Benefits: 380,000 Years of Daoxing-If Senior Disciple Brother's Preaching Was This Fierce, How Incredible Would the Teacher's Be?

Serene Peak.

Immortal Light shone brilliantly, and Dao Resonance drifted through the air.

A massive willow tree emitted a crystalline green glow, its branches swaying in the wind.

Beneath the tree.

A hundred people sat in the open space.

They listened intently as the young man before them preached the Dao.

As the Youth in Black preached, heavenly flowers rained down and golden lotuses sprang from the earth. An incomparably profound, ethereal aura of the Great Dao surged around him.

As he preached.

His voice rang like a Great Bell, shaking the Nine Heavens and ten lands.

Immortal Light radiated from his body.

Phantom images of the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws flickered around him. Behind his head, something like a divine wheel manifested, and within it, countless worlds seemed to tremble and hum, drawing down a precious radiance from heaven and earth.

Every word he spoke was like the Heavenly Rules and earthly principles. His words became law, and a single casual character could cause Laws to emerge.

His teachings resonated with heaven and earth, bringing down boundless auspicious signs.

With such a sight.

If it were said that no great cultivator was preaching the Dao.

Great Peng Bird would never have believed it!!

Simply by entering the dojo.

His restless state of mind rapidly calmed.

His spiritual platform became clear.

Every ripple in his heart subsided, and he swiftly entered meditation. There was even a chance of entering the state of Unity of Heaven and Man!!

This was the response of heaven and earth brought about by a great cultivator's understanding of the Great Dao Laws.

It allowed everyone within the dojo to better comprehend and integrate the Dao.

Just as when a saint preached, heavenly flowers rained down and golden lotuses sprang from the earth. Boundless auspicious light, holy radiance, and Great Dao Spiritual Charm descended, rapidly improving the listeners' comprehension, state of mind, and understanding of the Dao, while granting intelligence to all things in heaven and earth. It possessed all manner of miraculous effects!

"But even ordinary Daluo of the Phoenix Clan couldn't achieve this. Was Master really this powerful? Could he actually possess such methods?"

Great Peng Bird was deeply shaken.

After hearing only a few sentences, he already felt as though he had grasped the essence, as if a fog had lifted from his mind.

Though Qingyuan was currently only discussing the Celestial Immortal Path.

He dissected and analyzed it at a deeper level, granting Great Peng Bird a greater understanding of Celestial Immortals.

"A Celestial Immortal elevates oneself, becomes unique throughout eternity, gains the recognition of heaven and earth, and can draw upon the power of heaven and earth..."

Great Peng Bird took a deep breath.

Merely following along and silently reciting a few lines caused his cultivation realm to loosen.

This was Master's extraordinary skill!!

Without a sound, he blended into the very back of the crowd and sat cross-legged to listen.

All the disciples present were utterly engrossed.

Even Wuzhiqi, the most impatient among them, failed to notice that Great Peng Bird had returned. Everyone was wholly focused on listening to the Great Dao.

Qingyuan merely glanced at Great Peng Bird without leaving a trace.

Then he withdrew his gaze.

And continued preaching the Dao.

Qingyuan did not restrict who could attend his preaching.

Thus, Jie Sect Disciples familiar with Serene Peak dared to come and listen.

Time passed swiftly.

Within Serene Peak, the Great River flowed eastward. Idle clouds, river shadows, willow branches, and wind drifted leisurely on. Spring passed, autumn came, and summer returned time after time...

In the blink of an eye, several hundred years slipped away like sand through one's fingers.

Over these past centuries.

The immense Dao Resonance and brilliant Immortal Light of Serene Peak drew the attention of many Jie Sect Disciples, who all speculated about what was happening within.

Yet most disciples did not dare approach.

They feared angering the unrivaled First Disciple of Intercepting Sect.

Only those bold beyond measure and simple of mind dared enter the dojo to listen to the Dao, obtaining a stroke of fortune.

Unfortunately.

The vast Interception Sect had nearly eight thousand members.

More than half had witnessed the wondrous phenomenon surrounding Serene Peak's dojo, yet fewer than one-tenth dared enter to listen.

Even so.

Several hundred figures within the dojo were fully focused on the Golden Immortal Dao methods, the Five Elements Great Dao Law, alchemy, formations, and body-refinement techniques. They listened so intently that they completely forgot the passage of time.

They were even more earnest than when listening to Sect Master Tongtian preach.

Suddenly.

Qingyuan put away the Great Dao Incense Burner.

He said calmly, "Everyone, I have preached the Dao for three hundred and seventy-five years. The Dao ends here today!"

The Great Dao Incense Burner was put away.

The Preaching Function was also deactivated.

This caused the more than three hundred Jie Sect Disciples present to awaken from their state of enlightenment.

Some wore joyful expressions, clearly having gained something.

Others shook their heads regretfully, seemingly only a little short of breaking through their cultivation realms.

Confusion, admiration, reverence, fear, dullness, enlightenment, resentment, sorrow, joy...

All kinds of emotions could be seen on the faces of the Jie Sect Disciples.

Seeing this scene.

Qingyuan fell silent.

Perhaps this was what Master's All Beings Dao, which taught each person differently, truly meant?

[ Ding! The host has preached the Dao for three hundred and seventy-five years. Preaching has ended. Settling rewards...]

[ Settlement complete. Rewarding the host with 380,000 years of Daoxing, Five Elements Law improvement +2%, Innate Spiritual Root Immortal Apricot *1, Chaos Divine Material *1. Please keep up the good work!]

Boom!

In an instant.

Qingyuan completely entered the Golden Immortal Middle Stage. A terrifying pressure erupted from his body like a raging gale sweeping across the land, forcing the surrounding disciples to lower their heads!!

Such an aura.

Even Great Peng Bird's expression changed.

Master had clearly only just entered the Golden Immortal Middle Stage.

Yet why did facing Master feel even more formidable than facing cultivators who had immersed themselves in the Golden Immortal Late Stage for countless years, or even Golden Immortal Peak cultivators? It was as though he was facing a Grand Unity Golden Immortal?

If he fought Master again, it felt as though he would be easily defeated...

It was not only Great Peng Bird.

Golden Spirit Holy Mother, Holy Mother Wudang, and the many Jie Sect Disciples present.

Felt the same way.

Just how powerful was Senior Disciple Brother? Why did he give them the feeling that they could never defeat him?

"Junior Sister Jin Ling, Junior Sister Wudang, your Daoxing is both higher than mine. Perhaps my preaching was riddled with flaws. Please forgive my inadequacies."

Qingyuan clasped his hands toward the two women, his face full of embarrassment.

Little did he know that upon hearing this.

Bitterness appeared on Jin Ling and Wudang's faces.

Senior Disciple Brother, were you mocking us? We had gained more from listening to you preach than from listening to Master. The essence of your teachings went straight to the origin, unlike Master's profound and abstruse words, which were like looking at flowers through mist...

"Senior Disciple Brother, you jest. We have benefited immensely from your preaching and have not found a single flaw."

The two Personal Disciples of the Interception Sect both shook their heads.

Qiushou Xian, Piluxian, and other Elite Outer Disciples of the Interception Sect also shook their heads and sighed. "Senior Disciple Brother, you truly have a gift for preaching. If we did not know that the teacher had postponed his preaching until three thousand years later, we might have thought that the teacher himself was preaching here!"

"Yes, Senior Disciple Brother. What you taught went straight to the origin. The moment you pointed it out, we understood."

"To be honest, I thought the same. What the teacher teaches feels far too profound..."

Many Jie Sect Disciples chattered excitedly.

They had all been drawn in by the wondrous heavenly phenomena surrounding Serene Peak before entering the dojo to listen to Qingyuan's teachings.

"You are all exaggerating. How could it be that extreme? Compared to Master, I am but an insignificant flicker of firefly light, while Master is the boundless, eternal blazing sun!"

Qingyuan smiled bitterly.

How could he have known.

Sect Master Tongtian had been transformed from Pangu's Primordial Spirit and was already a Grand Unity Golden Immortal from birth.

Though his Daoxing was unfathomable and he was a Heavenly Dao Saint.

He had never personally experienced the realms below Grand Unity Golden Immortal. He could understand the realms beneath sainthood, but only from a god's-eye perspective.

But how could the disciples understand something so profound?

It was like mathematics.

Someone who had never learned addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division might hear another person say that multiplying this number by that number, then adding this number, subtracting that number, and dividing by another number would produce the answer. But who would know what addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division actually were?

Moreover, Sect Master Tongtian had always only taught Daoist methods.

It was like only giving a formula without explaining the deeper principles or providing examples and analysis.

Then he would leave.

He never said anything more.

And who would dare ask a saint about something they did not understand?

Qingyuan, however, had personally experienced those stages and possessed deep understanding of the lower realms.

Furthermore, he had the support of a thread of Great Dao Origin from the Preaching Function.

The Dao he taught was simple and easy to understand!!

Within the dojo.

Many of the Jie Sect Disciples who had come to listen began discussing things excitedly.

"As expected of Senior Disciple Brother. The methods he taught are truly excellent. I already know how to use Water Escape! Next time I deal with that Water Beast, I won't have to flee in such a sorry state!"

"Hahahaha, I have gained some understanding of the Five Elements Escape Art too!"

"The First Disciple of Intercepting Sect's preaching is already this incredible. If teacher Sect Master Tongtian personally preaches the Dao, how much could we gain!!"

"I am also looking forward to the preaching three thousand years from now..."

There were not many people in the dojo.

Most were at the Celestial Immortal and True Immortal stages.

But they were all unrestrained and audacious people, so they did not fear offending anyone as they spoke.

Qingyuan's face twitched as he listened.

Comparing him to Sect Master Tongtian—fortunately, Sect Master Tongtian was not petty. Otherwise, would he not skin Qingyuan alive?

"Master, Master..."

Suddenly.

A voice transmission entered Qingyuan's ears.

Qingyuan was slightly stunned. He turned to look at the peng-headed, human-bodied figure among the crowd, then withdrew his gaze and ignored him.

The smile on Great Peng Bird's face froze.

He forced his smile back into place and sent another voice transmission.

"Master, I was wrong. Please forgive me!!"

"Master, I will never dare do it again."

Great Peng Bird apologized for a long time.

Only then did Qingyuan respond, "There will be no next time."

"Yes, yes, yes! Thank you, Master. Your disciple understands. I will never dare again!!"

Great Peng Bird was overjoyed and began bouncing around on the spot. His lunatic behavior frightened the nearby Jie Sect Disciples into hurriedly moving away, afraid of catching bird plague...
