A flash of mysterious light passed over Di Jun's body.
The aura around him immediately withdrew.
Di Jun did not choose to break through on the spot. He had grander plans, so naturally, he needed time to reflect properly rather than rush into a breakthrough like this...
Once the Heavenly Dao phenomenon faded!
The Demon Clan's River of Fortune vanished, and the Hetu Luoshu also flew back into Di Jun's body. Only then did he smile and cup his hands toward everyone.
"Many thanks, fellow Daoists!"
"I am deeply grateful that you came to witness this today..."
Some nodded in response, while others spoke in agreement with Di Jun. For a time, the atmosphere was exceedingly harmonious...
Di Jun then extended another invitation.
He wished to hold a banquet for everyone, discuss the Dao together, and celebrate... But rather than inviting them to the newly born Heavenly Court, he invited them back to the Golden Palace from before!
The Heavenly Court had only just been born.
Di Jun had not yet completely taken control of it.
If he invited all these great cultivators there now, would that not allow them to probe its true state? That would be foolish, would it not?
Naturally, Di Jun was unwilling.
The great cultivators who had originally been tempted and were immensely curious about the Heavenly Court immediately lost interest upon hearing that they were returning to that palace forged from Sun Gold Essence...
Many people promptly took their leave!
Taiqing was the first to speak.
"The Dao Ancestor's third sermon is imminent. We should return and make preparations first. There will be opportunities in the future to discuss the Dao with you, fellow Daoist..."
With a slight cupped-hand salute, he turned and left.
Yuanshi naturally followed behind him. Tongtian, however, had flickering eyes.
