Houtu is infatuated with me, so I made her lean against the wall.

Seeing Qin Ming and Hou Tu laughing heartily, all the cultivators looked puzzled.

Only Di Jun stared blankly at the Great Sage's Blood Wine, a thoughtful expression on his face.

"This humble Taoist congratulates you two on your wedding. This is the innate treasure, the Linked Heart Knot, which allows lovers to complement each other's laws and share magical power. As long as their hearts are together, they can be teleported to each other regardless of space or distance."

"I hope you two fellow Daoists like it."

Just as the cultivators were wondering what was going on, Hongjun, along with Haotian and Yaochi, arrived on auspicious clouds.

Seeing this, Qin Ming pouted and said, "Fellow Daoist Hongjun is as stingy as ever."

This chain of concentric knots, though bearing the name of a supreme innate treasure, lacks the substance of one; it is merely a useless spiritual treasure.

Even in terms of value, it is not as good as the Taiyi Whisk, a top-grade innate spiritual treasure given by the Three Pure Ones.

"Hehe, fellow Daoist, you jest."

Hongjun's expression froze, and then he looked slightly embarrassed.

He and Qin Ming are competitors, so how could he possibly give Qin Ming something truly good?

The reason he arrived so late was not only to show off his status, but also because he wanted to see what gifts the cultivators had given him.

After all, as the Dao Ancestor, the gifts he gives cannot be inferior to those of other cultivators, right?

Therefore, after all the cultivators had finished presenting their gifts, Hongjun carefully selected this innate treasure from his collection.

"Never mind, I never expected to receive any gifts from my wedding anyway."

Qin Ming waved his hand. Today was a joyous day for him and Houtu, and he didn't want to get too entangled with Hongjun. After Bodhi led Hongjun to his seat, he gave Nuwa a wink.

Nuwa understood and immediately came to the two of them.

"The auspicious time has arrived. Please, the newlyweds, perform the wedding ceremony."

"Respect the Great Way, unite as one in heart and mind, and share both fortune and misfortune!"

"Secondly, I pay homage to the Great God Pangu, to express my gratitude for his nurturing grace!"

"The newlyweds exchange vows; from this day forward, they will be of one mind and work together to explore the Great Dao!"

"The Great Dao ascends once more. Today, the Dao Venerable of the Primordial World, Qin Ming, the Martial Ancestor of the Human Race, and Houtu, the Lord of the Earth Dao, the Chief of the Witch Clan, of the Pangu Clan, are happily married, achieving a Dao marriage. The Great Dao bears witness to this."

As Nuwa finished speaking, the Eye of the Great Dao rapidly condensed, scanned the wedding venue, and then uttered a vast and ancient voice: "Granted!"

As soon as he finished speaking, countless merits and virtues began to gather in the sky.

Upon seeing this, the cultivators' faces immediately lit up with greed.

Unfortunately, this was Qin Ming's territory. Although they were greedy, they dared not act rashly and could only look on with envy at the Great Dao Merit in the sky.

The Great Way's merits are divided into four parts.

The largest portion, approximately three-fifths of the Great Dao's merit, descended upon Qin Ming and Hou Tu, and was collected by the two of them.

Nuwa kept the remaining two-fifths and put them into the red embroidered ball.

In an instant, the red embroidered ball burst into a dazzling light.

The innate divine prohibition evolves on its own.

Before long, it evolved into forty-eight innate divine restrictions, thus creating a supreme innate merit spiritual treasure.

The remaining one-fifth was distributed among the dragons participating in the Dao marriage, Qin Ming's disciples, and the twelve Ancestral Witches.

"Thank you all for coming here to participate in the Taoist marriage between me and Houtu."

"On this auspicious day, I hereby proclaim to the primordial world!"

"From this day forward, I hereby establish the Celestial Court, and the Three Immortal Islands of Chaos shall serve as its training grounds!"

"Celestial Court, rise!"

Just as the group of cultivators thought that the next thing to do was to have a banquet, exchange ideas, and preach, Qin Ming brought Houtu to the throne of the Immortal King and the throne of the Immortal Queen in the Immortal King Palace and said loudly.

As Qin Ming finished speaking, the Three Immortal Islands of Chaos trembled violently.

In an instant, the Chaos Three Immortal Islands, which originally existed in another dimension, began to border the Primordial World.

The enormous Chaos Three Immortal Islands pressed down on the waters of the East Sea, causing towering waves.

However, before the source of the East Sea could be damaged, an invisible force suddenly lifted up the three immortal islands of Chaos, causing them to rise and evolve continuously.

For every 10,000 feet of elevation gain, countless islands are formed.

At the same time, clouds gathered, and chaotic spiritual energy burst forth.

A dense Taoist aura permeates the many islands.

The spiritual root grew rapidly, and the spiritual treasure evolved quickly.

Time passed gradually, and when the three immortal islands of chaos evolved into the thirty-six heavens, Qin Ming and Houtu flew out: "The Great Dao ascends once more. I, the Primordial Pure World Dao Venerable and the Martial Ancestor of Humanity, cannot bear to see the order of the Primordial World incomplete. Therefore, I establish the Immortal Court, and I am the Lord of the Immortal Court, the Supreme Primordial Martial Immortal King. May the Great Dao bear witness!"

"Upon ascending the Great Dao, I, the patriarch of the Wu Clan, the master of the Primordial Earthly Dao, and Houtu of the Pangu Clan, hereby decree that the Netherworld shall be subordinate to the Celestial Court. From this day forward, the Netherworld shall be revered by the Celestial Court, and I shall be the Celestial Court's Supreme Saint, the White Jade Earth Mother Celestial Queen. May the Great Dao bear witness!"

"Ascending the Great Dao once more, I, Nuwa, the Holy Mother of Humanity and the Lord of Humanity in the Primordial World, wish to join the Celestial Court. I am the Supreme Holy Mother of the Celestial Court, Nuwa, may the Great Dao bear witness!"

"Upon ascending the Great Dao, we, the Dragon Kings of the East Sea (Ao Guang), South Sea (Ao Qin), North Sea (Ao Shun), and West Sea (Ao Run), of our Dragon Clan, now submit to the Celestial Court, awaiting its commands, and fulfilling our duties of controlling the clouds and rain throughout the primordial world. May the Great Dao bear witness!"

As Qin Ming finished speaking, Houtu and the Four Dragon Kings of the Seas shouted in unison.

Instantly, the Eye of the Great Dao once again gathered boundless merits of the Great Dao, which were received by Qin Ming, Nuwa, Houtu, and the Dragon Clan.

The next moment, the golden dragon of fortune, which was originally 100,000 feet long, surged wildly, merging with the fortune of the Netherworld and the dragon clans of the Four Seas. With the blessing of the Heavenly Radiance Stone, it rapidly merged.

It grew to 110,000 zhang, 120,000 zhang... and finally surged to 200,000 zhang before finally coming to an end!

This scene left all the cultivators dumbfounded.

Such a massive golden dragon of fortune was something they had never seen before in their lives.

Once they join the Celestial Court, their cultivation speed will increase dramatically.

Such temptation made the cultivators eager to try.

Hongjun, Dijun, Taiyi, and all the demons looked extremely grim upon seeing this scene.

In the past, it was fine that Qin Ming hadn't established any power base.

No matter how strong he becomes, Qin Ming will not participate in the struggle for supremacy in the primordial world.

But now, Qin Ming has established the Celestial Court. What is his intention?

Is Qin Ming preparing to conquer the primordial world?

If that's the case, things could get complicated.

"Fellow Daoist Jingshi, what is the meaning of this?"

Hongjun stared at Qin Ming with a dark expression.

"Fellow Daoist, please rest assured, I will not participate in the primordial conflict."

"The reason for establishing the Celestial Court is simply to maintain order in the primordial world, to establish celestial rules, to restrain cultivators in the primordial world, and to enable the primordial world to develop better."

A faint smile appeared on Qin Ming's face.

The reason he established the Celestial Court but did not bestow immortal titles upon any of his disciples was to avoid participating in this great calamity.

After all, his goal was not the primordial world, but the Heavenly Dao, the Chaos Gods in that boundless chaos, and the cultivators of other worlds.

With the support of Hongjun, the demon race will inevitably become saints as time goes by.

If I were to bestow immortal titles upon Bodhi and the others, they would be less likely to interfere in the conflict between the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan.

In contrast, by establishing the Celestial Court, he can temporarily sever the connection between Bodhi and others and himself, making it perfectly logical for him to intervene in the conflict between the Lich King and the Demon King in the future.

By setting an example, if Hongjun still intervenes, Qin Ming, Houtu, and Nuwa will be able to join forces to resist Hongjun.

He refused to believe that Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao could now fight against three opponents alone.

Upon hearing Qin Ming's words, Hongjun's expression shifted repeatedly.

He always felt that Qin Ming had a deeper plan.

But Qin Ming didn't say anything, so he could only sit there, his expression uncertain.
