Chapter 673 Peak of the Great Dao

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Jiang Changsheng’s sermon at the Heaven Peak lasted for thousands of years. From a low-level sermon to a Zenith Heaven-level sermon, all the listeners benefited greatly. Those who were weaker had a clearer judgment and understanding of the Zenith Heaven Realm, while those at the high-level had also consolidated their understanding of the immortal Dao.

Even the Three Saints of the Immortal Dao had gained a lot from the sermon. This made them respect the Dao Ancestor even more. At the same time, they felt that their cultivation was insignificant.

After the sermon ended, Jiang Changsheng did not leave immediately. Instead, he began to clear up the doubts of the listeners. The Zenith Heaven Immortals began to ask him one by one and raised their doubts.

“Dao Ancestor, is there a fixed number of Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Immortals?”

“The Heavenly Dao is becoming stronger, and so the number of Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Immortals will naturally increase.”

“Dao Ancestor, is it better to cultivate other orthodoxies first before cultivating the Immortal Dao, or is it better to specialize in the Immortal Dao?”

“Everybody has their own destiny. Cultivating what suits you is the best. There is no suitable path for everyone. Don’t judge the past by the result. All laws are connected. The ultimate foundation is to comprehend the laws of the Great Dao.”

Most of the questions were very simple and had nothing to do with specific cultivation. However, some things could only be confirmed by the Dao Ancestor and make the listener make up their mind.

Seven days later.

Jiang Changsheng interrupted the Zenith Heaven Immortals’ questioning and said, “We should let the voice at the foot of the mountain ask questions. Everyone, please listen to the confusion of the public.”

Hearing this, the Zenith Heaven Immortals said in unison, “Okay.”

Soon after, an immortal cultivator at the foot of the mountain stood up and asked in a loud voice, “Dao Ancestor, may I ask if the Immortal Dao can only be ruled by the Human Race?”

As soon as he said that, countless people were in an uproar. The Zenith Heaven Immortals on the mountaintop frowned.

They calculated with their fingers and discovered that the inquirer was also from the Human Race, which made them even more speechless.

Jiang Changsheng answered, “Everything can transform into a congenital Dao Body. The Human Race merely seized the opportunity to possess the congenital Dao Body. However, the Human Race has to work harder than other races to cultivate. In my opinion, those who achieve Dao should abandon their racial views and pursue the Great Dao together. It might be difficult, but I hope that this day will come in the future of the Immortal Dao.”

Even though this answer did not satisfy everyone, it also caused them to fall into deep thought.

Jiang Changsheng knew that his words were too far-fetched. Karma and hatred could not be put down just like that. Where there were people, there was suffering.

He only wanted to give the myriad races of the Immortal Dao a direction. The process was difficult, but there was nothing impossible in the world.

Then, a second person at the foot of the mountain stood up and asked.

“Dao Ancestor, although cultivation must rely on the aptitude of your physical body, if your heart is set on the Great Dao, will there be a day when you can become an immortal?”

The inquirer’s cultivation was only in the Taiyi Earth Immortal Realm. He was asking on behalf of the people with lower cultivation.

Jiang Changsheng answered, “The Heavenly Dao has merit. When one’s heart is set on the Great Dao, the Heavenly Dao will naturally be able to see it. Even though becoming an immortal can be achieved with a single thought, one still has to work hard whether on the path of cultivation or the path of heart.”

This question and answer session lasted for a month, which was longer than the time the Zenith Heaven Immortals had.

Even though there was no help for the Zenith Heaven Immortals in terms of cultivation, they had a closer understanding of the thoughts of the public in the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm. The seemingly prosperous Immortal Dao had countless people worrying about cultivation.

They also realized the real purpose of the Dao Ancestor’s sermon.

“After this sermon, I hope that you can firm your Dao hearts in the future. I hope I can see you again during the next sermon.”

After Jiang Changsheng said that, he disappeared with the Divine Throne of the Great Dao Origin.

At the same time, a golden light descended from the sky. It was the light of merit. It swooped down and shone on Daoist Heaven Peak.

The Zenith Heaven Immortals and their disciples looked at Daoist Heaven Peak with envy.

This golden light of merit was so dense!

Most importantly, the Dao Ancestor had remembered Daoist Heaven Peak. Perhaps he would become a Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Immortal one day.

At the foot of the mountain.

Jiang Yi stood up and said to Jin Miaoyi, “We should go back.”

He was worried that the Jiang Clan would discover him, so it was better for them to leave as soon as possible.

Jin Miaoyi stood up and sighed. “I have benefited greatly from this sermon. The Dao Ancestor is clearly preaching to everyone, but I feel as if he is preaching to me alone. Only inheritance can give me such a feeling. Moreover, the Dao Ancestor’s inheritance is very brilliant.”

She wanted to say that he was better than Zhou Gua, but she was afraid of exposing her identity.

Jiang Yi smiled and did not reply. Instead, he immediately left with her.

At the same time, the Celestial Emperor, who was surrounded by the Immortal Gods, seemed to have sensed something. As he looked in the direction the two of them had left, a strange expression appeared in his eyes.

“It’s his aura…”

The Celestial Emperor thought silently. He had always felt guilty about Jiang Yi. He felt that he had not been a good father. Coupled with Jiang Yi sacrificing himself to fulfill the wishes of the Heavenly Court, he had always had an indescribable feeling towards him.

Among all his sons, he was most afraid of Jiang Yi. This fear did not stem from facing an enemy, but from guilt.

He was curious about what Jiang Yi, who had obtained a Great Dao Divine Weapon, had been doing recently. Unfortunately, he could no longer track Jiang Yi’s aura.

In the Purple Cloud Palace, Jiang Changsheng sat on the Divine Throne of the Great Dao Origin and looked into the void.

He originally wanted to continue with the question and answer session, but he sensed a very powerful aura approaching. It was even stronger than Divine Lord Zhou Gua.

He used the incense calculation function to calculate the other party’s strength value.

[499,990,000 Heavenly Dao incense points will be consumed. Do you wish to continue?]

Jiang Changsheng raised his eyebrows. He was only 10,000 Heavenly Dao incense points away from reaching the limit of the Eternal God Realm.

Generally speaking, it was difficult to reach the limit of one’s realm because a breakthrough would bring about a leap in strength. Most of the people who could reach the limit of their realm had no hope of breaking through.

It was very likely that this person had been stuck in the Eternal God Realm for a long time without the opportunity to break through.

However, Jiang Changsheng felt that something was amiss. The other party’s aura had vaguely exceeded the scope of an Eternal God.

He immediately looked into the void.

That person was outside the Immortal Dao Domain, standing on the Starry Sky Gate. The Starry Sky Gate was created by the Heavenly Court, and it contained the ability to transport objects through space. Its entire body was condensed like a red nebula, and it could accommodate hundreds of millions of living beings.

“Is he waiting for me?”

Jiang Changsheng thought to himself. As his gaze approached the other party, the other party suddenly opened his eyes and met his gaze, confirming his guess.

That person was the Celestial Venerable!

The Celestial Venerable stood on the Starry Sky Gate and raised his hand to meet Jiang Changsheng’s gaze. He waved his hand gently, and it was filled with provocation.

Jiang Changsheng raised his eyebrows. How arrogant.

To prevent any deception, Jiang Changsheng continued to use the incense calculation function. After ensuring that there were no other Eternal Gods or stronger existences lurking around, he immediately flashed to the Starry Sky Gatte.

The Ultimate Yang Divine Light floated in front of him like a bright sun. The divine light of the Divine Throne of the Great Dao Origin shone. The Celestial Venerable could only see Jiang Changsheng’s figure but not his true appearance, which made him raise his eyebrows.

The other party was very strong!

It could even be described as unfathomable!

The Celestial Venerable was not afraid. Instead, he was even more excited. As expected, he did not choose the wrong opponent. The Dao Ancestor of the Immortal Dao was an Eternal God!

“Dao Ancestor of the Immortal Dao, have you embarked on the path to the peak of the Great Dao?” The Celestial Venerable asked.

Jiang Changsheng replied, “I don’t know what the peak of the Great Dao is, nor do I know your background and motives.”

Even though his Karma Dao was powerful, he still could not fully understand the boundless world.

The Celestial Venerable laughed in high spirits and said, “I am the Celestial Venerable. I stepped onto the path of the peak of the Great Dao tens of millions of years ago. Once I defeat 100 peak Eternal Gods, I will obtain the recognition of the Great Dao. You are one of the opponents I have identified. A peak Eternal God is the top existence among Eternal Gods, and their strength might even exceed that realm. Dao Ancestor, you have proved your strength by easily suppressing Divine Lord Zhou Gua. However, since you do not know the peak of the Great Dao, it means that the Great Dao has not recognized you. Perhaps you should not have founded the Immortal Dao. What has been destroyed should stay destroyed. Don’t force it.”

When Jiang Changsheng heard that, he could not help but ask, “Could it be that the Celestial Venerable knows the Immortal Dao?”

“Of course. The Great Dao is long. Throughout history, there have been orthodoxies that ruled over the 3000 Great Daos. The Immortal Dao is one of them, but the Immortal Dao has long been destroyed. I have only seen the word immortal in an ancient ruin. Dao Ancestor, you should have obtained the inheritance of the Immortal Dao. There’s no need to restore the Immortal Dao. In the boundless world, you are not the only one who has obtained the inheritance of the Ruler Dao, but no one has succeeded. The destruction of a Ruler Dao is caused by the Great Dao. The real Great Dao is not the laws that pervade the void. It is merely a gift from the Great Dao to living beings.”

The Celestial Venerable spoke in an indescribable tone, causing Jiang Changsheng’s heart to sink.

It turned out that the Immortal Dao had indeed dominated the boundless world, and the end of the Immortal Dao was not a coincidence. The fate of the Great Dao was in the dark, and other powerful orthodoxies had encountered this calamity.

This made him have more associations with the Great Dao itself.

“It’s wrong to pursue such an orthodoxy! Our strength is within us. Dao Ancestor, let me experience your strength. You will watch me step onto the peak of the Great Dao!”

The Celestial Venerable laughed wildly. The three wisps of divine qi behind him exploded and dashed into the sky.

Jiang Changsheng knew that this battle was inevitable, so he wanted to see if the Celestial Venerable could bring him a survival reward.

“Should I put on an act or just press him to death?”

Jiang Changsheng felt conflicted and waited for the Celestial Venerable to launch his attack.

The Celestial Venerable leaped up and stepped on Jiang Changsheng. This step carried the momentum of destroying the Great Dao, causing the entire void to shatter and countless Great Dao spiritual qi to surge over. At that moment, the Zenith Heaven Immortals that were far away in the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm were shocked and turned to look at the void in unison.

In the depths of the forest, Divine Lord Zhou Gua suddenly stood up.

“This aura is…”

Rumble

The spiritual qi of the Great Dao surged wildly and produced a soul-shocking shockwave. The Celestial Venerable, who was surrounded by three-colored divine qi, widened his eyes in disbelief.

He stepped with all his might but was stopped by the Dao Ancestor with one finger.

He mobilized his divine power, but he could not move forward at all. The Dao Ancestor was like a firm wall of the Great Dao that could not be shaken.

The Celestial Venerable’s gaze landed on Jiang Changsheng’s face. At such a close distance, he still could not see Jiang Changsheng’s true appearance, but the Creation Origin Crown caused Jiang Changsheng’s face to radiate an indescribable sharpness.

It was a spirit that looked down on everything!

The Celestial Venerable suddenly dodged and returned to the Starry Sky Gate.

With just one blow, the dim void turned pale. Dark space fragments could be seen everywhere, similar to a mirror shattering, causing a vast and boundless rain in the void.

Jiang Changsheng said, “If the peak of the Great Dao is only this far, then I advise you to abandon this path!”
