Starting Immortal Cultivation from a White Dog

Among the many dragon sons and daughters in the world, there are more than thirty. Wu Tian's name is like a golden dragon going against the current, carrying the sharpness of new life and great potential, constantly surpassing one name after another.

Before long, it surpassed the dragon princes and princesses ranked lower... The golden light grew brighter and brighter, and its ranking continued to climb.

Finally, under the tense yet expectant gaze of the West Sea Dragon King, the light of the two characters "Wu Tian" stabilized, settling steadily at the seventh position in the golden book.

He conveniently replaced Ao Lie, who had been severely injured by him yesterday, whose name was now noticeably dimmed and whose ranking had dropped.

The Seventh Prince of the Dragon Palace!
Wu Tian's heart skipped a beat, secretly praising the golden book for its extraordinary power. It not only verified the authenticity of bloodlines, but also comprehensively assessed strength, potential, and current fortune, providing an authoritative ranking in near real-time.

Fortunately, his five-clawed golden dragon dharma form had a solid foundation and pure, flawless bloodline. Furthermore, he had condensed his dharma form using the authentic dragon lineage of the "Illustrated True Method of the Divine Treasures of the Sea-Stabilizing Clan." Otherwise, he would have suffered a backlash at this moment, and the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Upon seeing the Golden Book's approval and such a high ranking, the Dragon King of the West Sea breathed a long sigh of relief, his face revealing a look of immense joy and relief.

With a secure identity and astonishing potential, this young man is destined to become a pillar of the Western King's Mansion.

"Good! Good! Good!!" The Dragon King of the West Sea said "good" three times in a row. He personally stepped forward to help Wu Tian up, his attitude was extremely warm and friendly. He patted Wu Tian's shoulder and laughed loudly, "My good son-in-law, my son! From this day forward, you will be the seventh-ranked prince in the Dragon Clan's Golden Register."

"Your name is right, your fortune is on your side, and your name is known throughout the world. Come, come back with your father; there are still important matters to discuss with you."

The two left the solemn and majestic Ancestral Dragon Hall and returned to the Western King's Mansion.

On the way, the Dragon King of the West Sea had completely regarded Wu Tian as his closest son and capable assistant, and spoke to him with complete sincerity.

Back in his study at the palace, the Dragon King of the West Sea dismissed his attendants, set up numerous restrictions, and his expression turned solemn.

“My dear son-in-law, now that you are the Crown Prince of my Western Prince’s Mansion, with your name recorded in the Golden Register, you are truly one of us. So I will not beat around the bush.”

The Dragon King of the West Sea looked at Wu Tian and said in a deep voice, "I want to arrange for you to go to the West Sea with Yu Qiong to take charge."

Wu Tian's eyes flickered slightly, but he did not immediately refuse. Instead, he asked, "Your Majesty, what about the Western Sea..."

The Dragon King of the West Sea interrupted him directly, "You still call me Your Majesty? You and Qiong'er are already engaged, and you are now the Crown Prince of my Western King's Mansion. You should call me Father."

Wu Tian looked at him, remained silent for a moment, and then spoke, "Father."

Upon hearing this, the Dragon King of the West Sea was overjoyed and couldn't help but laugh loudly, "That's more like it! From now on, we're family."

After laughing, he sighed, "My dear son-in-law, the position of Dragon King of the East Sea is currently vacant. I, the Northern King's Mansion, and the Southern King's Mansion are all qualified to compete for this position."

“My foundation is in the Western Sea, but now the Eastern Sea is turbulent and unpredictable. I must stay here to manage things and cannot leave easily.”

He paused, his tone grave: "But things have been quite turbulent in the Western Sea lately. If a major upheaval occurs and our foundation is damaged, then my chance to seize the throne of the Dragon King of the Eastern Sea will be completely lost."

"Now that you are engaged to Yuqiong and have been recorded in the Golden Book, it is perfectly legitimate. You have both strength and potential, making you the only candidate to represent our Western Sea lineage, guard the rear, and stabilize the overall situation."

"I intend to send you and Yuqiong to the Western Sea to safeguard my foundation and deter villains."

Wu Tian pondered, "May I ask, Father, what is the current situation in the Western Sea?"

The Dragon King of the West Sea explained in detail: "The West Sea is located in the far west, bordering the territory of the Demon God Sect in the northwest."

“That sea area has been a mixed bag of people since ancient times, with wandering immortals, demons, unorthodox practitioners, fugitive evil cultivators... all sorts of people gathered there, making it extremely chaotic.”

"Although my dragon clan has been working for many years and has established a water palace, it is still difficult to completely control the entire sea."

"On the continent near the Western Sea, there stands the behemoth Kunlun Dao Lineage, and the Buddhist forces have infiltrated the Western Kunlun. In addition, there is the Demon God Dao... all forces are extending their tentacles into the Western Sea, openly and secretly checking and balancing each other, preventing my dragon clan from becoming the only dominant force."

"Therefore, in the Western Sea today, besides the Divine Dragon Palace established by my Western King's Mansion, there are also three major forces: Yaochi Wonderland, Little Western Heaven, and Ten Absolute Islands."

When these three forces were mentioned, the Dragon King of the West Sea looked very ugly. "The Jade Pool Wonderland is said to be inherited from the ancient goddess west Wangmu and is supported by the Kunlun Dao lineage. Its direct descendants are all female immortals."

"As long as one can break through to the realm of Loose Immortal, one will be called a Fairy of Yaochi. Currently, there are seven female immortals in Yaochi, who are extremely famous in the Western Sea and are known as the Seven Fairy Maidens of Yaochi."

"Among the Seven Fairy Maidens of Yaochi, at least two are at the level of immortals, with impeccable lineage in the Taoist sect. Their strength and background are unfathomable, and we dragons are usually unwilling to provoke them."

"As for Little Western Heaven, it was created by a great demon saint who called himself Yellow-Eyebrow Buddha. He was skilled in the Sumeru supernatural power and possessed a powerful treasure, the Human Race Bag. He stirred up trouble in the Western Sea and was almost unstoppable."

When the Dragon King of the West Sea mentioned this Yellow-Eyebrowed Buddha, he gritted his teeth and said, "Even many of my dragons have been captured by that Yellow-Eyebrowed Buddha. When I went to confront him, I suffered a loss in secret."

"This person is clearly related to Buddhism, but Buddhism does not acknowledge it, allowing that Yellow-Eyebrowed Buddha to commit heinous crimes and all kinds of killings. It's like a prostitute trying to have a virtuous reputation."

Wu Tian could tell that the West Sea Dragon King felt more awe towards Yaochi, but he harbored deep hatred for the Yellow-Eyebrowed Buddha of Little Western Paradise.

He didn't interrupt, but listened quietly. The situation in the Western Sea was more complicated than he had imagined. All sorts of immortals and experts were cultivating overseas, making it far more powerful than the Southern Frontier and the South China Sea.

After calming himself down, the Dragon King of the West Sea continued, "As for the Ten Absolute Islands, they were established by ten demon gods of the Northwest Demon God Path. The weakest of those ten demon gods could fight against a true immortal."

"What's even more terrifying is that they have set up an unparalleled killing formation on the Ten Absolute Islands, connecting the evil energy in the sky with that in the sea. Once they fall, the entire seabed of the West Sea will be torn apart, unleashing an unprecedented tsunami that will directly submerge the entire Northwest."

"At that time, countless lives will be lost, and who knows how much bloodshed will occur."

"Therefore, the wandering immortals and demons who cultivate in the Western Sea are terrified of the ten demon gods of the Ten Absolute Islands. They dare not approach them unless necessary."

"Besides Yaochi, Little Western Paradise and Ten Absolute Islands, there are countless other islands and forces scattered like stars in the sky. It is no exaggeration to say that they are a mixed bag."

Upon hearing this, Wu Tian finally couldn't help but ask, "Father, why does the Western Sea have so many gods and demons, while the South Sea seems calm and peaceful?"

Upon hearing this, the Dragon King of the West Sea couldn't help but glance at him and burst into laughter, saying, "It seems my son-in-law is indeed focused on his cultivation and is not very knowledgeable about the affairs of the outside world!"

He laughed and said, "The reason why the South China Sea is so peaceful is naturally because this place is the sacred site of a great god."

Wu Tianfu suddenly realized and subconsciously said, "Could it be that Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara?"

The Dragon King of the West Sea nodded and said, "That's right. When the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara of Buddhism established his temple in the South China Sea, the name of the Tide Sound Cave was known throughout the world."

"This Bodhisattva's methods are extremely ruthless. When she established her temple in the South China Sea, she killed so many that rivers of blood flowed. Countless gods and demons died at her hands." "She is a true god of slaughter. Her bloodlust is unprecedented in history. She has slaughtered almost all living beings in the South China Sea."

"It can be said that the peace in the South China Sea today is all thanks to this Bodhisattva. Anyone who dares to set foot in the South China Sea without her permission will be dealt with ruthlessly by her, regardless of their identity or background."

"That's why we have peace in the South China Sea today."

Upon hearing this, Wu Tian understood immediately and murmured, "So, when the Third Prince Moang went to the South China Sea to establish the Dragon Palace, and when the Dragon King of the East Sea was able to land from the South China Sea and flood an entire prefecture, it was all with the tacit approval of that Bodhisattva?"

The Dragon King of the West Sea said, "That's true. Without that Bodhisattva's permission, who would dare to stir up trouble in the South Sea? Wouldn't that be courting death?"

Wu Tian remained silent. Only now did he realize that every move of the Dragon Clan was related to Buddhism and the Bodhisattva Guanyin.

In fact, it wasn't just Buddhism and Guanyin; the Heavenly Court's Water Department, Thunder Department, and Fire Department were all involved in the matter of the East Sea Dragon King, though he was unaware of it.

The Dragon King of the West Sea was naturally unaware of Wu Tian's thoughts. He said with some worry, "In recent years, the Taoist and Buddhist sects have joined forces to launch a major attack on the Northwest Demon God Sect."

"Initially, the fighting was concentrated on land, while the Western Sea was relatively calm."

"But as the war intensified, the crazed ancient demon gods of the Northwest Demon God Path began to resort to any means necessary. They not only forcibly plundered from the Western Sea, but also drove those unorthodox sects and demons to join the battlefield as cannon fodder."

"There are also many demon lords like those on the Ten Absolute Islands who have secretly laid out vicious arrays deep in the Western Sea, attempting to detonate them at a critical moment, unleashing a world-destroying tsunami that will flood the continent and perish together with the Buddhist and Taoist sects."

The Dragon King of the West Sea said with a gloomy face: "The Dragon Palace that my Western King's Mansion established in the West Sea has been shrinking its defenses for the past few years to avoid being drawn into this monstrous calamity of Buddhism, Taoism and Demonism."

"But the tree may wish to remain still, but the wind will not cease. The more we back down, the more those demons and monsters driven to desperation by the Demon God Path, as well as various forces that want to take advantage of the chaos and test the strength of the Dragon Clan, will become restless."

"The situation in the West China Sea is already turbulent and could erupt at any moment."

"I have now left the Divine Dragon Palace and returned to the East Sea to compete for the throne. Although it has not been long, the Divine Dragon Palace is already beset by internal and external troubles."

He looked at Wu Tian with burning eyes: "My dear son-in-law, your primary task on your journey to the Western Sea is to safeguard the foundation of the Divine Dragon Palace, stabilize the overall situation in the Western Sea, and prevent any chaos from arising in my rear."

"Remember this: never get involved in the war in the Northwest. It's a raging vortex that you should avoid at all costs."

"We only need to keep a close eye on the battlefield and send important information back to the East Sea in a timely manner. But if there are any fools who dare to offend the majesty of my Dragon Palace, or try to stir up trouble in the West Sea and endanger the foundation of my Dragon Clan, then we need not be polite and will suppress them with thunderous means."

"If there is a formidable enemy, I will personally take action to support you."

"My dear son-in-law, what do you think?"

After listening, Wu Tian quickly made a mental calculation.

The war between the Northwest Demon Gods and the Dao is the biggest upheaval in the Three Realms, concerning the westward expansion of Buddhism and the Daoist scheme to separate Heaven and Man.

Being able to observe this great battle up close, and even have the opportunity to exert influence in the Western Sea, would be of great benefit to him in grasping the overall situation of the Three Realms and planning his own path.

Moreover, the West Sea is far from the power center of the East Sea, with vast open skies and seas, offering greater freedom and making it easier for him to act covertly.

Therefore, after a moment's thought, he made a decision.

“Father’s considerations are comprehensive and far-sighted.” Wu Tian cupped his hands, his expression solemn. “The Western Sea is not only related to Father’s great cause, but also the foundation of my Western King’s Mansion. As the Crown Prince, Wu Tian has an inescapable responsibility.”

"I am willing to go to the Western Sea with Yuqiong and do my best to stabilize the rear and share my father's burdens!"

"Excellent! Excellent! To have such a worthy son-in-law is truly a blessing from heaven!" The Dragon King of the West Sea was overjoyed and patted Wu Tian's shoulder vigorously. "Don't worry, I will never mistreat you. This time, all personnel, supplies, and authority will be provided to you at the highest level for your trip to the West Sea."

"The Western Treasury is at your disposal; feel free to use it as you see fit."

The two then discussed the matter in detail for a long time.

The Dragon King of the West Sea informed him of every detail, including the distribution of various forces in the West Sea, the powerful figures to be wary of, the factional relationships within the Dragon Palace, the secret communication methods with the East Sea, and several important resource points and secret realms in the West Sea.

In the following days, the West Sea Dragon King's rewards and favors for Wu Tian reached their peak.

Rare and precious natural treasures, powerful magical artifacts and divine weapons, and mountains of cultivation resources were continuously sent into Wu Tian's palace.

Furthermore, a group of beautiful concubines and maids with exceptional looks, figures, and temperament, who were skilled in cultivation and each had their own specialties, were carefully selected to fill his inner court and serve him in his daily life.

Ten days later, everything was ready.

The Dragon King of the West Sea held a grand send-off ceremony outside the Dragon Palace of the East Sea. Three thousand elite sailors, gleaming in armor and exuding a fierce aura, stood in neat formations, banners waving, while shrimp soldiers and crab generals beat war drums and blew horns, their voices echoing across the sea.

Wu Tian changed into a more luxurious and majestic crown prince's robe, embroidered with a golden dragon emerging from the sea. His long, white hair was partially tied up with a purple-gold crown, while the rest was loose. He held a Ruyi Jingu Bang (a magical staff), and walked with the stride of a dragon and the gait of a tiger. His dignified demeanor exuded an awe-inspiring and unassailable majesty and domineering aura.

Princess Moyuqiong also accompanied her in full regalia.

Her long, azure hair was styled into a magnificent cloud-like bun. She wore a brocade palace dress and a moon-scented silk cloak. Her face was exquisitely beautiful, but her original aloof temperament was now tinged with a touch of shyness.

After all, this time she was going to the Western Sea Dragon Palace with Wu Tian to take charge of the overall situation there, and the two of them would be spending a long time together.

She glanced almost imperceptibly at the dashing man beside her, her cheeks flushing, as if lost in thought.

She and Wu Tian stood side by side, truly a perfect couple, like a divine pair stepping out of a painting, drawing admiration and envy from countless aquatic creatures.

Without making a sound, Wu Tian took the jade-like hand of the dragon girl beside him. He felt that her hand was warm and smooth, like soft jade, and there was a faint fragrance in the air, which made his heart flutter.

I must say, my fiancée is truly a beauty of unparalleled grace.

Once I'm out of my father-in-law's sight, I can find an opportunity to win her over.

Anyway, she's my fiancée, so it's perfectly legitimate.

He wouldn't just look and not eat. (End of Chapter)
