Zhao Yu was also giving his all.
Half of his entire fortune was going to be spent on someone who was unwilling, and he felt a pang of heartache.
As soon as the words left his mouth, Zhao Yu felt a faint regret.
But how could the system give him a chance to regret it? A luminous orb shot out, within which countless lines seemed to be outlined and interwoven, faintly resembling the prototype of a World!
This was a glimpse of the highest profound meaning of the Qiankun Fulu Lianqi Method!
The luminous orb flashed, and without anyone noticing, it entered Zhao Yu's glabella, instantly transforming into infinite talismans that displayed their mysteries one by one in his mind. There were cloud dragons and wind tigers, Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire, thunder and lightning, and mountains and rivers; the mysteries of Heaven and Earth were all contained within... Finally, they condensed into an incomparably profound mother talisman, quietly suspended in Zhao Yu's Sea of Consciousness.
When the mother talisman manifested, Zhao Yu seemed to comprehend infinite profound meanings of the Great Dao. Various experiences and insights surged like a tide in a vast ocean, and sparks of wisdom and inspiration appeared one by one at that moment.
Once the mother talisman condensed and absorbed the profound meanings, this mysterious feeling suddenly faded, leaving Zhao Yu feeling lost.
He sighed slightly, glanced at Tony, who was already impatiently puzzled, and said to the system in his mind, "I already know a little about this Qiankun Fulu Lianqi Method, but if I want to teach it to others, I can't just verbally explain it. Does the system have a solution?"
The profundity of the Great Dao can be understood through intuition but not easily expressed in words.
Especially since Zhao Yu had only just begun to grasp its mysteries and was not yet proficient.
If he fully understood and completed his Cultivation, he could naturally explain it verbally, but he didn't have that ability now.
As for directly imparting this Great Dao inheritance light group to Tony, that was also impossible.
How could the Great Dao method be easily passed on?
Even if one was completely devoted, it would still need to be taught step by step.
Zhao Yu already had a framework in mind for the planning of the sect.
He hadn't read so many immortal hero and fantasy novels for nothing.
The structures of many sects within them could be referenced.
For example, the teaching of this method should have corresponding rules.
What level of disciple gets taught what level of method, this is a fixed rule!
"Deduct ten points of luck.
The host can exchange for the method of A sudden enlightenment , divide the method into levels, and impart it through Initiation ."
Zhao Yu choked for a moment, another deduction?!
But facing the system, he was powerless and could only endure it. He immediately exchanged for the A sudden enlightenment method and closed his eyes slightly, carefully comprehending it.
This A sudden enlightenment method was quite simple; if converted into text, it would only be a hundred characters or so. Coupled with the system's display of its profound meaning during the inheritance, Zhao Yu understood it thoroughly in just a few minutes.
At this point, he closed the system light screen and turned his gaze to Tony.
Tony had been standing face to face with Zhao Yu for a while, and to be honest, he felt very uncomfortable.
But this person had always been someone who never gave up, even when controlled.
It sounded a bit childish; although he was impatient, he still stared at Zhao Yu with wide eyes, like a cross-eyed person, showing his unwilling attitude.
Zhao Yu found it amusing—these Super Heroes, to put it bluntly, they were still mortals.
In the Marvel Universe, those Super Heroes powerful enough to blast a Planet with a single blow, their power was strong enough, but their state of mind and Dao Cultivation had no essential difference from mortals.
Therefore, they would always be human, never immortals, nor gods.
However, with Zhao Yu's arrival, whether they would remain human or become immortals in the future would depend on their fortune.
"Today, as my sect is newly established, due to the scarcity of disciples and the small scale of the sect, it will temporarily be called a 'Sect.'
When the sect grows stronger in the future, it will be called a 'Teaching.'
You are the first disciple to establish my sect.
Today, I, your master, will impart to you the Great Dao method.
May you diligently Cultivate and practice, and witness the Great Dao soon!"
After Zhao Yu finished speaking, he slowly sat down cross-legged: "Kneel."
"Kneel?!"
Tony's eyes widened, disbelievingly saying, "You want me to kneel?!"
"Hmm."
Zhao Yu was expressionless: "You are not kneeling to me, but to the Great Dao.
How can the Great Dao be lightly passed on? You must maintain reverence!"
A glint flashed in his eyes: "Do you want to experience the taste of the Jin Gu Curse again?"
Tony was almost on the verge of tears.
He was thirty years old, and since childhood, he had never knelt, not even to his father, Howard. Now he had to kneel before a devil?!
Where was his dignity?!
Although this devil said he was kneeling to some Great Dao, did he, Tony, need to kneel to some ghostly Great Dao?
But remembering yesterday's pain, Tony trembled with anger, his teeth grinding audibly, but in the end, he still knelt down.
"Very good."
Zhao Yu secretly nodded in his heart.
Someone as arrogant and self-centered as Tony, who was completely self-absorbed, had to be thoroughly subdued.
Regardless of whether he was willing at this moment.
Once he witnessed the profound mysteries of the Great Dao, he would naturally understand its meaning.
Seeing Tony kneel with immense difficulty before him, Zhao Yu's expression became serious, and he slowly extended his finger, gently pointing it towards Tony's glabella.
Tony instinctively wanted to move away, but he was compelled by Zhao Yu's gaze and ultimately dared not, enduring the transmission of achievement with that finger.
Instantly, Tony felt some mysterious information surge into his mind.
That information was very strange; he had never heard of it before, but he could understand some superficial aspects!
But he intensely disliked it!
"What did you do?!"
Tony shouted, "What did you put in my head?!"
Zhao Yu withdrew his finger, ignoring Tony's protest, and said indifferently, "Your master has imparted to you the first volume of the Qiankun Fulu Lianqi Method, the Forging Body Foundation Establishment Chapter, and the first layer of the second volume, the Basic Qi Refining Method.
"The Qiankun Fulu Lianqi Method is an advanced method of the Talisman Dao.
This method has four volumes: the Forging Body Foundation Establishment Chapter, the Refining Essence into Qi Chapter, the Refining Qi into Spirit Chapter, with an attached volume of Basic Talismans.
The three main volumes each have nine layers, totaling twenty-seven layers.
Cultivating to perfection will surely lead to the ninth stage of Spirit Transformation, allowing one to glimpse Returning to Void."
At this point, he paused and said, "To give you a simple analogy using your mortal measurements—a full-power strike from a Returning to Void Earth Immortal can directly blast the Earth.
At the peak of Returning to Void, a perfected Earth Immortal who has glimpsed the Heavenly Immortal Great Dao can use their primordial spirit to reflect the void, and the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy and Little Chiliad laws are all at their disposal.
If they exert their full power, they can cause the Destruction of the Solar System.
Even at just the ninth stage of Spirit Transformation, one can easily destroy Earth civilization, traverse the void without any external assistance, and enjoy a lifespan of three thousand years."
"Of course, this path of Cultivation cannot be simply described by how many Planets are shattered or how many star systems are destroyed.
The profound mysteries of the Great Dao encompass everything; life and death, reincarnation, are all within one's grasp.
The profundity within is beyond words, but you must experience it yourself."
At this point, Zhao Yu flipped his hand and took out two thread-bound books.
He handed them to Tony: "One volume each of the Taiping Jing and Lingbao Wuliang Duren Shangpin Miaojing, both are basic knowledge sections related to the Talisman Dao.
Take them back and study them diligently; do not be negligent."
Tony looked at these antique-like thread-bound books, secretly gritted his teeth, and at least took them.
Zhao Yu nodded: "Your master does not force you to Cultivate here, nor does he force you to achieve great things in the Talisman Dao in the future.
Cultivation is a process of witnessing the Great Dao, a process of comprehending knowledge; it belongs to you.
Do not think that this is some useless, mystical nonsense.
The so-called Three Thousand Great Daos, the prevalent path of technology on Earth today, if pursued to its end, might also lead to witnessing the Great Dao.
But I have never seen such a technological civilization; on the contrary, I know examples of individuals who have attained the Great Dao.
One is visible, one is invisible; how you choose is up to you.
The master leads the way, but Cultivation is a personal journey, each with their own karma..."
Zhao Yu's words were not a bluff.
He said he knew examples of individuals who had attained the Great Dao—where did those advanced methods in the system's exchange area come from?
Zhao Yu, acting like a master, waved his hand: "You may leave.
If you have any questions, you can come here at any time, and your master will teach you everything he knows.
If you don't come, your master will not force you."
Tony didn't care about Zhao Yu's grand pronouncements.
Although he was already slightly influenced in his heart, he still firmly believed that Zhao Yu was a devil.
Hearing Zhao Yu tell him to leave, he immediately jumped up and turned to walk away.
Zhao Yu's voice finally came from behind: "You cannot understand your master yet, but your master believes that one day, you will understand.
At that time, your master will naturally remove the Jin Gu Curse for you... In addition, your low-level sentience—the artificial intelligence—has been trapped by your master with a talisman; it will be released in seven days.
If you are interested, study it carefully..."
As Zhao Yu was rambling, he suddenly wondered if this was the time to sing 'Only You'?
Tony's body stiffened, and he immediately sped up, striding almost at a trot as he left the small Villa.
In the afternoon, people from the home furnishing company came here and arranged the Villa according to his ideas.
Zhao Yu did not let them redecorate; he only asked for some furniture to be properly placed and then dismissed these Chiefs.
At this point, Zhao Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"System, where are my Fate-Suppressing Spiritual Treasure and Blessed Land?"
"Are you sure you want to receive them?"
"Confirmed."
As soon as the words fell, a large seal with a jade-colored body and a cluster of light shrouded in radiant mist appeared in his left and right palms, respectively.
At the same time, information related to the great seal and the light cluster also became known to Zhao Yu.
This great seal was the Taiyi Treasure Seal, the Fate-Suppressing Spiritual Treasure of Zhao Yu's newly established sect, the Taiyi Sect.
This treasure was currently only at the Artifact level, and its power was still shallow, but this treasure was a growing treasure, and it was unknown what materials it was made of.
It was only connected to the sect's luck; the more prosperous the sect's luck, the stronger the treasure's power.
And the stronger the treasure's power, the greater its function of suppressing luck! They complemented each other, always so.
The primary function of the Taiyi Treasure Seal was to suppress luck.
In addition, it also had the ability to attack and defend.
When attacking, it could suppress space-time, manipulate the Five Elements, and summon thunder and Fire with ease.
Of course, its current rank was too low to manifest its true power.
When defending, it could serve as the core of the sect-protecting formation, enhancing the formation's power.
The knob of the Taiyi Treasure Seal was two Yin-Yang Dragon Fish facing each other head to tail, one half Black, one half White, conforming to the number of Yin and Yang.
The four sides of the seal body had the images of the Four Sacred Beasts, conforming to the numbers of Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire.
The bottom of the seal was engraved with the divine pattern of the 'Taiyi' Great Dao, surrounded by thunder patterns, possessing various divine mysteries.
Although this treasure seal was not even a magic treasure yet, only an artifact, Zhao Yu was already very satisfied; he didn't demand more.
Besides, even if he were given a supreme treasure, he wouldn't be able to use it, would he?
On the contrary, the Taiyi Treasure Seal was just right for him.
And that cluster of light, radiating with rosy glow, was a Ninth-Grade Blessed Land.
Its internal space was ten li in circumference and three li high, with one spiritual pulse that constantly emitted Heaven and Earth spiritual energy for Cultivation.
Blessed Lands were divided into ten grades, with Ninth Grade being the lowest and Super Grade the highest.
Even a Ninth-Grade Blessed Land had a hundred times more Heaven and Earth spiritual energy than the outside World.
It was indeed a good place for immortal Cultivation and achieving the Dao!
As for the method of placing this Blessed Land, Zhao Yu already knew it.
Like magic treasures and artifacts, one first needed to acknowledge it as their master, then choose a location, and then it could be placed.
Immediately, Zhao Yu bit his finger, dripped a drop of heart blood, completed the initial acknowledgment of ownership, and formed a subtle potential connection with the Blessed Land—whether it was a Blessed Land or a magic treasure, complete refinement required a long process.
Of course, the summoning saint token was not included in this category; that was a one-time, no, three-time use item.
