Chapter 4866: The Dao Ancestor Presents Treasures

In Green Lotus Immortal City, the streets were bustling with people and clamorous with carriages and horses.

“Have you heard! The Wang family is holding the Green Lotus Dharma Assembly, and Grand Expanse Dao Ancestor will appear to give a sermon.”

“I heard about it long ago, but I heard Senior Wang is no longer a Dao Ancestor, but a Dao Venerable, also known as the Great Dao Stage, where one is supreme in the Dao.”

“Speaking of which, Senior Wang hasn’t appeared for over a billion years. Everyone said he had suffered severe injuries and died, but it turns out it was just a rumor.”

“He’s unrivaled in the Immortal World now; it doesn’t matter whether Senior Wang appears or not. If it were me, after becoming unrivaled throughout the Immortal World, I wouldn’t appear either.”

Monks in the streets and alleys were all discussing the news that Wang Changsheng was preparing to make a public appearance, which had spread throughout the entire Immortal World. Major powers with Dao Ancestors received invitations from the Wang family, inviting the Dao Ancestors to participate in the Green Lotus Dharma Assembly.

Before this, the Wang family had held many Green Lotus Dharma Assemblies, all attended by Dao Ancestors. This time was different: Grand Expanse Dao Venerable would appear in person. Calculating the time, Grand Expanse Dao Venerable’s last public appearance was over a billion years ago, making him a legend in the Immortal World.

The legend of the Green Lotus Immortal Couple had always circulated in the Immortal World. Many Dao Ancestors had seen portraits of the Green Lotus Immortal Couple, but had never seen them in person.

This time, with the Wang family holding the Green Lotus Dharma Assembly, many Dao Ancestors rushed to Green Lotus Immortal City, intending to catch a glimpse of Wang Changsheng’s true appearance. This also led to Green Lotus Immortal City becoming even more prosperous, with major merchants taking the opportunity to promote and sell goods, bringing out many good items to attract customers.

In Green Lotus Garden, Wang Lingyue and a graceful woman in a golden skirt were sitting in a green stone pavilion, enjoying tea and chatting idly.

“What! Madam Yu, you want to see our old ancestor?” Wang Lingyue said with a frown.

Today was different from the past; it was not easy to meet Wang Changsheng, let alone for outsiders, even for the Wang family’s own Dao Ancestors.

“Immortal Maiden Wang, I have a precious treasure to offer Senior Wang,” the woman in the golden skirt said.

“A precious treasure? Show it to me. What good things hasn’t our old ancestor seen?” Wang Lingyue said.

The woman in the golden skirt took out an exquisite golden jade box and pushed it in front of Wang Lingyue.

Wang Lingyue opened the lid of the box and saw a golden ball of light. She exclaimed in surprise, “This is the origin of the Great Dao of Gold!”

The Wang family members were spread across various immortal domains in the Immortal World, but even for them, it was not easy to collect a single type of Great Dao origin.

“I have something even more precious. Does this qualify me to meet your old ancestor?” the woman in the golden skirt asked.

“I will report it immediately. Let’s see what our old ancestor decides. This is not something I can decide,” Wang Lingyue said.

Wang Lingyue took out a golden shimmering Dharma plate, injected a magic incantation, and made a series of gestures.

After a while, she spoke: “Madam Yu, please follow me! Our old ancestor wants to see you.”

The woman in the golden skirt showed joy, put away the golden jade box, and followed Wang Lingyue to the Green Lotus Hall, where Wang Changsheng was seated in the main chair.

“Your junior, Yu Yu, greets Senior Wang.” The woman in the golden skirt bowed respectfully.

“I heard you have good things to offer me? What good things are they?” Wang Changsheng asked.

Yu Yu took out a golden storage bracelet, handed it to Wang Lingyue, who then gave it to Wang Changsheng.

Wang Changsheng’s divine sense swept over it, revealing over a dozen types of Great Dao origins, more than two hundred Dao materials, more than two hundred Dao stones, and one Enlightenment Stone.

“Little friend Yu, where did you get them?” Wang Changsheng asked.

“From the Chaos Sea! To obtain this storage bracelet, all my other companions died,” Yu Yu said.

“So that means you lived in the Chaos Era?” Wang Changsheng asked.

After the last Great Dao War, the Wang family sealed off the entrance and dispatched many experts to guard it. If a Dao Ancestor wanted to force their way into the Chaos Sea, it would be impossible not to alarm the Wang family members. Yet, since the Wang family began guarding the Chaos Sea entrance, they hadn't discovered anyone forcing their way in!

“Exactly. This junior’s strength is low, and knowing I was no match for the Chaos Beasts, I did not participate in the Great Dao War. Fortunately, Senior Wang was there; otherwise, the Immortal World would have been completely dominated by Chaos Beasts.” As Yu Yu finished speaking, her face was filled with admiration.

The Immortal World had experienced multiple Great Dao Wars, but she had not participated in any of them, remaining uninvolved. She was a rogue cultivator, so it was all the same to her who ruled the Immortal World. In the Immortal World, there were Taiyi Golden Immortals and Grand Luo Golden Immortals who had lived since the Chaos Era, and naturally, also Dao Ancestors.

“What do you want?” Wang Changsheng asked.

“This junior wishes for resources to break through to the Great Dao Stage. I hope Senior can grant my wish.” Yu Yu looked at Wang Changsheng with eager expectation.

Dao Ancestor was not the highest realm, and who wouldn't want to go further on the immortal path?

Wang Changsheng flipped his right hand, and a blue-glowing Dharma plate appeared. He said, “This is the Way-Seeking Plate, a Heavenly Dao divine artifact. It’s mainly for lie detection. I will ask you some questions, and you must answer truthfully.”

“Yes, Senior Wang.” Yu Yu agreed.

“If you break through to Dao Venerable, where do you plan to go?” Wang Changsheng asked.

“Naturally, I will go to the Chaos World. Senior, rest assured, if this junior can break through to the Great Dao Stage, I will absolutely not oppose your Wang family.” Yu Yu swore an oath facing him, invoking her inner demons.

Wang Changsheng raised his right hand, and a blue storage bracelet flew out, landing in front of Yu Yu.

“Inside is a Great Dao Seed, as well as insights on breaking through to Dao Venerable and a recording crystal. Whether you can break through to Dao Venerable depends on you,” Wang Changsheng said.

“Thank you, Senior Wang, thank you, Senior Wang, thank you, Senior Wang.” Yu Yu repeatedly expressed her thanks and excitedly put away the blue storage bracelet.

Wang Changsheng waved his hand, motioning Wang Lingyue to escort Yu Yu out.

“An Enlightenment Stone! It seems there are indeed many good things in the Sea of Guixu.” Wang Changsheng murmured to himself.

Over the years, countless powerful cultivators had been buried in the Sea of Guixu. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it an unknown treasure trove. This time, he brought back many immortal cultivation resources, planning to cultivate several more Dao Venerables and have them guard the Immortal World.

Wang Changsheng intended to manage the Immortal World as his private domain, serving as both a secret base and a talent pool. If he encountered strong enemies in the Chaos World, he could always retreat to the Immortal World.

Half a month later, the Green Lotus Dharma Assembly was held in Green Lotus Immortal City. Dozens of Dao Ancestors and tens of thousands of Grand Luo Golden Immortals gathered on the bluestone plaza at the peak of Immortal Gathering Peak.

“Please welcome our old ancestor.” Wang Lingyue’s voice was not loud, but it spread throughout Immortal Gathering Peak.

Wang Changsheng descended from the sky, landing on the main platform.

Feeling the powerful aura emanating from Wang Changsheng, the cultivators bowed in salute, saying, “Greetings, old ancestor (Senior Wang).”

Wang Changsheng nodded and said, “I haven't appeared for many years. This time, I intend to give a sermon. How much you gain depends on each of you.”

“Thank you, old ancestor (Senior Wang),” the cultivators said in unison.

Wang Changsheng sat down and began to speak of his cultivation insights. He only discussed up to the Dao Ancestor realm, merely briefly mentioning the Dao Venerable realm without elaborating further.

The cultivation insights of the Dao Venerable realm were naturally meant for his own family members, not for outsiders; there was a distinction between close and distant relations. However, those who had good relations or frequent interactions with the Wang family could be told some.

Even the cultivation insights of the Dao Ancestor realm alone were enough to greatly benefit many Dao Ancestors.

Wang Changsheng lectured for three days and three nights. Three days later, the Green Lotus Dharma Assembly moved to its next segment, presided over by Wang Hui, while Wang Changsheng returned to Green Lotus Immortal Island to rest.
