Chapter 5 The Delicious Fish Returns
Chapter 5 The Delicious Fish Returns
The crowd erupted in uproar. Wasn't it supposed to be three months later? Why was it suddenly moved up?
However, no one dared to guess what the patriarch was thinking, so they quickly activated their magical artifacts and rushed to the Asking Immortal Platform.
Just then, Tao Tao ran up to the table, eager to eat all the delicious food, but Feng Yue grabbed him by the collar, put a magic weapon on him, and sped away.
The ancestor's personal visit to impart knowledge is not to be missed; some people can even level up several times just by catching a glimpse of him from afar.
"Senior brother, I'm hungry..." Tao Tao struggled incessantly, still thinking about the delicious food on the table. They promised there would be good food as soon as they arrived, but she hadn't been able to eat a single bite yet.
As Feng Yue flew on his magical artifact, he explained, "Junior Sister, don't be in a hurry. When you arrive at the Asking Immortal Platform, you should have a good meal. The spiritual energy there is the most concentrated in the entire Fengyuan Continent. You must not miss such an opportunity."
"Is there food?" A glint of light flashed in Tao Tao's eyes. She looked incredibly cute. Feng Yue couldn't bear to lie to her, but she was also afraid that she would disobey and run back to find that table full of food.
……
At the Asking Platform, the seven elders stood there anxiously, waiting for the arrival of the new disciples, while also having their own doubts.
Why did the Ancestor suddenly arrive ahead of schedule? Could it be because of that ferocious beast?
If that's the case, how will they explain themselves then?
A mountain of problems lay before them, and the group's faces turned ashen. Yet, they eagerly awaited the arrival of their ancestor, the Primordial True Dragon Ancestor. The sheer amount of True Ancestor Primordial Qi he exuded upon his descent would be enough for them to refine and break through their bottlenecks.
It can be described as a bittersweet experience.
A few moments later, several streaks of light flashed across the sky. The newly recruited disciples had arrived one after another upon hearing the order. Elder Liao Heng stroked his snow-white beard, sighed meaningfully, and waved his hand, opening the restrictions around the Asking Immortal Platform.
In the blink of an eye, the newly recruited disciples landed around the Asking Immortal Platform, gazing devoutly at the jade platform surrounded by giant silver lotuses, feeling a sense of ethereal beauty that captivated them.
The thought of the ancestor personally visiting the Jade Platform filled everyone with anticipation, and some were even secretly nervous. That was the Primordial True Dragon Ancestor; even just catching a glimpse of him would bring immense fortune.
"Junior Sister, this is the only way I can take you. I can't get past the restrictions over there. You have to go by yourself. You must seize this great opportunity."
Feng Yue stopped her weapon not far from the Asking Immortal Platform. Gazing at the swirling immortal mist, her heart was filled with anticipation and piety. She gently nudged Tao Tao, preparing to give her a Wind Control Talisman. Tao Tao nodded blankly, then kicked off with both legs and transformed into a white shadow, shooting towards the Asking Immortal Platform.
She could fly without using any magical artifacts; her junior sister was indeed exceptionally talented. Feng Yue smiled knowingly and flew away on her magical artifact.
"Tao Tao!" Upon seeing the familiar figure appear, Song Chaofeng squeezed through the crowd to Tao Tao's side, looking at her with surprise and delight. Song Chaofeng had changed into the attire of a disciple of Cuizhu Peak, and looked much more handsome than before.
"Huh? Master brother!" Tao Tao was overjoyed to see a familiar face and grabbed Song Chaofeng's hand with a grin. Immediately, the people around looked over with ill intent, and most of them showed some fear towards Song Chaofeng.
The little guy's cry of "Master Brother" really startled Song Chaofeng. What right did he have to dare to control a level four transformed demon beast? He then gave everyone an awkward smile in return.
"quiet!"
Just then, Elder Liao Heng's deafening voice transmission came straight down, and the Asking Immortal Platform fell silent instantly. All the disciples bowed and dared not be disrespectful.
"Set up the array and begin the ritual, respectfully inviting the Ancestor to grace us with his presence!"
"when--"
As a deep bell rang, the seven elders soared into the sky, transforming into seven dazzling rays of light and standing at the seven positions on the jade platform. At the same time, they opened their palms, and golden lotus buds, ready to bloom, swirled in the air, radiating rich spiritual energy.
After the golden lotuses had fully bloomed, they raised their hands and pointed, and seven golden lotuses flew to the top of the jade platform. At the same time, several elders chanted incantations, and a clear sound broke through the air. The seven golden lotuses transformed into golden threads that intertwined and formed a giant array in the center, which then pressed down with a "boom".
The seven elders also landed at the seven positions of the formation, quickly changed their hand seals, and spat out a mouthful of blood essence. The powerful spiritual energy around them was released, so terrifying that it made people feel ashamed. The new disciples all pursed their lips and dared not even breathe.
Clouds drifted and dispersed in the sky, ethereal and formless, then suddenly coalesced into a thick, dark cloud layer that enveloped the entire mountain range. Heaven and earth instantly merged into one, inseparable, and a terrifying pressure permeated the air, making it hard to breathe.
The next moment, a golden light shot down from the thick clouds, as if it had transformed into a giant sword that cleaved the clouds in two. The golden light continued to spread, and the space rippled and distorted as if the gates of heaven were being slowly opened.
Then, a dragon's roar came from the heavens, its clear and melodious sound soaring down.
Under the terrifying pressure, everyone knelt down, not daring to look up. Some with shallow cultivation even coughed up blood, their blood and essence boiling, unable to calm down for a long time.
Only Tao Tao stood there motionless, staring blankly at the strange sight in the sky, looking thoughtful. This frightened Song Chaofeng, who quickly pulled her down to her knees, but dared not utter a word to warn her.
"boom--"
A giant beam of light shone down, covering the jade platform. The giant silver lotuses around it seemed to be drawn by some force, suddenly swelling up and swaying gracefully in the air, emitting a strange fragrance.
Liao Heng was overjoyed at this sight. He prostrated himself on the ground in reverence and shouted excitedly and eagerly, "Welcome back, Ancestor!"
At the same time, others followed suit, bowing and saying, "Welcome, Ancestor!"
These deafening shouts echoed through the heavens, rising and falling, each more exciting than the last. Amidst the tsunami-like roars, a giant silver dragon emerged from the heavens, instantly transforming into a handsome man in a silver robe standing in the void.
Until this moment, no one dared to look up, for fear of disrespecting this ancestor.
The man in the silver robe stepped barefoot onto the silver lotus and slowly walked to the jade platform. Instantly, a huge lotus flower bloomed on the jade platform, exuding a chilling aura. Overnight, the icy aura spread, and everyone was enveloped by this cold aura, their essence and blood instantly frozen.
Perhaps sensing this, the silver-robed man vanished from his spot without a trace, appearing on the giant silver lotus in the blink of an eye. He sat down cross-legged, then waved his hand, dispelling the chill and transforming it into a pure spiritual energy that flowed into their dantian.
This delighted everyone, and they quickly absorbed the nutrients themselves.
"The fish, it's that fish!"
Tao Tao looked up at the silver-robed man on the jade platform, her mouth watering uncontrollably. The fragrance between his lips and teeth from years ago still lingered in her memory.
"Fish, what fish? Where did this fish come from?" Song Chaofeng was terrified. Just as he was about to stop her, Tao Tao got up, kicked her legs, and transformed into a streak of red light, disappearing into the sky.
Oops!
Song Chaofeng sensed something was wrong. At the same time, he began to ponder Tao Tao's words. Could the fish she mentioned be their true dragon ancestor?
It's all over, everything is over!
