Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

#390 - Chapter 389 Enthronement Ceremony (Part 2)

Half an hour later, Yu Tianwan, one of the Nascent Soul elders with the highest cultivation in the arena, leaped onto the high platform, and the noise in the hall immediately subsided.

"The new Sect Master Ascension Ceremony of the Xuan Tian Sect begins now! Please be quiet, everyone!"

However, his words actually caused the hall, which was about to quiet down, to become restless again.

A voice shouted loudly, "Elder Yu, where is True Person Tong? Why is True Person Tong not here?"

This person was eight feet tall, with a broad back and a round waist, and a face as black as the bottom of a pot. He was Zeng Quanyi, the Grand Elder of the Sword Howl Valley, a middle-level sect under the Xuan Tian Sect. His cultivation was at the Great Perfection stage of the Nascent Soul middle stage, and his combat power was extremely strong. In a chaotic battle, he had successively killed three Nascent Soul middle stage cultivators and one Nascent Soul late stage cultivator, achieving a remarkable reputation.

"That's right, why is True Person Tong not here?"

Several Nascent Soul cultivators from the subordinate sects also shouted out.

According to convention, the ascension ceremony of the new Sect Master of the Xuan Tian Sect is presided over by a Nascent Soul True Person, representing the recognition of the highest authority in the sect.

Today, Tong Tianfu had not yet appeared, and Yu Tianwan announced the start of the ceremony, which inevitably made these lower sect cultivators feel suspicious, thinking that something had happened in the Xuan Tian Sect again.

Some Nascent Soul cultivators from the lower sects looked at the other Nascent Soul elders of the Xuan Tian Sect, and those with close relationships directly inquired through voice transmission.

Seeing the commotion in the hall, Yu Tianwan shouted loudly, "Everyone, please be quiet. To prevent the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Heavenly Devil Abyss from launching a surprise attack on Flowing Cloud Immortal City during the new Sect Master's ascension, True Person Tong has already taken the Heavenly Thunder Halberd to the west. True Person Tong said before leaving that the Sect Master Ascension Ceremony should be held as scheduled and should not be postponed. Our Xuan Tian Sect also has no rules that a new Sect Master Ceremony can only be held with a Nascent Soul True Person presiding over it."

Hearing Yu Tianwan's explanation, everyone in the arena felt relieved.

Especially the lower sect cultivators, being able to send people to attend and congratulate the new Sect Master of the Xuan Tian Sect on his ascension meant that their sects were deeply involved with the Xuan Tian Sect, and could even be said to share the same fate. Therefore, no one wanted Tong Tianfu, who had just entered the Nascent Soul realm, to have any accidents.

"If that's the case, then I, Zeng, am relieved. I was a little impatient just now and offended Elder Yu. Please forgive me, Elder Yu!" Zeng Quanyi said quickly, and after speaking, he cupped his fists and saluted Yu Tianwan on the high platform to show his apology.

Yu Tianwan smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Zeng, there is no need to be so polite. It is understandable for everyone to be concerned about True Person Tong. Please rest assured, everyone, with the Heavenly Thunder Halberd in hand, True Person Tong can protect himself even if he encounters a Nascent Soul late stage Great Cultivator."

He paused for a few breaths, and seeing that the noise in the hall had stopped, he said solemnly, "Pass on the True Person's words: The Xuan Tian Sect has been passed down for a hundred generations, constantly growing, standing tall in the Southern Region, and shaking the four fields with its might. Xuan means far, and Tian means great. A far-reaching ambition cannot be achieved without an extraordinary person.

"Therefore, the founding ancestor of the sect valued not only aptitude, but also character; not only cultivation, but also demeanor. Anyone who is the master of a sect must be upright in character and fair in conduct; must be firm in will and unafraid of difficulties; must uphold the laws and regulations and not abandon them in the slightest. Only in this way can they check and balance the strong, nurture the weak, and make the sect flourish and improve day by day. Now there is a junior cultivator, Liu Yuanqing, who is of upright character, acts prudently, and enjoys popular support, and can be the master of a sect!"

"True Person's words, are there any objections?"

The cultivators of the Xuan Tian Sect all bowed and said, "We respectfully obey the True Person's words!"

The cultivators of the lower sects all looked solemn and shouted loudly, "We respectfully obey the True Person's words!"

Yu Tianwan shouted loudly, "Respectfully invite the new Sect Master to ascend the throne!"

The crowd below the stage shouted in unison, "Respectfully invite the new Sect Master to ascend the throne!"

Amidst the shouts of the crowd, a vortex of mana appeared on the stone wall behind the high platform, and a golden figure emerged from it, instantly teleporting to the high platform.

This was none other than Liu Yuanqing.

He wore a jade crown, a golden Taoist robe depicting auspicious clouds, white cranes, flying swords, and copper seals, and walked solemnly to the wooden throne. Then, he bowed to the crowd below the stage.

Everyone returned the salute.

Liu Yuanqing straightened his back, took a step forward, stood in front of the wooden chair, glanced down, and then sat down on the throne.

"Greetings, Sect Master Liu!" everyone shouted.

Liu Yuanqing, however, closed his eyes tightly, as if immersed in another world.

The crowd showed envy in their eyes, knowing that Liu Yuanqing must have obtained an opportunity. But it only went that far. No one dared to sit on this wooden chair without being formally appointed as the Xuan Tian Sect Master.

After a quarter of an hour, Liu Yuanqing opened his eyes, and a flame-like light flashed in his eyes, like a collision of thunder and fire.

Although the crowd could not see what it was, they all knew that it must be related to the laws of fire and thunder.

Liu Yuanqing cultivated the fire-based techniques in the Xuan Tian Art. This opportunity was in line with this, which meant that his path of cultivation would become smoother.

Liu Yuanqing sat still and smiled to greet the crowd below the stage.

At this time, Yu Tianwan shouted loudly, "Activate the formation!"

In an instant, nine golden lights fell from the top of the hall, gathering on Liu Yuanqing.

This golden light was pure spiritual power drawn from the great spiritual acupoints deep underground by a powerful formation, directly infused into the body, which could increase a large amount of cultivation at one time, equivalent to a hundred years of effort.

Liu Yuanqing's aura was seen rapidly climbing from the initial stage of Nascent Soul to the Great Perfection stage of the Nascent Soul early stage. After this, he only needed to polish it for a few years to directly enter the Nascent Soul middle stage.

After the spiritual infusion was completed, bells and tripods rang outside the hall, resounding throughout True Dao Peak and spreading far to the other one hundred and seven peaks of the mountain gate.

Yu Tianwan stepped forward and said loudly, "Please, guests, present congratulatory gifts!"

The order of presenting congratulatory gifts had already been agreed upon. Guests first, then the sect. The order of the guests was middle-level sects first, then small sects. Sects of the same level were ranked according to their origins and strength.

"The Yanling Sect offers twenty Xuan-grade first to third-tier spiritual medicines! Five bottles of Rongling Pills! Twenty precious mineral stones! Five thousand middle-grade spiritual stones!"

Among the middle-level sects under the Xuan Tian Sect, the Yanling Sect's strength could only be considered average, but it was the first to defect, so for more than ten thousand years, this sect had always ranked first among the sects under the Xuan Tian Sect.

In the process of its existence, this sect had encountered several dangers that could lead to the collapse of the sect, but the Xuan Tian Sect had resolved them. The relationship between the two sects was extremely close.

"The Tianfu Sect offers five middle-tier high-grade Blazing Fire Talismans, five Flame Burst Talismans, five Five-Fire Spirit Dispelling Talismans, five True Fire Talismans, and five thousand middle-grade spiritual stones!"

The Tianfu Sect focused on talisman-making and had defected to the Xuan Tian Sect for a long time. Moreover, the sect's strength was very strong, and it was one of the Xuan Tian Sect's right-hand men in resisting the Heavenly Devil Abyss in the west, so it ranked second.

"The Yuqi Sect offers five hundred-refined profound stones, fifteen middle-tier high-grade Thunderclap Seeds, fifteen middle-tier high-grade Spirit Bursting Bullets, and three thousand middle-grade spiritual stones!"

......

Before long, more than twenty sects, large and small, presented congratulatory gifts, pushing the ascension ceremony to a climax.

Just as everyone was excitedly comparing the congratulatory gifts of the various sects, a loud explosion suddenly came from outside the hall, followed by earth-shattering tremors. The Xuan Tian Palace's restrictions were activated, and seven-colored rays of light flew in all directions.

A high-pitched voice sounded from above, "Du Fuming and Lu Dingyi, Nascent Soul cultivators from the Heavenly Devil Abyss, have come to offer a great gift. Please, Sect Master of the Xuan Tian Sect, open the formation and accept it with a smile!"
