Master Dao's confidence lies in his own cultivation.
If Deng Chanyu is from the third tier and has chased the end of the second tier, then Master Dao is from the second tier and has chased to the end of the first tier. Ignite lights even living, are not his opponent, Zhenyuanzi such as old schools of saints, countless yuan-hours of hardship, now is just on a par with him.
Master Dao is weaker than the Heavenly Lord, but according to his estimate, the sages will not let Heavenly Lord become a saint.
Although he is not yet Buddha Shakyamuni, the essence of a sect leader has already emerged.
He is utterly indifferent to the contentious rivalry between Zhao Gongming and the Turtle Spirit; these are mere child's play. His goal has always been singular from the beginning to the end.
"Brothers and sisters, let us be honest." His voice has a strong magnetic quality as he straightforwardly said, "With the fall of Yang Mei Daxian, another Saint Position will arise in the boundless world of Honghuang. The Saint Position is for those with virtue."
Relationships deep and strong naturally have virtue.
All are disciples who can reach the heavens, their relationships are about the same, so what remains is to compare strength.
There are nine Jiejiao Immortals present on the spot, and Qiongzhiao and Beixiao can be disregarded.
Master Dao is the closest to killing two corpses and has the highest realm.
Yunxiao has already chopped off one body, ranking second only to Master Dao. The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit has broken through to the realm of Dazhen Jinxian, but the first corpse has not yet been chopped off. Chopping off a corpse is not as simple as "snap" and it can sometimes take thousands or even tens of thousands of years to prepare for it. The realm of the Golden Spirit is slightly lower, but it is also a qualified Saint.
Zhao Gongming is at the peak of Dazhen Jinxian cultivation, only one line away from breakthrough. Guiling is very close to the peak of Dazhen Jinxian, and Wu Dang Lao Nu and Wudang Xian are also high-level Dazhen Jinxian cultivators.
At this level, they are all powerful figures in any era. There are no rookies here, and the importance of the Saint Position does not need to be explained.
There had been some guesses before, but it's really unexpected that someone like Master Dao would openly state it like this.
Wudang Lao Nu is the most calm. She glanced at the expressions of her senior brothers and sisters: "Big Brother has intention for the Saint Position. Little Sister originally shouldn't have blocked him, but since this matter concerns a great deal, should we discuss it ourselves? This might be inappropriate."
The implication is that the Saint can decide with a single word, and whoever they say is who it will be. Discussing this sort of thing is meaningless.
Master Dao nodded lightly: "The sister's words are very true. Everything will be decided by the teacher. As an ignorant disciple, I am not qualified to ask for the Saint Position, but I just want to take advantage of this opportunity to teach the upper-level methods to my fellow disciples, resolve discord, and accumulate some blessings."
In summary, the main point is that he wants to teach the ascetics of Jiejiao Sect, raise their overall quality, and avoid excessive casualties that could bring the sect's reputation down.
Anything that benefits Jiejiao Sect, Guiling Holy Mother supports. She responded immediately, "Brother's words resonate with my thoughts."
Zhao Gongming is very smart when it doesn't involve his sister. As one of only two male disciples among the four direct disciples and four outer disciples, he understands Master Dao's calculations.
He asked: "Can the ascetics outside the sect also come to listen?"
Guiling Holy Mother spoke with disapproval, "Why should outsiders come?"
As soon as she spoke, she realized her mistake.
Yunxiao casually said: "Big Brother is thinking of using the merit of lecturing to chop off the second corpse, right?"
You see, originally, the Ancestor of Dao gave three lectures at the Purple Cloud Palace and then achieved unity with the Dao. The first thing that all the sages do after attaining their position as sages is to lecture to the inhabitants of Honghuang. Why would they be idle? It's because there is something to be gained from it.
Master Dao spoke calmly: "Outsiders from outside the sect can also come to listen."
Guiling Holy Mother thought for a moment. She had no great expectations for the Saint Position, her talent was limited, and the prospect of breaking through to Dazhen Jinxian was already faint, let alone chopping off one or two corpses.
She took a clear stand: "I support Master Dao."
Wu Dang Lao Nu also expressed her support.
The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit was deeply affected by the calamity, and recently, she often saw a scene of Wencheng being cursed and seven holes bleeding. As long as this persistent obsession does not dissipate, her cultivation will never improve. Now that she is given a Saint Position, it will do her no good but rather pull her deeper into a greater calamity.
"The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit wishes to lend a helping hand to Brother Dao."
Wuyun Xian also nodded in agreement.
The ones who haven't agreed yet are from the outer sect.
The Four Great Disciples.
Zhao Gongming looked at Yunxiao and nodded in support. Qiongzhiao and Beixiao chuckled a few times, but chose to remain silent when Yunxiao looked over.
So the matter was settled.
After more than ten days, a message of moderate significance spread throughout the primordial realm.
Master Dao will give lectures to the disciples of Jiejiao, and outsiders can also attend. Even disciples from Chuanzhua can come to listen.
To attain sainthood is not merely a matter of secluding oneself in some remote corner and focusing solely on one's own diligent practice. At least, this is not possible in the boundless world of Honghuang.
You must stand up openly and declare your desire for the Saint Position, and you must also endure numerous tests.
As the saying goes, "He who wishes to wear the crown must bear its weight." The Saint Position is no exception to this rule.
It may seem that the process of attaining sainthood by the Three Sovereigns, Nuwa, and the Western Two Saints is smooth and effortless. However, the reality is that their hard work lies behind the scenes, and they have also endured numerous tests.
The Great Proliferation is, to some extent, the Three Pure Ones atoning for the karmic debts they owed to the heavens and earth. For this, Lord Tongtian sacrificed the entire Jiejiao Sect. Nuwa was obstructed by Kanghui when she molded men from clay. The Western Two Saints still have the great enemy of the Demon Gate ahead of them, not to mention Pingxin Goddess, whose original existence was almost erased and who was nearly self-imprisoned before obtaining a position as a sage. It's not easy for anyone.
By now, it is even more difficult to obtain the position of a saint.
Master Dao will become Buddha Shakyamuni in the future. He will not lack wisdom and courage to expel Mi Le, a disciple of the Western sect, from Mount Ling.
At this moment, he stepped forward openly to challenge for the Saint Position.
Juanzhua cultivates the path of longevity, which is described in one word: "humble." It can also lower the sense of presence and avoid attention. This path is exceptional in avoiding calamities, but it is not suitable for lecturing in front of a large audience. All immortals would turn into old misers, and how would the boundless world develop?
The South Pole Immortal has no intention of stepping forward to take on the big responsibility. Even if he wants to compete, it wouldn't be now.
Yan Geng has been listed, and the Yuanzhoutian Sheng is in seclusion, not involved in these matters among disciples.
The disciples of Chuanzhua Sect discussed internally, and finally, Guangchengzi, a supreme Dazhen Jinxian, took many of his younger brothers to the Biyou Palace, ostensibly to listen to the teachings. In reality, they were there to cause trouble. Master Dao wanted to accumulate merit through lecturing and then chop off two corpses. Dream on!
Guangchengzi's Fan Tian Yin, the Ak *** Yin Yang Mirror, and the Huaxing Tianzun's newly acquired Hunyuan Jin Dou, all of the earliest spiritual treasures he can bring, are all brought along.
The arrival of the immortals from Chuanzhua is a serious matter, and we cannot let the immortals from Jiejiao laugh at us.
The Yuanzhoutian Sheng directly presented three yellow and red mulberry fruits to Guangchengzi, asking him to take them as gifts. A group of immortals marched away in a grand manner from the Kunlun Mountain, heading towards the Biyou Palace.
