The arrival of the second and third generation disciples of the Jie Sect is definitely a significant event, with so many divines descending, a corresponding number of altars need to be prepared.
Chen Shi alone found it difficult to prepare all these altars within a short period, but fortunately, Golden Turtle Island had no shortage of disciples.
He summoned a force and within half a day, the altars for all the gods were constructed.
The altars were divided based on their corresponding heavenly palaces, consisting of ten celestial palaces: Dou, Lei, Huo, Wen, Yu, An, Cai, Tai Sui, Dou, and Shui, with many divines' positions under each palace, and Dou being the foremost.
Chen Shi, leading many disciples, personally burned incense, with the incense fire qi rising gracefully, reaching outside the Nine Heavens.
He prayed, "In forr days, the Three Pure Ones cut Shang and attacked King Zhou; our sect was defeated, myriad immortals dwindled, only Golden Turtle remains. Now, Jiao Huang governs Golden Turtle Island; though there are many disciples, they lack the superior teachings of ancient sages, struggling to inherit the sacred doctrines. We sincerely invite the sect's predecessors to return to Golden Turtle, to transmit the Dao and educate us, continuing the fla."
Following the prayer, divine rosy clouds suddenly erged in the sky above Golden Turtle Island, eloquently illuminating the Star River, causing even the perilous Penglai West to beco exceptionally splendid, with the mountains clad in rosy clouds, attracting many formidable demons to investigate.
The Emperor of Plague Haotian led eight hundred divines of the Wen Departnt descending along the divine rosiness, the emperor's crown with tassels landing on the Wen Departnt's altar, while the eight hundred divines took their positions around, each looking fierce and malevolent.
These eight hundred divines, during their lifetis, were immortals of the Tongtian Lineage, assisting King Zhou in the war, resulting in their demise; although now divine, traces of their immortal law practices could still be sensed from their presence.
The sky was again filled with rosy clouds, the Divine Fire obscured the heavens, making the skies over Penglai West resemble a sea of fire, casting a red hue on the mountains and the great marsh below.
The Southern Three Qi Fire Virtue Star Lord led eight hundred divines of the Fire Departnt descending onto the Fire Departnt's altar.
Following that, thunder roared in the sky, Heavenly Thunder like calamities pervading the divine firmant, as Jiutian Yingyuan Leisheng Puhua Tianzun of the Thunder Departnt led the nurous gods of the Thunder Departnt descending onto their altar.
Then, True Monarch of the Cai Departnt led the deities of the Finance Departnt to descend upon their altar.
...
Each divine descended from the heavens, enveloping Golden Turtle Island with a dazzling halo and making it resemble a Saint Realm illuminated by golden light.
Finally, Doumu Primordial Monarch led the Circulation Stars divine entities descending upon the Dou Departnt's altar.
This ti only the avatars of the divines of the Jie Sect descended, their powers not particularly formidable, but their numbers were vast. In the war to cut Shang and oppose King Zhou, the perished Tongtian disciples have mostly descended as avatars to Golden Turtle Island, making the montum undeniably grand.
Chen Shi led two hundred thousand immortals of Golden Turtle Island, bowing respectfully to the divines atop the altars.
Jiao Quezi, seeing this scene, shed tears uncontrollably.
Golden Turtle Island had been in his hands for two hundred thousand years, with only a smattering of diocre disciples, never witnessing the presence of sect ancestors descending and manifesting divinity, nor seeing such a flourishing scene of nurous disciples.
These seniors of the sect, constrained by their statuses in the Heavenly Court and wary of the Three Pure Ones, would never heed his call for descent to transmit the teachings.
After all, the Divine Beating Whip of the Investiture of the Gods hung high above, monitoring these divines tightly without room for maneuver, who would dare tread too closely to Golden Turtle Island?
Even if there was nostalgia for the sect, at most, they would secretly send their magical treasures down to the Mortal World, seeking inheritors to sustain the sect's incense.
That was all.
But now, with Chen Shi's grand invitation, the divines of the sect responded one after another, how could Jiao Quezi not be moved?
After all, he was an old hand in the Jianghu, knowing the reason Chen Shi could invite these sect divines was largely due to the ever-intensifying conflict between the Heavenly Court and the immortals, reaching irreconcilable heights. The immortals, led by the Three Pure Ones Lineage, portrayed an increasingly conspicuous adversarial stance between the two.
The Heavenly Court, distrusting the immortals, thus allowed Chen Shi to take away two hundred thousand immortals.
The Heavenly Court, wanting to win over its divines, thus allowed Doumu Primordial Monarch and others to descend in avatar form, to guide the disciples of Golden Turtle Island in cultivation.
This positioning can only be clearly seen by those in high places.
"But speaking of it, I chose Chen Shi, which led him to beco a disciple of Golden Turtle Island. Though I have no ability, my foresight is good, which ans Golden Turtle Island's resurgence and prosperity occur in my hands!"
Jiao Quezi blinked, thinking to himself, "I truly am the master of Golden Turtle Island's resurgence, a child of destiny!"
His mood was buoyant, feeling quite comfortable.
With the descent of Doumu Primordial Monarch and other divines' avatars, they began to assess the immortals' cultivation progress and inheritance of cultivation techniques, seeking successors suitable for their respective lineages. Soon, Golden Turtle Island beca lively with immortal gods everywhere practicing their spells and dueling.
Golden Turtle Island lacked sufficient space, so they went outside the island.
Back in the war against King Zhou, the disciples of the Tongtian Lineage did not have very high cultivation levels, at most reaching the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm, with most being True Immortals or Golden Immortals. Many cultivation techniques now appear sowhat outdated.
However, the intention to continue the fla and revive the superior teachings lies in innovating based on these original teachings.
These immortals were originally ones who ascended from the Mortal World, possessing exceptional aptitude and comprehension, which when nurtured and broadened in their perspective, will undoubtedly achieve remarkable accomplishnts.
Only the periphery of Golden Turtle Island remains quite dangerous, although Chen Shi cleared a large expanse, sweeping away all outer dao influences, the area still contains nurous Cave Heaven and Blessed Lands, Immortal Family grottoes, and ancient relics, where rash incursions can result in peril, threatening lives.
Yet many divines disregard this, leading their newly taken disciples into it under the pretext of training.
