Chapter 1184 Dao Banquet: Lavish Food
1184 Dao Banquet: Lavish Food
The day of the banquet arrived, and the first to arrive was, of course, the immortals from the Myriad Emperor World. The Steward had prepared a special floating mountain for this banquet, and the designated people would lead the guests to it.
The mountain, even the banquet, looked ordinary, with countless small dining tables arranged in different sections. However, the beauty of this event was in its simplicity. The dining tables were made of Purple Sovereign Wood, an Emperor-Grade material used for refining pills and weapons.
The bowls, tea cups, and wine cups shone with an unknown luster, and that's because they were made from Dream Dust - another Emperor-Grade material known to calm the mind and ensure the best cultivation state. The scariest part is there were 100 million of these things. Even if only a small part was required to refine the table and dining utensils, it was too extravagant.
Furthermore, this was not the end. A pink tree that resembled a Sakura Tree stood towering at an inconspicuous corner of the banquet, releasing petals that enveloped the banquet. The tree's petals would temporarily purify the soul and increase comprehension.
People could not immediately fly to the top of the mountain but must walk these beautiful purple stairs to the banquet. The stairs were blessed to condense a person's luck, giving them a temporary blessing that increased comprehension.
Lastly, beautiful Dao music echoed in the background, and its effect was the same as the others-another boost to concentration and comprehension.
Feng Heng was the first to arrive with three people following him, and a disciple led him to the Emperor Area, putting at the very front facing Wang Wei. However, the three monks with him sat somewhere else.
Soon, more people arrived and were put in an area based on their paths: Dao Area, Immortal Area, Primarch Area, Soul Area, Luck Area, and Guest Area. Wang Wei allowed these people to bring three disciples from their sect to participate in this event, and the Guest Area was for them.
The sky in the distance suddenly burst open as a golden carriage descended from the sky, followed by a vision. The Steward wondered what the big deal was but soon realized it was only someone from another world community who had arrived. More foreigners arrived for the next few hours, and somehow, they all decided to make the flashiest entrance possible. These actions made the immortals of the Myriad Emperor World wonder whether they should have been flamboyant as well.
Once everyone had arrived and the Dream World was broadcasting this event, Wang Wei finally showed up, dressed in an elegant purple and gold robe. He also chose a simpler and more direct entrance - suddenly appearing at the slightly elevated table at the front as if he was always there. While all eyes were on him, he calmly sat cross-legged on a cushion, his dining table before him, facing all these people. He looked at the crowd, checking on all the people he knew.
He smiled at his mother and father, who sat at the front near the Myriad Emperor World's True Eternals like Feng Heng and Ao Shen. His father was the only non-eternal in that position, but no one said anything - just like no one said anything about Dong Lifen sitting at the front of the Luck Area. However, he did notice one complaint in the Immortal Area despite no one uttering a word and decided to address it.
'I understand, and thank you for your care, His Majesty,' Duan Ru replied. The meat could be left for his descendants, but some small part of him felt unwilling. He would rather wait until his reincarnation to eat it, but he doubted these unfilial bastards would preserve it for him. More importantly, other clans might try to attack his clan, knowing he was storing such a valuable thing.
"Hey, honey," Wang Tian whispered.
"Don't ask to share my food."
"I wouldn't," Wang Tian replied speechlessly.
"Oh, then, what is it?"
"How are we supposed to hold a banquet that compares to this?"
Yu Yan exhaled deeply after hearing his question. "I've been thinking the same thing. All I can say is we better start preparing now." All she can do to soothe her heartache is laugh at the misery of the Emperors after them. She wished she could see their stress as they tried to hold a banquet on this level and failed miserably.
"This bastard really knows how to be extravagant," Wang Tian complained. "We were lucky he only wanted a simple Dao Companion Ceremony."
"True."
Wang Wei waited for everyone to finish with their food, their breakthrough, and helping their disciples to digest their meal. Cai Song, Jin Mengyao, and Li Wenling had other people helping them. He waved his hand to summon the tea.
"This is Enlightenment Tea brewed from the Bodhi Tree with petals from the World Tree used as assistance to prolong the effect."
The people were shocked. The Bodhi Tree was known for its effect of increasing comprehension and allowing a cultivator to enter a state of epiphany. Meanwhile, every petal of the World Tree contained a world, and now, it was used as an assisting material for this tea.
This banquet was simply the definition of lavish.Follow the latest novels at novelhall.com
