The Sims: I Open The Immortal Path For All Beings
/ The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings Chapter 1337
Chapter 1337: Chapters 1284-1285_2 Chapter 1337: Chapters 1284-1285_2 All the True Immortals and Imperial Honors nodded in agreement, each departing to summon their trusted divine beings.
The Heavenly Court was home to a multitude of gods, and although the world to be developed this time required a significant number of these divine beings, not all of them were expected to participate.
Apart from some who would continue to explore new worlds and some who needed to stay behind to guard the Heavenly Court, only a limited number of spots remained for the second batch of gods to set forth to that particular world.
The status of this world was not low, necessitating that each participating god be no weakling, or possess some unique ability; otherwise, they could only wait, perhaps looking for other opportunities.
Although in his heart Zhu Houji, the Jade Emperor, did not agree with Pei Xuanjing's methods of handling the world, he had no choice but to actively and eagerly participate, in the hope of gaining more benefits under the circumstances where defiance was impossible.
Without a doubt, in the upcoming struggles both within the Heavenly Court and between worlds, more power and benefits would be needed. Sufficient power could suppress all others to ensure one's voice is heard, and sufficient benefits could garner more support while weakening opposition.
After Pei Xuanjing had left, his incarnation did not immediately return to Shenxiao Domain within the Shenxiao Mountain, but instead went to the Shenxiao House of Jade Purity of the Emperor of the South Pole Eternal Life. There, True God of the Thunder Department, Pang Hong, along with a few core gods of the Shenxiao Sect within the Heavenly Court, had been waiting for quite some time.
“I have reached an agreement with all the True Immortals and Imperial Honors. Our Shenxiao Lineage will have five gods descending this time; you will decide who they are,” Pei Xuanjing said to Pang Hong.
Within the Heavenly Court, counting all the True Immortals and Imperial Honors, there were dozens. Even if each one had a quota of five under them, the number of gods dispatched to that world in this group would exceed a hundred.
Compared to the countless Martial Artists of that world, a hundred or so might seem inconsequential, like a drop in the ocean.
But in terms of quality, they were truly worlds apart. This time, the lead would undoubtedly be taken by True Immortals and Imperial Honors, with Star Lords and True Gods following behind.
Even though they would all descend in the form of incarnations, the incarnations of these veteran True Immortals were comparable to the existence of Great Ancient Emperors, and those of the Imperial Honors and newly ascended True Immortals were on par with the Fire Virtue Star Lord, capable of challenging the Great Ancient Emperors of the Supreme King Realm.
Adding to that the remaining Star Lords and True Gods, who, with resources already assembled at the heavenly gate, could step into the King Realm and the Supreme King Realm within a short time. Such a force was sufficient to compare with all the powers of that other world combined.
That was the terrifying aspect of the Heavenly Court. Although it seemed that the high-end forces of both worlds were not much different, the foundation of the Heavenly Court was far superior to that of the other world and was unified, with an abundance of younger, stronger forces.
Not to mention, as each of the many gods, at the very limit of the Supreme Strong, ascended, the Heavenly Court effectively gained a new True Immortal. On the other hand, even though the Supreme Kings of the other world could also ascend,
but let's not forget, before they have cultivated the new law, do they dare to ascend? If their ascension conflicts with the paths of the established Great Ancient Emperors, then they would have to fight among themselves internally.
“Your disciple obeys,” Pang Hong accepted the command, then asked, “Master, do you need your disciple to personally lead the expedition?”
Pang Hong was now the most powerful being in the entire Shenxiao Lineage apart from Pei Xuanjing. If the situation truly required his presence, he would naturally not shirk his duty.
“There is no need. That world does not currently require your presence; stay in the Heavenly Court. Besides, I have some other matters that I need you to attend to,” Pei Xuanjing shook his head, indicating refusal.
Everything in that world had been planned out, and the imminent arrival of many True Immortals and Imperial Honors leading the way would completely fill the last gap–the need for strength.
If all these beings took action together and were still unable to secure that world, then the addition of Pang Hong would be pointless, even though Pang Hong at this moment might be able to challenge the Great Ancient Emperors of that world, similar to the Fire Virtue Star Lord.
Other Star Lords go forth to secure ample benefits for themselves, but as for Pang Hong, he truly lacks nothing in terms of fortuitous opportunities for cultivation, at least not until he steps onto the Immortal Path.
Resources aren't necessarily better in endless abundance, especially for Supreme Overlords poised at the threshold of the Immortal Path, for after all, they are not True Immortals and do have their limits; too many resources simply cannot be consumed.
For Supreme Overlords, unless they follow the Earth Immortal Path, which requires the monetization of creation within a Small Thousand World, once they possess sufficient resources, what's more important is to first consider how they will step onto the Immortal Path–that should be their primary concern.
Moreover, even if Pang Hong does not go, with Pei Xuanjing present, no one will be shortchanged their share of the profits when it comes time to distribute them. As the True God of the Thunder Department, maintaining the Heavenly Court has its own merits.
“As Master commands!” Pang Hong nodded, uttering no more words.
Pei Xuanjing gazed at the several core individuals of the Shenxiao Lineage and said, “This time, as we expand into a new world, just one of you going will suffice; allocate the four remaining spots to others, to cultivate some new talent. After all, the task of world expansion in the future will be unceasing, and we will certainly need enough talent reserves.”
This time is merely the beginning. Compared to the future expansion plans of the Heavenly Court, there will inevitably be more worlds to explore, requiring even more manpower.
This time, rather than swiftly conquering this world, Pei Xuanjing and many True Immortals with Imperial Honors are more interested in leveraging this world as a proving ground, forging more talent, to nurture even more capable individuals.
The scope of the Heavenly Court's responsibilities is expanding; currently, they have plenty of hands to manage their affairs, but one must look to the long term, focusing on the future.
Once more worlds are discovered, the exploration of a world will truly involve only one True God or a number of True Gods collaborating, unless they encounter exceptionally powerful worlds. Otherwise, they must rely on their own capabilities.
In this situation, grooming backup talent and allowing them to rapidly grow is the optimal choice.
It's not just about world exploration but also about their own cultivation. If these successors wish to grow, they cannot always rely on the shelter provided by strong figures like Pei Xuanjing.
They must endure hardships, experience enough trials and tribulations, confront life and death, and complete these tasks alone to truly stand tall between heaven and earth; otherwise, they will never rise.
“Disciple understands. Our Shenxiao Lineage will also specifically focus on this training to meet all future needs,” Pang Hong responded maturely, understanding his master's intent.
Of course, unlike Master's perspective, which encompasses the entire cosmos, Pang Hong's was from the standpoint of their Shenxiao Lineage. The Shenxiao Sect too would certainly need to expand into more worlds in the future, and without sufficient talent, they wouldn't be able to seize the opportunities even if they presented themselves.
“There's no hurry. Exploring a world sometimes comes down to luck; there's no need to rush,” said Pei Xuanjing nonchalantly.
He added, “A world, even if it's the most ordinary life-bearing world, should not be underestimated. After all, life itself is filled with miracles. Hence, I instruct my disciples: Even when a new world is discovered, be cautious and meticulous, for safeguarding oneself is of utmost importance.”
The birth of every life-bearing world is a miracle in itself, and no one knows what wonders it may hold within. Perhaps some seemingly insignificant worlds are so perilous that even True Immortals must tread carefully.
Not just the deities of the Shenxiao Lineage but also the entire assembly of gods in the Heavenly Court–they are all indispensable to the Court. Therefore, unnecessary losses should be avoided as much as possible.
As a few individuals departed, Pei Xuanjing handed a jade slip to Pang Hong, within which he inscribed several tasks that needed Pang Hong's attention.
