"Ancestor, with the lords of the eight hundred heavens gathered, you cannot leave. Why not temporarily preside over the Grand Dao Unification Ceremony? After it concludes, you can attend to this matter. Although Qian Luo's mission failed, his life tablet hasn't shattered, suggesting the situation isn't at its most dangerous. I will investigate, reporting any developments to you," Jade Luo True Immortal said respectfully, after a moment of consideration.
If there were no important matters at hand, he naturally wouldn't say such a thing. But the Grand Dao Unification Ceremony had already begun, and the lords of the eight hundred heavens had descended. Moreover, countless beings were pouring into the Holy Origin Heavens, eager to see their ancestor's face.
Under these circumstances, if their ancestor were to leave...
To not appear at the ceremony he was hosting...
Without a doubt, the so-called Grand Dao Unification Ceremony would become a joke.
It would tarnish the ancestor's prestige...
Furthermore, if Qian Luo True Immortal's life tablet shattered, they would sense it. Since it hadn't, he was likely not in mortal danger. Therefore, he volunteered to investigate.
"Hmm..."
"Very well, I will entrust this matter to you."
Holy Monarch Gu Xu's eyes narrowed, and after careful consideration, he nodded. Jade Luo True Immortal was right; he truly couldn't leave.
"Yes," Jade Luo True Immortal said, cupping his fist.
He was just about to take his leave.
But at that moment.
A grand and vast aura, as if the ancient heavens had descended, suddenly appeared above the entire Holy Origin Heavens.
"This is!!"
Holy Monarch Gu Xu's pupils shrank.
......
"Holy Monarch of Dao Unification, supreme in the Chaos. With Holy Monarch Gu Xu's power, subduing the remaining two hundred heavens is only a matter of time. When the Thousand Domains Heavens are unified, Holy Monarch Gu Xu's position at the Myriad Immortals Assembly will be even higher. Following in his footsteps is also an opportunity for us."
"Indeed..."
At the center of the ceremony, the lords of the eight hundred heavens were already seated, discussing amongst themselves. The topic was all about Holy Monarch Gu Xu, and their expressions were relieved.
Now that Holy Monarch Gu Xu had advanced to Dao Unification, they would only rely on him even more.
Naturally, they wouldn't oppose him; on the contrary, they would try to curry favor with him.
The Lord of Light Feather Heavens nodded slightly, just as he was about to say something.
Suddenly, his gaze froze on the firmament of the Holy Origin Heavens.
At the same time.
The lords of the surrounding eight hundred heavens all stared at the firmament, as if some incredible thing was descending. Their expressions shifted, and some of them instinctively stood up.
"What a terrifying aura! It feels like it surpasses those Chaos Grand Luo True Immortals!"
"How is that possible! Could these five great beings all be existences who have unified with the Dao?"
"Indeed, look at the reactions of those heaven lords. Clearly, these five who have descended are all Dao Unification True Immortals. Truly astonishing! In the past, it was fortunate to even see one Dao Unification True Immortal. Today, we're seeing five in a row."
"But why would these Dao Unification True Immortals come here? Could they be Holy Monarch Gu Xu's friends, here to attend his ceremony?"
The descent of the five Dao Unification True Immortals from the Immortal Court greatly shook the beings here. One by one, they stood up and looked up, incomparably awed.
And even more were puzzled. One should know that Dao Unification existences were rarely seen, extremely mysterious. In normal times, the appearance of even one could stir up a great storm. Now, with five appearing in a row, they couldn't help but speculate in their hearts.
However, it was very clear.
The appearance of these five Dao Unification experts must be related to Holy Monarch Gu Xu.
After all, they were currently at Holy Monarch Gu Xu's Dao Unification Ceremony, and Holy Monarch Gu Xu was also at the Dao Unification realm.
Therefore, some people guessed that Holy Monarch Azure Sky and the others who had suddenly appeared above the ceremony were Holy Monarch Gu Xu's friends.
However, among the people present, there were also some who showed uneasy expressions.
............
Chapter 576: Sending People to Intimidate the Immortal Court, Have You Forgotten About This? Arrest Holy Monarch Gu Xu
............
One should know what status a Dao Unification True Immortal held.
In any region of the Chaos, they were existences to whom ten thousand immortals paid homage, worthy of being called the ancestor of a Dao.
Even if it was just one descending upon the Holy Origin Heavens.
The entire Holy Origin Heavens would be honored because of it.
Even if its master, Holy Monarch Gu Xu, was also at the Dao Unification realm.
Not to mention five descending at the same time.
If these five Dao Unification True Immortals who had suddenly appeared were truly Holy Monarch Gu Xu's friends, Holy Monarch Gu Xu, as the host, would definitely have appeared in advance, waiting to welcome them.
But at this moment, not only had Holy Monarch Gu Xu not appeared, but just looking at the bewildered reaction of the immortals of the Holy Origin Heavens, one could know that Holy Monarch Gu Xu had not notified the five Dao Unification True Immortals of their arrival at all. This was very abnormal.
Moreover, the most important point.
To release one's aura and pressure on the beings at a banquet in someone else's Dao Unification Ceremony, disturbing all spirits, was equivalent to provocation.
The descent of the five Dao Unification True Immortals in this way.
Did not seem like Holy Monarch Gu Xu's friends at all.
On the contrary, it seemed like... enemies!
Realizing this, some people's faces began to turn pale, and their hearts were filled with fear. If they were truly enemies, the outbreak of battle between Dao Unification True Immortals could cause them to fall with just a slight ripple.
......
"How could this be!?"
In the Purple Glow Palace, a deep sense of dread appeared on Holy Monarch Gu Xu's face.
No matter how the beings attending the banquet speculated.
Only he knew best that the five Dao Unification True Immortals who had descended upon the banquet had nothing to do with him.
He simply didn't know the purpose of these Dao Unification experts' descent here.
"Ancestor, this..." Jade Luo True Immortal behind him had long since fallen into a daze.
Holy Monarch Gu Xu ignored Jade Luo True Immortal, but directly took a step forward, came to the firmament, faced Holy Monarch Hong Tian, Holy Monarch Azure Sky, the Three Emperors, and bowed in turn, finally fixing his gaze on Holy Monarch Hong Tian.
Among the five Dao Unification True Immortals, Holy Monarch Hong Tian gave him the greatest pressure, even faintly causing the principles of the Great Dao he cultivated to collapse. He was definitely a supreme expert in the Dao Unification realm, and therefore, Holy Monarch Gu Xu recognized him as the leader of the five immortals.
"The descent of the five seniors upon the Holy Origin Heavens is truly an honor to the Holy Origin Heavens. However, I don't know what the purpose of the five seniors' visit is?" Holy Monarch Gu Xu took a slight breath and asked with a respectful expression.
Not to mention Holy Monarch Hong Tian, the other Dao Unification True Immortals also gave him a sense of pressure, clearly none of them were weak, making him dare not neglect them.
"What? Have you forgotten about sending people to intimidate the Immortal Court?"
Holy Monarch Hong Tian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice.
"Intimidate the Immortal Court?"
Feeling the oppressive tone, Holy Monarch Gu Xu swallowed his saliva, his face blank.
What intimidate the Immortal Court?
He didn't even know what the Immortal Court was.
How could he send someone to intimidate them?
Moreover, he wasn't some fool.
If he knew that the Immortal Court had so many Dao Unification True Immortals, he would avoid them, let alone go up to them.
"Senior, is there some misunderstanding in this?" Holy Monarch Gu Xu's forehead broke out in a cold sweat.
"Misunderstanding? Take a closer look, is he your man?"
Holy Monarch Azure Sky took out a jade talisman and held it up in front of Holy Monarch Gu Xu.
The jade talisman was playing a video with immortal power.
The content of the video was a True Immortal being punched and kicked by other True Immortals, constantly beaten, and screams were endless.
At the end of the video, the beaten True Immortal lay motionless on the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
"This is... Qian Luo?" Holy Monarch Gu Xu's pupils shrank slightly.
Although the video was very chaotic, as if the photographer was also participating in the beating, shaking violently, but what kind of eyesight did a Dao Unification True Immortal have? At a glance, he recognized the protagonist of the beaten image as Qian Luo True Immortal under his command.
"You are people from those two hundred heavens!"
At the moment when Holy Monarch Gu Xu saw Qian Luo, he understood everything.
One should know that Jade Luo True Immortal had just reported to him that Qian Luo True Immortal, who had gone to persuade the remaining two hundred heavens to surrender, was suspected of having an accident. This kind of image undoubtedly showed the treatment Qian Luo True Immortal had suffered in those two hundred heavens.
How could he forget in such a short period of time.
"That's right."
"Holy Monarch Gu Xu drove his True Immortal to intimidate the Immortal Court, violating the Immortal Court's Violent Law. Today, we will arrest him and take over everything Holy Monarch Gu Xu has obtained. From now on, the Holy Origin Heavens and the eight hundred heavens will all belong to the Immortal Court. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"
Holy Monarch Azure Sky nodded slightly, and at the same time, stood in the firmament and announced to the heavens.
"Seniors, Qian Luo True Immortal stepped into the Immortal Court's territory, it is indeed my poor discipline, but now, it is not to the extent of robbing my Holy Origin Heavens' trillions of years of accumulation because of this, right?" Holy Monarch Gu Xu was a little anxious.
How long had he prepared for the Myriad Immortals Assembly? Now that he had finally broken through to Dao Unification and had the qualifications to have a seat at the Myriad Immortals Assembly, but now, this so-called Immortal Court not only wanted to arrest him, but also wanted to confiscate everything under his command, how could he be willing?
In addition, it was only his True Immortal who had rashly entered the other party's territory. An apology and compensation would be enough, it was not a crime to this extent at all.
These Dao Unification experts of the Immortal Court were obviously using the pretext of intimidating the Immortal Court to seize the Holy Origin Heavens.
"You want to resist, have you thought it through? With the strength of our five, who can you beat? As for running? Unless you merge with the Chaos Great Dao, your foundation is in the Holy Origin Heavens. Whether you fight or run, it is a dead end for you."
"Honestly follow us and leave, and you can still leave a life. If you are stubborn, don't blame this seat for being ruthless," Holy Monarch Hong Tian said calmly, his voice cold.
Ordinary Dao Unification True Immortals might still be afraid of the resistance of beings in the same realm, but he, a half-step Eternal, almost touched the existence of creating the Chaos Great Dao. The mere Holy Monarch Gu Xu had no threat at all.
"This..." This intimidation, although the tone was very bad, made Holy Monarch Gu Xu, who was preparing to fight, suddenly calm down, and the expression on his face was uncertain.
Indeed, he was not the kind of Dao Unification True Immortal who merged with the Great Dao.
There were too many restrictions.
