In Qingwei Heaven's Golden Cloud Palace, the immortals had gathered, bustling about and displaying their immortal arts as they prepared to celebrate Divine Treasure Venerable's triumphant return. An air of peace and harmony filled the place.

"Karma Tribulation Envoy from Above—no, Karma Tribulation Immortal Lord—I failed to recognize Mount Tai before my eyes. I spoke without restraint in the past and offended you."
