235: The Tianyang Conference begins

Tianyang Divine Mountain, with its surging clouds and mists, felt even more majestic the closer one got to this pillar that propped up the heavens!

At this moment, at the peak of the Divine Mountain, Immortal light shot into the sky, auspicious Qi surged, and various divine, Buddha, Immortal, and Demon phenomena continuously rose and fell, shaking the entire Tianyang World.

Countless beings prostrated themselves in extreme reverence beneath these phenomena.

This phenomenon lasted for a full hour!

“Dong~”

“Dong~”

“...”

Five bell tolls echoed throughout the Tianyang World!

“The Tianyang Assembly will commence three days from now. Those holding a Tianyang Token, please proceed immediately to Tianyang Divine City!”

A grand voice quickly spread throughout the Tianyang World.

“The Power Of Heavenly Dao!”

Xu Qing frowned; he seemed to somewhat understand the reason why the Five Ancestors could exist for so long.

It was also at this time that golden light shone brightly across various parts of the Tianyang World.

There were Golden Flame Divine Lions with four hooves treading golden flames, their entire bodies bathed in firelight; there were Human Race Cultivators in unified attire, their Immortal Qi ethereal; and there were also many other diverse beings gathered together... These beings, enveloped in streaks of golden light, rapidly flew towards the Tianyang Divine Mountain.

The Tianyang Assembly, held once every million years in the Tianyang World, was not open to everyone except the Five Great Divine Sects. Instead, it required a Tianyang Token. There were only two ways to obtain a Tianyang Token: one was to offer Power Of Faith!

There were only a thousand Tianyang Tokens. Over these million years, the top thousand individuals who offered the most Power Of Faith to Tianyang Great God would all receive a Tianyang Token. One Tianyang Token allowed one to bring a hundred people to participate!

The other method was to snatch it, but very few forces were able to achieve this.

Because the forces capable of obtaining a Tianyang Token were absolutely formidable in strength.

To acquire a massive amount of Power Of Faith, one needed vast territory and a huge number of followers. If one didn't have some strength, how could they protect these territories and followers?

Furthermore, a Tianyang Token allowed one to bring a hundred people. Some slightly weaker forces were not foolish and knew that a single tree could not stand alone, so they would find allies. The hundred-person quota was enough for them to operate, and the Five Great Divine Sects tacitly approved of this point.

Tianyang Divine City, a super city located at the foot of Tianyang Divine Mountain, was also the Heavenly Sun Dao Field of the Demon God Sect. In the other four directions, there were also four cities built around Tianyang Divine Mountain, but they were all named Sacred City.

Only this Tianyang Divine City in the entire Tianyang World could be named Divine City.

At this moment, countless beings had already gathered here. Although only a million beings could participate in the Tianyang Assembly, many other beings would come here, even if only to observe from afar, which would be enough to boast about for a lifetime.

After all, this was a grand event held once every million years in the Tianyang World.

“Have you heard? A few days ago, extraterrestrial evil demons invaded, and the Five Great Divine Sects issued decrees to eradicate these extraterrestrial evil demons, but now these people have become honored guests and can attend the Tianyang Assembly tomorrow!”

“Isn't that right? It's said they were even invited into the Immortal Pavilion of the Demon God Sect, which is where the Demon God Sect entertains Heavenly Lord forces!”

Inside a tavern, discussions were incessant. Some talked about famous performers in the city, while others discussed the recently appeared extraterrestrial evil demons.

“I heard! I don't know what the Five Great Divine Sects are thinking, to actually allow extraterrestrial evil demons to observe the ceremony!”

A young man's words carried a hint of dissatisfaction.

“Hush! Are you trying to die?”

The person next to him quickly covered his mouth.

The young man's face turned pale with fright, and he quickly knelt down towards the four directions of heaven and earth, begging for forgiveness. After doing all this, he left dejectedly without bothering to finish his drink.

The Five Great Divine Sects were deeply rooted in the Tianyang World, holding a transcendent status. The young man's words could be said to be questioning the Five Great Divine Sects.

Xu Qing watched this scene from upstairs, his expression calm.

He hadn't expected the Five Sects to actually allow beings from the Eternal Realm to observe the ceremony, and that they had even invited the Wuqian Empire.

“What do the Five Sects want to do?”

Xu Qing was somewhat puzzled; of course, this was because he did not know the content of their negotiations.

Time quickly arrived three days later.

On this day, the Tianyang City was bustling with crowds, and countless beings headed towards the mountainside. Although they could not enter the Tianyang Temple on the mountainside, they could observe the ceremony from outside.

And those beings who could participate in the Tianyang Assembly, as well as the Eternal side, led by the Five Sect Divine Envoys, rode a seven-colored divine rainbow into the Heavenly Sun Dao Field of the Tianyang Temple.

All around this place were spectator seats, and on the central high platform was a nine-zhang high platform. Five Sect divine flags were Insert around the high platform, and hundreds of Five Sect Disciples guarded the high platform. The Cultivation of these people was all at the Perfection of the Sacred Sovereign Realm, and in addition, there were more than ten Peerless Quasi-Emperor giants guarding it.

Xu Qing did not mix in with the crowd but used the Nine-Step Palanquin to hide in the Void Realm.

On the entire mountainside, there were over ten million beings, yet during this time, no one made a single sound, no one showed a hint of impatience, and even when speaking, they communicated through Divine Thought!

“Old Zhi, what kind of person do you think this Tianyang Great God is? Is he a Great Emperor!”

In the Eternal Realm spectator stands, someone asked Murong Zhi.

“Probably not! The Eternal Continent is the origin of myriad great worlds. Even the Eternal Continent has not given birth to a Great Emperor, let alone this world!”

Although Murong Zhi was shocked by the power of the Tianyang World, he was also aware of its limitations and that it was impossible for a Great Emperor to be born there.

If Great Emperors were so easy to be born, there wouldn't have been dozens of consecutive Emperor-fall eras.

It wasn't until two hours before noon that a powerful expert at the Perfection of the Quasi-Emperor Realm landed on the high platform, then made a welcoming gesture towards the east.

“Welcome the Five Ancestors!”

“Welcome the Five Ancestors!”

...The sound, like a tidal wave, shook heaven and earth. At this moment, all beings in the Tianyang World bowed towards the east!

“Boom!”

Heaven and earth rumbled, with various Martial Dao auras. An ancient figure, enveloped in Power Of Faith, slowly came from the east and landed on the high platform!

【Demon Ancestor: His main body is the peak Great Emperor's body of the ancient Flame Demon Race. He was enlightened by Tianyang Great God, gained sentience, and thus embarked on Cultivation. His Cultivation is that of a Peerless Quasi-Emperor. His sacred soul is entrusted to the Heavenly Dao, thereby achieving Eternal life!】

【Note: His main body is an Emperor's body, so his combat power far surpasses other Peerless Quasi-Emperors. He is among the strongest under the Great Emperor. In the Tianyang World, he can utilize the Power Of Heavenly Dao, and his combat power is not weaker than a peak Great Emperor who controls two-tenths of the Power Of Dao!】

【Demon Ancestor: His main body is the peak Great Emperor's body of the ancient Nine Nether Heavenly Underworld Python Race... Peerless Quasi-Emperor... In the Tianyang World, his combat power is not weaker than a peak Great Emperor who controls two-tenths of the Power Of Dao!】

【Blade Ancestor: His main body is the peak Great Emperor's body of the ancient Blade Worm Race... Peerless Quasi-Emperor... In the Tianyang World, his combat power is not weaker than a peak Great Emperor who controls two-tenths of the Power Of Dao!】

【Heaven Ancestor: His main body is the peak Great Emperor's body of the ancient Double-Eyed Race... Peerless Quasi-Emperor... In the Tianyang World, his combat power is not weaker than a peak Great Emperor who controls two-tenths of the Power Of Dao!】

【Human Ancestor: Wen Tingxian, Peerless Quasi-Emperor. After achieving the Perfection of the Quasi-Emperor Realm as a native Human Race in the Tianyang World, he received a divine method from Tianyang Great God and founded the Heavenly Human Divine Sect. In the Tianyang World, his combat power is not weaker than an ordinary Great Emperor! Note: He is hypocritical and sinister, coveting the host's heaven monitoring mirror!】

When Xu Qing saw the end, his eyes immediately narrowed into a slit, and he couldn't help but size up Human Ancestor.

What excellent soul material and Cultivation crystallization!

If he dares to target him, then it's one altar in the east, one pool in the west!

Hmm! The bones go into the Myriad Spirits Altar in the East Hall, and the sacred soul goes into the Primordial Heavenly Pool in the West Hall!

On the high platform, Human Ancestor subconsciously felt a chill and couldn't help but frown, activating the Power Of Heavenly Dao to deduce, but found nothing.

Soon, he had to preside over the upcoming ceremony, so he could only make a note of this matter.

“Wash the body with the sun, refine the form with the moon, Immortals lift, jade maidens follow...”

After the Five Ancestors ascended the high platform, they all recited the Cleansing Sutra once, purifying their bodies to be able to summon divine spirits with a pure body.

Then, Demon Ancestor spoke to all beings about the deeds of Tianyang Great God, after which the Five Ancestors each recounted the Five Sects' enlightenment and contributions to the Tianyang World over the past million years to the peak of the Divine Mountain.

Following that were various other intricate rituals!

By the time it was noon, when the golden disc in the sky was vertically aligned with the earth, the Five Ancestors all knelt down, and all the beings from the Tianyang World participating in the assembly also knelt down simultaneously.
