"Mystic Gate Immortal Method borrowed too much heaven and earth to practice Spiritual Energy, and owed Heavenly Dao the cause and effect, so he had to repay it with a heavenly tribulation.

The foundation of Golden Core Great Dao lies in cultivating Practitioner itself. Essence, Qi, and Spirit is all its own thing, and transformation does not require any help from heaven and earth.

The required Spiritual Energy is extremely small and has no cause and effect, so Heavenly Dao has no right to bring about disaster."

Laozi explained, "The only thing that Practitioner needs to defeat is its own Heart-Demon Tribulation.

Essence, Qi, and Spirit When refining, distracting thoughts will arise, and distracting thoughts are inner demons. To defeat the inner demons is to transcend oneself.

This is the only disaster for Golden Core Great Dao.

It is not a calamity brought by Heavenly Dao, but a calamity set by Xiu Practitioner himself."

Yuanshi was silent for a long time, his eyes Jade Purity Immortal Light were surging, and he was obviously using his knowledge and wisdom to repeatedly verify every word that the elder brother said.

Then he slowly raised his head, his voice carrying a complex emotion that had been suppressed for countless Kalpas:

"Brother, if this path is accomplished, Primordial Wilderness's practice pattern will be completely rewritten.

The era when Mystic Gate Immortal Method monopolized Primordial Wilderness's spiritual path is coming to an end."

"Exactly." Laozi said, looking towards the Primordial Wilderness land outside Kunlun Mountain, looking at the vast world shrouded by Heavenly Dao.

There was no arrogance of success in his eyes, no ecstasy of creation, only a bottomless calm and compassion.

"The Three Pure Ones transformed by Father God Primordial Spirit cannot always be just a disciple of Dao Ancestor.

We founded Golden Core Great Dao to open up a second road to Great Dao for Primordial Wilderness creatures.

There is no need to rely on Heavenly Dao, no need to rely on Spiritual Root, and no need to look at Heavenly Dao's face on this path.

As long as a living being has a heart for the Tao, he or she can practice it.

This is the true intention of God the Father giving us Primordial Spirit three points.

To educate all living beings is not to bring them into the Mystic Gate framework, but to open up more possibilities for all living beings."

There was no disrespect for Hongjun in his voice, nor was there any denial of Mystic Gate.

Dao Ancestor preaches Primordial Wilderness, has the kindness of master and disciple to Three Pure Ones, and has the effect of educating all living beings.

The birth of Golden Core Great Dao is not to replace Mystic Gate Immortal Method, but to provide another choice for Primordial Wilderness creatures.

Just as Laozi originally set the standard.

Pangu's Primordial Spirit's duty is to open up more roads for all sentient beings, not to monopolize the only road.

He looked up to the sky.

Those extremely clear Taiqing eyes reflected the stars and laws that were constantly rotating in the sky.

He knew that the time had come.

"Two junior brothers," Laozi's voice became solemn and solemn, "I want to declare to Great Dao."

Yuanshi and Tongtian looked at each other, clasping their fists and bowing at the same time.

They didn't speak, but the two figures as tall as pine trees said everything.

Three Pure Ones is one, sharing weal and woe.

Laozi stepped out of the range of Innate Three Talents Grand Formation and stood alone at the highest point of Three Pure Ones Peak.

Taiji Diagram slowly unfolded behind him, turning into a Yin-Yang Pisces picture that covered the sky and the sun, with black and white energy flowing continuously in the picture.

Heaven and Earth Mystic Yellow Pagoda rose from above his head, and thousands of Profound Yellow Qi hung down, covering the entire Three Pure Ones Peak like a fairyland.

His voice rang out from the top of Kunlun Mountain. It was not loud at first, but with each word he spoke, the sound got louder and eventually turned into rolling thunder.

It penetrated the thousands of spiritual peaks of Kunlun Mountain, penetrated the mountains and rivers of the Primordial Wilderness earth, penetrated the Astral Wind Layer above Nine Heavens, and penetrated the boundary between Chaos and Primordial Wilderness.

"Great Dao is on top!"

Four words, like the first announcement since Creation of Heaven and Earth.

"I am Taiqing Laozi transformed by Pangu's Primordial Spirit. Today I clearly understand Father God's will. I feel that Primordial Wilderness living beings have a difficult and dangerous path to practice, and I am willing to open up a second road to Great Dao for all living beings.

I have been deducing Kunlun Mountain Three Pure Ones Peak for thousands of years, and finally created Golden Core Great Dao.

This Tao takes itself as the universe and Essence, Qi, and Spirit as its foundation. It does not seek anything from the outside and points directly to Great Dao!

Five realms: Origin Return, Core Formation, Nascent Infant Transformation, Union with the Dao, Hunyuan.

Origin Return collects Three Treasures, Core Formation condenses the Dao seed, Nascent Infant Transformation breaks the Dansheng Dao, Union with the Dao resonates with Great Dao, Nine Revolutions of Hunyuan becomes the Holy Spirit!

This way does not borrow the power of heaven and earth, does not overcome the tribulation of Heavenly Dao, and does not seek the approval of Heavenly Dao. It can only use one's own mind as a boat to cross Sea of Bitterness and reach Other Shore of the Great Dao!"

"From today on, I, Taiqing Laozi, leave Mystic Gate and become independent Daoism!

Golden Core Great Dao is the fundamental Dharma of Daoism. All Primordial Wilderness living beings who are determined to follow the Tao, regardless of their quality of life, noble or low birth, and regardless of race or bloodline, can practice this Tao!"

"Three thousand years later, I will open a forum at Kunlun Mountain to teach Golden Core Great Dao. Anyone who is destined can come and listen!"

His voice echoed between heaven and earth for a long time, and every word was like a brand, deeply embedded in the Great Dao law of Primordial Wilderness.

This is not an announcement to Heavenly Dao that Heavenly Dao is not qualified to rule on the preservation or invalidation of Golden Core Great Dao.

This is a declaration to Great Dao himself, and an explanation made by Pangu's Primordial Spirit to his Father God.

Kunlun Mountain Up and down, countless creatures raised their heads at the same time.

The Twelve Golden Immortals among the Jade Void Palace stood up from the futons one after another, rushed out of the palace gate and looked at the Three Pure Ones Peak summit. They felt an overwhelming Daoist rhyme pouring down from the peak, suppressing the Jade Purity Immortal Method in their bodies and running involuntarily.

Biyou Palace Jie Sect Disciple among the ten thousand immortals who came to the court all kept silent, only feeling that the sound penetrated their Primordial Spirit and touched the deepest point of their life Origin Essence's spiritual clarity.

Primordial Wilderness everywhere, whether it is Thirty-Three Heavens under Demon Clan Heavenly Court, or Witch Tribe under Buzhou Mountain.

Whether it was Zhenyuanzi in Wuzhuang Temple or Jieyin and Zhunti in Western Mount Sumeru, they all felt the vast fluctuations from Kunlun Mountain at this moment.

Laozi did not declare to Heavenly Dao. The object he declared was Great Dao itself.

This is his same choice as Nuwa and Houtu.

Nuwa Creates Humans swore to Great Dao, and Houtu swore to Great Dao when he reincarnated. Now that he established Daoism and founded Golden Core Great Dao, he also swore to Great Dao.

Because he knew in his heart that Golden Core Great Dao was trying to break through the framework of Heavenly Dao. If he declared it to Heavenly Dao, it would be tantamount to tying his own hands and running counter to the original intention of creating the Tao.

Only by announcing to Great Dao can we ensure that Golden Core Great Dao's modification Practitioner is not controlled by Heavenly Dao from the source of the law.

Great Dao responded in the dark.

The sky above Three Pure Ones Peak suddenly cracked, and a golden beam of light that was thicker than Kunlun Mountain poured down from the crack.

That is Great Dao Merit, the purest and highest level of Great Dao Origin Essence power.

Different from Heavenly Dao Merit, when Heavenly Dao Merit descended, it was accompanied by the vision of Golden Lotuses Springing from Earth, which meant a bit of demonstration and announcement.

The arrival of Great Dao Merit has no smallpox, no golden lotus, no fairy music, only the pure and ultimate power itself.

The color of that light beam is brighter than the sun, deeper than Chaos, and the Daoist charm contained in it is thicker than any Numinous Treasure.

The Merit light pillar shrouded Laozi in it, and the entire Three Pure Ones Peak was dyed golden.

The sea of clouds with a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles was penetrated by the light of Merit and turned into a flowing golden ocean.

All the creatures above and below Kunlun Mountain felt a warm and vast power blowing through their bodies and Primordial Spirit.

That is the blessing of Great Dao, a gift to all those who listen to the announcement after the founding of Golden Core Great Dao.

Guangchengzi, Yu Ding Zhenren and others with deep roots in Twelve Golden Immortals felt as if something in their bodies had been ignited the moment they were swept away by the aftermath of Merit.

Laozi was bathed in the Merit beam of light, and the aura on his body began to rise steadily.

He has the cultivation level of Late Quasi-Sage, and he can kill all three corpses.

At this moment, the boundless Great Dao Merit was poured into his body, completely breaking through his last bottleneck.

After all three corpses are killed, the enlightenment is achieved.

It is not the certificate Heavenly Dao, but the certificate Great Dao.

His Primordial Spirit began to transform under the package of Great Dao Merit, jumping from the level of Quasi-Saint to the level of Sage.

There is no catastrophe or obstacle in this process, because Great Dao recognizes his way, his mission, and his choice to open up a second path for Primordial Wilderness sentient beings.

From this moment on, there is a third road leading to Great Dao Sage among Primordial Wilderness.

Nuwa completes Human Path with the creation of human beings Prove Dao with Merit, which is the first one.

Houtu manifests reincarnation through the body, which is the second article to complete Earthly Dao;

Laozi completes Great Dao with the creation of the Tao, the establishment of teachings and the enlightenment of the Tao, which is the third article.

Three roads, three ways, three characters Great Dao Sage.

Under Heavenly Dao, there are already three Sage who are not under its control.

Yuanshi and Tongtian stood in the formation, watching helplessly as the eldest brother's aura started to skyrocket from Late Quasi-Sage.

In just a few breaths, that breath broke through the limit of Quasi-Saint and stepped into the threshold of the Sage realm, but it still did not stop.

Taiji Diagram was spinning crazily behind Laozi, and Yin-Yang Pisces made an extremely clear buzz, which resonated with the fluctuations of Great Dao Merit.

Heaven and Earth Mystic Yellow Pagoda hangs down ten thousand Profound Yellow Qi, locking the aftermath of Laozi's enlightenment firmly on the top of Three Pure Ones Peak.

Yuanshi's Pangu Banner buzzed in the aftermath of Merit, and the giant shadow of Creation of Heaven and Earth on the flag seemed to come to life, raising its head to the sky and letting out a silent roar.

That is the resonance of Pangu's Will. It is Primordial Spirit of God the Father who finally has the first descendant in Primordial Wilderness to attain enlightenment and become a saint.

Tongtian's Immortal Slaying Four Swords buzzed at the same time, and four sword intentions rose into the sky, forming four invisible barriers around the Merit light pillar, firmly locking the aftermath of the enlightenment at the top of the Three Pure Ones Peak, preventing it from leaking out.

They are guarding Senior Brother's sermon.

After an unknown amount of time, the Merit light beam finally slowly dissipated.

The cracks in the sky were closed again, and Three Pure Ones Peak regained its calmness.

But the remaining Daoist charm is still so strong that it cannot be dissipated. The heaven and earth Spiritual Energy with a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles seem to be converging towards the top of Three Pure Ones Peak, as if they want to worship the newly promoted Sage.

Laozi Standing at the top of the mountain, the atmosphere around him was completely different.

His figure has not become taller, and his face has not become more majestic, but his existence itself has transcended the scope of Quasi-Saint.

Great Dao Sage has only appeared three times in Primordial Wilderness now.

The first time was Nuwa, who was certified as Great Dao Sage by creating human Merit, and was summoned by Dao Ancestor to create Wa Huang Palace from Chaos.

The second time was Houtu, who achieved Great Dao Sage through reincarnation Merit, and was trapped in Underworld and confronted with Heavenly Dao will.

The third time, it was him Taiqing Laozi.

But unlike Nuwa and Houtu, Laozi's breath is more restrained and deeper.

When Nuwa attained enlightenment, Creation Power pervaded the ten places of Nine Heavens. When Houtu attained enlightenment, the power of Earthly Dao shook the entire underworld.

And Laozi's sermon was like a wisp of Qingfeng blowing over Primordial Wilderness, extremely quiet, but also extremely majestic.

He is unassuming and unobtrusive, but as long as someone looks at Three Pure Ones Peak top, they will feel it at the first sight.

There stood a real Sage.

Laozi's eyes are clearer.

Those Taiqing eyes no longer reflect the movement of Heavenly Dao's stars, but instead reflect the flow of Great Dao's own laws.

He sees farther than before and understands deeper than before.

The movement of all things in the world, the entangled veins of cause and effect, and the flow of River of Time.

Everything became clear to his eyes.

But he was not expelled from Primordial Wilderness like Nuwa.

When Nuwa preached, Hongjun summoned her to go to Chaos to open up Wa Huang Palace.

Now Laozi is preaching, but there is no sound from Hongjun.

This is not because Hongjun acquiesces, but because Laozi made a preaching oath when he declared to Great Dao.

He personally promised that three thousand years later, he would open a forum at Kunlun Mountain to teach Golden Core Great Dao. Anyone who is destined can come.

This oath was made in front of Great Dao. If Laozi leaves Primordial Wilderness, it will be tantamount to breaking the oath, and Great Dao will inevitably suffer backlash.

Although Hongjun is the incarnation of Heavenly Dao, he cannot forcibly interfere with Great Dao Oath.

This is how we found a foothold within the Heavenly Dao framework that Heavenly Dao cannot shake.

Yuanshi and Tongtian took a step forward at the same time, clasped their fists and bowed, their voices full of heartfelt admiration. "Congratulations, brother, for becoming a saint!"

And Tongtian laughed directly, and the laughter was full of pride. "Brother testified, my Three Pure Ones family now has Sage in charge!"

Three thousand years later, when the elder brother starts teaching Golden Core Great Dao, the younger brother will definitely bring all the disciples in the Biyou Palace to listen!

If not for anything else, just to show those brats what the true power of Sage is!"

"There's no rush." Laozi waved his hand, and his voice returned to its usual calmness and calmness, "Three thousand years is neither long nor short.

Although this Golden Core Great Dao has been deduced and perfected, in addition to being a brother, someone still needs to personally test it to verify the feasibility of each realm.

Second brother and third brother, you have profound cultivation and there will be no problem in the first four realms of the trial, but you still need to be cautious in the fifth realm Hunyuan.

Brother Wei suggests that you don't rush for success for the time being, but first select the right one among your disciples, start practicing from the Origin Return realm, and verify every link of Golden Core Great Dao step by step."

Yuanshi pondered for a moment and said, "What senior brother said is absolutely true.

Golden Core Great Dao does not borrow the power of heaven and earth, and the way of practice is completely different from Mystic Gate Immortal Method. It may be risky to let the disciples switch to practice rashly.

However, among Twelve Golden Immortals, Guangchengzi has the strongest foundation, and Yu Ding Zhenren has the best understanding. We can let the two of them try it out first, and then promote it to the whole class after it is verified to be correct."

"My little brother is not in a hurry."

Through Heavenly Dao, "Biyou Palace has many disciples with all kinds of bones. It is just used to test the effect of Golden Core Great Dao on people with different bones."

The path created by Senior Brother does not rely on Spiritual Root. Does that mean that even those mediocre disciples have a chance?

If this is true, once the word spreads, the casual cultivators in Primordial Wilderness will probably go crazy and flock to Kunlun Mountain."

Laozi nodded slightly. "This is exactly the reason. Golden Core Great Dao Don't judge the level based on the bones, but only the mind.

Those with good abilities may get started faster; those with mediocre abilities can still reach Hunyuan Realm step by step as long as they have a firm mind.

This is the biggest difference between Golden Core Great Dao and Mystic Gate Immortal Method.

Mystic Gate Immortal Method has screened out those with weak foundations from the beginning, and Golden Core Great Dao's door is open to all those who are determined to follow the Tao."

Yuanshi and Tongtian were both moved when they heard this. They naturally understood the weight of this sentence.

Among Primordial Wilderness, there are more than hundreds of millions of mediocre creatures?

Under the system of Mystic Gate Immortal Method, these creatures have no chance of practicing cultivation throughout their lives, and can only live a short life in confusion.

The emergence of Golden Core Great Dao opens up a new way of life for these creatures who were abandoned by Heavenly Dao.

"But having said that," Tongtian suddenly thought of something, "Brother, Golden Core Great Dao may not borrow the power of heaven and earth, but in three thousand years you will hold a sermon in Kunlun Mountain, and then Primordial Wilderness knows how many creatures will come from all over the place.

Although Kunlun Mountain is large, it may not be able to accommodate it. Do we have to make some preparations in advance?"

Laozi nodded slightly. "I will leave this matter to the second and third brothers.

During the three thousand years, you can set up a dojo outside Kunlun Mountain and create a place for teaching.

No matter the size, no matter how gorgeous or simple, it can accommodate as much as it can accommodate. Golden Core Great Dao does not care about ostentation, only the truth."

"Follow Senior Brother's decree." Yuanshi and Tongtian handed over their hands at the same time.

Laozi turned around and looked at the Primordial Wilderness world outside Kunlun Mountain.

View from the top of Three Pure Ones Peak.

You can see Buzhou Mountain, Tongtian, and Heavenly Pillar. You can see Thirty-Three Heavens and Demon Clan Heavenly Court looming in the clouds.

You can see that Western Mount Sumeru is shrouded in a faint golden light, and you can see Wuzhuang Temple and Ginseng Fruit Tree swaying in the wind.

Primordial Wilderness is still running, and the gears of Heavenly Dao are still turning slowly but firmly.

But some things have changed from today on.

Daoism was established, Golden Core Great Dao was created, and the first of Three Pure Ones became a saint.

A path of spiritual practice that does not rely on Heavenly Dao, does not overcome catastrophes, and does not rely on outsiders was officially born.

Primordial Wilderness's practice pattern is destined to undergo an unprecedented drastic change.

And that sermon three thousand years later will be the beginning of this drastic change.
