Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 376 Discussion on Taoism and Wang Teng's Attitude
The sheer number of Wang Teng among the younger generation is astonishing enough; he has overshadowed everyone else in the younger generation.

Wang Teng alone was enough to overpower the Northern Plains and be called the Northern Emperor, and he also overpowered the younger generation of the Eastern Wilderness, which meant that when he was in the Eastern Wilderness, the younger generation of the Eastern Wilderness did not even have a chance to fight against Wang Teng.

Now that Wang Teng has arrived in Zhongzhou, in the battle of the underground palace, he has crushed everyone of the same realm. Even the top experts and the Dao-Slaying Kings were ruthlessly crushed by him at the same realm.

To put it bluntly, wherever Wang Teng goes, he is invincible.

How could such strength not alarm them?

That's why the Emperor of Great Xia made such a remark.

One Wang Teng is already suffocating all sides; if two more Wang Tengs appear, then the others will never have a chance to rise to the top.

Hearing the Great Xia Emperor's sentiments, the Great Xia Imperial Uncle below hesitated to speak.

He really wanted to say that in the distant Eastern Wilderness, there was another person who was equally amazing and outstanding. After Wang Teng left, this person only made a slight move and made the other young people in the Eastern Wilderness afraid to show their faces. They even went into seclusion to break through their cultivation, rather than fight that person.

There were even more peerless experts after that prodigy, but the Great Xia Imperial Uncle did not know exactly how powerful they were, because he had not experienced the opening ceremony of the Supreme Holy Land.

He wasn't even sure how strong that prodigy really was; he could only guess that he was probably about the same as Wang Teng—because with Wang Teng there first, much of the information about that prodigy was delivered relatively late.

Especially now that Wang Teng is shining brightly in Zhongzhou, everyone is paying more attention to him, and they are no longer as concerned about other prodigies.

Most importantly, Qi Hao has almost no history of making a move in public. The only time he made a move was against Xia Jiuyou. He has never been seen making a move by anyone else.

Therefore, people from other places had no idea how strong Qi Hao was. Only those who had been to the Eastern Wilderness and met that unruly red-haired youth knew just how powerful that unruly red-haired youth really was.

The Great Xia Imperial Uncle had previously visited the Eastern Wilderness, so he naturally knew of Qi Hao's strength, but after thinking about it, he still didn't say anything.

The Emperor was already so shocked by Wang Teng. If he knew that there was another genius in the Eastern Wilderness who was similar to Wang Teng but had an even stronger background, he would probably silently question his own existence.

"Yes, Wang Teng is too dazzling. The moment he appears, all the other geniuses in the region are overshadowed." The Great Xia Imperial Uncle sighed earnestly.

This is what he means.

It was because he had witnessed Wang Teng's skills that he was able to gain such a profound understanding.

Wang Teng's strength was beyond what others could imagine. He had once faced Wang Teng at the same level in the underground palace. He did not make a move at the time, but he could still feel the despair-inducing power. If he had really made a move then, he probably wouldn't have been able to withstand even one or two moves from Wang Teng.

Later, when he sat down to discuss the Dao with Wang Teng, listening to Wang Teng's insights on cultivation, he became increasingly confused about his original guesses.

Wang Teng's strength was overwhelming and precipitous compared to his contemporaries. What others could see, even if they risked their lives, was only a small part of the path Wang Teng had walked.

"Fortunately, our Great Xia Dynasty has not offended such a powerful figure, and his relationship with the Great Xia Dynasty is quite good! If he grows up, the Great Xia Dynasty will benefit in the future," the Great Xia Emperor said.

The Great Xia Imperial Uncle nodded upon hearing this, as he shared the same opinion. He was also very fortunate that Wang Teng had a good relationship with their Great Xia Dynasty.

In this situation, they don't need to do anything, nor do they need to compete with a peerless genius like Wang Teng in the same era. As long as they maintain this relationship, even if their Great Xia Dynasty fails on the road to becoming emperor in the future, they can still gain great benefits based on their relationship with Wang Teng.

On the other side, Wang Teng indeed stayed in the Great Xia Dynasty for a period of time.

During this time, he did not hold back and shared many of his cultivation experiences.

For him, these experiences are all paths he has walked, and he is never worried that others will follow the paths he has walked and surpass him.

He walks directly in front, pioneering the way, so how could he possibly worry about others overtaking him?
Moreover, Wang Teng was satisfied that these experiences could help others become stronger.

He has never been one to keep good things to himself. As long as it doesn't affect him, Wang Teng never minds sharing these things with everyone.

For example, if these cultivation experiences can help others become stronger without affecting him, Wang Teng wouldn't mind sharing them, and he wouldn't mind sharing them with everyone.

Because if Wang Teng remembered correctly, the world of Shrouding the Heavens was not just about darkness and turmoil.

The dark turmoil caused by those ancient supreme beings and ancient clans is relatively easy to resolve, but the more fundamental issues are much more difficult to address.

Above the heavens lies the Dark Plateau, and even the Immortal Realm is not necessarily as safe as it seems now.

The darkness has never dissipated; it's just that they haven't yet come into contact with the deeper darkness.

If given the opportunity, Wang Teng would naturally want to cultivate more powerful individuals. That way, if a deeper dark upheaval were to erupt in the future, and he were to go alone to suppress the dark turmoil, at least there would be someone in the rear base to guard it.

Moreover, the more powerful individuals there are, the more people will be able to fight alongside him in the future, and there won't be a situation where he has to suppress the dark turmoil alone.

Although Wang Teng is very strong, if there is any hope, who would be willing to fight alone?
Every strong individual he currently favors and cultivates could become his comrade-in-arms in the future, and could potentially fight alongside him against the source of darkness.

Therefore, Wang Teng was naturally very generous.

However, his generosity made even the Great Xia Prince Xia Yiming somewhat unsure of what to do.

"Brother Wang, how have you been lately?" Xia Yiming couldn't help but ask.

It wasn't that he didn't want Wang Teng to do well, but rather that Wang Teng had imparted so much experience to the Great Xia Dynasty during this period.

This level of instruction could even be described as a master guiding a disciple in their spiritual practice.

However, Wang Teng and they did not have a master-disciple relationship; the only bond between them was that vague human connection.

The meaning of "human relationships" can vary depending on who says it.

To some people, human relationships are a vague and intangible thing, something they might forget the moment they say it. But to others, they are incredibly important. Take Wang Teng, for example.

He said he owed them a favor, and then immediately came to repay it. He preached in the Great Xia Dynasty, teaching them such profound things, and imparted all his cultivation experience to them without reservation.

In Xia Yiming's view, many of the things mentioned were the most valued and treasured possessions of a cultivator.

So Xia Yiming felt something was off. He even had a sense of absurdity, as if Wang Teng was entrusting his son to the care of the young emperor of their Great Xia Dynasty, as if he were passing on all his cultivation experience and life insights to his junior before a major event.

“I’m doing very well lately. I’ve made progress in my cultivation and have gained many insights. What’s up?” Wang Teng asked.

The sermons he gave during this period actually benefited him greatly.

When you know many things in your heart, you may not have formed a systematic theory. You may just know these things, but you haven't summarized or generalized them. When you look back at them later, they may still be somewhat unclear.

However, when he expresses these things and organizes them into language to share with others, he will consider whether others can understand what he is saying. He will subconsciously summarize his insights to make it easier for others to understand.

This process is also a process for Wang Teng to examine his own situation. When he shares his insights with others, he will also stop from time to time to verify whether his thoughts and words are in perfect agreement with his actions.

For him, this was also a form of spiritual practice and a way to improve himself.

However, Xia Yiming on the other side seemed to think differently. His expression was somewhat strange, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"What's wrong, Brother Xia? We've known each other for so long, is there anything you're embarrassed to say? Just say what you want to say," Wang Teng said with a light laugh.

"It's nothing, it's just that every time I listen to your sermons, I always feel like a disciple listening to a master's lecture. And you always explain things in such detail, as if you're afraid we won't understand, as if you're making arrangements for us..."

Xia Yiming spoke, carefully choosing his words to avoid saying anything inappropriate that might displease Wang Teng.

Although he tried to be subtle, Wang Teng was a man who immediately understood the meaning behind Xia Yiming's words.

"Hahaha, Brother Xia, you actually have this feeling!" Wang Teng couldn't help but burst into laughter.

“However, after your reminder, I suddenly have the same feeling.” Wang Teng stroked his chin and pondered. “I rarely teach others in this way. I only do this when I returned to the Wang family and preached to the dozen or so people in my Gongdao Hall.”

Hearing Wang Teng's words, the Imperial Uncle of Great Xia felt a warmth in his heart.

Doesn't this mean that Wang Teng considers them as his own people?
“If Brother Xia feels it’s inappropriate, then I’ll be more careful next time we preach.” Wang Teng has always been open to suggestions. If others feel it’s inappropriate, then as long as it doesn’t affect the principles, it’s not difficult for him to make slight changes.

"No, no, no, I just suddenly had a feeling, so I couldn't help but say it. Brother Wang's way of expounding the Dao is very good and easy for us to understand. I have never heard anyone explain the insights and experiences in cultivation so profoundly, yet in such a simple and easy-to-understand way."

Xia Yiming quickly spoke up.

He was speaking from the heart. Even though he was a prince of the Great Xia Dynasty and had been guided by many famous teachers throughout his cultivation journey, including some extremely powerful figures who guided his cultivation and others who had a thorough understanding of the ancient scriptures, none of them could make him feel as deeply as Wang Teng was saying now, both profound and easy to understand.

“Okay, then I’ll stick to this style from now on.” Wang Teng nodded.

He has only told these people about a few realms so far. Compared to the major realms he has cultivated, there are still one or two realms that he hasn't had time to tell them about yet.

Hearing Wang Teng's words, Xia Yiming and the others were filled with excitement.

For them, Wang Teng's sermons were no less than a thoroughly enjoyable spiritual practice. Every few words he uttered were like profound truths, awakening them to a sudden enlightenment.

Sometimes they may understand certain principles, but they haven't acted on them or realized the other side of the story before. Only after Wang Teng reminded them did they suddenly realize their shortcomings.

Two weeks later, Wang Teng breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're really generous, kid. Those insights you shared would definitely cause a lot of people to fight over them if they were in the outside world. Some of them are things that even ancient emperors could comprehend, but you're so generous as to share them with others directly." Even Chaotic Ancient Emperor Weapon couldn't help but say.

He had witnessed everything Wang Teng had experienced in the Great Xia Dynasty during this period.

When he saw Wang Teng sharing his cultivation experience with others without reservation, he did not stop him. Only after Wang Teng finished speaking did he feel compelled to offer his comments.

"It's just cultivation experience. If it can make everyone like a dragon, then what does it matter if I have to pay some price? Anyway, paying these prices won't affect me."

Wang Teng spoke calmly, saying that sharing his experience with others would have no impact on him.

"No wonder that Great Accomplished Holy Body in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land admires you so much!" the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Soldier exclaimed.

Among the forbidden lands of the ancient wilderness, the one who admired Wang Teng the most was the Great Accomplishment Holy Body. That person truly treated Wang Teng as a young master and gave him plenty of face in public. Even a dignified Great Accomplishment Holy Body would bow his head and respectfully address Wang Teng as "Young Master" when facing him.

It's easy to imagine how much that person admired Wang Teng.

And everything Wang Teng did did indeed win that person's approval.

“What you said, young friend, is truly enlightening. For us, this period of time has been less about discussing the Dao and more about listening to your teachings. What you said is no less important to us than studying ancient scriptures.”

The Imperial Uncle of Great Xia spoke earnestly.

Xia Yiming and the other two young men nodded frantically.

What Wang Teng said was very beneficial to them. Although they hadn't put it into practice yet, they believed that as long as they could implement even a little of what Wang Teng said, it would be a tremendous opportunity for them.

"Young friend, you have contributed so much to our Great Xia Dynasty. We are naturally embarrassed to listen to your opportunities for nothing. If there is anything you can do to help, please let us know. As long as it is within our power, we will do our best!" The Great Xia Imperial Uncle said earnestly.

Wang Teng was waiting for those words.
