Chapter 578 Nine Paragons Preaching

"I will be the first," said Qiyuan Emperor. Then, he waved his hand to manifest two cus.h.i.+ons: one for him and the other for w.a.n.g Wei. The others waited as Qiyuan sat and w.a.n.g Wei sat, with the latter closing his eyes.

"All lives are fundamentally divided into Qi, Essence, and Spirit. The cultivation process can begin by developing any of these aspects: it is a journey of self-discovery and transcendence, breaking the limit of the body, mind, and spirit."

w.a.n.g Wei did not hesitate to deploy his Spirit Particles and Future Buddha Self to improve his comprehension. At the same time, he had all his incarnations comprehend the sermon.

Since the incarnations had different lives and experiences, they might understand something he could not. Furthermore, having ten of them comprehending the same sermon was better than just him.

As w.a.n.g Wei listened to his Ancestor's preaching about the Dao, he saw the essence of cultivation rapidly laid out in simple terms before him. Then, the Qiyuan Emperor explained the Origin System to him from the Body Tempering Realm to the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

w.a.n.g Wei had to admit there was something unique about seeing the system's creator explain things to him. Even though he had entered the Duyi Realm and pushed the Origin System beyond its limit, there were many things he did not know or think about regarding it.

But now, with its creator explaining it to him, he finally understood.

After explaining the Origin System to the Quasi-Emperor Realm, the Qiyuan Emperor then explained his Origin, Dao and his comprehension after proving the Dao.

Once he finished, he explained in detail to w.a.n.g Wei how to enter the Empyrean and Paragon Realm.

After an unknown amount of time, w.a.n.g Wei opened his eyes, full of awe and respect. His slight pride after achieving his Dao Ancestor's strength was gone as he understood how far he was compared to the pinnacle of the cultivation world. He decided to be more humbled as his journey had just begun, and he had a long way to go.

Then, he checked on the Law Tree inside his Sea of Consciousness; he could see it was slowly turning silver. With a smile, he said: "Thank you, Ancestor."

Qiyuan smiled back before condensing a talisman: "This is my gift to you. These were all my thoughts when I created the Origin Systemincluding some previous drafts that I eliminated. Maybe, it can be beneficial to you."

w.a.n.g Wei gladly accepted. Qiyuan stood up from his seat to allow the Sword Empress to take the seat.

"Kid, are you interested in becoming a swordsman? It would be a shame to waste your talent."

"I'm sorry, but I think the swordsmen's path is too extreme."

w.a.n.g Wei was a little embarra.s.sed to be so direct, but that's how he felt. However, he could see the Desolate Emperor giving him thumps up in the back.

"I figure as much," she replied before condensing a talisman. "This is for your father: it contained my Sword Dao. Maybe it can help him."

w.a.n.g Wei respectfully accepted the gift.

"Although I cannot teach you about my Sword Dao, I can teach you about the concept of attack since swordsmen are the ultimate attackers."

Sword Empress then preached her Sword Dao, whose primary focus was on slas.h.i.+ng Heaven and Earth; her entire Dao involved how to properly destroy Heavenly Dao, who is the embodiment of myriad Daos.

However, her sermon also focused on the best way for a person's attack to reach its maximum potential and go beyond the limit. w.a.n.g Wei felt this sermon would benefit him throughout his cultivation journey.

w.a.n.g Wei opened his eyes, this time full of the sharpness of a swordsman. His Everchanging Dao Heart helped him a lot to better comprehend her sermon.

Sword Empress nodded her head before giving her spot to Battle Maniac.

"Your Dream Combat Technique is ingenious. So, I will use it to help you."

Then, w.a.n.g Wei found himself in a vivid dream. And in that dream, he spent eons doing only one thing: fighting. He fought countless races and unique individuals; he learned numerous fighting styles, battle applications, spells, environment a.n.a.lysis, and many other things that could help him increase his odds of winning in battle.

Once he opened his eyes, a terrifying battle intent emanated from his body; he felt like a new man as his Battle IQ and experience drastically improved.

"What a little monster," commented Battle Maniac with a smile. Then, he also condensed a talisman: "This is for Li Jun; he's a fine descendant."

w.a.n.g Wei quickly accepted. Then, Ancient Desolate came before him.

"I'm glad I've found a true successor for my scripture. Plus, you've pushed beyond its limit."

He was very happy with the concept of black holes in the Acupoints; this idea perfectly suited his scripture and elevated it to another level.

"I will preach to you about my Dao and the True Power Dao."

w.a.n.g Wei closed his eyes before controlling his excitement. He listened attentively, and his Law Tree rapidly turned silver in the process. He controlled himself to not break through in realms and ensure a solid foundation.

Once the sermon finished, w.a.n.g We were visibly shocked as he learned there was another gate after the Gate of Power called the Gate of Flesh, and Ancient Desolate had opened both of them.

However, his lips twitched after he realized the requirement to open and how difficult it would be to do so in the lower dimension. However, thinking about the reward, he became motivated.

He knew he could succeed since this sermon contained so many tricks or methods to temper the fleshall from the Ancient Desolate's experience.

"This is my gift to you," said the Ancient Desolate Emperor before handing w.a.n.g Wei a ring. "This contains enough Primordial Star Essence to condense the black holes for all your incarnations."

w.a.n.g Wei's eyes lit up as he carefully placed the ring away.

"It's my turn," said Turtle Sh.e.l.l. "What I'm going to teach you is the pinnacle of defense. If you can learn a tenth of my ability, a few things in the universe will be able to kill you."

w.a.n.g Wei was speechless as he realized another quirk of this Ancestor besides his fas.h.i.+on sense: bragging. Then, he closed his eyes to listen to the sermon and was truly speechless.

Turtle sh.e.l.l was truly the master of defense. His Dao involved pursuing defense to the extreme, similar to swordsmen. Moreover, the latter also knows how to use arrays, talismans, pills, and weapons for defense.

'This guy is the very definition of an unkillable c.o.c.kroach because of his defense,' thought w.a.n.g Wei after opening his eyes.

"You just thought of something insulting, didn't you?"

"Of course not, Ancestor. This disciple would never do such a thing," w.a.n.g Wei replied with a righteous face. "I have too much respect to do such a thing."

.

"Hmm, maybe I'm a little too sensitive. Here is my gift to you."

w.a.n.g Wei received a book that contained a technique to use his Acupoints as a defensive array; this was the idea he had after seeing Tong Ruobing. He did not ask how Turtle Sh.e.l.l knew what he wanted to do; he now understood the power of these people was unfathomable. He was just happy he did not have to waste time creating the method himself.

"I will teach you about the Five Elements, Professions Dao, Divination, and Yin-Yang Calculations," said Misceleanous Emperor. He did not waste time before preaching, and w.a.n.g Wei listened attentively.

w.a.n.g Wei felt his understanding of all the professions deepened.

Then, he learned a lot about divinationwhich was his specialty. Yin-Yang Calculation was the same as divination but used another system similar to mathematics.

Through a diagram made of symbols, a person can calculate all the secrets or knowledge between Heaven and Earth. Of course, the limitation is based on the user's skills and strengths.

The Miscellaneous Emperor taught him how to use both divination and Yin Yang Calculation to get the information he wanted.

"Thank you, Ancestor," said w.a.n.g Wei with a bow.

"No problem. This is my gift to you."

w.a.n.g Wei received another talisman which contained a unique formation that could convert Innate Qi into Immortal Qi. It was unfortunate he could only use the formation inside his Divine Sea. Otherwise, it would greatly benefit his future plans.

"This is another gift for that girl Yan Liling," he added before giving him another talisman.

The h.e.l.l Judgment took the seat afterward and preached without saying much. In the midst of comprehension, w.a.n.g Wei frowned slightly before continuing. He could sense that the h.e.l.l Judgment Dao was a unique one that combined Good and Evil, the Soul, and even Yin and Yang, and other things.

After preaching, h.e.l.l Judgment asked: "Did you notice?"

"Yes," nodded w.a.n.g Wei. He realized a flaw on his cultivation path: his soul. Since he had such a powerful soul and never had to worry about cultivating it, he also barely used it in most of his battles.

As such, his soul was not used to its full potential. The h.e.l.l Judgment pointed out this flaw to him and showed him a path on how to use better use his soul.

w.a.n.g Wei looked at his Law Tree that had turned silver; he could also sense the Soul Law added in addition to the Five Elements.

Afterward, it was the Shadow Ruler.

"My Dao is not really suited for you. But, hopefully, you can learn something from it."

The latter preached about Shadow Dao. And when w.a.n.g Wei opened his eyes, he had some confusion on his face but did not immediately ask.

"This is for you. You are an anomaly, so after proving the Dao, w.a.n.g Ju would only inherit 50% of your power. However, she could inherit between 50 to 70% with this method."

w.a.n.g Wei took the talisman with respect.

"It's finally my turn," said Rainbow with excitement. "I pursue the pinnacle of speed. I can tell you that although I cannot defeat any of my seniors, none of them can catch me if I want to run away."

The others' lips twitched slightly as they felt slight shame; she was correct.

w.a.n.g Wei listened to the sermon with fascination. She taught him to use different methods to increase speed. Whether it was through controlling light, thunder, gravity, bending s.p.a.ce-time, or even the concept of the speed of the mind: she used all of them to increase her speed.

After opening his eyes, w.a.n.g Wei could not help but ask: "Are you also a Paragon?"

"Of course."

"How? Time-wise, it did not make sense."

He could feel that both Rainbow and Shadow Ruler's Dao were on the same level as the others. But these two proved the Dao after the Devil Era. He did not understand how they had enough time to become Paragon.

Rainbow did not answer but looked at Qiyuan.

"Something happened that we needed more powerful individuals. So, we paid the price to call future Emperors of the sect to summon them from the future," explained Qiyuan.

"These two came and became Paragons in the past."

"Did I come?" asked w.a.n.g Wei.

"No," replied Qiyuan with a smile. "We could not summon anyone past the ninth Emperor."

"That's a shame."

"Not really. It's good you don't have to bear the Karma of our failure," replied Qiyuan with a sigh.

"A few more things before you leave. Do not kill all the partic.i.p.ants before the Heaven Will Battle. I know you have the strength, but don't do iteven secretly."

"Oh, why?"

w.a.n.g Wei never planned to do so since there would be too many complications. But there seems to be something else.

"The Lower Dimension has changed, preventing forces in the upper dimension from interveningincluding Paragons. The Myriad Emperor World will become the center of an upcoming change. So, before that, a Son of an Era will be chosen."

"You mean me?"

"Yes. Heavenly Dao will definitely choose you. However, if you kill the other partic.i.p.ants, your actions will be seen as an act of weakening the world, thus forfeiting and decreasing your chance of being chosen.

"Now, I understand you might not care about the t.i.tle of Son of an Era, but the destiny it provides will benefit you until you become an Empyrean. Don't waste such an opportunity because of how you feel about Heavenly Dao."

"I see," nodded w.a.n.g Wei. Although he did not like Heavenly Dao, he knew the trial was nothing personal. Furthermore, he could control his emotions and do things he did not like for the sake of benefit.

"Thank you for your guidance," said w.a.n.g Wei before giving these nine a deep bow. Their help today will benefit him throughout his entire life. Then, w.a.n.g Wei left the secret realm.

While alone, the h.e.l.l Judgment Emperor said: "Are you sure he's the one we are waiting for? This kid has too many secrets."

"He's right," added Miscellaneous Emperor. "Forget all the taboo aura on him, I can sense the aura from the Prehistoric World from him. And there is a 90% chance he is the reincarnation of the Myriad Devourer."
