Refining the Dao into Godhood: A Tale of the Jie Sect
Chapter 40 [10 Ultimate Thunders, Discussing Dao at Nanji]

Chapter 40: Chapter 40 [10 Ultimate Thunders, Discussing Dao at Nanji]

Currently, the relationship between The Three Pure Ones is still decent. Due to the rules set by the Jie Sect, although there are occasional frictions between the Chan and Jie Sects, they are within controllable limits!

Originally, when Xuanqing left the mountain to travel, he did not take the Yuxu Glaze Lamp with him, instead entrusting it to Zhao Gongming and Yunxiao to alternate in command, allowing them to use the Washing Karma Golden Fire to screen disciples coming to Kunlun Mountain to seek apprenticeship.

Therefore, the current disciples of the Jie Sect, although they may have flaws in their mental states and varying talents, at least they are not tainted by any karma.

Seeing that the Tongtian Sect Master is about to leave Kunlun Mountain, the three Saints are also preparing to hold a debate conference to enhance the exchange among the disciples of the different sects, and meanwhile, explain the Great Dao of Saints to the disciples of the three sects once more.

This day, disciples from the Human, Chan, and Jie Sects gathered together in a White Jade Square, a space temporarily created by Taiching Laozi with great magical power, capable of enduring the divine skills of Daluo Golden Immortal cultivators.

For debating the Dao, it couldn’t be more appropriate.

The Chan Sect’s Huanglong True Master took the stage first, glancing around: "I am Huanglong, specializing in the Wuji Seal. I wonder which Daoist brother would be willing to enlighten me?"

"I will!"

Golden Hoop Immortal Ma Sui immediately responded.

Both were of the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm, with comparable strengths. Huanglong True Master had a physical advantage, but Golden Hoop Immortal, with his outstanding Escape Skill, could also compete with him.

However, since the debate was to stop at the point of clarity, both tacitly did not use Spiritual Treasures, and in the end, Huanglong was a notch higher, finding a flaw in Golden Hoop Immortal’s defense.

"I concede!"

Successfully claiming the first victory, Huanglong True Master felt somewhat proud of himself. Born into the Dragon Clan, he naturally carried karma. Although he ranks third among the Twelve Golden Immortals, he was not much regarded by Yuanshi Tianzun. Taking the lead this time was also to show off his skills, thereby gaining the attention of Yuanshi Tianzun.

Just as Golden Hoop Immortal stepped down, Golden Light Immortal eagerly took his place, wanting to demonstrate his abilities: "Daoist Huanglong, let me try your methods!"

His true form was a golden-haired beast, innately restraining the Dragon Clan. Even though Huanglong True Master had an exceptional physical body, he quickly lost to Golden Light Immortal.

"Good!"

Jie Sect disciples cheered in unison.

As for the three Saints, sitting on a cloud bed, they did not show much of their expressions.

The Chan Sect follows an elitist policy, while the Jie Sect believes in teaching without distinction. Most Jie Sect disciples may not compare to the Chan Sect’s Twelve Golden Immortals in terms of talent, but they are not inferior at all in terms of divine skills.

Subsequently, Chan Sect’s Ju Liusun, Wenshu, Ci Hang, Dao Heng, and others, as well as Jie Sect’s Qiu Shouxian, Lingya Immortal, and others also took turns to spar.

It was all about stopping at the right point!

Soon, Zhao Gongming took the stage, defeating the Spiritual Treasure Great Master and Taiyi True Master from the Chan Sect in succession, loudly cheered on by many Jie Sect disciples shouting praises for their "Brother’s valor"!

Seeing this, the Tongtian Sect Master could not help but laugh and said, "Big brother, second brother, how about it, isn’t my disciple pretty good?"

"Not bad!"

Yuanshi Tianzun nodded, but verbally remained unyielding: "But my Chan Sect disciples are stronger, Chi Jingzi, you go and try Zhao Gongming’s method!"

"Yes!"

Hearing the Saint’s decree, Chi Jingzi immediately went down, protected by the Yuqing Immortal Light, with water and fire flying about, directly evolving two Ancient True Dragons in the void.

He specialized in the "Primordial Nine Seals," particularly the "Yin Yang Seal," but he ingeniously used the "Water and Fire Mutual Assistance Method" to interpret the Dao of Yin Yang engendering each other.

"Well met!"

Zhao Gongming laughed heartily, continuously unleashing the Upper Pure Divine Thunder and manipulating a Bifeng, intending to dismantle the True Dragons evolved by Chi Jingzi.

The two were well-matched in their bout.

If Chi Jingzi had used the Ocean Stabilizing Pearl, he would naturally be no match for Zhao Gongming in a fair fight, but since this was a Dao debate, the test was their divine skills.

Zhao Gongming had already fought two rounds, his expression highly tense, with a significant amount of mana consumed. As a result, he eventually was defeated by Chi Jingzi.

Immediately following, Yunxiao took the stage, her Way of Mysterious Water combined with the Ultimate Tribulatory Way, quickly defeating Chi Jingzi, catching everyone present off-guard.

They never expected that Yun Xiao, who usually kept a low profile, had already touched the threshold of the Daluo Realm, with a strength even superior to Zhao Gongming.

"Nanji, you go!"

Seeing his favored Chi Jingzi quickly defeated, Yuanshi Tianzun’s face turned unsightly, and he immediately sent out Nanji Daoist, the strongest under the Chan Sect.

"Yes, Teacher!"

Nanji did not disappoint, his mastery of "Yuqing Divine Thunder" was to the utmost proficiency, containing the essence of all-encompassing concepts, and he even cultivated a whiff of the Primordial Truth.

Although Yun Xiao was strong, he was still slightly inferior to Nanji Daoist and was soon defeated.

"I’ll go!"

Jin Ling Saint Mother took the initiative.

With a raise of her hand, she wielded the inexhaustible Power of Stars. "Upper Pure Immortal Light" multiplied from one to ten, ten to a hundred, a hundred to a thousand, transforming into a sky full of stars bombarding Nanji Daoist.

Nanji Daoist also felt great pressure.

However, he had also comprehended the "Infinite Seal" from among the Primordial Nine Seals. A "Supreme Primordial Infinite Cloud" manifested and dissolved all of Jin Ling Saint Mother’s Divine Skills.

Afterward, he evolved an immense Thunder Sea, which directly engulfed Jin Ling Saint Mother.

"I concede!"

Nanji Daoist was also making a gesture of moderation.

Daoist Duobao was about to enter the fray but was stopped by Xuanqing: "Brother, how about I take on Nanji?"

He knew that both Nanji, as the eldest disciple of the Chan Sect, and Duobao, as the eldest disciple of the Jie Sect, desired to experience each other’s Divine Skills.

But Nanji Daoist’s path was somewhat similar to his own, both in the process of Refining a myriad of Divine Thunders. From what Xuanqing had seen thus far, Nanji Daoist had at least refined ten types of Divine Thunder, which was extraordinary. He was also eager to take the initiative and learn about the other’s Thunder Skill.

"Alright!"

Duobao did not refuse, merely smiling and saying: "Xuanqing junior brother, let me witness your strength!"

"Of course!" Xuanqing smiled lightly and immediately flew into the arena, greeting Nanji Daoist with a bow: "Nanji Daoist, please enlighten me!"

Nanji Daoist frowned slightly. Although Xuanqing broke through to Taiyi Golden Immortal later than he, having Refining three major Divine Thunders under the supervision of The Three Pure Ones, Xuanqing was definitely not a common existence; naturally, he wouldn’t let his guard down.

"Ten Directions Absolute Thunder!"

He made the first move, as "Yuqing Divine Thunder" transformed into a Great Dao net, sealing the void while ten types of Innate Divine Thunder turned into Thunder Dragons, striking towards Xuanqing.

Xuanqing neither dodged nor evaded, only invoking "Thunder God Authority" around his body, creating a "Thunder Electric Field" that engulfed all of Nanji Daoist’s Thunder Skill Divine Powers.

These ten Innate Divine Thunders each contained profound mysteries and were extremely powerful, including: Jade Core Thunder, Shenxiao Thunder, Great Dong Thunder, Immortal Capital Thunder, Beiji Thunder, Taiyi Thunder, Purple Mansion Thunder, Jade Morning Thunder, Taixiao Thunder, and Taiji Thunder!

"I am the Thunder God, destined to command all thunders!"

Xuanqing cried out loud, and with a flash of electric light around him, he shot the same ten types of Divine Thunder towards Nanji Daoist. The void immediately filled with roaring noises.

He possessed the "Innate Thunder Pool," capable of Refining all thunders, immediately making his Thunder Skill even closer to the essence after assimilating Nanji Daoist’s Innate Divine Thunder painstakingly evolved!

Nanji Daoist was greatly shocked and hurriedly activated the "Infinite Seal." A sky full of pure qi materialized, transforming into a "Supreme Primordial Infinite Cloud" three feet in front of him!

"One thunder becomes three thunders!"

However, this was not the end. After utilizing the "Thunder God Authority" to return the favor in kind, Xuanqing immediately invoked his self-comprehended "Xuanqing Divine Thunder," striking with overwhelming momentum. The electric light was swift and fierce, and the thunderbolts were as vast as the abyss, instantly splitting in the void into "Taiqing Divine Thunder," "Yuqing Divine Thunder," and "Upper Pure Divine Thunder"!

The void roared, the cosmos trembled, the immense power tearing through Nanji Daoist’s defenses in an instant.

"Nanji Daoist, I appreciate your leniency!"

Of course, Xuanqing too stopped at the right moment, withdrawing his Thunder Skill’s power after breaking through Nanji’s defenses.
