Primordial Era: I, the auspicious beast Pixiu, am the darling of the Great Dao.

Upon closer inspection, Tianlu almost didn't recognize him; it really was that arrogant and domineering Dongwanggong.

However, what surprised Tianlu the most was the cultivation level of the Eastern King Duke.

Wasn't this guy's cultivation already at the mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm?

How come it's already at the early stages of the Great Luo Dynasty?

The Great Luo Golden Immortal is an existence that transcends the river of fate; once their cultivation breaks through, it is extremely difficult for them to fall back down.

What terrible things happened to the Eastern King that led to such a tragic end?

With a little calculation, Tianlu understood the reason.

The reason why the Eastern King Duke suffered such a miserable fate was entirely due to the heavenly lightning.

During this period, all sorts of incredible information about Tianlu circulated throughout the primordial world.

After reflecting on his own experiences, Dong Wanggong finally realized the truth.

He knew that the reason he was constantly being targeted by the Heavenly Dao was not because of any jealousy of talent, but because he had offended Tianlu in front of Zixiao Palace.

Tianlu is the darling of the Great Dao, the son of the Great Dao, and is protected by the Heavenly Dao.

Any being that harbors malice towards Tianlu will suffer from demonic possession, unstable fortune, and may even be punished by the Heavenly Dao.

The Eastern King Duke had suffered divine retribution and, with nowhere else to turn, could only drag his heavily injured body to the outside of this Chaos Immortal Island, kneeling down to beg for Tianlu's forgiveness.

Looking at the pitiful Dongwanggong outside the island, Tianlu thought for a moment and realized that the guy was indeed quite miserable.

The first wisp of pure Yang energy of the Primordial Era, which should have been a spirited and powerful being, has now been struck by lightning and turned into this state, with its cultivation level dropping by a small realm.

Although Tianlu is greedy and sometimes domineering, he is not the kind of greedy and unforgiving Pixiu.

Moreover, given the current miserable state of the Eastern King, it's unlikely that much profit can be extracted from him.

Then Tianlu opened his mouth, and his voice resounded far beyond the Chaos Immortal Island.

"Fellow Daoist Dongwanggong, please leave. I have already absolved myself of past transgressions."

Upon hearing this, the Eastern King, who was kneeling in worship outside the island, trembled all over and hurriedly kowtowed in gratitude from the clouds above.

"Thank you for your forgiveness, Son of the Great Dao!"

Having said that, he got up to leave.

But as he was leaving, he kept turning back, not to look at the Chaos Immortal Island, but to look at the sky above him.

His eyes were fixed on the void above, as if afraid that another bolt of purple lightning would suddenly strike down.

After flying tens of thousands of miles away, no more tribulation clouds gathered in the sky, and no more divine lightning fell.

The Eastern King finally breathed a sigh of relief, his face beaming with joy.

Although he lost face, he at least survived.

As long as I don't get struck by lightning again, that's great!

Tianlu was quite surprised to see Dongwanggong looking like a frightened bird on the island.

Are you that scared?

If the Eastern King knew what Tianlu was thinking at this moment, he would definitely break down and cry on the spot.

Was that a regular lightning strike?

Ever since he offended Tianlu, his life has become an endless nightmare.

While in seclusion for cultivation, having just completed one cycle of energy circulation, he was struck by lightning.

While searching for an opportunity, he finally found a spiritual herb, but before he could pick it, he was struck by lightning.

At the crucial moment when refining the spiritual treasure, a bolt of lightning struck.

They strike you with lightning whether it's a good thing or not, they don't care about any reason at all!

What devastated him most was that when Hongjun Daozu was giving his third sermon, he was happily preparing to go to Zixiao Palace to listen to the sermon, but the Heavenly Dao directly sent down countless divine lightning bolts, which made him run away with his head in his hands.

Not only that, the Heavenly Dao also attracted several powerful chaotic beasts, all to block his path to the Purple Cloud Palace.

As it turns out, Heaven's will prevailed.

Not only did Dongwanggong miss his third sermon and the opportunity at the Treasure Sharing Cliff, but he also almost lost his life to a ferocious beast.

How could he not be afraid?

Tianlu naturally couldn't understand the endless grievances and bitterness in Dongwanggong's heart. He shook his head and ignored the unlucky fellow.

He turned around and whispered towards the depths of the hall.

"Yang Hui!"

In the side hall, Yang Hui, who was quietly comprehending the laws of time, heard the call and sighed helplessly before rushing to the main hall where Tianlu was.

In no time, she arrived in front of Tianlu and bowed slightly.

"My lord, is there anything I can help you with?"

Tianlu lay on the cloud bed, lazily stretched, and thought for a moment before speaking.

"Little girl, come with me to Phoenix Perch Mountain to see Fellow Daoist Nuwa."

Upon hearing this, Yang Hui, perhaps because he had spent so much time with Tianlu and had become much bolder, actually started to complain.

"My lord, don't you need to cultivate?"

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa is probably in seclusion right now, consolidating her cultivation. It would be inappropriate for you to disturb her like this."

Upon hearing this, Tianlu was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled, stretched out his golden claw, and pointed to the side of the main hall.

There, lying on the ground was a white and blue Pixiu clone.

This was the human-flower clone that Tianlu created while he was in seclusion on Chaos Immortal Island.

"Cultivation? Of course I don't need to cultivate myself."

"This person is a Pixiu, who can help me cultivate the laws of the Great Dao, and then continuously feed back the insights to my true self."

Having said that, Tianlu had a thought, and a mysterious fluctuation of the Great Dao Law immediately surged from the white and blue Pixiu clone.

A moment later, this surge of energy flowed into Tianlu's body like a hundred rivers converging into the sea.

Tianlu's aura suddenly surged, and he naturally broke through to the late stage of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm.

A powerful pressure flashed through the hall, causing ripples to spread through the surrounding space.

Yang Hui stood to the side, completely dumbfounded.

The three flower clones that were created could actually cultivate in place of the original body, and could even feed back the cultivation level to the original body, allowing the original body to directly break through its realm?

This completely overturned Yang Hui's understanding of cultivation.

A surge of heat welled up in her heart, and she quickly channeled her magic power. Three flowers appeared above her head, summoning the earth flower clone she had created.

Yang Hui looked at his Earth Flower clone with anticipation and asked.

"Could you help me cultivate?"

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the hall instantly became somewhat strange.

A look of extreme astonishment flashed across Yang Hui's previously calm eyes.

She was stunned for a moment, looking at her own self as if she were a fool.

Am I dreaming?!

The method of severing the three flowers, passed down by Dao Ancestor Hongjun, was originally intended to entrust one's obsessions and assist the original being in comprehending the laws.

Although these three flower clones possess magical power, they lack the ability to independently cultivate the laws of the Great Dao and nourish their original self.

The Earth Flower clone stiffly shook its head, then transformed into a stream of light and disappeared back into the auspicious clouds.

The expectation in Yang Hui's eyes instantly turned into endless disappointment.

She turned to look at Tianlu on the cloud bed and sighed helplessly.

"My lord, you see, the clones of the Three Flowers Technique cannot help our true selves cultivate."
