Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree Chapter 923 336: Lighting the Incense, Establishing the Sect

He felt relieved when he saw no change in the latter's expression.

"Everyone, the ceremony is about to begin, please do not make any noise."

At this mont, the disciple of Heavenly Saint Lake stepped forward to stop their dispute.

The old man from the Four Gods Temples smiled faintly, no longer paying attention to Xuanming, and started climbing the mountain until he arrived outside the Ancestor Master Hall.

Aside from the disciples of Heavenly Saint Lake, others were not qualified to step into the Ancestor Master Hall and could only look in from outside.

At this mont.

A young man dressed in a daoist robe faced away from the crowd, his hands inside his sleeves, standing alone before two portraits.

The two portraits, one slightly taller, the other slightly lower.

The taller portrait depicted a middle-aged man with a gentle expression, his appearance was unremarkable, except for his eyes, which were like the finishing touch in a painting, captivating with a single glance.

The lower portrait showed a cold-faced youth standing with his hands behind his back. It was unclear who portrayed the youth, who slightly sneered at the audience with disdain in his eyes.

Behind these two portraits, more than a dozen portraits were lined up — these were the Heavenly Venerable and Dao Ancestor born from Heavenly Saint Lake to date.

The atmosphere in the venue was solemn; even those outside wore serious expressions, not daring to disrespect the occasion.

The dozen portraits in the Ancestor Master Hall, especially the two in the middle, represented where Heavenly Saint Lake ca from and also its current foundation.

And the young man beneath the portraits of the two True Saints represented the current and future heights of Heavenly Saint Lake in the Great Universe.

At this mont, among the disciples of Heavenly Saint Lake, so Martial Artists who knew so truths from their elders looked at the figure ahead with complex expressions.

Envy, admiration, bitterness… various anings were abundant.

No matter whether this person was truly a disciple of Heavenly Saint Lake or not.

After today.

He would be the first after the two True Saint Ancestors of Heavenly Saint Lake.

The present and future first Sect Leader of Heavenly Saint Lake in the Great Universe.

Ti passed by the second.

As the auspicious ti drew near.

Among the representatives standing behind No Heaven, Tianqingzi took a deep breath and stepped forward.

This single step brought forth many complex looks of envy.

Even Tian Ying, known privately as the head steward, was full of envy.

Tianqingzi couldn't help but feel moved.

Though their lineage was destined to have a position in the Ancestor Master Hall, when they have it, where it is, and who sits there...

It couldn't be decided solely by their lineage.

But now, at least in na, No Heaven Uncle Master hailed from their lineage, naturally elevating their status.

Even his Master had managed to secure a position as Heavenly King through internal ans.

And now, even officiating the "Burning Incense and Lighting Lamps" ceremony had fallen to their lineage.

Tianqingzi closed his eyes, clearing his mind.

Upon reopening them, his expression was solemn as he proclaid, "The Dao of Heaven and Earth, profound and mysterious, sumd up in one statent — the entity is not singular, thus its life is unpredictable, vast, deep, high, illuminated, distant, and enduring."

Everyone lowered their heads slightly, listening to the aphorism from Ancestor Shouzhen.

The words of a True Saint must be humbly heard by all present.

Only No Heaven, raised his head slightly, gazing at the two portraits.

"...The Dao of Heaven and Earth is all contained within."

Tianqingzi paused briefly, then said in a deep voice, "Please, No Heaven Uncle Master, light the lamp!"

Lighting the lamp in the Ancestor Master Hall was lighting a Heart Lamp.

No Heaven raised his eyes, a strand of Heart Lamp lit at the highest wick, the fla bright.

Then.

Lamps were gradually lit, symbolizing the various Dao lineages of Heavenly Saint Lake.

"Please, No Heaven Uncle Master, offer incense!"

Beside him, Tian Ying, who was already prepared, solemnly stepped forward to hand over three sticks of incense.

No Heaven received the three sticks of incense, inserting them into an ash-filled censer before him, smoke billowing like a Heaven-reaching Path.

Everyone stared solemnly at the smoke from the incense.

Gradually.

The smoke did not dissipate but instead outlined two misty figures in the Ancestor Master Hall.

As these two figures beca more solid, not only the disciples of Heavenly Saint Lake, but even the attendees wore cautious expressions.

Because this act determined whether Heavenly Saint Lake could truly establish itself in the Great Universe!

Simultaneously.

Close his eyes slowly, No Heaven raised his spirit infinitely, entering the Dharma Realm, locating the two Illusion Dao imprints, and acted again, making the two illusion imprints slightly more solid.

Suddenly.

On Gusu Star, all hearts resembled birds before a storm, that indescribably heavy feeling arriving, pressing their spirits and thoughts close to freezing...

In the heavens and earth.

Two towering Dharma Forms appeared in succession, standing tall.

The first wore a daoist robe, middle-aged face, surrounded by dense rules intertwining like veins, binding heaven and earth and himself.

He glanced at the disciples below, slightly nodding, instantly, countless disciples of Heavenly Saint Lake showed delight, receiving a certain mysterious gift.

The other was a young face, sleeves billowing, gaze solely on No Heaven, smiling slightly, unreadable emotions.

Yet.

Offering three sticks of incense, guiding the truths of the two Saints to blend into the world, No Heaven was nearly unrestrained, his gaze fell on the two Saints, showing only a slight ritual, for the way of transmission.

Shouzhen.

No Law.

The projections of the two Saints' Dharma Forms reflected in the sky.

All of Gusu Star entirely stalled.

In the ether.

Everyone seed to see two rivers changing course from this planet...

This stagnation did not last long, yet seed to be eternal.

No Heaven frowned slightly, silently saying:

Almost enough.

Using his Dao Foundation to guide their virtual shadows to descend, engraving Heaven Heart, did anyone truly believe it was easy work?

The Dharma Form resembling a youthful appearance was indifferent, withdrawing first.

The middle-aged face Dharma Form glanced at No Heaven, voice low, whispering in his ear:

"You should develop the deanor of a Sect Leader, do not embarrass us."

As the projections of the Dharma Forms dissipated.

The heaviness weighing on everyone gradually eased.

The crowd instinctively sighed in relief.

Recalling the scene that just unfolded, the representatives from Phoenix Blood Palace and Yaochi Fairyland wore serious expressions.

Rumor had it that the Lawless Saint had long been suppressed by Saint Shouzhen beneath Heavenly Saint Lake.

But witnessing today's event, it seed otherwise, Heavenly Saint Lake was still a sect with two True Saints.

Even if Shouzhen hadn't passed the predestined Saint calamity within a century, Heavenly Saint Lake would still stand firm.

After the ceremonial rites ended.

The solemn weight on everyone's face had not yet dissipated, thoughts myriad, when they saw the foremost, clad in qingshan daoist robe, step out of the Ancestor Master Hall.

The disciples stepped aside, creating a Heaven-reaching Path.

Most of the guests were not eting this person for the first ti.

Yet as he approached, a suppressive force still overwheld them, making many break into a sweat.

What was this person going to do?

Could he sweep them all once again?!

No Heaven exited the Ancestor Master Hall, his voice even, yet landing in everyone's mind lake, stirring layers of ripples.

"Three days later, Heavenly Saint Lake will deploy forces to flatten Chaotic Abyss Sea, any house willing to join?"

As this was said.

The crowd's expressions imdiately beca splendid, Xuanming's clone was stunned, showing a peculiar face.

Was he intending to crush Chaotic Abyss Sea, then why invite the Four Gods Temples to the ceremony?

Just to humiliate the latter?

That would be...

Perfectly fitting its appetite!

In the crowd, the old man from the Four Gods Temples furrowed his brows tightly, his expression changed repeatedly, glancing around, seemingly certain No Heaven wouldn't act rashly, he stepped out.

His face was dark, about to speak, but his expression changed drastically when he saw No Heaven casually extend a palm.

This palm appeared slow and composed, yet was like a deity's hand subduing the Heavenly Demon, falling onto his head in an instant.

With a swoosh, from head to toe, the latter instantly beca a mist of blood.

Standing at the entrance to the Ancestor Master Hall, No Heaven said indifferently:

"I did not ask for the opinion of the Four Gods Temples."
