At that moment, something momentous was happening in the Heavenly Court!
After Hongjun ordered the Heavenly Court reopened, Haotian and Yaochi were appointed Jade Emperor and Queen Mother.
The importance Hongjun attached to this matter was plain to see.
He personally wielded his magic to transform the ruined Demon Celestial Court, giving it an entirely new appearance.
The Golden Throne Hall was fully restored.
Auspicious clouds gathered, and immortal cranes flew together.
Countless emerald clouds and rosy mists spread out in formation, forming a vast Heavenly Tribulation.
With another sweep of his hand, Hongjun bestowed two Flat Peach Orchards.
These Flat Peach Orchards were extraordinary, bearing flat peaches, one of the ten great primordial spiritual roots.
Each was divided into three sections: the front bore peaches that ripened in three thousand years, the middle in six thousand years, and the rear in nine thousand years.
The nine-thousand-year flat peaches, with their purple markings and small pits, were truly precious. Eating just one could allow a mortal to ascend in broad daylight and reach the Heavenly Immortal cultivation realm!
Although the Heavenly Court had only recently been established, Queen Mother Yaochi was generous enough to bring out these nine-thousand-year flat peaches.
Immortals and gods gathered in Lingxiao Hall.
There were beings such as the great god of Thunder Marsh, as well as immortals whose names were scarcely known.
Saint Laozi had arrived riding the Azure Ox, and Saint Tongtian rode Kui Ox.
Saint Yuanshi had made an even grander entrance, with Nine Phoenixes pulling his seat.
The Saints had come to offer their congratulations on the Heavenly Court's establishment.
The moment the Saints appeared, everyone rose involuntarily.
Their reverence for the Saints far exceeded their respect for the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother.
