Taichu Preaches the Dao, Great Dao Merit Arrives

Looking down at the densely packed mountain slope, where all kinds of living beings sat scattered everywhere, Taichu nodded with a slight smile.

"These are the first batch of holy spirits of the Primordial Continent. Those with deep fortune and opportunity will naturally not have low cultivation in the future!"

Watching the various living beings sitting obediently together—though some had argued over seats, none had come to blows—he was quite satisfied!

As Taichu settled into place, the sermon began.

This sermon started from the Earth Immortal level up to Primordial Unity Golden Immortal. Taichu's voice rang out:

His voice was grand and melodious, resounding in the ears of every living being.

The Dao he expounded covered the origin and evolution of all things in heaven and earth, as well as the methods and realms of cultivation.

The living beings listened as if drunk or entranced, as though they had entered an entirely new world.

They felt Taichu's words, comprehended the power of the Dao, and boundless longing and yearning surged within their hearts.

Under Taichu's explanation, the living beings' understanding of the Dao deepened, and their cultivation unknowingly advanced.

Watching the many living beings below—some drunk and entranced, some scratching their heads in confusion, some calm and composed, and even a few breaking through on the spot—Taichu nodded with satisfaction!

But just then, the sound of the Dao came to an abrupt halt.

He smiled faintly and said to the multitude before him, "This sermon has lasted three thousand years. Today, it ends. Ten thousand years from now, I will give a second sermon. Return and cultivate diligently!"

As his words fell, a vast expanse of Great Dao Merit descended from the sky, covering billions of acres. Taichu bathed in the golden light of merit!

Watching the countless beings still lost in enlightenment, he vanished from the void with a single flash.

Returning to Three Immortals Island, Taichu was naturally overjoyed!

"Who would have thought that giving one sermon could yield so much Great Dao Merit!"

Indeed, this was the first sermon since the opening of the heavens, so the merit was naturally not small!

Since the Great Dao had accepted the oath Taichu had sworn, it had acknowledged him and would not be stingy!

At this point, Taichu's cultivation had reached Great Luo Golden Immortal Perfection. The next step was the Golden Immortal of the Origin, and the path Taichu intended to take was naturally to Prove Dao with Strength!

Thus, when the time came, this merit would have its wondrous uses. Moreover, it could be employed later when founding a sect or taking disciples!

Taichu collected his thoughts and gave a separate sermon to the native living beings of Three Immortals Island.

This sermon also lasted three thousand years, but it was clear that the strength of the beings on Three Immortals Island was generally far higher than that of those on the Primordial Continent!

Watching the many island beings awaken from enlightenment, Taichu said calmly:

"All of you, cultivate diligently and do not slack. As living beings of my Three Immortals Island, you must honor me as supreme and follow the rules of my Three Immortals Island!

If anyone disobeys the rules, they will be severely punished. Of course, I have also opened the formation. If any wish to leave, I will not stop them. But once you leave, you may never set foot on Three Immortals Island again, nor will you receive my protection!"

The sound of the Dao echoed, spreading across the entire Three Immortals Island!

Within the Island, all living beings prostrated themselves on the ground. A few who chose to leave knelt heavily, kowtowed three times, and then departed reluctantly!

As for those who left, Taichu naturally did not pursue the matter. Each person's Dao was different, and each pursued their own path.

After the last one left the island, the formation slowly closed. Those who remained were all loyal original residents.

"Let me wander the Primordial Continent once more. The path of cultivation cannot rely solely on seclusion and closed-door training; insight is equally important!"

With a shift of his mind, Taichu was already outside the island!

Taichu strolled across the Primordial Continent, feeling the flow of spiritual energy between heaven and earth. He passed mountains and rivers, witnessing all kinds of strange sights.

In a valley, he found a spiritual herb on the verge of withering. Unable to bear it, Taichu used his power to heal it.

The herb was overcome with gratitude and transformed into a beam of spiritual light, merging into Taichu's body.

Taichu felt a pure stream of spiritual power circulate within him, and his state of mind became even more clear.

Continuing onward, Taichu arrived before an ancient ruin.

A mysterious aura filled the ruins, and Taichu decided to explore deeper.

At the heart of the ruins, he discovered a crystal stone suffused with chaotic energy, inscribed with a profound technique.

Taichu studied it carefully and grasped its mysteries.

"This! This is the 'Chaos Scripture'!" Taichu was overjoyed. "How could the 'Chaos Scripture' be here? Could it be something left behind from the chaos when Big Brother opened the heavens?"

The "Nine Revolutions Mysterious Origin Skill" was an excellent technique for body refinement, while the "Chaos Scripture" was a supreme method for cultivating the Primordial Spirit!

Taichu could hardly believe what he had found. He fully extended his divine sense to check for anomalies and, finding none, set up a formation, deciding to go into seclusion here to comprehend this peerless technique!

In the blink of an eye, ten thousand years had passed. Taichu let out a thunderous shout—Golden Immortal of the Origin achieved!

Instantly, golden light blazed around Taichu, giving off an ineffably profound aura, with the rhythm of the Dao flowing through his entire being!

"I never thought this journey would bring such an opportunity!" Taichu murmured!

Counting on his fingers, he saw that the time for the sermon was near. Taichu collected his thoughts and headed toward Buzhou Mountain.

First, he arrived outside Pangu Hall. He always landed outside and then walked in.

Perhaps out of respect for his elder brother Pangu, Taichu never appeared abruptly inside Pangu Hall.

Watching the hall doors slowly open, Taichu stepped inside.

Looking at the twelve Ancestral Witches still cultivating seriously in the Blood Pool, Taichu did not disturb them. Instead, he silently withdrew.

"Those little ones are doing well, cultivating very earnestly. Right now, among the twelve Ancestral Witches, Di Jiang's cultivation has already reached the early stage of Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, and the rest are all about to break through to Primordial Unity Golden Immortal as well."

Arriving at the immortal mountain where he lectured on the Dao, Taichu saw that quite a few living beings had already gathered, one after another.

Several times more than last time. Clearly, because of Taichu's lectures, the overall strength of the living beings in the Primordial Wilderness had improved noticeably.

Travel time had naturally become much faster, so this time even more living beings had come.

Seeing that the time was about right, and the arriving living beings had all sat down one after another, quietly waiting to hear the Dao, Taichu spoke: "This lecture will last three thousand years, covering the path from Primordial Unity Golden Immortal to Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. You shall ponder it carefully. How much you can comprehend depends entirely on your own fortune."

As soon as his words fell, he began to lecture on the Dao.

During Taichu's lecture, auspicious vapors descended from the heavens, and the sound of the Dao echoed in waves, stretching for billions of miles.

Countless living beings were immersed in Taichu's lecture, enraptured and entranced.

Over these three thousand years, some living beings of keen talent grasped the mysteries of the path from Primordial Unity Golden Immortal to Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, and their cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds.

Other living beings also gained abundantly, developing a deeper understanding of the Great Dao.

Yet, just as the lecture ended, Taichu slowly lifted his head and looked toward the North Pole Land.

There, dust and smoke were rising from the North Pole Land...
