Peerless Taoist

As Wang Jiangliu appeared, Lu Yu had already located Penglai in an instant.    

Although Penglai Island had appeared in the world, it was still in a different world from the Heavenly Realm. All living beings could only see a shadow, but they were unable to approach it. It was like an ancient Heavenly Court, something that could only be seen but not touched.    

However, in the eyes of Lu Yu, this kind of concealment was no longer necessary.    

With just a glance, Lu Yu had already located Penglai's location. The huge and majestic immortal island was instantly reflected in front of his eyes.    

Lu Yu found Penglai's location and spread this location to the Qin army.    

Immediately, the Qin army in various places began to gather. Countless people shouted war songs with high morale and excitement. Many generals' eyes were shining brightly, as if a great fortune was in front of them.    

"We want to go with you!" Monkey and Blacky found Lu Yu and wanted to go with him to Penglai.    

Both of them had already cultivated to the Earth Realm. Monkey's talent was even better, and he had already reached the ninth level of the Earth Realm, recovering to the level of the ancient era.    

He was originally a true Buddha in the past, but later on, due to various changes, he lost his cultivation level. Now that he had recovered his strength, he immediately displayed his tyrannical combat strength.    

As for Blacky, his origin was even more mysterious. Back then, he was able to be brothers with many Golden Immortals of the Heavenly Court, and now he had also reached the Earth Realm.    

Ever since he had broken through to the Earth Realm, the black dog's fur had become even brighter, and its entire body had swelled up, making it look like a huge monster. Its strength had increased by several times.    

However, this dead dog still had that wretched temperament on its body, and it could not be changed.    

"If Monkey wants to go, of course I will go. But don't worry, we won't cause you any trouble." The black dog rubbed its hands together, its eyes filled with greed.    

Lu Yu obviously knew what this dead dog was thinking. He kicked its butt. "Stop it."    

This dead dog often caused many Great Qin's military officials to curse because it was too clean.    

If it wasn't for the black dog, it would also have charged into the battlefield and killed the enemy's experts. Lu Yu would have dealt with it a long time ago.    

"I understand the rules. I will only take what belongs to me. With your current strength, can't you tell?"    

The black dog shrank its neck and said in a low voice.    

Lu Yu ignored the dog and looked at Monkey. "True Monarch Purple Cloud should be in Penglai's hands. But you don't need to do anything. I will personally bring her back."    

Back then, when the few of them snuck into the underground of the Buddhist Sect, they happened to see True Monarch Purple Cloud locked in the wall.    

Unfortunately, Lu Yu and the others were too weak back then. They were unable to fight head-on against the Buddhist Sect, so they were unable to save True Monarch Purple Cloud.    

He did not expect to never see this ancient immortal again.    

Monkey shook his head. "This is my grudge, so I will go."    

He tactfully refused Lu Yu's offer, and Lu Yu did not force him. He agreed to go with him.    

The Qin army was gathering, distributing grain, and allocating personnel. All of this needed to be completed. Great Qin had just annexed the Tang Territory, and many places needed time to digest. There were also a large number of troops that needed to be transferred from other places in advance. Thus, they needed time.    

However, Lu Yu could not wait any longer. He wanted to use his thunderous methods to completely eradicate this tumor of the Heavenly Realm.    

On the way to Penglai, there was a sect guarding this road.    

The sect was called the Heavenly Guarding Sect. It had the meaning of protecting the heavens. In reality, it was also a sect supported by Penglai. It was a sect that isolated Penglai from the Heavenly Realm.    

In the eyes of Penglai's forces, Penglai was the Heavenly Court. Only Penglai's people were true immortals.    

The people of the Heavenly Realm were all ants and servants. They had to serve Penglai for generations. If one wanted to step into Penglai's territory, they had to pass the test of the Heavenly Guarding Sect.    

This Heavenly Guarding Sect was originally not eye-catching. It was just a powerful sect in a small place. However, after Penglai appeared, its true appearance was finally revealed to everyone. After annexing three Holy Lands, its scale became unprecedentedly large.    

There were countless experts, and it was a magnificent place.    

Countless people who wanted to enter Penglai all gathered here, hoping to reach the heavens in one step.    

Although Penglai had plundered many people from the Heaven Realm, there were still people who wanted to become a member of Penglai and be above the common people of the Heaven Realm. They wanted to become true people above people.    

Therefore, every morning, there would be a sea of people outside the Heaven Guarding Sect, and countless people would rush over.    

Lu Yu and Monkey arrived at the same time. Monkey and Blacky had already turned into human form. One was a handsome and cold young man, and the other was a black-haired young man.    

Before they even got close, Lu Yu saw the immortal light that appeared in the sky. The immortal light was resplendent, and its aura was like a rainbow. It was as if an ancient immortal sect had descended.    

"Is he trying to imitate a South-Heaven Gate to isolate the immortal and mortal world? It's just a facade."    

Blacky sneered and pointed at the Heaven Guarding Sect. His eyes were filled with contempt and coldness.    

Monkey remained silent the entire time. He seemed to be deep in thought, and his expression was extremely gloomy.    

On the long stairs leading to the Heaven Guarding Sect, many people who wanted to go to Penglai were waiting. However, compared to the rumors, the number of people was much fewer. There were only a hundred people, and this was completely different from the scene in the past.    

Lu Yu displayed his might. The Qin army was at its peak, and many people had given up on joining Penglai and planned to watch from the sidelines.    

However, there were still some people who did not come to join Penglai. Instead, they chose to offer tributes to ensure the safety of their clans and sects.    

"Little brother, you are here to offer tributes, right? From your appearance, it seems to be your first time. It's best if you don't put your tributes in your storage magical treasure. You can just show them directly. This way, you can show your sincerity." An old man saw Lu Yu and could not help but remind him.    

Lu Yu asked, "Elder, what tributes?"    

"Aren't you here to offer tributes? Could it be that you want to join the Heaven Guarding Sect and take the opportunity to join Penglai? I advise you to give up on this idea. The Heaven Guarding Sect has already said that they will no longer recruit new disciples. It's useless even if you come now."    

The old man pointed to the countless carriages and servants in the distance. All sorts of treasure chests were piled up on the carriages, forming a small mountain.    

"Tribute? That's a saying only for the imperial court. What qualifications does Penglai have to collect these things?" Lu Yu asked.    

"Shh! Lower your voice. Actually, we all know about this matter. However, there is no other way. My family's assets are controlled by Penglai. They have to offer tributes once a month. Otherwise, my children and grandchildren will be sent to Penglai as slaves."    

A hint of fear flashed across the old man's face. "That place is not a place for humans. Whoever enters will never be able to come out again. We can only do this."
