Chapter 48

Preaching

After dealing with the Nuolanshan incident, it was already the end of the year.

Instead of running around, Zhou Tong spent a long-awaited and lively Spring Festival with Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen.

Years later, the year is 2063.

Thor, who had been waiting to the limit, urged Zhou Tong to teach them the Three Thousand Great Daos as if it were a death knell.

Zhou Tong didn't delay any longer. He also wanted to take this opportunity to organize his knowledge and hone his combat skills in preparation for the upcoming peak universe genius battle.

The Three Thousand Great Daos cannot be simulated in a virtual universe.

Therefore, Zhou Tong must learn some simplified techniques and basic skills from the Three Thousand Great Daos; otherwise, he would only be able to fight with his fists and feet in the virtual universe.

The training hall.

With a thought, Zhou Tong used the Great World Technique to activate a spatial domain that isolated him from the outside world.

Then he looked at Luo Feng, Lei Shen, and Hong, who were eagerly waiting.

"Now you can speak freely without worrying about revealing too many secrets."

Lightning scratched his head, puzzled, and said, "Isn't it just teaching us the Three Thousand Great Daos? What secrets could it possibly reveal?"

Luo Feng, who already had experience, became serious and immediately notified Babata to block all communications in the training hall. He knew that Zhou Tong was probably about to reveal some huge bombshell.

Sensing this, Zhou Tong smiled and said, "There's no need to be so nervous. I'm just sharing some basic knowledge with you."

However, Luo Feng looked at him with disbelief on his face.

Thor and Hong became somewhat curious after seeing the two's behavior.

Zhou Tong didn't keep you in suspense and said directly, "The three thousand Great Daos I am going to teach you are not all that I have cultivated, and of course, it's not that I don't want to teach you all of them, but that the will of the universe does not allow it."

"Um...you mean, the universe...is conscious?"

Thor's question was also the question that Luo Feng and Hong wanted to ask.

Zhou Tong waved his hand: "You only need to know these things for now, there's no need to delve into them. You'll naturally know when you're strong enough."

Zhou Tong didn't give Luo Feng and the other two a chance to ask more questions, and continued, "Also, the Three Thousand Great Daos that I taught you cannot be used in the virtual universe. The virtual universe doesn't have the ability to simulate the Three Thousand Great Daos."

At this moment, Luo Feng asked the question that had arisen when he first entered the virtual universe.

"Zhou Tong, do you know what a virtual universe is?"

Instantly, Hong and Thor also perked up their ears; anyone who had ever entered the virtual universe wanted to know the answer.

Zhou Tong answered directly: "The virtual universe is a consciousness universe created by the first strong human, the Primordial Ancestor, with a mechanical race universe master's servant as its core. It can be considered a special secret technique."

Luo Feng was immediately shocked and exclaimed, "If the Lord of the Universe is a servant, how powerful must the Primordial Ancestor be?"

Zhou Tong had explained the cultivation levels to Luo Feng a long time ago, and Luo Feng had also explained it to Lei Shen and Hong Jiandan, so they knew what the Lord of the Universe represented.

"True God!" Zhou Tong replied, then continued, "The title 'Strongest Being in the Universe,' which is above the 'Lord of the Universe,' is merely a cultivation level designation in the primordial universe. In higher-level worlds, 'True God' is the original title for this realm. You will naturally learn this once you become Lords of the Universe."

Luo Feng twitched his lips. Zhou Tong's relaxed tone made him think that the Lord of the Universe was at the Universe level and could break through to the next realm.

At this moment, Luo Feng remembered what Zhou Tong had told him before: Earth was transformed by a powerful being who surpassed the Lord of the Universe.

"Zhou Tong, what level of cultivation did that powerful figure who transformed Earth possess?"

Zhou Tong smiled slightly but did not answer directly: "You will know once you have mastered the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual and become his disciple."

Luo Feng was speechless and didn't press the matter further. Based on his understanding of Zhou Tong, he knew that Zhou Tong would just pretend to be a charlatan if he didn't want to talk about something.

Hong, who hadn't spoken until now, suddenly said, "Speaking of the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, a few days ago Yaorao reported that she found a piece of material that is very similar to Zhou Tong's description, and they are currently verifying it."

Luo Feng was immediately startled: "Are there many people who know about the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual?"

Hong shook his head: "Only a few of us know about the Nine Tribulations Secret Scripture. Those who are searching for it think they are excavating the relics of an ancient civilization."

Thor nodded: "A mix of truth and lies, that's a pretty good excuse."

Luo Feng chimed in, "The Nine Tribulations Secret Scripture is, in essence, a relic of an ancient civilization, so there's nothing wrong with excavating it."

When the topic turned to cultivation techniques, Lei Shen urged Zhou Tong again.

"Let's put the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual aside for now. Zhou Tong, tell us what the Three Thousand Great Daos will teach us?"

Looking at the eager Thor, Zhou Tong chuckled and said, "Don't worry, this is definitely what you need most and what suits you best. However, you have to choose between the Great Dao that is the same as the one you are currently cultivating, or the Great Dao of Space or Time."

Thor chuckled: "Can't I have them all?"

Zhou Tong shrugged and spread his hands, saying, "I don't care, as long as you feel it won't interfere with your current cultivation."

Hong immediately shook his head: "Thor, you still haven't grasped the lightning domain. You'll definitely need to comprehend space and time later, but that's still a long way off for us right now."

Thor naturally understood these principles, but seeing the gap between him and Luo Feng and Hong widening, he became somewhat anxious.

With a sigh, Thor regained his composure: "Then I'll choose the three thousand great paths of lightning."

Zhou Tong nodded and waved to Thor, signaling him to come closer.

"The Great Way cannot be expressed in words, but can only be conveyed through meaning."

Thor immediately appeared in front of Zhou Tong in a flash.

Zhou Tong pointed a finger at Thor's brow, simultaneously communicating with the Chaos Primordial Embryo in his mind, transmitting the Great Lightning Technique (original) and other lightning divine abilities derived from the Great Dao to several of them.

Then he explained, "Thor, I haven't mastered the Great Lightning Technique that's most suitable for you yet, so you can only figure it out on your own, or first cultivate the less difficult derivative supernatural powers, and then cultivate them after you've faced the battle against the universe's top geniuses."

Thor's face immediately fell upon hearing this: "So unlucky? I was already a step behind Luo Feng and Brother Hong, and now I'm going to be even slower?"

Zhou Tong laughed and said, "Don't worry, it will be easier to learn the Great Lightning Technique after you have mastered these lightning magic abilities."

Thor nodded helplessly, then stepped aside to examine the details of the Great Lightning Technique and Thunder Magic that Zhou Tong had taught him.

Next, Zhou Tong passed on to Hong the Great Light Technique and the Great Dark Technique.

Zhou Tong had already mastered the Great Radiance Technique, so teaching it was simple. He copied the runes condensed from the Great Radiance Technique using the Chaos Primal Embryo and transmitted them into Hong's sea of ​​consciousness, thus completing the teaching. The Great Darkness Technique, however, required Hong to comprehend on his own.

Finally, there was Luo Feng. Zhou Tong didn't pass on the complete Five Elements Technique to him, only giving him the White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash and the Azure Emperor Wood Emperor Technique. However, he also taught Luo Feng two spatial-related Great Daos: the Great Devouring Technique and the Great Flashing Technique.

These are all the three thousand Great Daos that fit Luo Feng's Cloud Vine and the Golden Horned Beast's clone.

After imparting the Three Thousand Great Daos to the three, Zhou Tong explained some key techniques for cultivating the Three Thousand Great Daos to them, and then dismissed them to cultivate on their own.

Of course, Zhou Tong didn't forget about the Zerg Queen Irina, whom he had painstakingly subdued.

Inside the World Ring, Irina was organizing the resources needed to cultivate Zerg warriors.

"Irina, what law are you best at?"

Irina was pleasantly surprised to hear Zhou Tong's question, as she had already learned about him during this time.

Furthermore, because Zhou Tong needed Irina to train Zerg warriors, he also took the initiative to tell Irina a lot of information about himself.

"My lord, I am most skilled in the Law of Fire, but I am still far from fully comprehending it, and I am even further from mastering the higher-level Law of Space. I am still a long way from reaching the Immortal level."

Zhou Tong nodded without saying anything. He reached out and touched Irina's brow, transmitting nearly ten of the Three Thousand Great Daos suitable for Irina's cultivation—including the Great Five Elements Technique, Great Flash Technique, Great Cutting Technique, Great World Technique, Great Blood Soul Technique, Great Slaughter Technique, and Great Poison Technique—to Irina's sea of ​​consciousness through a copy made from the Chaos Primordial Embryo.

"First, you should cultivate the Great Five Elements Technique. Once you master it, you will be able to comprehend the Five Elements Laws. Then, you should cultivate the Great Flash Technique and the Great Slicing Technique, which will allow you to comprehend the Space Laws. The other three thousand Great Daos will increase your combat abilities."

"Thanks be to our Lord for His blessings!"

With a slight sense, Irina knew how precious the three Great Daos Zhou Tong had passed on to her were. Overwhelmed with emotion, she almost wanted to hug Zhou Tong tightly in her enormous arms to express her gratitude, but unfortunately, Zhou Tong had already left the World Ring first.
