Along the way, the stone steps paved with white jade were filled with a simple and unadorned aura.
It seemed that because it had been covered in dust for many years, there were few signs of human habitation. This place was particularly quiet. Even if people knew that there were already people here, it still gave people a feeling of being an ownerless paradise.
"It's really a good place!" Xu Que couldn't help but sigh.
In this place, he was surprisingly relaxed and happy. His whole person entered a very relaxed state, very ethereal.
Every flower, every tree, every grain of sand, and every stone here were like independent individuals. Looking at a random tree, it was as if one could feel its past and present life. Everywhere was full of traces of Taoist Connotation.
Zixia Fairy looked around and nodded gently as she said, "Places where the Celestial Emperor has stayed will be like this. All living things will be subtly influenced!"
Such a place had been seen in the Celestial Cloud Continent.
It was even rumored that, in the realm above the Celestial Emperor, grass would grow wherever their feet touched. When the Gods traveled, even if it was a desert, it would instantly become a grassland with ten miles of flowers blooming!
"You two, the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony will begin soon. Please move forward as soon as possible!" At this time, the deep voice came from above.
Xu Que and Zixia Fairy looked at each other, stepped forward silently, and set foot on the top of the jade steps.
In front of them was a large formation of tens of thousands of practitioners. All of them surrounded an empty platform of the Taoist Sanctum. No one approached the center of the Taoist Sanctum, as if they were isolated by an invisible restriction.
In the center of the empty Taoist Sanctum, there was a huge stone that was tens of meters high. It was snow-white, crystal clear, and full of brilliance.
Even if it was sealed by a restriction, one could feel a kind of heavenly power emanating from this huge stone from afar!
"This … how is this possible?" Xu Que's face immediately changed, and he felt a little strange.
Zixia Fairy looked at Xu Que and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xu Que frowned and said, "This huge stone is exactly the same as my Heavenly Book of Taiyi. No, to be precise, this huge stone is the Heavenly Book of Taiyi, and it's a hundred times bigger!"
After hearing this, Zixia Fairy suddenly looked surprised.
She had also heard that the One Chosen by Heaven had the Heavenly Book of Taiyi, but she had never seen the One Chosen by Heaven, let alone the Heavenly Book of Taiyi. At this moment, when she heard Xu Que say that the huge stone was also the Heavenly Book of Taiyi, she could not help but feel surprised.
However, Xu Que was even more shocked. He had never expected that such a huge Heavenly Book of Taiyi would be hidden in this place. At first glance, it looked like a huge stone. Compared to this huge stone, his Heavenly Book of Taiyi was like a dwarf in front of it.
Clang!
At this moment, a deafening sound of metal striking rang out, and a buzzing sound resounded in all directions.
All the cultivators outside the Taoist Sanctum instantly stopped talking. Xu Que and Zixia Fairy also looked forward.
A few figures appeared on the mountain opposite the dojo, consisting of both men and women, young and old. Their figures were encapsulated by powerful auras, causing them to be extremely intimidating.
Xu Que recognized one of the women in white. It was the woman he had seen in the cave before, Xuanyuan Hong.
"Sure enough, these people have come out. Five Celestial Kings and one Celestial Prime. Where are the others hiding?" Xu Que's face froze as he whispered to himself.
There were far more powerful people from the Heaven Palace Sect in the cave.
Many of the cultivators present, even the ancestors of the Celestial Kings from the major forces, bowed their heads in a subservient manner.
They were all Celestial Kings, but in front of the Celestial Kings and Celestial Primes of the Heaven Palace Sect, they didn't dare to treat them as peers.
According to the times, these people from the Heaven Palace Sect were the real ancients. Their strength was unfathomable. The ancestors of the Celestial Kings of the major forces were surprised to find that their auras were far inferior to any of the Celestial Kings of the Heaven Palace Sect.
"These are the real Celestial Kings and Celestial Primes." Zixia Fairy's voice rang in Xu Que's ears.
She said softly, "The Spiritual Qi of that period can't be compared to later times. The cultivation of those people from the Heaven Palace Sect is far more stable than the cultivation of all the cultivators now. Their Celestial Core Power is condensed to an unimaginable degree, and after such a long period of precipitation, these Celestial Kings are only half a step away from the Celestial Prime stage, and those Celestial Primes are only a step away from the Celestial Emperor stage."
"I can see that." Xu Que nodded.
The auras of Xuanyuan Hong and the other Celestial Kings were obviously much stronger than those of Li Xuanqi and the two Celestial Kings from the Sage Sect that he had met before. Although they were all Celestial Kings, the two sides were not at the same level at all.
And Zixia Fairy's words made Xu Que understand the reason behind it.
It was like an ordinary person who grew up eating natural ingredients and breathing fresh air, or who grew up eating all kinds of gutter oil and junk food and breathing in smog. At the same age, their physiques would be different.
Excluding some special cases, normally, the former must be healthy and less sick, while the latter were mostly weak and sickly.
The strong cultivators of the Heaven Palace Sect were healthy and less sick.
"Since all of you have come here, you must have received news from the Heaven Palace Sect. The shackles of the Heaven Continent are about to disappear. Countless foreign enemies have been eyeing the Heaven Continent covetously for many years. A great disaster will befall the Heaven Continent. As people of the Heaven Continent, we should work together to resist the foreign enemies and protect our homeland."
At this time, a middle-aged male Celestial King walked out from the top of the mountain and began to speak boldly.
They didn't even introduce themselves, nor did they understand the information and origins of everyone present. They just started on their own.
But no one present dared to object. They all listened in silence and maintained a respectful attitude.
Among the crowd, Xu Que also saw the Jade Lake Saint, Bai Cailing, as well as a group of female disciples of the Jade Lake. They were all standing behind several white-haired old women at the Celestial King stage, listening with their heads bowed.
The people of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect had also arrived. Xu Que saw Ji Wuyun and the Master of the Ji Family, who were also standing behind several old Celestial Kings.
"Well, the time has come, and the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony has officially begun. The huge stone you see in front of you is the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi. All those who are above the Heaven Celestial stage and below the Celestial King stage, release your Mind Sense and try to see if you can communicate with the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi. This process will last for three days. Before the end is announced, you can keep trying."
At this time, the middle-aged man had finished his opening remarks and announced the start of the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony, asking everyone to release their Mind Sense.
This sloppy development seemed to be very different from the grand name of the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony, and many people couldn't react.
"As expected of the seniors of the Heaven Palace Sect. They do things swiftly and decisively, and they don't stick to formalities. They are really something we should learn from. Well, the disciples of my sect, listen to the seniors of the Heaven Palace Sect. Quickly release your Mind Sense and communicate with the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi. " An old man from a certain sect immediately flattered them and urged the disciples of his sect to start.
If a sect could produce a One Chosen by Heaven, it would be a source of supreme glory and glory. It might even rise to prominence because of this. The One Chosen by Heaven who was valued by the Heaven Palace Sect was enough to make the whole sect rise to the heavens.
At the same time, on the top of the mountain opposite the Taoist Sanctum.
Several strongmen of the Heaven Palace Sect were expressionless as they watched the cultivators sitting cross-legged outside the Taoist Sanctum, trying to communicate with the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi.
The middle-aged man who had spoken had a trace of impatience and disdain on his face.
"Can these good-for-nothings really produce a One Chosen by Heaven?" He shook his head and said coldly.
Xuanyuan Hong sneered, "If it weren't for the fact that the Heaven Palace Sect has no one to use, and if it weren't for the fact that the One Chosen by Heaven can open the door to the Heaven Continent and the Divine Realm, we wouldn't have found such a motley crew."
"Alas, it's a pity that we managed to cultivate Xuanyuan Wanrong with great difficulty, but in the end, she escaped our control. Now we don't know whether she's alive or dead, and there's no news of her." An old man sighed, feeling quite regretful.
"Oh, I've said it before. That b * tch is quite shrewd, but you thought you could control her. In the end, she cultivated to the Celestial Prime stage, stole the Celestial King's Secret Record, broke the mark that the Dean had left in her Mind Sense, and ran away." As Xuanyuan Hong spoke, her eyes were full of murderous intent.
"Alas, let's not talk about it. The shackles of the Heaven Continent will begin to dissipate in less than ten days. We can only gain a foothold by controlling the new One Chosen by Heaven before that. When the deans wake up, the Heaven Continent will still be ours." Another person sighed and said calmly.
After that, they didn't say anything more. They each stood to one side, watching the movements in the Taoist Sanctum.
Xu Que and Zixia Fairy had also arrived around the Taoist Sanctum and squeezed into the crowd.
Many people had already sat down cross-legged and released their Mind Sense.
But most people's Mind Sense couldn't pass through that layer of restriction, let alone communicate with the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi.
"This is a little interesting. Now I guess I can understand what the so-called One Chosen by Heaven is all about." Xu Que stared at the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up into a smile as he whispered to Zixia Fairy.
