Chapter 665: Chapter 549: Coming_2
The white-robed cultivator’s face was as still as water before he gave the command:
"Send the orders down: within the time it takes an incense stick to burn, all Deputy Court Leaders and Enforcement Leaders within Liyuan City at the Golden Core Stage must come to see me!”
"Everyone! No one is to have any excuses!”
"One incense stick’s time, whoever dares not come, get the hell out of the Taoist Court immediately!”
Upon hearing this, the Enforcement Leader was greatly shocked and knew that this matter must be of great importance.
This was the first time he had seen the normally unflappable Court Leader show such a stern expression.
The Enforcement Leader immediately passed on the orders.
By the time the incense had burned down, all the Golden Core Cultivators from the entire Liyuan City Taoist Court had gathered in front of the white-robed cultivator.
Their expressions were grave, with a mix of confusion."Court Leader, what exactly has happened?”
The white-robed cultivator waved his hand, “Immediately set out with me, to Li Mountain City!”
"All of us?” A Deputy Court Leader was taken aback.
After thinking for a moment, the white-robed cultivator casually pointed to one of the Golden Core Cultivators, “You stay behind to hold the fort; the rest will all go.”
The crowd looked at each other in bewilderment.
Still, the Deputy Court Leader couldn’t help but ask, “Court Leader, what exactly happened?”
The white-robed cultivator was annoyed, yet seeing everyone’s puzzled faces, he still put it succinctly:
"A special Eternal Life Rune has broken; we’re going to take a look.”
"A special Eternal Life Rune?!”
The crowd was shocked, murmuring amongst themselves:
"What is that?”
"Runes?”
"Is it that important?”
"Worthy of such a grand mobilization?”
…
The white-robed cultivator paused, speechless.
After all, Liyuan City was quite remote, and these Golden Core Cultivators, though of decent births, mostly came from less significant Noble Clans and Sects, knowing little of such grand legacies. ℞ΑNȫ𐌱ЁṢ
"Court Leader, isn’t this… making a big fuss over a small issue?” someone tentatively said.
A single rune, such a big deal it had made, mobilizing all of the top Golden Core Cultivators from the biggest Taoist Court within the Dali Mountain State boundary?
The Deputy Court Leader also voiced his confusion:
"Court Leader, is this Eternal Life Rune really that urgent?”
The white-robed cultivator could hardly suppress his anger and could only grit his teeth and say:
"You all know shit!”
"I can only tell you, one special Eternal Life Rune is worth more than my damn life! Way! More! Precious! Heavy!!”
At these words, everyone’s faces changed.
Only then did they realize that the matter might be far more grave than they had thought.
"Quit the nonsense!” the white-robed cultivator shouted, “Dress in your Taoist Robes, bring your Magical Treasures, prepare your Pills, and set off now!”
"Yes!”
The crowd responded solemnly and with a heavy tone.
The white-robed cultivator nodded, about to say something but suddenly sensed something, his heart skipped a beat, and he looked skywards with eyes wide in alarm.
The Deputy Court Leader was hesitant, pointing to the distance and fumbling, “Court Leader, when the Eternal Life Rune breaks, does it… look like that…?”
The white-robed cultivator whirled around, took one look, and his legs nearly gave out beneath him.
In the distance, the sky was flooded with golden light, and the presence was terrifying.
"Another one… has broken?”
No, not just one…
The white-robed cultivator stared intently.
In the far horizon, a beam of golden light and a beam of red light stood in opposition.
Although far away and not quite clear, the profound aura was unmistakably… two Dharma manifestations?
And among them, that blood shadow… was it from the Demon Path’s Heaven Void?!
From the Demon Path…
An Undying Rune?!
In just a short span of time, two special Eternal Life Runes, and a Demon Path’s Undying Rune had broken?
"What… exactly has happened?”
The white-robed cultivator’s gaze was filled with horror.
…
Meanwhile, far away, in the Taoist State, the Central Tao Court.
The Heaven Shu Pavilion.
A Pavilion Elder was playing chess with a Supervisor.
The Pavilion Elder had completely white hair, an old face, but his eyes were profound; the Supervisor had half-white hair, a face like jade, and a humble look in his eyes.
The two alternated moves in chess.
After a moment, hurried footsteps came from outside the door.
A disciple of the Heaven Shu Pavilion rushed to the door, then stopped abruptly, suppressing the urgency in his heart, and respectfully knocked on the door.
The Pavilion Elder ignored the knocking, continuing the game as if nothing had happened.
The disciple outside was burning with impatience but could only wait respectfully.
Seeing that the Pavilion Elder did not respond, the Supervisor finally whispered, “Pavilion Elder… ”
It was only then that the Pavilion Elder came back to his senses, sighed softly, and shifted his gaze from the chessboard, speaking slowly, “Come in.”
The disciple, as if hearing sacred sounds, although eager, still entered the room with light steps, making no noise at all.
Bent over, he presented a Jade Slip to the Pavilion Elder, saying respectfully:
"Pavilion Elder, the calculation is done. In the Third Grade Dali Mountain State boundary, Li Mountain City… ”
"Hmm.”
The Pavilion Elder nodded slightly but gave no further instruction.
The disciple was at a loss for a moment.
Seeing no alternative, the Supervisor shook his head, took the Jade Slip, and said to the disciple:
"The Pavilion Elder is informed; you relay the message. This matter has been a long time in the making and is well organized. Do what needs to be done as planned… ”
The disciple breathed a sigh of relief and respectfully took his leave.
After hesitating for a moment and looking at the content of the Jade Slip in his hand, the Supervisor was somewhat moved, murmuring, “Nether Heavenly Mechanism Seal… ”
"Blood flags sealing the city, a Demon sword hanging over lives?”
"A special Eternal Life Rune… has shattered… ”
"Undying Rune… Demon path’s Saint Heir?”
…
Muttering to himself, with varying expressions, the Supervisor could not help but call out, “Pavilion Elder… ”
"Hmm.” The Pavilion Elder replied indifferently.
The Supervisor looked at the Pavilion Elder with a look of astonishment, “Did you know all along?”
The Pavilion Elder was fixated on the chessboard, not taking his eyes off it, and did not answer.
With care, the Supervisor said:
"The Shangguan Family, the Yun Family, the Taoist Mysterious Gate… they asked you for calculations a while ago, and you said you couldn’t calculate it, were you putting them off?”
"Did you… already know about what’s happening in Li Mountain City?”
"You
