Rewriting the Gods

Looking down at the crowd listening to the Dao, and sensing the Dao aura emanating from them that was several times stronger than before, Jiang Haofeng nodded in satisfaction.

"This sermon is now concluded. Ten thousand years from now, the Tai Xuan Palace will reopen, and you will all be welcome to come and listen to the sermon again!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Haofeng cupped his hands in greeting to Ancestor Hongjun, then withdrew his own Great Dao. In an instant, the nine-colored Xuan light in the void subsided, and the suppressed magic power of everyone surged out like a flood.

In an instant, over a million vast and powerful pressures rose up, and terrifying suction forces erupted from everyone, devouring the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth like a whale swallowing its prey.

The moment Jiang Haofeng withdrew his suppression, almost simultaneously, the million people listening to his teachings experienced a breakthrough.

Indeed, of the millions of immortals listening to the teachings on the field, apart from a few who had already reached the peak of Quasi-Saint and could not advance any further, or whose potential had been exhausted and were difficult to break through, the rest had all made breakthroughs.

It's just a matter of how big the breakthrough is.

Seeing this, Jiang Haofeng nodded in satisfaction.

During his sermon, Jiang Haofeng used his own Great Dao, through the Great Dao of Creation, to suppress the breakthrough opportunities of everyone present without compromising his own understanding.

After all, the benefits of listening to the Dao this time far exceed a breakthrough of one realm.

For beings above the Golden Immortal level, each breakthrough is extremely significant and takes a very long time.

This sermon will only last for a thousand years. Many talented people may grasp the opportunity for a breakthrough after listening to just two or three sentences. If they break through like that...

It's like they only heard two or three sentences of the entire sermon, which is a loss for them far greater than breaking through a new level.

Therefore, at the beginning of his sermon, Jiang Haofeng released his own Great Dao pressure. The nine-colored mysterious light that enveloped the surroundings was not just for show; its core function was to suppress everyone's breakthrough opportunity.

To ensure that everyone can fully hear the sermon.

This is something only Jiang Haofeng can do. It's not actually that difficult. Even a Heavenly Dao Saint could do it easily.

The difficulty lies in suppressing tens of thousands, or even millions, of immortals at the same time.

Only a sage who specializes in cultivating a specific Great Dao, such as a sage who cultivates the Great Dao of Creation, or a sage who suppresses the Great Dao, could possibly achieve this.

Others, even Great Dao Saints, may not be able to do this. For example, Hongjun cannot do this at present.

Currently, in the entire prehistoric world, and even in the entire chaos, only Jiang Haofeng can do this. Jiang Haofeng did not prove his Dao through the Great Dao of Creation, but he can nourish the Great Dao of Creation with myriad Daos to achieve the corresponding effect.

With Jiang Haofeng's Great Dao of Creation suppressing it, the efficiency of this sermon was maximized. Every single person who listened to the sermon listened to the entire Great Dao in its entirety, regardless of whether they understood it or not.

This surpasses the preaching of all other saints.

For example, when Jiang Haofeng listened to the Dao on Jin'ao Island, he actually only listened to a small part. After listening to the first half, Jiang Haofeng had the inspiration for a breakthrough, but he didn't listen to the second half at all.

Although Jiang Haofeng made a breakthrough, he ultimately missed many opportunities.

But this time it's different.

As Jiang Haofeng released his suppression, all the suppressed immortals on the field began to break through, and in the blink of an eye, the surrounding spiritual energy was completely devoured by the millions of immortals.

As the most perfect and vast world within chaos, it experienced for the first time a shortage of spiritual energy from heaven and earth.

The spiritual energy of the entire human world was in dire need of time, lasting less than ten breaths.

Jiang Haofeng's smile remained unchanged. With a gentle wave of his hand, the vast spiritual energy of heaven and earth that had been sealed within the Four Seas Eye was moved over.

In an instant, pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth, as if it were tangible, swept over, like sweet rain falling on the earth.

It directly replenished the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that was missing in the human world.

Jiang Haofeng used his own myriad paths to explain myriad kinds of great paths, addressing the shortcomings of each person's own path, and then used the Great Dao of Creation to suppress the opportunity for breakthrough, in addition to this timely wave of spiritual energy.

Three perfect conditions combined to create this groundbreaking era.

This is a golden age for all those who listen to the Dao at Tai Xuan Palace, and even more so for the entire human race!

After all, 99% of those listening to the Dao at Tai Xuan Palace are human; beings other than humans are barely a fraction of the population.

Moreover, the vast majority of human immortals have never heard a sage preach, and the few who have heard it did so several eons ago. The accumulation of several eons is far beyond what other immortals can match.

Almost instantly, more than a thousand peak Taiyi Golden Immortals began to break through, condensing the Three Flowers on their heads and proving the Great Luo Dao Fruit!
The number of those who broke through from Golden Immortal to Taiyi Golden Immortal was even greater, exceeding one hundred thousand.

Even those who haven't broken through are rapidly improving their strength. Many people are progressing from the early stage of Golden Immortal to the middle stage, then to the late stage, and finally to the peak at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, they have reached the threshold of Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Even more impressively, some soared directly from the early stage of Golden Immortal, passing through six realms in a row, and directly becoming powerful beings in the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal!
Moreover, these are only the immediate benefits; many more advantages have not yet been revealed.

A highly targeted sermon by a sage has benefits far beyond just a breakthrough in one's spiritual realm!
The effect of a sage's sermon is mainly reflected in three aspects: the present, the past, and the future. The present refers to resolving current confusion, while the breakthrough in one's spiritual realm is the experience of this benefit.

Once the problem in front of you is solved, your realm will naturally break through.

This is the most obvious benefit, and it's a benefit that can be seen without needing to go into seclusion.

The benefit of this past aspect is that this sermon points out the initial shortcomings of our own Great Way, which need to be gradually made up for later. This benefit can only be realized after time has passed.

The benefits in the future refer to the guidance for the path ahead, which is something that takes time to manifest.

For immortals, all three are extremely important. If compared individually, it is hard to say which is more important. However, if the past and future are added together and compared with the present, there is no doubt that the former is more important.

The greater benefits of this sermon will only become apparent over time!
It is no exaggeration to say that this was a grand feast for the human race!

Just like the sermon at Zixiao Palace three kalpas ago, the sermon at Zixiao Palace was a grand feast for the Xuanmen (Taoist sect). After the sermon at Zixiao Palace, the prehistoric world belonged to the Xuanmen.

This time, the Taigong Palace's sermon is the domain of the human race, and also the first leap forward for the human race!
It is no exaggeration to say that after this sermon, even if the subsequent thirty-nine sermons on the Great Dao are not held, the human race will still be the largest race since the beginning of time!
The number one clan, surpassing even the dragon and phoenix!

That's right. Although the human race has been a major race in the primordial world for nearly a kalpa, it has never been the largest race since the beginning of time.

After all, the human race was born after the saints had attained enlightenment.

Sages possessed too much of the primordial origin of the universe, and seven-tenths of the primordial origin of the universe was gone. How can later generations compare with the former?
At the peak of the Lich and Demon races, there were over a thousand Great Luo Golden Immortals. Not to mention the Dragon race in the Primordial Era, which had over a hundred Quasi-Saints and nearly two thousand Great Luo Golden Immortals!

As for the human race, when it was once revered as the number one race in the prehistoric world, it only had three hundred Great Luo Golden Immortals and a dozen Quasi-Saints!

In this era dominated by acquired spiritual energy, the human race is indeed a behemoth, but only in the era of acquired spiritual energy. In the era of innate spiritual energy, the human race is not even worth mentioning.

In terms of sheer numbers of Grand Luo Golden Immortals, any one of the Witch Clan or the Demon Clan could easily be divided into three or four human races, not to mention the Dragon Clan from the Primordial Era, who could easily be divided into five human races.

But from this moment on! The human race is the largest race in the primordial world, the strongest race in the history of the primordial world!
Even if the spiritual energy of heaven and earth occupied by the saints returns to the primordial world, and the ancient dragon race returns, the human race will still be the number one race in the primordial world!

The number of the more than 1,000 Great Luo Golden Immortals currently breaking through, plus the previous 400, and those who broke through after absorbing the knowledge gained from the lectures during their later seclusion, will easily exceed 2,000!
Seeing this, Jiang Haofeng couldn't help but smile, just like a hardworking farmer looking at the thriving crops in the field, feeling very satisfied.

Seeing this, Hongjun also showed a hint of surprise on his face. He thought to himself that as expected of the Great Dao of Wisdom, when it comes to expounding the Dao, the old Daoist is far inferior to the Ancestor of Man.

With his thoughts settled, Hongjun raised his hand and cupped his hands to Jiang Haofeng, saying, "Congratulations, fellow Daoist. After this sermon, the human race will surely become the number one race in the Chaos."

"Fellow Daoist, you are too kind. We cannot compare to your Xuanmen sect, where the Great Dao is flourishing and immortals are as numerous as clouds."

"Fellow Daoist is too modest. Although the human race is young, it has already shown its brilliance. Within ten great kalpas, it will surely surpass the Xuanmen!"

After saying that, Ancestor Hongjun spoke again: "Fellow Daoist, I will not disturb you any longer. I will come to listen to your teachings again in ten thousand years!"

"I'll see you off, fellow Daoist!"

"Fellow Taoist, please stay!"

······
After Hongjun the Ancestor left, all the Heavenly Dao Saints also took their leave. The first lecture at Tai Xuan Palace had come to a complete end. Jiang Haofeng didn't say much and turned back to Tai Xuan Palace.

Let them fully appreciate the content of this sermon over the next ten thousand years.

Jiang Haofeng did not go to find Zhisheng, even though this time he was talking about the Great Luo Path, focusing on the cultivation path from Golden Immortal to Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Zhisheng has already attained the Dao of the Primordial Golden Immortal, so logically he shouldn't need to use it.

But as mentioned before, the benefits of preaching are reflected in the three levels of past, future, and present. It is of no use to sentient beings in the present and future levels, but it has a lot of effect in the past level.

Zhisheng had already gone into seclusion to solidify her foundation, and Jiang Haofeng was too embarrassed to disturb her.

Well, it's been a long time since I went into seclusion and haven't traveled in the primordial world.

I remember the last time I traveled in the human world was when I was protecting the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, which was two eons ago.

This is a good opportunity to take a trip to the primordial wilderness and see the mortal world.

After all, the 40th sermon was aimed at ordinary people, so it's better to learn more about it.

Sometimes, the scenery seen through supernatural powers is not the same as what the eyes see.

In the primordial era, years were immeasurable; ten thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.

At Tai Xuan Palace, Jiang Haofeng once again arrived at the futon where he had previously given his sermon. With a sweep of his divine sense, the current situation of the human race instantly came to mind.

Not bad!

Jiang Haofeng nodded in satisfaction.

After ten thousand years of accumulation, the number of Great Luo Golden Immortals in the human race has reached two thousand.

That's right, a full two thousand Great Luo Golden Immortals!

To be precise, there are 2,200 Great Luo Golden Immortals. Originally there were 400, then 1,100 broke through on the spot, and then another 700 broke through in the following 10,000 years, for a total of 2,200 Great Luo Golden Immortals.

And this is only the current amount; Jiang Haofeng's sermon is not something that can be easily digested.

Ten thousand years is a vast expanse of time for mortals, but for beings above the Golden Immortal level, it is merely an insignificant period of time.

It will take at least five to ten lifetimes for the human race to roughly consume all the insights gained from this sermon.

By then, the number of Golden Immortals among humans will be at least over three thousand.

This is still a conservative estimate. After all, Jiang Haofeng can see that there are more than 500 people who have reached the edge of breakthrough. After 10 Huiyuan, it will not be a problem to gather 3,000 Daluo Golden Immortals.

In the past, when the Dao Ancestor preached at Zixiao Palace, only three thousand Great Luo Golden Immortals gathered, known as the Three Thousand Zixiao Guests.

Jiang Haofeng only expounded on the Great Dao once, and the number of Great Luo Golden Immortals of the human race reached three thousand, easily surpassing the most powerful dragon race in the history of the prehistoric world!
This result was even better than Jiang Haofeng had expected.

However, it wasn't too far beyond Jiang Haofeng's expectations. After all, this was the result of the human race accumulating countless years of foundation, which finally erupted in one day.

It may seem like just one sermon, but it is actually the accumulation of three great kalpas of humankind!
Moreover, before giving his sermon, Jiang Haofeng severed the connection between the human race and the prehistoric world, removed the shackles from the human race's head, and removed the limit on the number of immortals. This was combined with the most effective sermon in history.

It would be truly astonishing if it didn't have such a phenomenal effect!

Withdrawing his gaze, Jiang Haofeng moved his thoughts, and a majestic pressure rose up, with a vast nine-colored mysterious light illuminating the void.

Tai Xuan Palace opens!

In an instant, beams of immortal light rose from Zhonghuang Mountain, and millions of immortals broke through the air once again. Even those who had been in seclusion broke out of their seclusion immediately.

Millions of celestial lights rose up, and in the blink of an eye, countless immortals were once again suspended above the clouds!

"Greetings, Ancestor Haofeng!"

A million immortals bowed in unison.

"You don't have to be polite!"

"Thank you, Ancestor Xie Haofeng!"

After everyone was seated, many strange phenomena arose in the primordial world, and beams of vast immortal light crossed the chaos. Before long, the twelve futons in front of Jiang Haofeng were filled with people.

"I've met fellow Taoist!"

"Greetings, senior!"

"I've met fellow Taoist!"

"Fellow Daoists, please be seated!"

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the immortals of the Jie Sect, the immortals of Nuwa Palace, and the dragon clan immortals took their seats.

Jiang Haofeng waved his sleeve, and the second sermon at the Tai Xuan Palace officially began. This sermon would discuss the Dao of the Primordial Golden Immortal! (End of Chapter)
