Chapter 1503: The Grand Ceremony Begins_2 Chapter 1503: The Grand Ceremony Begins_2 Editor: Henyee Translations No matter what methods they tried, no one could alter or control the trajectory of the golden snow.
It seemed almost intangible, as if it didn't belong to this world, untouchable until the moment it settled on the ground, where it could then be absorbed by those present.
“The mastery of that one is truly earth-shattering.
Even the blessings he bestows so casually are beyond comprehension!” After countless futile attempts, the cultivators could only marvel in awe, no longer daring to act presumptuously as they quietly absorbed the celestial energy.
A surreal scene unfolded across Central State: On vast plains, in bustling immortal cities, atop grand sect halls, amidst serene rivers and soaring cloudsaEUR”cultivators sat cross-legged, meditating.
Bathed in a faint golden glow, their auras steadily ascended, as if basking in an invisible sunlight.
Central State was transformed into a golden wonderland, resembling a divine kingdom.
This ethereal brilliance combined with the celebratory decorations prepared for the Celestial Immortal Grand CeremonyaEUR”red silks, golden lanterns, intricately carved railings, and exquisite muralsaEUR”creating a dreamlike spectacle.
Meanwhile, the patriarchs of the great immortal sects, standing apart from the masses, watched the golden snow with astonishment and perplexity.
Though the energy was beneficial to them as well, they understood it was not intended for them.
Their status and pride prevented them from partaking in this gift, as doing so would imply a loss of dignityaEUR”even if the giver was a Celestial Immortal.
Days turned to weeks, and weeks to months, yet Central State seemed to enter a strange temporal stillness.
For a hundred days, the land was silent, every living being immersed in cultivation.
Finally, as the golden snow gradually ceased, figures began rising from their meditative states.
First, they looked around in confusion at the towering tree still standing between heaven and earth, then inwardly examined their strengthened cultivation bases, marveling at their newfound power.
In gratitude, they turned and bowed deeply toward the distant source of their fortune.
Throughout Central State, similar scenes unfolded.
Suddenly, a deep and resonant drumbeat echoed across the mountains and rivers, snapping everyone out of their trance.
Accompanying the drumbeats were mysterious hums emanating from the former Minghe Sect, now the Central Division of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance.
Brilliant white light streamed from the celestial tree, forming radiant pathways in the sky.
Upon closer inspection, the cultivators realized these paths were made of the tree's fallen leaves, inviting them to the grand ceremony.
The sheer magnificence of this display left the gathered cultivators breathless.
“This is terrifying!
Such casual gestures reveal the overwhelming power of a Celestial Immortal!” The awe-struck cultivators marveled at the spectacle, their reverence for Jiang Chengxuan growing with each revelation of his power.
A voice, calm yet commanding, resounded through the void: “Friends, the ceremony has begun.
Those who wish to attend, follow the paths.” It was Jiang Chengxuan.
Hearing his words, no one dared hesitate.
They eagerly ascended the celestial paths, fearing they might miss this once-in-lifetime event.
The skies above Central State were soon filled with cultivators, their figures densely packed like droplets in a rainstorm.
In the blink of an eye, they found themselves transported.
They now stood in a vast, resplendent spaceaEUR”a grand hall adorned with carved railings, painted beams, and lofty stone platforms.
This was the former Minghe Sect, now the seat of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance in Central State.
“Unbelievable!
This spatial folding technique must have created a space large enough to accommodate half of Central State!” “So this is the power of a Celestial ImmortalaEUR Truly terrifying!” The crowd was awestruck, marveling at the grandeur around them.
Before them loomed an enormous, multicolored platform forged from celestial stones, majestic and radiant.
Surrounding them were other cultivators, but the crowding seen in the immortal cities was absent, a clear indication of Jiang Chengxuan's mastery over spatial manipulation.
“Now I understandaEUR This is what true celestial power looks like!” “If he willed it, he could destroy all of Central State effortlessly!” Even the patriarchs of ancient sects, accustomed to wielding immense power, murmured in awe, their pride utterly subdued.
Jiang Chengxuan's successive demonstrations of power had left them fully convinced of his supremacy.
The crowd's attention shifted to the central platform, where they awaited Jiang Chengxuan's arrival, eager to witness a true Celestial Immortal.
As anticipation reached its peak, a deep horn sounded, reverberating through the space.
A dazzling spectacle unfolded atop the grand platform.
Streams of nine-colored celestial light surged forth, birthing mythical creaturesaEUR”dragons, phoenixes, and qilinsaEUR”that roared and galloped into existence.
Unlike ordinary phenomena, these creatures seemed alive, brimming with intelligence, their breaths stirring the air, their movements fluid and lifelike.
The crowd gasped in astonishment, overwhelmed by the display.
As the radiance subsided, rows of Rogue Cultivator Alliance disciples, adorned in ceremonial attire with ancient runic markings on their faces, solemnly took their places on the platform.
At the auspicious moment, the disciples and elders began reciting hymns of tribute.
The verses praised the philosophy of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, recounted Jiang Chengxuan's achievements, and expressed gratitude for his ascension to the Celestial Immortal realm.
The hymns resonated with an air of reverence, captivating the audience.
Every detail of Jiang Chengxuan's journey, from his profound insights to his groundbreaking accomplishments, was etched into the minds of the listeners.
Many nodded fervently, their discussions filled with admiration and fervor, as if understanding these hymns might allow them to achieve similar heights.
The ritual continued for half a day, leaving the crowd hungry for more.
Then came a thunderous chant: “Welcome, Celestial Sovereign!
Master of the Dao!” “Welcome, Celestial Sovereign!
Master of the Dao!” “Welcome, Celestial Sovereign!
Master of the Dao!” The deafening cries jolted everyone back to reality, their gazes fixed on the central platform.
From the celestial tree, a starlit cosmos unfolded, a miniature universe swirling with celestial bodies.
From within this cosmic tableau, Jiang Chengxuan emerged, stepping forth as if from the annals of eternity.
Dressed in simple black robes devoid of embellishment, his mere presence outshone all treasures.
Beside him was Shen Ruyan, her ethereal beauty amplified by her celestial demeanor, her eyes locked on Jiang Chengxuan with unwavering admiration.
The pair descended gracefully, eliciting unrestrained awe from the crowd.
Their gazes reflected a blend of reverence and envy.
Jiang Chengxuan's voice carried across the domain, calm yet commanding: “Friends of the Xuanming Immortal Domain, welcome to the Celestial Immortal Grand Ceremony.
“After the great calamity, we now have this rare moment of peace.
“Let this ceremony mark a new beginningaEUR”may we abandon ceaseless conflict, pursue the Dao together, and safeguard peace for generations to come.” His words resonated deeply, leaving everyone stunned.
