Taishang arranged for the people of the Witch and Demon races to reside on Sanqing Peak, which was then officially opened.
The first batch of disciples of the Daoist sect came from various parts of the Primordial World, each possessing their original cultivation techniques, thus not requiring too much effort from Sanqing.
Watching the Daoist sect gradually establishing itself on the right path, Taishang nodded with satisfaction and said to Yuanshi and Tongtian,
"Second brother, third brother, now that the disciples have the enlightenment of the Daoist elders, we can also rest for a while!"
Yuanshi and Tongtian nodded and replied,
"Indeed! With the elders, we don't need to worry about our disciples; we only need to guide them from time to time!"
Taishang smiled slightly and said,
"Second brother, third brother, since we became saints, we haven't had a single discourse on the Dao. Now that we are free, why don't we go to my Taiqing Palace to discuss the Dao? Let me see how far you brothers have progressed!"
Yuanshi and Tongtian exchanged glances and said,
"Excellent! Excellent! We also wish to see how far Elder Brother has progressed!"
Taishang laughed heartily and said,
"Alright, let me also show my brothers if this elder brother is just famous for nothing!"
After Taishang finished speaking, the three of them left the Sanqing Hall and headed towards Taiqing Palace!
In Taiqing Palace, the three saints sat in a triangular formation, facilitating communication between them.
Taishang began,
"Taishang cultivates inaction, yet achieves all. The Great Dao of Inaction, manifest!"
As Taishang spoke, the Great Dao of Inaction materialized in the void behind him.
Yuanshi continued,
"Following the heavens and responding to the times, expounding on nature, elucidating heavenly principles. The Great Dao of Elucidation, manifest!"
After Yuanshi finished, the Great Dao of Elucidation also materialized behind him.
Tongtian followed closely and said,
"The Great Dao has fifty, and the heavens evolve forty-nine! Slaughter is ruthless, and through separation, existence is born! The Great Dao of Severing, manifest!"
After Tongtian finished, the Great Dao of Severing likewise materialized behind him.
Three distinct auras suddenly surged into the sky from Taiqing Palace!
Nuwa in the Wa Huang Palace sensed these three special auras and knew that the Three Pure Ones were likely discussing the Dao. She immediately began to carefully comprehend these suddenly manifested Great Daos.
In the Underworld, Houtu also sensed the manifestation of the three Daos and immediately put down her work to quietly comprehend the discourse of the Three Pure Ones.
On Mount Sumeru in the West, Jieyin and Zhun Ti sensed the three Daos emanating from Kunlun. Jieyin said,
"Junior brother, the Three Pure Ones are discoursing on the Dao. Although we are Heavenly Dao Saints, this Hunyuan Great Dao can still be of great help to us. We must not miss this opportunity!"
Zhun Ti nodded and replied,
"Do not worry, senior brother. A discourse among saints is a rare encounter and should not be wasted!"
On Sanqing Peak, Zhen Yuanzi sensed the aura of the Three Pure Ones' Daos and sighed,
"A discourse at the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm! No one in the entire Primordial World dares to do this except for these three Daoist friends!"
At this level of cultivation, if the intention of the discourse is impure, it could lead to a backlash from the Great Dao. Once a Dao injury is sustained, it is not easily healed, especially a wound from the Great Dao! This was the reason for Zhen Yuanzi's sigh.
After sighing, Zhen Yuanzi immediately condensed a spiritual avatar, while his true form rushed to the front of Taiqing Palace to observe the discourse of the Three Pure Ones.
After all, a discourse at this realm is a rare opportunity, and only the Three Pure Ones, sharing the same origin, dared to undertake it.
Although Saints could perceive the entire Primordial World with a single thought, being closer allowed for a clearer observation than being further away.
It was also because he was a member of the Daoist sect. If others dared to approach so closely, they might be attacked by the three Great Daos of the Three Pure Ones before they even got near.
The Daoist elders on Sanqing Peak also sensed the fluctuations of the Dao patterns. This discourse among the Three Pure Ones was a rare event even for Saints, and everyone naturally did not want to miss it. They all headed towards Taiqing Palace.
Upon reaching the gate of Taiqing Palace, they saw Zhen Yuanzi and subsequently sat down cross-legged behind him.
In Taiqing Palace, after the manifestation of each of the Three Pure Ones' Great Daos, they mutually used the Daos of the other two to hone their own.
As the discourse deepened, the Three Pure Ones began to form hand seals and cast divine abilities. They were not only tempering their own Daos with the Daos of the others but also verifying their divine abilities.
As the discourse delved deeper, gradually approaching the core of their respective Great Daos, Taishang, Yuanshi, and Tongtian's brows furrowed, and the more the discourse deepened, the more their brows knitted.
Taishang suddenly felt that the Great Daos of Yuanshi and Tongtian were showing signs of conflict. He had not noticed this when the discourse first began!
However, as the discourse progressed and they delved into the core of their respective Daos, Taishang gradually realized that the Great Daos of Yuanshi and Tongtian were developing in a somewhat peculiar direction, as if they were two individuals with a deep-seated hatred for each other!
Furthermore, their personalities were akin to being extremely volatile, as if two people would draw swords upon meeting!
Taishang sensed that something was amiss, but at this stage of deep exchange, if the discourse were to be forcibly stopped, it would inevitably lead to a backlash from the Great Dao.
Taishang, bracing himself, placed his Dao of Inaction between the Great Dao of Elucidation and the Great Dao of Severing held by Yuanshi and Tongtian!
Not only Taishang but also Yuanshi and Tongtian sensed this. Their Great Daos seemed to be "at odds" with each other, and their perception was even keener than Taishang's. Influenced by their respective Daos, they felt an urge to attack each other!
Yuanshi was greatly alarmed, not understanding how such thoughts could arise in his mind.
Although Tongtian sometimes acted in ways that displeased him, Yuanshi, despite his verbal reprimands, had never harbored the intention to attack Tongtian.
Tongtian was also startled by his own thoughts. Although he sometimes found his elder brother annoying, Tongtian knew that Yuanshi cared for him, and their usual exchanges were merely lighthearted banter.
Even when he was beaten by Yuanshi before reaching the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm, Tongtian had never conceived of attacking Yuanshi.
Neither of them understood that they could be influenced by their own Daos to the point of wishing to attack each other. In that instant, both Yuanshi and Tongtian felt a surge of panic, causing their respective Daos to nearly go berserk!
Fortunately, Taishang's Great Dao of Inaction suddenly intervened between their Daos, allowing Yuanshi and Tongtian to regain control.
They both broke out in a cold sweat and dared not be distracted any further.
