“Ascend the altar?”

Lin Rui recalled the information about the ‘Radiant Holy Altar’ at the Light God Sect’s Main Temple in his mind.

Lin Rui could also view pictures of the ‘Radiant Holy Altar’ in the Security Bureau’s intelligence database.

This altar was located on the plaza behind the Great Ming Hall, also crafted by the Seventh Generation Sect Leader as a place to pay tribute to the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire.’

It is said that this altar gathers the faith of twenty-seven million believers in their pursuit of light, forming into the ever-burning Divine Flame of Light, like the sun that illuminates and protects the entire Main Temple, and is the source of power for the ‘Sacred Light Grand Array’ within the Main Temple.

It is also the origin of the Divine Fire used by all priests of the Light God Sect.

The so-called Divine Fire is actually the many offspring split from the Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire.

According to the analysis of the Security Bureau’s magic experts, the ‘Radiant Holy Altar’ is a relay transformation device established between the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’ and the ‘twenty-seven million believers.’

The Radiant Holy Altar can convert the power of the believers’ faith into energy for the Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire to use.

It also guides the power of the Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire down, spawning numerous offspring to be used by the many priests of the Light God Sect.

Previously in Silver Moon County, Wangcheng County, the High Priest Li Qiufeng suppressed the Purple Brilliance Primordial Crystal Vein beneath the county town with a single offspring of the Divine Fire she had received.

The Radiant Holy Altar is also extremely dangerous; it is said that an ordinary person would burn to ash with just a slight touch.

Even the former Bright Sage Master Yin Qianqiu would try his best to avoid contact with the Radiant Holy Altar unless absolutely necessary.

The Invincible Dharma King had given him advice before entering the Main Temple.

The Invincible had said that his current cultivation level is limited and he has not yet gained control over the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire,’ so he will definitely not be able to suppress it. Therefore, when the time comes to ascend the altar, he should remain levitating in the air the entire time, not stepping solidly on the ground nor sitting firmly. He could just pretend and make do with a false sitting.

Prior Sect Hierarchs all did the same at the beginning of their succession.

So does this Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy think he has the capability to safely sit on the altar?

Lin Rui smiled faintly: “I’ll try it later.”

He would certainly act within his abilities and won’t just listen to whatever the Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy says.

After listening to this, Shancai Divine Envoy Zhao Chongling’s expression became solemn.

To try it would be courting death! This new Sect Hierarch seems to be seeking his own demise.

Zhao Chongling even subconsciously wanted to speak out and dissuade him.

He aimed to prevent the Invincible Dharma King from ascending the throne to spare the Light God Sect from an all-out war, but he definitely did not want to see the Light God Sect collapse just like that.

The Bright Sage Master Gong Bonan, without thinking, said: “Holy Master, you must not! The ‘Radiant Holy Altar’ gathers the will of all believers of the Light God Sect, only one with the cultivation of the Nine Realms Emperor and who has taken control of the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’ can safely sit upon the altar.”

In fact, it’s more than that; the former Yin Qianqiu could not sit there until his death.

Therefore, Gong Bonan’s complexion was extremely grave. How could the Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy make such outrageous suggestions to tempt the Sect Hierarch at this time?

The Divine Sect is already chaotic enough; if there is another change of Sect Hierarch after this, it’s unpredictable what the situation would become!

Wan Lei, the Lord of Thunder, also looked coldly at the Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy, his face grim: “Sect Hierarch, this woman is not only ignorant and fearless, but also presumptuous. Please do not heed her comments. As the master of the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire,’ you will eventually be able to sit on the altar, but not now.”

Under the gaze of everyone, the Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy silently bowed her head, thinking you will all soon realize who is the true Master of Light!

—He is the Bright Sage Master recognized by the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire,’ not trash like Yin Qianqiu.

Lin Rui responded with a friendly and gentle smile to Wan Lei and Gong Bonan: “Rest assured, both of you, this king is well aware of his limits.”

According to the information, these two individuals in front of him are considered more concerned with the overall situation within the Divine Sect and will be his important supporters and pillars in the future.

While Wan Lei and Gong Bonan may not approve of him as a person, they will do everything in their power to maintain the status and authority of the Bright Sage Master.

At this moment, the door of the hall reverberated with a deep bell ring; this was the twelfth bell, signifying the official start of the Light Grand Assembly.

At this point, twenty-four High Priests of the Seventh Realm, wearing red robes, carried an enormous palanquin, cast from gold and silver, to his presence.

All the high-level priests in the hall, including the Three Pillars, Five Envoys, and Seven Kings, bowed to the ground in reverence.

“Please Bright Sage Master ascend!”

Lin Rui rose as instructed and entered upon the palanquin.

At this time, the entire hall was filled with the sounds of chanting.

“The Holy Thunder shines brightly, the Holy Light glows resplendently, pity us mortals, full of distress; the world is full of hardships, the demon dust taints, a myriad of calamities and numerous sicknesses, growing ever more severe; thus living brings no joy, and dying brings no suffering—”

The voices of tens of thousands reciting together within the Light Main Altar joined as one, resounding like a great bell that stirs the heart, shaking heaven and earth.

Shortly after, the palanquin under Lin Rui’s feet, guarded and escorted by numerous high-level priests, arrived at the marble plaza behind the Main Temple, known as ‘Little Paradise of Light.’

Lin Rui saw that tens of thousands of priests from the Light God Sect had gathered there according to their ranks, either kneeling or seated in meditation.

Lin Rui also caught sight of the ‘Radiant Holy Altar’ at the center of the plaza.

Just as Lin Rui had seen in those pictures, it was shaped like a pyramid, reaching a height of a hundred zhang, its entire body white as jade.

Lin Rui also saw atop the pyramid’s apex a holy white flame jumping like a lotus flower; concentrating further, he could discern faint streaks of thunder sparkling within the lotus-shaped holy white flame.

Lin Rui, looking at these two holy objects of the Light God Sect, his pupils flashed with a strange luster.

He understood why the Bright Sage Master, Gong Bonan, said that only a Nine Realms Emperor could sit comfortably atop the altar.

Because this ‘Radiant Holy Altar’ was very similar to the ‘Heavenly Curtain’ Lin Rui resonated with when he ascended to the Sixth Realm.

Or perhaps, this ‘Radiant Holy Altar’ was another form of the ‘Heavenly Curtain’?

However, there were also differences; the Divine Thought power within the Radiant Holy Altar was extremely singular, extremely pure, and not chaotic and filthy like the mire within the Heavenly Curtain.

At this moment, Lin Rui sensed that his Abyss Source Core, Abyss Source Material, along with the Pure Method, and his gradually Abyss-transformed soul, were all resonating at a distance with this ‘Radiant Holy Altar,’ merging their qi and pulses.

“This is——”

A look of astonishment first appeared in Lin Rui’s eyes, his heart thinking that this Seventh Generation Sect Leader was indeed remarkable, to be able to create such a thing!

The ‘Radiant Holy Altar’ before him was clearly a creation of the Pure Method, as well as an Abyss Divine Artifact rooted in the Pure Method!

Therefore, he was now the undisputed master of this Divine Artifact!

Lin Rui’s heart suddenly pulsated with excitement; he had not only found a method to further heal Lin Xi and Lin Yi sisters but also possibly a pathway to swiftly ascend to the Seventh Realm.

The mortality rate for King Ming is quite high; six have died in the past five hundred years, but there are also benefits—

Amidst Lin Rui’s astonishment, the sedan chair he was on had already been delivered to the steps on the north side of the altar.

The Bright Sage Master, Gong Bonan, performed a sectarian salute by the sedan chair: “Please, King Ming, ascend the altar!”

A strong look of worry emerged in his eyes at that moment.

Gong Bonan was very concerned that this King Ming had truly heeded the words of the Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy and naively attempted to take the seat on the Radiant Holy Altar.

But at this moment, under the gaze of all, Gong Bonan was unable to remind him with words.

Upon hearing this, Lin Rui gave a slight nod, then stepped onto the stairs.

This one step caused the pupils of all present Three Pillars, Five Envoys, and Seven Kings to contract.

Shancai Divine Envoy Zhao Chongling immediately turned his head, angrily glaring at Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy; this foolish woman had messed everything up!

The Invincible Dharma King clenched her fists.

She had already prepared to use her Abyss Power to suppress this ‘Radiant Holy Altar.’

Even if it was the Holy Altar of the Light God Sect, even if it was the faith of twenty-seven billion believers, it must bow before her power!

But in the next moment, including the Invincible herself, everyone was slightly stunned, their expressions one of amazement.

Simply because the instant Lin Rui set foot on the altar’s stairs, not only was he not burned by the Divine Fire of Light within the altar, but the surrounding radiance also dramatically increased.

Suddenly, the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’ above the altar released beams of brilliant and splendid light, dazzling streaks of thunder radiating from atop the altar in all directions, causing ‘Small Heaven of Light,’ the white marble plaza, to become brighter still.

At this moment, the plaza also abruptly thundered, all the Priests sitting cross-legged turned towards the sedan chair, towards Lin Rui, while all the Priests, great and small, kneeling on the ground, raised their heads, wishing to witness the scene, causing the chanting to become faint.

Similar thoughts flashed through their minds.

“This~ King Ming has solidified the Radiant Holy Altar?”

“Is that the new King Ming? So splendidly radiant!”

“Brilliant light shines forth, touches the Divine Fire without harm! This is the true Master of Light.”

“That’s the intent fire of twenty-seven billion believers! Truly the one chosen by Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire.”

“In the Light Conference thirteen years ago, there was no such scene! Now I see, this King Ming is the one truly approved by the Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire!”

“Today, my Light God Sect welcomes the true Master!”

Some of the priests, whose faith was devout, even couldn’t help trembling all over, their emotions too excited to contain themselves.

Then, Lin Rui continued to ascend, and with every stair he climbed, the power of the light around him strengthened, as if the entire power of light within the Radiant Holy Altar was joyously welcoming him in submission.

Gradually, the blazing white brilliance began to cast the interior and exterior of the Main Temple like a pure white sacred land!

Shancai Divine Envoy Zhao Chongling suddenly turned around, staring fixedly at Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy.

He wondered about the origins of this new King Ming. Why was Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy so certain that King Ming could firmly hold the Dharma Platform?

The Invincible Dharma King also glanced thoughtfully at Heavenly Fragrance, realizing that her move to protect ‘Lin Hao’ in obtaining the Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire wasn’t merely because he was the Third Saint Heir of the Divine Sect and had the Heart of Light.

Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy, however, had a solemn and respectful demeanor, reciting the “King Ming Purity Sutra” along with the surrounding priests with utmost devotion.
