I start by marrying Yunxiao, who's in a vegetative state; I'm invincible in the primor

Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, Xieyue Sanxing Cave.

Dawn breaks.

The disciples were meditating on their meditation cushions, having woken up early.

Absorbing the first wisp of purple light between heaven and earth.

Sun Wukong stretched and yawned; he hadn't felt this comfortable in a long time.

The temple was filled with spiritual energy, and the atmosphere was peaceful and serene.

"Junior brother, get ready to listen to the sermon."

"They're here."

Sun Wukong and Ao Cai followed their fellow disciples to the Dao Platform and found suitable prayer mats to sit down.

It was the hour of Chen (7-9 AM).

As the Daoist energy flowed, Pangu revealed his form.

"Today's sermon."

When Pangu preached, there were no extraordinary phenomena like those of Hongjun's preaching, such as purple clouds coming from the east, golden lotuses emerging from the earth, and countless auspicious signs.

As Pangu preached, a mysterious mist floated around him!

What is the profound?

Guangyun, who was the first to join the sect, had already cultivated to the peak of the Golden Immortal realm.

The Daoist teachings he heard were those of the Golden Immortal and Taiyi Golden Immortal realms!

The other junior brothers heard Taoist teachings from various sources, including those of Xuanxian, Zhenxian, and Xuanxian!

As for the Taoist teachings that Sun Wukong and Ao Cai heard, they were the most basic ones!

The foundation of Taoism!

This is called: A Thousand Faces for a Thousand People!

Different creatures hear and understand completely different things!

Pangu preached without any unusual phenomena or auspicious omens, yet his disciples listened with rapt attention, completely absorbed and unable to extricate themselves.

I don't know how much time has passed!

The rising sun turned into a setting sun.

The sound of Pangu preaching ceased.

The disciples suddenly awoke from their trance.

"That concludes today's sermon."

Guangyun stood up respectfully and bowed deeply, saying, "Respectfully seeing off our teacher."

Before the illusory image of Pangu departed, its lingering voice called out, "Yuanyin, come here."

Ao Cai was still in a daze.

Guangyun quickly said, "Junior sister, the teacher is calling you."

Ao Cai then came to her senses and quickly bowed, saying, "Yes!"

Guangyun smiled and said, "When a teacher instructs his disciples, he will teach them completely different techniques based on each disciple's talent."

"The teacher is about to impart his teachings to you!"

Ao Cai is of dragon race origin and is the sixth princess of the East Sea. She has no shortage of cultivation resources or techniques!

After all, the Dragon Clan possesses the top-tier cultivation techniques of their ancestral ancestor, the Ancestral Dragon!

It's just that the dragon race has heavy karma, making cultivation quite difficult.

"We came together, why did the teacher only summon me... and not Monkey King...?"

Ao Cai was worried for Monkey King.

Guangyun laughed and said, "Don't rush, the teacher will definitely observe and then teach according to the student's aptitude."

Sun Wukong's mind was relatively calm. "Junior sister, hurry up and go. Don't keep our teacher waiting."

"I'm not in a hurry. The path of cultivation cannot be rushed. It should be neither too fast nor too slow, neither too tight nor too loose."

"Okay, great!"

Ao Cai went to see Master Subhuti!

The rear hall.

Pangu sat quietly on the futon, his body radiating Taoist energy.

Ao Cai entered the back hall and bowed respectfully, saying, "Disciple greets Master."

Pangu slowly opened his eyes and said, "Hmm."

Pangu spoke, "The dragon race should revere the Ancestral Dragon, for the Ancestral Dragon possesses the bloodline of a true dragon, a nine-clawed true dragon!"

"By your generation, due to karma and lack of talent, you may not even have a single claw!"

It's not that Ao Cai didn't have a single claw after revealing her true dragon form!

If you can see the claws, they must exist!

Pangu refers to the dragon claw that was nurtured. This dragon claw is illusory, but it can prove the purity of bloodline, aptitude, and strength of cultivation!

Ao Cai quickly replied, "What the teacher says is absolutely right."

"I've heard my father say that after the Dragon-Han War, our Dragon Clan was burdened with immense karma, making cultivation extremely difficult!"

"The clan can no longer produce disciples with pure dragon blood. And when an outstanding disciple is finally born, he always dies from various accidents after reaching a high level of cultivation."

With good fortune bestowed upon him, his cultivation efforts become twice as effective; he is a child favored by Heaven.

On the contrary, burdened by karma, spiritual practice is difficult, truly making one a child of divine retribution!

Pangu smiled calmly, "I have two methods."

"First, the True Dragon Body Refining Technique. This method can help you forge a powerful dragon body and cultivate to the peak, perhaps even rivaling the Ancestral Dragon."

Upon hearing this, Ao Cai was utterly shocked. "Comparable to the Ancestral Dragon Ancestor? I... this disciple... dare not even imagine... never even thought of it..."

Pangu smiled without saying a word. Her temperament was far inferior to Sun Wukong's, and she did not understand that once cultivation begins, it is endless.

The path to enlightenment is endless!

She'll understand later.

Upon hearing about the True Dragon Body Refining Technique, which could rival the Ancestral Dragon Ancestor, Ao Cai did not act impulsively. Instead, she pressed for details, "Then... what about the second one?"

Pangu smiled calmly, "Second, the Carp Transforms into a Dragon Technique."

Just by their names, the two seem worlds apart.

One is a real dragon, the other a carp; no matter how you look at it, the first one has a higher level of prestige...

Ao Cai was about to blurt out that she should choose the first option, but then she remembered what Monkey King had said and decided to remain calm and unhurried.

So I patiently prepared to listen to the teacher's explanation!

"The Carp Transforms into a Dragon Technique was created by me by combining my understanding of Emperor Qin Shi Huang Li Yu's 'Way of Passing on the Flame' with my own profound skills. It is subject to uncertainty."

"This method of practice is difficult, requiring great perseverance, profound understanding, and the ability to endure suffering that ordinary people cannot bear!"

Ao Cai asked timidly, "If one cultivates to the peak, can one rival the Ancestral Dragon Ancestor?"

Ao Cai had just said she hadn't thought about being on par with her ancestors, but now all she could think about was how to be on par with them!

Pangu smiled mysteriously, "As I said, it's full of uncertainties."

Therefore! There is no peak! The path to enlightenment is endless!

Ao Cai was so shocked that she couldn't speak. If there was no peak, then wouldn't that mean she could surpass her ancestor?

Pangu spoke again, "The transformation of a carp into a dragon, the first stage, awakens the dragon nature deep within one's bloodline."

"The second stage, shedding scales, uses one's own karma as fuel to burn away impurities and shed impure scales!"

"The third stage: reshaping the dragon bones; the fourth stage: condensing the dragon pearl!"

"The fifth level, Soul Refining, forging a dragon soul using one's own impure thoughts and karmic forces!"

"Until the ninth level, the bloodline is infinitely enhanced! Either reverting to ancestral form... or becoming a new ancestor..."

Obviously!

The Carp Transforms into a Dragon Technique, just as its name suggests!

Any aquatic creature can cultivate, awaken its dragon nature, burn away impurities, shed its scales, forge its dragon soul, condense a dragon pearl, and ultimately become the 'Ancestral Dragon'.

At the same time! This method is difficult! It requires great perseverance and enlightenment, and one must endure suffering that ordinary people cannot bear!

Pangu used the True Dragon Body Refining Technique in his left hand and the Carp Transformation Dragon Technique in his right!

The choice was given to the disciple!

Since Pangu became a teacher, he naturally had to fulfill his responsibilities as a teacher!

Both of these techniques are extremely powerful!

No matter what she chooses, her future achievements will be remarkable!

The only difference is the final height that can be reached!

The value of Pangu is no joke!

Ao Cai was also in a dilemma, knowing that she had some skills.

Without the same level of comprehension as the Monkey King, am I really suited for the Carp Transformation into a Dragon Technique?

"Teacher...Brother Monkey...Wukong's comprehension and intelligence far surpass mine, so why...didn't you teach him the magic first...?"

Pangu chuckled, "Because he knows that everything he does is a form of cultivation."

Transmitting the Dharma? Pangu already did that long ago.

Spiritual practice begins with cultivating the mind! Once the mind is cultivated, the Dharma will naturally follow!

Ao Cai vaguely sensed that the teacher valued Monkey King more than just a little. Sometimes she wondered if she had gotten to this point because of Monkey King…

Monkey King's future... is sure to be extraordinary!

therefore!

Ao Cai also wants to pursue the endless path of cultivation, and she can't fall behind Monkey King in the future...

then!

Ao Cai chose the Carp Transformation into a Dragon Technique without hesitation!
