Primordial Era: Starting with the repair of Penglai Immortal Island

Huang Long poured himself a cup of tea, took a small sip, and said slowly, "Senior brother is already lucky to have anything to eat, why are you being so picky?"

Duobao's lips twitched, and he was about to retort when Xuandu suddenly spoke up.

"Senior Brother Huanglong," Xuandu's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, carrying a special rhythm that was exceptionally pleasant to listen to, "On my way here, I heard that the Heavenly Court is going to hold a Peach Banquet?"

As he spoke, he looked calmly at Huanglong, as if waiting for confirmation.

Huang Long nodded: "Not bad."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Uncle-Master Haotian intends to use the Peach Banquet to demonstrate the majesty and power of the Heavenly Court to all living beings in the prehistoric world."

Upon hearing the words "Peach of Immortality," Duobao's eyes lit up, and his body shimmered with a precious light.

He put down the longevity peach in his hand, leaned forward slightly, and his eyes gleamed with golden light, looking like a cat that had smelled fish.

"what?"

He deliberately dragged out his words, "Junior Brother Huanglong, you're referring to the peaches from the Heavenly Peaches when you invited us to eat them?"

Huang Long glanced at him, about to speak, when suddenly his expression changed and his gaze turned to the outside of the hall.

More guests have arrived.

His divine sense detected that at the end of the corridor, two heavenly soldiers were leading a group of people toward him.

The group included both men and women, each possessing profound inner strength, with some even rivaling Duobao in cultivation.

Huanglong stood up, said "Wait a moment" to Duobao and Xuandu, and walked out of the hall.

As I approached the palace gate, I ran into that group of people.

The man at the forefront wore a purple-gold crown and a purple robe with a trigram pattern, with a square face and a composed demeanor. He was none other than Guang Chengzi, the chief disciple of the Chan Sect.

Several people followed behind him, including the Antarctic Immortal, Chi Jingzi, Taiyi, Yuding, Daoxing, and Qingxu.

Guang Chengzi greeted Huang Long with a slight bow, saying, "Junior Brother Huang Long."

Chi Jingzi, Taiyi, and the others said in unison, "Greetings, Senior Brother Huanglong."

Huang Long quickly returned the greeting: "Senior Brother Guang Chengzi, Senior Brother Nanji, fellow disciples, please come in quickly."

His gaze swept over the two heavenly soldiers who were leading the way. Both of them were True Immortals and were looking at Huanglong with excitement. "Greetings, Great Emperor Ziwei."

Huang Long nodded, casually took out two Star Essence Essences, and tossed them to the two heavenly soldiers.

"You've worked hard, you can go now."

Two essences of star origin drew two silver arcs in the air and landed precisely in the hands of the two heavenly soldiers.

The two heavenly soldiers were taken aback at first, then looked down and almost cried out.

The essence of the stars is formed from the primordial power of all the stars in the heavens, containing extremely pure stellar essence.

For celestial soldiers at the True Immortal realm, a single essence of star origin is enough to save them tens of thousands of years of arduous cultivation, and may even help them break through to the Celestial Immortal realm.

The Purple Star Emperor did indeed bestow a reward!

The heavenly soldier leading the way was showing off quite a bit in front of them.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Your Majesty! I take my leave!"

The two heavenly soldiers were so excited that their voices trembled, and their hands, which were holding the essence of the stars, trembled slightly. They wished they could kneel down and kowtow a few times on the spot.

They hunched over as they left the corridor, jogging away.

Huang Long withdrew his gaze and turned to welcome Guang Chengzi and the others into the main hall.

Before everyone could sit down, footsteps could be heard outside the hall.

"Senior Brother Huanglong, we've arrived!"

An extremely loud voice came from the end of the corridor, as loud as thunder, and the clouds around my Ziwei Imperial Palace scattered.

Huang Long didn't even need to look to know who it was.

Zhao Gongming.

Several people followed behind him.

Jin Ling, with her dignified appearance and graceful demeanor; Wu Dang, with her tall stature and aloof eyes; and the three Xiao sisters, each with their own unique talents.

The heavenly soldier who had led Zhao Gongming was now looking enviously at the two heavenly soldiers who had just left the main hall.

He was holding the essence of the stars in his hands, and his smile was practically reaching his ears.

However, he did not forget his duty and brought Zhao Gongming and the others to Huanglong.

"Greetings, Emperor Ziwei!"

Huang Long clearly saw the envy on the soldier's face and couldn't help but chuckle.

He was not stingy and casually took out another Star Essence Essence and tossed it to the heavenly soldier.

"Go down!"

The celestial soldier caught the essence of the stars and trembled with excitement, bowing repeatedly and saying, "Thank you, Great Emperor! Thank you, Great Emperor!"

The other two heavenly soldiers, who had already received their rewards, were not in a hurry to leave and waited for him with smiles on their faces.

The three walked out of the corridor side by side, talking in hushed tones as they went. One could vaguely hear words like "made it big," "ten thousand years of cultivation," and "the Ziwei Emperor is so generous."

Huang Long shook his head and ushered Zhao Gongming, Jin Ling, and the others into the hall.

After paying respects to the other disciples of the Three Pure Ones in the hall.

With a wave of his hand, streams of spiritual energy gathered in the hall, transforming into jade tables that were neatly arranged on either side of the emperor's throne.

Immediately afterwards, spiritual tea, spiritual fruit, and celestial wine appeared on the table one by one. The items on each jade table were the same, without distinction of thickness.

Looking at this display, Duobao curled his lip: "Junior brother, your hospitality is certainly impeccable, but the quality of these spiritual fruits...!"

He picked up a peach-shaped longevity peach, then put it down with disdain.

Zhao Gongming plopped down, grabbed a pot of immortal wine, took a swig, wiped his mouth, and said nonchalantly, "Senior Brother, stop being so picky. Senior Brother Huanglong isn't the type to do this kind of work."

Duobao rolled his eyes: "Gongming, you have no idea, he was just trying to fool me with longevity peaches. Longevity peaches! Do you think I, Duobao, am someone who can't afford longevity peaches?"

"Then don't eat it." Zhao Gongming laughed heartily. "Give it all to me, I won't mind."

The two bantered back and forth, making everyone in the hall burst into laughter.

Guang Chengzi sat upright before the jade table, picked up his teacup, took a sip, and glanced around the hall, a slight smile playing on his lips.

This atmosphere reminded him of the days when he cultivated in Kunlun Mountain. At that time, the Three Pure Ones had not yet separated, and disciples of the three religions lived together in the mountains, talking about heaven and earth, discussing metaphysics, how carefree they were.

It is truly remarkable that we can all sit together and chat so happily in this Ziwei Imperial Palace.

The Old Man of the South Pole sat beside Guang Chengzi, stroking his beard with a smile. He flicked his whisk and said, "It's been quite a few years since I've seen you all. Thanks to Junior Brother Huanglong, we are all gathered here today. It's truly a blessed occasion."

Inside the main hall, everyone raised their cups in a toast to Huanglong and the Antarctic Immortal.

Huang Long raised his glass in response and drank it all in one gulp.

All the direct disciples of the Sanqing School were present.

Only the two direct disciples of the Western religion's saints were absent.

Huang Long was not in a hurry.

He did invite him, and if he didn't come, it would save Haotian a few peaches.

On this vast and desolate land, the presence of the disciples of the Three Pure Ones is already sufficient.

Therefore, Huanglong stopped thinking about it.

Right now, all he needs to do is maintain good relationships with his fellow disciples in the hall.

Huang Long stood up and raised his glass.

"Fellow disciples, it is my honor, Huanglong, to be here in the Heavenly Court today. This wine is a toast to you all."

Everyone raised their glasses and drank them down in one gulp.

Duobao put down his teacup and brought up the topic again: "Junior Brother Huanglong, you should tell us now what exactly the Peach Banquet is all about, right? You invited us here to eat peaches, you can't just come here to eat a few and then go back, can you?"

To everyone's surprise, Huang Long actually nodded.

"That's right, the reason we sent you to the Heavenly Court was indeed just to eat peaches."
