On a floating island, there was an altar covered in flowers.
Ye Ling and Ji Ning lay on the flowers, their injuries completely gone, their breaths stabilizing.
Outside the floral altar, a group of young boys and girls surrounded them, chattering and discussing Ye Ling and Ji Ning.
"Our Tianyun Island has long been cut off from the immortal path, how did these two manage to ascend?"
"Is this what people from the outside world look like... I'm so envious, unlike us... we never grow up."
"I heard from the elders that these two are distinguished guests... what is their identity?"
"Hush! Be quiet, the elder is here!"
As the crowd discussed, they suddenly fell silent.
The crowd parted to both sides, and a young girl in a white robe, guided by a pair of golden boy and jade girl, walked to the altar.
"Greetings, Elder!"
The young boys and girls on both sides knelt down, showing extreme respect to the girl.
The girl walked onto the floral altar, and a large number of petals rose from the altar, lifting Ye Ling and Ji Ning together.
Then, the altar lit up with white light, and an extremely vast life energy surged out from the altar, pouring into Ye Ling and Ji Ning.
Ye Ling's soul, damaged by the poison of the Ten Thousand Poison Beast, and Ji Ning's soul, fragmented by Zhou Wen's torment, were all restored to their peak at this moment.
Ye Ling and Ji Ning slowly regained consciousness and opened their eyes.
"What is this..."
Ye Ling recovered and found himself lying under the bright sun, surrounded by petals. He was stunned.
Tian Xing, who woke up on the other side, had the same confusion as Ye Ling.
"I'm not dead?" Ji Ning felt the surging energy within her body and was incredibly shocked.
In that previous situation, she should have been certain to die!
But now, not only was she not dead, but her strength had even increased significantly.
"Where is this place?"
Ji Ning and Ye Ling asked in unison.
"Two distinguished guests, this is Tianyun Island," the girl, known as the elder, said to the awakened Ye Ling and Ji Ning with a clear voice, bowing slightly.
"Tianyun Island? Could it be the legendary Island of Origin?" Ji Ning exclaimed upon hearing the girl's words.
"What? You know this place?" Ye Ling asked curiously, seeing Ji Ning's incredulous expression.
Ji Ning pursed her lips, composed herself, and then explained to Ye Ling: "Tianyun Island was originally a divine island in the Origin Upper Realm. Legend has it that the first supreme experts were born here, and the island contains infinite energy."
"According to legend, only supreme experts could ascend to Tianyun Island through the Immortal Ascension Path. However, the Immortal Ascension Path has been severed for over thirty trillion years, and no one has ascended to Tianyun Island since."
"I always thought Tianyun Island was just a legend, but I never expected this island to actually exist!"
Ji Ning became more and more incredulous as she spoke. She jumped down from the flower cluster and excitedly asked the girl, "Miss, is this really Tianyun Island?"
"That's right."
The girl smiled slightly, "I am the elder here, you can call me A Yun."
Ye Ling also got down from the flower cluster and bowed to A Yun to thank her: "Elder A Yun, I will never forget your life-saving grace."
Seeing Ye Ling thank A Yun, Ji Ning realized she had gotten too excited. She also composed herself and bowed to thank A Yun.
"You are too kind..."
A Yun bowed slightly to Ye Ling again and said, "As the Emperor Ancestor, it is our honor to have you visit Tianyun Island."
"Emperor Ancestor?" Ji Ning was stunned to see A Yun's respectful demeanor towards Ye Ling.
Tianyun Island was a legendary divine island, a place yearned for by countless supreme experts. How could the elder of such a sacred place be so respectful to Ye Ling?
Ji Ning felt her head was about to explode.
The amount of information was overwhelming.
Ye Ling also did not expect A Yun to be so respectful to him and felt a little unaccustomed to it. He asked A Yun with a surprised expression, "You know I am the Emperor Ancestor?"
"Of course, in the myriad worlds, there is only one Emperor Ancestor. How could A Yun not recognize you?" A Yun smiled slightly at Ye Ling, "Lord Emperor Ancestor, we have been waiting for you for a long time."
"On this Tianyun Island, we have something for you."
Hearing A Yun's words, Ji Ning looked at Ye Ling with envy and jealousy.
She could no longer imagine how great a fortune Ye Ling would gain on Tianyun Island!
Ye Ling was also a bit stunned by the sudden gift and didn't react for a moment.
One moment, he was fleeing for his life, almost dying at Zhou Wen's hands. The next moment, he had arrived at the legendary Tianyun Island and was treated as a distinguished guest by the island's inhabitants...
This huge change made him a little uncomfortable.
It was Ji Ning who quickly reacted and urged Ye Ling, "Ye Ling, I brought you to this place, and if I hadn't used my life force to keep you alive, you would have died long ago!"
"If you become successful in the future, you must not forget me!"
After realizing Ye Ling's extraordinary background, Ji Ning's hatred for Ye Ling had completely vanished.
She now only wanted to cling to Ye Ling's coattails and soar to prosperity!
As long as she gained a little fortune on Tianyun Island, she could be completely reborn and wouldn't have to worry about Zhou Wen's revenge when she left.
She could even kill Zhou Wen herself!
Ye Ling, on the other hand, remained quite calm, his state of mind not fluctuating much.
Firstly, he was unaware of the legends of Tianyun Island, nor did he know its status in the Origin Upper Realm. Being treated as a distinguished guest by the island's inhabitants brought him more surprise than excitement.
Secondly, he had always maintained a sense of caution in unfamiliar environments. Although A Yun had saved his life, he was not yet able to fully trust her.
Vaguely, Ye Ling felt a sense of resistance towards this place.
However, A Yun had saved his life, and despite his caution, he could not repay her kindness. He bowed to A Yun and said, "Elder A Yun, please lead the way."
"Please follow me," A Yun smiled and performed a deep bow to Ye Ling, then turned and walked down the floral altar, heading in another direction.
"Ye Ling, hurry up and follow!" Ji Ning urged Ye Ling to keep up.
She was eager to witness the fortunes of Tianyun Island.
Hearing Ji Ning's urging, Ye Ling transmitted a message to Ji Ning, asking, "What kind of place is Tianyun Island? Tell me in detail, I feel something is not right."
"Do you have persecution complex, you brat?" Ji Ning rolled her eyes at Ye Ling. "If they really wanted to harm us, why would they go to such lengths to save us?"
"You're just someone who snuck up from the lower realm, what could they plot against you?"
"It's precisely because I came from the lower realm... My title as Emperor Ancestor also belongs to that lower realm. As the legendary island of the Origin Upper Realm, why is this Tianyun Island so respectful to me?" Ye Ling asked doubtfully.
"I think you're overthinking it," Ji Ning said irritably. "You're not old, but you have so many schemes. No wonder you don't have many girls following you."
"There's no connection between the two," Ye Ling replied via telepathic message, his mouth twitching.
"Alright, alright..." Ji Ning sighed. "Hurry up and follow that elder, I'll give you a detailed introduction on the way about what the legendary..."
"Tian! Yun! Island!"
