"Indeed, they are creatures favored by Dao Ancestor Hongjun and recognized by the Heavenly Dao."
"Yes, otherwise they wouldn't have found the legendary immortal mountains!"
"In this case, for these two to unify the Primordial Era, isn't it the arrangement of heaven's will!"
The beings of the Primordial Era watched Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu bathed in boundless merit, discussing amongst themselves. They could not help but admit that Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu were destined by heaven.
Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu, seeing this scene, exchanged glances and felt the joy and excitement in each other's eyes.
This was the Heavenly Dao's recognition of their actions; they were destined by heaven!
Seeing the boundless merit enveloping them, they immediately began to absorb the merit around them to enhance themselves.
Soon, Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu finished absorbing the merit. With the help of merit, their cultivation realms leaped to the peak of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu were overjoyed. In the current Primordial Era, powerful figures like Luohu were either dead or in seclusion. The highest openly acknowledged realm was that of the Saint, belonging to Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
Below Saints were only the powerful Grand Unity Golden Immortals, with not even a Quasi-Saint in sight.
Now that they had ascended to the peak of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm, wouldn't they have the opportunity to reach the Quasi-Saint realm faster than other powerful beings?
This way, they would have the absolute strength to unify the Primordial Era with their Immortal Court, which would no longer be a mere aspiration!
With this thought, Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu were filled with grand ambition and could not help but envision a beautiful future.
However, they did not forget what they were doing at the moment. After forcibly suppressing their excitement, they seized this opportunity to announce to the world and continued to speak.
"The Immortal Court has now been established, and a new era begins. I, Dong Wang Gong, hereby invite all immortals in the Primordial Era to join the Immortal Court and participate in this grand undertaking!"
"Indeed, we wish you all to join hands and create a beautiful Primordial Era. The Immortal Court looks forward to your joining to end the disputes of the Primordial Era!"
Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu were filled with confidence and extended their invitation to all beings in the Primordial Era.
After all, they had just absorbed merit and advanced their cultivation, placing them far above most powerful beings in the Primordial Era.
But with just the two of them, they could not support such a grand Immortal Court. They naturally needed to recruit more forces and strengthen the Immortal Court.
After their words fell, they followed suit, descending onto Yingzhou Island, awaiting the arrival of the immortals of the Primordial Era to establish the Immortal Court.
The enthusiasm of the beings in the Primordial Era did not cool down with the disappearance of Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu. Even after the celestial vision faded, they were still discussing animatedly.
"Haha! The Immortal Court has just been established, and the two Immortal Lords have extended such a generous invitation, how can I not join?"
"Indeed, we shall immediately head to the Immortal Court and pay our respects to the two Immortal Lords!"
"Everyone, what are you hesitating for? This is a once-in-ten-thousand-year opportunity!"
Wasn't this precisely a once-in-ten-thousand-year opportunity?
The Immortal Court had just been established, and there was a great need for capable individuals. If they rushed to the Immortal Court now, they might gain an advantage and become founding members, holding a certain position within the Immortal Court.
What? You ask why join the Immortal Court?
Are you foolish? Do you not know their identities? These two are the heads of the male and female immortals officially appointed by Dao Ancestor Hongjun, with the foremost Saint in the heavens and earth as their backer.
Just now, when these two made their announcement to the heavens and earth, boundless merit descended, and the Heavenly Dao already acknowledged their destiny.
Thus, with the establishment of the Immortal Court by these two, and its recognition by the Heavenly Dao, they would surely follow the grand trend and unify the Primordial Era, truly commanding all immortals under heaven.
Therefore, to pledge allegiance to them now, a brilliant future and a radiant path forward would be easily attained!
To not seize such an opportunity and instead bury oneself in cultivation, isn't that foolish?
Under such reasoning, the beings of the Primordial Era were all deeply moved.
Throughout the Primordial Era, countless beings began to move, heading towards the East Sea to prepare to join the Immortal Court.
Of course, there were those who held opposing views, such as the Demon Clan.
At this moment, Emperor Taiyi of the East was filled with indignation.
"Hmph! Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu, what fine titles, heads of male and female immortals!"
Emperor Taiyi snorted coldly, full of resentment.
"Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu, in terms of origin and background, how do they compare to us brothers? Why should they be the heads of male and female immortals?"
Emperor Taiyi was still dissatisfied with Dao Ancestor Hongjun's arrangements. Especially after seeing Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu break through to the peak of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal by leveraging the merit from establishing the Immortal Court, his resentment grew.
He had initially thought the titles of male and female immortals were insignificant, merely allowing Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu a moment of fleeting glory. He never expected such benefits to be attached, which truly infuriated him!
Therefore, Emperor Taiyi's resentment was not about the titles themselves, but why these titles did not belong to their Demon Clan.
Di Jun's view on this matter was similar to Emperor Taiyi's, and he nodded repeatedly.
"Indeed, Dong Wang Gong is merely a rogue cultivator, yet now he has ascended to the heavens overnight and established this so-called Immortal Court."
"Currently, the Wu and Yao clans hold the greatest power in the Primordial Era. This Dong Wang Gong's boast of unifying the Primordial Era, is he intending to oppose our Yao clan?"
Di Jun's thoughts were clearly deeper than Emperor Taiyi's. He was now contemplating Dong Wang Gong's grand declaration upon the establishment of the Immortal Court, and his brow furrowed.
"Great brother, why don't we immediately gather our forces, invade the Immortal Court, and eliminate Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu!"
Seeing this, Emperor Taiyi realized the gravity of the situation, which was no longer a mere dispute over titles. He immediately suggested.
The Immortal Court had just been established, and Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu were merely figureheads. What if their cultivation realms were high? The Demon Clan was vast; could they not defeat these two heads of male and female immortals?
"Cease your foolish talk!"
Di Jun rebuked him and shook his head.
"Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu were appointed by Dao Ancestor. Now they have the recognition of the Heavenly Dao. Would our actions not be going against heaven's will?"
"This..."
Emperor Taiyi's expression faltered. Let alone opposing the Heavenly Dao, even the wrath of Dao Ancestor Hongjun was something their Demon Clan could not withstand.
However, Emperor Taiyi was still unwilling to accept it.
"Are we just going to give up like this?"
If they sat by and watched, given Dong Wang Gong and Xi Wang Mu's ambition, they would truly unify the Primordial Era under the name of the Immortal Court, and the Demon Clan would cease to exist.
"Taiyi, you are still too rash."
Di Jun, upon hearing this, chuckled.
"You must understand that our Yao clan is not the only prominent force in this Primordial Era. The Wu clan is also eyeing it covetously."
"If we are troubled by this, wouldn't the Wu clan also be troubled?"
Emperor Taiyi suddenly understood.
Indeed, the Wu and Yao clans were locked in a fierce struggle for dominance over the Primordial Era.
Now that the Immortal Court had suddenly emerged, it wasn't just them who were troubled; the Wu clan was likely facing a major headache as well.
