"Brother Duobao, why don't you invite us in to sit down?" The Formation-Devouring Beast interrupted at an inopportune moment, with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.
"Yes! Let's go in and talk!" Duobao Beast smiled faintly and pointed. Instantly, the protective formation on Jin'ao Island shone brightly, and a golden passage instantly opened. The magnificent immortal land suddenly appeared before their eyes, shrouded in immortal aura and a thousand auspicious lights.
Yu Kai looked around, eyes filled with wonder. Biyou Palace was magnificent, filled with a celestial aura, and exuded a solemnity and awe. The palace was ablaze with precious light, filled with ethereal music, and isolated from the outside world, like an eternal sanctuary.
"How is it? It's impressive, isn't it? The fact that thousands of immortals have come to pay homage to my Biyou Palace is not an exaggeration!" Duobao saw Yu Kai in a trance and said with a smug look on his face, with a hint of boasting in his tone.
"Master Beast, what's going on with your Jin'ao Island? I feel a special breath." Yu Kai frowned slightly, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, as if he was trying to catch that faint breath.
"You have a unique vision! Let's go and talk while we walk!" Duobao smiled slightly and took the lead to fly inside, his figure as light as flowing clouds and water.
"Is there something special? Why didn't I see it?" The Devouring Emperor carefully investigated but found nothing. He could only follow behind, puzzled, muttering, "Is this kid deliberately playing tricks?"
Led by Duobao, they toured the Biyou Palace and then the Duobao Hall, not far from it. This was Duobao's former dojo, a magnificent cave dwelling filled with nine-colored divine light, like nine rainbows, dazzling and brilliant. Each ray of light contained such powerful energy that it was difficult to look directly at it.
Duobao sat at the head of the table, while Yu Kai and Shi Di sat down separately. Yan Feng and Xue Ying brought out the rare spiritual fruits they had gathered and placed them on the table. These spiritual fruits exuded an alluring aroma and were crystal clear, as if they contained the essence of heaven and earth.
The Devouring Emperor didn't hold back, tucking into the fruit like a scoundrel, spitting the cores all over the table. Yan Feng and Xue Ying watched the Devouring Emperor's actions with eyes filled with surprise, wondering: Is this really the Devouring Emperor of such rank? Why does he feel like a street thug?
"My master told me that this Jin'ao Island is actually the body of the ancient ferocious beast Jin'ao. It came here accidentally that year. No one knows how long the Jin'ao has been dead, but there is a divine light in its body that never dissipates. The special breath you feel may be this!" Duobao Beast looked at Yu Kai and said.
"No! I seem to have come into contact with this aura somewhere. Can I go and take a look?" Yu Kai frowned, and a hint of anxiety flashed in his eyes.
"Sure! You can wander around Jin'ao Island freely. My master looks strict, but he is actually very good to us!" Duobao Beast smiled slightly, with a hint of pride in his tone, as if he was proud of his master.
"I say, you are a divine beast in our fairyland after all. Why did you come to the prehistoric world to worship Tongtian as your master?" The Formation-Devouring Beast wiped the juice from the corner of its mouth with its wings. There was a hint of ridicule in its tone, but there was a bit of curiosity in its eyes.
"I was still young at that time and accidentally fell into the prehistoric world. The prehistoric world at that time was too dangerous, and it was the world of witches and demons. I could only hide carefully. I accidentally ran into my master in the East China Sea, and he accepted me as his disciple. From then on, I had a backer, and I could travel around the prehistoric world." When he said this, Duobao Beast showed a smile on his face, his eyes full of gratitude, as if he was recalling those difficult but lucky days.
"Hearing what you said, I can't seek revenge on Tongtian! He took advantage of my weak body when I crossed the border and cut off my physical body, causing me to be sealed for many years!" There was a hint of resentment in the tone of the Array-Devouring Beast, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, as if he would explode at any time.
"Emperor Shi! This... I apologize to you on behalf of my master. I'm really sorry!" Duobao also heard about this on the way back. He immediately stood up and bowed to Emperor Shi to apologize with a very sincere attitude.
"Alas!" Emperor Shi sighed, looked at Yu Kai, and asked, "Do you think your father and the others will come to look for you?"
"Yes! I definitely will! Even if they don't come to me, I will go to them!" Yu Kai said firmly, his eyes revealing a stubborn determination. He knew exactly what he was going to do next and understood the difficulties of this journey, but he had an unyielding faith in his heart, as if no difficulty could stop him from moving forward.
"Okay! I will go back with you when the time comes!" Emperor Shi stood up straight, a hint of expectation flashed in his eyes, "I will go to Tongtian's Taoist temple first to recover the losses of these years, you two can chat!" After speaking, he flew towards Biyou Palace, and his figure gradually disappeared in the distant clouds, leaving only a faint afterimage.
"Boy, feel free to visit Jin'ao Island. I'll go pack up my things. I left in such a hurry that year that I didn't take many good things with me!" Duobao stood up immediately after seeing Emperor Shi leave and said to Yu Kai.
"Okay! I'll dive in and see what's going on!" Yu Kai stood up, smiled at the two boys, and instantly sank into the ground, disappearing. His figure seemed to blend into the earth, as if he had become one with it.
He followed that unique aura, traveling underground. He felt a tremor beneath his feet, as if something were awakening from its slumber. Deep beneath the earth, countless veins of spirit crystals lay scattered throughout. Like sleeping dragons, they emitted a faint glow, illuminating the entire subterranean space. The light intertwined, creating a dreamlike, hazy illusion, as if concealing endless secrets.
Yu Kai groped forward cautiously, not wanting to disturb the spirit veins. However, just as he was about to reach his destination, the entire underground began to stir. Massive spirit veins came to life, one after another, like ancient dragons, revealing ferocious faces, gaping bloody maws, and roaring angrily. Their sharp fangs were chilling, as if they were about to tear any intruders to shreds.
"Fuck, how come this kid disturbed all the spiritual veins underground? What is he going to do?" Duobao fiddled with a giant hammer, rushed out of the cave, and muttered.
The two boys were so frightened that they huddled at his door, their faces pale and their eyes filled with fear.
Seeing this, Duobao Beast quickly comforted him, "It's okay! I'll go down and take a look!"
He immediately rushed underground. When he arrived, he found that the Devouring Emperor had already stood with Yu Kai, and the pressure of the Holy Emperor was overflowing. It frightened those with the peak spirit veins of the Great Emperor so much that they put away their ferocious faces and lowered their proud heads one by one, as if they felt an irresistible force.
"What happened? How did they all get alarmed?" Duobao asked with a frown, his tone a little anxious.
"There is something in there, the smell is very familiar, I want to go in and take a look!" Yu Kai looked at the cave in front of him with a firm gaze, as if there was something familiar hidden in it.
