True Martial Sect’s Daoist Qingxu, the Former Celestial Master from Dragon Tiger Mountain, Bai Xiaosheng, Northern Chan Sect’s Two Great Monks, No Dharma, and No Appearance from the School of Buddhism, The Demonic Cult Leader, Xue Wuheng, the Elder, Blood Slaughter Sovereign, the elder representatives of three powerful families: the Wangs of Taiyuan, the Cuis of Qinghe, and the Lis of Longxi, Maitreya Sect Leader Zhao Baiyang, Tie Qianshan from the Tie Sect, Prince Zhu Yousong of Xiang, Zi Tianxiong, the owner of Heavenly King’s Pavilion, all fourteen Spirit Realm strongmen have arrived together.

Those who can participate in the conference on Pei Xuanjing’s backyard mountain today are all strong men of the Spirit Realm. If you haven’t stepped into the Spirit Realm, regardless of your status, you don’t qualify.

Even the master of the Chunyang Sect from the Taoist Alliance, Daoist Xuanming of Baiyun Temple, cannot participate in this conference because he has not broken through the Spirit Realm yet.

Presently, there are fourteen people, including Pei Xuanjing, are fifteen in all. These Spirit Realm strongmen can almost be considered all the visible strongmen throughout the realm of Great Ming.

“You have all traveled from afar, forgive me for not greeting you earlier, I hope you’ll be understanding,”

Pei Xuanjing greeted the crowd.

“No need to be so formal, Taoist friend!”

“There’s no need for such words, Master…”

“There’s no need for such formalities, Master of the Nation.”

“Pei, no need to be so formal.”

The reactions naturally followed when Pei Xuanjing, the world’s first man, started speaking.

From these people’s responses, one could notice the varying degrees of their relationships with Pei Xuanjing.

Pei Xuanjing chuckled, flicked his robe and pointed behind him, saying, “Please have a seat!”

After speaking, he sat down in the main position without any courtesy, and no one in the scene was disrespectful to this swiftly decisive move.

Furthermore, the moment he sat down, an underlying aura sparkles on the seat carved from white Han jade appeared. It connected with his aura and sent out an indistinctly mysterious fluctuation.

This chair is not ordinary!

The ones present were all extraordinary people, and they understood that it was not an ordinary chair. Perhaps this was a test from the National Master.

The group exchanged glances, even the Taoist Qingxu and other alliance members were taken aback.

Yes, this was a test from Pei Xuanjing.

Using the talisman method he had learned in the World of Myriad Manifestations, he left glyphs on each chair.

As Pei Xuanjing sat down, everyone looked at each other, and the Old Celestial Master of the Taoist School laughed, “If no one else is going to make the first move, then allow me.”

Everyone agreed. The Old Celestial Master was a revered figure, ranked second in the Supreme list of the Jianghu world, and had been famous for over two hundred years. He was a senior to all present and his choice to be the second to be seated was not questioned.

“Please, Celestial Master!”

The Old Celestial Master smiled and took a step towards the chair.

The moment he approached, he felt the extraordinary atmosphere of the chair. Numerous glyphs were carved on the chair creating a qi field blanketing the chair, attracting countless Heaven and Earth Essence Qi.

The Celestial Master slowly released Primordial Qi from his body and let it fall onto the chair; the moment he got near, he felt the qi field resisting his approach.

The Celestial Master flicked his five fingers, and few Primordial Qis fell onto the chair. As the chair sparkled, he sat in unison, and the chair’s qi field immediately integrated with him.

“Hm?”

Surprised by the profundity of the Qi field, the Celestial Master looked at Pei Xuanjing.

Pei Xuanjing was silent with a smile, and the Celestial Master did not waste any time, closing his eyes and circulating the method in his body.

Seeing the Celestial Master like this, the other thirteen people looked curiously at Pei Xuanjing.

Pei Xuanjing laughed, “You all travel from afar; I have prepared a small gift for you all on this chair.”

“Hahaha, if Pei is like this, then I won’t be polite.” Zhao Baiyang laughed heartily and stepped forward to one of the chairs.

He unusually trusted Pei Xuanjing. With Pei Xuanjing’s strength, there was no way he would trick him. Looking at the Old Celestial Master, he naturally didn’t refuse.

“If Zhao follows, then I, Snow, cannot fall behind.” Xue Wuheng too smiled and occupied a chair.

The rest of the people no longer hesitated and moved one after another.

The moment they approached the chair, they also felt the chair’s profundity. None of them were surprised and each displayed their skills.

“These people indeed had a profound foundation, even though they had just recently stepped into the Spirit Realm. They are much stronger than the typical Heavenly Rank in the World of Myriad Manifestations,” Pei Xuanjing contemplated in his heart.

The method he set on this chair was both a test and a gift. If they could break through the qi field and sit down, naturally, they could enlighten some insights he left behind.

Of course, this gift seems simple, but it is not.

Understanding from the qi field requires resolving with a clever method. If it were resolved merely with brute force, even though the method would succeed, it would dissipate the qi field and they wouldn’t be able to comprehend his insights.

The Qi field that he left behind was based on a Heavenly Rank strength from the World of Myriad Manifestations. This was a fundamental evaluation unit.

At present, these fourteen people are each employing their methods, but none of them chose to brute force their way. It was evident that their strength in the Spirit Realm was superior to many of the regular strongmen of World of Myriad Manifestations.

“But it is also understandable. It has been only a few years since Heaven and Earth revived. How can these few years produce people who broke through the Spirit Realm without having anything special?” Pei Xuanjing felt a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.

After a while, everyone opened their eyes and thanked Pei Xuanjing.

Pei Xuanjing signaled not to worry and paused for a moment before he started, “Although I have been with the outside world for almost two decades, this is the first time I have sat with you.”

At this point, he couldn’t help but exchange glances with Bai Xiaosheng and a few others because the seating arrangement for the fifteen of them today was quite interesting.

The Taoist Clergies like the Old Celestial Master chose positions adjacent to Pei Xuanjing, and Zhu Yousong, representing the Great Ming imperial court, was next to Daoist Qingxu. On his other side were the three powerful representatives of the Noble Families Union.

The duo from Demonic Sect, Xue Wuheng, were close to the Noble Families Union, and on his other side were Zhao Baiyang and Tie Qianshan. With Zi Tianxiong of Heavenly King’s Pavilion, they conveniently separated the two great masters of Buddhism.

This arrangement vaguely indicated the subtle factions of these powers in the world.

The Taoist School and the Great Ming imperial court were naturally intimate and, therefore, proximate. The Noble Families Union has deep connections with the Great Ming imperial court and was close too.

The Demonic Sect of Xue Wuheng, Zhao Baiyang, Tie Qianshan, and Zi Tianxiong were neither close nor distant, which seemed to indicate some connections.

The Buddhism School seemed a little isolated this time. As per the seating arrangements, they were in the most awkward situation.

Pei Xuanjing continued, “I should have invited you all earlier, unfortunately, I had a little gain and closed off my self until recently. I am inviting you all to Shenxiao Mountain today to discuss the Dao and talk about world affairs!”
