The Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue listened to Xu Fang's words, and looked at the spiritual energy surging into the sky from within the protective great formation, and confirmed without a doubt that these two islands before them were the legendary Penglai Island and Fangzhang Island!
Even though they had heard about Yingzhou Island, one of the Penglai Immortal Islands, before, they were still immensely shocked and amazed to see the other two Penglai islands now.
"I never imagined I would truly see these legendary immortal mountains in my lifetime!"
"Indeed, and even more so, I never imagined that Senior would be a creature born of Penglai Immortal Island, naturally possessing it as your dojo!"
The Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue were filled with envy in their eyes.
After all, even at the peak of their power, neither the Dragon nor Phoenix clans had ever possessed an immortal blessed land like Penglai Immortal Island as their dojo, let alone now in their diminished state.
It had to be said that Senior was truly blessed with immense fortune, unparalleled in their lives.
Even if he was merely born of a spiritual root, this was the spiritual root of Penglai Immortal Island, along with numerous unique divine abilities that were difficult to comprehend. All of this proved Senior Xu Fang's incomparably great fortune.
However, while envy was present, the Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue did not harbor any jealousy, resentment, or hatred because of it.
Instead, they were happy for their own fortunate encounter. It was a great blessing in their immortal lives to be able to journey through the Primordial Era alongside such a senior!
Xu Fang listened to the words of these two little followers but paid them no mind, saying.
"Alright, in truth, Penglai Island is not a place exclusively mine. I have an elder brother and an elder sister above me!"
Even though Xu Fang wished to refine all three Penglai Islands into his dojo, he had never intended to possess them solely for himself.
He, along with the Liangtian Ruler and the Huangzhong Plum, were all born from Penglai Island. These three Penglai islands naturally belonged to both of them; this was their shared home.
"Elder brother and sister?"
The Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue looked puzzled upon hearing this.
Did this mean there were other beings on the Three Penglai Immortal Islands?
The Liangtian Ruler, hearing this, was extremely pleased.
"Haha! As expected, I didn't misjudge you, young Xu!"
The Liangtian Ruler expressed his high approval of Xu Fang's words.
"We share the same origin, so we should share fortune and face calamities together!"
As the Liangtian Ruler spoke, it immediately became impatient.
"Going home!"
The Liangtian Ruler shouted loudly as its form moved. With a flash, it darted directly towards the protective great formation.
Infinite merit energy permeated outward, instantly coming into contact with the formation's light.
The light on the great formation paused for a moment, and then continued to flow.
The Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue, unable to hear the Liangtian Ruler's words, were startled when they saw the artifact charging towards the protective great formation without regard for anything else.
Just now, they had mentioned the artifact acting madly, and now it seemed they were not wrong. An artifact colliding with a great formation, especially the protective great formation of a blessed land like Penglai Immortal Island, wasn't that courting disaster?
However, as the Liangtian Ruler's form collided with the great formation, the Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue were astonished to find that the great formation not only did not repel it, but instead opened a gap, as if welcoming the Liangtian Ruler.
The Liangtian Ruler did not stand on ceremony and directly drilled through the gap, disappearing from Xu Fang and the two others' sight.
When it reappeared, its form was seen dancing within the protective great formation, circling above the two immortal islands.
"This..."
The Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue were utterly astonished by this spectacle, at a loss for words.
The Liangtian Ruler had ignored the protective great formation and entered directly?
This was the great formation of Penglai Immortal Island, and it had been breached by a mere artifact?
Seeing this, Xu Fang quickly explained to them.
"This is the number one fellow of Yingzhou Island! The Liangtian Ruler, like myself, was born on the Penglai three islands. Coming here is like returning home."
As Xu Fang spoke, he took a step forward, instantly moving to the front of Penglai Immortal Island's protective great formation.
The Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue were both deeply shocked. So, the Liangtian Ruler, like Senior, was also born on Penglai Immortal Island!
They looked up and saw Xu Fang extending his hands, gently placing them on the great formation.
With the Liangtian Ruler's example, Xu Fang knew that the protective great formation of Penglai Immortal Island would not resist those who were inherently a part of Penglai Immortal Island.
Indeed, as Xu Fang's hands landed on the great formation, the light on the formation paused for a moment, and then continued to flow as before.
And where Xu Fang's hands rested, a gap slowly emerged, forming a circular archway, as if welcoming Xu Fang's return.
Seeing the archway appear, Xu Fang couldn't help but reveal a heartfelt smile of joy.
"As expected, no matter how long the separation, the imprint of Penglai Immortal Island cannot be changed."
Xu Fang sighed with emotion, both joyful and relieved.
He never expected that after being away from Penglai Immortal Island for so long, the protective great formation would still remember his aura.
What could be happier than a wandering son returning home to find the gate open and welcoming him?
The Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue, witnessing this scene, were utterly dumbfounded.
"This Penglai Immortal Island protective great formation is too understanding! How can my Phoenix clan's Undying Volcano protective great formation be compared to this? It's like a weakling!"
"Yes, this kind of protective great formation is truly the first time we've seen it!"
The Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue marveled. The protective great formation of Penglai Immortal Island seemed to have a life of its own, possessing remarkable understanding.
It truly lived up to its reputation as the legendary Penglai Immortal Island, even its protective great formation was extraordinary!
This also fully proved that Senior Xu Fang was indeed born from Penglai Immortal Island, naturally possessing these three coveted dojos!
Hearing this, Xu Fang turned back and saw them standing there in a daze, which amused him.
"What, do you plan to just stand here?"
Xu Fang said to the Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue, beckoning these two stunned companions.
"It's rare to see the legendary Penglai Immortal Island. Aren't you going to go inside and take a look? If you don't go, I'm leaving!"
As Xu Fang spoke, he took the lead and stepped through the arched gateway.
"Oh, oh, oh, Senior, wait!"
"Right, right, we were just stunned for a moment, Senior, don't leave us behind!"
The Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue snapped back to reality, responding as they flew towards Xu Fang.
With Xu Fang's lead, the protective great formation of Penglai Immortal Island also showed leniency towards the Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue, not intercepting them.
Soon, Xu Fang led the two of them smoothly through the protective great formation and landed in the sky above Penglai Island and Fangzhang Island.
Upon entering this place, the Golden-Winged Great Peng and Ao Xue had no time to admire the grandeur of Penglai Island and Fangzhang Island before feeling a wave of dizziness.
They felt unsteady on their feet, finding it difficult to maintain their balance, swaying precariously as if they might fall at any moment!
