The congratulatory gifts piled up like a mountain, colorful and dazzling, resembling a night sky shimmering with a myriad of stars.
Each of these gifts radiated a unique luster and aura, as if imbued with the profound friendship and blessings of the Immortal Kings from various races.
They represented not only the high esteem the Immortal Kings held for Su Li, but also their immense recognition of his strength and potential.
Among them, a magical artifact gifted by Immortal King Green Lotus, forged from nine-colored immortal gold, was particularly eye-catching.
This artifact shone with a brilliant radiance, as if it had gathered the very essence of heaven and earth, allowing anyone who laid eyes upon it to sense its formidable power.
Intricate runes were carved upon the artifact, every stroke revealing endless mystery and power, as if it contained the most enigmatic laws of the universe.
The appearance of this artifact left all the Immortal Kings present in awe, with many declaring it one of the most precious treasures they had ever seen.
Li Sword!
Immortal King Green Lotus personally named it.
The gift from the Immortal Monk King was a spiritual herb, which emitted a faint fragrance that refreshed the mind and spirit.
This spiritual herb contained endless vitality, as if it possessed the power to bring the dead back to life, leaving everyone astonished.
Its leaves were a translucent, crystalline emerald green, seemingly brimming with infinite life force, while its flowers were even more breathtaking—vibrant and colorful, like a masterpiece of art.
The appearance of this spiritual herb moved all the Immortal Kings present, and they all agreed it was one of the most precious spiritual herbs they had ever encountered.
In addition to these rare gifts, there were also ancient books and rare manuscripts presented as offerings.
These ancient texts recorded the mysteries and wisdom of the Great Dao; every page held infinite secrets, and their archaic, elegant calligraphy seemed to contain the accumulation of time and the crystallization of wisdom. Flipping through these books felt like traveling through time and space to glimpse the profound depths of the Great Dao.
As the curtain rose on the banquet, exquisite dishes and fine wines were presented to the guests like a scene from a poem or painting.
These dishes were not only a feast for the eyes and palate, but also incorporated the unique flavors and characteristics of the Primal Ancient Realm, making it a true banquet for the senses.
The first to catch the eye were the dishes featuring immortal fruits as the main ingredient. These fruits were brightly colored and crystalline, appearing as treasures bestowed by nature itself.
They were artfully arranged, presenting a dazzling array of colors, and with every bite, one could taste the freshness and sweetness of the immortal fruits, as if savoring the very essence of heaven and earth.
Another dish was meticulously prepared from the meat of immortal beasts.
The meat of these immortal beasts was tender and fragrant, enough to make one's mouth water. Through masterful culinary techniques, the meat was cooked to perfection, retaining its natural succulence while gaining a unique, savory aroma.
Every bite revealed the delicate texture and rich flavor of the beast meat, as if one were tasting the wildness and power of the Primal Ancient Realm.
The fine wine was truly nectar, smooth and sweet upon the palate, leaving one intoxicated.
These wines had been aged for a long time and blended with great care; every drop contained a rich aroma and a unique mouthfeel. As the guests raised their cups to drink, enjoying the pleasure and relaxation brought by the wine, they seemed to forget the troubles and shackles of the mortal world.
At the banquet, the laughter of the guests and the enthusiastic atmosphere infected the entire estate.
They toasted one another with blessings, sharing stories and joy.
In this moment, everyone forgot their status and rank, immersing themselves solely in the celebration and well-wishes. Their laughter and conversation wove together, filling the entire estate with a warm and joyful ambiance.
Just as the lingering echoes of the banquet's climax resonated in the air, the entire Primal Ancient Realm was shrouded in an unusual atmosphere.
Suddenly, the sky was filled with emerald-green, crystalline willow leaves dancing like green sprites. Each leaf radiated a mysterious and powerful force, fluttering in the air as if performing a grand dance.
At the same time, sturdy and powerful willow branches descended from the sky. They seemed to possess a life of their own, twisting and turning, covering the entire sky in a canopy of emerald green.
These willow branches emitted waves of powerful aura, imposing an indescribable sense of pressure upon everyone.
"Why is the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit reacting so violently?" Inside the main hall, an Immortal King frowned, his face full of confusion.
"Did the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit not depart for the Boundary Sea to explore the dark lands?"
Like the other Immortal Kings, this was his first time witnessing such a violent reaction from the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit.
The Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit of the Primal Ancient Realm was a towering willow tree.
This willow was tall and straight, with a thick trunk and lush foliage, appearing as a majestic and mysterious entity.
Its status and strength within the Primal Ancient Realm were supreme, on par with giants like Immortal King Wuzhong. The Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit not only represented the glory of the Primal Ancient Realm but also guarded the peace and stability of the entire realm.
Yet, at this moment, the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit was reacting with such intensity that everyone was shocked and bewildered.
They looked up at the sky, trying to find the cause of the spirit's reaction, and just then, they saw a figure slowly descending from the heavens—it was Su Li.
Su Li stood in mid-air, one with heaven and earth, as if he were the very center of this realm.
A powerful aura of a True Immortal radiated from him, surging like a violent storm, making it impossible for anyone to ignore his presence.
His gaze was firm and profound, as if he could pierce through all illusions and reach the source of truth.
At that moment, Su Li swept his Immortal Emperor divine sense across the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit.
His divine sense, like an invisible blade, instantly pierced through the spirit's defenses and reached its core. With this single sweep, Su Li immediately understood the cause and effect, realizing why the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit was reacting so violently.
When Su Li's divine sense met the gaze of the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit, the spirit seemed to suffer an unprecedented impact.
Its form stalled, as if time had frozen in that instant. Its soul seemed to be ripped from its body, its form shackled in place by an invisible force, unable to move.
The inner world of the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit was swept by a storm; shock and fear intertwined to form an indescribable force.
Its soul felt as if it were being tightly gripped by an invisible hand, unable to break free. It felt the gaze coming from Su Li—a gaze as deep as the sea and as vast as the stars—and felt completely exposed, as if every secret had been laid bare in a single glance.
Is this the True Immortal realm? the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit exclaimed in its heart. A single glance could make a giant Immortal King feel fear and helplessness?
It had seen countless powerhouses in its time, but never had anyone brought such intense pressure upon it. That profound gaze seemed capable of seeing through all its secrets, leaving it nowhere to hide.
"Why has the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit descended?"
Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation used his Immortal King power to shield Su Li while communicating with the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit.
