Primordial Era: A man at the mouth of the Guanjiang River marries the Third Holy Mother.

The white jade plaza in front of the main hall was densely packed with creatures that had come from the three immortal islands.

These creatures come in all shapes and sizes; some are surrounded by clear, shimmering water, some have furry ears, and some are newly transformed plant spirits.

They all knelt down in unison at the foot of the white jade steps, their heads pressed against the cold floor tiles.

"Greetings, Island Lord!"

"Greetings, Island Lord!"

The roar of worship echoed through the clouds like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down.

The voice was filled with heartfelt gratitude.

Before this, they were nothing more than wild beasts and plants in the chaotic spiritual sea, oblivious to the passage of time and ignorant of cultivation.

If it weren't for Chen Changsheng's Great Dao Spiritual Rain containing the vitality of chaos, they don't know how many more eons they would have been lost in this mist.

Chen Changsheng sat upright on the white jade throne above, resting his chin on one hand, his gaze calmly sweeping over the myriad living beings below.

He was secretly overjoyed.

Having spent so long in the prehistoric continent, he was either serving his uncle Haotian in the Heavenly Court, acting as a Dharma Protector Heavenly Lord for Tongtian Master in the Biyou Palace of the Jie Sect, or teaching Emperor Xin in the Shang Dynasty's royal palace.

Now I finally have a top-tier territory that truly belongs entirely to me.

The three immortal islands of Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou are connected and form a world of their own, so vast that even the divine sense of a Heavenly Saint cannot penetrate them.

The life and death of every blade of grass, every tree, and every living being here are entirely in his hands.

"Get up, everyone."

Chen Changsheng spoke softly, his voice not loud, yet it resonated clearly in everyone's ears.

The thousands of creatures below then stood up tremblingly, standing respectfully with their hands at their sides, not daring to even breathe loudly.

Chen Changsheng's gaze stopped at the front of the crowd.

There stood ten figures with the most powerful auras.

On the far left is the White Magnolia Fairy, dressed in a plain white dress. Her body is surrounded by the energy of Geng Metal and Yi Wood, and her cultivation has reached the early stage of Golden Immortal.

Beside him stood a burly man clad in black armor, transformed from a nine-headed black dragon, his muscles bulging, struggling to conceal the oppressive aura of a peak Golden Immortal.

There were also eight other beings, including the red-haired boy, the golden-feathered youth, and the green-robed Taoist, each of whom broke through to the Golden Immortal realm in the midst of the recent good fortune.

In the vast and ancient land, although Golden Immortals may not be considered top-tier experts, they are definitely pillars of strength in any major sect.

Chen Changsheng looked at these ten promising talents with strong natural backgrounds and nodded slightly.

"The fact that you ten of you were the first to shed your mortal forms and achieve the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit in the Rain of Creation is enough to show that you are destined to be with me."

Chen Changsheng raised his finger and pointed to the ten Golden Immortals in front of him.

"From this day forward, you ten will be my disciples, guarding the three islands, patrolling the seas, and leading the island's inhabitants."

Upon hearing these words, the ten Golden Immortals were visibly shaken, and then their faces lit up with ecstatic joy.

Although they had just gained sentience, they understood what it meant to become disciples of a powerful being who could readily mobilize the power of creation.

This is an incredible stroke of luck!

Without the slightest hesitation, the ten people knelt down again in unison and kowtowed three times.

"Disciple greets Master!"

"I am willing to guard the mountain gate for my master, even at the cost of my life!"

Chen Changsheng smiled and stood up from his throne.

As a qualified leader, simply giving titles is not enough; to win people's hearts, you must offer tangible benefits.

He slapped the Chaos Gourd at his waist with his backhand.

Swish!

Ten dazzling beams of light shot out from the gourd's mouth and hovered in mid-air.

It was a green wood spirit sword, a black water heavy shield, a crimson flame spear, a set of thick earth divine armor, and six top-grade spiritual treasures that exuded rich innate restrictions.

Each treasure is imbued with forty-eight complete restrictive runes, making them all top-tier acquired spiritual treasures!

These items would be enough to make the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect fight tooth and nail if they were outside, but in Chen Changsheng's hands, they were nothing more than everyday stockpiles he had obtained from digging up treasure chests in the past.

"There are no stingy rules among my disciples."

With a wave of his sleeve, Chen Changsheng sent ten top-grade acquired spiritual treasures into the hands of ten different people.

"These ten top-grade acquired spiritual treasures are bestowed upon you for protection. In addition, this is the Shangqing Breathing True Explanation and the incomplete Nine Revolutions Profound Technique, which I deduced based on your backgrounds. Study them carefully and do not tarnish my reputation."

The ten jade slips containing the supreme Dharma also fell into their sea of ​​consciousness.

Holding the heavy, top-grade spiritual treasure in their hands, and with the supreme cultivation techniques of the Xuanmen flowing through their minds, the ten newly appointed disciples trembled with excitement.

The white-clad fairy's eyes were red-rimmed, and her hands holding the Green Wood Spirit Sword were trembling.

"Thank you so much, Master, for bestowing this treasure!"

"Thank you, Master, for transmitting the Dharma!"

The hundreds of immortals and tens of thousands of plant spirits standing behind them saw this scene and their eyes almost bled.

A top-grade acquired spiritual treasure!

He just threw out ten items!

Just how wealthy is this new island owner?

Ignoring the crowd's shock, Chen Changsheng turned around, pointed to the Xuan Turtle Daoist beside him, and said loudly:

"This is the Xuan Turtle Ancestor, who attained enlightenment from chaos. His cultivation is unfathomable. From now on, he will be the deputy island master of my Penglai Immortal Island."

"If I am not on the island, all affairs on the island shall be decided by the Deputy Island Lord Xuan Turtle. You shall all respect him as you would respect me."

When Xuan Gui Dao Ren heard Chen Changsheng announce his identity in public, the slight awkwardness of being a dependent in someone else's house completely disappeared.

He was originally crippled in the North Sea, with his limbs cut off and only his remnant soul remaining. Now, he has not only rebuilt his physical body, but also become the deputy island master of this blessed land, gaining both prestige and power.

Xuan Gui Dao Ren straightened his back and nodded slightly downwards.

"Greetings, Deputy Island Master!"

Ten disciples, acting as nominees, led the thousands of beings in the square to pay homage to the Xuan Gui Daoist in unison.

The Xuan Turtle Daoist smiled with satisfaction and waved his hand, saying, "No need for formalities. As long as you focus on your cultivation and protect the Immortal Island, I will certainly not treat you unfairly."

Seeing that the situation had completely stabilized, Chen Changsheng looked down once again at the densely packed creatures below.

Although these beings have gained sentience, the magical power within them is mixed and impure. If they are not guided, they will surely go astray on their path of cultivation in the future.

Now that we've decided to make this our stronghold, we need to solidify the foundation of this team.

Chen Changsheng sat back on his divine throne, his eyes slowly closing, and a vast and powerful aura rose from his body.

"Today, the three islands are finally settled, and the cause and effect have been resolved."

"I will preach here for three hundred years, expounding the profound mysteries of the Great Dao for you. How much you can comprehend depends entirely on your own destiny."

Upon hearing the island lord personally begin his sermon, the previously noisy White Jade Square instantly fell silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Countless living beings held their breath and quickly sat cross-legged on the spot, their eyes fixed intently on the young man in the green robe on the throne.

Chen Changsheng gently raised his right hand, and a wisp of pure Dao lightning danced at his fingertips.

"The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao..."
