Tao Yu sensed Heavenly Immortal messengers entering his Human Dao Dynasty, identifying them as transformed hairs from Mei Mountain Great Saint Yuan Hong. One reached the Divine Capital to deliver an invitation to Golden Turtle Island's banquet on behalf of the Island Master, but was instantly crushed by the Power of Human Dao and forced to kneel before the Imperial Palace. Gao Lan declared it an offense against the Human Emperor, while Tao Yu issued a counter-edict demanding Yuan Hong come personally to apologize.

Not merely dropping by the Divine Capital, the Golden Turtle Island envoy ensures that no Dharma Body masters from the Seven Overseas Realms and Twenty-Eight Islands can evade this summons.

With no powerful allies and a fragile base, Yuan Hong's earlier wavering had cost him chances to align with Other Shore entities, whether the Demon Emperor, Demon Saint, or Jie Sect Saint.

Nevertheless, Yuan Hong stands as a premier Creation powerhouse. His Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill achieves flawless mastery, rivaling Yang Jian's prowess.

Even without expertise in divining Heavenly Secrets, Creation Realm experts effortlessly pinpoint numerous Dharma Body locations and dispatch their summons...

Yet right when Dharma Bodies across regions got these invitations and experienced varied reactions,

From the Divine Capital's heart, the long-silent Emperor proclaimed a fresh edict, broadcasting it far and wide.

Coinciding precisely with the Golden Turtle Island feast summons, a grand Gathering of Immortals unfolds in the Divine Capital too, calling Dharma Bodies worldwide alongside envoys from great clans and sects.

This perfectly timed declaration clashes head-on like blade against lance, unmistakably countering the Golden Turtle Island messenger's call!

Dharma Bodies of the Righteous Path—like Lu Da, He Qi, Kong Wen, and Chong He—felt powerless before the Heavenly Immortal's invite and sensed the dark aura of its sender.

Still, the might of Heavenly Immortals weighed heavily upon them.

While they pondered and delayed plotting a response, Tao Yu's edict struck at the perfect moment!

Moreover, Tao Yu's feat of subduing the Heavenly Immortal envoy occurred openly, observed by all in the Divine Capital.

Be it embedded spies or intelligence networks, word of this had already proliferated everywhere!

"Subduing a Heavenly Immortal—that's truly formidable."

Mr. Lu Da exemplifies steady progress triumphing. Lacking standout talent, his 'Concentration' knack elevated him to peak status in the Current World's Realm, second only to Tao Yu.

Similar to Su Wuming, legendary traits emerged from him even in his Dharma Body days.

"The Emperor's word demands our attendance, of course."

Swift in resolve, Mr. Lu Da prompted Huamei Manor to declare publicly his timely arrival!

Golden Turtle Island must receive regrets instead!

Though mightier forces may lurk behind Golden Turtle Island, their dispatched Heavenly Immortal envoy reveals merely the surface.

Unsure if this Emperor endures the backlash,

With the throne's master opting for this path, Lu Da pledges his backing!

"Transformations under the Emperor's rule glare plainly. Be it dormant ancients or Great Powers shielding Golden Turtle Island, absent before yet now seeking to boss the champions upon rising—that won't fly..."

...

At Chunyang Sect, Chong He—bolstered by Tao Yu's aid—has substantially mended from the Six Paths Master's rebound.

His True Spirit once listed on the Investiture of the Gods. Defying the Six Paths Master's order shackled even this Dharma Body swordmaster of the Immortal Slayer Sword Formation severely.

He staked his existence to reject that command, enduring devastating wounds: True Spirit fractured, soul shredded nearly beyond repair.

By fortune, Tao Yu's methods propped him up for survival another round.

Even thus, recent years centered on recovery; he's merely scraped back to form, far from peak vigor.

Meanwhile, Kong Wen, rescued by Tao Yu, brushed off Golden Turtle Island's menaces as a monk and echoed the stance.

Cui Qinghe, sole noble family Dharma Body, owed Tao Yu for dodging demise back then, so he led in voicing allegiance!

Post-ascension, Tao Yu relentlessly curbed noble clans in his domain.

Regardless, Cui Family spearheaded the decline, self-sacrificing as Tao Yu's steadfast followers—and this occasion proves identical!

Following came Su Wuming, then He Qi, both declaring loyalties outright.

Every Righteous Path Dharma Body rallied to Tao Yu's banner in solidarity!

Yet 'East Sea Sword Manor' bore arguably the fiercest strain, responding latest and nearest the seas.

'East Sea Sword Manor''s position acts as mainland sentinel or cushion against the Seven Overseas Realms and Twenty-Eight Islands.

Conflicts brewing, it stands first in the line of fire.

Despite that peril, He Qi fearlessly proclaimed open endorsement amid the squeeze.

Faintly, even common folk detected the swirling tides of tension...

...

Prior to Tao Yu's rise, Grassland's Guldo—Heavenly List's apex with his Heavenly Punishment Axe—ruled the steppes, coveting the Central Plains.

Rumors sporadically swirled of Guldo attaining Earth Immortal breakthrough, poised for southern invasion, sparking widespread dread each time.

All that halted amid the epic righteous-evil clash over Divine Capital, birthing the surprise sovereign!

Though Guldo's feats stayed unseen by most, the Emperor's deeds shone undeniable, now collectively deemed beyond Guldo's!

Hence, Grassland stayed unusually subdued lately, utterly inactive, as if the ex-top Heavenly Lister, demoted to second, evaporated entirely.
