Scourge Messenger

Chapter 479 The Grand Gathering of Proving the Dao
June 10th.

The day was peaceful and uneventful. Perhaps the weather was bad in some places, or war was breaking out in others. Many mortals were dying, and many babies were being born. But for messengers above the Foundation Establishment level, none of this mattered.

They were all waiting for an unprecedented event.

Today, the sun shines brightly in Yaoshi Mountain City. Suolong Zhenren is lying on a deck chair on the viewing platform, basking in the sun. White-tailed deer surround her, lazily lying on the ground, enjoying the cool summer breeze together.

For several days, the pharmacist didn't bother her, allowing her to steal a half-day of leisure. After all, the intensity and pace of the young people's dungeon runs were simply too high, going all out, which was a bit too much for the old lady who had been running dungeons at a leisurely pace for over a hundred years.

Moreover, she's been making so much money lately. If she can sell all the goods she has, Suolong Zhenren estimates she'll make a profit of nearly 30,000, which is almost two years' worth of income. She's actually a laid-back person, and now that she's making money and can entrust the future of her family to the younger generation, Yaoshiyuan, she really doesn't have the motivation to strive for anything more.

She had no interest in ascending to heaven; she only wanted to spend the rest of her life quietly, enjoying carefree peace and happiness.

Even if Yaoshi Yuan leads the Yaoshi family to hell after she dies, she doesn't care, since she can't see it anyway. Therefore, what Suolong Zhenren is most worried about now is that she won't have time to close her eyes before she sees Yaoshi Yuan committing a terrible disaster.

But she hasn't shown up for several days, so she must have settled down, right?

Such a wonderful time should be spent enjoying youth, talking about romance, and seeing the world. Why rush into cultivation? Having children and managing a family is also very interesting. It's best to spend a few decades experiencing the world's splendor first, and then settle down to cultivate yourself. You'll definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Master Suolong secretly resolved to give them a proper talking-to next time they met. Although she had never experienced love or had children, she was quite certain that she would die in a few decades. For the sake of a peaceful and joyful death, Master Suolong was determined to ensure they lived happy and fulfilling lives!

The sunlight underwent a subtle change, and Master Suolong squinted, sitting up from his recliner. Not only her, but at that moment, every Foundation Establishment cultivator and Immortal Lord in the world sensed something.

"Taoist Duobao, at his Treasure Gathering Cave, invites messengers from all over the world to witness the birth of the Golden Dao Emperor!"

Master Suolong accepted the invitation without hesitation. Although she knew that messengers from all over the world would be present, including Seventh-Rank Immortal Lords and even Golden Core Tribulation Lords, she was only a Fifth-Rank Foundation Establishment cultivator and had not attached herself to any power. In the Treasure Cave, she was probably at the bottom of the food chain. If there was any slight disturbance, she might suffer an undeserved disaster.

But so what?
If she misses this grand event of enlightenment because of cowardice, she will hate her own weakness for the rest of her life.

Being born in this era is her good fortune. If she is fortunate enough to witness a grand scene that even the Nine Revolutions Immortal Venerable has never seen, she will not regret it even if she dies on the spot!
With the transmission of the light, Master Suolong arrived at a magnificent hall. In the center was a spacious square, and on the left and right were towering buildings adorned with jewels, reaching dozens of stories high. The ceiling was covered with a mysterious mural, which seemed to be the "Great Dao Chronicle" that Master Dongshou had once boasted about.

She only observed for a few seconds, and many figures emerged in the square, with more appearing with each breath. Soon, the number exceeded one thousand, two thousand, three thousand... Later, Master Suolong gave up on counting because she was also trapped in the sea of ​​people and couldn't see how many there were at all.

Could it be that only mortal messengers remain outside now?
All the foundation-building skills in the world are probably here.

A large number of people inevitably leads to noise, but just as the Treasure Cave was about to become chaotic, the entire space suddenly fell silent. All the Foundation Establishment cultivators restrained their auras, and even the most arrogant and conceited demonic messengers knew to tuck their tails between their legs at this moment.

The immortal lord has arrived.

And it wasn't just one or two, three or four... more than ten at a time.

"Yu Liuting." Some people murmured to themselves, while others gasped and revealed their origins.

Master Suolong hid in a corner, gazing in awe at the Immortal Lords of the Imperial Flowing Court above. They were easily recognizable; all were draped in white feather robes—eleven deans of the Imperial Flowing Court, all present. Eleven seventh-rank Immortal Lords!
Before the Pharmacist wished for their advancement, even True Immortal Lock Dragon wasn't sure if there were eleven Foundation Establishment True Immortals in the Central Plains! Yet, with a single move, Yu Liuting had sent eleven Mortal Immortals!

Master Suolong suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He turned around and saw eight messengers from the Northern Territory who seemed to have emerged from the snowstorm walking in the sky, looking at the eleven deans of the Imperial Court from afar.

"The Eighth Palace Master of the Eternal Heaven has also arrived!"

"All the Zoroastrian saints have arrived!"

"The Immortal Lord of Nanyue!"

"The Immortal Lords Tingnian and Tingyue of the Northern Territory!"

More and more Immortal Lords appeared, some in groups of three or five, some alone, some strolling in the void, and some leaning against the railings of tall buildings. Even though thousands of Foundation Establishment cultivators possessed the ability to fly, they all remained firmly on the ground in the plaza hall. No one dared to stand with the Immortal Lords, tacitly acknowledging that the sky was the exclusive domain of the Immortal Lords.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators looked at the Immortal Lords with awe, standing on the ground like lackeys.

However, soon after, a figure appeared, and all the immortal lords' expressions changed, and they all respectfully greeted him:
"Greetings, Lord Qionghua Biyu!"

Now, even the Foundation Establishment cultivators lost the right to breathe. They looked up at the beautiful figure in the sky, all holding their breath, afraid that the slightest movement of theirs would cause the goddess to frown.

Golden Core Tribulation Master!

Even Immortal Lords of major sects may not have the opportunity to pay homage to Golden Core Tribulation Lords of the same faction!
"It's been a long time, Xuanhuang," said Lord Qionghua Biyu.

"I originally wanted to hide in the crowd."

Amidst the sea of ​​Foundation Establishment cultivators, someone sighed and stepped into the sky. The Immortal Lords exclaimed in unison, "Greetings to the Xuanhuang Houde Emperor!"

At the same time, two beams of light descended upon the Treasure Gathering Cave. The moment they appeared, they shone with boundless brilliance, making the already bright Treasure Gathering Cave seem as if it were under a blazing sun! Thousands of Foundation Establishment cultivators felt their souls tremble, as if they were facing mountains, seas, sun, and moon!

"What a grand display, two from the Heavenly Court," said the Xuanhuang Houde Emperor indifferently.

"Greetings to Lord of Regression and Dependence, Lord of Mountains and Seas with Lanterns!" the immortal lords said in unison.

Regardless of whether they are enemies or not, immortals in the mortal realm must show respect to the Golden Core Tribulation Masters. No one wants to suffer malicious suppression from a Golden Core Tribulation Master during their own tribulation. If one's own Tribulation Master is like an examiner helping one cheat, then an enemy Tribulation Master is like an examiner causing trouble for one during the exam!

Now all the immortals of the mortal world had to obediently fly to the second floor, leaving the third floor and above to the Golden Core Tribulation Masters. No one dared to fly over the head of the Golden Core Tribulation Masters.

Seeing this scene, Master Suolong felt a little amused for some reason.
