Houtu is infatuated with me, so I made her lean against the wall.

The primordial world was still in its infancy, and all kinds of spiritual roots and treasures either already had owners or were still in the process of being formed.

Therefore, Qin Ming was very satisfied with obtaining this innate five elements divine essence fruit tree and set off on his journey again.

Heading east, they killed ferocious beasts and collected some spiritual herbs and roots along the way, storing them in the space of the Thirteenth Grade Pure World White Lotus.

After an unknown amount of time, when Qin Ming appeared on the boundless sea, a look of excitement appeared in his eyes.

He came here in search of a cave dwelling.

After all, having a top-tier cave dwelling is indispensable if one wants to establish a foothold in the prehistoric world.

On the vast and desolate land, there are also many top-tier cave dwellings.

With Qin Ming's current strength, seizing the cave is easy, but severing the karmic ties is not.

Therefore, Qin Ming had no choice but to try his luck in the East China Sea.

Thinking of this, Qin Ming did not hesitate and took a step forward, his figure appearing on the boundless East Sea.

Deep in the East China Sea, a palace stands.

This is the location of the Dragon Palace.

Behind the Dragon Palace lies a bottomless abyss, known as the Dragon Ruins, the place where powerful dragons like the Ancestral Dragon secluded themselves for cultivation.

"Brother, a powerful being has trespassed into our dragon clan's territory. Should we drive him away?"

Zhulong looked at Zulong and asked.

"Who?"

Upon hearing this, the First Emperor slowly opened his eyes.

"The Pure World Taoist who has been making headlines recently."

"By the way, he was also the one who survived the Nine-Nine Heavenly Punishment Divine Light Tribulation at Buzhou Mountain last time."

Zhulong revealed Qin Ming's identity and background in detail.

Last time, the commotion Qin Ming caused when he transformed into human form quickly spread throughout the prehistoric world.

This was not only because Qin Ming was undergoing the Nine-Nine Heavenly Punishment Divine Light Tribulation, but also because after Qin Ming took human form, he actually defeated the veteran prehistoric powerhouse Shen Ni.

Who is Shen Ni?

That was the king of the ferocious beasts that were the protagonists of the Great Calamity.

Wielding the God-Slaying Spear, a supreme weapon of slaughter, he made all the powerful beings of the primordial world unable to raise their heads.

Yet this formidable man was utterly defeated by Qin Ming.

Recently, it has gained merit from the Heavenly Dao by killing ferocious beasts and purifying their evil energy, thus giving back to heaven and earth. This has led to many powerful figures from the primordial world emerging from their mountains to kill the ferocious beasts, causing a sharp decline in their power.

What is this person planning to do now that he has come to the East Sea?

Upon hearing this, the First Emperor's expression hardened.

He has been in seclusion recently, studying and refining the Ten Thousand Dragons Overturning the Sea Formation. He hopes to lead the dragon race in a bloody battle against the ferocious beast race, and completely control the four seas under the dragon race's control, thereby increasing the dragon race's fortune.

Therefore, Zu Long did not pay much attention to the recent commotion caused by Qin Ming.

Now, after hearing Zhulong's account, Zulong also developed feelings for Qin Ming.

Thinking of this, Zu Long smiled faintly and said, "Since such distinguished guests have arrived, how can we, as the hosts of the East Sea, not extend the fullest hospitality?"

"Let's go, follow me to greet this fellow Daoist Jing Shi!"

"good!"

Upon hearing this, Zhulong responded and summoned the Ancestral Dragon Guards to accompany the Ancestral Dragon to welcome Qin Ming.

On the other side, Qin Ming wandered on the East China Sea, looking at the boundless East China Sea, and his mind couldn't help but feel much more open.

Just as Qin Ming was flying and enjoying the scenery of the East China Sea, the sea suddenly churned.

Upon seeing this, Qin Ming's figure hovered in the sky, and his internal magical power slowly circulated.

"Sing!!!"

A dragon's roar that resounded through the heavens and the earth, a golden light flashed, and a nine-clawed golden dragon that blotted out the sky, accompanied by a giant dragon with eight claws, a human face and a dragon body, and a dense array of five-clawed golden dragons, white dragons, black dragons and other dragons, arrived opposite Qin Ming.

The leading nine-clawed golden dragon swayed and transformed into a middle-aged man with a majestic face, long dragon horns, and wearing a golden robe.

This dragon is none other than the Ancestral Dragon.

Seeing Qin Ming's wary expression, Zu Long immediately smiled and bowed, saying, "Fellow Daoist Jing Shi, please do not be wary!"

"I am the Ancestral Dragon, the progenitor of the Dragon Clan!"

"Having heard that Fellow Daoist Jingshi has traveled to the East Sea, how can I, as the lord of the East Sea, not extend the proper hospitality?"

"If I have disturbed you, please forgive me!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming's internal energy gradually calmed down. After returning the greeting, Qin Ming shook his head and said, "Fellow Daoist Zulong is too kind. It was my fault that I did not visit you during my travels here."

"Brother, Fellow Daoist Jingshi, please don't be so reluctant!"

"Since Fellow Daoist Jingshi is touring the East Sea today, why don't you come with my elder brother and me to the Dragon Palace? We can then have a discussion on the Dao. What do you think, Fellow Daoist Jingshi?"

Upon seeing this, Zhulong immediately interrupted their pleasantries and extended his own invitation.

"this........"

"Fellow Daoist Zulong, Fellow Daoist Zhulong, to be honest, I haven't been in human form for long and don't yet have a suitable residence!"

"My journey through the East Sea is also in search of a suitable cave dwelling!"

"Therefore, could we postpone our discussion of the Way?"

"Once I have found a suitable cave dwelling, I will personally visit the Dragon Palace. What do you two think?"

After hesitating for a moment, Qin Ming politely declined.

Just kidding, he's only just taken human form.

First, he fought against Shen Ni, and then went to Yujing Mountain to discuss the Dao with Yang Mei, Hongjun and others for tens of thousands of years.

Who has the mind to continue discussing philosophy now?

"I see!"

"Fellow Daoist, the East Sea is boundless, and countless immortal islands exist!"

"Our Dragon Clan rules the East Sea and also controls many immortal islands!"

"If you don't mind, fellow Daoist, how about I grant you a celestial island?"

Zu Long waved his hand generously and said.

"Fellow Daoist Zulong, as the saying goes, one should not accept rewards without merit. I shall find the answer myself!"

Qin Ming shook his head again.

How could he possibly be interested in an ordinary cave dwelling?

He was, after all, a great being who was born earlier than the Three Pure Ones and others.

He has no lack of talent or background, and is also blessed with the cheat code of the system.

If they were to find an ordinary cave dwelling as a place to stay, they would be wasting their noodles for nothing.

He didn't believe that the First Emperor would give him a top-tier blessed land.

Moreover, the Dragon Clan is destined to be the next rulers of the Great Tribulation.

Don't be fooled by how polite Zulong and Zhulong are to him.

In reality, however, the two were extremely arrogant.

There was a sense of superiority in his words.

Therefore, Qin Ming would be even less likely to accept their gifts.

"Fellow Daoist Jingshi, you're really not giving your elder brother enough credit..."

Zhulong was displeased to see Qin Ming reject Zulong's kindness once again.

However, before Zhulong could finish speaking, Zulong scolded, "Second brother, do not be rude!"

"Fellow Daoist Jingshi, I apologize. My second brother was impetuous. Please forgive him if there was anything inappropriate!"

Zu Long bowed respectfully, looking at Qin Ming with a face full of apology.

"It's alright, I also had my faults!"

"However, I am also preoccupied with finding a place to practice my Dao, which is why I have repeatedly declined Fellow Daoist Zulong's kind offer!"

"I guarantee that once a suitable place for my practice is found, I will personally visit it!"

"At that time, I hope Fellow Daoist Zulong will not turn you away!"

Qin Ming returned the greeting with a bow, speaking neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Upon hearing this, Zu Long responded and did not try to persuade him to stay any longer.

Seeing this, Qin Ming did not hesitate and rode the Thirteenth Grade Pure World White Lotus rapidly into the distance.

Watching Qin Ming's departing figure, Zhulong said indignantly, "Brother, why were you so polite to him?"

"You don't understand. The Pure World Daoist has a deep foundation, continuous fortune, and is also blessed with merit. If we rashly attack him, it's fine if we kill him, but if he escapes, my Dragon Clan may be in big trouble."

"Now is a critical moment. The most urgent task is to cleanse the four seas of ferocious beasts, unify the four seas, and then unite with the Qilin clan, the Phoenix clan, and the great powers of the primordial world to drive out the ferocious beasts."

"If we offend this powerful being, it will be extremely disadvantageous to our dragon race."

"Moreover, the Pure World Daoist rides on a thirteen-petal Pure World White Lotus and possesses a primordial treasure that is suspected to be the Chaos Bell. As a primordial being, he is invincible. Even if you and I join forces, it will be difficult to kill him. Rather than that, it would be better to befriend him."

"Anyway, he's searching for a cave in the East Sea; they'll be neighbors in the future!"

"In this way, it will be easier for us to recruit him when we grow stronger in the future."

Zu Long shook his head and said calmly.
