Discussing the Dao in the Bifang Blessed Land: The Methods of the Middle-Grade True Spirit Lineages
When the Spirit Transformation Divine Lord preached, it was like listening to heavenly scriptures to low-level cultivators, but even Fourth Tier Golden Core True Person like Kong Wenxuan could understand some of the basics.
Even these superficial understandings were enough to significantly improve his cultivation and comprehension of the Fire Path. When Bi Sitong above, finished his sermon, Kong Wenxuan awoke from his comprehension and could clearly feel that his mastery and application of the "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" had improved considerably. He was even able to significantly enhance the speed of the "Sword Qi Thunderclap" and the sword techniques of "One Sword Gives Rise to Ten Thousand Laws".
The clan chief Kong Changgeng and his uncle Kong Yushuo, who were standing to the side, also clearly had something to gain.
In particular, his eldest uncle Kong Yushuo, specializes in the Way of Fire and only refines the "Crimson Fire Divine Sword," which is undoubtedly more in line with the "Way of Fire" explained by the Bi Sitong.
After the sermon ended, Kong Wenxuan could clearly see that his uncle Kong Yushuo, who had just broken through to the Golden Core Period, had completely stabilized his cultivation and aura, which had even become more profound and powerful.
Clearly, Uncle Kong Yushuo made the right choice by risking his still unstable Golden Core Stage cultivation to attend the Bi Household's "Advancement Celebration Banquet."
After the sermon, the "Discourse on the Dharma" phase begins.
Of course, the "discussion on the law" at the Bi Household's "promotion celebration banquet" had nothing to do with the Kong Household and other "Low-Grade True Spirit" Lineage; the participants were all "Middle-Grade True Spirit" Lineage from various counties in "Extended Net Moon Deer Prefecture".
Such as the cultivators of Lineage like the Geng Household ("Qinggeng"), the Yan Household ("Zhuyan"), the Huo Household ("Huodou"), and the Ming Household ("Chongming").
Moreover, the scale and level of the "Discussion on Law" held by such a "Middle-Grade True Spirit" Lineage are far greater and higher than the "Discussion on Law" held by "Low-Grade True Spirit" Lineage like the Kong Household and the Ya Household when they held their "Promotion Celebration Banquet".
The "discussions" at the Bi Household's "Promotion Celebration Banquet" did not include any low-level discussions such as Qi Refinement or Foundation Establishment. Instead, they only included discussions at three levels: the Third Tier Purple Mansion Stage, the Fourth Tier Golden Core Stage, and the Fifth Tier Nascent Soul Realm.
Moreover, this discussion was not conducted within the "Bifang Commandery City," but directly within the Bi Household's "Bifang Blessed Land."
As the "Discourse on the Law" began, the "Bifang True Spirit" manifested in the sky, raising its head and crying out, casting down a vast expanse of three-colored starlight that enveloped the various cultivators attending the banquet.
Kong Wenxuan and the others did not resist and were directly swept away by the starlight, entering the Bi Household's "Bifang Blessed Land".
The "Low-Grade True Spirit" Lineage create the "True Spirit Secret Realm," the "Middle-Grade True Spirit" Lineage create the "True Spirit Blessed Land," and the "High-Grade True Spirit" Lineage create the "True Spirit Grotto-Heaven."
As a fifth-rank "Middle-Grade True Spirit" Lineage, the Bi Household naturally created a blessed land, the Bifang Blessed Land!
This is Kong Wenxuan's first time entering the "True Spirit Blessed Land". With his current cultivation level and vision, apart from being able to see that the sky in this "Blessed Land" is higher, the land is wider, the area is larger, and the Spiritual Qi is more concentrated than that in the "Secret Realm", he cannot see any other essential differences for the time being.
Perhaps only when he advances to the Fifth Tier Nascent Soul Realm and leads his Lineage to become a "Middle-Grade True Spirit" Lineage, and also upgrades the Lineage's "Peacock Secret Realm" to a "Peacock Blessed Land," will the difference between them become clear.
At this time, the Bi Household had already designated a piece of land within the "Bifang Blessed Land" as a place for discussing the Dharma.
Those attending the banquet, including Kong Wenxuan, were seated outside the area where the "discussion of the law" took place, to observe the proceedings. Of course, Lineage like the Kong Household, which were considered "Low-Grade True Spirit," were assigned to corner positions.
The best spots for watching the battle are all occupied by Lineage like the Geng Household, Yan Household, Ming Household, and Kang Household, who are considered "Middle-Grade True Spirit".
Of course, the Lu Household members, including "Extended Net Moon Deer," occupied the best positions.
When the "discussion on the law" began, Kong Wenxuan also witnessed the strength and methods of these "Middle-Grade True Spirit" Lineage.
The Geng Household, known as "Qinggeng," is not good at fighting but excels at healing, though this is only relative to other "Middle-Grade True Spirit" Lineage of the same level.
During the "Discussion on the Law," the Geng Household cultivators directly planted some Spirit Plant, which then rapidly sprouted and grew. They then manipulated these Spirit Plant to fight and kill, unleashing considerable destructive power.
Kong Wenxuan still remembers that during the great battle of Qinggeng Commandery, the Geng Household pulled all the invaders into the "Spirit Plant Forest" formed by the "Ten Thousand Trees Boundless Origin-Securing Grand Formation". It was only by relying on their own strength that they killed a Fifth Tier enemy and ended that great battle.
This shows that the Geng Household of "Qinggeng" is quite capable and powerful. Otherwise, relying solely on alchemy and healing, they could not have grown and advanced to the level of a "Fifth-Grade True Spirit" Lineage.
After all, without sufficient combat power, even those "Rank Advancement Trial" would be difficult to pass.
Similar to the "Qinggeng" Geng Household is the "Dangkang" Kang Household.
The Dangkang Kang Household's Bloodline Divine Ability is "Harvest." They cultivate the power of earth and wood elements and are particularly skilled in spiritual farming and Spirit Plant. The spiritual grains, spirit medicine, and fruits they grow are not only popular in the entire "Extended Net Moon Deer Prefecture" but are also sold far beyond the state, making them quite famous in the entire Southern Region Vermilion Bird Domain.
Of course, this Bloodline Divine Ability is not good for combat, but the earth and wood elements cultivated by the Kang Household cultivators also allow them to cultivate and master various earth and wood element Law Technique, as well as Spirit Plant Technique.
When the cultivators from the Geng Household and the Kang Household clashed, their debates and battles were the most interesting.
The two sides planted various Spirit Plant, and then used their Law Technique and Spirit Plant Technique to quickly cultivate these Spirit Plant, creating two "Spirit Plant forests" on both sides of the battlefield. These forests and ecosystems then invaded each other, constantly clashing, fighting, and killing.
It looks quite interesting.
Second Kong Yujin, Third Aunt Kong Yuyin, Thirteenth Aunt Kong Yuqian, and other members of the Kong Household who cultivate the Way of Wood and the Way of Spirit Plant are the most fond of watching the debates and battles between the cultivators of these two schools. They can gain insights and learn a lot about the cultivation, mastery, and application of the Way of Wood and the Way of Spirit Plant from these discussions.
Compared to the Geng Household and Kang Household Lineage, who are not particularly skilled in combat and fighting, the cultivators of the other "Middle-Grade True Spirit Middle-Grade True Spirit" Lineage each have their own strengths in combat and fighting.
The "Bifang" Bi Household's heavenly Calamity Fire and the "Huodou" Huo Household's earthly Calamity Fire, the two families' flames clashed, showcasing various fire-based Law Technique and Divine Ability. This dazzled and captivated the fire-based disciples of the clan, including Uncle Kong Yushuo, Aunt Kong Yuqian, and Uncle Kong Yuyan, who all gained much from the spectacle.
The Yan Household "Zhuyan" are skilled in military affairs, capable of crafting various Law Artifact Law Artifact and Law Treasure, and adept at using them in battle. They can even simultaneously unleash multiple Law Artifact and Law Treasure for Law Treasure attack and defense, giving them a similar feel to the "Daoist of Many Treasures".
Kong Wenxuan and the others watched the battle of the Yan Household cultivators and were quite impressed, witnessing the power of many different Law Artifact and Law Treasure.
The cultivators of the Yan Household, known as "Zhuyan," seemed to be intentionally showcasing the methods and power of these different Law Treasure Law Artifact and treasures, often displaying them in various ways during battles. It didn't seem like they were trying to win through debate, but rather like they were demonstrating products.
After all, the Yan Household of "Zhuyan" had a wide business dealing in Law Treasure, which were sold far and wide, including Extended Net Moon Deer Prefecture. It was not surprising that they would intentionally display various Law Artifact and Law Treasure at such a "discussion on magic" in order to attract the attention and purchase of various people.
The remaining two families, the "Xuanniao" Xuan Household and the "Chongming" Ming Household, each had their own strengths.
The Xuan Household, known as the "Xuanniao," are masters of water magic, employing various water-based Law Technique and Divine Ability in battle. Their skills are of great reference and learning value to the Kong Household members, including the clan leader, second elder, and eldest brother, who have refined the "Black Water Talisman Slip" and "Black Water Divine Sword."
The Ming Household Chongming is skilled in "pupil techniques" and cultivates Yin and Yang energies. Although their cultivation differs from the Five Elements power cultivated by the Kong Household, the Ming Household cultivators' methods of drawing talismans and setting up formations in mid-air during battle are quite similar to the "Ten Thousand Laws Reach the Heavens" method that the Kong Household disciples cultivate and master when refining "Five Elements Talisman Slips." This has also been quite beneficial to the clan leader and others.
