"Alright! Since everyone is here, I, your Master, will first take you to pay respects to your Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother."

With a wave of Sect Master Tongtian's sleeve, all 305 Jie Sect immortals were instantly transported to the "Grand Pure Palace." At the same time, Primordial Heavenly Venerate had also brought the fifteen disciples of the Chan Sect to Taishang Laojun's location.

"Come, greet your Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother."

"Disciple greets Eldest Senior Brother! May Eldest Senior Brother's lifespan be boundless!"

"Disciple greets Second Senior Brother! May Second Senior Brother's lifespan be boundless!"

Following Sect Master Tongtian's instructions and Li Yunjing's subtle guidance, many of the Jie Sect disciples stepped forward to greet the two elders.

"All of you may rise."

Taishang Laojun gently stroked his snow-white beard and waved his right hand, lifting everyone to their feet.

"This is Xuandu. If you have free time in the future, you disciples should get to know each other better."

"This humble Taoist Xuandu greets all Senior Brothers, Senior Sisters, Junior Brothers, and Junior Sisters." Xuandu stepped forward and bowed to the Jie Sect disciples, led by Daoist Duobao.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Xuandu."

Daoist Duobao and the Five True Disciples nodded and smiled. They were all familiar with each other. As for the other newcomers to the Jie Sect, they naturally wouldn't dare to be disrespectful and returned the greeting.

"Guangchengzi, you should also come and greet your fellow disciples from the Jie Sect." Primordial Heavenly Venerate glanced at the large number of Jie Sect disciples, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes, and said indifferently.

"This humble Taoist Guangchengzi greets all Senior Brothers, Senior Sisters, Junior Brothers, and Junior Sisters!"

"This humble Taoist Chijingzi greets all Senior Brothers, Senior Sisters, Junior Brothers, and Junior Sisters!"

"This humble Taoist Yunzhongzi offers his respects!"

"This humble Taoist Old Immortal Nanji offers his respects!"

The future Twelve Golden Immortals, two Grand Unity Golden Immortals, immediately stepped out from behind Primordial Heavenly Venerate upon receiving their Master's command and bowed in unison to the five disciples of Daoist Duobao.

As for Daoist Randeng, he felt rather awkward at this moment. Primordial Heavenly Venerate had indeed not accepted him as a disciple, but instead granted him an honorary position as the Deputy Sect Master of the Chan Sect.

After the Jie Sect and Chan Sect had introduced themselves to each other, Primordial Heavenly Venerate spoke again, "Randeng, along with the Three Pure Ones, was one of the 'Three Thousand Guests' of Zixiao Palace. Today, he joins my Chan Sect and will serve as the Deputy Sect Master of the Chan Sect."

"Haha! Congratulations, Deputy Sect Master Randeng, on attaining such a high position! Disciples offer their respects!"

While the disciples of the Human Teachings and Jie Sect were still stunned, Li Yunjing laughed heartily and stepped forward to offer congratulations in the manner of greeting senior figures in the Primordial Desolation.

Only then did the others react and step forward to congratulate Daoist Randeng.

Daoist Randeng forced a smile and returned the bow, inwardly lamenting. This position of Sect Master would not be easy to hold!

After the disciples of the three sects had finished greeting each other, the Grand Pure Saint spoke, "I have discussed with your Masters, and in ten thousand years, a Dao discussion conference will be held at the Three Pure Ones Palace to assess your respective cultivation achievements. You must all cultivate diligently and comprehend the Great Dao, so as not to waste your Masters' painstaking efforts."

The Grand Pure Saint, being pure and without action, had only one disciple, Xuandu. Regardless of victory or defeat, he did not take it to heart. However, the Chan Sect and Jie Sect had the responsibility of educating all beings, and their doctrines had significant conflicts, naturally leading to inevitable subtle rivalries.

It could be said that the outcome of this Three Sects Dao Discussion Conference would not only reflect the strength of the disciples of each sect but also concern the reputation of the Saints.

Saints' Nascent Souls were entrusted to the void, merged with the Heavenly Dao, transcended the river of time, indestructible through myriad kalpas, unstained by karma, coexisting with heaven and existing with the Dao, eternally immortal.

Among Saints, reputation was paramount. Especially for the Chan Sect and Jie Sect, with their conflicting doctrines, the future Dao discussion would undoubtedly be exceptionally heated. The conflict between the two sects would begin with the Dao discussion conference!

Li Yunjing sighed inwardly, realizing that in ten thousand years, the Three Pure Ones would not be far from separating!

Returning to the "Upper Pure Palace," Sect Master Tongtian looked at his numerous disciples and said, "This agreement for the Dao discussion should have given you all considerable motivation. Ten thousand years is enough time for you to cultivate the Supreme Clarity Great Dao."

"From today onwards, I will lecture for a thousand years, imparting the Dao and resolving your doubts. Do not be negligent."

"We respectfully obey Master's teachings!"

The disciples' expressions turned serious, naturally understanding the importance of this matter. However, the four true disciples of Daoist Duobao remained composed. They had already advanced to Grand Unity Golden Immortal and had cultivated for a long time, so they naturally did not believe the Chan Sect could be their match!

Li Yunjing looked at the arrogant expressions of his four senior brothers and sisters and shook his head slightly. Do you really think you are qualified to participate in the competition?

Furthermore, the Chan Sect was not without its talents. Old Immortal Nanji and Yunzhongzi were both Immortals of virtue and fortune, blessed with immense luck and profound Dao methods. Even before they were disciples of Uncle-Master Primordial, they had already made a great name for themselves on the Primordial Desolation continent.

The sole criterion for survival in the Primordial Desolation was strength. Those who relied on empty fame were few and far between. These two were not easy opponents!

At this moment, it would be better to listen attentively to Master's lectures, improve their cultivation, and avoid embarrassing themselves in the future, thus losing the face of the Jie Sect for no reason.

Sect Master Tongtian scanned everyone and nodded slightly. Then, his expression turned solemn, and he slowly began to speak. Golden lotuses bloomed, and ethereal immortal music filled the "Upper Pure Palace," accompanied by waves of fragrance. Everyone sat upright, listening intently to the Great Dao.

"The Yellow Court has three palaces: the upper palace in the brain, the middle palace in the heart, and the lower palace in the spleen. Yellow is the color of the center, and the court is the center of the four directions, both possessing the meaning of 'center.'"

Every word, seemingly ordinary, contained the profound principles of the Great Dao.

As Sect Master Tongtian's Dao voice echoed, infinite Supreme Clarity Immortal Methods manifested in the void. Under Sect Master Tongtian's lecture, these newcomers gained a faster and deeper understanding of the Supreme Clarity Great Dao.

As time passed, a faint immortal light emanated from the three hundred newcomers, their auras becoming increasingly ethereal and transcendent, clearly indicating that the Supreme Clarity Immortal Method had been successfully initiated.

Even Li Yunjing marveled. His Master spoke so casually, but lecturing was his ultimate skill. He had even imparted the Yellow Court Scripture and directly manifested myriad techniques to enhance his disciples' combat prowess.

This clearly showed his intention to win honor for the Jie Sect in the Dao discussion conference ten thousand years later!

When the thousand-year period of lecturing concluded, Sect Master Tongtian immediately stopped speaking. After the disciples awoke from their immersion in the Great Dao, Sect Master Tongtian said again, "You may all disperse. The arrangements for your residences will be handled by Daoist Duobao, Jin Ling, Wudang, Guiling, Chaos Child, and Winged Immortal."

"Yes! Disciples take our leave!"

Exiting the "Upper Pure Palace," Daoist Duobao, as the Eldest Senior Brother, enthusiastically arranged the living quarters for his junior brothers and sisters within the "Upper Pure Palace." With so many people on Mount Kunlun now, it was impossible for them to occupy a corner of Mount Kunlun like Li Yunjing had, establishing his "Chaos Palace."

"Zhao Gongming, Yunxiao, Bixiao, Qiongxiao, and Fairy Caiyun, you will all stay in my 'Chaos Palace'! My residence is vast, with nine layers of palaces inside. Each of you can choose one." Looking at these junior brothers and sisters, Li Yunjing said with a smile and enthusiasm.
