Everyone had different thoughts.
Some people had only heard of the Enlightenment Tea Tree and felt that Old Ancestor Wang was very generous to act without holding a grudge, but a small number of well-informed people knew that these seeds actually had little value. However, since he was a Heavenly Human Realm expert, no one dared to comment.
Ning Qi watched from below, a flicker of anticipation in his eyes.
Since he began researching and cultivating the true martial peach tree, he had gained a lot of experience in this area. Perhaps he could cultivate this Enlightenment Tea Tree, and even further optimize it in the future.
By then,
The True Martial Sect could have an additional foundation, and it could also help him in his Dao Comprehension.
However, the specific operation would depend on the condition of the seeds.
Old Ancestor Wang's uneasiness did not last too long, as gazes gradually converged on Qing Niu Daoke.
Among the Heavenly Human Realm experts present today, he was the only one who had not presented a congratulatory gift. Coupled with his status on the celestial human rankings, it made people even more curious about what kind of treasure he would present.
Even Immortal Master Baihe and Xiaoyao Jun were somewhat curious.
After all, experts on the celestial human rankings were always mysterious, and opportunities to see them were rare.
Qing Niu Daoke was unhurried. He had been eating meat heartily as if no one else was around. After swallowing a mouthful of meat, he let out a long breath and laughed heartily:
"Dragon Mountain Daoist, I came in a hurry this time and didn't prepare any decent congratulatory gift for you. On the way here, I happened to encounter a fierce tiger harming people, so I took its inner core. Please accept it for now, and I'll find an opportunity to give you a better one later."
As soon as he finished speaking,
A beast king inner core, glowing with lightning, floated up from Qing Niu Daoke's hand. A trace of extremely fierce aura still lingered on it, and the faint roar of a fierce tiger could be heard, causing even Gang Yuan Realm experts to feel a tremor in their hearts.
The Zhenwu Dojo gradually fell silent, with gazes fixed on the lightning-infused inner core, filled with awe and emotion.
"beast king inner core!"
"So effortless and relaxed, is this the strength of a celestial human rankings expert?"
"Could this be the inner core of the Flying Thunder Tiger Beast King from Leizhou? I once had the chance to glimpse it from a distance in the Blackwater Great Marsh. I never expected to see it again in this manner. Life is truly unpredictable."
Low whispers continuously arose. As soon as a celestial human rankings expert made a move, it immediately overshadowed everyone else before him.
Ning Qi looked at the inner core, also filled with admiration.
What is a Beast King?
Only exotic beasts capable of rivaling Human Race Heavenly Human Realm experts are qualified to be called Beast Kings.
In other words,
This Qing Niu Daoke had effortlessly slain an exotic beast comparable to a Heavenly Human Realm expert, and even used its inner core as a congratulatory gift. His immense strength was undoubtedly revealed. Not only that, but this beast king inner core was also incredibly precious.
Exotic beast inner cores are inherently valuable, and only the best among exotic beasts can condense them. For example, the Ninggang Pill that Ning Qi had previously researched was primarily made from exotic beast inner cores, but using a beast king inner core to refine a Ninggang Pill would undoubtedly be overkill, as it has more precious uses.
"On that inner core, there seems to be residual Heaven and Earth Power?" Ning Qi's eyes flickered slightly, and he unexpectedly felt a rare trace of longing for that inner core.
Amidst everyone's exclamations,
Dragon Mountain Daoist was moved and expressed his gratitude:
"Brother Qing Niu, your presence on True Martial Mountain is already the most precious gift!"
This was truly not flattery.
Once the news spread that Qing Niu Daoke was attending Dragon Mountain Daoist's Heavenly Human Grand Ceremony today, any other Heavenly Human Realm experts who wished to move against the True Martial Sect in the future would have to weigh the importance of this celestial human rankings expert.
Qing Niu Daoke just smiled and waved his hand.
He had always thought highly of Dragon Mountain Daoist.
Now, it was even more proven that his judgment was correct.
Above the Zhenwu Dojo,
Everyone still felt somewhat unsatisfied.
The various treasures opened everyone's eyes. This was one of the meanings of participating in a grand event: to broaden one's horizons and to have something to boast about in the future.
However,
As the excitement of presenting congratulatory gifts gradually subsided, everyone's anticipation also rose. Next... it was time for the main event of this Heavenly Human Grand Ceremony.
Dragon Mountain Daoist also didn't waste time.
He stood up, his Daoist robe gently swaying, his gaze sweeping across the entire venue, a smile on his face:
"Today, all of you have traveled thousands of miles to True Martial Mountain to attend this old Daoist's Heavenly Human Grand Ceremony. This poor Daoist is immensely grateful and has no means to repay you, except to share the Dao of the Heavenly Human with all of you."
"However, this poor Daoist has only just glimpsed the Great Dao of the Heavenly Human. If there are any inaccuracies in my sermon, I ask for your understanding."
This latter sentence was directed at the four Heavenly Human Realm experts.
After all, he was the least experienced and had been in the Heavenly Human Realm for the shortest time.
However,
Dragon Mountain Daoist also had his own confidence.
His Comprehension Ability was not low, and his half-year of seclusion had already given him his own insights into the Dao of the Heavenly Human. But most importantly, he had the 'Heaven and Earth United as One' secret art that Ning Qi had given him previously. This secret art had elevated his understanding of resonating with Heaven and Earth by more than one level!
The crowd in the Dojo shouted in unison:
"We shall engrave Immortal Master's sermon into our hearts!"
Their gazes were extremely fervent, especially those Core Formation experts, even more so.
Read the error-free version at 1619shuba!
The few Heavenly Humans also gradually became solemn.
Those who could ascend to the Heavenly Human Realm were not simple. Listening to others' insights was not a bad thing for them. Although Dragon Mountain Daoist had just entered the Heavenly Human Realm and was most likely not as good as the four of them, the necessary respect still had to be given.
The Zhenwu Dojo was utterly silent; a pin drop could be heard.
Dragon Mountain Daoist sat cross-legged, his figure gradually rising.
He slowly closed his eyes, myriad thoughts Come to mind, and began to speak:
"The so-called Dao of the Heavenly Human is to unite man with Heaven, and spirit with Heaven. How to unite? It is to fuse the spirit with the Core Formation, reaching a state of no thought, no desire, no impurity, no dust..."
"..."
"Resonating with Heaven and Earth allows one to leverage the Heaven and Earth Power with human strength, turning decay into wonder, and the impossible into the possible..."
"..."
"In the Heavenly Human Realm, one cultivates the three flowers of Heaven, Earth, and Man. The Human flower belongs to essence, the Earth flower belongs to Qi, and the Heaven flower belongs to spirit. When the three flowers of Heaven, Earth, and Man gather at the crown, wondrous things occur..."
"..."
Dragon Mountain Daoist spoke eloquently, his voice slow but containing a mysterious power. He was attempting to communicate with the Heaven and Earth Power, trying his best to articulate his insights clearly.
These guests had traveled far and brought valuable congratulatory gifts, so Dragon Mountain Daoist naturally wouldn't be stingy. Although he wouldn't impart everything as he did to Ning Qi, he did his best to share some insights beneficial to them, so they wouldn't return empty-handed.
At this moment,
One by one, the martial arts experts listened with rapt attention. Some showed joy, then immediately fell into confusion. Some grasped a glimmer of inspiration, unable to fully comprehend it at once, and began to rack their brains to seize this fleeting opportunity.
Many others, whose Realm was too low, understood nothing. They scratched their heads in frustration but still tried their best to remember the content of the sermon.
Everyone felt admiration for Dragon Mountain Daoist in their hearts. Whether he was speaking genuinely or not, everyone could feel it.
Not just on True Martial Mountain.
As soon as Dragon Mountain Daoist began his sermon, True Martial Sect Disciples constantly ran back and forth, conveying the content of the sermon one by one to Zhenwu City. Although the effect was not as good as listening directly in the Zhenwu Dojo, at least the content was complete and without error.
Zhenwu City was also in an uproar.
And the few Heavenly Human Realm experts,
Also nodded secretly, a faint appreciation rising in their eyes. Dragon Mountain Daoist's Comprehension Ability was indeed extraordinary.
But this thought did not last long.
Doubt began to surface in their hearts, and their expressions grew more serious.
Dragon Mountain Daoist continued to speak:
"The Realm of Heaven and Earth United as One, with the spirit uniting with the Core Formation, is one aspect. Can there be a second? The Core Formation is Acquired through cultivation. Can there be an Innate object within the human body that resonates with Heaven and Earth? ..."
At this, even Qing Niu Daoke's eyes became solemn.
What he was saying... seemed to have some substance?
