Tongtian Sage Admonishes His Disciples, Di Xiao Explains Cultivation Realms!

Golden Turtle Island.

Jade Wanderer Palace, main hall.

Tongtian Sage sat upright upon the throne at the very head.

Below Tongtian Sage, seated on either side, were his four foremost personal disciples: Daoist Duobao, Golden Spirit Holy Mother, Turtle Spirit Holy Mother, and Wudang Holy Mother.

Farther back sat Fire Spirit Holy Mother and Tongtian Sage's Seven Attendant Immortals.

Tongtian Sage, seated in the position of honor, said, "The Investiture of the Gods Tribulation has begun."

"As your master, I warn you: unless necessary, do not leave Golden Turtle Island."

"Now that the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation has begun, the heavenly secrets of the Primordial World are in chaos. At any moment, you may face the risk of falling."

Daoist Duobao, Wudang Holy Mother, Fire Spirit Holy Mother, the Seven Attendant Immortals, and the rest said, "This disciple shall heed Master's command."

Golden Spirit Holy Mother said, "Master, this disciple's disciple Wen Zhong is still serving as an official in the Great Shang Dynasty!"

"Should this disciple summon Wen Zhong back to Jade Wanderer Palace on Golden Turtle Island?"

Tongtian Sage said, "Golden Spirit, this Investiture of the Gods Tribulation is centered upon the Great Shang Dynasty."

"Though Wen Zhong is your disciple, he has been in the mortal world for many years and holds high rank and great authority in the Great Shang Dynasty."

"Therefore, there is no need to summon Wen Zhong back. Let him remain in the Great Shang Dynasty."

Golden Spirit Holy Mother respectfully said, "Yes, Master!"

Tongtian Sage then looked toward the Seven Attendant Immortals.

At that moment, Daoist Duobao said, "Master, what about the outer disciples of our Interception Sect?"

"Should this disciple go and convey Master's order?"

Tongtian Sage said, "Duobao, you shall personally deliver my warning."

Daoist Duobao respectfully said, "This disciple shall heed Master's command."

Daoist Duobao then rose and left the main hall of Jade Wanderer Palace.

Great Shang Imperial Palace.

Di Xin brought Yin Jiao and Yin Hong to the study of Longevity Immortal Palace.

Just then, Di Xuan walked in from outside.

The moment Yin Jiao and Yin Hong saw Di Xuan's appearance, they were utterly stunned.

Yin Jiao and Yin Hong looked at Di Xin, then at Di Xuan.

The two discovered that Di Xuan, who had entered, looked exactly like their imperial father.

For a moment, Yin Jiao and Yin Hong thought their eyes had deceived them.

At once, the two of them stretched out their hands and rubbed their eyes hard.

When Yin Jiao and Yin Hong opened their eyes again, they still saw two identical Di Xins.

Both shocked and bewildered, Yin Jiao and Yin Hong asked, "Which one of you is our imperial father?"

Di Xin smiled. "Jiao'er, Hong'er, both he and I are your imperial fathers!"

Yin Jiao and Yin Hong asked in confusion, "But...?"

Di Xin said, "Jiao'er, Hong'er, your father knows you have many questions."

"But you will understand in time."

Di Xin nodded to Di Xuan.

Di Xuan said, "Jiao'er, Hong'er, come with your father."

Yin Jiao and Yin Hong said, "Yes, Father."

With a casual wave of his hand, Di Xuan conjured a portal through the void within the study of Longevity Immortal Palace.

Yin Jiao and Yin Hong were dumbstruck at the sight of the void portal appearing out of thin air.

Di Xuan said, "Jiao'er, Hong'er, don't just stand there. Come with your father."

With that, Di Xuan stepped directly into the void portal. Yin Jiao and Yin Hong came back to their senses and hurried in after him.

After Di Xuan brought Yin Jiao and Yin Hong inside, the portal in the void vanished.

Chaos Pearl Spatial World.

Di Xuan brought Yin Jiao and Yin Hong to a great hall atop the tallest giant peak amid countless towering mountains.

After entering the great hall, Yin Jiao and Yin Hong saw an even more shocking sight.

In an instant, Yin Jiao and Yin Hong covered their mouths with both hands and stared at Di Xiao in utter shock.

Yin Jiao and Yin Hong discovered that there was yet another person here who looked exactly like their imperial father.

For a moment, the minds of Yin Jiao and Yin Hong fell into complete chaos.

However, it was not only Yin Jiao and Yin Hong who were shocked. Everyone else in the hall also looked at Di Xiao in astonishment, then at Di Xuan!

Seeing that everyone was still frozen in shock, Di Xiao said, "All right, what are you all standing around for?"

Hearing Di Xiao's words, everyone came back to their senses and looked at him.

Di Xiao said, "Get acquainted with one another first."

After saying that, Di Xiao and Di Xuan vanished together.

At this moment, Yang Jian, Jin Zha, Mu Zha, Jiang Wenhuan, Huang Tianhua, Huang Tianxiang, and Wei Hu were in the hall.

Before long, Yin Jiao and Yin Hong had become familiar with the seven people in the hall.

Just then, Di Xiao and Di Xuan entered the hall.

Di Xiao said, "All right, since everyone is acquainted now."

"Before we begin cultivating, I'll first explain what you need to pay attention to in cultivation, as well as the realms of cultivation."

"The Primordial World has three major cultivation realms: the Mortal Realm, the Immortal Realm, and the Saint Realm!"

"Among them, the Mortal Realm is further divided into four minor realms: Refining Essence into Qi, Refining Qi into Spirit Transformation, Refining Spirit and Returning to Void, and Returning to Void and Joining the Dao!"

"The Immortal Realm has eight minor realms: Human Immortal Realm, Earth Immortal Realm, Heaven Immortal Realm, True Immortal Realm, Mysterious Immortal Realm, Golden Immortal Realm, Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, and Great Luo Golden Immortal!"

"Once one reaches Great Luo Golden Immortal Great Perfection, one must begin preparing to attain the Dao."

"In the Primordial World, there are many paths to attaining the Dao as a Saint."

"The first is achieving Sainthood through laws—directly comprehending laws with the cultivation of a Great Luo Golden Immortal at Great Perfection and becoming a Saint."

"The second is severing the Three Corpses: the evil corpse, the good corpse, and the self corpse, then merging the three corpses into one to attain the Dao as a Saint."

"Then there is achieving Sainthood through merit, using immense power of destiny and merit to become a Heavenly Dao Saint."

"The Saint Realm is further divided into three realms: Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin, Zenith Heaven Supreme Great Luo Golden Immortal, and Zenith Heaven Limitless Great Luo Golden Immortal!"

"These three realms respectively correspond to the Saints, Heavenly Dao, and Great Dao of the Primordial World!"

"No matter which method one uses to attain the Dao, the three thousand Great Daos all lead to the same destination."

After Di Xiao finished explaining the cultivation realms, Yang Jian, Yin Jiao, Yin Hong, Jin Zha, Mu Zha, Jiang Wenhuan, Huang Tianhua, Huang Tianxiang, and Wei Hu listened with great relish.

The nine of them looked at Di Xiao with longing still written across their faces.

Di Xiao said, "I've finished explaining the cultivation realms. Now it's time to pass on cultivation techniques to you!"

With a casual wave of his hand, Di Xiao shifted time and space.

The nine of them arrived in the center of a plaza.

Then, with a thought from Di Xiao, an infant appeared out of thin air in the center of the plaza.

Seeing the infant appear from nowhere, Yang Jian and the others revealed puzzled expressions.

"How is there an infant here?"

"Who is this infant???"

Di Xiao said, "This infant is Lei Zhenzi!"

"All right, immediately sit cross-legged. I will impart cultivation techniques to you."

The instant Di Xiao's words fell, Yang Jian and the other nine quickly sat down cross-legged on the spot.

Once Di Xiao saw that the nine were seated properly, he silently recited, "System, transmit the Nine Revolutions Origin Art and Nine Revolutions Mystic Art to everyone present!"

In an instant, Di Xiao casually waved his hand, sending the Nine Revolutions Origin Art and Nine Revolutions Mystic Art from the system into the minds of the nine.

The Nine Revolutions Origin Art and Nine Revolutions Mystic Art were the cultivation techniques of the Pangu Demon God.

The Nine Revolutions Origin Art was a technique for cultivating the Primordial Spirit, while the Nine Revolutions Mystic Art was a technique for cultivating the physical body.

If Yang Jian and the other nine succeeded in cultivating both the Nine Revolutions Origin Art and the Nine Revolutions Mystic Art, then they would unleash extraordinarily powerful combat strength.

In the original Investiture of the Gods storyline, the Eighty-Nine Mystic Art cultivated by Yang Jian had already made his combat power so terrifying after his body became a Saint.

If Yang Jian and the other nine cultivated both the Nine Revolutions Origin Art and the Nine Revolutions Mystic Art to completion and reached a certain realm, how terrifying would that be?

For a moment, even Di Xiao did not dare imagine it!
