The Seed Life Banquet began at dusk. Each Seed Life Banquet was held on a twilight after the Autumn Equinox but before the Frost Descent. This was a highly classic metaphor. On this day, farmers harvested crops, selected seeds, and then waited for the following year.
After a season of dormancy, the seeds would sprout. Ten years later, at the next Seed Life Banquet, theories and problems termed "Great Dao Seeds" would grow into new branches on the Immortal Dao Technology Tree, and their discoverers would become new Primordial Spirit Cultivators. Thus, for Tianling Ridge, this should have been a festival that occurred once every decade.
Well, it should have been.
