After Li Qingyuan emerged from seclusion, Miao Le emerged as well.
This Dual Cultivation Ceremony was not only for Li Qingyuan and Luo Ling, but also for Miao Le.
They began making preparations.
Two and a half years passed in a flash, and the chosen auspicious day drew ever closer.
That day, airships from the Azure Profound Immortal Sect rose into the sky. The immortal ceremonial procession was a spectacle without precedent, with flying birds drawing carriages, walking beasts pulling imperial conveyances, and flood dragons bearing enormous ships on their backs.
A thousand carriages clustered together, ten thousand conveyances followed, flying birds gathered like clouds, and imperial carriages filled the heavens-dragon chariots and phoenix palanquins.
Across a hundred thousand li, Azure Profound Immortal Sect cultivators and the Body Integration and Void Refining living beings under their command gathered in vast numbers. Representatives came from every fief of the Mahayana Dao Venerables, Body Integration Spirit Lords, and Void Refining Dao Lords, and a group of elites was selected from their ranks.
Those selected could boast about it for the rest of their lives.
For they had joined the bridal procession of Dao Venerable Qingyuan, the Young Mistress of Azure Profound.
They were the elites among their peers in the Azure Profound Heaven Domain, and even the entire Azure Profound Realm.
Aside from Li Qingyuan, the bridegroom himself, there were no fewer than six Mahayana Dao Venerables, over twenty Half-step Mahayana cultivators, three hundred Body Integration Spirit Lords, three thousand Void Refining Dao Lords, and tens of thousands at the Soul Transformation Stage and Nascent Soul Realm responsible for miscellaneous duties.
Wu Mengzi, the procession's Grand Steward, had a cultivation at the Mahayana Peak and served as the operation's commander-in-chief.
"Bridal Ceremonial Guard, set out!" Wu Mengzi declared in a ringing voice.
