Chapter 213 The Heavenly Dao Assembly

Two weeks passed quickly.

On the appointed day, Song Chen and Zhao Ziyi had already packed their storage bags.

Before they left, the pool of incarnations behind them had become completely empty, without leaving a single drop of water.

The two held hands affectionately, waiting for the Flood Dragon Ancestor within the formation.

A moment later, the formation flashed with golden light.

The Transformation Pool Formation was activated, and the Flood Dragon Ancestor appeared before the two.

"Huh?" Zhao Ziyi looked at the Flood Dragon Ancestor with some surprise and asked curiously, "Ancestor, it's been a year since I last saw you. You look a bit haggard."

At this moment, the appearance of the Flood Dragon Ancestor changed drastically.

Originally, the Dragon Ancestor was a man of few words and rarely showed his emotions. He had a heroic appearance with sword-like eyebrows that slanted upwards towards his temples.

But at this moment, he was full of sorrow, his head was drooping and he looked as if dark clouds were hanging over his head, even his eyebrows were drooping.

The Dragon Ancestor waved his hand and said:

"It's a long story, I'll tell you when we get back to Spicy Palace."

Upon hearing this, Song Chen's brow twitched:

"Could something major have happened within the past year?"

The Dragon Ancestor nodded and said:

"This matter cannot be discussed outside. Let's go."

After speaking, the Flood Dragon Ancestor waved his hand, and a flying sword appeared at their feet.

The flying sword was entirely blue, made of wood, and emanated a rich vitality.

Song Chen knew at a glance that this flying sword was extraordinary.

He observed it closely and discovered that it was actually made of Qingyun wood.

A favorable wind lends its strength, sending me soaring to the heavens.

The Azure Cloud Wood is one of the Ten Divine Woods. Legend has it that the Azure Cloud Wood can connect to the heavens, drawing upon the power of the stars, and can also connect to the cycle of reincarnation, guiding the souls of immortals.

But the Qingyun wood, with its immense power, grows only one meter every 100,000 years. It can be described as a rare treasure in the world.

Song Chen never expected that the divine wood he had only seen in the jade slip would actually be real, and that this piece of Qingyun wood was so huge that it was made into a six-foot-four-inch flying sword.

While marveling at the rarity of the Azure Cloud Wood, Song Chen also noticed that the Flood Dragon Ancestor was unusually carrying the two of them on a flying sword, which was truly strange.

Song Chen and Zhao Ziyi exchanged a glance, but said nothing. They quietly sat down cross-legged, intending to begin their cultivation.

The Flood Dragon Ancestor formed a hand seal, and a simple protective array rose from the Azure Cloud Wood, preventing the airflow from affecting their cultivation.

Two days and one night passed.

As dusk settled and the moon and stars sparsely visible, the three finally returned to the Spicy Palace.

Spicy Palace remains the same, situated on the riverbank of the Star Pivot Immortal Fox Royal City.

Day and night have little impact on the cultivators.

But for demon cultivators, sleep at night is their primary method of cultivation.

Therefore, the entire Star Nexus Fairy Fox territory was quiet.

Only the countless luminous pearls decorating the interior and exterior of the Spicy Palace emitted a soft light.

Song Chen and Zhao Ziyi pushed open the door of the Spicy Palace, their hearts pounding wildly, and they turned pale with fright.

Inside the Spicy Palace, a group of elders stood behind the door, their bodies ramrod straight, their faces expressionless and their expressions haggard as they stared intently at the two of them.

Zhao Ziyi felt his veins throbbing. He pinched his brow, which ached from the rapid blood flow, and sighed.

"Elders, why aren't you turning on the lights?"

"You guys gave me a fright just now, you looked just like ghost cultivators, you scared me to death!"

Song Chen turned around and closed the door, then frowned and looked at Xiao Shi beside him:

"Where are your beehives? I think I just saw that all your beehives are gone."

Little Stone's six large wings drooped, and it murmured:

"This is a long story, boss. Let's talk about the important things first."

Song Chen nodded, looked at the patriarchs, and said:

"Elders, we rushed back without resting. Why don't we eat and talk?"

Before the elders could nod in agreement, Song Chen flew to the third floor. He patted his storage bag, and sixty-six dishes flew out and landed on a specially made round table.

"Elders, please take a seat. Let's discuss this matter in detail."

Zhao Ziyi followed Song Chen's figure to the third floor and then sat down next to Song Chen.

The next second, the ancestors swiftly took their seats.

A round table was instantly filled with people.

The dining table is the best place for communication because when one person is speaking, the others at the table will not stare at him directly, and it will not feel awkward.

After eating a few bites of food, Zhao Ziyi looked at the Heavenly Fox Ancestor and asked seriously:

"Ancestor, what exactly happened? I feel that none of you are in a good state right now."

The Celestial Fox Ancestor sighed, put down his chopsticks, and explained to the two of them what had recently happened.

"This year was fine all year, nothing major happened, until half a month ago, when the Heavenly Dao descended upon the True Treasure Continent."

Zhao Ziyi paused, his chopsticks still holding the food. Had he heard correctly? What had happened? The will of Heaven?

Zhao Ziyi's eyes were filled with disbelief.

The Celestial Fox Ancestor asked in confusion:

"Didn't you see and hear it? That cry was heard by all the cultivators on the True Treasure Continent."

There were also real dragons and phoenixes roaming the heavens.

Zhao Ziyi frowned and shook his head:

"Didn't you hear me? What time is it...?"

"Ahem!" Song Chen coughed, interrupting Zhao Ziyi.

Song Chen smiled and said:

"We did hear the baby crying, but Ziyi was too engrossed in his cultivation at the time to notice."

But we don't seem to have seen any dragons or phoenixes.

The Dragon Ancestor interjected, explaining:

"It's probably because you were inside the formation that the formation weakened the sound, which is why we didn't hear the dragon's roar, the wind's whisper, or the baby's cries."

Song Chen nodded:

"Yes, that's right."

The Celestial Fox Ancestor shrugged and continued:

"In short, the Heavenly Dao truly descended, and transformed into a human being, born into the Tianyi Sect. At that time, everyone saw the Tianyi Sect's territory filled with multicolored light..."

It turns out that after the Heavenly Dao was born, the nine great demon clan ancestors went to the Tianyi Sect together.

The four great demon ancestors followed suit.

At this time, Tianyi Sect was bustling like never before, with countless cultivators coming and going, and even more than a hundred Nascent Soul stage elders came to visit.

When the demon ancestors arrived, the sect leader of Tianyi Sect smiled and said to them:

"Hahaha! Fellow Daoists, you've arrived at just the right time. Our Tianyi Sect is about to hold a grand meeting, so why don't you all come and participate?"

Since we're already here, there's no harm in attending the conference.

More than a dozen elders were invited to the Tianyi Sect's gathering.

This gathering is called the "Heavenly Way Assembly".

The monks whispered among themselves, wondering why the conference was called that.

The dozen or so patriarchs, upon seeing this name, felt a jolt in their hearts and fell silent.

The venue for the conference was the square of the Tianyi Sect.

The ancestor in the Integration Stage sat at the very top of the square.

Countless high- and low-level cultivators sat cross-legged together below the plaza.

All eyes were on the Tianyi Sect Master in the center of the square.

As a cry rang out, everyone's spirits lifted; the main character of the event had arrived!

A beautiful woman descended from the sky, carrying a swaddled infant in her arms, who was crying loudly.

The sect leader of Tianyi Sect put his arm around the beautiful woman's shoulder and laughed:

"You have all come here because you are curious about the strange phenomenon that has appeared in the sky."

Here, I will explain the reason.

The auspicious omens that have descended upon the Tianyi Sect are all because of this child; he is the son born to my Daoist partner and me.
