Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 1189 Dao Banquet: Dao Pillars

"Many people abandon cultivating the body after proving the Dao since they now exist on a conceptual level. But that is the wrong approach. The universe is all about balance, and the ...."

To everyone\'s surprise, Wang Wei spent 3000 years about [Essence], and the body refiners - who felt left out of this banquet - were the most excited. They finally had top-tier sermons dedicated solely to them. Moreover, the sermon was wonderful as it touched on countless ways to temper the body without any hidden injuries. Wang Wei even talked in detail about the True Power Dao Realm.

"[Spirit]," Wang Wei said. "Although I said it\'s the link between Essence and Qi, that\'s also an oversimplification. What is the difference between the mind and the soul? Is spirit the synonym of mind? Of the soul? The slight difference between these words contained the essence of [Spirit].

"The soul is the origin - the root of the mind, spirit, consciousness, and how we perceive reality. The mind is...."

Another 3000 years passed by, and Wang Wei showed the world his deep understanding of the soul. The Dao Rhymes he condensed formed a strange circle above the banquet, but no one noticed this phenomenon. By now, people had some expectations of how long and profound this sermon would be, so they focused on not missing anything and regretted it for the rest of their lives.

"[Qi]," Wang Wei stated, without giving anyone time to breathe. "It\'s not just the energy found in nature. Once again, that is an oversimplification. It\'s the breath of life that keeps our bodies and minds functioning. It\'s the very breath that Heaven and Earth exhaled - the foundation of all living creatures, sentient or not. It is the main key to the path of cultivation - to our continued evolution.

"Qi is the most versatile and malleable matter in existence. It can change based on the environment, the individual, and even your thoughts and emotions. It is...."

As he uttered his last word, the attendants had experienced 9000 years of top-tier sermons. These people could not wait to record what the Supreme Emperor said and leave it for their sect as a foundation. Although it would take a lot of effort and resources to perfectly record this kind of sermon, it will be worth it. These people did not trust the Dream World to record the experience better than those who experienced it personally.

"Dao," Wang Wei uttered, and the crowd almost cheered. They thought this was the limit. They immediately focused and listened as much as possible.

"Fate of Fire, Fate of Yin-Yang, Fate of Space-Time," Wang Wei continued. "All Daos may be different, but their destination is the same: use your Dao to affect, use, or control other Daos. All cultivators must strive to break the inherent definition of their Daos and elevate them to concepts and ideas surpassing their limits.

"For example, Flame Dao\'s essence is to burn. A normal cultivator will focus on that aspect and increase the intensity of their flames. A decent cultivator will tap into the explosive nature of fire, and a genius will focus on its ability to spread. However, a heaven-chosen will not be limited by the natural characteristic of the flame.

"There is a common saying: his anger burned as bright as flames. In truth, flames have nothing to do with anger - but it\'s often associated with it. After removing the limit of your Dao, you can condense Flames of Anger, meaning you\'ve used your flame to tap into the Seven Emotions Six Desires Dao.

"In many stories, myths, legends, and mortal civilization, flame is associated with the beginning of life. Terms like [Flame of Life] to refer to a person\'s vitality or life are common. By breaking your limit, you can condense a [Life Flame] and thus succeed in tapping into Life Dao with the Flame Dao.

"Flames can kill or even destroy things; in other words, Flame Dao can tap into Death and even Destruction Dao.

"The Fire Dao is not the only one with this ability - all Daos can. Some are inherently better at this concept than others, but it applies to all of them. Success depends entirely on the cultivator\'s willingness to open their mind."

Wang Wei continued his sermon, creating a clear path for everyone present for them to elevate their utilization of their Dao to a higher level. As for the top genius who was already at this level, he also showed them the deeper levels. Once the 3000 years ended, the people spent 1200 years digesting everything, and they all felt the time was too short.

Suddenly, the sky changed as the Dao Rhymes condensed from this 12,000-year sermon vibrated intently, releasing an intense purple light that could be considered a vision. Then, under everyone\'s gaze, the Dao Rhymes turned into 4-Dao Pillars that perfectly recorded the sermon. Better yet, these pillars were probably blessed by Heaven and Earth to make it easier to comprehend.

Everyone was immediately jealous, but Wang Wei calmly waved his hand to create another floating mountain and placed the pillars there. He also placed formation around the mountain with a snap of his finger.

\'That was unexpected,\' Wang Wei thought. \'Could something similar happen to all the Dao Rhymes from this banquet? Let\'s wait and see.\'

Everyone looked at this change with different eyes, especially Tong Ruobing.

\'What are you thinking?\' Mu Lei asked.

\'What do you mean?\'

\'You have that same look when thinking something out-of-pocket or crazy.\'

\'It\'s nothing like that,\' she replied.

\'Come on. I know you better than this,\' he added.

\'Fine. I\'m thinking of holding my own banquet.\'

Mu Lei was speechless. \'Are you crazy?\'

\'I\'m not.\'

"Don\'t you understand that any banquet after this one will pale in comparison? Plus, who will come to our banquet? We do not have the status to invite so many people.\'

\'You may not, but I do.\'

Mu Lei was not stupid and immediately understood what she meant; \'You want to invite the Talisman Emperors?\'

\'Not just them,\' she replied. \'I\'m deeply respected in the talisman community, and after this banquet, I also have some pull in other professions. If I invited them - especially with the promise to share the Dao Rhymes - it\'s possible to have a small banquet.\'

Although it will pale compared to this one, no one should expect to reach this level, probably ever. Her main objective is to benefit the Great Talisman City - especially since there are a few complaints that she did not do enough because of her role as the Queen in another world community.

\'It could work,\' Mu Lei said. \'But you would have to wait for a while until the effect of this one abates.\'

\'You\'re right, but I also need to start contacting these people immediately since most of them are probably preparing to ascend,\' Tong Ruobing added.

\'But what about Wang Wei and the Dao Opening Sect? What are you going to do with them?\'

\'I doubt Wang Wei will care since I won\'t be the only person with this idea. The problem is if we want our small banquet to be official and posted in the Dream World, we can\'t move around them,\' Tong Ruobing said before sighing. \'In fact, the best way for this to succeed would be to invite Yan Liling.\' However, she would lose too much Dao Rhymes if he invited the latter.

While everyone was distracted by the Dao Pillars or thinking about possibly having their own small banquet, Sage Duan Ru\'s soul suddenly stood up and bowed, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for spreading the Dao." People secretly criticized that shrewd mortal. All 100 million or more immortals stood up and bowed to Wang Wei.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for spreading the Dao." Their voices formed a cacophony of beautiful sounds that spread throughout Heaven and Earth. It was beautiful seeing so many powerful entities bowing to one person. However, Wang Wei was calm. After all, this was not the first time, and it definitely won\'t be the last. At this point in his life, glory and worship were normal things, and as he became more powerful, even more powerful beings would bow to him until one day, even Grand Dao would have no choice but to do the same.

"You\'re welcome," Wang Wei nodded before giving him another blessing to continue his soul. "But as I hinted, I\'m not today\'s main event." The people then remembered there was still one more guest to appear, and they were curious who was nobler than the Supreme Emperor to be the final guest of such an event.
