This is far more profound than Hongjun's method of Severing Three Corpses!
Of course, they also understood that becoming a Saint was no easy feat.
Merely obtaining a method did not guarantee one could achieve the Hunyuan realm.
If that were the case, since the creation of heaven and earth until now, including the Master, there would not be only eight Saints!
It could be seen that becoming a Saint required a combination of method, aptitude, and resources.
Now, the method was already obtained.
In terms of aptitude, they were all innate divinities.
In terms of resources, where were the three of them located?
Wuji Heaven!
Their Master, known as the greatest spendthrift in the Primordial World!
He dared to transform Merit into rain that fell for three consecutive days, and he possessed countless Primordial Violet Qi!
With these resources, becoming a Saint might no longer be out of reach!
And as the Master's trusted confidants, the three of them would surely have a head start!
Upon thinking this, the three trembled with excitement.
They secretly discussed how they should greet the Master enthusiastically later!
At this moment, Lu Changqing's words spread throughout the Primordial World, shaking all living beings!
The Demon Clan Heavenly Court erupted with soaring demonic energy.
Di Jun and Tai Yi's faces turned red.
With this method to become a Saint, we too have hope of achieving it!
At that time, we can legitimately rule the Heavenly Court without any restrictions!
Fu Xi also exclaimed excitedly: We should first go to the outskirts of Wuji Heaven to wait. We must not lose our manners!
Good, let's depart immediately!
Di Jun nodded heavily.
With a command, the massive Demon Clan Heavenly Court rumbled into motion!
In an instant, the thirty-three heavens revealed magnificent phenomena!
The three hundred and sixty Zhou Tian stars seemed to sway precariously, causing immense upheaval!
Meanwhile, below Buzhou Mountain.
Hearing Lu Changqing's words, the Witch Clan also erupted!
The eyes of the Ancestral Witches burned with fervent light.
In the past, becoming a Saint was something the Witch Clan had no connection to.
But now, the Witch Clan had developed Primordial Spirits.
This meant that becoming a Saint was no longer distant for them.
This sermon must not be missed.
Soon, the Witch Clan army set off, raising a great dust storm!
Furthermore, outside the Witch and Demon clans, across the vast Primordial World, other ancient great powers were also filled with unbearable excitement.
Inside Wuzhuang Temple...
Zhen Yuanzi suddenly stood up, his gaze meeting Hong Yun's.
Saint Changqing is holding a sermon, this is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity!
Without further words, the two had already ridden auspicious clouds straight towards Wuji Heaven.
At the same time--
Old Ancestor Minghe of the Sea of Blood, Queen Mother of the West of Kunlun, and many other reclusive powerhouses revealed themselves one after another.
Dozens of earth-shattering pressures shot straight into the sky, all converging towards Wuji Heaven.
Even those great powers who had been in seclusion and cultivating since ancient times, detached from worldly affairs, could no longer restrain themselves and broke out of their retreats.
The Calamity could not shake them, but the news of Lu Changqing's sermon caused these hermits to appear en masse.
High above the Nine Heavens, the Six Saints, witnessing Lu Changqing's words stir the winds and clouds of the Primordial World, could not help but feel a myriad of emotions.
Taiqing praised sincerely: Saint Changqing's heart embraces all living beings, his magnanimity is vast, I am truly ashamed in comparison.
Yuanshi, Tongtian, Jieyin, Zhunti, and Nuwa, along with the other Saints, all agreed deeply.
They were willing to publicly share the method to become a Saint? Such magnanimity was something they admitted they couldn't achieve.
If they had obtained this method, they would have most likely only passed it down to their disciples, not openly announced it to the world.
Thinking of this, all the Saints felt ashamed.
The Six Saints then descended from the clouds and arrived before Lu Changqing in Wuji Heaven.
Seeing the Six Saints arrive together, Lu Changqing smiled broadly. Before his grand plan was realized, the Six Saints were still important contributors to consuming Merit. Since only they could create Great Thousand Worlds, he naturally treated them with special consideration.
This friendly attitude only made the Six Saints feel even more ashamed.
Having been Saints for so long, they had grown accustomed to being aloof and had forgotten that all beings were seekers of the Dao. The so-called Saint positions were insignificant before the Great Dao.
Amidst their emotions, their admiration grew.
The Six Saints put aside their airs and spoke in unison:
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Changqing, on achieving Hunyuan."
"Fellow Daoist's heart is as vast as the sea, embracing heaven and earth, making us ashamed."
Even Taiqing addressed him as such.
Lu Changqing was slightly taken aback, not understanding why.
Taiqing continued, "On the day Fellow Daoist achieved Dao, three days of golden rain of Merit descended from heaven. Now you are spreading the teachings to the world, benefiting all living beings. We truly cannot compare."
Lu Changqing finally understood and waved his hand, saying, "It's just that I wanted to consume more Merit. You all worry too much."
How could the Six Saints believe him? Merit was incredibly precious; who would ever think they had too much? Only a fool would act this way solely for the sake of squandering it.
But could Lu Changqing be a fool? If he were foolish, wouldn't the Six Saints also be fools?
This must be Fellow Daoist Changqing's modesty!
Seeing the expressions in the Six Saints' eyes, Lu Changqing knew they were overthinking again.
Since explaining was useless, he decided to say no more.
Taiqing then said, "Since Fellow Daoist has already achieved Dao, why not take advantage of this hundred-year period of preaching to discuss the Dao with us?"
Lu Changqing pondered for a moment. The Shore Flower had not yet revived, and the Primordial Violet Qi could not be ripened. There were no other methods to consume Merit. Discussing the Dao with the Six Saints could pass the time, so he readily agreed.
The Seven Saints then sat cross-legged in the void and began to expound on the Great Dao.
However, as their discussion deepened, the Six Saints became increasingly astonished.
They had intended to take this opportunity to guide Lu Changqing a little and build good karma, but unexpectedly, he understood the profound truths of the Three Thousand Laws. No matter which law was discussed, he could speak eloquently, even turning around to enlighten the Saints.
This was simply unbelievable!
How had he managed this?
A tempest of shock surged through the hearts of the Six Saints.
Before, they had only thought Lu Changqing was wealthy and powerful.
Now, they finally understood that this person truly possessed world-shattering abilities!
Had he really only recently achieved Dao?
In the blink of an eye, a hundred years passed.
Outside Wuji Heaven, the place was already bustling with noise.
Over the past century, various factions had arrived successively.
The first to appear were the Witch and Demon Clans.
As the two great overlords of the Primordial World today, their entourage was naturally extraordinary!
On the Demon Clan's side, hundreds of millions of demon soldiers blotted out the sun, creating a massive spectacle.
Those who didn't know might have thought the Demon Clan was launching a full-scale invasion.
In reality, they were all there to listen to the Dao.
The Witch Clan was not to be outdone, arriving with their entire clan, their aura immense, their battle intent sweeping across millions of miles of the Primordial World!
After arriving outside Wuji Heaven, the two clans tacitly occupied their respective areas, not disturbing each other.
Both sides understood that in the face of an opportunity to become a Saint, past grievances were not worth mentioning.
Following them, the great powers of the Primordial World arrived one after another.
Zhen Yuanzi, Hong Yun, Queen Mother of the West, Old Ancestor Minghe, and others, all renowned figures.
Witnessing the grand scene outside Wuji Heaven, Zhen Yuanzi couldn't help but sigh:
"This is an unprecedented grand event in the Primordial World."
"Even when the Dao Ancestor preached back then, the scene was not much different."
Zhen Yuanzi suddenly exclaimed.
"Could that be Old Ancestor Illusionary Moon, who was famous during the Dragon-Phoenix Calamity? I didn't expect even him to come."
And Fellow Daoist Qinglian, also a supreme expert who attained the Dao in ancient times."
"They have all gathered here."
Countless great powers were overcome with emotion.
The last to arrive were the innumerable beings of the Primordial World.
Their cultivation levels varied, and their numbers were as countless as the sands of the Ganges, a vast expanse that stretched as far as the eye could see!
When had the Primordial World ever seen such a spectacle?
Billions of beings gathered, a magnificent and awe-inspiring scene!
Truly, a single call brought forth a hundred responses. Only Wuji Heaven possessed such influence!
Even the ** of the major Saint sects have arrived in droves.
Just as all beings marveled, an unparalleled aura suddenly descended.
All beings looked up in unison and saw—
A young man of extraordinary demeanor, like an exiled immortal, with a handsome appearance, strode through the air, each step blooming a lotus!
Celestial auspicious clouds descended upon his head, and vast purple qi stretched for a million miles.
Three Thousand Laws intertwined and evolved around him, the sounds of the Great Dao echoing endlessly. Merely hearing it caused myriad phenomena to appear in the void, and billions of auspicious lights to descend!
The most striking sight was the nine hundred and ninety-nine layers of Merit Golden Wheels behind him, and the endless Golden Light of Merit, illuminating all heavens and myriad realms!
It was like a brilliant, radiant sun!
There was no need to elaborate; one who possessed such an aura could only be the Saint Changqing, whose merit was inexhaustible!
"We pay our respects to Saint Changqing!"
"We pay our respects to Saint Changqing!"
At this moment, all beings in the Primordial World knelt in unison, respectfully welcoming the arrival of Lu Changqing.
Lu Changqing merely waved his hand gently.
Without further ado, he got straight to the point.
"Your intentions for coming here, I understand clearly."
"Next, I will directly impart the method of achieving Sainthood. Listen carefully."
"He's so direct and efficient?"
All beings were momentarily stunned, then snapped back to reality.
"There really is a method to achieve Sainthood!"
Instantly, the crowd became excited, craning their necks in anticipation!
"The method I will impart today is called the Hunyuan Dao Scripture."
"To cultivate this scripture, one only needs to cultivate their own laws to the extreme, and then they can achieve Sainthood through the laws, attaining the Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal fruit status."
As Lu Changqing's voice fell, the beings of the Primordial World became instantly fervent.
"As expected of the supreme method that directly leads to Hunyuan, it can indeed borrow the power of laws to achieve the Dao and become a Saint. It is truly profound and unparalleled!"
A burning light ignited in the eyes of all beings, and they gazed intently at Lu Changqing, afraid of missing even a single word.
Lu Changqing wasted no more time and immediately began his sermon.
"The path of immortality emphasizes purity, inaction, and transcending the physical form. However, even the mortal world's ** requires striking a thousand-jun giant bell."
"Let alone the ethereal principles of gods and immortals, the profound truths of morality. How can the limitations of mortal eyes and ears comprehend the mysteries within?"
"The Great Dao manifests through laws. The Three Thousand Laws can all lead to Sainthood."
As he spoke eloquently, myriad phenomena immediately appeared between heaven and earth.
Vast purple qi surged from the east, stretching for a million miles without cease.
At this moment, all beings felt as if they were drinking nectar amidst the sounds of the Dao.
Some were overcome with excitement, while others were so immersed in the Dao rhythm that they could not extricate themselves.
Taiqing, Yuanshi, Tongtian, and the other Six Saints were also listening.
They had previously debated with Lu Changqing in Wuji Heaven and already knew that not only did he possess immeasurable merit, but his comprehension of laws was also extraordinary.
Upon hearing the profound method for achieving Sainthood, the Six Saints were all shaken.
"This method is exquisitely crafted, clearly surpassing the Dao Ancestor's method of Severing Three Corpses!"
"Perhaps it can truly lead one onto the path of achieving Sainthood through laws!"
Taiqing could not help but sigh, his normally calm Dao heart rippling.
"I originally thought the Severing Three Corpses method created by the Dao Ancestor was the ultimate. I never expected Fellow Daoist Changqing to surpass it, having derived a path to achieve the Dao through laws."
"Fellow Daoist Changqing's talent is truly unparalleled in history!"
Yuanshi also praised him sincerely.
If his disciples heard this, they would surely be astonished—when had their usually arrogant Master ever praised anyone so highly, aside from a select few like Taiqing and Hongjun?
Tongtian, Jieyin, Zhunti, and Nuwa, the Saints, all nodded in agreement.
Lu Changqing's talent had already won their sincere admiration.
The Six Saints sighed inwardly, even feeling a touch of envy for the beings of the Primordial World—they only regretted achieving enlightenment too early, missing the chance to cultivate this method.
Just as all beings were immersed in the Dao's resonance, Hongjun, in the chaos beyond the heavens, wore a grim expression.
His pupils contracted sharply, disbelief etched on his face.
Lu Changqing could actually deduce such a profound method for achieving sainthood... How had he done it? Could he truly be a reincarnation of a Chaos Demon God? No, even a reincarnated Demon God might not possess such capability!
As a being formed from the remnant soul of a Chaos Demon God, Hongjun knew firsthand the difficulty of creating a new Dao.
At this moment, a great alarm blared in his heart—Lu Changqing had become a serious threat.
Lu Changqing was unaware of Hongjun's thoughts.
He was focused on his sermon.
Whether Hongjun had held back any secrets when teaching the Severing Three Corpses method back then, Lu Changqing did not know; however, he imparted this Hunyuan Dao method with his whole heart.
The listeners before him were all crucial to his grand plan. If they couldn't achieve sainthood, how could his Merit be fully dispersed? He even hoped they would become Saints immediately, though he knew this was merely a wishful thought.
Obtaining the method to achieve Dao merely pointed the way forward; whether one could truly attain Hunyuan still depended on individual aptitude and opportunity.
Lu Changqing had already made preparations for this—whether it was the Demon Emperor, the Ancestral Witches, or other ancient great powers present, they were all top-tier innate divine beings, possessing at least the foundation to achieve Dao.
As for opportunity, he had dozens of Primordial Violet Qi prepared, waiting for the opportune moment.
In the span of a thought, the thousand-year sermon drew to a close.
"This sermon ends here."
Lu Changqing rose, the phenomena surrounding him gradually fading, leaving only divine light swirling around him as he stood tall and majestic.
Below, billions of living beings slowly awoke, having gained much and their faces beaming with joy. They prostrated themselves in thanks:
"Thank you, Saint Changqing, for the great grace of imparting the Dao!"
The sound waves surged like a tide, shaking the heavens and earth.
It was no wonder they were so excited—such an opportunity was truly rare.
Zhen Yuanzi, Queen Mother of the West, Old Ancestor Minghe, Demon Emperors Di Jun and Tai Yi, Fu Xi, and the Twelve Ancestral Witches... All the great powers present were filled with emotion after the sermon.
They clearly perceived that this method was even more profound than the Dao of Severing Three Corpses.
Through this method, they truly saw hope for achieving sainthood.
"Hahaha, our Demon Clan will finally have Saints emerge!"
Tai Yi and Di Jun laughed heartily.
The Witch Clan was equally elated, and the Twelve Ancestral Witches had also glimpsed the path forward.
This signified that they had crossed an insurmountable chasm.
They had truly grasped the opportunity to achieve Dao!
Although they knew the road ahead would inevitably be fraught with thorns.
At least, the light of hope had now appeared.
No longer like in the past, where becoming a Saint was merely a mirage to them.
At this moment.
