Following Guo Sihai's greeting, Chaotian Sect Liu Chaotian, who had already arrived, took the initiative to greet him, and his eyes immediately fell on Lu Yuanshan.
"The fact that Master Lu is here really brings glory to the humble sect."
"Fellow Taoists, please come in quickly!"
Liu Chaotian's face was full of smiles. When he saw that Lu Yuanshan's Qingshan Sect was not only present, but also in person, he was smiling from ear to ear. He didn't put on any airs at all and was very cordial.
When Liu Chaotian received Lu Yuanshan and his entourage into the main hall and sat down.
Over at Shenxiao Palace, seeing Lu Yuanshan being treated so specially and being personally received by the leader of the Chaotian Sect, there was a look of disbelief on their faces.
More often than not, it’s something that’s taken for granted.
Lu Yuanshan's famous name is now well known in the Chu Kingdom, and many monks know it.
Many people even know and have met Lu Yuanshan.
On that day, the wedding day of Lu Yuanshan and Liu Qiumei, Liu Chaotian personally visited the Qingshan Sect and asked for a glass of wedding wine.
Lu Yuanshan is quite familiar with Liu Chaotian.
Liu Chaotian was also a monk in the late stage of crystallization. He had good combat prowess and was the leader of a sect. This status was something that Lu Yuanshan could not despise.
It is worth mentioning that although there are currently two golden elixir monks in the Chaotian Sect, the strongest one is only at the sixth level of the golden elixir stage.
The other one is at the fourth level of the Golden Core.
These two Jindan ancestors are obviously no match for Lu Ping.
On this day, forces from all directions gathered at the Chaotian Sect to participate in the Chaotian Ceremony.
Chaotian Sect became extremely lively, with powerful people gathering.
With the help of this gathering, many monks began to get to know each other and start chatting.
More people are surrounding Lu Yuanshan. They know that Lu Yuanshan's status is not simple, and they want to take this opportunity to get to know each other and make friends with the Qingshan Sect.
I won’t talk about Lu Yuanshan’s status as the leader of this sect.
Just the sight of Lu Ping behind the opponent is enough to make people fawn over and awe them.
What's more, during this trip, Lu Yuanshan did not hide his strength at all, he directly released his cultivation aura and displayed it in front of everyone.
The strength of the ninth level of the crystallization stage has the ability to condense the golden elixir!
This is very likely to be a golden elixir ancestor in the future!
If you don’t fawn over now, when Lu Yuanshan becomes the Patriarch of the Golden Pill, he will only be able to look back.
Lu Yuanshan smiled and responded politely to the warm greetings from fellow Taoists around him.
The leaders who can come to attend the Chaotian Ceremony are all well-known people present, so there is no harm in getting acquainted with them.
In the next hour or two, when all the participating forces arrived, Lu Ping realized how lively the Chaotian Ceremony was this time, how many forces had gathered, and who they were.
The other three major sects, except Shenxiao Palace, which belongs to Jindan Sect, the remaining two, Huanyin Sect and Yunshui Sect, are both crystal sects.
Secondly, there are five other immortal cultivating families participating in this ceremony, namely the He family, the Su family, the Yang family, the Chen family and the Sun family.
Among them, the Su family of Lingjian Lake is the strongest among the five crystallization families. There are three crystallization monks in charge. They are rich in swordsmanship and are the number one family of immortal cultivators in Yunbei County of Chu State.
Four clans and five clans.
These are the sect forces that came to attend the Chaotian Ceremony this time. They are all located in the Chu Kingdom, and they are also the nine major forces invited by the Chaotian Sect.
As for those Qi-training and foundation-building family-level forces, they were not invited. It was obviously a gathering of powerful people.
Regarding the gathering of the nine major forces this time, this was completely beyond Lu Yuanshan's expectations.
He originally thought that the families and sect forces invited by Chaotian Sect would only be four or five at most.
Unexpectedly, this invitation is still from nine companies.
What's even more strange is that the Cultivation Sect has always paid little attention to forces such as the Cultivation Clan, and rarely cooperates with them. At most, they only regard them as subordinate forces.
This is not just within the Chu country. Looking at the world of immortal cultivation in Lingxi Prefecture, many immortal cultivation families depend on one large sect to survive.
For example, the Zhang family relies on the Qingshan Sect.
But what Chaotian Sect did this time was very strange.
Not only were the cultivating families invited to participate, but five families were also invited at once.
Lu Yuanshan was not sure what the Chaotian Sect had planned this time, and he was very confused. For this reason, he informed Lu Ping of his doubts to see what Lu Ping thought.
"When things go awry, there must be a monster, so let's just wait and see what happens. My father is also curious about what kind of medicine is sold in the Chaotian Sect's gourd. I'm afraid it won't be as simple as holding a Chaotian Ceremony this time."
Lu Ping gave a simple answer, but his expression was thoughtful.
He was paying attention to the actions of Liu Chaotian and other Chaotian Sect disciples and elders around him.
He is not worried that Chaotian Sect will hold a Hongmen Banquet.
With Shenxiao Palace and other forces gathered here, once Chaotian Sect wants to die, it will push itself into a pit of fire.
Chaotian Sect is not so stupid.
As everyone exchanged greetings, talked, and had a sumptuous lunch, the ceremony of paying homage to the sky began.
Chaotian Sect, east of the sect main hall.
In a huge square, people from nine directions gathered here, each divided into a camp and seated according to areas.
In the sky above this huge square, two huge circular objects can be seen suspended and standing, intersecting and rotating around each other, exuding a majestic momentum, with bursts of Taoist patterns flowing, as eye-catching as the bright sun.
.
This object is officially the central hub of Chaotian Sect's sect-protecting formation, named Chaotian Star Ring. It is a powerful existence that can rival fifth-level magic weapons.
The Chaotian Star Ring is connected to the spiritual veins of the Chaotian Sect's mountain gate. It runs day and night to protect the Chaotian Sect. It has been running for more than a thousand years and is older than any Chaotian Sect monk.
The laws of the Tao contained in the Chaotian Star Ring make it one of the most famous scenic spots in the Chaotian Sect. Disciples often look up and practice here, hoping to understand the laws of the Tao within.
A golden elixir ancestor of the Chaotian Sect had an epiphany while visualizing the Chaotian Star Ring, broke through the bottleneck of cultivation, and advanced to the golden elixir stage.
The appearance of the star ring facing the sky caused everyone to look at it from time to time and be attracted by this behemoth.
Soon, as an elder of the Chaotian Sect ascended the high platform and announced the opening remarks, the competition in the Chaotian Ceremony began.
This first competition is a screening competition.
The participants are all Qi training monks, and it is called the Qi training competition.
This is the most basic competition, but it has the largest number of participants.
Elite qi training disciples from all forces will represent the sects and compete for the top ten.
As for Qingshan Sect, those disciples who have not yet established the Foundation, such as Lu Xuelian, She Qingqing and others, came here for the Foundation Establishment Pill that the top ten can obtain this time.
The Qi Refining Stage monks from other forces naturally have the same purpose.
The competition is conducted by drawing lots.
The Qingshan Sect appeared in the first competition.
The person participating in the battle was She Qingqing.
