Chapter 2: Supreme Glory (2)
The order of the peaks from left to right is: Huoyun Lian Dan Peak, Huoyun Zong Main Peak, and Huoyun Lian Qi Peak, with over 3 million disciples.
After lining up, the three phalanxes were neat and uniform. Not a bit of disorder could be seen. This also reflects the overall discipline and quality of Huoyun Sect.
The ancient and solemn Huoyun Hall suddenly opened its doors wide. Nine people walked out in a row, led by a slender figure with a stern face. Judging from his appearance, he was about forty years old, but his actual age remained to be verified. He wore the robe of the sect master and donned the crown of the sect master. As he stood there, he naturally emitted an aura that looked down upon the heavens and shocked the earth.
This man is the current master of Huoyun Sect, Nan Baitian. He has been in the integration period for a high-level cultivation and has taken over as the sect master for more than 300 years, managing Huoyun Sect with great order. He is deeply loved by everyone in Huoyun Sect.
The eight young men behind Nan Batian felt the earth-shaking aura on their master's (father's) body, and each of their eyes was filled with admiration and yearning.
Reaching the ultimate state of harmony between heaven and man, Nan Batian had a clear understanding of the situation within a hundred miles. He nodded in satisfaction at the three formations on the square in front of him. In a loud voice, he said: "All disciples, open the Fire Cloud Bridge and welcome the honored guests of the Fire Cloud Sect." The sound was not loud, but it spread throughout the six peaks of Huoyun. Even Zifeng standing at the foot of the mountain could hear it clearly.
"Long live the law!" The voices of over three million people in the square echoed as one. Their thunderous roar shook the heavens!
Only the inner disciples on the square saw that, simultaneously stirring up the fire attribute true energy or true yuan in their bodies. They released it outside, pouring it into the mysterious array diagram carved on the square, and suddenly a flame lit up within a radius of 10,000 meters around the square. The flames then flowed and turned, like waves, surging around the perimeter of the square.
The flames gradually rose into the air, gathered together, and condensed into a fire-cloud-shaped floating bridge, which stretched from the Fire Cloud Temple Square to the foot of the main peak.
Zi Feng saw the Fire Cloud Bridge descending from the sky, and his body trembled violently with excitement. This was the highest honor of the Huo Yun Sect! Except for the other five sect masters and the seven holders of the Huo Yun Token, no one else was qualified to enjoy this highest honor! As a loose cultivator, how could Zi Feng not be excited?! It's worth noting that the Fire Cloud Bridge had only been opened ten times since the founding of the Huo Yun Sect, spanning thousands of years. The first time was during the sect's founding ceremony, and the seventh time was during the celebration of the Huo Yun Sect's promotion to the upper gate. The other eight times were all welcoming ceremonies for the holders of the Huo Yun Token when they came to the sect.
"Please come aboard, noble guest." Suddenly, a stern voice from Nanbatian echoed beside his ear.
Zi Feng, who was slightly dazed, immediately came to. Seeing the child in her arms suffering endlessly, she lifted her head and stepped onto the Fire Cloud Bridge with a proud chest.
When Zǐ Fēng stepped onto the Huǒ Yún Bridge, a layer of light shield immediately rose on the bridge surface, enveloping Zǐ Fēng within. It then extended to the foot of the mountain and slowly retracted, lifting Zǐ Fēng's figure higher and higher until he was hovering above the outer square of the Huǒ Yún Temple. As he looked down at the thousands of Huǒ Yún Sect disciples below, Zǐ Fēng's heart was filled with shock!
At this moment, a loud and pleasant melody floated above the Fire Cloud Temple, and a cluster of fire-red clouds burst forth in the sky. Eighty-one giant fire clouds formed, illuminating the night sky for thousands of miles around. Even from thousands of miles away, one could clearly see the spectacular sight above the Fire Cloud Sect.
