****Author Note****
Gotta get this out there before the chapter starts.
It seems a lot of people are confused as to why Shuhang is doing what is only supposed to be for 8th stage saints only.
Well... all I can say is 'Read Further Into the Original's Raw' without really spoiling the story for anybody. Specifically around chapter 1000~ish... if I remember correctly?
Anyways, you only really need to know that anyone who transcends their tribulation within the 'Tribulation World', they would usually need to do that whole Manifesting Presence Before the People thing.
Anyone that passed their tribulation inside a Tribulation World will get only an upgraded cultivation of ONLY ONE realm, no matter where they're at. There are no stage skipping.
With that said, Shuhang is still only at 7th Stage, Spirit Venerable after the Tribulation.
As for the reason why Shuhang's 6th Promotes 7th Tribulation is so damn powerful; it actually had something to do with the earlier chapter when he saw that 'Prophecy' with Yellow Mountain.
Uh... I think that's all I needed to get out? Dunno, I prolly miss something but I'll burn that bridge when I get to it.... In any case, enjoy the chapter. Or not. Up to you o.O

Oh wait! There's one more thing... fuck I forgot it again...!! e.e
got distracted by youtube. eh whatever
It's probably not that important if I forgot it so easily... wait! I got it again!
Right. Last chapter, it was mentioned several times that 'any cultivators would be able to...' bla bla
This means that cultivators and cultivators only would be able to see Shuhang's sermon. Which means that no matter how many worlds gets this TV-reception service, if they're not a cultivator, they won't be able to view it. So with the exception of some beings due to... reasons... others like Ddraig or Albion won't be seeing this. Sorry peeps that wanted to see some jelly dragons :3

'Heaven's Path Is Imperfect'
Just from that one line from Shuhang alone had already made quite a big impact on the cultivation community. Those of the junior level didn't really understand what that meant, but they felt that it would become a very important factor in their future of cultivation. With that, they decided to firmly commit this particular line deeply into their mind. They might not know it now, but just this simple action had already opened up a great many possibilities for them.
[Venerable Seventh Path: "Sigh, fellow daoist Dragon Emperor's knowledge of the profound is truly immeasurably deep...]
With that simple sentence, all the other 6th Stage cultivators and higher also voiced their agreements. As the higher senior levels didn't elaborate however, the lower level juniors could only stay lost within a veil of mist that eludes them of the truth. It's not as if the seniors within the Nine Province(s) Chat Group were purposefully withholding their understanding, it's just that they themselves don't fully understand it either, or at all for that matter.
The ones who received the biggest shock and benefits were the other Saints and Tribulation Immortals. This is especially so for the Tribulation Immortals which most immediately received some of enlightenment. Due to the unique situation perpetuated, albeit unknowingly, by Shuhang himself, this is happening across all the multiple realms and realities.
The amount of Karmic Virtue he's receiving was astonishing such that it became strong enough to be able to materialize itself. It in fact, did materialize right away just below Shuhang himself and seem to have even gained it's own sentience. The Light of Karmic Virtue that is in the likeness of Ddraig himself, before his upgrade though, came into being and let loose a domineering roar which could be felt by all watching this segment.
In the HQ of the Boundless Demon Sect, Young Master Hai stared into the void with bloodshot eyes and a trembling hand. The other that was still holding onto a 'Saber' had its grip tightened until it broke skin. Upon his face was a mixture of rage, fear, and crazed determination. To think that the person he swore revenge upon no matter what turned out to be a Saint candidate... no he already is one at this point. The materialization of that Karmic Virtue is definite proof that his ascension would succeed.

Back with Shuhang, he was definitely very surprised at the sudden influx of Karmic Virtues with just his opening speech. Even more so when a mini Ddraig materialized itself beneath him before letting out that roar which seemed as if it was daring any and all to challenge it's might. The real Ddraig that was also as surprised as Shuhang was. He was even blinking and rubbing his eyes a couple times to make sure he wasn't seeing things.
With great control over his body, Shuhang didn't let any of his surprise to show and resumed with his intended lecture. He did so by outlining the whole process of cultivation all the way from the 'Transcending Mortality' stage up to Eternal Being level and all of their flaws. Every words spoken by Shuhang were nothing but 'perfection' itself and to no surprise, caused a resonance of the World's Great Way. Why wouldn't it be perfect? The script he's reading was something that Shuhang had quickly compiled from the 'Library' after all.
All around Shuhang, it seemed as if the Heaven itself is playing the music while Shuhang's voice was the singing of a profound immortal. This in turn gave way to even more Karmic Virtue steadily flowing in as the many... many cultivators out there were receiving massive benefits and earning their respect and admiration.
The next few words that left Shuhang's mouth however, instantly brought everyone back down to Earth from their cloud nine. With as much seriousness and solemnity as possible, Shuhang loudly proclaimed to all under heaven to what he really thought.
"This process however... is not the correct way. It is a mistake!"

Suddenly being woken up from their dizzy spell, the chat group exploded into a flurry of shocked conversations.
[Mad Saber Three Waves: "WTF?! Did... did senior Dragon Emperor just say that the way of cultivation that had been passed down from generations to the next since ancient times... is a mistake!?
