Chapter 141: Virtue Is a Fine Thing.
In Li Tianwei’s own view, his personal Dao might soon find its answer.
Just as before, Li Tianwei rose into the air, sat cross-legged in midair, and set up a dais to preach his Dao.
At this moment, Li Tianchen had no mind to pay attention to the strange phenomena in the Sacred Land of Lingxu. It was obvious that the moment Li Tianwei appeared, all attention was drawn toward him.
"Use practice as the blade, sever the shackles of concept; matter is indestructible……」
Li Tianwei sat cross-legged, speaking earnestly. After all, the tens of thousands of words he had prepared for this sermon hadn’t yet been finished!
Under his guidance, the entire Sacred Land of Lingxu was no longer as before. Everyone was so harmonious and friendly! They communicated and guided one another, no longer divided between inner and outer disciples.
Each had their own specialty. Perhaps someone was stronger than you in another aspect—thus they learned from one another, communicating and transforming completely.
It could be said that when one treated others with Virtue, others would naturally treat one with Virtue in return.
High above, Li Tianwei continued his preaching, while those disciples who had previously been influenced by him had completely immersed themselves.
They all wore expressions of deep concentration, occasionally showing faint glimmers of realization.
As for Li Tianchen on the side, he had just emerged from his shock when Li Tianwei’s incomprehensible words rang by his ear.
"Matter is indestructible; spiritual roots require practice; aptitude demands verification; spells are not unified, each has its own insight.」
Li Tianchen listened with a completely bewildered face.
Even Elder Ling within his ring was the same—he did not understand at all the meaning behind Li Tianwei’s words.
Yet somehow, Li Tianchen felt that what Li Tianwei said was very reasonable—it was a completely different way of thinking and reasoning.
"Elder Ling, what exactly is my big brother talking about? You’re a senior—you should understand a little, right? Is this the secret to his strength?」
Li Tianchen could not help but ask.
"Ah! Th-this……」
Seeing Li Tianchen ask this way, Elder Ling was equally at a loss. He didn’t really understand either—it all sounded like clouds and mist to him.
"Perhaps it is the Dao. Your elder brother’s talent is extraordinary; maybe he’s speaking of his own Dao.」
"This is an opportunity—not everyone is so selfless, willing to share their personal Dao with others.」
Though Elder Ling did not understand, he had experience and insight. He immediately connected this to such a possibility.
In his eyes, Li Tianwei’s talent was extraordinary—truly a peerless Heaven-Defying Genius. Therefore, his words must be reasonable; there was nothing wrong with what he said—he simply could not comprehend it himself.
"Is that so？」
Li Tianchen was still somewhat doubtful. Yet when he saw the disciples beside him, also listening to Li Tianwei’s preaching, all wearing thoughtful expressions and sometimes showing signs of enlightenment, he began to doubt himself.
After all, if these ordinary disciples didn’t have this problem, how could he? It must be that he simply hadn’t understood yet—it was definitely not Li Tianwei’s teaching that was at fault.
Li Tianwei looked down and saw that the disciples below were showing signs of comprehension. He was especially satisfied with this sermon.
Surely, before long, the disciples of the Sacred Land of Lingxu would all understand the essence of Virtue.
At last, Li Tianwei slowly stood. The Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity manifested once more. Behind him appeared a five-colored Wheel of Merit. The power of the scripture revealed itself—its pure brilliance dazzling to the extreme.
As the scripture manifested, its radiance shone downward, and the disciples below all closed their eyes to quietly feel it.
This included Li Tianchen and the other returning disciples—those listening to Li Tianwei’s preaching for the first time.
At this moment, Li Tianchen felt his body and mind completely cleansed; a faint white light illuminated everything in the world.
Li Tianchen seemed to feel himself return to his mother’s embrace—his emotions washed clean. Meanwhile, everything Li Tianwei had preached continued to echo beside his ears.
"Glimpse the truth—use practice as the blade—between right and wrong……」
At this moment, Li Tianchen felt a sense of enlightenment. He finally understood why, when Li Tianwei preached before, those disciples would also reach comprehension.
"So that’s how it is. My choice at the Heaven-Burning Abyss wasn’t entirely right. My divine ability still has room to improve.」
Thinking of this, Li Tianchen finally understood why Li Tianwei had managed to reach the Golden Core Realm within a year and even comprehend divine abilities.
A person who could perceive so many truths of the world—how could his cultivation not progress swiftly!
"Li Tianchen, Li Tianchen……」
At this moment, Elder Ling within the ring was constantly calling out to him.
No matter what, Elder Ling had once been an Out-of-Body Realm existence. Naturally, he noticed the abnormalities after Li Tianwei displayed the Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity.
That invisible influence constantly reflected everyone’s own thoughts, allowing others to share in the feeling of comprehension.
If one’s mind wavered even slightly, one would be completely affected.
Among the beings Elder Ling knew, the Buddhist sect was similar. They had a method—by loudly declaring “This thing is fated with me,” or “This person is fated with me,” and with sufficient control, they could make even a powerful cultivator sink into the Buddhist path.
Li Tianwei’s method was extremely similar, yet still different—in that Li Tianwei was utterly unreserved.
Unfortunately, Elder Ling’s calls were useless. Under the cleansing of the Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity, Li Tianchen’s inner jealousy completely melted away. He even reanalyzed all of his own understanding and everything he knew.
What exactly in White Profound City had bound him?
"Is there truly a difference between the legitimate son and the concubine’s son? What defines a spiritual root? Why does disparity exist at all?」
By this point, everything had become somewhat blurred.
But what Li Tianchen gained was greater enlightenment.
"Virtue.」
Li Tianwei stood suspended in midair. With the manifestation of the Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity and the Wheel of Merit, white light shone across all rivers and valleys.
The disciples below had eyes growing ever brighter. Visibly, they became more determined—as though they had found their personal truth and comprehension.
Many disciples, under this influence, broke through once again.
"Virtue……」
More and more people responded, their gazes all gathering upon Li Tianwei high above.
Everyone was excited.
Seeing this, Li Tianwei smiled gently and nodded. "Fellow Daoists, the Dao we pursue is to seek that unreachable absolute truth.」
"The Evil Demons, the Demonic Cultivators, and those burdened with heavy sins—none shall hinder us.」
"We shall do only one thing—let the world be without extreme evil.」
"Virtue.」
As Li Tianwei’s voice spread, the disciples below immediately echoed in unison—
"Virtue.」
A single, simple word—yet it contained the very essence.
Hearing it, Li Tianchen finally understood why, upon returning to the Sacred Land of Lingxu, the disciples communicated this way—it all stemmed from Li Tianwei!
But was there anything wrong with that? Wasn’t Virtue a fine thing?
Li Tianchen then joined them, speaking together.
"Virtue.」
