Investiture of the Gods Xiao Sheng, the Poor Taoist Priest, Even Rogue Cultivators Have Human Rights

Chapter 19: On the top of Jinao Island, the saint preaches!Chapter 19: On the top of Jinao Island, the saint preaches!
”Bah!”

The colorful divine bird flapped its wings and flew high, soaring above the nine heavens. Its wings shone with five colors: cyan gold, scarlet red, white, dark black, and brilliant gold. The colorful lights intertwined, illuminating the entire sky, showing its majestic appearance and exuding the aura of a dominant bird.

Especially when the five-colored feathers condensed, its cultivation realm also broke through a crucial bottleneck and was promoted to the Golden Immortal level in one fell swoop. The majestic Golden Immortal pressure rolled like thunder, covering thousands of miles of sea in an instant, causing all the spirits around it to tremble!

Experiencing the surging power in his body, the five-colored divine bird was extremely excited, knowing full well that he had undergone a complete transformation and was no longer the same as before.

Now, even among the ranks of Golden Immortals, relying on the power of Bifang’s bloodline, it can be regarded as a leader and is by no means an ordinary person.

And behind all this, it was all created by Xiao Sheng!
”Wow—”

The colorful phoenix flapped its wings, folded its beautiful wings, and slowly landed in front of Xiao Sheng. It crawled on the ground very respectfully, waiting for Xiao Sheng to step on its broad back.

There was admiration and enthusiasm in its eyes. It was obvious that it did not become arrogant because of the leap in strength. Instead, it followed Xiao Sheng even more devoutly.

This scene is shocking.

A cultivator in the Xuanxian realm can actually control a Golden Immortal realm mount of noble bloodline, and this mount is loyal to him!
”Very good.”

Xiao Sheng nodded slightly. With satisfaction, he strode onto the back of the five-colored phoenix and used the imprint of his soul to issue orders. In an instant, the five-colored phoenix let out a loud cry that pierced the sky, flapped its wings and soared, radiating five-colored divine light, heading straight for the abyss of the East China Sea and disappearing at the end of the horizon in an instant.

As the journey progressed, Xiao Sheng suddenly noticed that the surrounding area became noisy, and many demon cultivators and sea cultivators were rushing in the same direction.

Seeing this, Xiao Sheng became curious and didn’t understand why, so he casually waved his hand and pulled a huge sea turtle out of the sea.

The turtle was furious at first, but when he saw the scene clearly, he saw a colorful phoenix with five-colored divine light flowing, releasing the terrifying pressure of the Golden Immortal Realm. And on top of this colorful phoenix sat a human cultivator. It was obvious that this colorful phoenix was just a mount. He could not help but be extremely shocked.

As a mere Xuanxian realm sea creature, he was like an insignificant ant in front of a Jinxian realm powerhouse. How could he dare to offend him in the slightest? He immediately asked with extreme humility:

”I wonder what the Immortal has sent me?”

Xiao Sheng said in a deep voice: ”I saw many demon tribes and sea tribes heading to the same direction. I want to know what you are doing.”

The turtle was slightly surprised when he heard this, ”How come the Immortal didn’t know about this?”

The Five-Colored Phoenix shouted sternly: ”My master asked me questions, so I should report back immediately. How dare you say more?”

The turtle trembled when he heard the voice, and hurriedly apologized: ”Forgive me, Immortal, please forgive me.”

Immediately, it told the whole story.

It turned out that the reason why all the demons and sea creatures went in the same direction was that soon, the Jiejiao saint Tongtian would hold a lecture on Jin’ao Island, and any creature who could arrive at Jin’ao Island before the lecture began would be qualified to listen. So when the news spread, all the creatures in the East China Sea and even in the prehistoric continent became crazy and rushed to Jin’ao Island.

After all, that was the great truth taught by the saint himself!

Practicing in the ancient world is difficult, especially for independent practitioners, who often suffer from the inability to obtain orthodox methods of practice. The preaching of the saints symbolizes the most profound inheritance in the ancient world and will naturally attract countless creatures.

”A saint discussing the Dao?”

After Xiao Sheng heard this, his heart was moved. The saints of Heavenly Dao were the most powerful beings in the prehistoric world. Their understanding of the Great Dao was far beyond the reach of ordinary creatures. Every time they preached, it was undoubtedly an unprecedented opportunity that shocked the world!

As expected, this Jiejiao was just as rumored, with a very lenient entry level, and any creature could enter and practice there.

For all living beings in the prehistoric world, this is undoubtedly an unprecedented blessing. It has opened up a path to heaven for those wandering and helpless cultivators, allowing them to reach a higher level of cultivation.

This is also the reason why Jiejiao can gather heroes from all directions and is praised as ”the origin of the ten thousand immortals’ surrender”, which is indeed not groundless.

However, this move has both advantages and disadvantages, the disadvantage being that it is a mixed bag.

Although it allowed countless helpless cultivators to practice, it also allowed many bad character people to take the opportunity to infiltrate Jiejiao, such as the Jiejiao monster bird that devoured humans that Xiao Sheng encountered before.

In the long run, Jiejiao’s actions would undoubtedly sow the seeds of disaster for itself. But this was not within Xiao Sheng’s scope of worry.

What he needed to weigh at this moment was to seize this rare opportunity. Since there was a saint preaching on Jin’ao Island, he had to listen to it with his own ears no matter what.

After all, he is a saint who has insight into the way of heaven and his understanding of the great principles is unmatched. One will surely gain a lot from listening to the saint’s teachings.

Although he had conflicts with disciples of the Jiejiao Sect and even killed two of them.

But he has the protection of the Hongmeng barrier, which is enough to distort the secrets of heaven, and no living creature can detect this, so he is safe and sound.

Furthermore, the flow rate of time within the Hongmeng barrier can reach a hundred times faster, which means that when he listens to the Tao, he can have up to a hundred times more time to comprehend it than others.

With this calculation, you will definitely make a profit no matter what.

Therefore, Xiao Sheng made a prompt decision and decided to put aside the search for the lost treasure and money for the time being, and went to Jin’ao Island first to listen to the teachings of the sage.

So, after asking for the exact location, he released the turtle and then ordered the five-colored divine bird to fly straight towards Jin’ao Island.

”Wow!”

The five-colored divine bird flapped its wings and soared, crossing tens of millions of miles in an instant. The pressure of the Golden Immortal level swept out, shocking many monsters and sea creatures, who were all amazed at the tremendous power of the five-colored divine bird.

Most of those who went to listen to the teachings were cultivators at the True Immortal and Mysterious Immortal levels, and only a few could reach the Golden Immortal realm.

Those top-notch experts have probably already arrived at Jin’ao Island and are waiting for the lecture to begin.

The rest of the journey was uneventful. About three years later, Xiao Sheng finally saw a towering island standing proudly in front of him. It was majestic and awe-inspiring, presenting a myriad of auras.

A closer look is even more shocking:

The mist and clouds gather auspicious energy, and the sun and the moon radiate sacred light; the verdant ancient cypresses are intertwined with the clouds in the mountains, just like the autumn water and the sky are the same color; the blooming wild flowers reflect the morning glow, as if green peaches and red apricots are competing to bloom.

The colorful lights swirled and rolled, all derived from the purple mist surrounded by the brilliance of morality; the ethereal fragrance all came from the fresh fragrance nurtured by the innate Wuji.

The fairy peaches and fruits are as bright as golden elixirs; the green willows and poplars are as flowing as jade belts.

You can often hear the yellow crane singing in the heights, and often see the green phoenix dancing in the sky.

This place is far away from the troubles of the world, and only fairies and children come and go; the Jade Gate is tightly closed, and ordinary mortals are not allowed to peek in.

It is true: There are secrets hidden in the supreme wonderland, and few people know the mysteries here.

All kinds of fantastic miracles fully demonstrated the extraordinary demeanor of the Saint’s Cave Heaven, which made Xiao Sheng marvel again and again. He thought to himself that this was indeed the place where Emperor Tongtian founded his Taoist tradition, which was extraordinary.

At this moment, in the vast area on the edge of the island, many independent cultivators, demons, sea creatures and other beings have gathered. They are densely packed, with the number exceeding 100,000.

According to the regulations of Jin’ao Island, only life forms of Golden Immortals and below can move around in this realm.

The saint gave sermons in three grand ceremonies.

Each one lasts for a hundred years.

Each of these events is separated by a thousand years.

After understanding the rules, Xiao Sheng controlled the five-colored divine bird and landed in a corner of this area. He quietly found a position and waited for the opportunity.
