"Hmph, I knew you wouldn't believe me!"
Gong Chen seemed to have anticipated this, and suddenly released his aura.
"Huh?"
"True Essence Immortal Realm?"
Sensing the aura emanating from Gong Chen, Lu Zun's face was filled with shock. "Senior Brother, how is it possible that you've reached the True Essence Immortal Realm? Weren't you just at the early stage of Reincarnation Mirror Realm before?"
"How did you advance so quickly..."
As he spoke, he seemed to realize something and exclaimed: "You couldn't have been at Dark Shadow Island?"
"Clever!"
Gong Chen praised him: "Let me tell you the truth. There was a master on Dark Shadow Island. When I was on the brink of death there, I encountered this master. Not only did he save my life, but he also helped me advance straight to the True Essence Immortal Realm!"
At this point,
Gong Chen proudly lifted his head, the image of a white-robed figure appearing in his mind.
"Speaking of that master, he's truly like an immortal who has descended to the mortal realm!"
"Dark Shadow Island may be a prison, a dangerous place in others' eyes."
"But in his eyes, it's merely one of his back gardens!"
"And the reason I was able to leave Dark Shadow Island was all thanks to him!"
Hearing this, father and son Lu Zun were filled with amazement.
"Are there really such powerful people in this world?"
"Would I lie to you?" Gong Chen said solemnly: "Even if you don't believe my words, surely you can't deny the level of my cultivation."
Lu Zun fell silent.
Indeed.
Before going to Dark Shadow Island, Gong Chen was only at the early stage of Reincarnation Mirror Realm.
If what Gong Chen said wasn't true, there would be no way for him to break through to the True Essence Immortal Realm in such a short time.
"So Senior Brother, are you planning to take Chong into Dark Shadow Island?"
Lu Zun couldn't help but ask.
"Well, although the master has opened up the teleportation array and we can come and go as we please, bringing others in is definitely not allowed," Gong Chen said seriously. "Because to become the master's follower, the primary requirement is that you must be a prisoner from Dark Shadow Island."
"Why must it be prisoners?"
Lu Zun couldn't help asking.
"This is where it gets a bit terrifying."
Gong Chen took a deep breath, and under their expectant gazes, he lowered his voice and said word by word: "From what I've observed of the master's actions, he seems to be planning to oppose the Heavenly Immortal Palace, intending to overthrow it and establish a new Heavenly Immortal Palace."
"What? Planning to overthrow the Heavenly Immortal Palace?"
Father and son were shocked.
This information.
It was simply too enormous.
This was something they wouldn't have dared to even imagine before.
However.
They also understood why he only wanted prisoners from Dark Shadow Island.
Because Dark Shadow Island was already the prison of the Heavenly Immortal Palace, and its prisoners were essentially enemies of the Heavenly Immortal Palace.
"But this is such a massive undertaking, if it goes wrong, it could cost us our lives!"
Lu Zun said gravely.
"What's all this talk about losing lives?" Gong Chen sneered. "Do you really think replacing the Heavenly Immortal Palace would be difficult for the master?"
"Heh, if that's what you think, you're greatly mistaken."
"If I'm not wrong, the master is just doing this for entertainment because he's bored."
"Entertainment?"
Father and son Lu Zun were completely puzzled.
Overthrowing the Heavenly Immortal Palace was just entertainment?
"Don't be so skeptical. Replacing the Heavenly Immortal Palace is truly just a trivial matter for the master. He wouldn't even need to lift a finger. The thousand Human Immortals on the island could probably flatten the Heavenly Immortal Palace," Gong Chen said.
"A thousand Human Immortals?"
The father and son were dumbfounded.

lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore."

he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
