Chapter 1155: Divine Tao is the prominent teaching
Sometimes, fate is just this fickle.
Once, when the heaven and earth revived, the Great Ming Empire ascended to the Divine Dynasty, capable of enfeoffing Divine Positions. Shenxiao True Monarch, Pei Xuanjing, shared many divine positions among various powers.
At that time, the strong within these powers actually did not value these divine positions; they simply saw them as rewards for their disciples and successors with insufficient strength or inadequate talent.
For those cultivators with extraordinary talents, they could rapidly increase their cultivation with their own gifts, especially by taking advantage of the opportunities after the revival of heaven and earth and the fortunes following the ascension of heaven and earth. Their strength would break through one realm after another, reaching levels they dared not even dream of before.
Indeed, their strength improved rapidly. For the realms that cultivators in the Sky Wasteland would need hundreds of years to reach, they could set foot with these opportunities in just over a hundred years.
But unexpectedly, the changes in heaven and earth were so swift that in a short period of time, the situation transformed beyond their comprehension.
