“I’ll take my leave first.” Deacon Wang cupped his hands and turned to leave.
Looking at Deacon Wang’s back, Shen Ping was not in a hurry to return to the backyard of the hall to share this unexpected joy with his wife, concubine, and Dao companions. Instead, he took out the purple jade ring and went straight to Jingsi House.
The small courtyard was simple and unadorned. There was no one in sight. But soon, a figure in a palace dress appeared beside the stone platform. There was a smile on her dignified and virtuous face. When Shen Ping saw this, he hurriedly went forward and bowed. “Thank you, Master, for allowing my wife, concubine, and Dao companions to participate in the ceremony.”
The gentle voice said calmly, “It’s a small matter. There’s no need to care. Since they’re your Dao companions, they’ll live and die together and share fortune and misfortune with you.”
At this point, she looked at Shen Ping and asked, “The inheritance of the Beast Scripture is especially important. Do you still remember the conditions for comprehending the Beast Scripture that 1 mentioned?”
Shen Ping said immediately, “To comprehend the Beast Scripture, at the very least, you have to comprehend the first level of the Beast Form Final State with two skills. As for true comprehension, you need four.”
The woman in the palace dress nodded. “Disciple, although you have formed the Golden Core of the Beast Pattern and don’t have to worry about being affected by the Beast Scripture, if you want to achieve anything, you have to focus on studying various technique scrolls…”
Shen Ping listened attentively to the Head Hall Master’s teachings. A few moments later, he then left Jingsi House.
As the personal disciple ceremony approached, the top sects in the Zhongsheng Continent, such as the Moon Lotus Holy Sect, the Heavenly Inspection Platform, the Ghost Sage Luo Valley, and more than ten powerful sects, were led by their Supreme Elders to watch the ceremony. If it was in the past, when a top faction held a personal disciple ceremony, they would at most let the higher-ups lead the team.
However, it was different this time.
First of all, the True Treasure Pavilion had an ancient and powerful foundation. Rumor had it that the strength of its Head Hall Master was ranked at the top of the five continents and four seas. The other sects should pay attention to it.
Secondly, now that Spring Garden had stirred up a war in the Zhongsheng Continent, the higher-ups of the other sects were worried about how to discuss an alliance with the True Treasure Pavilion. This Personal Disciple Ceremony happened to be an opportunity.
In the end, they heard that the master of Spring Garden would also come to watch the ceremony, so these Supreme Elders gathered together mainly to jointly pressure him and ask what he wanted to do.
It was precisely because of this that the guest courtyards of the various halls of the True Treasure Pavilion became even more lively.
On the island’s white jade square, there was an endless stream of large flying ships parked.
Dan Hai Hall.
In the guest courtyard.
The Supreme Elder of the Moon Lotus Holy Sect personally arrived. Her white hair was like a waterfall. She sat at the head of the bedroom. As she quietly sipped her tea, she listened to the progress of the Holy Maiden in recent years.
“Grandmaster, that Talisman Master Shen has a strong willpower. No matter how much 1 hint, he hasn’t really wavered. In addition, there’s a Sacred Envoy and another Perfected Nascent Soul cultivator in the side hall. It’s not convenient for me to use many methods. I haven’t made any substantial progress until now.
“Supreme Elder, please punish me!” The Holy Maiden bowed.
The Supreme Elder, whose hair was completely white, had a calm expression. After tasting the spirit tea, she slowly said, “There are priorities. My sect is in danger of survival. If I punish you, who will lead the sect in the future? Let’s put this matter aside for the time being. Let me ask you, does that little fellow like you?”
The Holy Maiden thought about it carefully and shook her head. “When we first met, the other party was lost in thought because of my appearance. However, it didn’t last long. Later on, we had some skin contact, but it was all on the surface. We didn’t have a deep interaction.
“However, looking at Talisman Master Shen’s words and actions, he’s especially exuberant in the aspect of the yin and yang of men and women. He’s even more curious about the top ten physiques of women.”
Hearing this, the Supreme Elder pondered for a moment before staring at the Holy Maiden and saying, “Since that little fellow has an instinctive desire, you have a chance of success. However, you haven’t made any progress after so long. It seems that the problem should be with you. Tell me about him in detail.”
“Yes!”
Several hours later, the Supreme Elder sighed. “Yue’er, although you’re more proficient in the theory of men and women, you’re still a Primordial Yin Body in the end. You haven’t really experienced the feelings of mortals. That little fellow probably cares more about true feelings. All your hints and temptations have a strong purpose. Naturally, it will arouse his disgust. Therefore, if you want to achieve something, you have to pay with your heart.” She waved her hand and said, “Unfortunately, there’s not enough time. Otherwise, I’ll definitely teach you well. You can leave first!”
The Holy Maiden seemed to have understood something and hurriedly bowed and left. After she left, the eyes of the Supreme Elder of the Moon Lotus Holy Sect flickered. Immediately, several phantoms appeared in front of her.
These figures emitted a trembling that distorted space.
“Fellow Daoist Tian Jian, Fellow Daoist Gui Luo, Fairy Bing Ling, from the looks of it, the Personal Disciple Ceremony is the most important thing to the True Treasure Pavilion. Previously, the True Treasure Pavilion did not respond and was most likely preparing for this. Therefore, we should be more patient. After the ceremony, we will discuss the matter of Spring Garden.”
“Sure!”
Three days passed in a flash. When dawn dispelled the darkness of day and night, multicolored light suddenly filled the sky of the island. Rays of rainbow light swept across the palace complex and finally gathered in the sky in the center. Then, a majestic spiritual peak slowly appeared with the rolling sea of clouds.
Compared to the other twelve floating spiritual peaks, this spiritual peak was like a huge creature lying horizontally, suppressing the entire island.
“The Personal Disciple Ceremony begins!” A majestic voice that was like thunder sounded.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
Instantly, a large number of core members and cultivators of more than forty halls soared into the sky one after another. They were either riding magic treasures or flying swords. They rushed straight to the majestic spiritual mountain with flames of different colors. Behind the members of the various halls were the pavilion-level members, followed by the high-level elders at the level of a boat.
The flames were like tens of thousands of willow branches that fell. It was very spectacular. When the cultivators of the other sects in the guest courtyard saw this scene, they could not help but sigh at the strength of the True Treasure Pavilion. This was because they could tell that every single one of these flames represented an extremely powerful cultivator.
“Let’s go!
The Moon Lotus Holy Sect, the Heavenly Inspection Platform, the Ghost Sage Luo Valley, and other top sects also flew to the majestic spiritual peak. They had just landed on the top of the cloud when waves of abundant spiritual energy surged over.
“This is… a Level 9 Spirit Vein!!”
Almost instantly, the disciples of these sects and factions were shocked. They knew that the highest spiritual vein in the Zhongsheng Continent was a low-grade Level 8 spiritual vein, and all of these spiritual veins were the spiritual peaks where the Supreme Elder lived.
However, at this moment, these disciples had seen a Level 9 spiritual vein. If they could cultivate in such an environment, not to mention the Golden Core Realm, even the Nascent Soul Realm and even the Divine Transformation Realm were probably easy.
“As expected of the True Treasure Pavilion! Its foundation is really powerful!” Even though the Supreme Elders leading the team were deep in thought, they could not help but be a little shocked at this moment. After all, a Level 9 spiritual vein was equivalent to thin immortal spiritual energy.
Immortal spiritual energy was at the level of immortal cultivation.
Roar! At this moment, a low roar suddenly sounded from the sea of clouds in the distance. Soon, in the rolling clouds, there were twelve powerful demon beasts pulling huge carriages over.
“It’s twelve main halls!”
“It’s rare to see such lords.”
“That’s right. Only at the Personal Disciple Ceremony can we see the twelve main halls appear together!”
“Not only the twelve main halls, but the Head Hall Master will also come!”
“I’ve been in the headquarters for thousands of years and have never seen the Head Hall Master. I finally have a chance this time!”
A large number of hall-level members floating on both sides of the cloud top discussed in low voices. Be it the hall-level cores or the skill cores on the Glory Ranking, they had basically never seen the Head Hall Master, including the hall masters of the various halls.
After a while, the huge demon beast carriage stopped at the top of the cloud.
Hall Master Yueling, Hall Master Xing Ling, Hall Master Chen Yao, and the other twelve thrones of the main halls stepped out of the carriage. The aura they emitted was vast and majestic. Although it was restrained, the huge pressure swept through the entire Spirit Peak like a wave.
The rich Level 9 spiritual vein’s spiritual energy kept rolling. Whoosh. The array formation of the spiritual vein trembled slightly and quickly offset this pressure, causing the large number of cultivators on both sides of the cloud to suddenly relax.
When the supreme elders of the various top sects saw this, they smiled faintly. They naturally knew that this was a trace of aura deliberately leaked by the twelve main halls of the True Treasure Pavilion.
Boom!
At this moment, a smear of blood suddenly appeared in the distant sky. Before the cultivators on the Cloud Top could react, this blood color spread to the sky above the island at a speed visible to the naked eye and then covered the entire island. Even the majestic spiritual peak was covered in blood for a moment.
The expressions of the Supreme Elders of the Moon Lotus Holy Sect, the Heavenly Inspection Platform, and the Ghost Sage Luo Valley changed slightly. Spring Garden’s master! The Tai Yan Sect was destroyed by him. They did not expect him to really dare to participate in the True Treasure Pavilion’s Personal Disciple Ceremony!
In the blink of an eye, the dark red throne descended. However, immediately after, this boundless blood wave-like blood color dissipated into nothingness. Just as everyone was stunned, a faint laugh sounded from the top of the cloud.. “That little guy should be here soon!”
