Primordial Era: Cultivation level equals the sum of the Jie Sect's total; the Three Pure Ones a

Xuandu sat quietly on the futon, his green robes fluttering slightly. His eyes, like a deep pool in an ancient well, reflected Tongtian's eyes, which were churning with anticipation and resentment.

He never expected that his master's thoughts would coincide with his own.

The Jie Sect is full of talented immortals, yet they are bound by the shackles of the Heavenly Dao and can never break through the limit of Quasi-Saints.

Duobao, Zhao Gongming, Sanxiao, Wudang Holy Mother, Jinling Holy Mother, Guiling Holy Mother... which one of them is not exceptionally talented and blessed with great fortune?

Even more remarkable are guests of the Purple Cloud Palace like Styx and Kunpeng, whose origins are no less than those of saints, yet they have wasted countless years, their sainthood still a distant dream.

All this is because the positions of the sages in the Heavenly Way are predetermined, and the primordial purple energy has already been divided.

Without the opportunity to defy fate, even if the Jie Sect had ten thousand immortals paying homage, it would only be a tragic backdrop in the great calamity, eventually dissipating with the calamity and turning into a few sighs in the annals of history.

But I have this chance to defy fate.

"Master."

Xuan Du spoke slowly, his voice calm, yet carrying an unwavering certainty that seemed to pierce through the ages:

"The Way of Hunyuan can be passed on."

As the four words fell, the sword intent in Tongtian's eyes suddenly flashed!

He suddenly stood up, his body surging with the azure sword intent, illuminating the entire Biyou Palace with a clear light:

"really?!"

"really."

Xuan Du nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over the faint aura of ten thousand immortals appearing outside the palace:

"The Path of Primordial Chaos is the path of transcendence. It does not rely on the Way of Heaven, nor on external things, but only on one's own body, and only in battle can one be invincible."

"The foundation of this path lies in three points."

He held up three fingers and spoke slowly and deliberately:

"Firstly, one's mind is clear and one's will is as strong as iron."

"We must sever our dependence on the authority of Heaven, break our obsession with the Primordial Purple Qi, and realize that our own body is the Dao and our own heart is Heaven."

"If you still have even a sliver of wishful thinking or a sliver of dependence in your heart, you will never be able to take that step."

Tongtian's gaze sharpened, and he slowly nodded.

How could he not know this?

In the primordial world, billions of people gathered, and all cultivation was based on the Dao of Heaven, with the authority of sages being supreme.

Let alone ordinary cultivators, even a Heavenly Dao Saint like him would find it difficult to completely break free from the shackles of the Heavenly Dao.

Xuandu succeeded because he created his own martial arts, which was against the will of Heaven, and his Dao heart had already transcended.

But how many disciples of the Jie Sect can sever this dependence?

Secondly.

Xuandu continued:

"Deeply rooted, with a perfect origin."

"The Path of Primordial Chaos is a leap in the level of life and a transformation in the essence of the laws."

"Without a sufficiently deep foundation and a flawless origin, a forced impact will inevitably result in a backlash, death, and the dissipation of one's cultivation."

Tongtian frowned slightly.

This is even more demanding.

Although there are many disciples of the Jie Sect, how many of them can truly refine their foundation to perfection?

Even among direct disciples like Duobao and Zhao Gongming, it's hard to say their foundations were flawless.

After all, their cultivation paths all follow the laws of Heaven and are influenced by the laws of Heaven, so their origins are inevitably mixed with the imprint of Heaven.

Achieving complete perfection is easier said than done.

Thirdly.

Xuan Du's voice turned deep:

"We must overcome the tribulation of the Great Dao."

"The Primordial Great Luo is a transcendent being recognized by the Great Dao, incomparable to the Heavenly Dao Saints."

"When one attains enlightenment, one must invoke the will of the Great Dao and undergo nine tribulations to solidify the Primordial Dao Fruit."

"The calamity of this calamity is a hundred times greater than that of a heavenly calamity."

"The slightest carelessness will result in the complete annihilation of one's soul and spirit."

After he finished speaking, Biyou Palace fell into a deathly silence.

Tongtian slowly sat back on the cloud bed, his eyes deep and unfathomable.

The Dao heart, the foundation, the tribulations of the Great Dao... each of these is an insurmountable barrier.

Although there are many disciples of the Jie Sect, how many of them can simultaneously meet all three requirements?

"Master."

Xuandu raised his eyes and looked towards Tongtian:

"I have a method that may help the disciples of the Jie Sect... embark on this path."

Tongtian's eyes suddenly lit up:

"What method?"

"Based on martial arts."

Xuan Du, word by word:

"The martial arts I created are a way to temper oneself and tap into one's potential. It does not rely on external things, but only on one's own body, which is in line with the path of Hunyuan."

"This disciple is willing to pass on the true essence of martial arts to the Jie Sect."

"All disciples of my Jie Sect may also cultivate martial arts, using martial arts to temper their bodies, refine their souls, and strengthen their foundations."

"Once the foundation is perfected and the Dao heart is clear, then we can trigger the tribulation of the Great Dao... and perhaps we can make a gamble."

Upon hearing this, Tongtian's eyes flashed with a sharp light!

"Practicing martial arts as well?"

His mind raced, and he instantly understood the meaning of Xuandu.

Martial arts is a path created by Xuandu himself, which has been recognized by the Great Dao and is the foundation for the manifestation of humanity.

This path does not follow the Way of Heaven, nor does it rely on external things; it focuses solely on self-cultivation, which can make up for the shortcomings of cultivating the Way of Heaven.

If one can temper their foundation and replenish their origin through martial arts, it may truly enable the disciples of the Jie Sect to possess the foundation to break through to the Hunyuan realm!

"good!"

Tongtian clapped his hands and laughed:

"This method is excellent!"

"Martial arts temper the body and strengthen the foundation; martial arts refine the mind and solidify the Dao heart."

"Cultivating both paths simultaneously, complementing each other... might truly open up an unprecedented path of transcendence for our Jie Sect!"

He looked at Xuandu, his eyes filled with satisfaction:

"Xuan Du, this matter... is now entirely in your hands."

"All the immortals of the Jie Sect are at your command."

"Anyone who wishes to cultivate martial arts can receive your true teachings."

Xuan Du rose and bowed deeply.

"Disciple will certainly not fail Master's trust."

He also had his own plans.

The wider the martial arts spread and the more practitioners there are, the richer the feedback one receives through the summation system.

If a disciple of the Jie Sect can break through through martial arts, the higher their cultivation level, the stronger the feedback, and the further they will go on their path to Hunyuan.

This is a win-win situation.

It is also the beginning of the true transcendence of the Jie Sect!

"but."

Tongtian suddenly spoke, his voice now carrying a hint of solemnity:

"The spread of martial arts should not be rushed."

"Especially now, as a great calamity is about to begin, and all the saints are surrounding us."

"If Yuanshi, Jieyin, Zhunti, and others were to find out that our Jie Sect intends to open up the path to Hunyuan through martial arts... there might be unforeseen changes."

Xuan Du's gaze turned slightly cold:

"Master, rest assured, your disciple knows what to do."

"The spread of martial arts should begin with direct disciples and core disciples."

"Once the foundation is solid, we can gradually expand outwards."

"During the great calamity, the secrets of heaven are in chaos, which is precisely the opportunity for secret planning."

Tongtian nodded slowly:

"good."

He paused, then flicked his sleeve:

"Go and prepare."

"Three days later, in Biyou Palace, I will summon my personal disciples and impart the true meaning of martial arts."

"Yes."

Xuandu said no more and turned to leave Biyou Palace.

Outside the palace, celestial mists swirled and purple clouds rose.

Jin'ao Island stands majestically, its aura of immortals rising and falling like the tides, subtly resonating with the soaring martial will on the shores of the East China Sea.

Xuan Du stood alone before the white jade steps, his green robes fluttering slightly, his gaze sweeping across the entire immortal island.

Duobao Peak, Jin'ao Peak, Sanxian Island, Luofu Cave... one after another, immortal mountains and blessed lands appear, with varying degrees of cultivation aura, but all carrying the unique grandeur and vitality of the Jie Sect.

"The spread of martial arts... begins here."

Xuan Du muttered to himself and took a step forward.

His figure moved like lightning, disappearing from outside Biyou Palace in an instant.

Direction... Duobao Peak, where Duobao Daoist resides.
