Chapter 1465: First Eight, Then One

    

hy Xue Mu, to help her tribe train, developed several formations that could attract the power of the sun."Then, I shall select one formation from them and inscribe it into this medicinal liquid!"Soon,...Following the arrival of Yiyadao Sect and Jianzong, more powerful forces, such as other Daozong, also came to Wendao Zhuzong. However, they were all elders and disciples from the major forces, and no sect master had come in person.

The welcoming bell within the sect, at most, only rang eight times.

Moreover, none of them mentioned the Mountain and Sea Division or Ginger Cloud again.

After some simple pleasantries, they moved into the rooms that Wenda Zong had arranged for them. Nothing unexpected happened.

Even, because of Kenzan and Tendouji's orders, all the cultivators from the two great sects restrained their own auras, to such an extent that other Daoist sect members couldn't even detect their presence.

And this finally let Dao Tianyun truly breathe a sigh of relief, further convinced that his idea was correct, and that there would be no more major forces coming specifically for the Sando Sea Region or Jiang Yun.

Thus, he fully recovered his previous composure, maintaining the demeanor befitting a sect master heir, and continued to sit at the center of the altar, performing his duty as host.

……

"May the heavens protect you, Senior Brother!"

After a day had passed, in a world outside the Main Temple, Dao Tianyou, who was responsible for receiving guests, suddenly heard someone call his name.

And looking at this junior brother who, in his usual days, acted as if he didn't even see him, now standing before him with a fawning smile and bowing obsequiously, Dao Tianyou couldn't help but frown and say, "Junior Brother, what is the matter"

"Junior brother's smile became even brighter as he said, 'Congratulations, Senior Brother Tianyou, your fortunes have turned around now!'"

Dao Tianyou's brow furrowed even tighter. "What do you mean"

"Don't ask any more questions, just follow me quickly! If you don't show up soon, I'm afraid even the sect master will have to come looking for you himself!"

After he finished speaking, the younger disciple didn't give Dao Tianyou any time to ask questions. He rudely grabbed his arm and crushed a piece of formation stone with his hand.

Dazed and confused, Dao Tianyou directly appeared from the boundary gap above the northwest corner of the Wendaizhu Sect.

"Go quickly, the two Daozong Sect Masters personally requested you to entertain them."

While Dao Tianyou's ears only caught the six words "Two Daozong Sect Masters," he was stunned for a long time before finally turning his gaze downwards.

He naturally knew that this was the temporary residence of the disciples of the Shan Hai Fen Zong.

But when he looked at it now, he found that the area, which could originally accommodate a hundred people, was now a little crowded.

Because it had dozens of extra people.

At the same time, Xia Zhongxing below was waving to him: "Dao Sect Master, come down quickly!"

……

When Dao Tian You learned about the identities of these extra people, and their purpose in coming to Shan Hai Fen Zong and Jiang Yun, he was stunned. He couldn't believe what he saw and heard, even suspecting that he was dreaming.

"Dan Daozi smiled and nodded at him, saying: “You are Dao Tianyou I’m Dan Daozi. We're going to need your help these next few days.”

Although Dan Daozi and Jian Sheng insisted on staying at the Shan Hai Fen Zong, as the host, Dao Tianyun would definitely arrange disciples from the main sect to attend to them.

But none of them wanted to do it, they just named names and said 'God bless'.

Unable to do anything else, he told them to quickly go and find Dao Tianyou.

Dao Tianyou finally came to his senses, finally believing that he wasn't dreaming. This made his heart race, his face flush red, and a mist welled up in his eyes.

He wasn't happy for himself, but for the Shan Hai Fen Zong and for Jiang Yun!

Because in his opinion, with these two major factions and the protection of the two sect masters, the safety of the Shanhai Branch and Jiangyun would naturally be no problem.

Looking at Dao Tianyou's excited expression, his eyes that had turned red in an instant, a glimmer flashed in Dan Daozi's eyes.

Before Tianyou could even speak, Danzi, with his powerful divine sense and lofty status, immediately noticed the severed finger hidden within Tianyou's sleeve.

Therefore, Dan Daozi beckoned him over and said, "Come and sit down. We don't need any attendants. We just heard that you chose Jiang Yun as the head of the branch sect back then, so we wanted to have a chat with you."

Of course, Ginger Cloud is my younger brother, and you are his benefactor. If you have any difficulties, just let me know.

Although I'm just an outsider, I think, in my position, I should be able to help you out a little.

Dao Tianyou took a deep breath and walked to Dan Daozi's side, but he didn't dare sit down. He respectfully stood there and shook his head vigorously. "I have no difficulties. I only hope that the senior will take good care of Shanhai Branch Sect and Jiangyun!"

This statement made Dan Daozi feel even more favorable towards Dao Tianyou. He nodded and said, “That’s natural.”

While speaking, Dan Daozi also took out a jade bottle and handed it to Dao Tianyou: “There are a few pills here. You’d better take them now. They can help your severed finger grow back.”

Dan Daozi, the headmaster of Yaodao Sect and a master of alchemy, could tell at a glance that Daitian You's finger had been broken recently. He specially took out this bottle of elixir to help Daitian You regrow his finger.

Looking at the medicine bottle in front of him, Dao Tianyou's body trembled slightly.

He naturally knew the preciousness of this pill and that Dan Daozi would never deceive him.

But, glancing at the Heavenly Mandate above him, where did he dare to ask for this bottle of medicine.

Ultimately, the pill was still taken back by Dan Daozi, but Dan Daozi noticed Dao Tianyou's just-now gaze and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

No matter what, with Dan Daozi's personal agreement, during the last few days before the grand competition began, Dao Tianyou no longer needed to perform his welcoming duties. He could stay put at Shanhai Branch Sect and focus on other matters.

This is naturally a good thing for Dao Tianyou as well, at least he can spend a few more days with the people of the Shanhai Branch.

In the blink of an eye, two more days have passed. Within these two days, most of the major powers in this world have basically arrived.

And just like the first day, there has never been another instance of both major sect leaders appearing consecutively.

Naturally, this also allowed Dao Tianyun's heart to settle comfortably in his stomach.

Over the past two days, he could be said to have been in the limelight, truly making a name for himself. He has now become well-known to most people as Daitian Yun.

At this moment, he had just seen off the disciples of the Jinding Daozong, one of the Nine Great Sects. He was still sitting in the center of the altar, secretly calculating the list of guests in his mind, wondering which major forces hadn't arrived yet.

Now seven of the Nine Great Sects have arrived, with only two left. There are also several Great Heavenly Lords coming, and people from the Dao God Palace haven't arrived yet!

Generally speaking, all guests who come to attend the ceremony will arrive on the day before the competition, as the last day is reserved for gatherings.

That means that over the next two days, all the guests will definitely arrive!

Just as the thought crossed Dao Tianyun's mind, a melodious bell chime sounded once more within the halls of the Questioning Dao Master Sect.

Although the bell has rung hundreds of times these past two days, every time it rings, it still catches everyone's attention.

Dao Tianyun once again stood up, straightened his clothes, composed himself in the most appropriate manner, and with a smile stepped onto the sky.

"Ding dong!"

The melodious chime of the bell rang eight times, signaling to everyone present that this must be a visiting elder from some powerful sect.

However, after a moment had passed, another "clang" of the bell rang out!

Nine times the bell tolls!

...and it's eight first, then one!
