Banquet of Immortals, Meeting Nuwa Again
Cihang rebuilt Mount Luojia in the South Continent, and with the addition of the Phoenix Clan, Mount Luojia not only did not decline, but became even stronger.
"Fellow Daoists, Mount Luojia has been rebuilt. Let us now enjoy the fruits and discuss the Dao!"
With a wave of his hand, Cihang summoned countless rare treasures, which transformed into palaces under the Dao fire, landing in Mount Luojia in a mysterious formation.
Beside the main vein's Creation Divine Hall, five more top-grade Innate Spiritual Root have appeared.
Instead of taking other spiritual roots from the Glass Realm, Cihang used these Five-Needle Pine to suppress the fortune of Mount Luojia and gather the innate five elements.
With this spiritual root present, the spiritual energy of Mount Luojia will continue to accumulate.
Moreover, this Innate Five-Needle Pine is a spiritual root of the five elements, which is more suitable for the cultivation of the Five-Colored Human Race.
"Is this Innate Five-Needle Pine?"
Upon seeing the five spiritual roots, Houtu and the others all showed expressions of surprise.
Although those present were all top-tier experts from the Primordial World, even among them, the spiritual roots they possessed were extremely rare.
Not to mention a top-grade Innate Spiritual Root.
"That's right, it's Five-Needle Pine."
It's a pity that the Five-Needle Pine suffered a calamity in the beginning, and its origin split into five top-grade spiritual roots.
Even though I've had this spiritual root for a long time, I still can't restore it to its original state!
Cihang couldn't help but show a hint of regret.
With the Creation Cauldron present, Cihang has the ability to fuse these five spiritual roots that are of the same origin, but he will find it difficult to restore their grade.
It's easy for a top-grade spiritual root to differentiate and downgrade, but it's not so simple to recover.
"It is indeed a pity, but with your cultivation level, it's only a matter of time before the Five-Needle Pine recovers!"
Houtu looked at the spiritual root and sighed.
"Houtu Daoist Houtu is right, you will definitely succeed."
"And when your spiritual roots bear fruit, don't forget about us!"
Zhenyuanzi also echoed with a smile.
"Of course I will not forget you fellow Daoists."
While the recovery of top-grade spiritual roots is a long way off, there is no shortage of high-grade spiritual fruits, which you may all enjoy.
Although it's no different from your cultivation practices, it has its own unique flavor!
Cihang waved his hand and took down all the spiritual fruits, inviting Houtu and the others to enter the main hall together.
Outside the main hall, Feather Spirit led her disciples to make arrangements to entertain the cultivators who had shown goodwill towards the Mount Luojia lineage.
Although there are no Innate Spiritual Fruit, they are all extremely precious spiritual items.
Despite its continued development in the South Continent, the Five-Colored Divine Kingdom still possesses considerable resources.
Inside the Creation Divine Hall, everyone took their seats in turn. Apart from Cihang's Innate Five-Needle Pine, the others each took out many rare and precious items.
Instead of immediately beginning their discussion, the group savored the spiritual fruits while recounting their respective experiences.
After Cihang became the ruler of the South Continent, this debate was no longer so simple.
Not long after the group sat down, cultivators began to descend upon Mount Luojia.
These cultivators came to congratulate Cihang on his return to the Primordial World and to congratulate him on becoming the ruler of the South Continent.
Mount Luojia declined after Cihang left, but flourished again after Cihang returned.
Moreover, after becoming the ruler of the South Continent, the Mount Luojia lineage became visibly more powerful.
In the eyes of many cultivators, Cihang, though not a saint, was comparable to one.
In their eyes, the ruler of a state was no different from a saint.
Moreover, Cihang's strength was not much weaker than that of a saint, and he had long since transcended the realm of ordinary cultivators.
Even the Haotian and the Queen Mother of the West personally came to offer their congratulations on behalf of the Heavenly Court.
As soon as the Queen Mother of the West arrived, she apologized to Cihang, feeling extremely guilty for not intervening in time.
Given her relationship with Cihang, she shouldn't have stayed out of it.
But now she is not only the Queen Mother of the West, but also the ruler of the Heavenly Court, representing the Heavenly Court.
Cihang was unconcerned about this and fully understood the Queen Mother of the West's situation.
Although these cultivators did not take action when the divine kingdom was in distress, they did not target it either.
Cihang didn't take it to heart, because he knew that seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune was the norm.
As many cultivators gathered, Mount Luojia became increasingly lively, with constant sounds of congratulations.
Many cultivators even harbored the idea of joining Mount Luojia.
This is comparable to Great Teachings of the Saints institution.
Finally, even Mount Sumeru and the Sanqing Ones came with congratulatory gifts.
The Sanqing, in particular, prepared lavish gifts.
Although the Sanqing were furious that Cihang had once again ruined their plans, Cihang's return was now a reality.
Until they are absolutely certain of suppressing Cihang, they must maintain a semblance of courtesy.
Cihang did not make things difficult for the disciples of the Three Teachings, because it was pointless.
The Sanqing couldn't really do anything to him at this moment, and he was in the same boat; it was merely a compromise between them.
But once they really seize the opportunity, no one will hold back.
After the disciples of the Three Teachings had all arrived, Cihang ascended the Dao platform and began to preach to the immortals and gods.
This was both to give back to these immortals and gods, and to demonstrate their own strength and resources.
As soon as Cihang spoke, boundless Daoist energy manifested, and lotus flowers bloomed, displaying the wonders of life and creation.
Regardless of their motives, they all became immersed in the Great Dao.
This was the largest sermon Cihang had ever given since he began his cultivation, and it brought together almost all the powerful figures of the Primordial World.
It was at this time that many cultivators realized the gap between themselves and Cihang.
Cihang is not only strong, but also in his understanding and mastery of the Dao, he is no less than a sage.
Because cultivators practice different paths, it is difficult to compare their levels of cultivation.
However, the path that Cihang cultivates is the creation of life, which is very similar to Nuwa's Dao of Creation.
The powerful figures present had all heard Nuwa preach.
Although the two are different, they are almost identical in their profound understanding of the Dao.
The cultivators who were initially jealous and resentful now felt nothing but admiration for Cihang.
Even the disciples of the sages showed expressions of surprise.
When Cihang's Daoist chanting ceased, all the cultivators showed expressions of lingering satisfaction.
However, Cihang did not continue, but instead invited Houtu Zhenyuanzi and others to share their own paths.
He never forgot that this gathering was originally intended for mutual discussion.
It was only because he became the ruler of the South Continent that this evolved into a banquet for the immortals.
Although many cultivators had regrets, they quickly immersed themselves in the Great Dao once again.
The Path of Cihang is indeed powerful, but Houtu Zhenyuanzi and others are not inferior either.
Even Yuanfeng's Path of Life and Death Nirvana greatly enhanced the understanding of many cultivators.
Although Cihang only preached for a thousand years, with the addition of Houtu and others, this banquet of immortals lasted for tens of thousands of years.
When they left Mount Luojia, they had all gained a great deal.
After Cihang bid farewell to many old friends, Nuwa appeared on Mount Luojia.
"Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on becoming the Lord of the South Continent."
"Now, fellow Daoist, you are not a saint, yet you are better than a saint!"
As soon as Nuwa appeared, she greeted Cihang with a smile and offered her congratulations.
"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me. Cihang's cultivation has improved somewhat, but I have yet to take that step, so how can I be said to be superior to a sage?"
If that were true, they wouldn't have been forced to leave the Primordial World!
Those who do not attain enlightenment will remain mere ants, unable to endure for long!
Cihang let out a long sigh.
All his schemes were aimed at attaining enlightenment, but now it seems that the day of enlightenment is still far away.
