The wedding was livestreamed by the sister, revealing his identity as a Taoist priest.

A deep dragon's roar rose from the depths of the earth.

The impact was so strong that the soles of people's feet went numb, and Lei Shan rolled directly out of the car.

They tore the car door off.

"Enemy attack! Everyone on alert!"

Xiao Zong flashed and appeared three steps in front of Shen Nianqing.

With palms facing outwards, transparent ripples immediately spread through the space.

Ye Hongyu, wearing high heels, flipped off the roof of the car.

The slender heels pounded two holes in the bluestone slab.

He held two crimson fireballs in his hands, his face deathly pale as he stared at the ground.

Shen Cang, leaning on his cane, walked at the very back.

"Old Zhou! Have the people on the perimeter set up the highest level of defense!"

"This energy fluctuation is strange! Something underground is about to break through the soil!"

The Shen family's situation was even more chaotic.

As soon as Shen Xingzhou got out of the car, his legs went weak, like noodles.

He plopped down on the lawn, clinging tightly to a nearby tree with both hands.

"An earthquake? Or a volcanic eruption?"

Shen Xingzhou yelled at the top of his lungs and then turned to shout at his bodyguard.

"Quick! Quickly surround Nianqing! Take her into the air-raid shelter!"

A dozen or so bodyguards in black rushed over, stumbling and scrambling.

They surrounded Shen Nianqing in layers, protecting her in the very center.

Gu Xingluo was so frightened that she squatted down on the ground and hugged her head tightly with both hands.

Chen Xiaoyu and Lin Keke hugged each other's necks, too scared to even breathe.

The entire manor was on high alert, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

Just as the five guardians of Tian Shu were preparing to fight to the death.

Dan Chenzi jumped off the truck behind.

He held a white jade whisk in one hand and stroked his beard with the other.

Looking at this group of people who seemed to be facing a formidable enemy, Dan Chenzi suddenly smiled.

He smiled warmly and gently, without the slightest hint of nervousness.

"Don't panic, everyone. Put your weapons away."

Dan Chenzi's voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.

He walked slowly and deliberately to Shen Nianqing.

"Miss Shen has been frightened."

Dan Chenzi flicked his whisk and pointed to the ground.

"This is not the work of any evil spirits, nor is it an earthquake."

"It's the dragon vein that Senior Brother Qingyuan laid out in this manor before."

Dan Chenzi looked up and glanced at the huge Yongzhou Ding in the truck bed.

"The Yongzhou Cauldron is a divine object that suppresses the fortune of the nine provinces."

"Dragon veins are the source of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."

"Now that the divine cauldron has entered the house, the dragon vein has sensed this national-protecting aura of the same origin."

"They're cheering and jumping for joy down below, coming out to welcome the tripod."

The room fell silent as soon as he said that.

Lei Shan stared wide-eyed at the ground below, then at Dan Chenzi.

"Joyful...jubilant?"

"You call this kind of commotion, which could shake the earth's crust, jubilation?"

The fireball in Ye Hongyu's hand went out with a "poof".

I wiped the cold sweat from my forehead and felt like I'd just acted like an idiot.

Shen Cang leaned on his cane and exhaled a long breath.

He waved his hand, signaling the people in Tian Shu to lower their guard.

Shen Xingzhou was still holding the ornamental tree, peeking out half of his head.

"Master, are you sure it's just welcoming us, and not planning to come out and eat us all?"

Dan Chenzi ignored him and turned to look at the four core disciples behind him.

"Raise the cauldron!"

The four disciples in dark blue Taoist robes responded in unison.

He climbed onto the carriage and re-tied the Yongzhou Ding with thick hemp rope.

A thick, solid wooden bar pressed down on my shoulder.

With the combined effort of the four men, they managed to lift the massive bronze object, which weighed several tons.

Dan Chenzi closed his eyes and quickly made calculations with his left hand.

He muttered incantations and performed mysterious footwork steps.

Strolling and stopping on the manor's spacious lawn.

Sometimes he would take three steps to the left, and sometimes he would take two steps back to the right.

It took a full incense stick's time to walk there.

Dan Chenzi suddenly stopped and opened his eyes wide.

He pointed the white jade whisk in his hand to an open space in the very center of the lawn.

"The key to the formation is here!"

Dan Chenzi shouted loudly.

"Put the cauldron down!"

Four disciples carried the large cauldron and strode to that spot.

Without any hesitation, the four of them simultaneously relaxed their shoulders.

"boom!"

The Yongzhou tripod crashed heavily onto the lawn.

Dirt flew everywhere, and a shallow crater half a meter deep was smashed into the ground.

The large cauldron was firmly planted in the pit, its three legs standing upright, completely still.

The moment the cauldron hit the ground.

The dark golden aura from underground suddenly surged.

Dan Chenzi quickly formed hand seals in front of his chest, his ten fingers flying, turning into a blur of afterimages.

He suddenly bit his tongue, spitting a mouthful of saliva onto the white jade whisk.

"The Supreme Star, ever-responsive!"

"To exorcise evil spirits and protect your life!"

"Borrowing the power of the dragon vein, the nine cauldrons suppress the fortune!"

Dan Chenzi suddenly swung the whisk upwards.

A visible cyan aura struck the belly of the Yongzhou Cauldron.

"Buzz!"

The cauldron emitted an extremely long and deep roar.

It doesn't resemble the clash of metal, but rather the worship of ancient people to heaven and earth.

Immediately afterwards, the soil beneath the manor began to churn violently.

A blinding golden light pierced through the ground and shot into the sky.

Golden light swirled and twisted in mid-air.

In the blink of an eye, it coalesced into a phantom golden dragon tens of feet long.

The golden dragon's whiskers and mane bristled, its scales shimmering brilliantly in the night.

It let out a deafening roar in mid-air.

Then the dragon head turned and stared intently at the Yongzhou Cauldron below.

Without the slightest hesitation.

With unstoppable momentum, the golden dragon swooped down.

"Boom!"

The golden light instantly subsided and disappeared into the cauldron.

The large cauldron, which was originally covered with verdigris, suddenly developed a layer of dark gold patterns on its surface.

The totems on the map of Kyushu seemed to come alive.

The ripples representing the Yellow River's watercourse faintly conveyed the sound of rushing water.

The five guardians of Tian Shu stood not far away, completely dumbfounded.

"Forcibly seal the dragon vein into the divine cauldron..."

Shen Cang's voice was so hoarse it was almost unrecognizable.

"Use the Nine Cauldrons to suppress the earth's energy, and use the dragon veins to nourish the divine creatures."

"Such extraordinary abilities, capable of seizing the very essence of heaven and earth, just how far has the Celestial Master reached!"

Lei Shan swallowed hard and patted Xiao Zong on the shoulder.

"Old Xiao, did you see the hand seals that old Taoist priest made just now?"

Xiao Zong shook his head blankly.

"I didn't see it clearly. I just felt that my spatial ability was completely locked down for a moment just now."

"When that dragon charged down, I didn't have the strength to move a single finger."

Shen Xingzhou was still sitting on the ground, looking at the large cauldron that emitted a dark golden light.

Then he looked at Dan Chenzi, who was standing next to the cauldron.

"I thought he was just going to give me a tripod to put in the yard as a big ashtray."

"So he installed a nuclear reactor in our house."

Gu Xinglu squatted down beside him and pinched Shen Xingzhou's thigh hard.

Shen Xingzhou let out a loud cry of pain.

Why are you pinching me?!

"Let me see if I'm dreaming."

Gu Xingluo spoke with righteous indignation.

Why don't you pinch yourself?

"I'm afraid of pain."

At the moment the golden dragon entered the cauldron.

The surrounding air has changed.

The cold wind of early winter night suddenly turned as warm as spring.

Shen Cang suddenly raised his head and stared intently at the surrounding green belt.

The originally withered and yellow ornamental trees are now sprouting new buds at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The withered grass on the lawn turned lush and green within seconds.

The concentration of spiritual energy in the manor is skyrocketing at an alarming rate.

"This...this concentration of spiritual energy..."

Shen Cang took a deep breath of spiritual energy.

Turning his head, he looked at Shen Nianqing with eyes filled with extreme shock and envy.

"I finally understand..."

"What truly constitutes a blessed land...?"
