“The establishment of Wandao School not only brought the former territories of the Chen Dynasty under control, but also added the regions of the Four Seas to its dominion.”
“To this day, under the heavens, there is no land that does not belong to the School, and no shore that isn’t touched by its scholars.”
“Upholding the grand aspirations of the Taoist Master, Wandao School united all Taoist Unity, legacies from all over the world, integrating and innovating upon them to finally create the foremost Taoist True Scriptures since ancient times—the Taoist Scriptures!”
“The Taoist Scriptures, encompassing all Taoist Unity, traditions of the world, Elixir Skills, Talisman, Artifact Skills, Formation, Curse Spell, Ritual Laws, Ghost and God’s Skill, every Mana Point from minor cultivating skills to Divine Skills—all are included within. They are the culmination of generations of cultivators pouring out their hearts, the painstaking efforts of countless great individuals, who spared no thoughts…”
“Thus, with collective efforts and pooled wisdom of the world, after blending and innovating, the Taoist Scriptures came into being!”
Ye Chen spoke with conviction, “Aside from the Taoist Scriptures, there are also the Martial Arts Scriptures, which were also amassed through collective efforts and derived through thousands of years. Their brilliance goes without saying. Wandao School and various other academies base their traditions on these scriptures, passing on their teachings to the world, and educating all beings.”
“Within both scriptures, there are three main methods of cultivation!”
“The first method is the world’s divine technique of Immortal Gods Creation, a communal effort that draws on the Fake Cultivation Skill to cultivate the Divine Soul.”
“Since this is a method of creation from the Ancient Immortal Gods, we, their descendants, are indeed inferior and thus have optimized very little, without introducing any new techniques. We have only developed a series of technologies to enhance the effectiveness of our collective efforts.”
“For example—the Divine Domain!”
Ye Chen smiled and looked at the crowd, “The Divine Domain game is a significant breakthrough of the Fake Cultivation Skill that allows for more efficient collection of the Divine Soul’s power through a special Magic Artifact, the game helmet.”
“Therefore, entering the Divine Domain game and completing daily tasks is a duty and responsibility for all of us common people. It cannot be shirked, still less avoided, as doing so would be akin to evading taxes, breaking the law and order, and would result in a deduction of conduct points or even arrest and sentencing!”
The crowd, hearing this, shared a knowing smile, and the classroom atmosphere became even more lively.
“Although the Divine Domain game involves harvesting, it does not just take; it also gives back. Over time, it can strengthen the Divine Soul and offers various tasks and study point rewards, without costing everyone too much.”
“Furthermore, the actions taken within the game can also accumulate experience, particularly in Talisman Making and Formation, Artifact Refining, and Alchemy. Practicing these skills in the game can save countless materials.”
“The few True Monarchs who developed this method were directly granted the privilege of the lead position in the Luotian Dajiao. Their descendants reaped many benefits. Just like the recent news reported, those few True Monarchs who developed the Yellow Beam Game Warehouse, will soon achieve the rank of Heavenly Master, with prospects of obtaining the Longevity Dao Fruit.”
Ye Chen sighed and continued, “That is the first method, the Fake Cultivation Skill!”
“Now, the second method, Martial Path cultivation!”
“The Martial Path cultivation bases itself on Qi Blood. Where does Qi Blood come from? It comes from the conversion of Yuan Spirit!”
“Therefore, Martial Path cultivation requires a great deal of nourishment to foster robust Qi Blood, necessary for its practice.”
“But in this world where Yuan Spirit is dormant, where can one find such nourishment?”
“This is where the marvel of Fake Cultivation Skill comes into play again!”
“The Mana achieved through Fake Cultivation Skill can be used in various productions, including planting and rearing!”
“Wandao School developed numerous consumable Spirit Plants and Spirit Beasts, serving as nourishment for Martial Path cultivation.”
“With such development over a thousand years, Martial Path too has prospered.”
“Currently within Wandao School, there are two main institutes: Heavenly Martial and Warrior Martial—one primarily focuses on the internal aspects of Martial Path and the other on external practice, further including Martial Path Divine Skills, which, if mastered, are not weaker than Taoist Skills.”
Ye Chen paused, giving the crowd time to digest the information.
“This is the second, Martial Path cultivation!”
“Lastly, the third method, the Skills of Spirit Root!”
“After research, we have discovered that within the human body, there is a miraculous thing called the Spiritual Root.”
“The Spiritual Root is like the Qi Sea in the Dantian, undetectable without a special method.”
“Those who possess a Spiritual Root can cultivate an ancient method from ancient times, the Yuan Spirit’s method, absorbing the power of the Heavenly Earth Prime Spirit directly through the Spiritual Root.”
“Originally, with the dormancy of the world’s Yuan Spirit, this method was practically useless.”
“However, the nourishments produced by Wandao School can substitute for Yuan Spirit.”
“Thus, cultivators with a Spiritual Root can consume various Spirit Rice, Spirit Meat, and Spirit Pills like Martial Artists, and the absorption efficiency is far higher than that of Martial Artists without a Spiritual Root.”
“Overall, as long as one has a Spiritual Root, the cultivation method of the Spiritual Root is the fastest and most efficient among the three major methods.”
Ye Chen smiled and scanned the audience, “Unfortunately, those with Spiritual Roots are one in ten thousand. Everyone present who was able to be admitted into Wandao School can be considered the pride of heaven, but not all have a Spiritual Root.”
“Moreover, there are levels among Spiritual Roots, categorized into Heaven, Earth, Mysterious, Yellow, each divided into three grades: high, medium, and low.”
“If you have a Heavenly Spirit Root, then you, my friend, are in luck. As long as you earn enough conduct points, you can be directly admitted to the main institutes of Wandao School, free to choose any, and you may even receive various offers vying to take you under their wing.”Visitt nov𝒆lbin(.)c𝒐/m for the l𝒂test updates
The crowd listened and chuckled, with some more unrestrained individuals replying.
“You make it sound simple, senior.”
“Heavenly Spirit Roots are not that easy to come by.”
“You might not even hope for one, even after being reincarnated for ten lifetimes.”
“If only Spiritual Roots could be artificially created or transplanted.”
“Don’t even mention it!”
Listening to the crowd’s comments, Ye Chen once again laughed and said.
“Research on Spiritual Roots, especially in terms of artificial creation and transplantation, has always been underway at Wandao School. If anyone among you can one day develop an artificial Spiritual Root or a method for transplanting one, I can assure you that you will certainly pass the Heavenly Master’s professional title examination and qualify for the leading position in the Luotian Dajiao.”
“Heavenly Master!”
“Luotian Dajiao!”
Upon hearing this, the crowd’s faces lit up with yearning.
Seizing the moment, Ye Chen went on to explain, “Wandao School unites all under heaven, creating new laws to present to the world, hence the cultivation system has been reborn.”
“The original titles of Taoist Children, Taoist Man, Taoist, Mage, True Man, True Monarch, Heavenly Master, are no longer names for stages of cultivation but are honorary titles.”
“Cultivation stages are replaced by new system names like Qi Cultivation, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul.”
“To enjoy the various benefits of the School, one must not only look at cultivation but also at professional titles.”
“If you’re at the Golden Core stage, theoretically you could enjoy the benefits accorded to a sixth realm Cultivator, but if you have not passed the True Monarch professional title examination of Wandao School, then you cannot receive the corresponding benefits.”
Ye Chen looked at the crowd and said, “Here at Wandao School, we value not just cultivation but also temperament, conduct, and morality.”
“The professional title examination is a test of your temperament, conduct, and morality, to see if you truly deserve your level of cultivation.”
“Without passing the professional title examination, even if your cultivation is sufficient, you cannot enjoy the corresponding benefits.”
“So, my fellow students, I must remind you earnestly here.”
Looking at the crowd, Ye Chen cautioned, “No matter what skills you cultivate, you must focus on temperament, nurture integrity and morals, and absolutely must not violate the laws or discipline. For Wandao School bases its governance on law, abides by the law, stands by the law, and no one, no matter who, is allowed to break it!”
His solemn words and serious demeanor caused everyone to restrain their smiles and sit up straight attentively.
Ye Chen nodded and continued, “In this regard, Taoism practitioners have the greatest advantage, for the reading and studying of Taoist Scriptures naturally cultivate temperament and ethics. Martial Artists and cultivators of the Spiritual Root must also be aware that though power is significant, if it is not used for righteousness, it then becomes the power of demons, the way of evil cultivators.”
“Now you understand why there is a category for conduct as early as elementary and middle schooling, right?”
“Wandao School cultivates Cultivators who are protectors of the Righteous Path, benefactors of all living beings, not to poison the world for one’s selfish desires!”
“Such demons and evil cultivators must be eliminated by everyone!”
“You who have been admitted to Wandao School must be the cream of the crop, the pride of heaven.”
“But I still need to warn you that in cultivation, morality is the foundation.”
“Without the Tao or virtues, even those with unmatched talents will find it difficult to achieve true success.”
With that, Ye Chen sighed, “Even within Wandao School, there have been many such cautionary tales.”
“Oh?”
The crowd was startled upon hearing this and then curiosity surged, “There are such people even within Wandao School?”
Ye Chen smiled lightly, “Of course there are, faces are known to many, but who truly knows what lies in hearts?”
“That’s true.”
The crowd nodded in understanding and then curiously asked, “So what happened to them?”
“What else could happen?”
Ye Chen calmly stated, “With strict laws, no one, whoever they might be, is allowed to break them. Since the establishment of Wandao School, nineteen hundred and thirty-seven years till today, those who tested the law and overstepped bounds, regardless of their status or talents, were executed without exception. Among them, were not only practitioners with Heavenly Spirit Roots, descendants of the Golden Core lineage, but also descendants of Heavenly Masters.”
“Even the Xin Family’s Fox descendants and members of the Mingxiao Taoist Lineage have been splattered with blood here!”
Looking at the crowd, Ye Chen emphasized, “Therefore, you must all remember, never test the law. It is the basis of Wandao School’s governance of the world, a boundary not to be crossed like a thunder pond!”
