215: Golden Elixir Dharma Assembly

"Brother Li, long time no see."

"Brother Lao, I hope you've been well."

Somewhere in Yingyang Commandery, high in the sky.

Two streaks of escape light stopped. One Cultivator stood on a spirit boat, followed by two young Cultivators.

The other Cultivator sat cross-legged on a white spiritual disk, followed by three young Cultivators.

The two parties met and stopped there.

The young Cultivators behind them bowed in salute.

"Brother Lao, are you also here for the Golden Core Dharma Assembly?"

The Cultivator on the spirit boat suddenly asked.

"Brother Li, aren't you asking the obvious?"

"The Zhou Family is hosting a Golden Core Dharma Assembly, how could I not go?"

The Cultivator surnamed Lao, who had been sitting cross-legged on the spiritual disk, had now stood up.

Hearing the Li Clan Cultivator's question, he couldn't help but secretly roll his eyes.

"Hehe~"

The Li Clan Cultivator chuckled, completely unfazed.

"Indeed, indeed, Brother Lao, why don't we go together?"

Then, he invited the Cultivator surnamed Lao.

"Alright."

Lao Dejun had no objections.

Although he and Li Bowei were not overly familiar, they had met several times and had some understanding of each other.

The two circulated their magical power, controlling the speed of the Spiritual Artifacts beneath their feet, and flew towards Cloud Dream Marsh.

"This time, all the Immortal Masters will probably appear at the Golden Core Dharma Assembly."

In the sky, a streak of light flashed past.

Li Bowei's tone was slightly emotional.

This time, Zhou Leren had a Breakthrough to Golden Core.

The Zhou Family then widely distributed invitations, inviting various forces and Cultivators from Yingyang Commandery to Cloud Dream Marsh to attend the Golden Core Dharma Assembly.

There were two intentions: first, to announce it to all directions; second, as the ruling power in Yingyang Commandery, it was only right for the Zhou Family to invite Fellow Daoists to sit and discuss the Dao here.

Previously, the Zhou Family had no Golden Core Immortal Master, so their interactions with the few Golden Core Cultivators in Yingyang Commandery were not close. This was an opportunity to deepen their mutual understanding.

This was the first time the Zhou Family had held such a grand event in Yingyang Commandery, and all families and sects responded enthusiastically.

"Doesn't that mean we'll be able to hear Immortal Masters discuss and preach the Dao?"

Lao Dejun's eyes also lit up, feeling a slight surge of excitement.

"Exactly! For this opportunity, I've given up quite a lot."

Li Bowei was smug, not at all as pained as he claimed.

"Hehe~"

"Brother Li has excellent foresight!"

Seeing Li Bowei's appearance, Lao Dejun offered a half-hearted compliment.

"Oh, no, no..."

Li Bowei waved his hands repeatedly, but the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

The young Cultivators behind them listened to their conversation, and the image of dignified and serious Foundation Establishment Stage Great Cultivators they had in mind seemed to have shifted slightly.

The two chatted, but their speed was not slow.

Ahead, the cloud-shrouded Cloud Dream Marsh was already clearly visible.

"I wonder if I'll be fortunate enough to see His Highness Xuan Emperor's true face this time..."

As they approached Cloud Dream Marsh, Li Bowei suddenly sighed softly.

"His Highness Xuan Emperor is wise and mighty, his prestige shaking the universe. If I could have the honor of meeting him, it would surely be the luck of my three lives."

Li Bowei's voice was not loud, and his eyes were filled with reverence.

"Flatterer..."

"Such a small trick can be seen through at a glance..."

Lao Dejun looked at the Cloud Dream Marsh, which was almost within reach, and immediately saw through Li Bowei's intentions.

He secretly grumbled in his heart, but his face showed no trace of it.

"His Highness Xuan Emperor possesses a heroic physique and extraordinary bearing. That day, I, Lao Dejun, saw His Highness Xuan Emperor from afar, and I can never forget it to this day."

Lao Dejun, like Li Bowei, was full of longing and admiration.

The two unreservedly displayed their admiration.

They inadvertently glanced at each other, and disdain appeared in each other's eyes.

"What a formidable opponent!"

Li Bowei was internally vigilant. He hadn't realized it before, but today he discovered that Lao Dejun's thick skin was in no way inferior to his own.

"Hmph!"

Lao Dejun let out a soft snort in his heart.

He continued to utter various words of praise.

Li Bowei's eyelids twitched slightly.

"We've arrived!"

At this moment, a young Disciple behind them exclaimed.

The two quickly composed themselves and lowered their escape light.

In the distance, amidst dozens of spiritual peaks, two spiritual peaks, one tall and one short, stood guard.

The shorter one was Jade Moon Peak, which had been relocated from Qingyuan Town.

The taller one was a spiritual peak that had always existed in Cloud Dream Marsh.

It was named Yaori Peak by the Zhou Family.

Together with Jade Moon Peak, they were known as the Sun and Moon Twin Peaks.

The Sun and Moon Twin Peaks and the surrounding dozens of spiritual peaks were all part of the Zhou Family's territory.

"Let's go down."

Lao Dejun's expression became solemn. He said a word to Li Bowei, and the white spiritual disk beneath his feet descended.

Li Bowei nodded, following closely behind.

As soon as they landed.

Several Disciples dressed in snake-patterned robes came forward to greet them.

"Greetings to both Seniors, and greetings to all Fellow Daoists."

The Zhou Family welcoming Disciples bowed to the two and the young Cultivators behind them.

The two had gentle expressions, and their magical power surged out, helping the Zhou Family welcoming Disciples to their feet, completely without the airs of Foundation Establishment Stage Great Cultivators.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoists."

Behind the two, the five young Disciples, looking slightly nervous, quickly bowed in return.

"May I ask the names of both Seniors?"

The leading Zhou Family Disciple was neither servile nor overbearing.

"Li Bowei."

"Lao Dejun."

The two spoke together, stating their names.

The leading Disciple gestured to a person behind him.

That person bowed in salute, then took out an object resembling a Jade Slip, infused it with magical power, and it transformed into a streak of light and flew out.

"Senior Li, Senior Lao, please follow me."

The Zhou Family welcoming Disciples led the two and the five young Cultivators towards Yaori Peak.

The two had solemn expressions, while the young Disciples behind them were both nervous and excited, their eyes unconsciously glancing around.

"Such dense Spiritual Qi..."

The surrounding Spiritual Qi drilled into their bodies without the need to consciously circulate their Cultivation Technique.

The five young Cultivators could not hide their shock. They looked at the leading Zhou Family welcoming Disciples with some envy.

If they could cultivate long-term in such a Spiritual Qi-rich place, how could their cultivation speed not be fast?

At the foot of Yaori Peak, upon seeing the Zhou Family Disciples leading people, Disciples who had already been waiting at the foot of the mountain came forward to greet them.

After the handover with the welcoming Disciples, they led the group up Yaori Peak.
