Chapter 3336: Chapter 1260: Martial Prowess Display, Venerable Tianyuan (Part 2)

Yaoxi probed tentatively, "Then what about my disciple, Xuan Luo?"

Elder Ancient Wood laughed heartily. "For him to be able to follow by the Alchemy Saint’s side for a period of time is already a reward as grand as heaven itself—what need is there to worry? Besides, with how much favor the Alchemy Saint shows Xuan Luozi, whatever he ought to receive will naturally not be lacking."

Yaoxi True Master let out a breath of relief.

The others also relaxed, all very much looking forward to tomorrow’s grand ceremony.

It was said that not only would they be able to see the revered Integration Great Venerable, but a number of Daoist Sect experts who had made their names long ago would also appear at this ceremony.

Every one of those people was a powerful existence in the Divinity Transformation and Refining Void Realm.

For ordinary Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators, this might be a spectacle they would find hard to witness even once in their entire life.

For them to be personally present— even without those rewards— would already be enough to become talking points for years to come.

The night passed without incident.

The second day.

As the Six Paths Bell tolled and gentle sunlight poured down, the Tianyuan Grand Ceremony slowly opened its curtain.

...

"It’s begun!"

The sound of that Six Paths Bell was long and far-reaching, as if it could pierce through every Prohibition— at least within the Tianyuan Daoist Sect, it was so.

Any Immortal Cultivator within the mountain gate could hear this sound.

Including the Alchemy Saint Hall!

Luo Chen, though indifferent to this grand event, still felt a trace of regret. He had seen Void Refining True Monarchs, and had once faced off against Mahayana True Spirits, yet had never witnessed an Integration Great Venerable.

This time he had, after all, missed the chance.

Beside him, Chu Yan seemed utterly unaware; she merely suddenly reminded, "Next we have to reverse Yin Yang and overturn Sun and Moon— do you still remember the Dao Law Method I taught you?"

Luo Chen gave an affirmative grunt, and the Dao Law in his hands immediately began to change.

Not only that, he even spat out from his mouth a deep crimson Flame of dazzling brilliance, beginning to burn that Sun and Moon Bottle.

This was already the final step before the Finished Pill!

The True Fire required was extremely vast, and it could not be interrupted.

Chu Yan glanced over, a hint of astonishment flashing across her eyes.

"Vermilion Bird Divine Fire?"

Though for this step, the stronger the Flames the better, she had not expected that Luo Chen would actually be able to spit out Vermilion Bird Divine Fire.

Moreover, judging from its Breath, although it was not as mighty as the Daoist Sect’s True Monarch Zhu Que, in terms of purity, the two seemed to have no difference at all.

That astonishment flashed by and Chu Yan no longer lingered on it. Her small mouth parted slightly, and a wisp of fire like white frost slowly drifted out, covering the other half of the Sun and Moon Bottle.

Even though Luo Chen had seen Chu Yan use this fire several times during the prior Pill Refinement of the Demon Seed Transformation Pill, at this moment he could not help but inwardly marvel.

Zhenlong Frost Flame!

Exquisitely beautiful, as clear and pure as frost and snow.

Yet within that limpid clarity, it contained a terrifying might that could freeze all things and burn everything to fine ash.

Luo Chen could well imagine, if this fire were wielded by an ice Attribute Cultivator adept at Spell Battle, how great its killing power would be.

Though Chu Yan would not be wasting it by using it for Pill Refinement— on the contrary, it was like adding wings to a tiger— in his eyes, who excelled at Spell Battle, its development still seemed somewhat insufficient.

The two held different thoughts in their hearts, yet their cooperation was utterly seamless.

Under the overlapping burn of Vermilion Bird Divine Fire and Zhenlong Frost Flame, the Sun and Moon Bottle began to faintly tremble.

A wisp of wondrous Pill Fragrance slowly wafted out from within.

The Cultivators who smelled it stirred restlessly, yet at the same time felt greatly at ease.

The God Stabilizing Pill was about to be formed!

...

Yao Mountain!

The Tianyuan Daoist Sect’s Forbidden Area, and at the same time its Holy Land.

This was the place where the Venerable Tianyuan entered Closed-Door Cultivation.

On ordinary days, not to mention Outer Sect Cultivators, even the Sect Disciples themselves could not lightly set foot within.

Yet today the mountain gate was wide open, pervaded by an air of harmony and joyous celebration.

One figure after another strolled along the mountains, going toward the summit as though on a pilgrimage.

Cultivators came and went all around like threads, each person emanating a powerful Breath.

The Nascent Soul True Masters who had counted as figures of note in the Outer World now trembled like ants.

The Divinity Transformation Elders of each Sect stood at the head of their respective Disciples, and incidentally introduced to them those Daoist Sect experts who occasionally passed by.

"That is Hua Wu Daoist, in the God Transformation Realm, long since famous."

"That female Great Power who just walked past is named Xiang Hua. Don’t be fooled by her youthful appearance; in truth, she already possesses the powerful Cultivation Level of the Late Nascent Soul Stage, and is very likely to be the next Daoist Sect expert to break through to the Void Refining Stage.

"You recognize Master Honghai, don’t you? Who would have thought he would also come— in the past he was always cultivating outside."

"Xingzhi and Zhao Hui, the two came together. It’s said that when they were traveling in the Outer Continent, they studied Buddhist Sect classics, and now they have returned to the Sect as well."

One Divine Transformation Great Power after another walked about Yao Mountain like ordinary Mortals.

Though their expressions differed, each one without exception radiated a formidable aura.

The Disciples of each Sect participating in the Demon Suppression Trial were nearly dazzled from looking.

The Divine Transformation Great Powers who were incomparably mighty in the Outer World now appeared before them just like cabbages in a marketplace, visible everywhere.

After the shock came numbness.

The might of the Daoist Sect, which in the past had existed only in words, now was carved deep into their hearts.

Even Dean He, who had already broken through to the Divine Transformation Stage, could not help but feel waves in his heart at this moment.

Elder Ancient Wood introduced while observing the state of his Disciples. Seeing this scene, he could not help but sigh.

This so-called Tianyuan Grand Ceremony, on the surface was a celebration of the Venerable Tianyuan emerging from Closed-Door Cultivation and a placation of the Cultivators of the various Sects, but how was it not also the most blatant display of force?

One could well imagine!

The Disciples of the various Sects attending the ceremony were themselves of no mediocre talent, and had furthermore survived the Demon Suppression Trial; in the future they would definitely become the pillars of their respective Sects.

Having today witnessed the glory and might of the Tianyuan Daoist Sect, they would in the future surely be unable to raise any rebellious intent.

Even if, in days to come, there were those who could break through to the Refining Void Realm like their Sect Master, Taisu Spirit Monarch, or even cultivate to the Body Integration Realm, they would likely still deeply remember this scene and remain reverent and respectful to the Tianyuan Daoist Sect.
