Chapter 628: Ming Zun Arrives
In the square, the group of cultivators who were struck by this good fortune were truly ecstatic. They tried their best to activate , and soon all the scattered petals were sucked up by them.
I think that after they return, many of them will be able to break through directly.
At this moment, two huge five-colored lotuses appeared silently, with two figures sitting on them.
Its body was like a towering mountain, and its aura was as deep as an unfathomable ocean. After this aura enveloped the square, it instantly became quiet.
"Greetings!"
Fairy Qianling spoke loudly at this time.
"Congratulations to Senior Ye for advancing to the Mahayana stage. All the practitioners celebrate together!"
"Congratulations to Senior Ling Huang for advancing to the Mahayana stage. All the practitioners celebrate together!"
…
The sounds of congratulations came one after another, like an overwhelming tidal wave, echoing from inside to outside, resounding between heaven and earth.
First, the 100,000 people in the square congratulated loudly at the same time, then the group of cultivators gathered in Linghuang City congratulated together, and then the countless cultivators of the two races gathered outside Linghuang City, all expressed their joy in the loudest voices .
Hearing these congratulations, on the other side of the square, on the top of a majestic and magnificent attic on a leaf of the Holy Sky Spirit Tree, many of the seven or eight foreign Mahayana masters who were invited to this place suddenly changed their expressions and secretly sighed at the strength of the human and demon races.
"Friend Mo, Friend Ao, your two races of humans and demons have hidden a lot of strength in the past!" An old man with a dark complexion turned his head and said to Mo Jianli and Ao Xiao who were accompanying them in the attic.
"No, our two tribes were just barely surviving on the continent in the past. How could we hide our strength?" Mo Jianli said with a faint smile.
In fact, both humans and demons did hide some strength in the past, but it was not as amazing as it is today.
The reason why the strength has increased dramatically now is because of the influx of a large amount of resources in the past few decades, which has allowed many people who have been stuck in bottlenecks for many years to break through in one go.
But even so, if we don't count the high-level combat forces, the human and demon races are still struggling to be considered a medium-sized ethnic group.
It will take at least another few thousand or tens of thousands of years of development for the number of combined monks to reach four or five hundred before they can be said to have firmly established their status as a middle-level ethnic group.
In order to become a large clan, the number of combined cultivators must exceed one thousand.
"What happened in the past is not worth mentioning. With Fellow Daoist Ye in the future, the rise of your two clans will not be a problem!" said a tall, ugly old man with a dove-like face with a smile.
There was a hint of kindness in his eyes, and he said slowly: "We, the Feiling tribe, have always intended to form an alliance with the human and demon tribes. I wonder what Daoist Fellow Mo and Daoist Fellow Ao think?"
The person who said this was naturally Yue Long, the Mahayana master of the Feiling clan. He came personally to the human race to congratulate Ye Changsheng on his Mahayana ceremony.
"It all depends on what Fellow Daoist Ye means!" Mo Jianli thought for a moment and said with a smile.
Ao Xiao also nodded, looking like he agreed.
Seeing that these two veteran Mahayana monks were following Ye Changsheng's lead, the other Mahayana monks couldn't help but feel heavy-hearted.
Could it be true, as the legend goes, that this new human Mahayana cultivator had extraordinary strength and killed a seven-headed owl?
Yue Long was not surprised to hear what Mo Jianli and Ao Xiao said. He chuckled and thought to himself that given his friendship with Ye Changsheng, the other party should not refuse this matter.
After the waves of congratulations gradually subsided, the Spiritual Emperor stood up, smiled and said to everyone in the square:
"Thank you all for coming to attend the Mahayana ceremony of me and Brother Ye. You have come from afar and have worked hard on the way. We in Linghuang City have specially prepared a cup of spiritual tea for you. Please enjoy it!"
As the Spirit Emperor spoke, he clapped his hands, and suddenly a large group of beautiful maids in white appeared in the square, holding spiritual tea in their hands, and walked towards the monks.
The moment they saw these women, many monks were amazed. With their keen eyesight, it was not difficult to tell that these beautiful maids were not real people, but puppets.
I've long heard that the Spiritual Emperor's puppetry is unrivaled in the world, and today I've broadened my horizons.
In the crowd, Tianyuan Shenghuang and Xuanwu Bahuang, who were once the three emperors, felt extremely complicated when they saw this scene. Linghuang, who was on par with them, became a Mahayana cultivator, but they still have no hope of breaking through.
Standing up with a little bitterness in his heart, Tianyuan Saint Emperor bowed to Ye Changsheng and Linghuang and said:
"Thank you two seniors. To celebrate your advancement to the Mahayana stage, I have specially presented you two 50,000-year-old wild and miraculous herbs. I hope you two live as long as the heavens!"
As Tianyuan Saint Emperor spoke, he shook his wrist and two wooden boxes appeared in his hands. When he opened the wooden box, an extremely rich fragrance immediately filled his nose.
"Thank you for the generous gift, fellow Daoist. If there is a chance, we two will definitely go to Tianyuan City to visit in person!" Ye Changsheng stood up and said.
Ye Changsheng and Ling Huang stood side by side. For a moment, they looked like a pair of immortal lovers. The man was talented and the woman was beautiful, which made everyone envious.
In particular, some people had vaguely heard of some gossip circulating in Linghuang City, and when they looked at these two people, there was a hint of strangeness in their eyes.
Ye Changsheng is a man with many wives and concubines, but he can actually hook up with a Mahayana cultivator like Ling Huang, and this Mahayana cultivator doesn't seem to have any complaints, which is really admirable.
After the Holy Emperor Tianyuan, the Overlord Emperor Xuanwu and the demon kings of the demon clan also stood up one after another, offered words of blessing, and took out gifts. Puppet maids shuttled around them and took away the gifts one by one.
Ye Changsheng responded to these people politely. Later, Master Jin Yue, the envoy from Tianyuan City, and Li Rong, the envoy from the Holy Island, also stood up one after another.
After them came some famous sects and great cultivators among the human race. Facing these people, Ye Changsheng also showed a warm attitude and spoke a few words to them one after another.
After that, Ye Changsheng basically kept silent, and instead became the Spirit Emperor, making a few polite words to those people of greater importance, most of whom did not even have the cultivation level of a combined body.
He felt extremely honored to be able to talk to a Mahayana monk and sat back in great excitement.
The level of congratulations became lower and lower, and in the end, the Spiritual Emperor didn't say anything, just nodded occasionally.
"Xu Jiao, the Patriarch of the Xu Family in Tianyuan Realm, congratulates the two seniors on their advancement to Mahayana. I have specially prepared two 30,000-year-old Qinghan Holy Fruits for the two seniors. I hope the two seniors can make further progress and live as long as the heavens!"
The person who stood up was a man in white with a scholarly look on his face. His cultivation was at the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, which was not noticeable at all in this square.
But when this person appeared, Ye Changsheng, who was sitting on the lotus platform, suddenly stood up and said with a warm smile on his face:
"It turns out to be Patriarch Xu. Thank you for your kindness. If I have time, I will definitely visit the Xu family!"
Hearing Ye Changsheng's words, Xu Jiao was so excited that he trembled all over, and hurriedly said: "The Xu family will definitely be waiting for the arrival of the senior!"
As he said this, he looked around again, but did not see his daughter Xu Qianyu, which made him feel a little regretful.
Not only did Xu Qianyu not show up, but none of Ye Changsheng's other women showed up either, which made some people speculate.
Is there a fire in the harem?
Don’t those women want to come and witness the ceremony of the Spirit Emperor achieving Mahayana?
For a moment, many people were burning with gossip.
Ye Changsheng, the renowned Mahayana master, was actually having a conversation with a young cultivator who had reached the state of Divine Transformation. For a moment, everyone present looked up to this bookish man.
Those who didn't understand the inside story looked at Xu Jiao with surprise and envy, and at the same time were full of confusion.
However, those who knew the inside story were not surprised. Just look at how long the daughter of the head of the Xu family has lived in Linghuang City. Every time she goes out, she is accompanied by Nangong Wan and other genuine Taoist companions of Ye Changsheng. The message conveyed by this has long been guessed by these old guys.
The Xu family has truly climbed onto a high branch and will soar to the sky in the future!
After the head of the Xu family sat down, one sect after another and one clan after another came to congratulate the two of them, but Ye Changsheng also sat back without saying another word.
When most people on the field were about to congratulate, it was finally the turn of an old man in the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm to stand up and say with a look of great respect:
"Lin Huo, the Sect Master of the Xingling Sect in the Tianling Realm, congratulates the two seniors on their advancement to the Mahayana stage. Our sect has prepared two thousand kilograms of Xinghuo Sand for the two seniors. I wish the two seniors a long life!"
Two thousand kilograms of starfire sand was not some amazing treasure. It was just . Everyone present lost interest after hearing about it.
The Xingling Sect is not a very powerful sect. It is very inconspicuous and no one cares too much about them.
However, the next moment, what surprised everyone present was that after hearing these words, Ye Changsheng spoke with a warm smile on his face:
"So you are the leader of Xingling Sect. Daoist friend, you may want to stay in Linghuang City for a while after this ceremony. Perhaps you will gain a lot!"
Ye Changsheng's words were full of profound meaning. As soon as he said it, everyone except himself was shocked!
Why would an ordinary sect trouble this person to personally entertain us?
One hundred thousand cultivators were puzzled, the Spirit Emperor looked at Ye Changsheng in surprise, and even the leader of the Xingling Sect was extremely shocked, not understanding why he would be favored by this person?
After being stunned for a few breaths, the leader of the Xingling Sect finally reacted. He trembled all over and bowed deeply in excitement to thank Ye Changsheng.
In the square, many eyes fell on him, as if they wanted to see through him. At this moment, the representatives of the major forces of the human race made up their minds that they must establish a good relationship with the Xingling Sect after returning.
Those people from the sects and families that had grievances with the Xing Ling Sect in the past suddenly turned pale and became uneasy, as if a disaster was about to happen. They were thinking about how to please the Xing Ling Sect and eliminate the old grudges.
Regardless of whether there is any relationship between the Xingling Sect and Ye Changsheng, the mere fact that he could speak to the Sect Master of the Xingling Sect is enough to make people imagine.
This is also the power possessed by a person like Ye Changsheng. With just one sentence, he can determine the future and destiny of many people.
After the major forces of the human and demon races finished their congratulations, some envoys from foreign races stood up to congratulate the two. These races that were basically some large races on the Fengyuan Continent, as well as some small and medium-sized races that were far away from the human territory.
They were not that concerned about the rise of the human race, so they did not send strong enough people.
As for those ethnic groups that were right next to the human race, they sent out their Mahayana practitioners one after another. They were more concerned about the attitudes of the two newly advanced Mahayana practitioners of the human race.
"Zhu Shi, the envoy of the Long Body Clan, represents several of our clan's supreme elders in congratulating the two seniors on their advancement to the Mahayana stage. Our clan is presenting them with twenty top-level magic weapons and thirty thousand kilograms of purple netherworld soil!"
A tall man with a strange appearance stood up and spoke loudly.
The Changshen Clan is a medium-sized clan near the Feiling Clan. Ye Changsheng had once seen a genius from their clan.
Ye Changsheng nodded and said calmly: "Thank your fellow Taoists for me!"
The messenger calmly responded after hearing this and sat back on the cushion.
Next, when the envoy of a small tribe near the Long Body Tribe was about to stand up, suddenly a loud laugh was heard outside the Holy Tree of the Heavenly Spirit:
"I, Mingzun, am here on behalf of the Helian Merchant Alliance to congratulate Fellow Daoist Ye on his advancement to the Mahayana stage. Fellow Daoist Ye will not blame me for coming uninvited, right?"
"Ming Zun?!"
"What? It's Ming Zun?"
"Why did he go out in person?"
"The human race actually alerted Ming Zun's arrival!"
…
As the hearty voice fell, there was a sudden commotion in the square. Even the few Mahayana monks who were waiting in the attic not far away stood up suddenly, their faces full of astonishment.
The arrival of Ming Zun really gave them an indescribable shock. This long-famous powerful man, who could be said to be the number one existence in the spiritual world, actually showed up in person!
Could it be that the rumor is true?
Did this new Mahayana human really kill a seven-headed owl?
If not, how could a figure like Mingzun be bothered to come in person?
The Spiritual Emperor's expression froze, and she was about to stand up with fear in her eyes, but Ye Changsheng grabbed her hand and motioned for her to sit down and not worry about it.
Then, he stood up and said loudly: "I am very happy that Taoist Mingzun can come to the human race. How can I blame him?"
"I just don't know what your intention is in coming here? Are you an enemy or a friend?"
Ye Changsheng's straightforward words immediately made many people worried. It turned out that the rumors about the improper relationship between the human race and the Helian Business Alliance were true?
It seems that Mingzun came to the human race this time to cause trouble for this human Mahayana?
There’s something interesting to watch!
