Mount Tai, majestic and imposing, is revered as the foremost of the Five Sacred Mountains and is known as the Number One Mountain under Heaven.
Since ancient times, Mount Tai has been a sacred symbol. Located in the easternmost part of the ancient Central Plains region, it is surrounded by the Yellow River and the Wen River. In ancient times, it was regarded as the place where the sun first rises and all things grow.
No mountain is greater than it, and no history is more ancient than it!
Mount Tai is majestic and magnificent, with a rich historical heritage that can be traced back to the time of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in ancient times. It is a place close to the gods.
"The heavens are too high to reach, so we set up the Fengshan ceremony on Mount Tai to worship them, hoping to get closer to the gods." Both Qin Shi Huang, who swept across the land, and Emperor Wu of Han, a man of great talent and ambition, held the unprecedented Fengshan ceremony on Mount Tai.
Prior to this, seventy-two emperors had performed the Fengshan ceremony at Mount Tai.
In ancient times, without exception, many holy emperors and ancient emperors chose to perform the Fengshan ceremony here, which shrouded Mount Tai in layers of mist and gave it an endless mysterious aura.
As evening fell, Ye Fan, the protagonist, finally reached the summit of Mount Tai—the Jade Emperor Peak.
Just as they looked down at the mountains below and gazed at the Yellow River, several black dots appeared on the distant horizon, which gradually grew larger, accompanied by the sounds of wind and thunder.
Nine enormous creatures descended from the sky, like nine long black rivers falling down. At that moment, everyone on Mount Tai was frozen in shock, staring at each other in astonishment.
It turned out to be nine enormous dragon corpses, pulling a bronze coffin, pressing down towards the summit of Mount Tai.
The tourists on the mountain were stunned, holding their breath and even forgetting to shout and run for their lives.
After a brief silence, chaos erupted as everyone panicked and fled in all directions to avoid the approaching black dragon corpse.
This is a breathtaking scene: in the blood-red sunset, nine dragons pull a coffin down to Mount Tai!
Terrified screams and helpless cries filled the air as everyone fled.
The nine dragons pulling the coffin did not fall very quickly, because the force of the impact was greatly reduced due to the guidance of a mysterious power.
But when it actually landed, it still shook the summit of Mount Tai.
"boom"
The nine enormous creatures seemed to sink like nine mountain ranges, causing the Jade Emperor Peak to crack and splinter, with soil and rocks flying everywhere and dust filling the air.
The bronze coffin crashed onto the summit of Mount Tai with a loud clang, causing the mountain to shake as if an earthquake had occurred.
Many rocks tumbled down, making a rumbling sound, like a thousand horses galloping.
Just as the tourists were scrambling to escape and shouting for help, about to be seriously injured by falling rocks and trampling, a black dot suddenly appeared on the distant horizon.
Zhang Bairen arrived just in time and used his gravity beam and spatial teleportation.
They sent all the people who were about to be injured to the foot of the mountain.
The tumbling rocks were locked in by the golden light and floated in mid-air.
Ordinary people who fell and were injured were enveloped in green light and carried to an open area at the foot of the mountain.
Zhang Bairen neither paid much attention to nor saved the ordinary people who were not yet injured.
Because among them were Ye Fan and his group.
This is both their opportunity and their danger; how they choose to proceed is entirely up to them.
After rescuing everyone from Mount Tai, Zhang Bairen took out his phone and made a call.
"Hello, this is Zhang Bairen, and I am currently located in Mount Tai."
"You can have the elders come over now. After the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin leaves, remember to protect the Mount Tai Ruins. This is the teleportation array to the Ancient Star Road." Zhang Bairen finished speaking and hung up the phone.
The relationship between Zhang Bairen and Longhu Mountain is somewhat unusual.
Although he is nominally the Holy Son, he is the young master of the sect.
Even Zhang Tianshi and the elders dared not presume to act arrogantly in front of Zhang Bairen.
Because they knew just how outrageous Zhang Bairen's background was.
Therefore, Zhang Bairen never used any honorific title for the sect leader; they only communicated normally.
The leader of Longhu Mountain, on the other hand, often used honorifics to address Zhang Bairen, the Holy Son.
In the sect leader's view, Zhang Bairen was not the Holy Son of Longhu Mountain, but the Holy Son of the Daoist sect!
Sent here personally by the Supreme Lord, isn't this the Holy Son of the Daoist Sect?!
Moreover, being chosen by the Supreme Lord was a great honor for the Taoist community of Longhu Mountain.
"Yes, I understand!" came an excited male voice from the other end of the phone.
Soon, streaks of sword light appeared, and one after another, white-bearded old men in Taoist robes arrived behind Zhang Bairen.
For cultivators at the Dragon Transformation stage, the distances within the mortal realm are ridiculously small.
With one step, one can traverse thousands of mountains and rivers.
The scene of the Taoist priest emerging from the mountain left ordinary people near Mount Tai dumbfounded and incredulous.
These people's worldviews have been completely destroyed.
First, nine dragons pulled the coffin, then the Taoist priests arrived. Anyone who saw this scene would feel a sense of disbelief, as if a myth had come to life!
The elders of Longhu Mountain, who had rushed over, also showed a unified expression of extreme shock.
Nine enormous dragon corpses, each a hundred meters long, lay mostly horizontally on the mountaintop, with smaller portions hanging below the cliff, resembling a black steel Great Wall, exuding a powerful and awe-inspiring presence that was extremely visually striking.
The Jade Emperor Peak of Mount Tai was cracked by the earthquake, and the ground was covered with terrible cracks.
The twenty-meter-long bronze coffin was simple and unadorned, with some ancient patterns on it, full of the vicissitudes of time, and a mysterious aura emanated from it.
Beneath the bronze coffin, a simple and elegant five-colored altar rises from the ground, breaking through the dust of long years and reappearing before the world.
From afar, the majestic summit of Mount Tai appears as if it is wearing a five-colored crown.
"Your Holiness, what a miracle this is!?" The elderly Taoist priest, who had once consulted Zhang Bairen, expressed his astonishment with utmost respect.
"No need to ask any more questions, no need to say anything more. If you have any doubts, just ask the sect leader." After saying this, Zhang Bairen quickly approached the bronze coffin.
At the summit of Mount Tai, atop Jade Emperor Peak, Ye Fan and his companions were near the bronze coffin.
They were neither injured nor separated, so they were quite lucky.
Zhang Bairen led a group of Taoist priests to the bronze coffin.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin is a means of transportation for interstellar travel."
If you are not afraid of death, you may follow me into the coffin and embark on the ancient starry road to seek out the ancient sages.
Let me state upfront that I will not stop any of you, nor will I act as your babysitter or protect your lives.
Now, the choice is yours.
"Whether you're an ordinary person or a cultivator, you can choose freely." After Zhang Bairen finished speaking, he ignored Ye Fan and the others, as well as the elders of Longhu Mountain behind him, and directly pushed open the coffin lid, bent down and entered.
"What should we do?!" The Longhu Mountain elders, looking bewildered, exchanged bewildered glances and stood frozen in place.
As the sect leader, Zhang Tianshi was the first to react.
So he began to explain, "I've heard the Holy Son say that this Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin will take him to the Ancient Star Road; this is his true destiny."
If any of you wish to take a risk, you may follow the Holy Son away.
The unknowns of the starry sky, I know nothing of either.
