Chapter 55 Gu Changsheng Makes His Appearance! The Heavenly Emperor's Birthday Banquet! Gifts Abound!
In the crowd.
A group of people stood out conspicuously.
It was the Li family of Beiyuan.
Li Teng, who was once arrogant and claimed to have the potential to become an emperor, is now walking at the very front.
He changed out of his brocade robes and into a plain long robe, his temperament bending at a ninety-degree angle, bowing in the direction of the Heavenly Court with every step he took.
His respectful demeanor was completely different from his previous arrogance.
And behind him.
A ragged figure was struggling to keep up with the group.
It was Yu Xiaogang.
He kept his head down, trying to hide himself in the shadows of the horses, as if afraid of being recognized.
But the camera in the sky was quite unkind, giving him a close-up shot.
"Puff..."
Flander spat out the tea he had just drunk.
"Xiao Gang... this..."
Although he knew Yu Xiaogang was in a bad situation, seeing him in the grand scene of all races paying homage was still visually overwhelming.
In front of the Heavenly Court Gate.
Li Teng stopped and bowed deeply to the heavenly soldiers guarding the gate.
"Li Teng of the Li family of Beiyuan, along with his servants, presents this humble gift to wish the Heavenly Emperor a long and prosperous life!"
His voice was loud and clear, radiating utmost sincerity.
What kind of imperial potential does he possess?
Before the true Heavenly Emperor, even dragons must coil up and tigers must lie down!
Yu Xiaogang quickly knelt down as well, buried his head on the ground, and trembled all over.
...
Thump—!
Just then.
A melodious bell rang out from the depths of the Heavenly Court.
The sound was not deafening.
It was as if it struck directly into the depths of everyone's soul.
In an instant.
All the noise disappeared.
All living beings knelt on the ground, their expressions solemn.
The sound of the bell contains the supreme Taoist essence, as if it is washing away the dust of the world.
Douluo Continent.
Everyone watching the sky suddenly shuddered.
"My soul power..."
Dai Mubai's eyes widened as he felt the sudden surge of soul power within his body.
It was just a chime through the screen.
Surprisingly, the bottleneck that had kept him stuck for so long has loosened up?
"Is this the Heavenly Emperor's method?"
Bibi Dong stood in front of the Papal Palace, her eyes closed, greedily sensing the Daoist aura emanating from the sky.
"If only I could hear the sermon in person..."
"It's not an exaggeration to say that one could become a god on the spot!"
Thump—!
The second bell rang.
"That's amazing!"
"The Heavenly Emperor is preaching; he is here to save all living beings!"
"I can't wait! In the whole world, the Heavenly Emperor is the strongest being. Even his words and actions are enough to influence the Heavenly Dao. At this time, his teachings will surely benefit people greatly!"
"..."
Everyone went crazy.
They stared intently at the screen, afraid of missing a single detail.
...
In the celestial display.
As the bells rang out.
A burst of rosy light erupted from the sky, turning the entire sky golden.
In that endless golden light.
A golden sea of suffering appeared out of nowhere, its waves surging and its roar deafening.
In that sea of suffering, golden lotuses bloom, swaying gracefully.
Immediately afterwards.
A bright moon rises over the sea, a celestial king descends to the heavens, and the land is adorned with magnificent rivers and mountains...
Nine extraordinary phenomena appeared one by one, eventually intertwining and merging in the void to form a dazzling divine ring that floated above the Heavenly Palace.
The center of the divine ring.
Gu Changsheng, dressed in white like a painting, sat cross-legged in the void.
He did not exert any pressure.
But when he sits there, he is the center of heaven and earth, the embodiment of the Great Dao.
"Greetings, Heavenly Emperor!"
All living beings of all races shouted in unison, their voices like a tidal wave, shaking the heavens.
What a magnificent scene it was!
Gu Changsheng nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping across the area below.
"Rise."
Just one word.
Yet all the kneeling beings felt a gentle force lifting them up.
The gift-giving ceremony begins.
The first person to emerge was a stunningly beautiful woman with a graceful figure.
She wore a pure white palace dress, her temperament was aloof and ethereal, like a snow lotus blooming on the top of a snow-capped mountain.
The Holy Lord of Yaochi.
She held a jade plate in both hands, on which lay a fist-sized piece of green metal, on which tear stains seemed to flow.
"At the sacred Jade Pool, we offer a piece of green gold made from celestial tears, wishing the Heavenly Emperor eternal bliss."
These words were spoken.
The myriad races below immediately erupted in uproar.
"Immortal Tears Green Gold? That's a sacred artifact exclusively used to forge supreme imperial weapons!"
"Yaochi has really gone all out!"
Although those on the Douluo Continent didn't understand what Immortal Tear Green Gold was, they knew from the shocked expressions of the powerful figures that this thing was absolutely priceless.
Immediately afterwards.
The Palace Master of Dao Palace stepped forward.
This is a beautiful woman who still retains her charm, holding an antique scroll in her hands.
"The Dao Palace presents a genuine work by an ancient emperor."
The Valley Master of Divine Medicine Valley walked up cautiously.
"Divine Medicine Valley offers a single Vermilion Fruit, which can extend one's lifespan by eight hundred years."
...
One after another, astonishing treasures were sent up.
Beside Gu Changsheng.
A large black dog, about the size of a calf, stood upright, its paws rubbing together incessantly, its mouth stretched wide to its ears.
They are descendants of the Black Emperor.
"Keep them, keep them all!"
"Hey you, put that green gold piece on the left, don't let it get damaged!"
"Handle that herb gently! It's for my master to make tea!"
It has the air of a busybody, which makes people laugh but also feel envious and jealous.
Any one of these treasures, if it were to slip out, would be enough to cause a bloodbath throughout the entire Douluo Continent.
Just then.
In the eastern sky, a vast expanse of purple aura stretched for 30,000 miles.
A purple figure descended from the sky.
She wore a purple-gold imperial robe and a phoenix crown. Her temperament was unparalleled, and her brows exuded an innate nobility and domineering aura.
Empress Ziwei!
Although she has not yet truly become an emperor, her aura has already subtly overwhelmed all the holy lords present.
She walked step by step to the front of the main hall.
Instead of kneeling like the others, she bowed slightly, performing a gesture of respect befitting an equal.
"The Purple Star Domain presents ten thousand catties of Crimson Sun Radiance Gold."
Boom!
The whole place erupted in chaos.
Ten thousand catties?
That's enough to forge an ultimate imperial weapon!
This is hardly a gift-giving activity.
This is practically a dowry!
"Hiss—"
A chorus of gasps filled the air.
"This Empress Ziwei indeed has a close relationship with the Heavenly Emperor."
"Such a large-scale project, besides that person, who else could afford it?"
Tang San and the others in front of the sky were also dumbfounded.
"Isn't this a bit too extravagant?"
"If I had that piece of metal, I could forge so many wrathful lotus flowers..."
In the picture.
Empress Ziwei raised her head, her beautiful eyes staring straight at Gu Changsheng on the high platform.
Her eyes held a hint of resentment, a hint of expectation, and an unconcealable affection.
The Holy Lord of Yaochi and the Palace Master of Dao Palace exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of wariness in each other's eyes.
This is a formidable rival!
Gu Changsheng looked down at Empress Ziwei, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Their eyes met in mid-air.
Gu Changsheng understood the meaning in her eyes:
"I'm here. You decide what to do."
But he didn't say much.
Even in public, one must maintain the demeanor of the Heavenly Emperor.
He nodded slightly and waved his hand to accept the mountain of crimson gold.
"Take a seat."
The voice was calm.
