Spiritual Resonance Cave Mansion, banquet hall inside, because of those two shattered dragon pendants, as well as the sudden cries of alarm.
Not only Tao Qian, the other True Disciples and nearby Spirit Treasure Disciples also showed surprise on their faces, even the usually indifferent Master Taixuan, Xuu Xun, was the sa.
Although most people didn't care much for the so-called power of the Mortal World, the contemporary Imperial Family of the Longevity Heavenly Dynasty was no big deal to them either.
Yet, hearing suddenly about the "Emperor's demise" was naturally surprising.
After all, everyone knew what it ant when the emperor suddenly died amidst such a great change that had not occurred in a thousand years?
Another disciple at the banquet, also from a thousand-year-old noble family, looking at the shocked and saddened Thirteenth Prince and Princess Bao Shou, couldn't help but sigh:
"The Ancestor God Forbidden Technique is broken, the Longevity Barrier has dispersed."
"This is to be expected."
"But the Mortal World is probably going to see even more wars erupt, especially now with the situation...great calamities, great calamities indeed."
As he sighed, the Thirteenth Prince and Princess Bao Shou had already cald down.
Initially, the forr had intended to have a good conversation with Tao Qian and hopefully beco friends.
Now, there was no ti for that, so he quickly took his royal sister, paid their respects, and then had to leave in a hurry, without even ti for the feast.
However, before leaving, the prince seed to rember sothing and still turned back to say:
"Fellow Senior Brothers, including Senior Brother Tao, if you ever find leisure to visit the Mortal World, do rember to stay at my Prince Ning Mansion, and let your junior host you to the best of my ability."
Everyone actually saw through his intentions and purpose, but since his father, the Emperor, had just passed away, no one said anything.
They all simply bowed their hands and watched him leave.
Tao Qian also watched the two's back, feeling the surge of Human Dao Fortune within him, with obscure ssages following.
Vague, unordered.
But the aning expressed was consistent with that of the True Disciple senior brother's sigh, only the focus was different.
The Mortal World will be in great chaos!
The Mortal Human Race will be caught in dire straits!
What Tao Qian felt was, to a certain extent, a silent urging.
...
The Immortal Peach Banquet was extraordinarily lively, but eventually, there ca a ti to end and disperse.
Unbeknownst to them, it was already the next day from 5 am to 7 am, the sky was about to brighten but was still at its darkest.
Ascending Immortal Island, however, was still bright as day, everywhere hung with Glazed Palace Lamps, illuminating the lingering Fragrant Clouds, presenting a scene of the Immortal that the Mortal World could never behold.
As the host, Tao Qian bid farewell to each uniquely elegant fellow Spirit Treasure Sect mber on Yunhua Immortal Mountain.
The seventeen True Disciples stayed till the last, planning to leave together.
And upon leaving, Master Xuu Xun especially left a token as a keepsake, hoping that when Tao Qian later encountered situations where he needed help in the Mortal World, he would not hesitate to contact him.
Unable to refuse such kindness, Tao Qian accepted it.
The cleanup was left to Sha Nu'er, Zhong Doudou, and others.
Tao Qian returned to the quiet room, sat down, and went directly into ditation.
The first priority was to digest all that had been gained from the banquet; naturally, a gathering of eighteen True Disciples would not just be for enjoynt, not just drinking a few sips of Immortal Wine or eating a few Immortal Peaches.
With eighteen people gathered, it was inevitable to share so experiences about cultivation.
In this way, Tao Qian gained a great advantage.
He must be the one with the least ti in cultivation among them, even if newcors like the Thirteenth Prince and Princess Bao Shou were included, regarding the shortest cultivation ti, the first place still belonged to Tao Qian.
He listened satisfactorily to the cultivation experiences of these talents.
Even though not all could be emulated, he felt he had gained significantly.
Nevertheless, he felt sowhat ashad, the reasons for which were also understandable.
Others, including Xuu Xun and Yang Jie, thought that he, Tao Da, being able to Survive Three Calamities and enter Foundation Establishnt in such a short ti, must have so precious experience or exceptional techniques.
These, Tao Qian, of course, had none.
It wasn't good to tell his fellow disciples that I, Tao Da, relied on an Abnormal Soul, and ca through with an Exemption Cost, right?
After so thought, he just thickened his skin.
Pretending to be profound, he took a sip of Immortal Wine, and then embarrassingly smiled:
"My Talent is passable, relying solely on diligent practice, and also encountering many nobles, I was fortunate enough to join Spirit Treasure and establish my Dao Foundation."
"Speaking of which, it mostly depended on luck, which is quite embarrassing."
The True Disciples, along with other disciples listening, seeing him say this, couldn't say much more.
Fortunately, at a critical mont, Brother Yang Jie stood up to salvage his dignity a bit.
"Junior Brother Tao is too modest!"
"Others may not know, but I happen to be aware of Junior Brother's experiences in Southern Yue."
"In my view, Yang Jie, what's most praiseworthy and should indeed be shared about Junior Brother Tao is your resolute and indomitable Dao Heart."
"At that ti, newly having received the Spirit Treasure thod and needing to Survive Three Calamities, the first calamity tested his Dao Heart."
"That territory is called 'Fragrant at Collection', led by a Pig Demon who cultivated the Cannibal Scripture with a group of Demons, holding a market where humans were food and playthings. Not only was that Pig Demon in Foundation Establishnt Realm, but it also had Iron Buddha Temple as its backing. Most of the hundreds of Demons in the market had their own backers too."
"Yet Junior Brother was just a Qi Refining Realm cultivator."
"If it were any of you here, you would have likely not dared to confront it head-on but would think of ways to avoid the calamity."
"Junior Brother was different; with just a sword, he fought till the sky grew dark and the Fragrant at Collection turned into a pyramid of demon flesh... Such valor fits a disciple of our Spirit Treasure Sect."
"The following two calamities, especially the third calamity closely related to the Great Calamity of Human Dao in Southern Yue, I suppose Junior Brother also survived relying on that Dao Heart."
