The visitor was none other than Shangqing Tongtian.

The Tongtian Sect Leader stared at Chen Yu with an approving expression, then turned his gaze to Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals.

"Disciple Chen Yu, now that you have arrived in the East Sea, you will soon return to Jin'ao Island with your master."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yu immediately agreed, stepped aside, and stood at attention, awaiting further instructions.

The Master of the Heavenly Sect swept his gaze over the four people in front of him, his expression slightly solemn, as if he were deducing the secrets of heaven, and he already had a plan in mind.

Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals also bowed their heads respectfully, not daring to look up, but their hearts were quietly stirred.

They secretly speculated about the Taoist's identity—his disciple had killed two Golden Immortal-level evil dragons with a single move, so his master must be an extremely powerful figure in the prehistoric world.

The four of them originally came to seek a famous teacher. They had heard that the Tongtian Sect Leader had established a Taoist temple on Jin'ao Island in the East China Sea. He was a saint of the Jie Sect with boundless magical power, so they came to seek the Tao and hoped to enter his school.

If one finds a sage as a teacher, the path of cultivation will naturally be unobstructed, and the attainment of the Great Dao will be within reach.

The Tongtian Sect Leader had previously deduced that these four people were destined to be his disciples and would face calamity, so he specially descended from Biyou Palace to this place.

Unexpectedly, that calamity had been quietly averted by his disciple, Chen Yu.

He gave Chen Yu a meaningful look—although this person had always shown that he was an Earth Immortal, his combat strength was comparable to that of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

The Tongtian Sect Leader simply assumed that he was deliberately concealing his cultivation level and unwilling to reveal his true strength, and did not suspect anything further.

After a moment, he turned his gaze back to Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals, and slowly spoke:

"I am the Tongtian Sect Master, founder of the Jie Sect, with my dojo located on Jin'ao Island in the East Sea. You four siblings are destined to be my disciples."

Upon hearing the sound, the four immediately knelt down, kowtowed, and bowed in respect, their voices firm and resolute.

"Zhao Gongming, Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao wish to become disciples of the Sage Tongtian and humbly request that he accept them as his students!"

Chen Yu witnessed this scene from the side, his heart trembled slightly, and he felt a little surprised.

In the past, when he was in Kunlun Mountain, he received a telepathic message through the power of the great formation. He only bowed once to be considered a disciple, and did not perform this grand ceremony.

Later, when he met the leader of the sect, he always treated him with Taoist courtesy and never knelt down.

Now these four people bowed down and became his disciples without hesitation, leaving him speechless and feeling quite uneasy.

Upon seeing this, the Master of the Heavens showed a satisfied expression.

"Rise. Now that you have joined my Jie Sect, you need not be bound by worldly etiquette. I do not care about these formalities; you only need to focus on cultivating the Dao."

"Our Jie Sect emphasizes spontaneity and freedom, without being bound by rules or imposing harsh regulations."

The four men stood up and bowed again.

"Yes, teacher, we will keep your teachings in mind."

After the ceremony, the four men turned to Chen Yu, their expressions respectful, and bowed in unison.

"Zhao Gongming, Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao greet their senior brother."

Chen Yu quickly returned the greeting, speaking in a calm tone.

"Fellow disciples, there's no need to be so polite."

The Tongtian Sect Leader glanced at the five people, then his divine sense sank into the depths of the East Sea. With a wave of his hand, his supernatural powers manifested, and the corpses of two evil dragons rose into the air from the seabed.

"These two dragons dared to harm my disciple; they died rather easily."

"Now that you have entered my tutelage, how can I, your master, not bestow upon you anything?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a ball of ghostly flame suddenly ignited in the void, incinerating the corpse.

Immediately afterwards, the cult leader made a hand seal to activate the magic, and a ray of spiritual light entered the fire. In an instant, a strange weapon took shape.

The Tongtian Sect Leader gazed at the object, nodded slightly, and was quite satisfied.

"Zhao Gongming, Sanxiao, this is a supreme treasure I forged from the true form of the evil dragon, named 'Golden Dragon Scissors'."

"Once this treasure is used, even a Great Luo Golden Immortal will find it difficult to escape the danger of having their body severed. Its power is extraordinary. I bestow it upon you today, hoping that you will make good use of it in the future."

Upon hearing this, the four men were overjoyed and knelt down to express their gratitude.

"Thank you, Teacher, for this wonderful gift!"

As the eldest brother, Zhao Gongming stepped forward, took the Golden Dragon Scissors, and handed them to Yunxiao, instructing him to keep them safe.

Chen Yu stood to the side, silently observing the whole process, a slight twitch appearing at the corner of his mouth.

He almost blurted out, "Teacher, I killed those two dragons! You didn't even ask them before handing over the credit? Is that really appropriate?"

However, he ultimately dared not speak out and could only sigh silently in his heart.

The Tongtian Sect Leader's gaze fell lightly on Chen Yu, and after a moment he sighed softly and shook his head slightly.

"Disciple Chen Yu, your cultivation level is now unmatched in the primordial world, so I will not bestow any magical treasures upon you for the time being. Once you comprehend the Dao you seek, I will naturally grant you spiritual treasures for protection."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yu's expression turned solemn, and he bowed respectfully.

"Yes, teacher."

Upon hearing this, the Tongtian Sect Leader nodded slowly with an approving expression. Then, his gaze swept over the other four people, his voice steady and resonant.

"Follow me back to Jin'ao Island."

Before he finished speaking, a celestial cloud appeared from the void. He sat upon it, the cloud swirling and slowly drifting towards the depths of the East Sea.

Seeing this, Chen Yu, Zhao Gongming, Sanxiao and the others followed closely behind, stepping on the sea breeze to chase after that figure.

The Tongtian Sect Leader did not use his supernatural powers to directly lead everyone back to the island, but deliberately traveled slowly, just to take in the vast scenery of the East China Sea.

Even sages, though transcending the mundane, are not devoid of emotions. Unless one has eradicated all seven emotions and six desires, one still has the capacity to appreciate the scenery.

The six people traveled across the blue waves, heading towards Jin'ao Island.

Along the way, Chen Yu looked around, his eyes filled with wonder.

This was his first time venturing deep into the heart of the East China Sea.

The islands are scattered like stars, each with a different shape, some resembling giant beasts lying in the water, others like immortal swords pointing to the sky, dazzling the eyes and making one stop and gaze.

In contrast, Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals were all born in the East Sea and were already familiar with this matter. The four of them stood respectfully behind their master, without any sign of distraction.

A sage's journey should be filled with extraordinary phenomena and auspicious signs, but the Tongtian Sect Leader concealed his majesty, leaving only a gentle breeze as his companion.

The journey was smooth and peaceful, with no ferocious beasts blocking the way or demons lurking, and they arrived safely at the sea off Jin'ao Island.

Ahead, a giant island stretches across the sea, vast and boundless, with a magnificent presence.

This is the largest island Chen Yu has ever seen throughout the vast wilderness.

Auspicious clouds swirl around the island, the earth's spiritual energy rises like mist, innate springs flow gently, exotic flowers bloom, and rare herbs sway.

Mythical beasts leap through the forest, and celestial mushrooms transform and frolic, creating a scene resembling a blessed land.

More than a hundred disciples sat cross-legged to cultivate, some discussing the Dao in twos or threes, others contemplating it alone, and the sound of the Great Dao could be heard everywhere.

The Tongtian Sect Leader stepped into the island's barrier, followed closely by Chen Yu and the others, entering the Golden Turtle Island.

After standing still, he turned to face the five people, his tone calm yet authoritative.

"This is the place where I established my Daoist practice. I have set up Biyou Palace on Jin'ao Island and reside here daily. If you have any questions or are confused about the Great Dao, you may come to the palace to find me."

The five people bowed in unison, responding respectfully.

"Yes, teacher, I will remember."

The Tongtian Sect Leader nodded slightly, and in the next instant, his figure faded away, disappearing without a trace.

The five people looked up, but there was no one there.

They knew in their hearts that their master had returned to Biyou Palace.

Zhao Gongming exchanged glances with Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao, then turned to Chen Yu and asked:

"Senior Brother Chen Yu, do you have any important matters to attend to next?"
