Chapter 656: Chapter 259: He Stands Where Heavenly Light Pours Down_3
"Child, what’s wrong with you?" Seeing her unusual posture, Taozhu Da Feng Immortal quickly showed concern, "Are you feeling unwell? Stop for now to avoid getting hurt."
"No... it can’t end!"
"What?"
Gu Lan gritted her teeth, "The Luoshen Festival can’t end. I must continue! If we fail, everyone’s confidence will dissipate." She looked at the anxious crowd, "We can’t let everyone be disappointed in Dafeng City and the farming family... The identity of a farming disciple, the recognition of Luoshen, these are things we take pride in and cannot let their purity be questioned."
"Child, this is our fault, not yours."
"I am a member of the farming family, standing here means I must bear the responsibility." Saying this, she continued to invoke the communion with nature to call upon Luoshen’s will.
"What are you doing! Stop it! You will get hurt!" Taozhu Da Feng Immortal exclaimed.
Yet when he looked at Gu Lan again, he found that she seemed entirely different.
Incredibly confident, incredibly radiant, as if everything was within her grasp.
She smiled and said, "Perhaps from the start, we should have thought of one thing. Luoshen, amidst the millions of living beings’ thirst, came carrying the will of heaven, protecting water and land for millennia. What Luoshen recognized was not the great farming families, nor the small Immortal Farmers, but the multitude of beings who diligently cultivated this land. The Luoshen Envoy represents the wishes of all beings to Luoshen, and naturally should be with them. Just standing here and enjoying the honor brought by being the Luoshen Envoy without doing anything real, how can Luoshen approve of that?"
In that instant, Taozhu Da Feng Immortal felt Gu Lan’s figure seemed to grow taller,
"What do you plan to do?"
"I will become a true Luoshen Envoy."
"But, that would be a great burden on you!"
"Then we shall all bear it together."
Taozhu Da Feng Immortal did not know what Gu Lan would do, but he was willing to trust this child who had brought miracles before.
He displayed the composure and prestige of a Great Feng Immortal and quickly took control of the situation.
Gu Lan closed her eyes, her Flying Celestial Bun cascading golden, wheat-like light behind her.
Luoshen’s vast will completely enveloped her.
With her level of cultivation, she could not possibly bear it, which is why Daiyue Da Feng Immortal needed to act in secret.
But at that moment, a gentle and unique path was shrouding her.
Named, Life Dao.
In the Map of All Living Creatures, the Fire of Life of everyone in Dafeng City shone brightly.
Luoshen’s will, through the Life Dao of Gu Lan, descended upon everyone participating in this Luoshen Festival in Dafeng City.
They, together, bore this will and together, felt this will.
For a moment, everyone present fell into an unprecedented concentration, engaging in this unparalleled communion with nature.
The Earth Dragon circling in the sky slowly descended upon the eight altars.
It needed no pacification; it stood quietly there and simultaneously appeared in everyone’s mind, allowing them to feel its touch closely.
Heaven and earth were silent, without a sound or trace.
Fan Wubing transcended beyond everyone and stepped onto the eight altars.
No one noticed his presence, except the Earth Dragon in front of him.
From the moment the Earth Dragon appeared, he realized it was one of the Seven Luminaries, the Earth Luminary, he was looking for.
"Solid land, carrying the hopes of life..." Fan Wubing stroked the Earth Dragon, smiling, "Thank you, for protecting this land for countless millennia."
The Earth Dragon’s huge vertical pupil reflected a stream-like glow.
As a form of will, it had no independent thought.
However, upon seeing Fan Wubing and sensing the Seven Luminaries’ will on him, the long-carried mission became incredibly fervent.
It let out a high-pitched call, shot into the sky, then plummeted back down, passing through Fan Wubing’s body, and then headed towards the Luo River hanging in the sky.
With this, the grand and unique Luoshen Festival concluded perfectly.
Without a doubt, today would be remembered by everyone present.
Because, for the first time, everyone was able to resonate with the Luoshen Festival of the Luoshen Totem.
Creating this uniqueness was the uniquely unmatched Luoshen Envoy from the very beginning.
When Gu Lan returned to her senses, the Luo River had already settled, and Taozhu Da Feng Immortal before her was brimming with excited tears, and everyone below the altar was cheering.
She looked around for Fan Wubing’s figure, but he was nowhere to be seen until she suddenly turned and saw him smiling at her where the heavenly light poured down.
