Mi Yun Mountain.
After Qing Guanzi led nurous True People back to the sect, life in the mountains beca lively once again.
Debates on the Dharma, accompanied by singing and dancing, with immortal music ringing in the ears and the sound of Dao resonating endlessly.
This ti, returning with a great victory, and with Earth Flower True Man delivering a lecture, there was one more distinguished person than previously. And this addition was none other than the future School Leader of the Qing Immortal Sect. The spirits of all the True People were lifted countless tis more than before.
Thus, the atmosphere for debating the Dao began with unparalleled intensity.
However, while the many True People were engaged in passionate discussions, outside Mi Yun Mountain, a majestic and brilliant celestial light arrived, catching the attention of many.
"Who is the visitor?"
Song Xiren, who was seated at the highest place among the crowd, turned to look at Qing Guanzi upon witnessing this scene.
As the host of this place, he naturally turned to him to inquire about the newcor’s identity.
"I do not know either."
Qing Guanzi shook his head helplessly and said, "I have never seen this celestial light before, and truly do not know who it could be. However, judging by its aura, it is absolutely one of our peers, and of no ordinary origin."
Although the identity of the visitor was unclear, the commotion they caused and the extraordinary phenona surrounding them revealed that they too were an Earth Immortal True Person.
And among Earth Immortals, they were of the kind with profound cultivation.
Even Qing Guanzi had a faint feeling that the visitor’s foundation might be even more profound than that of the future School Leader of the Qing Immortal Sect sitting beside him.
For the sense of pressure he felt from the visitor was greater than from Song Xiren.
With such a foundation, it was impossible for the visitor to be an Earth Immortal from any minor sect or school; they definitely originated from a major Heavenly Immortal sect without a doubt.
"Do you also not know the identity of the visitor, Dao friend?"
When Song Xiren heard Qing Guanzi’s words, he couldn’t help feeling slightly disappointed.
In fact, Qing Guanzi was not wrong in his sensation—the foundation of the Earth Immortal flying towards them was indeed more profound than his own.
As the party concerned, Song Xiren could clearly feel a significant gap between himself and the newcor.
The only slight advantage he had was probably that he was at the mid-stage of being an Earth Immortal, while the visitor was only at the early stage, making his cultivation a notch higher.
But this minor advantage was hardly sothing to be proud of.
For it only ant that he had lived a bit longer and had more ti for cultivation, which was why his cultivation was higher.
Given the visitor’s equal foundation, as long as they had enough ti, they would gradually catch up with this small gap.
As the future School Leader of the Qing Immortal Sect, Song Xiren was always reputed in the Changqing Domain as a seed of a Heavenly Immortal, the most likely to achieve the status of a Great True Person in the next five thousand years.
With his disposition, he was not complacent about this status, but so degree of pride was inevitably present in his heart.
However, at this mont, the one aspect he valued most—his foundation—was being surpassed by another.
To claim he did not feel a sense of loss would be impossible.
Fortunately, his Dao heart was firm, and he did not feel demoralized. After briefly adjusting his attitude, he stabilized his emotions.
While the two were conversing, the visiting Earth Immortal had already arrived at the gates of Mi Yun Mountain.
"May I inquire if the friends from Taiping Dao are here? I am Wang ShiZhou from Dongyang Mountain, specifically coming to visit."
In front of the Mountain Gate, amidst the celestial light, stood an imposing figure in golden robes, saluting Mi Yun Mountain from mid-air.
"A True Person from Dongyang Mountain?"
"So it’s Dongyang Mountain."
The many True People in the mountains, hearing the visitor reveal their sect, couldn’t help but engage in widespread discussion.
Song Xiren looked at Qing Guanzi with a gaze filled with confusion and inquiry, whereas the latter’s eyes flickered with a hint of relief.
Seeing Song Xiren’s confusion, Qing Guanzi explained, "I must tell Dao friend that when I first heard about the affairs of Huangquan, the Ghost Emperor of Xiaye Country, I lost my composure for a mont, thinking that there might be Earth Immortal Yamas in the Yin World, feeling unable to cope.
So, in addition to asking for assistance from your esteed sect, I also passed the ssage on to Dongyang Mountain to the south.
After all, Brother Li is a direct disciple of Dongyang Mountain, and I thought that if he encountered danger, I should also inform them, to see if they could send assistance.
Now counting the ti, it has been almost half a day since I dispatched the ssage.
Even though Dongyang Mountain is in another domain and tens of thousands of miles away from here, this much ti is about right for the ssage to have been delivered, and for their people to have arrived."
Upon hearing this, Song Xiren chided, "If Dao friend had already requested aid from Dongyang Mountain, why did you not ntion it earlier? We could have prepared to welco them accordingly, instead of being caught off guard like this."
Although the Qing Immortal Sect and Dongyang Mountain, both sects, were seen by outsiders as dominant powers of a single region.
That was only the surface.
The Qing Immortal Sect belonged to a declining trend with no Great True Person, whereas Dongyang Mountain was on the rise, with a Heavenly Immortal at the helm, making them incomparable.
If one were to draw an analogy, the Qing Immortal Sect’s relationship with Dongyang Mountain was akin to Taiping Dao’s status compared to their own.
Although it appeared as though both sects were on the sa level, the actual disparity between them was as vast as differences between two levels of hierarchy.
Given the enormous gap in standing, Song Xiren had to be cautious and maintain a certain level of humility when dealing with Dongyang Mountain.
Qing Guanzi responded, "I was not sure if Dongyang Mountain would co, and I did not expect them to arrive so early, hence my oversight. Now is not the ti to discuss this. Brother Wang is waiting outside; we should promptly go to greet him, so as not to seem negligent."
"We should indeed go to receive him."
Song Xiren stood up and then addressed the present True People, "Fellow Dao friends, with a True Person from Dongyang Mountain visiting, as the host, let us all go to greet him together."
