Primordial Era: Exceptional Comprehension, Destroying Buzhou Mountain at the Start

Chapter 92 The Dao Domain System, A Self-Existing Realm, Symbiotic Spirits, Nine Realms of the Dao Domain, The Dao Transmission Stele

"Rune System - First Realm - Transforming Runes into Dao. This realm involves comprehending the Great Dao and subdividing it into individual runes. For example, the Great Dao of Fire contains characteristics such as burning, temperature, heat, and annihilation. Each aspect of the Great Dao is comprehended and transformed into corresponding runes."

"Rune System, Second Realm: Transforming Characters into Runes. Combining numerous intricate basic runes into a relatively complete Great Dao Rune."

"Runic System, Third Realm: Transforming Runes into Texts. This involves transforming individual runes, which evolve from the Great Dao, into unique texts. Each text elucidates and describes a particular Great Dao."

"These three realms represent my initial creation and preliminary division of the rune system. How it evolves and becomes more complete is up to you."

Speaking of which, Di Qing had also studied the rune system for a long time. He felt that the core of the rune system was also a system formed by the evolution of writing. However, the core of runes is to condense runes into the Great Dao, and to condense the Great Dao into runes. In contrast, the Dao of Literature uses writing to evolve articles, to evolve various mysteries and to expound the Great Dao.

It can be said that the two have similarities. But because of this, Di Qing has been unable to perfect the rune system for a long time. He finally decided to pass this system on to outsiders, hoping to improve it with the wisdom of all living beings.

Even if all living beings cannot perfect it, their wisdom can propagate this system and accumulate its various changes. This will allow Emperor Qing to rely on these changes to perfect the system more quickly.

He watched as many cultivators fell into deep thought, absorbed in the rune system.

Di Qing then described the third system: "The third system is the Dao Domain System. This system is relatively complete, and its core is just like the Dao Field and Blessed Land that we are familiar with. One cultivates a Dao Field and a Blessed Land. Within the Blessed Land, one evolves one's own Great Dao and one's own strength. Ultimately, one merges oneself with the Dao Field into one."

"Dao Domain System, First Realm, Fusion Realm. This realm allows one to choose a place, a spiritual root, a mountain, or a divine material. Then, using the method of refining, one refines the spiritual root and the mountain, merging one's essence, energy, and spirit into the spiritual root and the mountain."

"Dao Domain System, Second Realm, Transformation Realm. The core of this realm is to completely merge the spiritual root and mountains and rivers into oneself, making them as one with oneself. To make these spiritual root and mountains and rivers as one's own incarnation."

"Dao Domain System, Third Realm, Symbiotic Realm. The core of this realm is to gradually form a special symbiotic relationship between oneself and the spiritual beings one has fused with. This realm allows the innate talents, supernatural abilities, origins, and aptitudes of the spiritual beings one has nurtured to be imprinted on oneself."

"Dao Domain System, Fourth Realm, Symbiotic Realm. This realm allows one to cultivate a spiritual creature that coexists with oneself. As the cultivated spiritual creature grows, it feeds back to the self, enhancing the self's cultivation. Conversely, the self's cultivation and improvement also feed back to the spiritual creature's transformation. The stronger the symbiotic spiritual creature, the stronger the resulting transformation. Correspondingly, the self's cultivation and training requirements also increase."

"Dao Domain System, Fifth Realm, Fusion Realm. This realm merges the Dao one cultivates with the spiritual beings that coexist with it. From this point on, the spiritual beings, the self, and the Dao become a unified whole."

"Dao Domain System, Sixth Realm, Dao Domain Realm. Since the symbiotic spiritual beings contain the Dao they cultivate, then with cultivation, the imprinted Dao will expand. Gradually, it will imprint and comprehend the place where it is located, so that every place contains this Dao. In the end, a Dao Domain will be formed, just like a Dao field nurtured by heaven and earth."

"Dao Domain System, Seventh Realm, Domain Integration Realm. As the Dao Domain expands, one gradually imprints oneself within it, eventually becoming one with the Dao Domain. This allows one to transform into a world, within which one is the ruler, one is the Heavenly Dao."

"Dao Domain System, Eighth Realm, Dao Expansion Realm. Once the self and the Dao Domain become one, the scope of the Dao Domain will gradually expand. The wider the scope, the stronger one's own power, and the more formidable the strength within the Dao Domain."

"Dao Domain System, Ninth Realm, Heavenly Dao Realm. This realm is about expanding one's own Dao Domain to every corner of the Primordial World. One replaces the myriad Daos imprinted throughout the Primordial World with the Great Dao one cultivates, ultimately turning the entire Primordial World into one's own Dao Domain. Within that Primordial World, you yourself are the Heavenly Dao, the ruler, and control over everything in the Primordial World."

"This Dao Domain system, though complete and divided into nine realms, is merely a figment of my imagination. Achieving it would be extremely difficult. However, if one were to truly transform the entire Primordial World into one's own Dao Domain, the strength would be unparalleled in the Primordial World."

"Secondly, the Dao Domain system has a weakness: if the spiritual creature you cultivate is damaged, you will also be damaged. Moreover, you are strongest when you are within your own Dao Domain. If you leave your own Dao Domain, your strength will decrease. Finally, if the spiritual creature you choose to cultivate is special, it will be difficult to move your Dao Domain. For example, if you choose a mountain or river for comprehension, then how to move that mountain or river is your own problem."

Di Qing spoke of the various aspects of the Dao Domain system, its power, and its many shortcomings.

As Di Qing finished speaking, the stone tablet flew out again and landed outside Buzhou Mountain, where it carried the three cultivation systems.

Many cultivators gazed intently, their minds stirred, and they all fell into deep contemplation. Of the three cultivation systems, the faith system was the most incomplete, the rune system was next, and the Dao Domain system was the most complete, but it also had many flaws.

How they choose and how they cultivate themselves is up to them.

Many years have passed, and Di Qing's sermon has come to an end.

Many cultivators took their leave, while Di Qing returned to the depths of Buzhou Mountain. The Creation Immortal Venerable and the others who had followed him were also slightly absorbed in the various wonderful methods and systems that Di Qing had just described.

Their gazes held a hint of doubt. Why would Di Qing preach in this way? The conventional way to preach in the primordial world was to recount one's understanding of the Great Dao and its various mysteries. Then, one would guide the listeners to experience the mysteries of the Great Dao. Finally, one would allow these listeners to comprehend the Great Dao and grasp its profound meaning on their own.

Now, Di Qing is directly disseminating cultivation methods, which is somewhat unusual. It's like cooking a dish: ordinary cultivators are simply given the ingredients and then instructed to prepare it themselves. But Di Qing is now directly providing the recipe.

They took out the dishes and prepared them directly, allowing the cultivators to taste and comprehend them.

This special preaching style breaks with the conventions of ordinary preaching.

Di Qing didn't offer much explanation, simply saying, "This time, I will only impart the Dharma, not preach the Dao! You can figure out why yourself. Next, I must go into seclusion to cultivate. You all must also accelerate your cultivation and develop your respective forces."

The Immortal Venerable of Creation and the others nodded upon hearing this, without saying much. Many among them also understood Di Qing's intentions. For example, Di Qing wanted to spread cultivation methods so that all cultivators in the prehistoric world would have a way to cultivate.

Since they possess cultivation methods, these cultivators have the capacity to resist them. If they were to encounter a Heavenly Dao puppet like Hongjun imparting teachings, they could choose to refuse.

The same applies to the propagation system. With more cultivation systems to choose from, when Hongjun spread the Celestial-Human System again, it wouldn't have spread so quickly, and a third of the prehistoric cultivators wouldn't have chosen to cultivate it.

It can be said that one of the core objectives of Di Qing's transmission of the Dharma this time was to eliminate the conditions for Hongjun to transmit the Dharma and spread the Heavenly Dao. It can also be considered a different way of weakening the Heavenly Dao and Hongjun.

Of course, Di Qing also has other goals, but we won't go into those for now.

With a wave of his sleeve, he dismissed them. Then, Di Qing once again ascended to the summit of Buzhou Mountain, descended into the Pangu Temple, and continued his secluded cultivation.

While Di Qing was in seclusion cultivating, things went wild in the Primordial World.

Of the countless beings in the primordial world, only about 30% were able to transform into human form. Of these 30%, less than 10% were able to embark on the path of cultivation. The remaining 20% ​​struggled to even begin cultivation, primarily due to a lack of cultivation methods and systems.

Although the methods of immortality and the Buddhist and Taoist systems have been passed down, it has mostly been through a line of cultivators passing on their knowledge to other cultivators. Many immortal and Buddhist cultivators do not want more people to engage in cultivation, lest it affect their harvest of resources. Therefore, they strictly limit the spread of these two systems.

This has resulted in many cultivators in the prehistoric world still lacking cultivation methods.

Now things are different. Di Qing has imprinted three thousand cultivation methods and three cultivation systems on the Dao Transmission Stone Tablet and placed it outside Buzhou Mountain. Anyone can come here to see them and find a cultivation method and system that suits them.

As a result, Buzhou gradually became a place that all living beings in the primordial world longed for. Every moment, countless cultivators would come to the outside of Buzhou, gazing at the Dao-transmitting stone tablet and trying to comprehend the cultivation methods within.

Moreover, these cultivators, upon arriving at the preaching stele and receiving the cultivation method, inevitably felt gratitude or even reverence. All of this transformed into a special power of faith, surging into the heavens and settling upon Emperor Qing.

Then, as these cultivators traveled throughout the prehistoric world with their cultivation methods, they spread their knowledge. The number of cultivators in the prehistoric world increased, and so did the number of cultivators who took human form.

In a short period of time, the number of cultivators who had previously fallen among the Celestial Realm cultivators was gradually replenished.
