Chapter 561: Chapter 560: In Honor of the Daoist Lord, Supreme Celestial Venerable of the Grand Void! [Third Update]

In fact, regarding the matter of taking the people of the Hidden Dragon Dynasty to the Daoist Court,

Lin Heng had been considering it for a long time.

It’s just that in the Upper Realm over the years, he was in constant warfare, his life hanging by a thread, and naturally, he was powerless to help.

But now things are different.

He can now freely roam anywhere in this world, and naturally, he can also help the people of White Cliff Mountain fulfill their dream of family reunification.

"You can go back and discuss it with your ministers, if you’re unwilling, I won’t force it," Lin Heng said.

Before his words even fell, the young new emperor bowed and said, "Willing, I think everyone will be willing!"

Just as he had said.

Many ministers at his side couldn’t help but shed tears upon hearing Lin Heng’s invitation.

In fact, they had been restless inside when they heard that White Cliff Mountain in the Eastern Immortal Realm had become an Immortal Court Level Dynasty.

But the Eastern Immortal Realm was really too distant for these ordinary immortals.

So distant that it might take decades or centuries to reach...

For a Quasi-Saint, the Grand Thousand Upper Realm certainly didn’t seem boundlessly vast.

But for most beings, not to mention crossing immortal realms, even the distance between two continents is an incomparably long journey!

"Alright."

Seeing their eagerness to return, Lin Heng was also happy for them.

"You should immediately notify all the people and have them get ready. Later, I will send someone to personally escort you to the Eastern Immortal Realm," Lin Heng said.

The matter of the Hidden Dragon Dynasty was settled.

Lin Heng returned to the Vermilion Bird Immortal Sect, which had already made the decision to join the Daoist Court.

Following closely, the Phoenix Ancestor, after much consideration, also made the same choice.

As a Quasi-Saint,

It was more aware of the future turmoil than others.

And the most dangerous place would certainly be the Southern Immortal Realm.

There was no choice.

The Western Regions had the Buddha Country.

The Northern Domain had the Demon Race.

The Central Domain was Great Qin.

The Eastern Domain was Daoism.

Any of these four forces were the top in this world.

And the Southern Immortal Realm, without any top forces, would in the future be divided, even becoming a buffer battlefield.

So, though the Phoenix Immortal Sect now seemed to be sitting securely, it was actually at the center of the storm...

"I will return to the sect immediately. Once everything is ready, I will go with you to the Eastern Domain," the Phoenix Ancestor said.

"I must go first," Lin Heng said. "The fortune of the Immortal Court is dispersing, time waits for no one. I must return with the Celestial Demon Emperor first, and I will trouble you to guard this place. There will be many going to the Eastern Domain, and I will send Sun Wukong to accompany you in escorting them."

"Alright,"

The Phoenix Ancestor nodded.

Without further delay, Lin Heng, accompanied by the Celestial Demon Emperor, traversed the continents at lightning speed back to the Eastern Desolate.

They returned just in time.

Arriving on the eve of when the fortune was about to completely collapse.

With the help of the Celestial Demon Emperor, the fortune of the Immortal Court was finally restored.

...

In the next half year,

The Immortal Court army continued to campaign everywhere.

At the same time, under the escort of the Quasi-Saints Sun Wukong and the Phoenix Ancestor, the Hidden Dragon Dynasty, Vermilion Bird Immortal Sect, and numerous Phoenix experts, all arrived at the Eastern Desolate one after another.

Besides this,

Many beings from the Southern Heaven Continent voluntarily followed and joined the Daoist Court.

For a time, the prestige of the Daoist Court was at its zenith.

...

However, whether it was the Western Heaven Buddha Country or the Great Qin Celestial Court,

They weren’t the least bit panicked about the growing strength of the Daoist Court.

The Buddhas of the Western Heaven were preparing for the return of the World Honored One.

The Great Qin Celestial Court was unusually peaceful.

But reliable sources state that the thousands of dragon corpses brought back from the North Sea have been disappearing.

And from the depths of the Great Qin Black Celestial Palace,

The terrifying aura would occasionally seep out.

The outside world speculates.

That the First Emperor Ying Zheng, who cultivates a corpse body, may have reached an unimaginable level!

Among the four top forces, perhaps only the Demon Race Celestial Court is left utterly exhausted every day.

The Demon Ancestor tried to continue sending demons to campaign the Southern Domain and collect blood energy.

But he was often met with the interception of the strong from the Daoist Court.

Moreover, for merit, or because the Demon Race’s actions have provoked universal anger, some hidden Quasi-Saints in the Southern Immortal Realm have also appeared one after another, either directly killing or intimidating.

In short, the process of the Demon Race collecting blood energy has become extremely difficult.

The Demon Ancestor, though furious, was helpless.

With Lin Heng present,

He didn’t dare to reveal himself.

...

Another month swiftly passed.

Lin Heng looked at the current map. Nearly half of the Eastern Immortal Realm was essentially Daoist Court territory now.

In terms of time,

There was less than two months left until the day foretold by Wutian for the Saint Tathagata to return to the Buddha Country.

Lin Heng understood that the matter of ascending to become the Celestial Court could not wait any longer.

"Within three days, prepare for ascension. Shen Gongbao, what about the choice for my title?"

Now the Daoist Court’s Immortal Palace had grown even more magnificent and grand, its vastness akin to a suspended heavenly continent.

Vast fortune turned into golden clouds, supporting the Immortal Palace.

The scene was extremely majestic and awe-inspiring.

It gave people a feeling of witnessing the reappearance of the Ancient Celestial Court.

Immortals stood tall upon it.

It can be said that the current Daoist Court, although not yet ascended, has already far surpassed the demeanor of an Immortal Level Dynasty, with the aura of the Celestial Court!

All that remains is for the ascension to succeed.

The Daoist Court will become a truly top-tier power in the Grand Thousand Worlds!

"Reporting to the Daoist Lord, I have searched through ancient texts and probed the heavenly secrets, and have acquired the Daoist Lord’s title from the Black Tortoise Shell," Shen Gongbao said.

Lin Heng quietly looked at him, waiting for his next words.

Shen Gongbao declared loudly, "The Daoist Lord revives the Dao lineage, this merit is unsurpassed, it should bear the appellation of the Ancestor and the word Tai. The Daoist Lord moves against the trend, and the Heavenly Dao calamity becomes illusory, hence the title should include the word Xu."

"The Daoist Lord in the Human World, regardless of his life, ascended the world, reached the pinnacle of the Quasi-Saints in the Upper Realm, establishing merit, virtue, and prestige, supreme and utmost."

"Now we honor the Daoist Lord, the Taixu Supreme Benefactor of the World, Celestial Venerable!"

"Addressed as, Taixu Celestial Venerable!"

Shen Gongbao’s tone was sonorous, each word delivered emphatically.

"Taixu...?" Lin Heng murmured to himself, finding the feeling odd.
