Chapter 1161: Chapter 1110–1111 Rise is Not a Coincidence Chapter 1161: Chapter 1110–1111 Rise is Not a Coincidence In that instant, all doubts were dispelled, and the Da Xue Country Lord understood which path to take next.
Understanding the true purpose behind Enthroning Gods, he realized that in the future, the Heavenly Court intended to have the Deities travel through Chaos in search of the Land of Life, to plunder its Original Source of Heaven and Earth and use it as nourishment to promote the rise of the Ancestral Land.
Such actions were not only devoid of resistance from the Da Xue Country Lord, but he also greatly approved of them. Even to a formidable figure like himself, these actions seemed only natural.
To the beings of the life worlds that would be forcibly integrated into the Great Ming World, such acts by the Great Ming World might appear to be invasions, plunder, unjust, and immoral.
But for a Cultivator who grew up in the Sky Wasteland, and the King who ruled the Da Xue Ancient Country, this was nothing more than the most basic competition, where the mightier decided everything and the weaker could only harbor desires.
The Da Xue Country Lord, such a powerful figure, or rather, all Cultivators of the Great Ming World, including the native Cultivators, were influenced by those who had returned from the Sky Wasteland.
Even though there were rules established by Pei Xuanjing that forbade them from harming Mortals, many matters among Cultivators were still decided by strength and weakness.
Indeed, plundering other worlds may seem unjust, but this is only because the other is weak and we are strong.
It's indisputable that if the roles were reversed, and the Great Ming World were the weaker party, when faced with a new life world, the others would surely invade and plunder as well.
Peace exists only on the basis of balance; once there is a distinction between the strong and the weak, peace simply cannot exist.
The temporary peace between the human race and the Demon Race was due to the fact that neither was stronger than the other, but now that the gap has widened, war has naturally erupted–an unavoidable outcome.
The enemy of one is the hero of another.
For those who are plundered, the defeated, the future gods of the Heavenly Court of the Great Ming World are enemies, with whom they share irreconcilable enmity.
But for the myriad beings of the Great Ming World, these gods protect them and contribute to the ascent of the Great Ming World; hence, they are heroes worthy of following and revering.
There are no absolutely good beings; it all depends on the standpoint one takes.
The sages and heroes revered by the human race for thousands of years are seen as archenemies in the eyes of the Demon Race.
Thus, upon hearing this news, the Da Xue Country Lord was excited, full of longing, ready to throw himself into advancing this cause, and was the last to oppose this move. Concerning matters of his own interest, he only feared not gaining enough or doing too little.
Even now, he began to envy the people of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty for, compared to the other forces without a True Immortal's protection, they had to strive to compete for Divine Positions.
The Great Ming Divine Dynasty, despite having no True Immortals at its helm, inherently held an advantage due to certain reasons, allowing them to secure more Divine Positions and gain an early advantage in the Heavenly Court–how could others not envy and admire this?
“Seeing how forthright the King is, I will offer you another piece of information that you may have already guessed,” Bai Xiaosheng's voice rang out once again, capturing the Da Xue Country Lord's attention.
“Once the Heavenly Court takes position, the Divine Tao will become prominent. I hope the King makes early preparations.”
Upon hearing this, the Da Xue Country Lord was first taken aback and then instantly understood its implication.
After the Enthroning Gods and the Heavenly Court taking position, the gods will seek the Land of Life and plunder its Origin to strengthen the Ancestral Land. As long as this path continues, with the ascent of heaven and earth, more and more Divine Positions will emerge, and the authority of the Deities will grow ever stronger.
By that time, although the Immortal Path is mighty, the speed of Cultivation will inevitably not keep up with the Divine Tao. Even if many True Immortals oversee, the practice of the Divine Tao, or specifically the Immortal Path involving the Divine Tao of the Gods, will inevitably flourish.
For most Cultivators, what they seek is Longevity, irrespective of the path they take.
In the past, Cultivators pursued the Immortal Path because it seemed to them the only way to have a chance at Immortality; the Divine Tao couldn't support them to this extent.
But now, with the Enfeoffment of the gods and the Heavenly Court established, the Divine Tao will prosper, and naturally, countless Cultivators will embark on the journey of the Divine Tao Cultivation, driven by the instinctive pursuit of beings.
“Thank you,” the Da Xue Country Lord expressed his gratitude.
Although with his wisdom, he would eventually come to this conclusion, some matters are vastly different if realized sooner rather than later.
At this moment, the matter of Divine Position enfeoffment wasn't yet wholly settled, so there was still a considerable opportunity for all Cultivators to obtain Divine Positions before the War of Sealing Gods concluded.
If one waited until the Heavenly Court took its place and the Divine Tao prospered, most of the Divine Positions in heaven and earth would have owners. For latecomers aiming to acquire more authority in Divine Positions, the difficulty would naturally differ.
Hence, the Da Xue Country Lord naturally owed Bai Xiaosheng gratitude.
His understanding of Bai Xiaosheng deepened by another layer; even with utmost caution, the other party still managed to curry favor with him, requiring recompense in the future.
Concerning such a favor, which was related to the future development of the Da Xue Ancient Country, he had no dissatisfaction and accepted it calmly.
“Since that's the case, I won't disturb the King any longer,” Bai Xiaosheng smiled faintly, his figure dissolving and, in a moment, becoming intangible.
Hmm?!
Watching Bai Xiaosheng vanish, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Da Xue Country Lord. He had not expected to have underestimated the renowned Bai Xiaosheng.
