His voice trembled.
He had trained for ten thousand years and had never seen such a pure five-clawed golden dragon bloodline.
The power of this bloodline is the most perfect treasure in the world. If one can obtain even a small portion of it, how can one not attain the Great Dao?
The middle-aged man took a deep breath, tried hard to contain his joy, then stepped forward.
He did not show the haughty demeanor of a powerful figure, bowing deeply to David respectfully, as if speaking to a great emperor: “I am an elder of the Divine Hall, my Taoist name is Qingxuan. My greetings to you, fellow Taoists! May I ask what you should call me?”
Chen looked at him calmly, feeling the gaze of the other person who looked respectful but was actually investigating.
Those gazes, like real tentacles, sought to penetrate his body and probe the depths of his bloodline.
He did not speak, but only uttered two words: “David”.
Elder Qingxuan nodded repeatedly, his face beaming with a smile, the wrinkles on his face gathered into one, making him look kind and approachable, but in truth, he was very hypocritical.
“Brother Daoist Chen, You possess the bloodline of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, making you an unparalleled genius, one in ten thousand! Our Sacred Hall always respects bloodlines, and someone with your bloodline is no doubt an honored guest in our Sacred Hall! Please enter quickly, I will immediately inform the Hall Chief so that he can greet you personally and give you a worthy welcome!”
His enthusiasm made the people around him feel a little uncomfortable.
A few moments ago they were so haughty and arrogant, and now they became so lickt. The contrast is too great.
But no one dared to say anything. Before the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon bloodline, everything else was meaningless; strength is the only true measure of power.
David looked at him and sneered inwardly.
The same old routine repeats itself.
This applies both to the Catholic Church and the churches under it.
These supposedly benevolent holy lands, despite constantly preaching benevolence and morality, actually behind the scenes were the most pragmatic and profit-oriented people.
They don’t value you as a person, but rather the bloodline that runs through your veins.
Once you lose your usefulness, or they get what they want, they will turn against you faster than turning the page of a book.
David knew that getting the temple’s help to free Moses and her husband’s souls from the soul crystals would not be that easy.
But he remained expressionless, only nodding slightly, as if accepting this “honor”.
“Thank you for your help, Elder Qingxuan,” David said calmly, his tone neither humble nor overbearing.
Elder Qingxuan was overjoyed and immediately stepped aside to lead the way: “Brother Daoist Chen, please, please!”
While leading David towards the temple, he looked back at the crowd in the square and ordered, “Today’s exam is over. Everyone, disperse! The rest can come tomorrow!”
The monks in line looked at each other, but did not dare to say anything, and dispersed one by one.
Before leaving, they couldn’t help but look back a few more times and look at David, their eyes filled with complex emotions—envy, jealousy, and sympathy.
David followed Elder Qingxuan, passing through various palaces and halls.
Everything along the way was decorated with great luxury. The corridor railings were carved from a piece of warm jade, and the walls were decorated with various precious calligraphy and paintings. The air is filled with the gentle scent of sandalwood and spiritual energy, making people feel relaxed and happy.
The Divine Hall disciples who occasionally met Elder Qingxuan with David were all stunned, then immediately put on friendly smiles and made way for him.
