: Humans Gather, Sage Preaches.

Chapter 99: Humans Gather, Sage Preaches.

Time flies by like a white horse galloping past a crack in the wall. The sun sets in the west and the moon rises in the east. Before we knew it, a hundred days had passed.

One hundred days passed quickly. On this day, on the shore of the East China Sea, countless streams of light fell continuously, heading towards the people on the shore of the East China Sea.

Chen Qing stood atop the mountain peak, glanced at it quietly, and then looked away.

He glanced at them calmly and saw that within the countless streams of light were all people of the human race. He then knew that these were human cultivators summoned by Suirenshi.

At this time, there were many human tribes, but they were scattered in all directions of the prehistoric world, and some tribes were very far away, making it extremely inconvenient to communicate with them.

When the demon race slaughtered the human race, the human race initially fled in all directions and scattered to many places.

Among them are those at Shouyang Mountain, the Taoist temple of the Sage Taiqing; those at Kunlun Mountain, the Taoist temple of the Primordial Heavenly Venerable; those in the Western Lands; those at Wanshou Mountain, the Taoist temple of Zhenyuanzi; and those in the Wu tribe.

Over the years, these humans have developed and their numbers have grown considerably.

Chen Qing originally created cultivation methods specifically for the human race, and Suirenshi, in order to ensure that all the human races scattered in various places had cultivation methods, also traveled to various places to pass on the cultivation methods.

Now, so many years have passed, and this time the sage is about to expound the Great Dao. Suirenshi sent someone to inform him, trying to gather all the cultivators among the human race.

Of course, there is a time limit; the sage cannot be made to wait here indefinitely.

Today, the hundred-day period has come to an end. The human race has gone to various places to notify those who were supposed to return, and those who were supposed to arrive have arrived. If there are still those who have not been notified, it can only be said that they are not fortunate enough to have this opportunity.

After all, it's impossible to wait until everyone arrives before explaining the Great Dao. The time of a sage is extremely precious, and Suirenshi dared not let the four sages wait there.

Although Chen Qing was there, he knew very well that he was not Chen Qing and that he had to show the proper attitude.

Chen Qing could ignore the Four Saints because he was strong enough to disregard them.

But they couldn't do that. They knew that the human race was only able to have this opportunity to listen to the sage explain the Great Dao because the four sages made a deal out of respect for Chen Qing.

If the human race cannot properly position itself and cannot demonstrate its sincerity to the sages, then the sages' explanation of the Great Dao may simply be wasted. Perhaps, even if the sages do explain the Great Dao, their view of the human race will change.

If a sage were to harbor resentment, it would be something that the human race at this time could not bear.

Suirenshi was well aware of this, so when everyone left, he set a time limit of one hundred days. Those who could not attend would prove that they had no chance.

Chen Qing, however, was completely unaware of all this. He merely glanced at it indifferently, then said nothing, quietly observing the primordial world.

The four sages did the same, simply glancing quietly at the countless streams of light before ignoring them and continuing to comprehend the Great Dao.

Among the human race, Suirenshi stood atop the palace, watching the continuous arrival of human people, a satisfied smile on his face and excitement in his eyes.

At this moment, millions of humans had gathered at the lecture platform. These millions of people were all cultivators, with the weakest being at the Earth Immortal realm and the strongest at the Profound Immortal realm.

As for the Golden Immortals, Taiyi Golden Immortals, and Daluo Golden Immortals, they did not arrive at the scene at this time, but instead gathered towards the palace.

The number of streaks of light had decreased considerably, but they were still heading towards the coast of the East China Sea.

Suirenshi merely glanced at the returning crowd and waited quietly there.

As time passed, and after the last ray of light fell, the pulpit was already full of people.

This preaching platform has now been transformed by Chen Qing into an independent branch of spacetime, within which there are hundreds of millions of human cultivators.

These people have varying levels of cultivation, some high and some low, but without exception, they are all human cultivators.

Suirenshi looked at the last of the returning Great Luo Golden Immortals and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Everyone is here. You should all go and listen to the lecture. I'm going to the mountaintop to invite a sage to come and explain the Great Dao to our human race."

Upon hearing this, everyone bowed respectfully to Suirenshi.

"Yes, Ancestor Suiren."

After saying this, everyone headed straight for the pulpit.

Suirenshi glanced at it, then looked at the two people beside him, indicating that they should also go and listen to the lecture, while he would go to the mountain peak alone.

Upon seeing this, Youchao and Ziyi did not linger and headed directly toward the preaching platform.

Seeing that everyone had arrived at the preaching platform, Suirenshi immediately headed towards the mountain peak.

After Suirenshi arrived at the mountain peak, he looked at the five people and bowed respectfully.

"Our human race has now gathered together. We humbly request the Sage to expound the Great Dao."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing turned to look at Suirenshi.

"Suiren, you may leave now."

Upon hearing this, Suirenshi immediately bowed again and then headed towards the human preaching platform.

Chen Qing watched Suirenshi leave, then looked at Taiqing Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian Jiaozhu, and Nuwa Shengren, a faint smile on his face.

"Four fellow Daoists, who would like to go first to explain the Great Dao?"

The four exchanged glances, and Taiqing Laozi took a step forward before speaking.

"I'll go first. I'll explain the Great Dao of Three Thousand Years first, and you can come back after three thousand years."

After saying this, Taiqing Laozi glanced at the other three people, and then looked at Chen Qing.

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing nodded in agreement.

Taiqing Laozi immediately headed towards the preaching platform, but instead began to explain the Great Dao.

After Taiqing Laozi arrived at the preaching platform, he glanced at the spacetime branch that Chen Qing had created independently, and then landed directly on his seat.

He glanced at the crowd, then closed his eyes.

Upon seeing that it was the Sage Taiqing, Suirenshi immediately stood up and bowed to him.

"Thank you, Sage Taiqing, for explaining the Great Dao to our human race."

As the three ancestors of the human race bowed, all the humans in this space rose and respectfully bowed to Taiqing Laozi.

"Thank you, Sage Taiqing, for explaining the Great Dao to our human race."

After everyone finished speaking, they sat down.

Upon seeing this, Laozi of Taiqing did not wait any longer and began to explain the Great Dao directly.

As Taiqing Laozi spoke, countless Dao sounds appeared, filling the space completely. Behind him, a pillar of light manifested, containing countless laws.

Countless strange phenomena appeared, filling this space.

Chen Qing glanced at the lectern, frowned, and then activated the power of the galaxy within his body, directly breaking the space around the lectern.

Endless earth, water, fire, wind, and chaotic energy appeared. Chen Qing used his supernatural powers to suppress the power of earth, water, fire, and wind, and transformed the chaotic energy into innate spiritual energy.

In an instant, countless primordial spiritual energies appeared, filling the space for the human race to absorb and cultivate.

After Chen Qing saw that everything was normal and that the innate spiritual energy was sufficient for the listening humans to absorb, he stopped paying attention and simply closed his eyes, letting his spirit wander beyond the heavens.

Taiqing Laozi was explaining the Great Dao when he sensed the space shattering. He opened his eyes and looked at the shattered space. After seeing countless chaotic energies transform into innate spiritual energy, he knew that this was Chen Qing's doing.

Taiqing Laozi glanced at it briefly, then stopped watching and continued explaining the Great Dao.

Time flows slowly by, and in the blink of an eye, three thousand years have passed.

Every three thousand years, the Sage of Taiqing stopped explaining the Great Dao and instead looked at the Yuanshi Tianzun who had already arrived, handing this place over to him.

After the arrival of the Primordial Celestial Venerable, he continued to explain the Great Dao to the human race without ever stopping.

In this way, time passed quietly and imperceptibly as the Primordial Celestial Venerable preached.

As for Chen Qing? He was lost in thought, observing the endless world.

As for the Tongtian Sect Leader and the Sage Nuwa, they comprehended the Heavenly Dao and understood their own laws.

After explaining the Great Dao, Taiqing Laozi returned directly to the mountain peak, glanced at the three of them, and then sat on the concave ox, contemplating the Dao of Heaven.

At the preaching platform, hundreds of millions of people listened to the sage explain the Great Dao, and thus, tremendous changes occurred.

At this moment, what they had some questions about their previous cultivation became clear and understood under the sage's explanation. Their doubts were resolved, and they were rapidly comprehending the Great Dao.

At this moment, many people had already broken through their own realms. If Chen Qing hadn't broken through space and transformed the chaotic energy into innate spiritual energy, even if so many people absorbed innate spiritual energy at the same time, the innate spiritual energy of the endless East Sea would probably not be enough.

After all, it's not just one or two people breaking through at this time, but tens of thousands of people breaking through at the same time, which requires a massive amount of innate spiritual energy.

Even in the primordial world, where the spiritual energy of the boundless East Sea is abundant, hundreds of millions of people absorbing innate spiritual energy at the same time would create a vacuum that would take time to recover.

Chen Qing transformed the chaotic energy into innate spiritual energy, which was then supplied to the human race for absorption. In this way, there was virtually no consumption of energy.

Everyone listened to the sage explain the Great Dao while absorbing endless spiritual energy and transforming it into their own magical power.

At this moment, they were all immersed in the ocean of the Great Dao, comprehending their own Great Dao.
