Chapter 689: Gathering of Noble Geniuses! (4K)
The arrival of team after team from the Holy Lands marked the presence of significant figures like Youran True Sovereign, Diwei True Sovereign, and Long Tianyu.
Youran True Sovereign, with an angelic aura and Dao Bone, was surrounded by a rainbow of auspicious clouds.
Diwei True Sovereign rode a blue ox, which even had a nose ring.
This blue ox was actually a Great Demon of the Divine King Realm.
A Great Demon of the Divine King Realm willingly becoming a mount sufficiently demonstrated Diwei True Sovereign's strength and wealth.
Long Tianyu led the members of the Ancient Dragon Clan, parading with the grandeur of dragons and tigers as they entered the gates of Mount Taihua Sacred Land.
The Ancient Dragon Clan possessed both human and Dragon Clan bloodlines. To preserve the bloodline, the number of clan members was sparse, but each member was a martial arts prodigy.
"Isn't this Sword Saint Chen from Changliu Mountain? I thought you old codger had died."
Diwei True Sovereign from Buzhou Mountain squinted his eyes, recognizing an Old Sword Saint from Changliu Holy Land.
The Old Sword Saint retorted grumpily, "Since you haven't died, why would I fall so easily?"
Diwei True Sovereign then asked Long Tianyu, "Long Tianyu, to which revolution have you cultivated your 'Nine Revolutions Heavenly Worm Art'?"
Long Tianyu glanced at his sharp claws and bared his fangs, "Diwei True Sovereign, the cultivation technique I created is named 'Nine Revolutions Heavenly Dragon Art', not the 'Nine Revolutions Heavenly Worm Art'. You are as cheeky as ever. If not for giving Mount Taihua Sacred Land some face, I would act now."
The surrounding Sect Leaders and Elders looked at each other in dismay.
They couldn't interject into the conversations between these Great Experts at all.
Moreover, the first batch of arriving Great Experts numbered almost ten people for this coronation ceremony!
Normally, Great Experts are as elusive as dragons, but now they converged at Mount Taihua Sacred Land, a scale only second to the Heavenly Court's grand meeting.
"Sword Saint Chen, Youran True Sovereign, Diwei True Sovereign, Long Tianyu... All are significant figures of their time. Lu Changsheng has truly extensive connections."
Even the Yaochi Saint Mother was surprised by the arrival of these Great Experts.
It should be noted that Lu Changsheng was merely at the Divine King Realm, yet so many Great Experts came to celebrate, which was truly unprecedented.
As representatives from Cloud Mountain Holy Land, Buzhou Holy Land, and the Ancient Dragon Clan arrived, representatives from Qingqiu, Leize, and the Primordial Sacred Land also came one after another.
The Taichu Saint led elders like Sword Saint Wuji, Banished Sword Immortal, and disciples from the Primordial Sacred Land to attend, attracting numerous glances.
Primordial Sacred Land, one of the strongest Holy Lands.
The Taichu Saint's attendance was enough to illustrate Primordial Sacred Land's regard for the new Saint Lord.
"Suxin the Pill Saint from Lianshan Holy Land has also arrived!"
"She is reputed to be the youngest Pill Saint of Lianshan Holy Land. Numerous Holy Lands plead for her exceptional Immortal Pill crafting."
"Who would've thought Lianshan Holy Land would send Suxin the Pill Saint. Does Lianshan Holy Land also value Lu Changsheng this much?"
Not only sects large and small, but even some Holy Lands turned their heads at the arrival of Suxin the Pill Saint.
Lianshan Holy Land is the Holy Land of the pill industry, and Suxin Fairy being the youngest Pill Saint of Lianshan Holy Land, her potential is limitless.
Suxin the Pill Saint's attendance indicates some degree of relationship between Suxin the Pill Saint and Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng is merely a Divine King Realm expert, yet his network is wider than the outside world imagined.
"Has the Demon Race arrived as well?"
"Seems like it's the Lark Clan."
"Huh? Isn't the Lark Clan a small tribe in the Demon Realm? I recall the Lark Clan should be dependent on the Kui Phoenix Clan of the Demon Realm, how did they come to congratulate Lord Lu as well?"
The crowd's attention focused on the arriving Lark Clan team.
The Lark Clan's strength isn't strong; its overall power doesn't even surpass some human sects attached to Mount Taihua Sacred Land. In the Demon Realm, it's merely an ordinary small tribe, yet its arrival caused a stir equivalent to a Human Race Holy Land's presence.
This is a Demon Clan tribe coming to congratulate a Human Race Holy Land's Saint Lord, demonstrating the breadth of Lu Changsheng's connections.
The Lark Clan displayed a natural demeanor.
Everyone in the Lark Clan had benefited from Lu Changsheng, who brought them to the Immortal Realm, settled them in the territory of Mount Taihua Sacred Land, within a spiritual root endowed mountain range, gaining Mount Taihua Sacred Land's protection.
Now that Lu Changsheng ascended as the Taihua Saint Lord, the Lark Clan naturally came to celebrate.
"The Candle Dragon Clan has arrived!"
"In ancient times, the Candle Dragon Clan was a powerful Dragon Clan tribe. Even now, the Candle Dragon Clan's strength isn't weak."
After the Lark Clan's arrival, the old dragon Yan Feng from the Candle Dragon Clan led a group to offer congratulations.
The group from the Candle Dragon Clan was rather low-key.
The Candle Dragon Clan no longer held its former glory; amidst many Holy Lands, staying discreet was wise.
Suddenly, a team of Golden Armored Guards descended at the gates of Mount Taihua Sacred Land.
The many cultivators gathered at the gates were startled.
This Imperial Guard donned golden armor, causing them to think they were Heavenly Soldiers and Generals dispatched by the Heavenly Court.
The commander of the Imperial Guard clasped his hands, informing the disciple responsible for registration at Mount Taihua Sacred Land, "The Princess of the Immortal Dynasty and the Master from Ziyang Academy are about to arrive. We are the vanguard, informing in advance."
The disciple from Mount Taihua Sacred Land was stunned.
The fact that the Princess of the Immortal Dynasty personally attended the ceremony was astonishing!
Moreover, the Master from Ziyang Academy, considered a heavyweight!
The Nine Great Confucian Sects hold positions equivalent to the Nine Great Holy Lands, and the Master is a legendary figure in the Nine Great Confucian Sects!
Ziyang Academy, one of the Nine Great Confucian Sects, was founded by the Master!
Rumor has it that the Master possesses heaven-defying survival skills, capable of escaping unscathed even when besieged by several Dragon Kings.
Such a legendary figure personally attending the coronation ceremony of a junior is indeed shocking.
