Qi Yun, on the other hand, was quite interested in the comprehension of the stars and stayed to listen to the lecture.
Lu Yuan then visited the remaining nine lecture platforms one by one. After carefully listening to the lectures, he eliminated six platforms,
Finally, he chose the Divine Official Way, the Path of Ten Directions, and the Thousand Cranes Path as the main places for his lectures.
Among the three, the Divine Official Way was his favorite.
It was undeniable that the Green Shadow Master of the Divine Official Way had real abilities, which garnered him the praise of Liang State’s imperial court, allowing him to establish such a large Dao Veins.
After filtering out the rhetoric about ascending to the heavens and becoming a god, the remaining cultivation mental states, martial arts techniques, and even some Inborn comprehension were extremely beneficial.
Lu Yuan was at the stage of breaking through Innate, and it was precisely the time he needed all these insights and experiences. The teachings of the Green Shadow Master were the most in line with his intentions.
In a moment, three rounds of lectures had passed.
Ten platforms quickly received their promotion quota.
Divine Official Way, without a doubt, had the highest number of votes in the three rounds, making it the top performer in the lecture competition so far.
Followed by the Path of Ten Directions and the Taoist Immortal Path.
Fei Xia Way, one of the first round’s competitors, supported two rounds but was defeated in the third round. Not only it but other competitors from later Dao Veins also experienced failures.
Some couldn’t even get through the first round, and they lost face in front of the fellow Daoists from all over the world.
As a result, after witnessing these horrible results, other Dao Veins planning to take the stage for lectures became much more cautious, and the number of people on stage significantly decreased.
The Dao Veins striving for fame resorted to secret calculations and were anxious and troubled.
Meanwhile, people like Lu Yuan, who were there to listen to the lectures, were utterly engrossed and deeply immersed in them.
During the five-day lecture event, Lu Yuan stayed at more than ten different lecture platforms, listening to over ten Dao masters’ teachings that suited his preferences, and then his understanding rapidly improved.
It was true, as Yang Jing had said, that listening to those Dao masters’ lectures greatly benefited the Breaking through Innate.
At this point, after listening to a full session, Lu Yuan felt that his chances of breaking through Innate had increased significantly.
If before, he only had a sixty percent probability of breaking through Innate, now it must be at least seventy percent.
Although it may seem like just a 10 percent increase, it is still the breakthrough of the Innate stage!
Any slight improvement in the odds of breaking through at this stage is something to be celebrated for martial artists.
What’s more exciting is that this event isn’t just about the lectures but also features an even more fascinating discussion session.
After listening to the lectures for five days and resting for one night, Lu Yuan eagerly awaited the upcoming discussion session with high spirits.
During the previous five-day lecture period, nearly a hundred Dao Veins from twenty-three nations across the world and several overseas regions went on stage. However, only eleven of them successfully survived three rounds and advanced to the discussion session.
In the discussion session, the six major Dao Veins also personally competed. However, to maintain their prestigious status, they all had fixed lecture platforms and did not need to participate in the lecture competition.
This means that the remaining eleven Dao Veins could only compete for the remaining four platforms.
Eleven advancing to four meant that seven had to be eliminated, with an elimination rate of over 60%.
In order to ensure that their own Dao Veins would remain and secure a place among the top ten, the eleven progressing Dao Veins naturally utilized all their capabilities, resulting in fierce competition.
Such intense battles naturally enthralled the spectators below, especially some of the ingenious discussions, which secretly amazed and captivated people. The discussion session lasted for six days, with one debate taking place every half day. With four platforms, a total of forty-eight debates were available for the audience to witness.
As for the six major Dao Veins, no one dared to challenge their platforms to show support.
However, in order to demonstrate their strength, these six major Dao Veins did not participate in the debates but shared their own cultivation experiences instead.
However, their insights were different from those of other Daoists. They were more abstract and focused on the profound mysteries, much like the Taoist Classics, and were often hard to comprehend.
Lu Yuan heard from the audience around him that the teachings of the six major Dao Veins were indeed cultivation insights for Mental Techniques.
These were the true teachings of Immortals, which naturally gathered many listeners.
Those who attended the event were Daoists, and their lifelong pursuit was to seek Immortality. Now that someone was preaching the Immortal Technique, it naturally attracted a large crowd.
But no matter how many people gathered, they didn’t have access to actual Immortal Techniques or the Immortal Spirit Qi, so what could they achieve by mere listening?
Aside from further disappointment and frustration, there was nothing they could do.
Upon learning that these six major Dao Veins were giving lectures on Immortal cultivation, Lu Yuan began to pay attention to their teachings stealthily.
Other Daoists might not have been able to cultivate immortality, but he could.
Hearing about others’ cultivation experiences at this time would undoubtedly help Lu Yuan in the future, helping him avoid detours in his practice.
Thus, he ignored the intense debates on the side and focused on listening to the lectures.
With his spirits lifted, Lu Yuan began to listen to the Immortal cultivation experiences shared by the six major Dao Veins at their lecture platforms.
However, he was left confused as he listened.
As mentioned before, these cultivation experiences were remote and profoundly mysterious, just like the Taoist Classics. Without specific cultivation, it was impossible to understand what the speakers were talking about.
Even if he could understand some terms and references, he still could not grasp the subtleties.
However, Lu Yuan didn’t give up but continued to listen carefully and tried his best to memorize all the content he heard, turning it into notes after.
Through sheer force of memory and rote learning, he was able to jot down a significant portion of the teachings from the six major Dao Veins, with a thick notebook full of information, which could be considered a rich harvest.
And so, during these painful, busy, and fulfilling days, the six-day discussion session finally came to an end.
The time had come for the final day and the last session of the Dao assembly the Declaration of the Dao.
At this point, the True Persons of the six major Dao Veins would take the stage and perform the Dao.
They would demonstrate what true Immortal Techniques were before the assembled Daoists and proclaim why they deserved their positions.
Who wouldn’t envy the Daoist abilities and Immortal Techniques?
To be blunt, countless people attended the assembly just for this event.
On that day, Lu Yuan, like many other Daoists, arrived at the square with an excited heart..
