The few Golden Immortals of this era were merely minions in that era.
Quasi-saint evildoers were everywhere in that era.
Although they are all old monsters who have lived for countless years, in fact, they can rely on their age to act tyrannically in an era without sufficient Taoism, and cultivate to the level of Quasi-Sage and Daluo Jinxian. They are definitely monsters among monsters.
If they were given enough resources and the right methods, they would definitely grow to a desperate and terrifying level.
Perhaps in that era, quasi-saints were as numerous as dogs.
There may even be several more saints.
Sha Chen thought that his talent was higher than that of Sun Wukong and Yang Jian, but it was still a little worse than those great monsters during the period of the war between wizards and liches.
so.
Shachen is very clear about his level and knows where he fits in.
He shook his head and said, "Saint, you are really too kind. My talent is actually average. It is only because of good opportunities that I have achieved what I have today."
It was through the rewards from the system and the constant tributes from his followers that he was able to improve quickly and grow to where he is today.
It was mainly the system's rewards, which included various Taoist methods and magical spells, as well as advice from saints, which could enable him to improve quickly.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to grow so fast.
but.
Shachen's talent is steadily increasing, and now it has been upgraded from an ordinary talent.
Otherwise, if he continued to grow with his previous talent, even with the current resources and support, it would probably take him tens of thousands of years, or even his entire life, to reach his current level.
Because one cannot reach the level of Golden Immortal or Quasi-Sage simply by having resources. It requires a certain level of talent and understanding, which is the threshold.
Shachen also raised his upper limit by constantly improving his talent and understanding.
Otherwise, there will be no breakthrough.
Tongtian Patriarch looked at Shachen and said calmly, "You don't have to be so modest. I told you that you have the talent. But sometimes, strength is not just about talent."
"I've said before that you have the potential to become a saint, but you lack the destiny and opportunity to do so. Don't blame me for being harsh, this is the truth. No saint has ever achieved this through cultivation."
The dust fell silent.
Tongtian Patriarch's words were not really harsh, and were even quite sincere.
If Tongtian Patriarch didn't really care about him, he wouldn't have told him these words.
Tongtian Patriarch continued, "Any saint has endured countless cruel trials. Outsiders would think that the six of us were lucky enough to sit in those six positions and become saints."
"But outsiders are wrong. We have taken on those six positions simply because we shouldered greater responsibilities. In reality, we have relied on ourselves to become saints. Our teachers haven't given us much help. At most, we can more easily ask them questions when we don't understand the truth."
Shachen's face was serious and solemn.
He knows.
Tongtian Patriarch was teaching him the truth.
Tongtian Patriarch continued, "Teacher has also given three sermons, teaching the Dharma and resolving doubts for the world. However, the Dharma we can obtain is not much more than what we received during those three sermons."
"If we are to become saints, we still have to rely on ourselves, and then purify the world and accumulate merits, create our own world, and accumulate countless merits."
Tongtian Patriarch said: "If we really have an advantage, then our path is clearer."
"Following the teacher, we know that accumulating merit can lead to sainthood, so we will delve deeper into this area and avoid taking detours like others. That's all."
Shachen nodded.
In the past, there were actually quite a few people who were qualified to sit in those six positions, because their strengths were all about the same.
Just like Kunpeng, Hongyun, Zhenyuanzi, the Nine-winged Mosquito Man, the Ancestor of the Styx, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and many powerful figures at that time.
Although there were some differences in their strength at that time, the gap was not big.
If a real life-and-death battle breaks out, it is hard to say who will win or lose.
but.
Tongtian Jiaozhu and others were qualified to sit on it at that time. In addition to their own talents and strength, as well as their opportunities and intentions, it was mainly due to fate.
It was destined that they would sit in that position.
Then they had the destiny to become saints, and later they received guidance from Hongjun, and then they had the qualifications and potential to become saints.
Tongtian Patriarch said: "You don't have that destiny, nor do you have that qualification. At least if you don't leave here, you don't have the qualification."
“To accumulate merit, one cannot do so in isolation.”
