Chapter 1159: Chapter 1108 – Chapter 1109: The Deal with Bai Xiaosheng and The Ambitions of the Da Xue Country Lord Chapter 1159: Chapter 1108 – Chapter 1109: The Deal with Bai Xiaosheng and The Ambitions of the Da Xue Country Lord “`
Enthroning Gods, the lure of a Divine Position of Longevity is indeed tempting.
But that is for the majority of cultivators, especially those with insufficient talent or inadequate accumulation of their own; they need time, they need security.
However, for a supreme strong such as the Da Xue Country Lord, who have reached the pinnacle of the Spirit Realm, and can break through the Strongest Realm with their own strength, while also controlling a great force and not lacking resources, if there is a choice, they would prefer to certify as a True Immortal by their own power.
At that time, whether to continue holding the Divine Position or to strip themselves of it to maintain their independence is a choice they can freely make.
Nevertheless, he still had many curiosities about this Divine Position, feeling that everything now apparent in the world isn't as simple as it seems; there always seemed to be a layer of fog in front of him, through which he could not see.
“The will of True Immortals is elusive and unfathomable, and their actions are definitely not so simple; every move they make is profound,” the Da Xue Country Lord reflected upon the past, his thoughts turning endlessly in his mind.
Having lived countless years in this world, he knew the True Immortals very well; every move they made had deep significance and was never aimless.
Enthronement might appear to offer all cultivators the chance for longevity, but he didn't believe that the True Immortals had no schemes of their own, no plans for themselves.
Unfortunately, the plans of these True Immortals were not easily revealed, accessible only to those close to them.
Originally, Da Xue too had a chance to be protected by a True Immortal, but in the end, that opportunity was discarded.
So now he needed someone to uncover the secrets behind it all, as the truth might prove crucial for his future choices.
“Your Majesty, our guest has arrived!” a voice came from outside the great hall, breaking the silence within.
“Please enter!”
The Da Xue Country Lord lifted his head to look at the man who walked in, his voice echoing in the hall, “Bai Xiaosheng, I have long admired your reputation.”
The visitor was indeed Bai Xiaosheng, once an ally of Pei Xuanjing.
In the former Sky Wasteland, only one force dealt in the business of intelligence gathering, that was the Sky Mechanism Pavilion headed by Master Tian Ji.
As long as you paid a sufficient price, you could uncover any secret, a reputation that had persisted for thousands of years without fail.
After the merging of the two realms, with Pei Xuanjing's support, Bai Xiaosheng also continuously grew his forces.
Therefore, in this world now, there were three places to obtain intelligence: Sky Mechanism Pavilion, Bai Xiaosheng, and the Share System of the Taoist Academy.
However, the Share System of the Taoist Academy mostly involved mid to low-level information, and it was generally difficult to obtain top-level secret news. Moreover, one could not get answers quickly, which is why many people, most of the time, chose Sky Mechanism Pavilion and Bai Xiaosheng.
Logically, having conducted countless transactions with the Sky Mechanism Pavilion in the Sky Wasteland, the Da Xue Country Lord should have chosen it when seeking to understand the schemes of the True Immortals.
But unexpectedly, rather than choosing the Sky Mechanism Pavilion, the Da Xue Country Lord secretly had his subordinates invite Bai Xiaosheng instead.
“It is truly an honor for me to be recognized by the great Da Xue Country Lord,” said Bai Xiaosheng with a smile as he stood in the center of the great hall.
Yet, even in the presence of the illustrious and powerful Da Xue Country Lord–a formidable figure below only the True Immortals–Bai Xiaosheng maintained an attitude neither servile nor overbearing, without a trace of kowtowing due to the other's status and power.
This was quite special; indeed, considering that Bai Xiaosheng had just barely entered the Eighth-Layer Realm of the Spirit Realm and was not invincible even within the Eighth Layer, remaining so composed in the face of the Da Xue Country Lord's authority was remarkable.
Indeed, seeing Bai Xiaosheng's demeanor, the Da Xue Country Lord felt not dissatisfaction but instead appreciation and approval in his eyes.
Of course, this was predicated on the other's worthiness; if Bai Xiaosheng did not have the protection of the True Immortals behind him, were not of his status, any other cultivator from the Eighth-Layer Realm would probably have incurred his wrath long ago.
And what Bai Xiaosheng was doing was competing against Master Tian Ji in business; despite having the backing of True Immortals, for an ordinary cultivator who hadn't even set foot in the Strongest Realm to dare to compete with True Immortals–it was not just the courage, but his actions that other cultivators admired.
In fact, strong figures like the Da Xue Country Lord could see more: Bai Xiaosheng's actions were not just about competing for business with the True Immortals, rather it was about contending with the True Immortals for the Great Path.
True Immortals were invincible beings in the world, and even if many cultivators followed the same path as the True Immortals, facing the True Immortals at the forefront of the Great Path, most of them chose to step aside.
Among them, every cultivator who dared to contend with a True Immortal for the path, regardless of outcome, deserved admiration for their perseverance, character, and courage.
Even though Bai Xiaosheng had not yet entered the Supreme Strong Realm, in the eyes of the Da Xue Country Lord, it was only a matter of time. If he couldn't even reach that step, how could he talk of contesting the True Immortals?
Thus, such Bai Xiaosheng was actually his Taoist Friend, and the two naturally should treat each other as equals.
“Bai Xiaosheng's name is known throughout the world by all cultivators,” the Da Xue Country Lord offered modest praise before asking, “You must already know the purpose of why I invited you here today, don't you?”
