Ten Thousand Immortals Come to Court, Saintly Orthodoxy

In the Primordial World, time is not recorded, and the years pass like a white horse galloping past a crevice. It is unknown how much time has elapsed.

The East Sea is boundless, with billions of acres of surging waves.

On this day, a verdant stream of light crossed the endless void, tore through layers of sea mist, and slowly came to a halt.

The light dissipated, revealing a figure dressed in a cyan robe with an elegant and handsome face; it was none other than Xuan Liu.

Xuan Liu gazed intently, only to see in the center of the sea ahead, a vast immortal island so enormous that its size could not be measured, lying prone.

It resembled an ancient Golden Ao waking from the chaos, carrying thousands of universes and mountains upon its back.

That was the saintly orthodoxy renowned throughout the Primordial World, the location of the Interception Sect's Golden Ao Island!

Looking into the distance, the place was steaming with immortal energy, and the endless spiritual energy condensed into nearly viscous immortal mist, shrouding the vast territory.

Above the island, ten thousand rays of rosy light and a thousand streaks of auspicious color shone.

Vaguely, bursts of ethereal and profound Dao sounds drifted slowly from the deepest part of the immortal island, rippling through the four seas and the cosmos.

Every jade pavilion and palace, every immortal peak and divine waterfall, flowed with supreme Dao charm, profound and extraordinary.

And in the void surrounding Golden Ao Island, the scene was terrifying to the extreme.

As far as the eye could see, countless powerful streaks of light blocked the sky and covered the sun, densely packed and intertwined like the sands of the Ganges.

Some were massive, strange beasts of the Primordial World, while others were loose immortals from the East Sea who had not long since taken human form.

There were also ancient races who had traveled billions of miles from all corners of the Primordial World.

Ten thousand immortals come to court!

This was the supreme momentum of the Interception Sect at its most prosperous and glorious peak!

Looking across the entire Primordial World, apart from the Interception Sect of the Saint Tongtian, no other force or orthodoxy could possess such earth-shattering majesty.

Hiss! This Golden Ao Island is truly worthy of being the seat of a saintly orthodoxy. Watching such a vast and magnificent scene, Xuan Liu could not help but sigh in sincere admiration.

Immediately, Xuan Liu quickly lowered his cloud.

He arrived inside Golden Ao Island, upon the endless Immortal Jade Plaza.

The place was filled with Primordial creatures.

A rough glance revealed an uncountable number; most of these creatures were at the True Immortal or Profound Immortal realms, and there was no shortage of powerful Daluo Golden Immortals either.

At this moment, these Primordial creatures were all sitting obediently on the plaza, their eyes fixed on the depths of Golden Ao Island with fanaticism and awe.

Without a doubt, they had all come to Golden Ao Island to seek the supreme Dao, hoping to be accepted as disciples under the saint.

Xuan Liu stood among the crowd of creatures, his divine sense clear and his expression calm, waiting quietly for the opportunity to arrive.

"Hum!"

At a certain moment, a grand immortal sound suddenly resounded.

The nodes of the void rippled with tides, and the Dao charm roared.

The next moment, under the gaze of countless Primordial creatures whose eyes were burning with extreme fervor, the void slowly split open a huge gap.

Four rays of brilliant, indestructible divine light emerged from within.

The person in the lead wore a bright yellow, luxurious Daoist robe. He had the appearance of a wealthy man, a full forehead, and Dao charm seemed to ebb and flow around him.

The aura he exuded was incomparably powerful, and a golden wheel of merit rotated behind his head.

It was the chief personal disciple under the Saint Tongtian, the Duobao Daoist!

And at the side of the Duobao Daoist, half a step behind, stood three graceful and peerless female immortals.

One was draped in a dharma robe woven from starlight, heroic and spirited; as her beautiful eyes opened and closed, scenes of endless stars being born and destroyed evolved. She was the Golden Spirit Holy Mother.

One had a temperament as cold as snow, dressed in a plain white Daoist robe, with laws flowing ceaselessly around her; this was the Unyielding Holy Mother.

The last one had a delicate face, yet carried a hint of heaviness and a wild, ancient aura; she was the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother.

The four personal disciples of the Interception Sect!

All present!

With the appearance of these four, a terrifying Dao intent capable of suppressing the four corners of the world swept across the heavens and the earth.

These four personal disciples of the Interception Sect were all, without exception, Daluo Golden Immortals!

Daluo Golden Immortals, transcending the long river of time.

The emergence of such a powerful lineup caused the countless Primordial creatures on the entire Immortal Jade Plaza to straighten their expressions.

They hurriedly lowered their heads from afar, lest they offend the supreme majesty of the saint's disciples.

"We pay our respects to the Immortals!"

In an instant, ten thousand immortals bowed and shouted in unison, the grand sound echoing over Golden Ao Island for a long time.

"My goodness! Is this the foundation of the Interception Sect? And this is only during the Lich Tribulation period; all four personal disciples have actually broken through to the Daluo Golden Immortal realm." Xuan Liu gasped, speaking in disbelief.

In the Primordial novels of his past life, there was often the saying that Golden Immortals were as common as dogs, and Daluo Golden Immortals walked everywhere.

In reality, that was not the case; during the era of the Lich Tribulation, the value of a Daluo Golden Immortal remained quite high.

After all, the three hundred and sixty-five Demon Gods of the Demon Race Heavenly Court were all, without exception, Daluo Golden Immortals.

The many Great Witches of the Witch Race were likewise at this realm.

"The Sage has decreed that while the fundamental intent of the Interception Sect is to provide education for all without discrimination, seeking to snatch a glimmer of survival for all living beings in the Primordial World,"

Duobao Daoist stood with his hands behind his back, looking down from above at the many seekers of the Dao below, and spoke eloquently, "Yet, as the Sage leads the Profound Sect, the orthodoxy of the Interception Sect is not a place without thresholds that harbors filth and evil."

"Therefore, some simple tests still exist."

Following this, Duobao Daoist raised his hand and swept his sleeve with extreme ease.

"Rumble!"

Suddenly, a massive, thunderous roar resounded from the void.

The next moment, the Supreme Clarity Immortal Light, brilliant to the extreme, erupted suddenly.

A pitch-black Dao Stele, ten thousand feet tall and radiating obscure Dao rhymes and an ancient aura of destruction, condensed out of thin air.

That pitch-black Dao Stele slammed steadily into the very center of the Immortal Jade Plaza.

Waves of Supreme Clarity Dao rhymes surged from the stele, causing the surrounding void to twist incessantly.

Countless living beings looked over in unison, and merely glancing at it made their primordial spirits ache.

It seemed to contain the supreme immortal arts that exhausted the laws of existence.

Pointing to this pitch-black Dao Stele, Duobao Daoist calmly announced, "Upon this stele is the Grand Compendium of the Supreme Clarity Immortal Arts left personally by the Sage, and it is also the test for our Interception Sect's recruitment this time."

"All who come here to seek the Dao may contemplate this Dao Stele."

"Those who can fully master the entry-level within one hundred thousand years may become outer sect disciples of my Interception Sect, enjoying the luck, resources, and more of the Sage's orthodoxy!"

Outer sect disciples!

Hearing these words, the countless living beings of the Primordial World saw their breathing grow heavy, their eyes filled with irrepressible ecstasy.

As long as one became an outer sect disciple, one was considered a part of the Sage's orthodoxy.

Not only could they cultivate the marvelous Supreme Clarity arts, but their status within the Primordial World would also undergo a earth-shaking transformation.

Their own path to the Dao would receive a tremendous guarantee.

It was no exaggeration to say that this was something countless living beings of the Primordial World dreamed of.
