More and more experts rushed over from various ridges, and Heaven Mountain City became more and more lively. Especially Heaven Mountain, it felt like it was overcrowded.
The Enlightenment Forest had a great reputation, so it naturally attracted more people to comprehend it.
Therefore, this place was also crowded with people, and it was a boiling cauldron.
Qin Xiao became famous because he forced the Black White Double Ghosts to retreat, and it felt like he had become a legend.
There were also many people who coveted Qin Xiao's Buddhist weapon, but no one dared to provoke Qin Xiao. After all, the Black White Double Ghosts had always avoided him.
A First Step Heavenly Venerable Immortal could do this. In the entire Southern Wilderness, there was probably no other one who could do this.
There were even many people who compared Qin Xiao to the Sky-Pride. The Sky-Pride had a great reputation and was well known in the entire Southern Wilderness. It could be considered as a symbol of the Fu Da Immortal Palace.
Now, there were many people who felt that Qin Xiao's talent and potential had surpassed the Sky-Pride. If this trend continued, he might really be able to surpass the Sky-Pride.
However, Qin Xiao turned a deaf ear to these external voices. He was fully immersed in comprehending the stone tablet.
He was comprehending the word "Lin" left on the stone tablet by the Heaven Mountain City Lord. Lin meant to be in the heart, and the heart must be as calm as still water and as stable as Mount Tai. Combined with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the three tastes of three lifetimes.
These things were very difficult to comprehend, but Qin Xiao was never afraid of such challenges. The more difficult it was, the more challenging it was.
To comprehend the profound meaning of the word "Lin" was naturally harder than ascending to heaven. One had to know that in the entire Southern Wilderness, there was only one person who had managed to comprehend it.
Among the countless peerless geniuses, there was only one. This showed how terrifying the difficulty was.
The word "Lin" was the Nine Words Mantra of the Immortal Dao. It was the ultimate profound meaning, the core of the Immortal Dao.
Cultivation was about comprehending the Dao.
For example, immortal skills, secret skills, and heaven and earth contained the laws of the Dao. However, these were not too profound.
The Nine Words Mantra was the foundation of the Dao of Righteousness. It was naturally profound.
The more profound a Dao was, the harder it was to comprehend it.
"The character 'Lin', descends upon the heavens and earth, stabilizes the heart of the heavens, calms the heavens, and draws the spirit of the heavens …"
"Lin isn't a simple word. It's a Dao that gives birth to all things. It's a profound Dao that gathers together the incomparably profound foundation of the Immortal Dao."
"This word is very simple, but the immortal dao contained within it is boundless. One is three, three gives birth to all things, and all things are boundless."
"Dao is the manifestation of the deepest level. It's like returning to one's natural state, bringing endless things back to their original state. The last word is honor. "
"Profound, truly too profound. As expected of the Immortal Dao Nine Syllables Mantra. You can only see a corner, but you can also see a huge mountain. "
"How can it be so easy to comprehend a huge mountain with a small corner?"
…
Comprehending the Dao had always been an extremely difficult thing. It would also bring endless pain to people.
The more one couldn't comprehend it, the more painful it would be. Once the pain started, it would be very difficult to erase it. If the pain continued to accompany him, then his cultivation would fall into a bad cycle. In the end, he could only give up his cultivation in pain.
Therefore, in cultivation, overcoming the pain was also a huge challenge.
Time continued to pass. After a while of excitement, the Enlightenment Forest gradually returned to its peaceful state.
After comprehending for a while, those who didn't gain anything left one after another. They didn't spend much time in the Enlightenment Forest.
In the blink of an eye, more than nine thousand years had passed. There were only a hundred years left until the Enlightenment Gathering. There was basically no one left in the Enlightenment Forest. Everyone had rushed to the peak of the Heaven Mountain. They were either participating in the Enlightenment Gathering or joining in the fun.
Bai Shan and the other two had long stopped comprehending. In the past few years, other than trying to get their hands on the three tokens, they had spent the rest of their time here waiting for Qin Xiao.
"This Qin Xiao is really making us anxious. The Enlightenment Gathering is about to begin. Why hasn't he stopped comprehending yet? If this drags on, we'll miss the Enlightenment Gathering. "Bai Shan said anxiously.
It was indeed a little urgent. There were only a hundred years left. Moreover, it would take some time for them to reach the peak of the Heaven Mountain.
Therefore, Bai Shan had the urge to wake Qin Xiao up. However, she was afraid that she would disturb Qin Xiao's cultivation.
"Let's wait a little longer. It won't take long to reach the peak of the Heaven Mountain. We can leave a year's time. Let's wait until the last moment and wake Qin Xiao up. No matter what, we can't miss the Enlightenment Gathering. "Tie Yulong said.
Fairy Zi Shang's spirited eyes flashed. "Forget it. Let's wait a little longer. If it doesn't work, we'll leave first. There's no need to wake Qin Xiao up."
"He always knows when to stop. If he's willing to stop comprehending, he'll definitely be able to do it."
"If he hasn't stopped comprehending, it means that he should be immersed in comprehending. Who knows, he might have a great harvest."
"He should be comprehending the 'Lin' word. If he really comprehended the 'Lin' word, the benefits would be much greater than participating in the Enlightenment Gathering."
That being said, how could the 'Lin' word be so easy to comprehend?
In the past ten thousand epochs, only one person in the entire Southern Wasteland managed to comprehend the 'Lin' word.
In fact, Bai Shan and the others felt that it was very difficult. The possibility was very low.
However, it wasn't impossible for Qin Xiao to comprehend it. After all, Qin Xiao had created many miracles along the way. He had given them too many surprises.
Therefore, they felt that no matter what Qin Xiao did, they could accept it.
"Then … why don't we leave first?" Bai Shan said.
She then added, "Since we won't disturb Qin Xiao, we'll let Qin Xiao decide for himself."
"If he doesn't gain much, he'll probably rush to participate in the Enlightenment Gathering. That Yu Qing has a token. He should be able to give it to Qin Xiao."
"If he really gains something, he probably won't participate in the Enlightenment Gathering."
"It doesn't matter if he doesn't participate in the Enlightenment Gathering. Participating in the Enlightenment Gathering doesn't necessarily give him the right to comprehend the Enlightenment Tree. After all, among a million people, I'm afraid only three to five people can obtain the right to comprehend the Enlightenment Tree. The ratio is too small."
"If there's a definite gain here, then let's focus on this place."
Fairy Purple Chest and Tie Yulong hesitated for a moment, then nodded. The situation was indeed as Bai Shan had said.
Indeed, it was meaningless for them to continue waiting here.
Therefore, after a brief discussion, the three of them left.
After the three of them left, the number of people in the Enlightenment Forest decreased. Only Qin Xiao remained in front of the Heaven Mountain City Lord's stone tablet. He was completely immersed in comprehending and cultivating.
The 'Lin' word descended upon heaven and earth, drawing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to comprehend the supreme Immortal Dao.
Qin Xiao could no longer feel the passage of time. Therefore, the ten thousand year period of the Dao Enlightenment Meeting was no longer important to him.
He didn't intend to stop comprehending. Instead, he took advantage of the current momentum to continue comprehending.
…
The peak of Heaven Mountain was bustling with noise and excitement. This was a rare occasion, a grand occasion for the entire Southern Wilderness.
On the enormous Enlightenment Plaza of Heaven Mountain, millions of participants had already arrived and taken their seats.
More than half of these participants were third-step Celestial Venerables. The rest were basically second-step Celestial Venerables. There were very few first-step Celestial Venerables.
In truth, the first-step Second Celestial Venerables were all here to join in the fun and broaden their horizons. There was no chance of them obtaining the right to meditate on the Enlightenment Tree.
After all, there had never been such a precedent in all the previous Enlightenment Gatherings.
Therefore, the Enlightenment Gathering was prepared for third-step Celestial Venerables.
If their cultivation level was too low, it would be difficult for them to gain anything from meditating on the Enlightenment Tree. Third-step Celestial Venerables were just right.
There was a high platform at the bottom of the Enlightenment Plaza. On a throne sat a man with a smile on his face. He gave off a very amiable and amiable feeling.
He wore plain clothes, and his face was slightly round. It was hard to see how sharp he was. Therefore, he gave off a very amiable feeling.
One could not see a trace of majesty or sharpness on his face. He gave people the feeling that he was a kind uncle from next door.
The aura on his body was also very faint. One could not even sense any aura at all.
This kind of feeling was similar to the feeling that a mortal being gave off.
It was as light as the wind, as if there was no sense of existence or majesty.
However, everyone knew that the person sitting on the throne was none other than the Heaven Mountain City Lord. He was one of the top experts in the entire Southern Wasteland. He stood at the peak, a supreme expert, and an incomparably mysterious existence.
Beside the Heaven Mountain City Lord stood a man. The sharpness on his body was released without any concealment. He was like a peerless treasure sword, shining with a sharpness that could illuminate everything.
His sharp edges made him look especially resolute and cold.
Just his face alone was like a piece of thousand-year-old ice. It was so cold that it made one's heart tremble.
His aura was incomparably powerful.
This person was the Heaven Mountain City Lord's disciple, his only personal disciple, Young Master Xing An. He was also the only person in 10,000 universe epochs who had comprehended the Lin word.
It was a pity that this peerless genius had been immersed in a hundred universe epochs and was still stuck at the fourth-step Heavenly Venerable Realm.
However, no one knew how strong he was. They only knew that he rarely made a move and almost never went out.
Although his sharpness was ostentatious, he did not reveal it.
Perhaps it was because the Heaven Mountain City had always been very low-key, so the Heaven Mountain City Lord definitely did not want his disciple to be too ostentatious.
Everyone's gaze landed on the Heaven Mountain City Lord. Countless people held incomparable admiration for the Heaven Mountain City Lord. At this moment, they finally saw his true appearance.
The Heaven Mountain City Lord stood up and swept his gentle gaze across the crowd. There was a thick smile on his face. It was an incomparably amiable smile.
The Heaven Mountain City Lord did not say anything, but it was better than saying anything. He only smiled at the crowd. Just an amiable gaze was enough to excite them and make their blood boil.
If one were to talk about not putting on airs, the Heaven Mountain City Lord would definitely be the first among all the ancient saints in the Southern Wasteland.
The Dao Enlightenment Meeting had officially begun. After it began, even those with tokens could not enter again. If they missed it, they had missed it. They could only wait for the next session. This had always been the rule.
A white-haired old man walked forward. Although he had the demeanor of a transcendent being, he was also very kind and amiable. There was a slight smile on his face that was like a gentle breeze, which invisibly shortened the distance between him and the others.
However, from his aura, one could tell that he was an extremely powerful fourth-step Heavenly Venerable.
Obviously, the Dao Enlightenment Meeting this time was hosted by this old man.
