Becoming a Saint
Early morning, the sun had just risen.
Above the Dao-Seeking Academy, purple qi qi rose from the east, stretching for Wanli, followed by rays of light that enveloped the Dao-Seeking Academy and Dao-Seeking City.
This scene stunned countless cultivators who had risen early to practice.
Everyone stood frozen in place, staring at the strange phenomenon in the sky.
Before everyone could react, countless birds flew in from all directions.
Finally, it circled around the Dao-Seeking Academy and let out a long cry. Countless demonic beasts Dao-Seeking City gathered as if on a pilgrimage, constantly bowing in the direction of the Dao-Seeking Academy.
Such a massive display of power finally brought the cultivators in the Dao-Seeking City back to reality from their shock.
"What exactly happened at the Dao-Seeking Academy?"
Inside the Shi Residence, the Four Ghosts of South Mountain murmured unconsciously upon witnessing this scene.
The old steward standing behind them said, "It must be some Great Sage sage from the Dao-Seeking Academy who has attained sainthood. It's a pity we are not qualified to go to the Dao-Seeking Academy to witness the Saint's arrival in the mortal world."
"Saint!"
Upon hearing those two words, the Four Ghosts of South Mountain's eyes widened in surprise, and a thought involuntarily surfaced in their minds: they really hadn't come to the wrong place.
In the Dao-Seeking City, there are many cultivators like the Four Ghosts of South Mountain, and many disciples in the city have put aside their current affairs and returned to the Dao-Seeking Academy.
Even the Dao-Seeking City disregarded the safety of Dao-Seeking City and returned to the Dao-Seeking Academy.
Inside the Dao-Seeking Academy, all the disciples stopped in their tracks and looked up at the sky. Some disciples asked their masters what was going on.
The elders of the Dao-Seeking Academy replied one after another, saying that the academy was about to produce another Saint.
Inside the villa of the nine chief ministers, the nine chief ministers looked at the somewhat unfamiliar scene before them, their eyes filled with envy.
Inside the Dean's courtyard, the Dean stroked his beard with a smile and said, "That child, Little Feng, is finally about to become a Saint. I haven't disgraced the name of the Dao-Seeking Academy, having nurtured a Saint during my term."
The elder standing beside him said, "It's fortunate that you gave him six months back then, instead of expelling him from the sect outright."
"Um?"
The dean didn't turn to look at the elder beside him; a single voice was enough to shut the man up.
This strange phenomenon lasted for Nine Heavens and nine nights.
On the morning of the tenth day, Chu Feng opened his eyes, slowly sat up, and sensed the Dao within his sea of consciousness, formed by the fusion of countless True Essence of the Great Dao of the Great Dao. A slight smile appeared on his lips.
My path can be summed up in one word: Dao.
After integrating the myriad truths of the Dao into one, Chu Feng realized one thing: his Dao was to be unique among ten thousand, different from the world.
As the saying goes, "The Tao gives birth to One, One gives birth to Two, Two gives birth to Three, Three gives birth to all things." All paths evolve from One. Therefore, one can deduce the true meaning of all paths back to the original One, which is the Tao.
In this way, one's own path can give rise to countless paths, and can also restrain countless paths.
This is the true, invincible path!
The system has opened the properties panel.
The moment the voice flashed through his mind, the system panel appeared in his mind.

After muttering something to himself, Chu Feng straightened his clothes and walked towards the door.
As soon as he stepped outside, a light drizzle began to fall from the sky.
Bing Yan and Princess Miao Yu, along with a group of disciples, stood in the courtyard awaiting Chu Feng Chu Feng. Upon seeing him, they exclaimed in unison, "We pay our respects to the Saint!"
No need for formalities.
Chu Feng smiled and said, "Today, I, the one who has attained Saint, have decided to preach for three days. All of you can listen to this through the spiritual rain and comprehend the Great Dao."
His voice wasn't loud, but it carried throughout the entire Dao-Seeking Academy.
Although everyone already knew that Chief Chu was about to become a saint, they were still extremely excited after hearing the news.
Even in a sacred place like the Dao-Seeking Academy, witnessing Great Sage achieve sainthood is a once-in-a-millennium or even once-in-ten-thousand-year event.
It is truly an extraordinary privilege for everyone to witness a Saint enter the world.
After Chu Feng finished speaking, he took a step forward and appeared under the Bodhi tree in the next second, where he began to preach.
The Dao-Seeking Academy was unusually quiet, with everyone listening attentively to Chu Feng's sermon.
Three days later, the rain stopped.
Within the Dao-Seeking Academy, many disciples, deacons, and elders broke through their limits after listening to this lecture.
On Miaomiao Mountain.
Xiao Chen, Cao Youqian, and other disciples who had grasped the True Essence of the Great Dao also made breakthroughs, each comprehending a portion of the True Essence of the Great Dao.
The same applies to Bing Yan, Princess Miao Yu, and the Great Sage Golden Wing.
Sensing the breakthroughs of the disciples at the Dao-Seeking Academy, the dean couldn't help but exclaim, "When one attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven; indeed, it is so!"
After Chu Feng finished his sermon, he gained a total of 220 points of the True Essence of the Great Dao.
"Ding! Given that the host has comprehended the essence of the Great Dao, 99 points of the True Essence of the Great Dao can be automatically converted into 1 Dao Resonance. The host's Dao Resonance +2."
Brilliant!
Chu Feng's lips curled up slightly upon hearing this. He hadn't expected to gain so much Dao Resonance from just one lecture.
He slowly stood up and said to the crowd, "The sermon is over. I must go and pay my respects to the Dean. You may all return now."
"Promise."
After everyone responded, they withdrew.
Chu Feng took a step forward, and the next second he appeared outside the Dean's courtyard.
Upon seeing Chu Feng, the gatekeeper disciple immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Chief Chu."
Before Chu Feng could speak, the dean's voice came from inside.
"Little Feng, come in."
"Yes, sir."
Chu Feng did not disrespect the Dean just because he had become a Saint. After all, he was now a teacher and had to set an example for his disciples.
He walked into the villa, crossed the front yard, and easily arrived at the back yard where the dean usually lived.
As soon as Chu Feng entered the courtyard, he saw the dean brewing tea, and the tea had just been brewed.
Seeing that the dean was about to ask for a remittance, he strode forward and said with a smile, "Sir, there's no need for you to do such a small thing yourself. Let me handle it."
"Ha ha."
Upon hearing this, the dean didn't mince words. He asked Chu Feng to wash the tea and pour it for him, jokingly saying, "You've become a saint now, how come you're still the same as before?"
Chu Feng smiled and said, "Sir, please don't joke. I will always be your student."
Dean: "Hey kid, have a seat."
"Promise."
Chu Feng poured tea for the dean before slowly sitting down and enjoying the tea with him...
