Dengxian Peak, belonging to the core area of Daro Holy Land, was quiet and peaceful. However, the non-core areas were bustling with activity.
Since a few days ago, forces had been arriving at Daro Holy Land one after another. Daro Holy Land, as the host, arranged accommodation for them.
Although many forces came, Daro Holy Land was vast. Moreover, some places were protected by spatial barriers. From the outside, they appeared as small peaks, but inside, they were small worlds. Therefore, Daro Holy Land could fully accommodate all the forces.
Of course, only the truly powerful forces were allowed to stay within Daro Holy Land.
The minimum requirement was a force with a Saint King Realm cultivator.
As for weaker forces, they could only stay outside Daro Holy Land or wait in Daro City. As a result, Daro City was unprecedentedly bustling. Countless flying boats and warships crisscrossed the sky. Outside Daro City, various beasts were used as mounts and carriages. There were countless examples of dragons pulling chariots and giant turtles carrying ships.
Powerful auras swept across the heavens and earth, intimidating the surroundings and making countless people tremble with fear.
They were all waiting for the day the ceremony began.
After a night, the sun rose, and purple qi filled the east for thirty million miles.
DANG————
DANG————
DANG————
Six deep and heavy bell tolls echoed from the depths of the Holy Land, spreading throughout every corner. Then, they traveled beyond the Holy Land and resounded around it, reaching the outskirts of Daro City. The bell tolls, as if imbued with some power, weren't deafening, yet they propagated incredibly far.
"It's starting, it's starting!"
"The Daro Holy Land Saint Son Consignment Ceremony has begun!"
"The previous Saint Son didn't live past a hundred years before he perished. I wonder if this one..."
"Shh, be careful what you say!"
"It's a pity, we are of low status and cannot enter the Holy Land to catch a glimpse of the Saint Son's appearance!"
"By the way, what is the origin of this Saint Son?"
"I don't know. I heard that the Heavenly Secrets Holy Land tried to investigate, but they couldn't find anything. Perhaps he's from some hidden Imperial Clan."
...
The surroundings of Daro City immediately erupted in commotion.
At this moment, within Daro Holy Land.
"It's finally begun! I was about to die of boredom. I thought I arrived early and could take a look at the Daro Saint Son, but they wouldn't let me into the core area. The Daro Saint Son also doesn't go out and about, so I can't see him at all. They say the Daro Saint Son's temperament is like a fairy, handsome and extraordinary. I wonder if it's true. Ah, I can't bear the itching in my heart!"
"It must be fake. There can't be anyone more handsome than me!"
"Daro Saint Son Chu Yuan, 74th on the Latent Dragon Ranking, hopefully, you won't disappoint me, Jiang Minghan. I came here specially for you."
...
Many young geniuses couldn't wait any longer.
Some were eager to try.
Some were filled with anticipation.
Some kept silent and acted like masters.
The leaders of the various forces, however, all looked towards the depths of Daro Holy Land. Their eyes were filled with intense shock. They could feel several blurry figures emanating terrifying auras. One aura, in particular, gave them an ominous feeling of imminent death.
They would die!
And it felt like the kind of death where they would be instantly killed!
Holy Land Ancestor, Ultimate Dao Divine Weapon!
These two terms made them tremble and their pupils contract.
No…
This… Is it necessary?
Isn't it just a Saint Son Consignment Ceremony?
Is this level of formality really needed?
The Holy Land Ancestor sits there with an Ultimate Dao Divine Weapon. Isn't that usually reserved for when the Holy Land Master ascends?
What is this about?
Are they going to suddenly attack them?
"This is a bit too much, isn't it?" The Supreme Elder of the Primordial Holy Land, a Saint Realm peak cultivator, said with some embarrassment.
"He cultivated for only six years and reached the Void God Realm Early Stage. He also possesses the combat power of a Heavenly God Realm. If you were in our position, wouldn't you take it seriously?" The Supreme Elder of the Great Ether Holy Land retorted.
"Indeed, if he had cultivated since childhood, he would probably have already reached the True God Realm. His ranking on the Latent Dragon Ranking could have reached the top twenty! Such an existence, we must admit, currently, his talent surpasses our clan's young master!" An elder with his hands behind his back said.
Not far away, another elder interjected, "Rarely do you find someone that makes the Gu Clan admire. Tsk tsk, you've really opened my eyes."
"It's just a fact. The Gu Clan is still capable of seeing clearly," the Gu Clan Supreme Elder said calmly.
...
"Everyone, come with me to the Holy Land Plaza!"
The elders of Daro Holy Land came to guide them.
The Saint Son Consignment Ceremony was held in the Holy Land Plaza. It was very spacious and had been decorated luxuriously. Surrounding the plaza were floating Divine Islands. On the islands, there were arranged seats, various delicacies, and fine wines. Everything was in abundance.
Of course.
These major forces wouldn't come empty-handed.
"Primordial Holy Land, presents one Holy Weapon, five Saint Medicines, one hundred billion high-grade spirit stones, three thousand kilograms of Origin…"
"Imperial Clan Ancient Clan, presents…"
"Imperial Clan Ji Clan…"
"Chaos Holy Land…"
"Yaochi Heavenly Palace…"
"Great Xia Imperial Dynasty…"
…
A series of voices rang out. Just the gifts from any of these forces were more valuable than the resources of a clan with a Saint King Realm cultivator.
Those staying within Daro Holy Land presented their gifts first. After they finished, the Holy Land opened its doors, and countless forces flooded in, bringing more gifts.
Those who weren't Saint-level forces didn't qualify to enter Daro Holy Land.
After each force presented their gifts, they went to their designated Divine Islands to take their seats.
The Holy Land had prepared corresponding seats for every force.
Then, the Daro Holy Land Master appeared, and he began his opening remarks. It would take at least half an hour.
After the opening remarks, the Saint Son would enter.
At this very moment.
Dengxian Peak.
Chu Yuan suddenly remembered something.
He was going to be a Saint Son. Did his Master know?
"Master, I'm going to be a Saint Son. The Consignment Ceremony is today. Won't you come back to take a look?" Chu Yuan sent a transmission to Tao Yao.
"Being a Saint Son is too small-scale. I won't come back. When you become a Saint Master one day, I might be interested in taking a look," Tao Yao replied.
Chu Yuan: "..."
He felt a bit down.
"However, I've prepared some mysterious gifts for you. I think you'll like them," Tao Yao added.
"Mysterious gifts?" Chu Yuan became interested. "What are they?"
Tao Yao: "If they're mysterious gifts, do you think I'd tell you beforehand?"
Chu Yuan: "Alright, alright. I'm looking forward to them."
"Saint Son, get ready. It's almost your turn to appear."
There were currently two people on Dengxian Peak.
One was Chu Yuan, and the other was a Supreme Elder of the Holy Land, and a very powerful one at that.
As for Luo Li and Bai Jin, they had already gone to the Holy Land Plaza.
