The reason why the God of Longevity brought Dongfang Shuo to Hu Le and asked him to deal with him personally was because the two boys, Qingyi and Hongyu, were on good terms with Dongfang Shuo.
If he were to deal with Dongfang Shuo carelessly, he might offend the two boys.
Upon seeing the two boys pleading for Dongfang Shuo, he immediately praised himself for his foresight…
Seeing that the three men had pleaded for Dongfang Shuo, Hu Le hesitated for a moment and said, "Fine, since they have all pleaded for you, then we won't send you off the island. However, you will still be punished for your mistakes..."
At this point, he turned and ordered, "Boy, take this little thief and hang him up, then give him thirty lashes."
The two boys chuckled and agreed, then walked up to Dongfang Shuo and made a face at him.
"Dongfang, come with us."
Dongfang Shuo first bowed to Hu Le to thank him for his mercy, then put on a bitter face and obediently followed the two out of Lingyun Palace.
Then, he was hung from a pine tree outside the palace and whipped thirty times by two children in turn.
Both boys were his friends. Although they deliberately held back a bit when whipping him, the whips still landed entirely on him in order to give an account to Hu Le.
Dongfang Shuo, however, screamed in agony repeatedly.
Finally, after thirty lashes, the three returned to Lingyun Palace to report back.
Hu Le glanced at Dongfang Shuo kneeling on the ground, his small face deathly pale, it was hard to tell whether he was really in pain or faking it.
"Now that you have been punished, remember this lesson and never repeat it..."
Hu Le gave Dongfang Shuo a few more words of advice, and then sent him and the birthday celebrant away...
Hu Le remained in Lingyun Palace to regulate the earth's energy.
On this day, just as he was about to complete his mission, a thought suddenly struck him. Through the connection of the earth's energy in the East Sea, he sensed that an extraordinary immortal island was about to be born.
He quickly calculated with his fingers for a moment, and then immediately understood.
"It was that?"
He stood up, left Lingyun Immortal Palace, gazed westward towards Penglai Island for a while, then waved his hand, and a bamboo staff flew from inside the palace and landed in his palm.
He gave the two boys some instructions, then leisurely left the island, carrying his bamboo staff.
Riding on auspicious clouds, they traveled more than 90,000 li westward before stopping the clouds in the air.
After waiting for about three days and nights, several miles away, the once calm sea suddenly surged with towering waves.
At the same time, a burst of chaotic spiritual energy suddenly erupted from beneath the sea surface, transforming into a hazy white vortex that slowly rose to the surface.
This vortex flows endlessly, drawing in countless amounts of earth energy.
As the earth's spiritual energy surged in, the vortex slowly stopped rotating.
In a mysterious way, Hu Le sensed that another ancestral vein had been born in the East Sea.
At the same time, a fairy island appeared and disappeared in the white mist.
"This is Yingzhou Island!"
Hu Le stood on the cloud, looking down at the immortal island. He saw that the chaotic spiritual energy was rapidly shrinking and transforming into a primordial array, which began to quickly envelop the entire immortal island.
Hu Le descended from the clouds and came to the sky above Yingzhou Island. He circled the island once, then drew a line in the air with his bamboo staff. A five-colored light flashed and parted the white mist that shrouded the island.
He took a step forward, and his figure disappeared into the mist.
He has already entered this innate grand formation.
Although the formation is temporarily unattended, it continues to operate in accordance with the natural rhythms of the heavens and the earth, and its power remains undiminished.
He summoned the Kan-Gen-Kun Banner to protect himself, circled around the formation, and discovered that this formation combined trapping, killing, and illusion into one. Its profoundness was in no way inferior to the Xuan Tian Yi Qi Ba Men Formation of his Penglai Island.
Fortunately, he was protected by the Kan-Gen-Kun Flag, and although the formation was ingenious, it still couldn't harm him.
After about three hours, he finally figured out most of the changes in the formation and raised his hand to release a primordial Yin-Yang chaotic divine light.
In an instant.
A stream of black and white energy cleaved through the great formation, transforming into an arched bridge suspended in the void. One end appeared beneath Hu Le's feet, while the other end pointed directly to the end of the great formation.
Hu Le stepped onto the bridge, and in an instant, black and white currents enveloped him, and he was on the ground of the immortal island.
There are different ways to break a formation. He didn't intend to completely destroy the formation; he only wanted to pass through it and enter the island.
Therefore, it is naturally much easier to operate than to completely destroy the formation.
He soared into the clouds, stood in mid-air, and looked down at the entire island.
This island is not large, only about one-tenth the size of Penglai Island.
However, the scenery on the island surpasses that of Penglai.
The world was filled with primordial energy, auspicious clouds, and shimmering rosy clouds. Cranes danced in the sky, and mythical beasts roamed the ground.
There are flowers that never fade throughout the four seasons, in a riot of colors.
There is a jade mountain made of various kinds of beautiful jade, with various kinds of divine light flowing around it.
There is also a spiritual spring that never runs dry, and countless divine herbs and immortal plants that have existed for hundreds of millions of years.
The highest peak in the center of the island is made entirely of solidified jade, with swirling spiritual energy transforming into colorful clouds that drift and sway within the mountain.
Hu Le rode on auspicious clouds to the foot of the main peak. Looking up, he saw a jade path winding upwards, eventually leading straight to the high mountaintop.
Along the path, there are two rows of strange flowering trees called the Seven-Colored Treasure Trees.
The tree trunk is as if carved from green jade, translucent throughout, and shimmering with a soft glow.
Although the tree has many branches, not a single leaf has grown. Instead, the branches are covered with colorful flowers.
These flowers, each the size of a cup, exude a refreshing fragrance.
A gentle breeze blows, and the flowers sway on the branches, their petals fluttering down like butterflies.
The entire mountain path was covered with flowers...
Hu Le knew that the news of Yingzhou Island's emergence would soon spread and attract countless people.
He has only managed to arrive here ahead of others by taking advantage of the connection between the three immortal islands.
If we dawdle, even if we discover some treasure after others land on the island, it will attract others to fight over it.
Although he was confident that he wouldn't be afraid of others vying for it, he figured it was better to avoid trouble. If he could get it easily, why deliberately create problems?
And so, he swiftly ascended to the summit, stepping on the petals, and stood atop a jade stone. His divine sense spread out in all directions, enveloping the entire immortal peak.
Before long, he had a sudden thought and immediately rode a beam of light to a valley halfway up the mountain.
The valley is covered with lush green grass, lush trees, and colorful flowers.
Deep in that valley, there stands a steep cliff, its walls as smooth as a mirror.
Beneath that cliff lies a lake, its waters rippling gently, spreading out in concentric circles, and a rich spiritual aura of sunflower water wafts across its surface.
White lotuses bloom in the lake, each displaying a seventh or sixth grade of beauty. In the center of the lotus pond stands a twelve-grade white lotus, exuding a pure, holy, and flawless aura...
