Mysterious mirror hanging high

As Lord Baiyuan Dragon sank into the Nine Heavens Gale Layer and disappeared, the entire inland sea fell into deathly silence.

The three-eyed dragon king, his golden scales shattered and his body covered in blood, sat on an island reef in a daze, looking distraught. The many gods hidden in the void were also speechless for a long time.

Jing Yu looked at Yun Xuance, who was also silent, and transmitted a voice message, "Sanniang's foresight is as accurate as a god. As expected, we only need to wait for the other Divine Transformation Heavenly Monarchs to release their Divine Transformation restrictions..."

"Now that all the Divine Transformation Heavenly Monarchs who can ascend have done so, won't a large number of Immortal Eye spots be vacant?"

Yun Xuance frowned in thought, "I expected a Divine Transformation cultivator to escape from the Immortal Continent. It would have been unusual if none hadn't… but I never expected even the late Divine Transformation cultivator, Bai Yuan Longjun, would escape!"

"If the Divine Cauldron were to descend to the mortal realm in its Divine Transformation stage, both Baiyuan Dragon Monarch and Qiu Dongxuan would be crucial in resisting the catastrophe. If it were to leave... I'm afraid the vast majority of cultivators in the mid-stage Divine Transformation stage would be frightened into ascending."

As Yun Xuance expected, not long after, many of the Divine Transformation cultivators hidden in the Great Void found excuses to leave.

"I remember that there are still some unfinished business in the sect. Fellow Daoists, I will be leaving first."

"Hmm... I still have a furnace of elixirs in my cave. It's time to start the furnace. Everyone, take your leave."

"One of my disciples had agreed to form an infant today. I came to watch Taoist Tianxiang's ascension ceremony, but I actually forgot about it... Oh, look at my memory..."

Several cultivators in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm walked the fastest, and the rest were mostly cultivators in the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. Many of them had grim expressions. After all, even if they ascended, the probability of survival was less than 10%, and they could only stay in the Immortal Continent Realm and give it a try... But according to the current situation, even if they stayed in the Immortal Continent Realm, it was hard to say whether the probability of survival would be 10%!

Xiao Zhenyu's expression was even uglier. He had originally planned to help Baiyuan Dragon Lord escape, as there was at least a great cultivator in the late stage of Spiritualization who could lead the other cultivators in the Immortal Continent to fight against the Divine Cauldron. Furthermore, Xiao's ancestor [Xiao Buyi] had a small bond with this old Dragon Lord, so it would be easy for him to protect the Penglai Holy Land. But who knew...

"Brother Xiao, don't count on this old dragon."

Xiao Zhenyu turned around and saw Qi Tianhua from Songfeng Pavilion. He looked determined and said, "Ultimately, this matter depends on us!"

Xiao Zhenyu was stunned and asked, "Fellow Daoist Qi, do you want to stay in Xianzhou?"

Qi Tianhua smiled faintly: "I was born and raised here. Zhongzhou is my hometown. The ancestors of Songfeng Pavilion are watching from heaven... How can I sit idly by and watch the ten thousand year old Taoist tradition be destroyed today and go to the upper realm to live in misery?"

"The three pavilions of Zhongzhou are of the same blood. We have always stood together." The Grand Master of Xuanyin Pavilion [Kan Qingyin] also stepped forward:

"Back then, [Jian Ge] was destroyed because of a momentary mistake on our part. Fellow Daoist Qi and I often regretted it late into the night. Now, we must not make the same mistake again."

Qi Tianhua said meaningfully, "Back then, we watched [Jian Ge] fall for the sake of our sect's lineage. Today, we remain to fight the catastrophe together, also for the sake of our sect's lineage...it's all the same."

Xiao Zhenyu had not expected Qi Tianhua and Kan Qingyin to be so resolute. He looked surprised and turned to look at the other two old Taoists:

"Fellow Daoist Guxu, Fellow Daoist Zhican, what do you think?"

[Juntian Temple] Taoist Zhican proudly said, "Juntian Temple is the largest temple in the world. How can the leader of the Xianzhou Dao sect fall behind?"

The Great Taoist Gu Xu, the incarnation of Liangyi Temple, sneered, "If I, an old Taoist, were to flee at this moment, wouldn't that prove that Liangyi Temple is inferior to Juntian Temple?"

"Hahahaha!"

Xiao Zhenyu laughed heartily and said, "Great, great! Everyone says that my righteous way is conservative and rigid, but they don't know that Penglai Zhongzhou has its own unique character!"

The voices of the few people were not loud, but Jing Yu and others were very close to them, so they heard everything they said. They exchanged glances and secretly admired each other in their hearts.

Although the Penglai righteous path has many flaws, at least it has no major flaws and can really handle things when encountering problems.

But at this moment, the situation on the sea suddenly changed.

Xiao Guanying's shadow drove a golden chariot, like the rising sun, suddenly tearing the sky across the five seas and four continents.

As the gilded chariot rolled over the sea of ​​clouds, billions of imperial decrees emerged from the void and transformed into brilliant light bands surrounding the chariot, illuminating the entire sky as if it were cast in gold.

Wherever the chariot passed, countless cultivators saw the shadow of the emperor's crown looming in the sky, and its majesty even caused the mountains and rivers to resonate and tremble.

"Gu, Xiao Guanying."

The deep and majestic voice penetrated through layers of space and echoed over every inch of land.

The Xuanyin Pavilion's Transformed Spirit Supreme [Kan Qingyin]'s expression changed, and he said solemnly, "This is... [The Law of Sound]! Xiao Guanying is truly a genius. Besides refining the cornerstone law of the acupoints, he actually has the spare time to study other laws? And his attainments seem quite high..."

"At this critical moment of the Immortal Continent's survival, I have a promise."

"I wish to lead all the cultivators in the Immortal Continent to fight against the great calamity of the Immortal Continent... I swear I will not ascend until the great calamity is overcome!"

"I also hope that the world's talented people will enter my heavenly court and help me achieve enlightenment..."

As soon as he finished speaking, several red beams of light shot out from his head and formed into a blood-red chain that penetrated his heart in full view of everyone.

Xiao Zhenyu gasped, "It's actually the highest level of the Heart Demon Oath! If he breaks it, he will be retaliated and die!"

Yun Xuance looked at the sudden change in the celestial phenomena and muttered, "He's taking advantage of the situation... He's trying to force all the cultivators in the world to express their opinions."

As expected, Xiao Guanying's voice spread far and wide, and many cultivators in the early stage of the Spiritualization Realm in Taixu were actually interested:

"It is said that the principles practiced by this Suying Celestial Emperor are special. The stronger the forces under his rule and the wider the territory he controls, the more his cultivation will improve... He has reached the middle stage of the Divine Incarnation stage in just a few hundred years. His speed is incredible."

"If I can help him quickly advance to the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, it might be a guarantee..."

On the Penglai Righteous Path side, Qi Tianhua's expression changed upon hearing this, and he stamped his foot, saying, "After all, we've suffered the loss of honesty. We should have acted like this just now, seizing the righteous position first... and now this brat has taken the lead."

"It's okay, let him do whatever he wants."

Xiao Zhenyu narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "A question suddenly occurred to me... If the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty can send people down, then can't the ascended seniors from our current Taoist sect send people down?"

"It seems that the ascension of the White Abyss Dragon King isn't entirely a bad thing... He's a late-stage Spiritual Transformation True Dragon, and a pure-blooded True Dragon at that. His chances of successfully ascending are probably around 80 to 90 percent. If our ancestor can capture White Abyss in the Immortal Realm, he'll quickly learn about the current situation in the Immortal Continent and perhaps even offer some guidance."

"Yes!"

Qi Tianhua and the others' eyes lit up. "[Penglai Celestial Monarch] is incredibly talented, and his current cultivation level might not be much weaker than the first generation of the Divine Cauldron Immortal Emperor... Perhaps he can operate in the upper realm and eliminate this Immortal Continent catastrophe from the root..."
