The golden invitation is exquisite, with intricate and complex dragon patterns, which are actually thousands of Dragon Rune symbols.

Dragon Rune is one of the oldest symbols, originally passed down by the Dragon Race, but later spread widely and became common magic symbols in the Immortal Realm.

This commonality is carefully considered; only those sects with ancient and powerful inheritances can master parts of the Dragon Rune.

The most authentic Dragon Rune symbols are undoubtedly in the hands of the Dragon Race.

The Dragon Rune symbols on this invitation are complex and exquisite.

Different people, with varying levels of perception, will interpret the meaning of the Dragon Rune symbols differently.

In Gao Xuan's view, the invitation wrote four words: Celestial Master to Open.

This Celestial Master to Open is not simple; if the Dragon Rune Array on it isn't decoded, the invitation cannot be opened.

Forcibly opening it would only damage the invitation.

Gao Xuan asked Celestial Fool: "What is the Celestial Dragon Dharma Assembly for?"

"The Celestial Dragon Dharma Assembly has a very long history, it's said that initially the Four Seas Dragon Race gathered to debate, and the scale gradually expanded, beginning to invite strong figures from various paths…"

Celestial Fool is quite knowledgeable about the Celestial Dragon Dharma Assembly, as it is indeed the premier event in the Cyan Celestial Realm, incomparable to any dharma assembly the Buddhist Sect could host.

Celestial Fool introduced: "The Celestial Dragon Dharma Assembly is held once every three thousand years, where many powerful figures convene to preach, ultimately selecting the top three, with the East Sea Dragon Race providing precious treasures as rewards."

"Preaching, how do they compare superiority and inferiority?"

Gao Xuan was curious; preaching is merely theoretical discussion, difficult to compare superiority unless the gap is substantial.

Those daring to preach are surely formidable figures, with ample wisdom and experience, not easily caught making mistakes.

Generally, this leads to intense debates, with neither side able to convince the other.

Much like keyboard warriors online, no matter how reasonable one might be, it's virtually impossible to persuade the opposing party.

Moreover, any logic is relative and cannot universally apply, like the logic of the Human Race not being applicable to the Dragon Race.

Between different races, bodily forms vary greatly, with even larger cultural differences. How can one easily convince the other?

Celestial Fool said: "In debates, of course, superiority and inferiority must be compared, so the judgment is immediate."

"Haha…"

Gao Xuan laughed heartily, not because he didn't understand this reasoning, but he thought such a grand dharma assembly might have some special, clever method to judge superiority.

After all, it still comes down to fighting.

Gao Xuan asked Celestial Fool: "So, was this invitation specially for me?"

Celestial Fool nodded: "Three thousand years ago I attended once, and the Celestial Dragon Dharma Assembly is indeed the Cyan Celestial Realm's foremost event. Strong figures from all regions will participate…"

In this vast Cyan Celestial Realm, the distance between the four regions is immense, only a grand event like the Celestial Dragon Dharma Assembly can gather powerful figures from the Four Great Regions.

For cultivators, this is certainly the top-tier event. Even just to witness the spectacle is enough to boast about for a lifetime.

Celestial Fool said: "Generally speaking, the East Sea Dragon Race distributes ten invitations to each region, of course, the Eastern Province receives more invitations."

He sighed: "The Eastern Province is the largest among the Four Great Regions, the other three combined may not match it, and the Eastern Province also has the most powerful figures.

"Based on records from past Celestial Dragon Dharma Assemblies, in the previous two hundred ninety sessions, only a few victories belonged to regions outside the Eastern Province…"

Celestial Fool said: "Cultivators from the Eastern Province have always been arrogant, looking down on other regions. It's not that we don't strive, but we do lag behind the Eastern Province in this aspect."

The Cyan Celestial Realm has a noticeable limit on power. Among top-tier figures, the difference can be very small.

Yet, the Eastern Province stands alone, far surpassing other regions.

Celestial Fool, having reached this point, is increasingly aware of how strong Eastern Province cultivators are. Although the difference in Dao Practice may be slight, it's an insurmountable barrier.

Gao Xuan asked: "Do you think they invited me to take this opportunity to kill me?"

Celestial Fool smiled wryly: "That's very likely. The Buddhist Sect from the Eastern Province has a Golden Body Arhat, nearly eight thousand years old this year. I've seen him once; he's fiery and likes using thunderous methods…"

He thought for a while and said: "The East Sea Dragon King Ao Dongcheng is rather magnanimous, quite formidable."

At the last Celestial Dragon Dharma Assembly, Celestial Fool saw Ao Dongcheng once. In front of Ao Dongcheng, he was just a junior, not even qualified to speak with him.

Just witnessing Ao Dongcheng presiding over the assembly left a deep impression on Celestial Fool.

Among the strong figures Celestial Fool has seen in his lifetime, only Gao Xuan's elegant demeanor can surpass Ao Dongcheng.

Of course, this is his personal opinion. Ao Dongcheng's grandeur and extraordinary capacity might not actually be inferior to Gao Xuan.

In Celestial Fool's heart, Gao Xuan single-handedly annihilated many Buddhist Sect strong figures and the North Sea Dragon King, his power is first in the Cyan Celestial Realm, unmatched by any strong figures.

Celestial Fool contemplated and said: "The Dragon Race is extremely united, even if Ao Dongcheng doesn't mind, other dragons are bound to make trouble. If Celestial Master goes, there will surely be various issues."

He looked at Gao Xuan with a complex expression; not going would certainly save trouble, but this trouble seems unavoidable.

With powerful figures from the Four Great Regions gathered, and the Dragon Race hosting it, they are sure to denounce Gao Xuan for indiscriminately killing dragons.

Scolding is one thing, but the worry is them forming some Alliance to collectively target Gao Xuan.

In Celestial Fool's view, it's actually better for Gao Xuan to participate in the dharma assembly. At least he can showcase his power, intimidating others. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

As for the Dragon Race and Buddhist Sect, they might not actually have the guts to cause trouble for Gao Xuan.

Of course, there's also the possibility that many strong figures gather, and with superior numbers, Gao Xuan shows up only to provoke their murderous intent.
