"Elder Sister Houtu's Nascent Soul cultivation breaking through to the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm is entirely thanks to your ability to recreate the Dao Ancestor's sermon scene."

"Even the Dao Ancestor probably never imagined that someone could fully restore that sermon scene. Such an earth-shattering matter, Qing Xuan, you must keep it absolutely secret."

Although Fu Xi was overjoyed at Houtu's breakthrough, he also sensed the danger. He couldn't help but remind Qing Xuan.

Qing Xuan smiled and nodded, "Thank you for the reminder, Fu Xi. I will be cautious and do my best to keep this secret from others."

At the same time, Qing Xuan noticed a trace of dejection on Nuwa's face. She was also shaking her head incessantly.

So he directly asked Nuwa, "What's wrong with you? I feel like something's off."

Nuwa looked up at Qing Xuan and said, "Little Gourd Vine, I can feel that I'm about to break through. But I just can't grasp the key point."

At this moment, Nuwa's cultivation had already reached the peak of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm. If she broke through again, she would become a Golden Immortal of the Origin.

So Qing Xuan directly said to Nuwa, "The Dao Ancestor's sermon this time was about the Quasi-Saint's Dao. If you didn't even listen to the Dao, how can you grasp the opportunity for breakthrough?"

"However, I do have some insights on this. To break through to the Quasi-Saint Realm, which is the Golden Immortal of the Origin, you can only do so by comprehending the Great Dao Law."

"If you cannot successfully comprehend the true essence of the Great Dao Law, even if you cultivate for countless eons, you will remain stuck at the peak of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, unable to advance half a step."

"But now the Great Dao has retreated, and the Heavenly Dao has emerged. Comprehending the true Great Dao Law is no easy task."

"However, the top-tier beings of the Primordial World, at the moment of their Form Transformation, already possess a complete Great Dao Law within their bodies. They naturally have an advantage in breaking through to the Golden Immortal of the Origin."

"So you only need to seek within yourself, rather than searching for opportunities externally. As long as you can truly comprehend yourself, the breakthrough will come naturally."

"That's all I know. As for the detailed cultivation method, I suspect only after listening to the Dao Ancestor's sermon this time will I truly understand."

Qing Xuan did not mention that Hong Jun was teaching the Method of Severing Three Corpses this time. Instead, he directly spoke of cultivation through the Great Dao Law.

This was to prevent Nuwa and Fu Xi from seeking quick success, using the Method of Severing Three Corpses that Hong Jun taught, and relying on Innate Spiritual Treasures to sever their Three Corpses for a breakthrough.

Of course, the Method of Severing Three Corpses that Hong Jun taught was not a heretical path. At most, it was just a clever shortcut in cultivation.

Every Innate Spiritual Treasure contains a Great Dao Law. The higher the grade of the treasure, the more complete the law within.

Using a treasure to sever a Three Corpses Incarnation essentially means using one's clone to merge into the law of the Innate Spiritual Treasure, then feeding back into oneself.

So severing the Three Corpses is easy, but achieving Three Corpses Unification is extremely difficult. The only way is to use three treasures containing the same law to sever the Three Corpses.

That's right, Innate Spiritual Treasures with the same law, not just from the same lineage. For example, the Five Directional Flags, though from the same lineage, contain different Great Dao Laws.

The Eastern Azure Lotus Treasure Banner contains the Wood Law. The Southern Earth-Leaving Flame Light Banner contains the Fire Law. The five flags each contain one of the Five Elements Laws.

Unless you are like Kong Xuan, who specializes in the Great Dao Five Elements Law, if you try to use the Five Directional Flags to sever your Three Corpses, don't even think about unifying them.

Throughout the entire Primordial World, Innate Spiritual Treasures with the same law are almost countable on one hand. The Thirty-Six Sea-Calming Pearls can be considered one.

There are also the Five Divine Lamps. Though their Divine Fires differ, they all belong to the Great Dao Fire Law. They too are Innate Spiritual Treasures that can be used to complete the Severing of Three Corpses.

Beyond these, you could piece together other Innate Spiritual Treasures with the same law, but their grades cannot compare to the first two.

Qing Xuan suggested to Nuwa that she seek within herself rather than externally, to make her understand that even without relying on the Path of Severing Three Corpses, her Roots alone could allow her to Prove Dao as a Golden Immortal of the Origin.

As for why Qing Xuan didn't directly explain the key point, it wasn't because he didn't trust Fu Xi and Nuwa, but because some things need to be comprehended personally to be truly understood.

Qing Xuan's role was to give them a starting point, then let them explore on their own and find a cultivation method that suited them.

Nuwa naturally didn't think that deeply. She just felt that Qing Xuan made sense. But if it were someone else, they'd probably go into seclusion to comprehend immediately.

However, Nuwa was no cultivation maniac. She directly pulled Qing Xuan and said, "We've been in your folding fan for a thousand years. Have you forgotten something important?"

Qing Xuan thought for a moment and understood what Nuwa meant. He immediately released his Spiritual Sense to investigate and indeed found the Four Seas Dragon Kings, along with the Eight Young Talents of the Dragon Clan, waiting outside Fangzhang Island.

"How could I have forgotten this? The Four Seas Dragon Kings have probably been waiting outside Fangzhang Island for nearly a thousand years."

As he spoke, Qing Xuan waved his hand, and the Island Protection Grand Formation instantly opened a passage. "My apologies for the wait, fellow Daoists."

Finally hearing Qing Xuan's voice, Ao Guang couldn't help but Show Joy. However, he didn't immediately lead his people into Fangzhang Island. Instead, he bowed respectfully and said, "East Sea Dragon King Ao Guang, along with my three brothers and eight juniors of the Dragon Clan, have come to Pay respects to Qing Xuan Daojun, begging the Daojun to grant us an opportunity."

Qing Xuan said, "A guest is a guest. There's no sense in chatting outside the door. Please, fellow Daoists, enter the island and let us talk."

Ao Guang nodded and led the group into Fangzhang Island. Soon, they stood before Qing Xuan.

The Four Seas Dragon Kings were already stunned by the scenery of Fangzhang Island and the dense Innate Spiritual Qi within.

Ao Guang directly said, "Qing Xuan Daojun's residence is truly a Top-grade Blessed Land. Even Kunlun Mountain is no match for this."

Qing Xuan smiled and said, "I was lost in comprehending what I learned from the sermon at Zixiao Palace, and a thousand years passed without my notice."

"Causing you, fellow Daoists, to wait outside the island for a full millennium is This Daoist's fault. As compensation, This Daoist will do his utmost to help these eight Dragon Clan talents obtain their ancestral inheritance."

The East Sea Dragon King was overjoyed upon hearing this. He bowed to Qing Xuan in thanks, then introduced the eight talents to him.

Qing Xuan had originally thought that the first batch sent would be the Four Seas Dragon Kings' own sons, like Ao Bing or Mo Ang.

But to his surprise, not one of these eight dragons was a son of the Four Seas Dragon Kings.

After a moment's thought, Qing Xuan understood the key point. The Four Seas Dragon Kings had only recently taken control of the Four Seas, so their eggs probably hadn't even hatched yet.

So he directly said, "This Daoist doesn't care what you were called before. From now on, you will take Ao as your surname, and your names will be, in order: Qian, Dui, Li, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Gen, Kun."
