I Advise You Not to Refuse a Toast Only to Be Forced to Drink a Forfeit!

Before long.

Three thousand years passed as naturally as a breath while the old Sage expounded the Dao and the Red-Dust Guests listened.

Ding—

A crisp chime of the Dao rang out, spreading throughout Violet Cloud Palace.

Gradually.

The Red-Dust Guests immersed in the state of listening to the Dao were awakened by that chime and regained their clarity.

Then.

Satisfied smiles appeared on every face.

They had gained immensely!

The contents of the Sage's second sermon—

Were entirely the essence of how to cultivate in the Great Luo Realm, as well as methods for cultivators at the Perfected Great Luo Realm to enter the realm Beyond Great Luo.

There were two methods in total—

The first.

Comprehend the mysteries of Primordial Unity and forge one's own Primordial Unity Dao.

The second.

Understand oneself, reflect upon oneself, and sever one's Three Corpses—the good, evil, and obsession; the upper, middle, and lower; essence, thought, and spirit, and all such various designations—in order to draw near the Great Dao and step into the level Beyond Great Luo!

During those three thousand years of exposition.

The first thousand years—

Detailed the many wondrous subtleties and core principles of the Great Luo Realm, leaving all who heard it astounded.

The middle thousand years—

Detailed the mysteries of the Primordial Unity Realm, allowing the Red-Dust Guests to understand what Primordial Unity was and offering many suggestions for them to attempt to comprehend their own Primordial Unity Dao.

Of course.

Whether they could succeed depended on their foundations, comprehension, and opportunities.

The final thousand years—

Detailed the many mysteries of the Three-Corpses Severing Method, as well as the essential details of every step and exactly how it should be cultivated.

It also explained one by one.

The many details, matters requiring attention, and obstacles involved in embarking upon the path of Severing the Three Corpses.

In these matters.

The old Sage seated atop the high platform neither would nor did hold anything back!

He already had a path laid out for himself.

As for those who came after—

Whether they walked the path of Primordial Unity or the path of Merit, whether they cultivated the Severing of the Three Corpses, it mattered not!

Even if they attained the Dao-Proven Realm and became Sages, it would not affect him in the slightest.

Besides.

The Primordial Unity Dao—

Since every person cultivated a different Great Dao, their respective Primordial Unity Daos naturally could not be the same!

There was no need to keep anything secret.

Even the Three-Corpses Severing Method he had casually created had meticulous distinctions.

The Three Corpses—

Could be the three thoughts of good, evil, and obsession; the three spirits of upper, middle, and lower; or the three treasures of essence, qi, and spirit, among countless other concepts!

It might not encompass every phenomenon of Primordial Divine Beings, but it was certainly not narrow-minded!

A narrow path to attaining the Dao—

How could it allow cultivators to attain a Great Dao so vast, so boundless, so endless, and so peerlessly profound?

With that being the case.

Why hold anything back?

Back to the point.

Among the Red-Dust Guests—

Dan Jing awoke with a thoroughly satisfied expression. Then, like an elementary school student waiting for his teacher to announce the end of class, he quietly remained seated upon his Solar Meditation Mat.

As he sat there.

He silently adjusted his state and digested the gains he had obtained from listening to the Dao.

Dan Jing was eager to return home:

"Once I return to the Sun Star, I'll immediately enter seclusion and break through to the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal Realm!"

It had to be said.

The old Sage truly was formidable.

His Three-Corpses Severing Method was indeed much easier to enter than the universally known Primordial Unity Dao.

But that was for other Primordial Divine Beings!

For Dan Jing—

Breaking through to the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal Realm was as easy as lifting a hand.

Before coming to listen to the Dao, he had already touched upon his own Primordial Unity Dao.

During the second thousand years of this sermon—

Dan Jing had completely comprehended his Primordial Unity Dao. He merely needed to return and cultivate in seclusion for a short while before smoothly obtaining the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal Dao Fruit.

In fact.

So long as he wished it—

He could enter the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal Realm with a single thought right here and now!

As for why he did not do so?

Dan Jing's intuition told him—

If he waited until he returned to the Sun Star to break through, he might gain some unexpected harvest!

Before long.

The old Sage atop the high platform had completed what he wished to do during this sermon.

That was—

Accept disciples.

Now that he had finished his second sermon and also laid out the Three-Corpses Severing Method of attaining the Dao that he had created.

It was precisely the time to accept disciples.

Thus.

The old Sage atop the high platform directly accepted—

The Three Pure Ones as personal disciples, Nuwa as his final disciple, and the two weeping and wailing men, Jieyin and Zhunti, as registered disciples!

At this point.

The old Sage had finished everything he wished to do in his second sermon.

And so.

After glancing at the many Red-Dust Guests.

He casually said:

"Violet Cloud Palace will open again after ten epochs. You may return then!"

Once his words fell.

The old Sage's figure vanished from atop the high platform once more.

After respectfully seeing him off, the Red-Dust Guests all happily rose from their meditation mats.

Dan Jing, Xi He, and Chang Xi beside him were no exception.

However, just as they had last time, the three of them took away the mats they had sat upon.

These extraordinary meditation mats truly were fine treasures—

They allowed them to better comprehend the Dao's rhythms and cultivate more effectively!

This thing—

After sitting on it enough times, one could become somewhat addicted.

Seeing what Dan Jing and the other two were doing, some clever Red-Dust Guests likewise chose to imitate them without a word.

Quite a few people took away the meditation mats they had used.

After all, these things truly were useful!

"Dan Jing, what do you think about those few changing identities?"

Before they had even left Violet Cloud Palace, Xi He fixed her burning gaze upon Dan Jing and asked him.

At the side.

Chang Xi also turned her cool yet curious eyes toward Dan Jing, wanting to hear his opinion.

At the same time.

The other Red-Dust Guests who noticed the three openly conversing once again pricked up their ears.

It could not be helped—

There was simply too much gossip between the madman Dan Jing and the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa.

They were having far too much fun following the drama to stop!

Of course.

They also wanted to know—

When faced with the Sage's personal disciples and final disciple, would this madman Dan Jing take a step back and compromise?

The past was the past, and the present was the present.

The identities of the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa had changed.

Uh...

Red Cloud was still the same as before.

Dan Jing might compromise with the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa, but as for Red Cloud, he would still beat him however he pleased!

"Hahaha..."

After hearing Xi He's question, Dan Jing froze for a moment before letting out a hearty laugh.

After laughing for a while.

Dan Jing did not answer Xi He's question. Instead, he shifted his gaze toward the smiling Three Pure Ones and Nuwa, whose eyes held joy.

He directly called out in a loud voice:

"Oi!"

"You four over there! Yes, you—"

"The Three Pure Ones and Nuwa! Now that you four useless pieces of trash have become the old man's personal disciples and final disciple, aren't you going to come settle the score with me?"

"Hurry up—"

"Take the initiative and pick a fight, then let me beat you up. My hands have been itching lately."

"I advise you not to refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!"
