Chapter 886 A disciple of the Chan Sect, Laozi is filled with sorrow!
All of them can become registered disciples of my Chan Sect!
boom!
The majestic and mighty decree of the Primordial Celestial Venerable, like divine thunder from the heavens, resounded loudly in the minds of hundreds of millions of living beings at the foot of Kunlun Mountain!
In an instant, the atmosphere, which had been so fervent, strangely froze for a moment.
Registered disciple?
Down the mountain, among the countless kneeling figures, many powerful figures were slightly taken aback.
Who are they?
They are quasi-saints who have been famous throughout the primordial world for a long time, and whose mere stomp can shake the heavens and earth! They are ancient beings who have lived for countless years and witnessed the rise and fall of several great calamities!
For them to come and become my disciples is already an act of setting aside all their dignity and pride.
result……
Just give me the status of a nominal disciple?
What is this? Are you trying to fob me off like a beggar?
For a moment, many powerful figures felt an indescribable sense of humiliation and resentment.
However, this emotion only lasted for a moment before it was completely overwhelmed by an even more intense and frantic thought!
So what if I'm a registered disciple?!
So what if he's a direct disciple?!
What's the difference?!
Everyone knows perfectly well!
They came here not seeking the status of a disciple of the Chan Sect!
What they seek is that supreme opportunity to ascend to heaven in one step and attain the Dao of Hunyuan!
Who provided this opportunity?
Is it Yuanshi Tianzun?
Do not!
It is the Dao Ancestor Hongjun! It is the Heavenly Dao!
The Daoist Ran Deng attained sainthood, and that was personally orchestrated by the Dao Ancestor!
They joined the Chan Sect simply to show the Dao Ancestor and the Heavenly Dao an attitude: to pledge allegiance to the Xuan Sect and to serve the Heavenly Dao!
As long as one can enter the threshold of the Chan Sect, as long as one can be noticed by the Dao Ancestor, as long as one can become the next chosen one...
Let alone a disciple in name only!
Even if they were just gatekeepers or fire-tending monks, they would be willing to do it and flock to it like moths to a flame!
If I can become a saint, then I will be an existence on par with the Primordial Beginning.
Therefore, is it still necessary to worry about these small gains and losses right now?
"I am willing! This disciple is willing to become a disciple of the Chan Sect!"
"Your disciple kowtows in gratitude for the Holy One's mercy and grace!"
"This disciple is willing to die for the Xuanmen sect, even if it means dying ten thousand times!"
Once this was understood, the brief silence was instantly overwhelmed by a tidal wave of frenzied fervor!
Any hesitation or dissatisfaction from before had long been forgotten.
Instead, there was a deep, soul-stirring joy and gratitude!
Hundreds of millions of living beings once again bowed their heads in unison, their movements perfectly synchronized, their devout postures as if they were worshipping the supreme deity in their hearts.
The immense power of aspiration and fortune that gathered together almost materialized, condensing into a vast and boundless golden sea of clouds above Mount Kunlun, with auspicious energy rising and rays of light shining everywhere!
……
In Yuxu Palace.
Yuanshi Tianzun sat high on his cloud bed, overlooking the magnificent scenery below the mountain, exuding an unparalleled aura of dominance over the world.
He felt the immense fortune gathering around him and felt completely relaxed and clear-headed.
He slowly turned his head and looked at Lao Tzu beside him.
"Brother, look."
"This is the true spirit of my Xuanmen sect!"
"The Tongtian Jie Sect, which boasts of ten thousand immortals paying homage, is nothing compared to the magnificent scene of Kunlun today. It's nothing but the nonsense of those creatures with fur and horns, born from eggs and moisture!"
Yuan Shi's words were filled with smug pride.
He could almost see the scene of the Jie Sect's fortune being completely suppressed, and Tongtian bowing his head and admitting his mistakes before him.
We also saw Gu Changqing, who always made him suffer, become powerless and furious under the crushing force of the Heavenly Dao, and ultimately turn into ashes!
However, this time, Lao Tzu, who was sitting opposite him, did not agree with him as usual.
Laozi simply gazed at him calmly, and for the first time, an emotion that Yuanshi found unfamiliar appeared in those eyes that were as still as an ancient well.
It was a kind of scrutiny, a kind of exploration.
Yuan Shi felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you looking at me like that, brother?"
Lao Tzu then slowly withdrew his gaze and sighed softly.
"Second brother, you've changed."
This seemingly random statement startled Yuanshi Tianzun slightly.
"What do you mean by that, brother?"
Lao Tzu did not answer directly, but spoke to himself.
“In the past, when you and I established our teachings, you were the one who spread your teachings and accepted disciples. You valued lineage, fortune, and luck the most. Those who did not possess all three, even if they had extraordinary talent, would not be able to catch your eye.”
"Therefore, you prefer quality over quantity, and your disciples number only a dozen or so."
"But today..."
Lao Tzu paused, then raised his hand and pointed to the endless sea of people below the mountain.
“Yet you are willing to take all these billions of living beings into your fold, even if they are only nominal disciples.”
“This is completely different from your old ways.”
Upon hearing this, a look of disapproval appeared on Yuanshi Tianzun's face.
"Times change."
"Now is the time when a great calamity is about to begin, the time for our Xuanmen to flourish, sweep away the chaos of the world, and restore order! We must do extraordinary things!"
"Accepting these nominal disciples would firstly enhance the prestige of my Chan Sect, secondly divide the primordial fortune and weaken the Jie Sect, and thirdly, it would also help the Heavenly Dao select usable talents. Why not do it?"
Yuanshi spoke eloquently, clearly having planned this all along.
Lao Tzu listened quietly without offering any rebuttal.
However, his heart was ice-cold.
He knew his second brother all too well.
Arrogant and haughty, with a high opinion of himself, valuing his reputation above all else.
The reason we are taking this "accept all comers" approach today may seem to be in line with the times, but in reality... we are forced into it!
It was Tongtian's Jie Sect, and Gu Changqing, who gradually cornered them!
If it weren't for the overwhelming power of the Jie Sect, which made him feel suffocated, and if Gu Changqing hadn't repeatedly humiliated him, would he have lowered himself to use such a "filler" method to strengthen the Chan Sect?
Ultimately, this so-called magnificent Kunlun landscape is nothing more than a false prosperity forcibly created by Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
His second brother, however, was already immersed in this false sense of power, complacent and unable to extricate himself.
sad.
That is pitiful.
With the support of the Daoist Ancestor, the Chan Sect once again reached its peak of influence.
With Tongtian and the unfathomable Gu Changqing in charge, the future of the Jie Sect is extremely uncertain.
So……
Where is my teaching?
This thought flashed through Lao Tzu's mind like lightning, causing his eternally unmoved, tranquil Dao heart to surge with intense waves for the first time.
What followed was a deep sense of loss.
People's Education Press?
Even Lao Tzu himself found this name somewhat unfamiliar.
In the past, he established a lineage based on the destiny of the human race, which was called the Human Religion.
The head of the Three Pure Ones, and the eldest disciple of Hongjun.
Whether it's Yuanshi, Tongtian, Nuwa, Jieyin, Zhunti, or others, they all respectfully address me as Senior Brother Taishang.
However, since Gu Changqing rose to power, he has repeatedly defied fate for the human race, weakening the fortune and prestige of the Human Sect.
Later, Nuwa established the human world, making it a completely independent world!
It can be said that the People's Education System is now defunct in name only.
Thinking of this, Lao Tzu felt even more sorrowful.
