because as long as he's there, no one will dare to invade these three islands."
