Chapter 987: Grand Ceremony
Seeing that everyone was pushing him to be responsible for the preparation of this grand ceremony, Jin Qing couldn't help but develop a subtle sense of belonging to Wujimen, and quickly stepped forward and knelt on one knee to receive the order.
Trust the people you employ; don’t employ people you don’t trust.
With Jin Qing, a veteran top-class Taoist disciple, in charge of the preparations for the ceremony, Qin Ziling, the head of the Wuji Sect, quickly became a hands-off boss out of habit.
In addition to preaching every now and then and instructing his disciples on their practice, he also discussed the profound mysteries of the Tao with the four ladies.
Not many days later, although the invitation had not been sent out yet, the news that Wujimen was going to open its gates and hold a grand opening ceremony had spread in Savage Continent, and even gradually spread to other immortal continents and the ten heavenly realms.
Soon, the Immortal King's Palace ordered Immortal Yuan Miao to send some Golden Emperor Peaches and other specialties of the Immortal King's Palace.
Emperor Mou Tian also ordered people to send some Tianbo Water-patterned Fruits and other specialties.
Golden Emperor Peach and Tianbo Water Pattern Fruit are both half-fruits.
The immortal fruits and immortal wine sent by Rou Zhaotian were enough to cope with this grand ceremony. The Immortal King Palace and Emperor Mou Tian also sent these two kinds of half-way fruits and some other specialties. Adding on the Wuji Sect's own foundation, all of a sudden, the items prepared by Wuji Sect for this grand ceremony became more than enough.
…
Ten years passed in the blink of an eye.
It was a sunny and windy day.
The foggy sea has dissipated, the sea breeze is blowing gently, and the blue waves are rippling.
There are rumbling sounds in Mirage Dragon Mountain, auspicious dragons and phoenixes, and the mountain is covered with auspicious clouds and auspicious aura.
Outside the Mirage Dragon Mountain, in the distance of the sea, from time to time, immortals would come riding on auspicious clouds, or riding on mythical beasts and birds, or riding on Taoist treasures...
Each immortal is very extraordinary, and their appearances are all grand.
There are fairies scattering flowers in front, and immortals holding banners...
Because this day was the grand opening ceremony of the Wuji Sect, all those who were qualified to attend the banquet were powerful Taoist immortals or figures representing a powerful force.
Immortal King Sheng Lou and Emperor Mou Tian both came in person early to help Qin Ziling entertain the guests.
Because the Wuji Sect’s grand opening ceremony is not only a grand event for the Wuji Sect, but also a major event for the Wilderness Fairyland.
Logically speaking, the ten great celestial realms would send a venerable here today, the Immortal Emperor would also send an important official here, and the other fifteen immortal continents' ancient great powers would definitely send top-notch Taoist disciples even if their leaders did not come in person.
Immortal King Sheng Lou and Emperor Mou Tian are both super-class Taoist immortals from the Savage Immortal Continent, and can be considered half-owners of this feast.
Of course, there are other reasons why Immortal King Saint Lou and Emperor Mou Tian were so proactive in helping, besides the fact that they are half-landlords.
One was that during the discussion a thousand years ago, Qin Ziling gave them some valuable information, and the two of them benefited from it, so they felt that they owed him a favor;
Another reason is that since its rise, Wuji Sect has basically been guarding the territory of the Great Savage Sea for the past thousand years. It has not competed with them for power, nor has it bullied and occupied the territories of other forces. This makes the Immortal King Sheng Lou and Emperor Mou Tian feel at ease.
As the saying goes, there can't be two tigers in one mountain.
If Qin Ziling really reveals his great ambitions, the two of them will probably have to join forces to suppress him.
The harmony and unity of the three super-class Taoist immortals in Savage Immortal Continent surprised and astonished all the people who came to attend the ceremony.
The rise of a powerful new force will inevitably lead to the shaking or even collapse of the old force.
Therefore, the conflict between the new and old forces is inevitable.
For example, when the Damu Kingdom rose, it had many conflicts with the Immortal King Palace. Later, a balance was gradually reached, forming the current situation.
This time, Wujimen is rising between two super forces. In the eyes of many people, friction and conflict are bound to occur.
The result was unexpected. The three of them were like friends, and even Sheng Lou and Mou Tian took on the responsibilities of half the masters.
At Mirage Mountain, the main peak of the Mirage Dragon Mountains, in the courtyard where a canopy-like Heavenly Dao Creation fruit tree was planted, Qin Ziling personally entertained ten venerables from the ten celestial realms, the Southern Red Fire Emperor, one of the five elders sent by the Immortal Emperor, and the super-class Taoist immortals and top-class Taoist immortals representing the super-class forces of the Sixteen Immortal Continents.
Although the Heavenly Dao Creation Fruit is magical and can enlighten people to become Taoist immortals, it is not a half-Tao tree, let alone a Taoist tree. For a super force like the Wuji Sect, it must be a bit shabby.
But Qin Ziling was helpless.
All the known half-way trees in the Huangji World are owned by owners, so there is no way he could steal them. Although the Five Elements Fruit Tree is extremely magical and is clearly a half-way tree, because it possesses the five elements, it is almost comparable to a Dao tree, but currently it cannot be seen in the light of day.
Qin Ziling naturally couldn't show it off, so he could only make do with entertaining bigwigs from various forces in the yard where the Tiandao fruit trees were planted.
Fortunately, Rou Zhaotian specially sent some Dao fruits and half-Dao fruits, and Immortal King Sheng Lou and Emperor Mou Tian also sent some half-Dao fruits.
When these things were placed on the table, they immediately concealed the shabby appearance of Wuji Sect without the Bandao tree, and even caused surprise among the bigwigs from all sides. They looked at Qin Ziling in a slightly different way.
The Red Flame Lotus Seeds are so precious that even Rou Zhao Tianzun rarely takes them out to entertain guests. However, Rou Zhao Tianzun actually brought quite a lot of them to the Wuji Sect's grand opening ceremony this time. When thinking about the battle a thousand years ago, Qinghan personally showed up, it is very intriguing.
What is the relationship between Wujimen and Rouzhaotian?
Could it be Rou Zhaotian’s power in the earthly immortal world?
But it doesn't seem like it.
If Wujimen was Rouzhaotian's force in the Earthly Immortal World, then during the battle in the Misty Sea a thousand years ago, Venerable Qinghan would have directly clarified the relationship instead of appearing as an advocate of justice.
When it comes to a force of their level, there is no need to hide anything when doing things.
If not, the cost of Rouzhao Tianxia would be too great!
Even if a disciple of Rou Zhao Tian Zun is promoted to a super-grade Taoist immortal, Rou Zhao Tian Zun may not necessarily take out so many red flame lotus seeds for his disciples to hold a super-grade Taoist immortal banquet.
Everyone's brains were spinning, but they still couldn't see through it.
But one thing is absolutely certain, that is, Wujimen and Rouzhaotian have a close relationship.
…
Qin Ziling, the newly promoted super-class Taoist immortal, did not show the slightest sign of restraint or stage-fright when facing a group of veteran super-class Taoist immortals.
He greeted the fairies with laughter and chat.
After some greetings and three rounds of drinks, according to convention, Qin Ziling, the newly promoted super-class Taoist immortal, needed to go on stage to discuss Taoism.
Qin Ziling sat cross-legged on a cushion, suspended in the air under the Heavenly Dao Creation Fruit Tree, and began to preach.
It talks about the avenue of fire. The language is obscure and sounds extremely mysterious and profound, but when you think about it carefully, it seems as if it is saying nothing.
Of course, no matter how mysterious a person's sermon is, it is inevitable that he will unconsciously reveal a hint of the truth that he has realized.
Therefore, a truly powerful person is one who can grasp that hint of truth and not be blinded by illusions.
After Qin Ziling's speech, Immortal King Saint Lou and Emperor Mou Tian, as half-masters, also went on stage and spoke.
After Emperor Mou Tian finished his speech, according to custom, the host came on stage and invited the guests to discuss the doctrine.
However, Qin Ziling was just going on stage, thinking of inviting Qinghan to attend the event, when Venerable Shang Bing from Yongtian spoke with a smile.
“This kind of preaching is too boring, and today is the grand opening ceremony of Wuji Sect, which is a great event and should be celebrated with great enthusiasm.
I have a suggestion. Why don't we find a disciple from each side and let them compete. This way, not only can they have a chance to learn from each other and prove their own ways, but it can also be a lively occasion."
