Chapter 1190 Dao Banquet: Paragon\'s Sermon
"An honored Paragon," Wang Wei calmly responded. However, most people gave him a blank and confused face. "I guess I can tell you this information for free. Do you know the realms after Great Emperor?"
Most people were once again confused, but someone said. "I once heard the word [Empyrean], but that\'s all I know."
"That is correct," Wang Wei nodded. "Once your luck is enough, and your cultivation reaches 70% Grand Dao Source, you must survive the Immemorial Tribulation and condense the Grandmist Wheel to gain the power of Creation; then you\'ll become an Empyrean."
Wang Wei paused to give them thoughts to process this information.
"After 90% Grand Dao Source and other factors, you\'ll become a Paragon and stand at the top of the universe."
Everyone was shocked before thinking how such a being could attend their little banquet. They should be nothing but ants before someone who stands at the pinnacle of the universe. These people immediately reached the conclusion that Wang Wei might have contacted his ancestors in the upper dimension and invited them despite the blockage of the lower dimension.
Wang Wei guessed what they were thinking, but he did not explain any further: "It\'s your luck to have such a cultivator preaching to you. So, let\'s not waste time and take full advantage of this situation."
Wang Wei\'s cushion flew from the small podium and sat before everyone, facing the podium. He stood up and waited. Everyone immediately followed him, and less than 30 seconds later, Chen Tong\'s handsome face appeared on the podium. He looked ordinary, but no one dared to underestimate him.
As strong as the Supreme Emperor is, people can still feel his presence - especially that perfect aura on his body that can be intoxicating. However, this man had nothing; they saw him but could not detect him. It was like he existed in a realm beyond their sights, thoughts, souls, and even existence.
"Thank you again, Lord Chen Tong," Wang Wei said as he cupped his hand to salute.
"Thank you, Lord Chen Tong," the crowd followed. However, they were not as bold as Wang Wei and bowed ninety degrees - some even kowtowed.
"No problem," Chen Tong nodded. "I\'ve been observing the lower dimension for a long time, and as you said, this is indeed the most wonderful generation of Emperors."
This banquet immediately became an odd sight as these old immortals, who have lived for billions of years or more, became shy or red out of embarrassment with one comment. Some immediately became proud. However, the more level-headed individuals knew why this generation was so exceptional, so they glanced at the Supreme Emperor.
"Alright, let\'s get started," Cheng Tong announced. His projection sat on the podium and began preaching: "What is cultivation? Today, we will explore this topic. I will explain my understanding, along with a detailed explanation of the path of cultivation from Tier 1 to Tier 12."
As soon as Chen Tong started, the Dao Rhymes he produced condensed into Golden Lotus Flowers that blessed everyone present. A silent cry of joy emanated from Heaven and Earth as a result, but only people like Wang Wei, Yan Liling, and Chen Tong noticed.
The cultivators, who were in a deep state of epiphany, quickly felt the sermon was somewhat similar to Wang Wei. Chen Tong talked about Essence, Qi, and Spirit but focused on how these things applied to cultivators from Tier 1 to higher levels. There are many cultivation systems in the lower dimension, and his sermon was a way to be universal to everyone.
Once the sermon reached the part about Tier 10 (Emperor Realm), Chen Tong did not talk much about Daos but focused on every aspect of the Emperor Realm: Dao Body, Awakening, Soul, Dao Will, Will Manifestation, True Will, Battle Realm, and Dao Imprint. He was very detailed, and Wang Wei learned a great deal.
Everyone waited in anticipation once Chen Tong finished talking about Dao Imprints. They thought they would immediately get a look into the next realm, but Chen Tong then started talking about the Dao - mainly the Soul Dao.
He started with the basic laws until they reached the level of Grand Dao Source. The soul was a Dao applicable to everyone, so Chen Tong focused on using and growing the soul, which was very helpful to most people at this banquet.
Finally, Chen Tong talked about the Empyrean Realm. He first talked about tips on surviving the Immemorial Tribulations, including what level of Dao Heart someone must have before even attempting the breakthrough. He continued preaching about how things like the Awakening evolved after becoming an Empyrean. He talked about the role of the Grandmist Wheel in general - especially how to condense it. He touched on how the wheel affects other aspects of an Empyrean - for example, battle and use of resources. Chen Tong even discussed the differences between normal and Everlasting Empyreans.
Finally, Chen Tong talked about the requirements for becoming a Paragon. Most people were confused by the Empyrean Sermon, so they opted to memorize the information to use later. As such, they were even more confused about the complexity of the Paragon Realm\'s sermon - besides the basic info.
Even Wang Wei could not keep up with the Paragon Tier Sermon. Luckily for him, Chen Tong talked about Soul Dao, one of his sub-Daos, and his sealed soul, which was also Paragon Tier. As such, he used this sermon to map out an outline for his Soul Dao and just recorded the parts he did not understand under certain categories of his outline.
"30,000 years," Chen Tong declared. "I think that\'s more than enough. Some of you cannot understand what I\'ve said, but that\'s fine. I\'ll help you remember everything." He pointed to the sky to manifest a circle. All the immortals immediately felt it was easy to record the entire in their souls.
Li Jun looked at his wife and hesitated. He then looked at Wang Wei:
\'Brother, should we?\' He understood it might be impossible to hide divine sense communication under the nose of a Paragon, but he had no other choice. He was not his big brother, so he couldn\'t record everything from this sermon.
\'No problem,\' Wang Wei nodded before talking to his mother. \'You can record it, but there is no need to burden Father\'s weak soul.\'
\'Alright,\' Yu Yan nodded.
\'You know I\'m still here, right?\'
\'Quiet,\' Yu Yan said.
\'So, Chen Tong\'s main Dao is Soul?\' Wang Wei thought. This was the only explanation given that his understanding of the subject had reached 90% or more. \'Or, he has lived long enough that his sub-Daos also reached the Paragon Realm.\'
Wang Wei leaned on the former since such a deep understanding of the soul could explain Chen Tong\'s secret technique that granted him so much freedom despite being in Limbo.
"Thank you, Lord Chen Tong, for the great sermon," Wang Wei said, actually quite sincere. He\'s the one who benefitted the most from it, and he even believed that Chen Tong tailored to ensure that happened. Of course, this will not change the latter\'s fate, especially after Chen Tong tries to make his friends and loved ones owe him more karma with that last stunt.
The participants followed Wang Wei\'s example and saluted, and Chen Tong smiled. "All of you have a long path ahead of you. Keep moving forward and never give up because of the adversity." Chen Tong disappeared, and Wang Wei frowned. He saw that most of the Dao Rhymes from the Lotus disappeared, and only a small part entered the Dao Opening Sect.
\'I figure True Heavenly Dao wouldn\'t allow such a level of Dao Rhymes in the lower dimension. But it still hurts.\' Paragons can send projection in the lower dimension, so why have they never preached and left such intense Dao Rhymes to their sect - because it was pointless.
Wang Wei shook his head before slowly returning to his seat. The event had finished, but there was still something he wanted to do before dismissing everybody. He waved his hand to summon a jar of wine; although it was not as good as the one served in the banquet, it was still top-of-the-line Emperor Grade wine.
"Firstly, I would like to thank you for not only giving me face and attending this banquet but for all the things we\'ve accomplished in this era. I could not have done so without all of you." Wang Wei raised his wine to everyone before drinking.
"It was our honor, your majesty." Everyone chugged the wine. What an honor to be served by such a legendary character.
"Now, for the main business," Wang Wei announced. However, before he could speak, the sky suddenly changed as another vision manifested.
