Chapter 1114: Chapter 1062 – 1063 Life Simulation – Yang God Artifact Each Takes What They Need_2 Chapter 1114: Chapter 1062 – 1063 Life Simulation – Yang God Artifact Each Takes What They Need_2 Although his Dao of Supreme also has ultimate treasures, Meng Wushang understood that the Creator Sect Master who wielded those treasures, even if the Boat of Creation was merely an imitation, was not so easily dealt with.
And Shenxiao True Monarch had effortlessly seized the Staff of Glory, although unknown by what method, it definitely involved special Divine Abilities, which would absolutely be a trump card when facing the Creator Sect Master.
“I see that the brother has plans to establish a sect in the Great Thousand Worlds, but the various Religious Sects and noble families have already occupied the interests. As a newcomer, even if the brother has great power, he would face constraints and not be able to act freely,” Meng Wushang continued, “So if the brother is willing, after the Destruction of Creation Dao, most of its territory can be handed over to the brother, allowing Shenxiao Tao to leap and become one of the top Religious Sects in the Great Thousand Worlds.”
Meng Wushang had prepared well in advance to persuade Shenxiao True Monarch before coming, and his primary aim in Destroying Creation Dao was to supplement his own foundation. As for the territories and interests of Creation Dao, he didn't actually need them.
It's not that these interests were beneath the Dao of Supreme, but Meng Wushang knew that they could take a portion of these interests, yet they definitely could not swallow it all.
In the Great Thousand Worlds, there are countless Religious Sects and noble families, although Dao of Supreme and Creation Dao are leading top-level Religious Sects with powerful forces.
But Meng Wushang also knew that if he truly had the ability to kill the Creator Sect Master and Destroy Creation Dao, he could absorb a portion of the interests but could not possibly swallow all the interests completely.
Because the rest of the top Religious Sects and noble families would not allow it, they would absolutely not permit a colossal entity that has swallowed Creation Dao to appear in Central State.
In the past, Dynasties suppressed the world, and the Saintly Emperor commanded the universe; all the philosophers of the Hundred Schools of Thought and Saintly Sages broke the Dynasty's oppression by using Religious Sects and noble families to counterbalance the world, not allowing a single Dynasty to dominate.
However, the Dao of Supreme is already a top Religious Sect with vast influence now. If it truly destroyed the Creation Dao and assimilated everything, then in a few hundred years, a mightily powerful Religious Sect would emerge in the Great Thousand Worlds.
Such a sect, with unmatched suppressive power over all parties, would be no different from the Dynasty that once suppressed the Eight Directions, and perhaps even more terrifying.
To them, the destruction of Creation Dao might cause other Religious Sects and noble families to watch indifferently, waiting to divide the interests like hyenas, but they would absolutely not allow the Dao of Supreme to dominate alone.
“Since I've paid the price, instead of letting others obtain these things, it's better to gift them to Shenxiao True Monarch in exchange for support, and let him establish Shenxiao Tao as our ally,” Meng Wushang reasoned with the many elders of the Dao of Supreme.
They were destined to only gain the most essential part of the interests after the Destruction of Creation Dao. The rest of the interests were only there to be seen, not touched.
However, instead of letting other parties take and become strong, it's better to use this as a favor, to give to Shenxiao Tao. A Shenxiao Tao rising from the ashes of Creation Dao might bite off more than it can chew, but it won't pose a threat in the short term.
Moreover, if Shenxiao Tao gained everything from Creation Dao, it would signify that the rest of the Religious Sects and noble families lost interests, which would inevitably cause dissatisfaction among other parties. Shenxiao Tao, for its own sake, would need to align with the Dao of Supreme and become their ally.
This multifaceted strategy was all gain and no loss for the Dao of Supreme, and it also maximized their interests.
“In that case, it can be done,” Pei Xuanjing nodded in agreement.
Of course, Pei Xuanjing was keenly aware of these calculations behind the Dao of Supreme.
However, he showed no sign of rejection or dissatisfaction because what Meng Wushang was using were Open Schemes; as long as Pei Xuanjing wished to proceed this way, these were steps he must undergo.
Or to say, even if he didn't agree to take everything from Creation Dao, wouldn't Pei Xuanjing's Shenxiao Tao then provoke the discontent and opposition from other Religious Sects and noble families?
What a joke, that would be impossible.
Any rising force is bound to be an affront to the established power system; as new powers grow, it is often inevitable that they will encroach upon the interests of existing forces–this is an indisputable fact.
Therefore, unless Pei Xuanjing were to abandon the idea of founding the ShenxiaoTao, his efforts to elevate it would inevitably lead to friction with other Religious Sects and noble families.
It may seem that Pei Xuanjing had formed some fellowship with the powerful members of various sects and families during exchanges and sparring, but this rapport existed only as long as it did not harm their interests; once a dispute over interests emerged, those individuals would undoubtedly turn heartless, without a moment's hesitation.
Originally, Pei Xuanjing's push for the escalation of the Dynasty-changing Great War was to use this calamity as a means to sift through the various forces of the Great Thousand Worlds, to clear out some powers, and then as a newcomer, take over the vacuums left by these forces.
With this foothold, he would then leverage the strength of the new Dynasty, continuously growing in power, and bringing prosperity to the ShenxiaoTao, amassing more Power of Faith for himself.
However, Meng Wushang's plan undoubtedly afforded Pei Xuanjing more options, sparing him many troubles and potentially catapulting him to new heights in a single step.
Yes, this would lead to great trouble and dissatisfaction among other Religious Sects and noble families. But even if Pei Xuanjing were to follow his original plan, the rise of ShenxiaoTao would inevitably involve these challenges–it's unavoidable.
Perhaps for other forces, swallowing the benefits of the Creation Dao might lead to indigestion, but for Pei Xuanjing, there were no such worries.
As long as he made no mistakes, he would have ample time to assimilate these benefits and suppress everything himself, without a worry in the world.
“It's a pleasure to work together!”
“It's a pleasure to work together!”
The two looked at each other and smiled, having reached an agreement. There was no need for any pacts, for such powerhouses follow their hearts and do not require restraint or break their promises.
“But next, we need to put an end to this Dynasty change, right?” Meng Wushang said to Pei Xuanjing.
For Meng Wushang, there was no need to drag on the affair of Dynasty change to the very end–having allowed the Da Ye royal family and the ancestral founder of Da Ye to struggle for so long, it was time to reap everything, as the other side no longer held any value.
“Good!” Pei Xuanjing nodded.
The two left the Shenxiao Taoist Academy, but within a moment, they had arrived at the Allied Army Camp.
The joint arrival of these two individuals caught the powerhouses of various sects and noble families by surprise, but they didn't take it too seriously, keeping any speculation to themselves, without showing anything outwardly.
Even the Creator Sect Master, upon seeing the mysterious and powerful Shenxiao True Monarch and Meng Wushang of the Dao of Supreme working together, held various guesses in his heart but chose not to make any declarations at this time.
Every powerhouse has their own understanding and judgment; he was clear that no matter what, he had no reason to inquire, especially since Meng Wushang was a longstanding adversary, and questioning would yield nothing.
Another reason was his confidence in his own strength; as a powerhouse standing at the peak of the Great Thousand Worlds, he was fully confident in his power. Moreover, with the Yang God Artifact, the Boat of Creation, at his disposal, even a joint effort from the two would pose no threat to him.
The pressing matter at hand was dealing with the issues of the Da Ye Dynasty; dealing with an adversary like the Dao of Supreme, he knew, could not be resolved in an instant.
Although Pei Xuanjing had not revealed himself in recent years, with his previous challenges to the powerhouses of all directions, his appearance here was a clear statement of his position. His choice not to support the Da Ye Dynasty would only be welcomed by the various sects and noble families; there would be no rejection whatsoever.
