When Fairy Yunxiao saw Lin Xuan again, she could not help widening her beautiful eyes as she scrutinized him.
He wore a dark Daoist robe, his expression calm.
An incomparably profound Dao rhythm flowed around him.
As she focused her senses, she vaguely felt a loosening and newfound insight regarding her own Great Dao.
Yunxiao understood immediately.
Senior Disciple Brother Lin Xuan had truly attained sainthood!
She immediately took a deep breath, then rose and spoke:
"Yunxiao respectfully congratulates Sect Leader Senior Disciple Brother on attaining sainthood. May you enjoy endless immortal blessings and boundless longevity as a sage!"
After speaking, Yunxiao took out the jade box she had kept in her sleeve all this time. It contained the twenty-four Sea-Calming Divine Pearls, and she presented it to Lin Xuan.
"This is my elder brother Zhao Gongming's personal treasure, the twenty-four Sea-Calming Divine Pearls. I hereby offer them to Senior Disciple Brother. I hope Senior Disciple Brother can lead us disciples of the Interception Sect to revive our sect in the Primordial World!"
The other Interception Sect disciples present were overwhelmed with excitement when they heard Yunxiao's words.
Sect Leader Senior Disciple Brother had truly attained sainthood!
And with Sect Master Tongtian, who had gone to the Zixiao Palace beyond the heavens, didn't that mean the Interception Sect now had two sages in one lineage?
Aside from the impoverished Two Sages of the West, what other Dao Lineage in the Primordial World could receive such an honor?
Moreover, Sect Leader Senior Disciple Brother had been able to attain sainthood.
Didn't that indirectly prove that the Shangqing Immortal Method they cultivated had its own extraordinary merits?
After all, aside from Dao Ancestor Hongjun, the disciples of the other sages' Dao Lineages had never produced a disciple at the sage level.
Once they realized this,
all the Interception Sect disciples present respectfully performed a Daoist salute toward Lin Xuan and said in unison:
"Disciples respectfully congratulate Sect Leader Senior Disciple Brother on attaining sainthood. May you enjoy endless immortal blessings and boundless longevity as a sage!"
Lin Xuan looked at Fairy Yunxiao, who was bowing as she presented her treasure, and at the reverent Interception Sect disciples. A faint smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
Then, with a thought, he accepted the twenty-four Sea-Calming Divine Pearls Yunxiao had given him.
In fact, Lin Xuan had always known exactly how Yunxiao felt about him.
It was simply that the time was not yet right.
Afterward, he calmly swept his gaze across the Interception Sect disciples in the hall, then looked at the countless living beings gathered around Biyou Palace.
With a wave of his sleeve, he said calmly:
"You may all dispense with the ceremony."
As Lin Xuan waved his sleeve, he withdrew all the formations and restrictions within Biyou Palace.
This allowed the living beings on Golden Ao Island who aspired to seek the Dao to have the chance to hear the Great Dao.
After all, ever since Tongtian, a special ethos had prevailed throughout the Interception Sect.
No one was excluded from education.
Whether ants or ordinary mortals, all could come and listen to my Great Dao!
As for how much they could comprehend, that would depend on their individual comprehension.
This was also why Sect Master Tongtian had so many outstanding disciples.
Compared to Sect Master Tongtian, who opened the doors of convenience, the miserly Primordial Heavenly Venerate seemed extremely stingy.
This was Lin Xuan's first lecture after attaining sainthood, so naturally he was not stingy about imparting the Dao to all living beings.
When the living beings gathered around Biyou Palace saw what Lin Xuan had done, they were naturally filled with boundless joy.
They then kowtowed repeatedly toward Lin Xuan, thanking him for granting them this opportunity and allowing them to hear the Dao.
When the many Interception Sect disciples saw this scene, they once again performed a Daoist salute toward Lin Xuan and said:
"Sect Leader Senior Disciple Brother is merciful!"
Lin Xuan did not react much to this. He merely lightly tapped the Jade Chime beside him, indicating that the lecture had officially begun!
At once, a celebratory cloud filled with the profound mysteries of the Great Dao rose behind Lin Xuan's head.
Fragments of Great Dao Heavenly Sound rang out from the unseen depths.
They spread throughout Golden Ao Island.
The Interception Sect disciples and the countless living beings on the island all instantly fell into an incomparably profound state when they heard it.
Some wore smiles, seemingly having gained insight. Some scratched their ears and cheeks, dejected at having gained nothing. There were even some who finally heard the Great Dao and burst into loud sobs.
The unseen Heavenly Dao seemed to sense something as well.
Endless Heaven Flowers condensed in the void and descended upon Golden Ao Island.
Ling Quan surged forth on Golden Ao Island, and golden lotuses spread everywhere its waters flowed.
Countless auspicious phenomena appeared at this moment.
All the Interception Sect disciples listening to the Dao were astonished to discover that
the Great Daos Sect Leader Senior Disciple Brother Lin Xuan was expounding actually encompassed countless paths.
Every one of them could gain insight from those Great Dao Heavenly Sounds. They could even use them to draw parallels and gain further understanding.
Lin Xuan, who was lecturing on the Dao, saw the expressions of his junior brothers and sisters, and a satisfied look appeared on his face.
He discovered that he could obtain additional feedback from the insights of his junior brothers and sisters.
This deepened his comprehension of the Three Thousand Great Daos.
Although the Dao insights fed back by each junior brother and sister were not substantial, the combined feedback from so many Interception Sect disciples was considerable.
Lin Xuan immediately lowered his eyes and activated the Law of Time Great Dao seed within his body.
The power of the Law of Time instantly enveloped the entire Golden Ao Island, accelerating the passage of time.
With Lin Xuan's current comprehension of the Great Dao of Time, he could accelerate time to the extent of one day equaling ten years.
But one must not forget that his fundamental Great Dao was the Great Dao of Strength.
Lin Xuan immediately infused his Law of Strength Great Dao into the Law of Time Great Dao seed.
Tenfold amplification!
In an instant, the passage of time on Golden Ao Island reached the terrifying rate of one day equaling a hundred years!
