The Ji Family's Pride

Chapter 147 Clouds move in all directions
"Preside over it personally?" Prince Qi was stunned.

Normally, the people who manage the world and the entire Great Xia world are all the Xia Mang clansmen and some ministers. Only when a really big event occurs will Emperor Xia come forward.

He originally thought that Emperor Xia, who had been away for a long time, had suddenly returned and issued those orders regarding the Immortal Fate Conference, which showed that he attached great importance to this Immortal Fate Conference.

Now it seems that he is still a bit conservative.

"Yes! I will personally host it!" Emperor Xia nodded. "Not only will I personally host this Immortal Fate Conference, I will also increase the rewards for this conference tenfold or a hundredfold."

Emperor Xia had heard some rumors, so he naturally had to prepare for the future. No matter what, the catastrophe was about to happen, and it would not be a bad idea to establish some good relationships with these geniuses from his Great Xia world.

The strong all started from humble beginnings. Now the three realms are about to be in turmoil, and with the convergence of good fortune, everything is possible.

In this ever-changing world, no one can predict which genius he once helped will become someone he needs to look up to. No one can be sure that an insignificant little character will suddenly become a dragon and soar into the sky.

The theory of destiny is extremely mysterious. A little good fortune can be gained when one is weak, which is more precious than thousands of treasures offered to one after one becomes strong.

His ancient royal family was the best at this. His Taoist brother, Yinglong Daozu, was a friend of his when they were both in obscurity, and later became brothers in life and death. Now he is also one of his biggest backers.

……

soon.

The news that Emperor Xia personally presided over this Immortal Fate Conference and attached great importance to it spread out immediately. Prince Qi and others had made sufficient preparations before, and now all parties were working together to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

As time passed, more and more geniuses came to the capital of Daxia. Some of them even came purely because they knew that there would be a lot of geniuses in this Immortal Fate Conference, and they were eager to fight with geniuses of the same level. So those who originally didn't want to come were tempted and rushed over.

In the blink of an eye, it is already the 16th day of the first lunar month.

Dawn was breaking, but the sky was still dark.

Throughout the capital of Daxia, dense crowds of immortal cultivators poured out from everywhere. There were the Wanxiang Zhenren who participated in the Immortal Fate Conference, and naturally there were also immortal cultivators like Cangjiang Zhenren who came to watch the battle from the 3,600 counties of the Daxia world.

Ji Xiaoshan and several others were riding on a cloud, and were also following the flow of people towards this side. Although the cloud did not look as good as the puppet chariot, with several fellow disciples from the Black and White Academy standing on it, it did not seem crowded at all.

The sloppy master looked down at the huge crowd below and was immediately surprised. "There are so many immortal cultivators today! Are all of them going to participate in the Immortal Fate Conference?"

"These?" Ji Ning also looked at the crowd below, "These should not be the geniuses participating in the Immortal Fate Conference. There are also Yuanshen Taoists and Earth Immortals among them. They should be teams from major county cities who come to watch this Immortal Fate Conference!"

The Immortal Fate Conference is a major event in the Great Xia world. This time, Emperor Xia attaches great importance to it. With his superiors leading by example, the scale of this Immortal Fate Conference will naturally become more grand.

"Brother Sloppy, if you want to distinguish which one is the immortal cultivator participating in the Immortal Fate Conference, it's very simple!" Ji Xiaoshan said with a smile, and then pointed to the imperial city gate in the distance, which was guarded by four giant gods and demons that were thousands of feet tall.

"Just look outside the Imperial City!" Ji Xiaoshan said, "Those flying outside the Imperial City alone or in groups like us are cultivators who are going to participate in the Immortal Fate Conference. If not, then they are the teams led by various princes who are here to watch the battle."

"Well! Qingping is right. This is very easy to distinguish. Although the Immortal Fate Conference is a grand event, not everyone can watch it. Otherwise, with billions of living beings in the Great Xia world, it would not be a simple matter to maintain order without setting any thresholds." Wan Nianfeng also laughed.

"Hmm." Sloppy Master suddenly realized and immediately looked towards the center of the capital. He saw that in all directions, in the void near the imperial city, all the immortal cultivators were flying towards this place. They were so dense that they blocked out the sky and the sun. "There are so many people...!"

Wow!
Ji Xiaoshan, Ji Ning and the other five people suppressed the clouds and immediately landed outside the imperial city, a place where there were relatively fewer immortal cultivators.

"There must be a million immortal cultivators here!" Ji Ning sighed as he looked at the immortal cultivators rushing in from the sky, "But I've never heard of an immortal fate conference that could reach this scale."

Ji Xiaoshan also looked up at the endless stream of immortal cultivators flying towards him, his eyes dim, "Opportunities move people's hearts... This Immortal Fate Conference is not ordinary. There are more than 100,000 Wanxiang Zhenren participating in the Immortal Fate Conference alone, and they are all top talents from all major forces."

……

Ji Xiaoshan and the others were chatting, and time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, a golden sun rose up, and bells rang in the imperial city.

clang!
clang! clang!
……

The melodious bell sounded throughout the world, and the lingering sound continued for nine times before stopping. At this time, the countless immortal cultivators gathered outside the imperial city suddenly became quiet.

Rumble!
The four extremely tall gods and demons guarding the gate of the imperial city suddenly opened their eyes, and they pushed open the towering gate one by one. One of the extremely huge gods and demons even said, "You cultivators who want to participate in the Immortal Fate Conference can now enter! Remember! No regrets when you make a move, once you step through this gate, you cannot take a single step back!"

Wow~~~
Suddenly, at the moment when the tall god and demon finished speaking, the Wanxiang Zhenren who had been prepared long ago immediately flew in along the towering city gate.

Ji Xiaoshan, Ji Ning and the other four also followed the dense crowd of immortal cultivators and flew into the imperial city together. They had all been preparing for this Immortal Fate Conference for a long time, so they would not be scared off by the words of the tall god and demon guarding the gate. Flying into the imperial city, what came into view was an extremely wide avenue. A group of imperial guards in golden armor led the way in the air. Following the extremely wide avenue, they soon flew to an extremely large square.

The leader of the Imperial Guards stopped and said in a deep voice, "All of you who are attending the Immortal Fate Conference! Wait here!"

Ji Xiaoshan looked down. The huge square was endless, and the square was already filled with Wanxiang Zhenren.

"It should be starting soon! Let's go down and wait!" Ji Xiaoshan, Ji Ning and others looked at each other and immediately landed on the square paved with black stone slabs.

……

In the main hall at the highest point of Tianmang Palace.

Emperor Xia, dressed in a black robe, sat high on the imperial throne, overlooking the celestial beings who were standing respectfully in two rows below.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" A man in a bright yellow robe took the lead in bowing respectfully.

"We pay our respects to Your Majesty!" Immediately, the fairies standing in two rows saluted together!
At this moment, in the entire Great Xia Imperial City, whether it was the teams led by the princes of the 3,600 counties, the teams of immortal cultivators from all over the world, or the more than 100,000 Wanxiang Zhenren who were about to participate in the Immortal Fate Conference in the square, all knelt down and kowtowed.

"We are waiting to see His Majesty!"

More than one million immortal cultivators saluted together. The scene was so shocking that the sound was like thunder, resounding throughout the heavens and earth.

The black-robed Emperor Xia looked down with a slight smile on his face, his eyes sweeping across the immortals in the hall. His eyes went all the way down, landing on the neat and orderly team of immortal cultivators representing the three thousand six hundred counties and the four oceans, and on the huge square, on the real people of Wanxiang.

“Stand up!” The black-robed Emperor Xia withdrew his gaze and said in a deep voice.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Millions of immortal cultivators responded in unison.

"Prince Qi." The black-robed Emperor Xia's eyelids trembled slightly, and he looked up at the man in the bright yellow robe and said, "The Immortal Fate Conference can begin! Go and read out the rules of this Immortal Fate Conference!"

"Yes!" King Qi responded immediately.

"Go ahead." The black-robed Emperor Xia nodded indifferently.

"Yes!"

Prince Qi received the order and immediately flew out of the main hall of Tianmang Palace and stood above the clouds.

He looked down at the eagerly waiting Wanxiang Zhenren on the black square below, and said in a deep voice, "There are a total of 123,721 people participating in this Immortal Fate Conference! Each of you more than 100,000 participants can get a token, which is the proof of your identity to participate in this Immortal Fate Conference!"

"And you will carry this token and be placed in the Moonlight Landscape Painting, a magical treasure used by His Majesty the Emperor. The Moonlight Landscape Painting is a world of its own. You can fight as you please, and you can also seize other people's tokens at will."

"If you think you are not strong enough, you can choose to abandon this talisman, and then you will be directly moved out of the Moonlight Landscape. But... if you lose the talisman, you will naturally lose the qualification to participate in the Immortal Fate Conference."

"As for those who died in the fight, or those who gave up voluntarily... your tokens can all be obtained by others."

"The first test of this Immortal Fate Conference is to test the strength of you cultivators. Next, you need to spend a year in this Bright Moon Landscape Painting. At the end of the year, the eighty people who get the most letter talismans will be considered to have passed the test of this Bright Moon Landscape Painting."

"Of course, if there are capable people among you who can reduce the number of people remaining in the entire Mingyue Landscape Map to only eighty within a year, then this test will be considered terminated early, and the eighty survivors will be considered to have passed the test."

"This test of the Moonlight Landscape Painting... at least eighty people can pass, and at most ninety-six people can pass. After one year, apart from the eighty people who passed the test directly, there will be the last sixteen spots left. And this opportunity naturally requires you and the rest of you to fight your best and have the final fight... If you can get one of the spots, you can be considered to have passed the test."

……

Prince Qi suddenly became serious. "Every move you make in the Moonlight Landscape Painting is under the watchful eyes of His Majesty the Emperor and the celestial ancestors outside. Any Taoist talismans, puppets, or other strange objects, as well as any other external forces, are prohibited..."

"Remember! Anyone who crosses the line will be killed without mercy!"
