The Monster Whose Comprehension Was More Absurd Than Any Prodigy's

In the primordial chaos Heaven Beyond Heaven, three illusory figures stood suspended in mid-air.

"Hahaha, did you hear that?" Qin Taiyi laughed and patted the purple-robed figure beside him. "He actually said he wanted to establish a separate Dao Lineage, and he even seemed to have the intention of surpassing all the heavens."

Qin Taiyi started laughing, he couldn't stop.

He had been waiting for a very, very long time, so long that he had forgotten when he last met someone so interesting.

It's so funny, yet so exciting.

Heavenly Emperor Ji, surrounded by purple qi, and Heavenly Emperor Li beside him both had serious expressions, without the slightest hint of a smile.

Only happy people can laugh, but they were very unhappy after seeing Qin Wangchuan.

Even sorrow.

Heavenly Emperor Li stroked his long beard and finally sighed deeply, "If the previous Celestial Being Realm was just a sign, then now we can be completely certain."

"The Great Era has begun, and Qin Wangchuan alone has ushered it out ahead of Great Era... It seems I didn't bet on the wrong horse."

It's a pity they're not from the Li Clan, but at least we've taken a gamble.

Heavenly Emperor Ji, standing nearby, thought differently.

He did keep some money, but not much; he just gave away a few things.

Unlike Old Man Li, who gave away all his precious daughters.

'Perhaps... I could bet more?' Heavenly Emperor Ji pondered to himself.

After laughing enough, Qin Taiyi slowly straightened up. His gaze pierced through the layers of World Barrier and fell upon Qin Wangchuan, who was speaking eloquently on the Dao Platform. The more he looked, the more satisfied he became.

Although the Young Master of the family are also capable, they lack this kind of spirit and awareness.

"Keep going, keep going, let's see if he can carve out an Immortal Path."

"Speaking of the Immortal Path, doesn't the Ji Clan have one?" Heavenly Emperor Ji asked.

"That?" Qin Taiyi shook his head. "There is indeed a broken Immortal Path, but I went to see it."

The Immortal Path has been severed.

"However... I have cleared the obstacles. You can also send your younger family members; perhaps someone with great fortune will be able to gain something."

Outside the chaos, the Three Heavenly Emperors were still conversing, while below Qin Wangchuan had already begun preaching.

At the Dao Platform, Qin Wangchuan's voice still clearly reached everyone's ears. "The Sword of Primordial Beginning did not originate from this moment, but from the beginning of time..."

"A wisp of Spiritual Power was sent to the distant past, and over time, it spontaneously absorbed Spiritual Qi and became a Sword Qi."

"This Sword Qi, like a cultivator, grows by absorbing Spiritual Qi over the long river of time."

"When the Sword Qi has accumulated enough power over the long river of time—enough to the Severing the Star River —it can be summoned back to the present world by simply using a pre-set causal anchor point."

"It can be activated with a sword, a finger, or even a single thought."

"This is the Primordial Intent: to use the past to sever the present."

His voice wasn't loud, but it seemed to carry a certain Dao Rhyme, allowing even the outermost cultivators to hear it clearly.

When he occasionally demonstrates sword techniques, the trajectory of his fingertips is directly imprinted in everyone's mind.

However, some cultivators stood there stunned, inwardly complaining:

'No? What's the point of that?'

'Is this my phone? Where did you put it?'

Subsequently, Li Qingluan, Chu Wujiu, and others went on stage one after another.

"The essence of the Li Clan Sword Seal lies in the sword itself..."

"Ordinary cultivation involves absorbing Spiritual Qi and converting it into Spiritual Power, but my Chu Clan's Battle Intent Furnace skips this step, directly converting Spiritual Qi into a temporary flow within the body..."

"The talisman is the pattern of heaven and earth. It carries the Dao and can connect to all methods. My Zhao Clan Heavenly Talisman is heaven-defying; a single talisman can reverse Yin Yang and disrupt the Qiankun. But today we will talk about the most inconspicuous branch of it— the Paper Figurine Technique..."

One after another, Prodigy took to the stage, their Dao Competition and each displaying their unique brilliance.

Dao Platform, countless cultivators held their breath and concentrated, desperately absorbing the insights of these Prodigy like sponges.

Some people gain something from it, while others, the deeper they delve, become increasingly lost in a fog, finding the words precious yet unable to grasp their true meaning.

Of course, they weren't the only ones scratching their heads in frustration.

Su Yuze, the State Lord of Dayan, stood on the high pavilion, watching the cultivators surging in like a tide, his forehead already covered in fine beads of sweat.

"Your Majesty, the Dojo is already overflowing!" The captain of the guards rushed over, his voice trembling. "The Flying Ship of the major Aristocratic Clan alone have filled the outskirts of the Imperial Capital!"

The State Lord wiped his sweat and glanced at the dark mass of people below.

The once spacious Dojo was now packed with people. Later cultivators even climbed the walls and treetops, and some even hung in mid-air.

"Tear it down!" Su Yuze waved his hand sharply. "Tear down all the walls around the Dao Platform! Lift the roof off too!"

The captain of the guards was taken aback. "But that was the late emperor..."

"The late emperor would have done the same!" Su Yuze interrupted sharply, "Go now!"

With a deafening roar, the walls surrounding the Dao Platform collapsed, and the glazed roof was completely ripped off.

Sunlight poured down, shining on Qin Wangchuan and gilding him with a golden edge.

But that's far from enough.

People continued to arrive from elsewhere.

Su Yuze gritted his teeth. "Issue my decree to lift all restrictions on the Imperial City and allow the Flying Ship to hover directly above the Dao Platform!"

Soon, a spectacular sight appeared in the Imperial City Dayan.

On the ground, cultivators sat or stood, densely covering the ten-mile-long street; in mid-air, various Flying Ship Law Treasure were stacked layer upon layer, like floating staircases; even higher, Great Power directly tore through the void, sitting cross-legged in the spatial rifts to listen.

Some used the Mystic Light Mirror to project images of the Dao Platform, some used the Water Curtain Technique to amplify the sound of preaching, and some cultivators skilled in formations even temporarily set up Sound Transmission Array.

The entire Imperial City was bathed in a dazzling array of spiritual light, resembling a glittering galaxy.

"This is... the Great Era..." Su Yuze looked at this unprecedented Grand Occasion and his legs went weak.

"I never imagined that this place of mine would become Myriad Ages unprecedented Holy Land for spreading the truth because of one person."

He murmured to himself, his gaze unconsciously drifting towards Qin Wangchuan.

Every era is ushered in by a few extraordinary Prodigy. Although I knew this, witnessing this scene with my own eyes was still awe-inspiring.

The imperial law that is being transmitted today will spread like wildfire across Three Thousand Dao Provinces.

At that time, all sorts of changes will emerge—some will take a part of its True Intention and create new tricks, some will integrate it and find another way, and some will go against the grain.

There will be conflict, there will be death, but we will move forward.

Everyone who came to hear the sermon was absolutely certain that the new era... had truly arrived!

If we were to say who benefited the most from this evangelistic endeavor...

"I see. So this is your family's Battle Intent Furnace. It is indeed extraordinary. But... with a little modification, wouldn't it become Sword Intent Furnace?"

Qin Wangchuan tried operating the furnace and, as it operated, Sword Intent suddenly soared into the sky.

He made a grasping motion with his hand, and a Spirit Energy Sword instantly appeared in his grasp.

Or perhaps...

Before the words were finished, the Spirit Energy Sword dissipated.

Relatively speaking.

Fine golden lines appeared on Qin Wangchuan's skin, and a misty white fog rose from his body.

As the internal furnace circulated, a surge of powerful Qi and Blood erupted from his body like a volcanic eruption.

Qin Wangchuan clenched his fist and muttered to himself, "Indeed, as I thought, the Battle Intent Furnace will enhance one's realm and physical strength, but realm is ultimately superficial, so it's better to focus all the effort on the physical body. This becomes the Spirit Power Furnace..."

After he finished speaking, he looked up at the crowd.

Everyone present, whether Prodigy or senior elders, had their pupils shrink and their breath catch in their throats.

--You mean, not only did you comprehend the Chu Clan's Battle Intent Furnace in half a day, but you also elevated it to a completely new level?

And it even spawned two completely different ways of using it?

"Monster..." someone whispered.

These two words should have been a slip of the tongue in shock, but now, to everyone's ears,

Yet it became the most fitting commentary.

On Dao Platform, everyone nodded in agreement.

A monster more monstrous than any demon.

--Besides these two words, I really can't find a more fitting description.

After concluding his teachings, Qin Wangchuan planned to go into seclusion for two years to digest the Daoist teachings of various races.

After that, we will set off for Middle Thousand Provinces and Jiuqu Realm.

This trip was not just about sending Xu Qing and the others off.

They also wanted to see what had become of the Wen Dao Palace.
