Chapter 1186: Chapter 712: Establishing the Doctrine_2 Chapter 1186: Chapter 712: Establishing the Doctrine_2 The sound of the words, announcing to heaven and earth, shakes Divine Land.

No, not just Divine Land!

All beings across the Five Domains, at this moment, hear the Dao’s voice, which contains principles, elucidating the doctrines of Humanity.

What is a human?

Dao is human!

Righteousness is human!

A human can be anyone–demon, monster, or devil!

Not judged by bloodline, nor divided by clan, the righteous Dao cultivators are truly human!

This is the doctrine of humanity; education for all, without distinction, and all beings who receive this education can become human.

This human, is the Dao fruit, is the great enlightenment, is perfection!

Just as Immortals, Buddhas, Divine Beings, and practitioners of Daoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism achieve their cultivation realms, those who follow the Dao become Immortals, those who release become Buddhas, thoroughly enlightened and wholly awake–thus achieving perfection, thus becoming Immortals and Buddhas, not limited by lineage or species.

Immortals and Buddhas are such, and so are humans. Cultivators of the righteous path, once their merit is complete, can attain the Dao fruit of “human;” therefore, anyone, demon or devil, all beings and spirits can become human.

These principles, with the sound of the Dao, in an instant echo throughout the Divine Land, known profoundly by all beings, with heaven and earth resonating in response.

Instantly…

Flowers scatter from the heavens, golden lotuses surge from the earth, amidst these signs of Proving the Dao, the light of Mystic Yellow descends from the Nine Heavens, landing on the crown of the Sect Leader, transforming into celestial Qing Yun.

Heavenly Dao Merit!

Human Sect had just established its teachings, its doctrines are great vows; although not yet fully manifested, but with the status of the Sect Leader as an Earth Immortal and the Supreme Dao principles, it receives responses from heaven and earth, acknowledged by beings, transforming into descending merit and enhancing Qi Fortune.

Xu Yang seeing this, also raises his hand, with a ray of golden light shining from his palm, the Nine Forms Saint Sword resolutely emerges.

“This sword secures the Qi Fortune of Human Sect!”

The words once more chosen, heaven and earth correspond, the Nine Forms Saint Sword firmly emerges, a magnificent sword light piercing through heaven and earth, gathering all Qi Fortune Merit, becoming the treasure of the sect.

Now a sword, connecting heaven and earth, felt in the hearts of all beings, feeling an innate closeness, as if their fate is tied to this sword, prospering or suffering with it.

Thus, the Holy Sword transforms and ultimately becomes the treasure of merit, an object of Human Sect’s Qi Fortune, gradually fading within heaven and earth, merging with the Great Dao, connecting the heaven, earth, and human hearts.

Xu Yang, with a sweep of his sleeves, again addressed all beings: “I am the Taoist Master of Human Sect, obliged to teach all beings, and now here to preach, and all beings are invited to listen!”

This sound also reverberates throughout the land, across the Divine Land, the Five Domains, and among divine spirits.

“This…!”

Thus, after an unknown duration, people finally awaken, and looking up to the high skies, no longer seeing the Sect Leader’s figure, only a grand palace stands, spreading echoes of the Great Dao preaching, dim yet clear, puzzling yet enlightening, but still enlightening people to the mysteries of heaven and earth.

“How dare this be!”

Elsewhere, at the Great Profound Sect, Dragon and Tiger Mountain, several Supreme Mysterious True Immortals gathered around Zhang Dongting, looking at the lingering phenomena in the sky, recalling the recent proclamation of establishing the teachings, their feelings mixed with shock and anger, unable to express.

“Establishing teachings?”

“Just an Earth Immortal, daring to recklessly proclaim the establishment of a teaching?”

“Such actions are clearly intended to snatch the Qi Fortune of our Taoism!”

“Such a clever Human Sect, putting all beings as its foundation, human path as its result, aiming to use this teaching to accumulate merit, to achieve the Heavenly Immortal Dao?”

“Ambition of a wolf, ambition of a wolf!”

The immortals of Great Profound Sect, combined shock and anger, startlingly revealed.

Sect!

Within Divine Land, among Celestial Gate Holy Sects and Imperial Clans, there are not a few, but only three are deemed Great Sects–Great Profound Sect, Ahan Temple, and The Grand Academy, each representing the doctrines of Daoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism.

These Three Great Sects, unlike those so-called Holy Land Immortal Sects and Imperial Clans, a sect can label itself as Immortal Sect once a True Immortal emerges, and continuing to achieve Earth Immortal, could per opportunity establish an Imperial Dynasty.

But these Great Sects… Since ancient times, no new Great Sects have emerged!

Whether it’s Great Profound Sect, Ahan Temple, or The Grand Academy, their sect’s doctrines can be traced back before ancient times, to the era when the cosmos was undivided, and gods lived among humans.

Among them, the Great Profound Sect has the longest history, established in the Primordial era, followed by Ahan Temple established since the very ancient times, and finally, The Grand Academy in the ancient times.

However, whether in Primordial or ancient times, to establish a Great Sect’s doctrine, there is a stringent requirement: the Sect Leader, the opener of the path, must be a Heavenly Immortal.

Not being a Heavenly Immortal, not being a Taoist Master, how could one open a path and establish teachings?

Even as a Heavenly Immortal, without formidable capabilities, not positioned on the peak, one has no qualifications to open a path and establish teachings!

Because this involves merit, Qi Fortune, and even the contention of Dao fruits.

A Heavenly Immortal establishing a path, teaching all beings, can be favored by heaven and earth, recognized by human hearts, thereafter merit added, Qi Fortune protected, not only transcending difficulties but also wielding the forces of heaven and earth, the capabilities of human hearts, holding supreme authority.

Their Supreme Mysterious Ancestor of Great Profound Sect, together with Da Fan Buddha Ancestor from Ahan Temple and the Supreme Saint of The Grand Academy, by virtue of establishing teachings and educating beings, held great powers of heaven and earth, ranked atop among many Heavenly Immortal Taoist Masters, nearly reaching the existence of Golden Immortals.

Aside from that, the three great sects of their religion had continuously prospered due to the Qi Fortune Merit, producing an endless array of talent; Earth Immortals and Human Immortals abound. From this, a large number of sectarian branches emerged, and as of now in the Divine Land, the progenitors of each great Holy Land sect and Imperial Dynasty’s ancient clans mostly originated from the doctrines of these three sects.

This shows the significance of the position and Qi Fortune Merit of this great sect; let alone Earth Immortals, even Heavenly Immortals, if not at the absolute peak, overpowering all others, would not even dream of touching this.

But now…

He, an Earth Immortal, a newly ascended Earth Immortal, dares to establish a doctrine and a sect?

Isn’t this digging at the lifeline of their three great sects?

What qualifications does he, an Earth Immortal, have? What confidence?

If he succeeds, wouldn’t this land of Divine Land have to honor him, taking what he wants at will?

The immortals of Taixuan are filled with a mix of shock and anger!

Even though after ancient times, the heavens and earth separated, making communication difficult, their three great sects still maintained a transcendent status, unmatched by any.

Even if some Earth Immortals claimed to be Great Emperors, established imperial dynasties, and ruled the world, they still could not contest with them for the Qi Fortune of Divine Land, let alone presumptuously establish a sect.

It’s not just a matter of courage; even if some Earth Immortals are recklessly bold, wishing to establish their doctrines and snatch the teaching merit and Qi Fortune of Divine Land, they would eventually fail due to insufficient capabilities, and even die before achieving success, with their established sect doctrines and ideological principles not being recognized by heaven and earth, let alone discussing any teaching merits.

But this man…

How is it that he, an Earth Immortal, managed to resonate with heaven and earth?

Could it be that after ancient times, the standard of Divine Land lowered, along with the requirements for establishing a sect?

This is not right, after ancient times, some Earth Immortals, even after establishing imperial dynasties, also harbored ambitions to establish doctrines and seize Qi Fortune, yet all ended up failing before achieving, which shows the requirements for establishing doctrines have not been reduced.

But him…

Incomprehensible, utterly incomprehensible!

But whether comprehensible or not, the reality is before them, and they all must face it.

“Sect Leader!”

“What should we do now?”

The immortals looked back, anxiously inquiring and wanting to see how Zhang Dongting would handle it.

As the master of Dragon and Tiger Mountain, and holding an Imperial Arm, he, one of the few heavyweights of Taixuan Sect, had the most say in this matter.

However…

“If it is Heaven’s Will, what can we do?”

Zhang Dongting shook his head and without another word, turned and left.

Leaving the immortals of Taixuan looking at each other, at a loss of what to do.

Eventually…

“Let it be then!”

“Let him do it!”

“This man, must be a reincarnation of a Heavenly Immortal Taoist Master, not something humans can contend with!”

“With Divine Land in turmoil, his leadership might be a good thing!”

“To seek Qi Fortune and teaching merits, we will also have to see whether he can secure his standing.”

“That Ancient Demon Star, the root of chaos…”

The immortals exchanged glances and quickly came to a consensus.

Let him do it!

There was no stopping it anyway.

As he just crossed the Three Calamities, each with the count of ninety-nine.

What does this suggest?

Ordinary cultivators, if they could cross even one of these Three Calamities and break through the ninety-nine layers of the Innate Five Elements Divine Thunder, could achieve the Earth Immortal Dao Fruit, although not the strongest, an Earth Immortal is still an Earth Immortal, incomparable to Human Immortals.

If able to get through two of the Three Calamities, breaking through the ninety-nine Yin Yang Two Forms Divine Thunder, then one might achieve the Peak Dao Fruit of an Earth Immortal, referred to as Ancient Great Emperor since ancient times, the pinnacle existence among Earth Immortals, able to reign over all, suppress the mundane world, unmatched when Heavenly Immortals do not appear.

Generally speaking, this realm would be the limit of Earth Immortals.

But he surpassed this limit; under a situation of certain death, he broke through the ninety-nine layers of Chaos Divine Thunder, crossed Three Calamities, defying Heaven to prove the Dao.

With such capabilities, such deeds…

With no Heavenly Immortal emerging, who could govern him?

Their Taixuan Sect, although had potentiality, was only limited to Earth Immortals, even the Peak Emperor was hard to suppress, let alone him who surpassed the limitations of the Great Dao of heaven.

So… let him do it!
