After deciding to join Vastheaven Palace, Vastheaven Palace had already begun to treat Zhou Tong as one of their own.
Next up was the welcoming banquet. Aside from the cultivators who were either in secluded meditation or adventuring, virtually everyone in Vastheaven Palace was present.
Everyone chatted and chatted with each other. Vastheaven Palace didn't care about status, and everyone addressed each other as' brothers'. Even Daolords were referred to as' big brothers' here. The atmosphere here was quite relaxed, far more so than what Zhou Tong had experienced at the Badlands Court.
During this banquet, Zhou Tong was able to get to know more than half of the cultivators of Vastheaven Palace, including the three current Daolords of Vastheaven Palace – Solesky, Battlemaster, and Brightfish.
"Brother Tribulation Fire, Vastheaven Palace is quite large. Many of the estates are currently unoccupied. You can choose any one of them. They are all of the same size. Once you choose, you can change them as you wish! "After the banquet, Daolord Solesky's avatar led Zhou Tong to choose an estate.
"This one!" Zhou Tong didn't think too much about it, choosing a random estate.
"You'll need to attend an entrance ceremony after joining Vastheaven Palace. When do you plan to hold it?" Daolord Solesky continued to ask.
"There's no need to waste too much time. Let's do it in three days!" Zhou Tong replied.
"Alright! I'll make the announcement right away! "Solesky nodded.
"There's one thing I want to see. I want to see all of the divine abilities and legacies that Vastheaven Palace currently possesses. Might I ask what price I'll have to pay?" Zhou Tong suddenly spoke out.
"Divine abilities and legacies are quite expensive in the outside world. Vastheaven Palace naturally has a large collection of them." Daolord Solesky laughed. "The entire Vastheaven Territory has been under our control for countless years now. We are the sacred land of the entire Vastheaven Territory, and we have plenty of divine abilities and secret arts."
"Just the legacies and techniques below the Daolord level alone would cost at least sixty million cubes of chaos nectar." The more Daolord Solesky spoke, the more smug he became. "However, the brothers of Vastheaven Palace would only need three million cubes of chaos nectar."
"Where's the Dao Lord's legacy?" Zhou Tong asked.
Daolord Solesky felt rather awkward upon hearing the topic of Daolord legacies. "We have far fewer Daolord legacies here. Less than ten of them, and a portion of them were left behind by some of my brothers in the past."
"In the end, Vastheaven Palace's foundation is still far inferior to the Dao Alliance or Ji Ning's Brightshore Kingdom …" Zhou Tong was beginning to understand this. Vastheaven Palace's foundation was one of the deepest amongst the many realms, because it had been founded a very long time ago.
However, compared to the likes of the Dao Alliance or the Brightshore Kingdom, which had Hegemons protecting them, the difference was simply too great.
"Brother Tribulation Flame, we of Vastheaven Palace treat our own brothers well. However, if you wish to browse through Daolord legacies, there are certain conditions, "Daolord Solesky continued.
"What conditions?" Zhou Tong asked.
Daolord Solesky said, "If you wish to browse through a World-level cultivator below the Daolord level, we'll test you to see if your path is suitable for a legacy. If you wish to browse through a Daolord's legacy, however, you'll have to produce a Daolord legacy of your own."
"Brother Tribulation Flame, after the ceremony, all you need to do is produce a Daolord legacy and you'll be able to browse through all of Vastheaven Palace's divine abilities and techniques!" Daolord Solesky continued, "In addition, Battlemaster and I will be able to browse through the legacies you produce. In fact, all of our future brothers of Vastheaven Palace will be able to browse through them as well."
"Understood!" Zhou Tong nodded.
He had more than ten Daolord legacies in his possession, including the legacy of Daolord Allgod, the [Firelord Chapter], which was infinitely close to an Omega Dao, and the various legacies he had found on his way here. He had even slain other Daolords and acquired spoils of war.
He had far more Daolord legacies than Vastheaven Palace could freely sell. But of course, the legacies below the Daolord level were far more valuable than the legacies Vastheaven Palace had.
But of course, Zhou Tong knew exactly why he had so many things. This was because he was the only person in the entire universe who wasn't bound by lifeblood oaths and could freely pass on the legacies he had acquired. Others didn't have the ability to do so, which was why Vastheaven Palace had far fewer legacies than Zhou Tong himself. … …
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Zhou Tong quickly passed through Vastheaven Palace's entrance ceremony.
The entrance ceremony was an unprecedentedly grand affair.
Zhou Tong could be said to be the first Daolord to join Vastheaven Palace. This was because virtually all of the Daolords of Vastheaven Palace had come from within Vastheaven Palace.
Only after the entrance ceremony did Zhou Tong truly become a member of Vastheaven Palace.
This caused Solesky, Battlemaster, and Brightfish to let out sighs of relief in their hearts. Previously, they had only spoken of joining, but now that they had truly joined, they could truly be considered brothers of Vastheaven Palace.
In addition, after joining Vastheaven Palace, Zhou Tong would naturally become the Fourth Palace Lord of Vastheaven Palace!
According to the rules of Vastheaven Palace, all Daolords were Palace Lords.
As soon as Zhou Tong entered, he became one of the highest-ranking members of Vastheaven Palace.
After the entrance ceremony, Solesky led Zhou Tong to the Scripture Pavilion within Vastheaven Palace.
"Brother Tribulation Flame, according to the rules, have you prepared a Daolord-level legacy?" Daolord Solesky asked.
Zhou Tong nodded slightly, then handed over a jade slip to Daolord Solesky. "On the way to the Badlands Territory, I killed a Daolord of the Fourth Step who trained in the Dao of Wood. I extracted from his soul the complete Dao he had used to become a Daolord of the Fourth Step. It is here."
"He killed a Daolord of the Fourth Step?!" Daolord Solesky was very curious, and he immediately sent his divine sense into the jade slip.
As soon as he did, he was shocked. The Dao of this Daolord of the Fourth Step was not to be underestimated!
"A Daolord of the Fourth Step who cultivates the Dao of Wood, and one of the most powerful defensive Daos of the Fourth Step. He should've been able to kill even the weakest of Eternal Emperors … but he actually killed a Daolord of the Fourth Step?" The more Solesky read, the more stunned he felt.
A long time later, he looked at Zhou Tong. "Tribulation Flame, what level of power have you reached?"
"There should be very few Eternal Emperors below the level of Archon of the Sacred Cities who are a match for me." Zhou Tong thought carefully for a moment, then replied.
Eternal Emperors were divided into different levels. Generally speaking, aside from Omega Emperors and Emperors who relied on external treasures, there were a total of four levels.
The weakest were those who had become Emperors through extremely weak Daos. These Emperors generally didn't dare to cause trouble, because many of the more monstrously talented Daolords who wanted to make a name for themselves would seek out and kill these Emperors.
The stronger ones were Eternal Emperors who were on par with the most supreme of Daolords. The stronger ones were Emperors who were on the level of Archon of the Sacred Cities, followed by Hegemons.
