/ The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings Chapter 1251
Chapter 1251: Chapters 1200-1201: The Taoist Monarch is Supreme, Ten Halls of Yama Chapter 1251: Chapters 1200-1201: The Taoist Monarch is Supreme, Ten Halls of Yama It was not just that, but these strong beings even sought out powerful figures of the Yin Department to find opportunities to establish relationships, paving the way for their future reincarnations.
Or perhaps some strong beings who could ascend to immortality but whose confidantes, relatives, and friends had no such chance–would they seek out the Yin Department when the time came, wishing to grant these people another life?
Ordinary mortal cultivators, well, they naturally didn't need to worry about the faces of these powerful beings.
But what about other gods, even True Immortals?
Even for gods and True Immortals as strong as they were, they couldn't ensure that all their descendants and disciples were gifted enough to ascend. What if they wanted to plan their progeny's and disciples' next lives?
They could stand against one or two, but what if these True Immortals and gods acted together? They would inevitably be unstoppable.
All of this wasn't the main issue; the key was that the emergence of reincarnation meant the future became controllable.
So, for these True Immortals and gods, if they wanted their sects and ancient countries to flourish with more geniuses, would they refrain from meddling with reincarnation?
If they were allowed to intervene at will, then chaos would ensue in the world. The strong would always prevail, the weak forever subjugated. These True Immortals and gods would occupy all benefits in the world–which wouldn't be good for the world.
Even if the Witch God Sect Leader and the likes didn't care about the weak, letting things go unchecked as holders of the reins of reincarnation in the Yin Department would definitely not be good news for themselves.
The Honored God Hou Tu, who held authority in the Netherworld, if she allowed chaos to reign, would inevitably lose her power and suffer backlash.
Therefore, the Witch God Sect Leader and others were clear; opening up reincarnation was just the beginning. If it failed, then so be it.
But if it succeeded, it would be one of the biggest cakes in the history of heaven and earth, coveted by countless strong beings. Even if the Witch Deity Teaching were the pioneers, with three True Immortals in place, and even awaiting Zhu Jiuyin, the Witch God to certify as a True Immortal, they still couldn't prevent it.
Such interests were too significant; they couldn't possibly monopolize them alone. The benefits were wholly worthy of a unified assault from those strong beings.
To defend such benefits and maintain the normal operation of the world, preventing the disturbance of reincarnation, they had to stop the strong beings.
Such interests, if those strong beings united, would be difficult even for the Longevity Taoist Monarch to suppress.
However, if the Nether Yin Department was opened by the Longevity Taoist Monarch, and he held the supreme authority of the Yin Department, as its ruler, and then had the support of other True Immortals, that would be enough to suppress others' intentions.
“Heh, you all are quite the schemers, including I in your calculations,” Pei Xuanjing perhaps didn't realize this earlier, but now he understood these people's intentions instantaneously.
The interests of the Yin Department were significant. Without his support, if they ventured to open it alone, many True Immortals together would act against it, and Pei Xuanjing himself would have no reason to stop them, for he too had disciples and couldn't go against the major trend.
But if the Yin Department were opened by him, then it could be like laying down the Heavenly Court's laws beforehand for the Yin Department, thus maintaining stability was possible.
He would carry the supreme authority of the Yin Department, but he would also become the greatest protector of the Yin Department. In this case, he would become the greatest protector of the Yin Department.
As long as no one could challenge him, then the rules of the Yin Department couldn't be broken by anyone, which also meant that the authority of Honored God Hou Tu would not be impacted.
“If people meddle with reincarnation, it is bound to lead to a disturbance of Yin and Yang and the collapse of the world. This does not serve the interest of the Taoist Monarch,” said the Witch God Sect Leader with a smile.
He knew Pei Xuanjing's character well–the other party indeed had thoughts of maintaining the world, but for such matters, significant benefits needed to be offered, or it meant nothing.
“So how can I be sure that you will abide by the rules of reincarnation?” Pei Xuanjing asked, looking them in the eye.
He had seen enough of Dragon Slayers turning into evil dragons.
How many people vowed lofty ambitions in their youth, yet when they found themselves in high positions, they lost their original intent.
These people before him claimed they wanted to maintain reincarnation and the operation of the world, but who's to say that after a long time in control of reincarnation, they wouldn't lose their original intent.
“If one day they lose their original intent, the Taoist Monarch can naturally strip them of their authority. After all, the Netherworld was opened by the Taoist Monarch, who holds the power of dominion,” said Honored God Hou Tu resolutely and unflinchingly.
As one of the Six Imperials, the Netherworld was within her domain. If she had never gained control, it would be one thing; but once she did, any turmoil in the Netherworld would cause her foundation to crumble.
Pei Xuanjing remained silent as if contemplating something, and the others did not rush him, silently awaiting his deliberation.
Pei Xuanjing would not deny that he had indeed been persuaded by these people. It wasn't so much that they were eloquent persuaders but because he truly needed these things which aligned with his interests.
To persuade others was never about being articulate; the fundamental basis always had to do with whether what you proposed aligned with the other party's interests, leading to a win-win situation, at least an apparent win-win–that was the foundation of persuading others.
Just like the situation at hand, opening the Yin Department brought significant benefits to them, allowing them to perfect their authority. Likewise, for Pei Xuanjing, opening the Yin Department held tremendous benefits.
