Chapter 472: Chapter 357: The Oath of Brotherhood at Qingyun
Zhen Gu droned on for quite some time.
He spoke in great detail about everything from the inception of the first Heavenly Master to his transformation into a seated statue, even interspersing a childhood anecdote of the Heavenly Master using a pear to break a jar and save a friend.
Zhou Yi listened in confusion, many of the deeds were not his own doing.
For example, patching the Heavenly Leak with one hand, crafting the Investiture of the Gods, arranging formations for the Heavenly Court, and so on, now they’re all recorded in the “Legacy of the Heavenly Master” and considered official history in the Qingyun Temple to this very day.@@@@
Perhaps in a million years, they will also become the official history of the Dongsheng Divine Continent!
Zhen Gu finally counted down the time, and from his sleeve, he took out two treasures, the Sun-occluding Robe and the Mysterious Heavenly Divine Shuttle.
“These are the Supreme Treasures left by the first Heavenly Master. I have already unlocked the restrictions; cultivate them well. On the day of successful integration, we shall hold the Heavenly Master Succession Ceremony, and at that time, Divine Ox and Sun Saint will grace us with their presence!”
Zhou Yi received the two treasures, his mana surging, emitting a dazzling spiritual radiance.
The Mysterious Heavenly Divine Shuttle joyously danced in the air, while the Sun-occluding Robe transformed into an indigo-colored Taoist robe that fit perfectly when he wore it.
“This...”
When Zhen Gu saw this scene, he knelt before the grave after a long shock and said, “Thank you, Ancestor Master!”
Zhou Yi’s mouth twitched, reclaiming his own treasures. What did this have to do with the Ancestor Master?
Zhen Gu urged, “It must be the Ancestor Master’s divine intervention, for the Supreme Treasure to recognize you just now. Aren’t you going to kneel and give thanks?”
“Thank you, Ancestor Master!”
Zhou Yi helplessly knelt down and kowtowed nine times to his own gravestone, knocking his forehead three times with each kowtow.
...
The invitations for the grand ceremony of the Heavenly Master’s succession were sent out.
All the nearby Mountain Gods and Land Deities received an invitation, finding the Dharma name “Chang Yi” very unfamiliar. After inquiring and investigating, they were all shocked.
Two years for Foundation Establishment, twelve years for Golden Core, a hundred years for Nascent Soul!
With such a terrifying rate of breakthroughs, not even the Heavenly Spiritual Root could compare; it could only be the fabled Innate successor.
“Innate successor?”
Ao Kun expressed his concern, “Should we just let Qingyun Mountain grow stronger? If the seventh-generation Heavenly Master truly is an Innate successor, we might see the emergence of a third human immortal!”
“What’s the hurry?”
The Heavenly Emperor responded, “Is Qingyun Mountain larger than the three Immortal Sects?”
Ao Kun answered, “The three Immortal Sects have deep roots and were thriving under the rule of four human immortals, with old ancestors from the Immortal Realm to rely on, far exceeding Qingyun Mountain!”
“That’s that, then. If I could scheme the decline of the three Immortal Sects, should I fear Qingyun Mountain?”
The Heavenly Emperor gave the fishing rod a light flick, hooking a golden-scaled fish. “Ruling the Heavenly Court is like fishing; patient and steady, one will always gain something. Relay my will, order the Ministry of Rites Minister Bai to congratulate the new Heavenly Master on my behalf.”
“As you command.”
Ao Kun caught the goldfish with both hands and asked, “Your Majesty, where is this fish to be stationed?”
All fish in the Heavenly Pond were demonic breeds, and upon being caught by the Heavenly Emperor, they were often appointed to official positions, demonstrating his benevolence. Therefore, many great demonic offspring transformed into goldfish, vying to be hooked for a shortcut to success.
The Heavenly Emperor put away the fishing rod and spoke coldly.
“Send this fish to the Elixir Hall, to be refined into Spirit Pills!”
Ao Kun quickly bowed and left, as it was clear that the Heavenly Emperor was angered by the matter of the Heavenly Master.
...
On this day.
Qingyun Mountain.
Two beams of light shot through the sky at high speed, followed by several strands of black Qi, chasing one after the other until they reached the foot of the mountain.
“This place is the stronghold of the Heavenly Master’s legacy. You demon heads still dare to pursue?”
The beam of light at the forefront slowed down considerably, revealing a man and a woman, both Taoists. The man was Yang Jin, his aura in disarray and several streams of Yin Sha continuously eroding his body.
The demon heads hesitated for a moment, but considering the consequences of returning empty-handed, they unleashed their magic and attacked again.
“Capture this wench, and the master will reward us with a condensing infant Spiritual Object!”
As they spoke, a vast expanse of Yin demonic Qi spilled forth, transforming into a gigantic ghostly face, surging towards Yang Jin and his companion with its mouth agape.
“Yao’er, you go ahead!”
