Transcendent Time, Law Sacrificial Rites, Talent, the Tribulation of Lostness
Shaweiqi nodded in agreement, and then added.
"You are truly fortunate. Even in my Bronze Academy, a discussion among Middle Tier beings is a once-in-a-century event. To attend their class, one must book 20 years in advance and pay a considerable price to obtain this qualification."
"You have only just advanced to the Transcendent Realm, and you do not understand that what is a hundred years in the eyes of Middle Tier beings is like a year in the eyes of mortals—it passes in the blink of an eye."
According to our trial team's statistics over the years, it takes an average of about 500 years for Initial Transcendent Stage life form to cultivate to the perfect level 3.
Of course, everyone here is a pioneer and outstanding individual who has created this system, so it shouldn't take that long.
However, on the other hand, your system is not yet complete, your energy is not abundant, and your techniques are still in the experimental stage. According to our statistics, the difference shouldn't be too significant.
After listening to Shaweiqi's words, the Avatar couldn't help but sigh.
"Once you achieve transcendence, you'll find it hard to adapt to such a long lifespan. Even I find the class schedule at the Transcendent Academy in the Milky Way a little slow."
"This is normal. Middle Tier life forms often need hundreds of years to comprehend the laws during seclusion."
Middle Tier scholars at the Transcendent Academy typically take turns teaching in groups of five, resulting in a 20-year interval between classes.
Otherwise, some research experiments would require decades or even centuries of participation; such an arrangement would be more in line with the free time of Middle Tier beings.
The group of extraordinary beings managed to gain some rudimentary understanding of the timeline for the extraordinary stages when the two discussed it.
After everyone was seated, Lingli and Linghua continued to pour spiritual tea for the extraordinary beings.
More spiritual tea was poured out, filling the entire hall with a refreshing fragrance that invigorated the mind and calmed the spirit.
Shaweiqi spoke first.
"Let me go first. I already know a bit about your Cultivator System; let me first show you the path of our [Bronze Sacrifice] system."
Then the [Spirit-Suppressing Azure Heaven Tower] flew out from his body, and waves of praise echoed throughout the hall.
"Honoring the Spirit-Suppressing Azure Heaven Law-Establishing Priest, possessing great power, wisdom, and magical strength, who relieves suffering and subdues all demons and monsters."
"Honoring the Spirit-Suppressing Azure Heaven Law-Establishing Priest the Azure Nether Heaven, the Demon-Slaying Ship, and the Azure Heaven Tower, who establishes the principles of law and subdues all evil spirits and demons."
Subsequently, with the help of the sacrificial artifact, Shaweiqi's own laws manifested, and countless humanoid beings in the void offered sacrifices to him, with countless scenes of suppressing demons and monsters and subduing evil gods appearing.
The Sacrificial Rites rites corresponding to the laws of [Suppression] and [Absorption] coalesced and appeared before everyone's eyes.
These law Sacrificial Rites have some patterns and Law Runes are somewhat similar, but after the addition of special Sacrificial Rites in the [Bronze Sacrifice] system, their functions become more complex and comprehensive.
Lu Tianxin discovered that the [Beneath the Ravine] Law Runes he had comprehended were as small and rudimentary as fireflies compared to the bright moon.
The Avatar into Purple Mansion Perfected Person allows one to perceive even more. In addition to the conventional concepts of suppressing and controlling life, there is also the suppression and control of energy, bloodline, genes, information, laws, and soul, which are attacked and suppressed from different angles and in all aspects.
If such a broad concept has a weakness in any one direction, it will be exploited to create an advantage, ultimately achieving a suppressive effect.
Fortunately, this knowledge of Daoist practices only provides an understanding of the laws, giving this Sacrificial Rites a comprehensive suppressive power, rather than combining these related laws with the concept of array suppression, which would have already touched upon High Tier level.
In our current limited understanding, even High Tier Avatar possess at least one complete and self-contained law that prevents them from declining or weakening due to flaws in the laws applied during the Purple Mansion stage.
Thus, the two paths to achieving High Tier are either to continuously deepen and perfect one's understanding, or to gather multiple Golden Nature and integrate them to attain enlightenment.
Although special Sacrificial Rites rituals like those of Shaweiqi involve a wide range of aspects, they are far from forming a self-sustaining cycle, and have not even touched upon the possibility of cyclical feedback development. They are still at the level of increasing the scope of the concept of pressure.
However, even the mere release of the [Suppression] and [Absorption] Law Sacrificial Rites made these Initial Tier transcendents dizzy and unable to withstand the impact of so much complex and massive information.
Time passed slowly, and apart from his three disciples who were still diligently observing and memorizing, the others had closed their eyes and entered into a deep state of enlightenment.
Lingli and Linghua fainted upon seeing this meaning and were taken to a side room by Lu Tianxin.
Of course, Shaweiqi's teachings were not conveyed through oral discourse, but rather through a series of abilities, laws, Sacrificial Rites, and ceremonies, rather than through language or mental fluctuations—inefficient and easily distorted forms of communication.
Therefore, before reaching the level of touching the Great Dao of the Universe, they all use practical actions to explain their own cultivation.
After Shaweiqi finished his demonstration, it took the group of extraordinary beings a full two and a half hours to process it.
The Avatar asked several disciples.
"How about it? Did you write down how much?"
Lu Tianxin replied.
"This disciple is dull-witted and can only barely remember about 10% of it. As for truly understanding it, it will probably take quite some time."
Below, Chen Tianping and Ye Tianyi are both around 5-7%.
Other extraordinary individuals accounted for around 3-4%.
Savage was somewhat surprised to hear this and said to his Avatar.
"It seems that the Black Iron Human Race has a talent for comprehending gender. Even the most carefully selected Beginner Transcendent Stage in our Bronze Academy can only remember 1-2%. In particular, several of the True Person's disciples have extraordinary comprehension and have the potential to reach the Middle Tier."
Only a select few exceptionally talented individuals within my Bronze Academy, who invest heavily in rare and precious treasures, can surpass 10% of the pool.
This is one of the reasons why we hold Middle Tier lectures once every 20 years; the demonstrations of these skills alone are enough for them to comprehend for over a decade.
"Your Excellency Shaweiqi is too kind. My disciples were born under the Transcendent System and are indeed somewhat gifted."
The fear is that their character isn't up to par, and they'll succumb to the Tribulation of Lostness during their ascension to the Purple Mansion.
I take this opportunity to Avatar and recount the circumstances of the Tribulation of Lostness to all of you extraordinary beings.
"The so-called Tribulation of Lostness is when one's mindset is not in sync with the surge of power and cannot control it, lacking sufficient experience to overcome numerous temptations and wholeheartedly climb towards a higher path."
You all need to understand your own hearts as soon as possible, especially Tianxin, Tianping, and Tianli. You three were all taken in by me when you were in your twenties or thirties. Now that you have gained such great power, you must guard against arrogance and impetuosity so that you will not be tempted by external demons.
