Eon God's expression remained the same throughout, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking. Even if someone described it better, he would only nod slightly.
For example, when the Nine Tribulations King said that his Dao was that he would die ten thousand deaths without regret, that he would walk his own path, and that he would do whatever he wanted for the people of the world, Eon God would nod slightly.
Finally, all the Autarchs finished their narrations.
They looked at the expressionless Eon God and couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Some were annoyed that their performance just now had been barely satisfactory, when they clearly could have done better. Others were confident that they would definitely come out on top.
"Child, it's your turn."
After everyone had finished speaking, Eon God looked at Jian Wushuang and said with a smile.
"Yes."
Jian Wushuang took a deep breath, suppressing the throbbing in his heart and calming himself as he walked out from the crowd.
He knew that if it was purely in terms of understanding of the Dao, he was absolutely no match for these fifteen Autarchs.
To him, every single one of them was an expert who had cultivated for no less than a hundred chaos cycles, and there were even some old monsters who had cultivated for over a thousand chaos cycles.
No matter how arrogant Jian Wushuang was, he didn't believe that his foundation was deeper than these old monsters who had cultivated for countless years.
However, this didn't mean that Jian Wushuang was afraid and would give up without a fight.
In his heart, he also had his own understanding of the Dao.
"Child, are you ready?"
Eon God asked with a smile.
"I'm ready." Jian Wushuang nodded seriously.
"Then come. Tell me about your understanding of the Dao."
Lingxiao Palace fell into silence after these words were spoken.
Jian Wushuang wasn't in a hurry to answer. Instead, he raised his head, his gaze piercing through the light and looking into the distance, a hint of reminiscence surging in his eyes.
He began to recall everything he had seen and heard on his way here.
When the other Autarchs saw this, they immediately sneered in their hearts.
"What an act. This Jian Wushuang has only cultivated for seven hundred thousand years. He's just a brat who's still wet behind the ears. What could he possibly know about the Dao?"
"It's true that Jian Wushuang is extremely talented, but his comprehension of the Dao is not determined by talent."
"That's right. Let's wait and see how this Jian Wushuang will become a laughing stock."
These Supreme Martial Artists shook their heads, feeling a sense of superiority in their hearts.
At this moment, Jian Wushuang finally spoke.
His voice was calm, not high-spirited, and not deliberately low. It was as if he was calmly narrating a matter.
"The Dao that I understand …"
"It's not the primordial universe, nor is it the firmament of heaven and earth. It's very ordinary and not noble. It's like the wind flowing in the air, or the sand in the gaps between your fingers. It seems to be impossible to grasp, but it exists beside everyone."
"Dao is a very fair word. It doesn't matter if you're a mighty person who can destroy heaven and earth with a raise of your hand, or a mortal youth who carries a sword with him. They all have their own Dao."
"I, Jian Wushuang, rose from the ashes of the mortal world. I've walked thousands of mountains and rivers, and seen the waves of the mortal world. The Dao that I think of is the smoke rising from the kitchen chimneys in the countryside. It's the rain that falls from the sky to nourish the weeds. It's the weeds that crawl out from the cracks of the rocks and are chewed and swallowed by the old cows. It's the old cows that are cut up and eaten."
"It's the cycle of the heavens, and it's also the breaking of fate. It's the unseen world, and it's also the impermanence of the world."
"It's the four seasons, it's birth, old age, sickness, and death. It's the lowering of the Bodhisattva's brows, and it's the glare of the Vajra …"
"Everyone's Dao is different, but everyone's Dao leads to the same destination. They can turn the Dao into the shore, and the process of pursuing the Dao is to break through the wind and waves and cross the sea of bitterness!"
"The boundless world is full of vicissitudes. A person has only one life, and a plant has only one autumn. Even if you're in the corner of a well, as long as your heart is focused on the starlight, and you have a fearless heart, you can finally achieve the Dao …"
Jian Wushuang spoke slowly. In his words, Dao seemed to be a very ordinary thing. It wasn't as grand and great as other people said, and it wasn't as chaotic as the universe, heaven, and earth.
After he finished speaking, the whole place gradually fell into a short silence.
This time, there was no mockery or ridicule. Everyone was frowning as they carefully considered Jian Wushuang's words.
Since they were able to become Supremes, naturally, none of them were simple characters. Jian Wushuang's words were like a key that opened a new door for them.
Each of them was high and mighty, and each of them was an overlord. No matter where they went, there would be voices of flattery and agreement …
Their eyes had always been looking up, and they wouldn't be like Jian Wushuang, who lowered his head to observe the world.
So.
They suddenly realized that they might have overlooked the ordinary things in the ordinary!
At this moment, an ear-piercing voice suddenly rang out.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Jian Wushuang, what nonsense are you talking about? In my opinion, Dao is very simple. The only thing that can make me stronger is Dao! "
Tian Luozi snorted with a mocking expression.
Jian Wushuang didn't say anything, but the other Supremes who didn't have any enmity with Jian Wushuang turned their heads and glared at him fiercely.
Just a moment ago, Jian Wushuang's words had given them some inspiration. They were deep in thought, but they were suddenly interrupted by Tian Luozi's words!
"A mere ant dares to talk about the Dao?"
"This person is called Tian Luozi, right? With such a temperament, how can he achieve anything? "
"A person who hasn't even touched the origin of Dao dares to say that others are talking nonsense?"
For a moment, these people who didn't have any enmity with Jian Wushuang all mocked him.
Suddenly, Tian Luozi's face turned green and white with shock and fear.
On the other hand, Eon God narrowed his eyes and waved his hand. A torrential force surged out, and with a swipe, Tian Luozi directly disappeared and evaporated into thin air.
After doing all this, Eon God smiled again and asked the disciple beside him to give Jian Wushuang a bamboo token.
"Everyone, do you see the ten futons under this old man's seat? These ten futons are the ten seats where you can listen to Dao. The bamboo token that this old man asked the disciple to give you just now shows the order of the ten futons. Whichever number you get, you will sit on that futon. As for those whose bamboo token doesn't show a number, it means that you have been eliminated and can leave Lingxiao Palace later. "
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's pupils shrank.
Since Eon God said that the futons would be decided according to the number on the bamboo token, these futons were probably far from being as simple as they appeared on the surface.
"I've heard people say that the closer the futon is to the former, the deeper one's comprehension will be when listening to Dao!"
A Supremes said with a burning gaze.
"Is that so?"
For a moment, everyone raised their eyebrows and lowered their heads to look at the bamboo token in their hands.
Jian Wushuang also flipped over the bamboo token and lowered his head to look at it.
He saw a number that was slowly twisting and condensing like a small snake!
Suddenly, Jian Wushuang's whole body shook!
