The Xu Family Ancestral Land was adorned with lanterns and streamers, and guests were as numerous as the tide.
In a few days, it would be Xu Lanshan's spectacle ceremony, a grand event that happens once in a century. Cultivators from all over who had heard the news came tirelessly if they could. Even some reclusive Dao Foundation Ancestors brought the younger generation of their families, traveling over mountains and rivers, just to see the spectacle.
The outer city of the ancestral land was open to all, bustling with activity; whereas the Motoyama was heavily guarded, strictly prohibiting any access. At that time, the cultivators would observe the ceremony from a hundred miles away. At this distance, Dharma Image Cultivators could clearly sense the aura of the Heavenly Tribulation, which would help them gain insights. As for the Dao Foundation Ancestors, they could only infer a thing or two from the expressions of the Dharma Image Cultivators.
