Not to mention that Golden Core clearly wasn’t the end of this path.
No wonder Ning Changge often spoke of pursuing immortality through the Dao!
Everyone felt an intense yearning—especially Huang Shang, whose breathing quickened. As the path unfolded before him, he felt as though he could die content after hearing it today.
Ning Changge continued:
“The Immortal Dao cultivates mana while also cultivating the Great Dao.”
“What is the Great Dao?”
His voice grew more profound as Words Become Reality took effect. Visions began to manifest around him; rich Daoist resonance emanated from his being. The audience gazed at him with reverence as if beholding a Daoist ancestor.
“Wind, rain, thunder, and lightning are Dao!”
Suddenly, strong winds swept through their hearts and souls, transforming into torrential rain before lightning descended upon them all.
The wind, rain, and lightning caused no harm—instead offering an opportunity for profound understanding.
Immersed in these phenomena, Wudang disciples entered states of enlightenment. Such was the power of Words Become Reality, far surpassing mere demonstrations of spiritual energy—it silently guided others toward enlightenment.
Ning Changge intended to plant seeds of understanding within Wudang disciples today—paving the way for Wudang’s future transformation into an immortal sect.
“The Five Elements are Dao!”
Gold, wood, water, fire, and earth unfolded like a painting—five-colored light enveloped them as divine beasts roared in harmony. Even Land Immortals were entranced, one by one entering states of realization.
“Yin and Yang; life and death are Dao!”
Black-and-white energies intertwined—transforming into grinding stones, Taiji diagrams, and other wondrous forms.
“Blades and swords are Dao!”
“Alchemy and forging are Dao!”
“Mountains and rivers are Dao!”
“The sun, moon, and stars are Dao!”
One vision after another unfolded across heaven and earth as Ning Changge demonstrated what it meant to walk the Immortal Dao.
“In summary: all things under heaven are Dao!”
His words struck deep into their souls like thunderclaps—awakening them profoundly.
Reverence filled their eyes as they gazed at him—some even shed tears born from sheer awe and gratitude for witnessing such truths firsthand!
The room buzzed with rising energy as disciples gained new insights—not only advancing their martial cultivation but also planting seeds for future transitions into immortal cultivation!
Land Immortals too gained immensely—they realized how shallow their understanding of their own paths had been—and how much room there was for improvement!
But most importantly—they glimpsed a new peak through Ning Changge’s teachings—a summit they now yearned desperately to reach!
This realization deepened their reverence for Ning Changge—who stood as both pioneer and master of this transcendent path!
For Ning Changge himself—the process clarified his own understanding further—his inner Five Elements Spirit Tree swayed gently as if purified anew—bringing him closer than ever before to perfecting his Golden Core method!
At the moment Ning Changge created the Nine Apertures Golden Core Method, a wondrous light descended upon him, as if congratulating him. The Daoist aura around him grew even more intense, far surpassing its initial state.
Everyone immediately understood.
Ning Changge had achieved another profound insight, and it was undoubtedly extraordinary!
The third-generation disciples looked on with admiration, while the Land Immortals were filled with awe. Despite participating in the same discussion, Ning Changge had gained unique insights that propelled his strength forward. Though they too had benefited, their progress paled in comparison to his.

“No wonder the Little Immortal has achieved so much at such a young age, while I have wandered aimlessly for centuries without finding the path,” sighed Huang Shang.
He fully grasped the gap between himself and Ning Changge.
He was convinced, with no desire to compete with Ning Changge.
His visit to Wudang was solely for the pursuit of the Dao, nothing more.
Hearing Ning Changge mention that the time was not yet right filled him with excitement that no one else could understand. With this in mind, he humbly requested:
“I humbly ask to build a humble abode on Tianzhu Peak, seeking permission from Master Zhang and the Little Immortal.”
His sincerity was evident.
Ning Changge smiled and left the decision to Zhang Sanfeng.
Zhang Sanfeng chuckled and nodded. He welcomed Huang Shang with open arms.
Huang Shang was no ordinary figure. Among those present, aside from Ning Changge, he was the most powerful—an expert rivaling the Sword Demon. His willingness to stay at Wudang was a boon.
Though Zhang Sanfeng knew Huang Shang’s stay was motivated by the hope of learning from Ning Changge’s teachings one day, this was not a problem. On the contrary…
Huang Shang’s presence would enhance Wudang’s foundation. Grateful for Wudang’s kindness, he would likely mentor its disciples. Additionally, Zhang Sanfeng would gain another partner for discussions on the Dao.
For Wudang, it was a win-win situation.
“Huang Shang, if you find Wudang agreeable, why not join me in building a cottage in the back mountain? We can be neighbors,” Zhang Sanfeng laughed heartily.
Huang Shang’s eyes lit up with joy.
“That would be wonderful!”
Seeing Huang Shang’s decision, the other Land Immortals’ eyes brightened. They too expressed their desire to stay at Wudang!
Who wouldn’t be tempted by the allure of the Immortal Dao?
The promise of true immortality was evident from Ning Changge’s teachings—far surpassing martial arts. If Ning Changge began imparting his knowledge, those at Wudang would have a head start.
Surpassing Ning Changge as the founder of this path was impossible, but perhaps they could vie for second place?
Zhang Sanfeng saw the Daoist Realms’ requests and agreed with a smile.
Having a group of Land Immortals temporarily reside at Wudang was a great boon. If some Daoist wanderers chose to stay permanently, even better.
As for when Ning Changge would teach and to whom, Zhang Sanfeng wouldn’t press him.
