Lin Potian had said something similar before, which initially surprised the people around him, but they couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Although Li Taiqing knew that Lin Potian's words meant to put the topic of Lu Fan aside, he shook his head helplessly and patted Lin Potian on the back of the head.
"Stop talking nonsense! The Heavenly Court Peach of Immortality Garden is the property of the Heavenly Emperor, cultivated over many years. How can it be moved so easily?"
"Besides, how could Master do such a thing? As the Wuji Dao Venerable, Master Tongtian possesses extraordinary abilities; what's so strange about him cultivating this peach grove?"
Lu Fan coughed lightly and added:
"Junior Brother Lin, the types of Peach of Immortality trees here are quite similar to those seen in the Heavenly Court, but compared to the Heavenly Court Peach of Immortality Garden, our Peach of Immortality Garden is undoubtedly much larger, even surpassing the Heavenly Court Peach of Immortality Garden!"
As far as I can see, Master must have cultivated this peach grove elsewhere long ago; this is just the first time we've seen it.
Su Ming nodded, clearly agreeing with what Lu Fan said:
"Brother Lu is absolutely right, especially about that central Peach of Immortality tree. Have you ever seen it in the Heavenly Court Peach of Immortality Garden?"
Jiang Hao stared intently at the ancient Nine-Colored Ancient Peach of Immortality Tree, his senses most acutely sensitive to its high-quality vitality and the power of creation.
"I can sense that consuming even one of those nine-colored Peach of Immortality would be of immense benefit to us!"
As for the Peach of Immortality tree at the very center, he didn't dare to think about it, for fear of losing control of himself.
While everyone was discussing, Little White couldn't contain himself any longer. He quietly slipped under a fairy tree, picked Peach of Immortality that radiated a golden halo, and muttered to himself:
"Just a small bite... let's see if it tastes sweeter than the one in Heavenly Court..."
When the Heavenly Court received them, they placed many spiritual fruits and fine wines in front of each of them, including Peach of Immortality of immortality.
The next second, it received a light slap on the forehead from Little Gold.
"We, as spirit pets, are supposed to protect our master's things. How could you steal them from us?"
Little Gold glared at Little White with an air of authority, firmly convinced of his own identity.
She resolutely opposes anything that infringes upon Han Xuanji's interests, treating even Little White the same way.
Little White shrank back, sheepishly withdrew his hand, and muttered:
"I picked this to taste if it's ripe, so I'll feel more at ease giving it to my owner later."
Seeing Little White's appearance, everyone looked at each other and laughed.
Before long, they heard Han Xuanji's call to them. Everyone's expressions turned solemn, and they quickly tidied their appearance, suppressed their distracting thoughts, and transformed into streaks of light, flying towards the main hall of the Dao Palace.
At this moment, Han Xuanji stood before the Mystic Heaven Dao Palace, dressed in a simple blue robe, his aura ethereal, looking down upon everything he had created.
He calmly looked at the crowd filing in.
Li Taiqing, Lu Fan, Lin Potian, and other disciples stood in order and bowed in greeting.
"Greetings, Master!"
No need for formalities.
Han Xuanji slightly raised his hand, and a gentle Daoist aura lifted everyone up.
His expression was calm as he looked at the respectful crowd, his voice carrying evenly to everyone's ears:
"This is the Mystic Heaven Dao Palace, the foundation upon which we find our place and build our path to the pinnacle of Dao."
"The Great Dao is boundless, only through diligent cultivation can one approach it; the tribulation is approaching, only strength can sustain us. Today I have summoned you all here to impart to you my Mystic Heaven Great Dao."
At this moment, the battle between immortals and demons is raging, and some among the crowd are planning to compete for fortune in this Calamity Tribulation. Han Xuanji naturally intends to improve their cultivation, as he cannot ignore these disciples.
Han Xuanji's gaze first fell on Lu Fan, and he said gently:
" Lu Fan, you bear the throne of the Human Emperor, but do not forget your cultivation. Wait until after this lecture before you leave."
Upon hearing this, Lu Fan was deeply moved. He immediately realized that this was a special message from his master when he returned.
"This disciple will remember Master's teachings and will listen attentively, making the most of this fortuitous opportunity."
Han Xuanji then looked at the others:
"The same applies to you all. What I have just spoken concerns the realm of Hunyuan. How much you can comprehend depends entirely on your own destiny and understanding."
Everyone agreed, feeling both excited and nervous.
The Hunyuan Wuji Dao Venerable personally expounding the Dao is an unparalleled fortuitous opportunity even in the Immortal Realm; countless people throughout history have received this fortuitous opportunity.
Everyone followed Han Xuanji into the main hall. They felt the abundant Spiritual Qi inside, and just one breath was enough to make their cultivation feel lighter and their minds feel much more relaxed.
"Please sit down."
Han Xuanji sat atop the Chaos Azure Lotus, his robes fluttering lightly. Within the hall, clouds and mist automatically condensed, transforming into crystal-clear Dao Comprehension Meditation Cushion —the very " Taiji Dao Comprehension Meditation Cushion " he had previously obtained through a fortune-telling.
The futon, once placed on the ground, naturally exudes a calming and soothing Daoist charm that helps one attain enlightenment.
The group sat down as instructed. The futons were warm, and a refreshing sensation flowed from their tailbone straight to their spiritual center. Instantly, all distracting thoughts vanished, their minds became clear, and they entered the optimal state for listening to the teachings.
Even the usually most lively Little White was unusually quiet at this moment, with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was adjusting his breathing.
Seeing that everyone was ready, Han Xuanji said no more, closed his eyes slightly, and then opened them again.
As he opened his eyes, it seemed as if Wuliang radiance emanated from them, only to vanish in an instant.
He did not preach loudly Wutian; he simply began to expound on the Mystic Heaven Great Dao in the most peaceful tone.
The sound was not loud, yet it seemed to resonate directly in the deepest part of the soul of every listener. Every word seemed to contain profound mysteries of the Great Dao, stirring the resonance of the listener's inner Law Power and guiding their understanding of the Principle of heaven and earth.
Suddenly, strange phenomena occurred within the hall.
Above Han Xuanji's head, a vast and boundless scroll of the Great Dao naturally manifested, in which Chaos was created, yin and yang were differentiated, the Five Elements Wheel, stars were arranged, and all things were born and died... all the ultimate principles of the Great Dao were demonstrated.
The content expounded by Han Xuanji gradually rises from the basic cultivation of Qi absorption to the comprehension of Principle, the construction of the Great Dao, and the attainment of Hunyuan supreme principles of Hunyuan.
With just a few words, everyone felt that the road ahead was clear.
They were all born with Chaos Physique and extraordinary comprehension; each of them possessed great fortune. Now, they were full of confidence, believing that given enough time, they would eventually reach the Hunyuan Realm.
As Han Xuanji preached, an invisible Daoist aura, like ripples on water, spread from the Mystic Heaven Dao Palace to the entire Mystic Heaven Dao Domain.
The first to be affected were the Mystic Spirit Clan people who were gathered around the Dao Palace, busy planning their new home.
Han Xuanji did not interfere much with the growth of the Mystic Spirit Clan, but simply acquiesced to their existence, and the disciples did not make contact with them for the time being.
However, the Mystic Spirit Clan had long since reached an unprecedented level of fanaticism in their worship of Han Xuanji.
They spontaneously collected the finest materials such as star jade, warm spirit wood, and fluorescent stone. Led by the tribe's craftsmen, they began to meticulously carve a statue of Han Xuanji in the central square of their settlement, along the main path leading to the Dao Palace, and atop the scenic Ling Spirit Mountain. People worshipped him at all times.
When that magnificent Daoist aura swept over, all the Mystic Spirit Clan, regardless of gender, age, or cultivation level, stopped what they were doing.
They all looked towards the direction of the Dao Palace, a sense of awe welling up in their hearts.
