Chapter 1264: Everyone Shall Witness This Historic Moment

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

Although the Great Zhou Empire already had internal arrangements and even carried out advanced planning, they still sent someone to Mount Kunlun. This person was none other than the leader of the Great Zhou Empire, Liang Pan.

Liang Pan was now seated in the Grand Heavens Pavilion on top of Mount Yujing. On the main seat, there was a youth in purple seated there. He was tapping on the handle of his seat lightly. He was Lin Feng.

Opposite Liang Pan was Lin Feng's second Immediate Disciple, Zhu Yi.

Regardless whether it was Lin Feng, Zhu Yi or Liang Pan, they were all very calm now.

Liang Pan said quietly, “There's only one descendant of the Arctic State royal bloodline left. I can make arrangements to rebuild the Arctic State, a.s.sisted by your brilliant disciple. I don't think anyone will try to cause trouble.”

As he spoke, he looked at Zhu Yi, “I can give out an edict to confer the t.i.tle of an Imperial Consort to your mother. I'll also build temples in the 10 counties in the west and erect a tablet for your mother”

Lin Feng sat on his seat and didn't say anything as he heard Liang Pan's words. He was a little curious as he looked at Liang Pan.

If Meng Bingyun was conferred the t.i.tle of an Imperial Consort, her rank would be much greater than Zhu Hongwu's official wife, Lady Shao.

From the Great Zhou Empire and Zhu Hongwu's standpoint, this was Liang Pan using his status to interfere in the family matters of his subject. This was bound to cause Zhu Hongwu and Lady Shao to lose their face.

While Zhu Hongwu was used to being domineering and controlling everything in his fingertips, remaining loyal to Liang Pan was something that Zhu Hongwu stayed true to.

That's why Zhu Hongwu would still fulfil the edict even though he was furious and trust in Liang Pan's judgment.

To him, this was a sacrifice and humiliation that he would take for the Great Zhou Empire.

This was also the biggest concession that Liang Pan could give. Although the Celestial Sect of Wonders was very powerful, Liang Pan wasn't fit to be a ruler if he had to sacrificed his loyal subject in order to protect himself. Everyone in the Great Zhou Empire would be utterly disappointed in him too and their morale would reach a low.

Most people had a bottomline, which could vary. But once they were touched, there was bound to be some form of retaliation and no further concessions could be given anymore.

Liang Pan's proposition might have cause Zhu Hongwu to lose some of his face, but it was still acceptable to him.

He lifted his head to loo at Liang Pan, “I'm eternally grateful to Your Majesty for your willingness to make my mother an Imperial Consort. But I don't think it's necessary. I just hope that my father is willing to do something at my mother's grave. Shao Qingcheng, who caused my mother's death, must also pay the price too.”

Liang Pan remained silent. Putting Shao Qingcheng's issue aside first, Liang Pan could roughly guess what Zhu Yi meant when he said he wanted Zhu Hongwu to do something at his mother's grave. But Liang Pan would not agree to this even if Zhu Hongwu was willing to do so.

It would cause Zhu Hongwu's Dao heart to collapse and his Martial Will would also be degraded.

Liang Pan turned to look at Lin Feng. Lin Feng smiled and didn't say anything. He gave Zhu Yi the autonomy to decide for himself in this matter. He wasn't going to intervene.

“I will investigate the truth of your mother's death.” Liang Pan understood when he saw this situation. He sighed as he looked at Zhu Yi.

Lin Feng and Zhu Yi's brows also furrowed as they heard him. They also understood Liang Pan's opinion and determination.

Zhu Yi nodded his head and didn't reply. He stood up and bowed towards Lin Feng, “Master, I shall go and prepare for the Sect-Opening Ceremony.”

Lin Feng waved his hand, “Inform Nanhua to bring the rest of the guests to the Grand Heavens Pavilion to observe the ceremony.”

Zhu Yi replied, “Yes, Master.”

After he retreated, Lin Feng didn't say anything much either. He remained calm and continued to tap his hand lightly on the seat handle.

Since Liang Pan had already made his decision, he also turned relaxed. He sat quietly at one side and waited for the start of the ceremony. With Lin Feng's current status and bearing, he was not in any danger on Mount Yujing. But Liang Pan could roughly guess what's going to happen in the future.

Liang Pan could only sigh in his heart as he predicted what was going to happen in the future.

Very soon, s.h.i.+ Zongmao, the Royal House Lord, Thunderclouds Holy Man, Lightning Swordmaster, Supreme Radiance Swordmaster, Heavenly Master Swordmaster and the other guests came to the Grand Heavens Pavilion led by Kang Nanhua.

Mo Xiuluo and Shen Qifeng both perished and the Emperor of the Dead lineage control over the Samsara Sect had almost disappeared. The Samsara Sect was now in a mess but they were slowly being unified.

Although the Samsara Sect had not fully acclimatized themselves with the Celestial Sect of Wonders' actions, they still paid close attention to the Celestial Sect of Wonders.

Ming Zun, the leader of the Path of h.e.l.l who had some past affiliation with the Celestial Sect of Wonders, came to Mount Kunlun personally to express his congratulations.

Besides, the Vast Sea Sword Sect's Vast Sea Swordmaster was still in closed-door cultivation. The Azure Pulse Swordmaster came in place of him, whereas he Intense Flaming Swordmaster from the Intense Flaming Swordmaster also came personally.

The most surprising guest was the Luofu Holy Man, an independent Immortal Soul Third Level cultivator. But all the elders still greeted him as usual when they saw him.

The North Polar Sea was ruled by independent cultivators. The Polar Sea Holy Man, who had an encounter with the Celestial Sect of Wonders when the Secret Manual of Kun Peng opened, also came to Mount Kunlun

Almost every sect and power in the Divine Lands sent a representative over and they were even important figures in their respective sects.

No one from the Great Void Sect came. But no one was surprised. Awhile before, the new leader of the Great Void Sect, Lin Daohan, announced that Mount Baiyun would be sealed in the days to come. The Great Void Sect cultivators would cease to roam the Divine Lands anymore.

But Lin Daohan still expressed his congratulations to Lin Feng for the successful attainment of the Immortal Soul Stage by all of his Immediate Disciple.

As for Mount Shu, they did the same in order to relieve the awkwardness.

The Heavenly Master Swordmaster, Lightning Swordmaster and the rest were all in the Grand Heavens Pavilion right now. They appeared normal and didn't speak much.

After the conclusion of the War of the Two Worlds, the Mount Shu Sword Sect also announced that they were going to seal the mountain.

Lin Feng sat on his seat and watched quietly as everyone streamed into the pavilion. The s.p.a.ce in the Grand Heavens Pavilion seemed to be boundless. Besides Liang Pan, s.h.i.+ Zongmao, the Heavenly Master Swordmaster, Thunderclouds Holy Man and a bunch of elders, they all entered the pavilion together regardless of their cultivation.

There were thousands in the Grand Heavens Pavilion, but no one felt squeezy. Rather, it seemed very s.p.a.cious and everyone felt as if they were in the Starry Sea.

When everyone arrived, Lin Feng smiled and said, “Thank you all for coming to observe the ceremony today.”

No one dared to speak and Lin Feng pointed his finger in void s.p.a.ce. A light projection appeared and revealed the image of the Heart-Revealing Steps at the foot of Yun Peak below Mount Yujing amidst the Kunlun Mountains.

The Celestial Sect of Wonders' Successive Disciple and External Household Manager had already carried out a pre-selection before a bunch of hopefuls were here at the Heart-Revealing Steps. All of them were very serious as they looked at the Heart-Revealing Steps and the Yun Peak that seemed to stretch into the sky.

Liang Pan, s.h.i.+ Zongmao, the Thunderclouds Holy Man and the rest were not surprised by their current state. They were also aware of how the Heart-Revealing Steps worked.

Ever since the Celestial Sect of Wonders was established, there would always be some who tried to stir trouble. But all of them were sieved out, without any exceptions.

Right now, no one dared to do so anymore. That's because no one had ever succeeded before and also because of the Celestial Sect of Wonders' current position. Most could tell which side they should be loyal towards and which side would provide them with the greatest growth prospects.

Just like the previous Sect-Opening Ceremonies, there were those who pa.s.sed the test and there were those who eliminated this time.

Those who were eliminated would be guided by the Celestial Sect of Wonders' External Household Manager. If they were willing to remain in the Cloud Mirror City, Shazhou County or Celestial Wonders World to await their opportunity, there would be arrangements for them. For those who wanted to return home, they would also be sent back.

However, some sects also monitored those who failed the test.

They reckoned that there were many still many talents among those who failed.

As for those who succeeded the test and managed to reach Yun Peak, the scene in front of them changed even before they could even calm down from their delight.

In the Grand Heavens Pavilion, Lin Feng clapped his palms lightly and the entire Mount Yujing started to jerk slightly. The leaves of the Black Heavenly Treasure Tree shook and the Yin-Yang Sea below raged with waves. Heaven-Revolving Purple Clouds seemed to surge too, as they undulated in void s.p.a.ce.

The ceiling of the Grand Heavens Pavilion seemed to transform. It seemed to connect with the boundless sky and the universe. Countless luminaries shone together and the radiances became extremely blinding. It's as if many bright, golden lamps had projected a sky full of stars in the Grand Heavens Pavilion.

The bunch of new disciples that pa.s.sed the test were also teleported into the Grand Heavens Pavilion at this point.

Lin Feng stood in the middle of the river of stars quietly and he seemed to be the center of the Heavens and Earth. While his size appeared to be normal, he gave the feeling that his body filled the entire world.

Liang Pan, s.h.i.+ Zongmao, the Royal House Lord and the rest stood quietly at where they were. Their seats seemed to draw further and further apart and each of them controlled a small luminary. They were scattered around Lin Feng.

The Nascent Soul Stage Grandmasters, Aurous Core Stage cultivators and Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators followed their sect's Immortal Soul Stage Elders. They were shocked as they saw this scene.

Lin Feng pointed with his finger and void s.p.a.ce broke open. He connected with the Divine Lands.

Many light projections appeared in the sky above the Celestial Wonders World and Kunlun Mountains. Everyone could clearly see what was going on in the Grand Heavens Pavilion. In the eyes of the ordinary mortals, everything seemed very divine.

Lin Feng's voice resonated in the Divine Lands right now, “I am Lin Feng. Today, I shall confer my disciples honorific t.i.tles. Everyone shall witness this historic moment!”
