I Was Merging with the Dao of Heaven and Earth

Cult Leader Tongtian swept his gaze over those below.

All the living beings wore solemn expressions, not daring to make a racket.

Mu Chen kept his head lowered.

He chanted silently to himself.

You can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me!

Although he had the Heaven-Deceiving Cloak,

Mu Chen was still a little worried right under Tongtian's nose.

After all, as Hongjun's most beloved youngest disciple, Tongtian had been left most of the spirit treasures on the Treasure-Dividing Rock.

He had even been given the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation, the Heavenly Dao's foremost killing formation.

Who knew what other bizarre magical treasures he might have?

The next moment,

Tongtian's gaze rested on Mu Chen... then withdrew without the slightest pause.

Mu Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

It worked!

Tongtian withdrew his gaze and slowly spoke.

"Today, I shall expound the profound teachings of the Jie Sect here. May all living beings listen carefully. Those with the destined affinity may join the Jie Sect."

"This preaching shall last three hundred years."

"The Jie Sect takes its name from intercepting heaven's secrets. What does it mean to intercept? It is..."

Tongtian spoke slowly.

He explained profound truths in simple terms.

Unlike Hongjun, he did not begin with the mysteries of the Great Dao.

Instead, he began with the finer details, which made things all the clearer here.

Mu Chen silently admired him too.

Old Tong really did know a thing or two!

In the modern world, he would qualify as a gold-medal livestream lecturer!

At that thought, Mu Chen could not help gradually settling down to listen seriously.

The living beings of the Primordial World sought the Great Dao.

Now that the mysteries of the Great Dao were before them, everyone listened with utmost concentration.

Three hundred years passed in the blink of an eye.

One day,

Tongtian glanced at the sky and suddenly stopped his lecture.

Before long,

The enthralled listeners slowly began waking from their slumber, one after another.

More than a dozen people remained asleep in Dao enlightenment.

Daoist Duobao looked at those dozen or so people, a trace of a smile appearing on his face.

The later someone awoke from his master's preaching, the deeper their understanding of the Great Dao and the greater their talent.

This was also one of the important criteria for admission into the Jie Sect.

Clearly, those dozen or so people could now join the Jie Sect.

Cult Leader Tongtian's expression remained unchanged as he called softly,

"Awaken."

No sooner had his words fallen

Than the dozen or so people immersed in Dao enlightenment woke with a start, one after another, looking around with bewilderment filling their eyes.

Zhao Gongming was among them.

During Tongtian's preaching, he had felt as though his entire soul had sunk into it.

Yet now that he had awoken, despite clearly having done nothing, his cultivation realm had soared to a terrifying level.

His face could not help filling with delight.

Daoist Duobao then swept his gaze over the gathering below.

To his surprise, he discovered that one last person among the dozen or so had yet to awaken.

It was actually Fellow Daoist Wang Zha.

Young Fellow Daoist Wang Zha truly did possess extraordinary talent.

It seemed this so-called Heaven-Exploding Gang was worth my attention too.

Daoist Duobao pondered silently.

The others noticed this as well.

They could not help whispering among themselves.

"Good grief, he's merely a Heavenly Immortal of the Human Race, so how does this fellow have such a deep understanding of the Dao?"

"The vast Primordial World truly has many unknown geniuses. This man isn't as shameless as he looks."

"No kidding. Could an ordinary person openly auction off the front seat at a Dao preaching? I could tell at a glance this fellow was no ordinary person!"

Even Cult Leader Tongtian could not help nodding silently.

The Jie Sect needed precisely this kind of talent.

Thus, he called out a second time.

"The Great Dao is boundless; mastery does not come in a moment. Awaken."

Mu Chen remained utterly motionless, as though he had heard nothing.

Tongtian was rather surprised.

Still not waking?

His Dao voice could instantly awaken cultivators immersed in Dao enlightenment without causing any harm to the one using it. It had never failed before.

Just as he was about to raise his voice,

He saw a transparent bubble appear on Mu Chen's nose.

Then the bubble grew bigger and bigger, producing a strange sound at the same time.

"Snore... snore... snrr..."

At last, with a pop,

The bubble burst.

Mu Chen woke immediately.

Then, his face full of annoyance, he craned his head from side to side and said,

"Who? Who? Which bastard called me just now? I was fucking merging with the Dao of heaven and earth!"

The air instantly fell deathly silent.

Everyone's expression turned bizarre, as though they had been petrified.
