Clouds swirled and mist lingered, amidst the verdant forests, the Tai Bai main branch, sealed for over half a century, finally reopened its mountain gates and appeared before the world once more.

Although, in the past few decades, the Liuyun Sect had not deliberately sealed off the mountain, nor had it forbidden travelers from passing through, as the mountain stronghold of an otherworldly sect, the sect's base, located in the Tai Bai main peak area, remained closed to outsiders.

Moreover, due to certain events that occurred during a special era, and the Liuyun Sect's growing prestige in the local area over the years, many people held a sense of awe towards this Heavenly Sect in their hearts.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, they subconsciously regarded the Heavenly Sect's mountain gate near the main peak as an unapproachable place.

Even if foreign travelers came to visit, unaware of the situation, most of the time they would be consciously guided by others to the branch peaks of Mount Tai Bai.

Therefore, although the Liuyun Sect had a considerable reputation in China, it was mysterious and unpredictable in the eyes of ordinary people, and for nearly half a century, few outsiders had been able to ascend the Heavenly Sect's mountain gate.

Even when family members of the disciples occasionally came to visit, they would be accommodated in the academy at the foot of the mountain as a temporary reception area, and then a special person would notify the disciples to come down the mountain to reunite with them.

Even fellow members of the otherworldly realm, unless it was a special occasion.

For example, when it was the Liuyun Sect's turn to host the Daoist Exchange Conference, or like the time when Bao Yun underwent tribulation, they would actively invite people from the otherworldly realm to come.

Otherwise, even otherworldly beings could not ascend the Heavenly Sect's mountain gate.

Forcibly breaking in was even more impossible. So far, apart from a group of petty thugs who wanted to play with fire during a special era, and were then permanently buried in a corner of the Tai Bai Mountains, no one had dared to stir up trouble at the Heavenly Sect.

On this day, the sky was clear and the birds sang harmoniously.

A group of people with various attires gathered in a certain hostel in Xi'an City, and then, led by a group of officials, came to the Liuyun Sect's mountain gate archway at the foot of Mount Tai Bai.

Most of these people were elderly, interspersed with a few younger ones, some wearing Zhongshan suits, some with a Daoist robe draped over them, and some with nothing different from modern everyday clothes.

Soon, they were led by a group of disciples, headed by the two contemporary Heavenly Sect's head disciples, into the Tai Bai main branch.

Due to historical and other reasons, the Liuyun Sect's occupied area was relatively large~

The distance from the mountain gate archway at the foot of the mountain to the actual mountain gate residence was also quite long, but fortunately, this distance was nothing to a group of accomplished otherworldly beings.

Along the way, the bluestone mountain road underfoot was ancient and wide, the trees in the forest were lush, the mountain flowers were blooming, the wilderness was full of interest, and traces of various small animals often appeared.

The mist lingered, as if it were layers of light snowflakes blown up when a breeze passed over the snow, reflecting the colorful glow under the illumination of the bright sky.

This mist was not ordinary mountain mist, but spiritual mist transformed from genuine heaven and earth spiritual energy, a gift from heaven and earth that cultivators sought after.

It was precisely because of the nourishment of this heaven and earth spiritual energy that the entire Mount Tai Bai seemed to have radiated a different kind of vitality in the past decade.

The previous desolate mountains and forests, messy branches, etc., under the nourishment of this spiritual energy, also began to become extraordinarily spiritual.

Many seemingly ordinary mountain weeds and small flowers also grew exceptionally beautifully.

Walking among them, a group of Daoist leaders from various branches, big shots from various factions, and officials from relevant government departments who had not been out for a long time were also deeply impressed at this time.

From time to time, they would stop and linger between a tree with a good view and the mouth of a cliff, gazing around and chatting easily with each other.

In the process, they did not forget to take a few deep breaths, inhaling the air of longevity.

Walking along the way, although for a group of top figures in the otherworldly realm who had achieved cultivation, this journey was nothing, they were almost all panting, red-faced, and sweating on their foreheads.

The reason for this was naturally not due to any physical problems, but the body's natural reaction after absorbing too much high-quality, high-concentration spiritual mist.

The earth of the DC world originally did not have an outstanding environment of heaven and earth spiritual energy.

If Liang Yue had not appeared, according to normal conditions, it would have been difficult for ordinary cultivators to set foot in the Foundation Establishment realm in their entire lives without a stroke of luck!

And now, because of the azure sapling planted by Liang Yue, the entire Mount Tai Bai, and even the wider surrounding area, had almost been transformed to the same level as the previous stronghold world.

That is~ a cultivation environment suitable for experts in the Nascent Soul stage to survive!

As the center of the azure sapling's exhalation of heaven and earth spiritual energy, the area near the entire Heavenly Sect's mountain gate had even reached the level of a cultivation holy land.

Even if one cultivated all the way to the highest level of the mortal realm, there would be no problem!

Before their eyes, this group of leaders from all sides of the otherworldly realm, most of whose cultivation levels were still hovering in the Qi Refining stage and the Innate realm, encountered such a spiritual energy environment.

Even if only out of biological instinct, they would subconsciously take a few more breaths, the wonderful use of which was naturally something that ordinary people could not enjoy…

Soon, led by several disciples, the group finally arrived at the Heavenly Sect's mountain gate.

The sun was in the sky, and the light shone down.

A vast sea of clouds was hovering around the Tai Bai main peak, the clouds rolled and stretched, surging like waves, reflecting a soft colorful glow.

Under the backdrop of such an environment, a group of Daoist buildings with not-so-strict laws and regulations was located on a majestic mountain platform.

Saying it was a Daoist mountain gate, but in reality, the building complex in front of them was more like an antique, yet unconstrained small city.

Thanks to Yuan Datou, the wealth of the families behind the Liuyun Sect's disciples, and the personal actions of Liang Yue and his sisters at home.

The overall construction style of the Heavenly Sect's mountain gate was actually more inclined towards online games, full of traditional aesthetics with Daoist elements, but also exuding imagination that was different from ancient etiquette everywhere.

Although many people in the team had already come to the Liuyun Sect in front of them more than once, now that they ascended here again, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of shock in their hearts.

Soon, led by the disciples, the group arrived at the city gate of this small city, where the current Heavenly Sect Master Zhi Chong Daoist had already led the new generation of Liuyun leadership to wait.

After the two sides met and exchanged routine greetings for a while, the group entered the mountain gate.

There were about forty or fifty guests who came to the Liuyun Sect this time. In addition to the leadership team from the official level, each leading force in the otherworldly realm also sent about one or two people.

Among them, most were Daoists, a small part were otherworldly forces based on families, and even the Buddhists, who Liang Yue had never liked very much, also came from three families this time.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that it already included all the main mountain peaks and forces in the otherworldly realm.

But at least it also covered those otherworldly forces and organizations that Liang Yue, Bao Yun, and others could remember who had contributed to the country and shed blood during the war years.

Of course, it did not include Quanxing, who was shouted and killed by the entire otherworldly realm.
