Chapter 1371: Chapter 1318 – Chapter 1319 Govern by Doing Nothing, Arrival of the Strong_2 Chapter 1371: Chapter 1318 – Chapter 1319 Govern by Doing Nothing, Arrival of the Strong_2 Of course, whether this jade book is truly authored by Longevity Taoist Monarch remains unclear; however, every powerful figure who has obtained the jade book indisputably acknowledges that its teachings indeed carry substance.
Heavenly King Li, who aspired to the Immortal Path, naturally would not miss out on such a jade book. He had exchanged for one too, and as he flipped through it, he felt that some of the doctrines did not seem so profound and unlikely to be written by Longevity Taoist Monarch.
But even if it wasn't authored by Longevity Taoist Monarch, the contents must certainly originate from a True Immortal–otherwise, it would not be recognized by other powerful beings.
Therefore, in the eyes of a formidable figure like Heavenly King Li, this book might not have been personally written by Longevity Taoist Monarch. It is quite possible that it was compiled by some cultivators who had listened to the Taoist Monarch's teachings.
Similar to some of the scriptures left by sages of Confucian Gate, which were also compiled by their later disciples.
Regardless, the contents of the book were helpful to Heavenly King Li; otherwise, he wouldn't have been so engrossed in it.
After receiving the Jade Emperor's Decree, Heavenly King Li led his numerous Heavenly Soldiers and Generals to station here. As there were no significant affairs, Heavenly King Li spent his days studying the jade book extensively.
“Heavenly King, the Guiding Altar has reacted!” a Heavenly General briskly walked into the hall, joyfully reporting and breaking the quiet within.
These Heavenly Generals stationed here were tasked not only with preventing others from entering but also with monitoring the altar's activities at all times.
“The altar has reacted!” The jade book in Heavenly King Li's hand flashed and disappeared. He looked up, his eyes bright with joy, “It seems the Guiding Altar of that world has been activated, preparing to guide us there.”
Heavenly King Li had long anticipated this day; after all, he had also been granted the opportunity to descend to that world. He was very curious about what kind of opportunistic fortune he could obtain there.
Of course, Heavenly King Li was given the opportunity to participate not just because he was a confidant under the Jade Emperor but also because of his own strength and his ability to command armies.
In Heavenly Court, where powerful figures were as common as clouds, if one were to discuss individual combat power, there were countless who were stronger than him, especially considering the number of individuals at the Supreme Overlord level.
However, for the entire Heavenly Court, or for this Expansion Plan, what they needed was not just individual strength but also special abilities, and sometimes these special abilities were even more crucial than personal capacity.
Just as there are numerous True Immortals and Imperial Honors leading the teams this time, solely the South Pole Eternal Life Great Emperor who has already descended to that world is sufficient to handle top-tier enemies.
However, to dominate a world, those top-tier strong figures are only part of it. The cultivators of lower and middle tiers, although not top-tier in combat, are numerous in number.
At such times, there is a need to mobilize a large army to suppress and maintain stability in the new world. Yet in Heavenly Court, with its numerous strong figures, not every one of them is capable of commanding a large army.
For most powerful figures, commanding tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands is nothing; but once it exceeds half a million, they find themselves stretched thin. And if a world really resists, let alone five hundred thousand, assembling armies of five million or even fifty million is a simple task.
During the initial War of Sealing Gods between the human race and Demon Race, each side had tens of millions of troops, totaling more than ten million. And back then in the human race, the only person capable of commanding the Human race army was Emperor Wenchang, which subsequently cemented his status as a God of War.
And within that Human race army under the military command of God of War Emperor Wenchang, a group of excellent commanders emerged. Although these commanders were not on par with Emperor Wenchang, they were capable of commanding millions or even tens of millions of troops.
Among them, besides those who grew under the leadership of Emperor Wenchang like Yu Long and Qi Hu, Heavenly King Li was next in line.
Although individuals like Yu Long and Qi Hu had sufficient commanding abilities, their current strength had fallen somewhat short. Other potential generals who had both the strength and qualifications came from the Ancient Holy Land and not under the Jade Emperor, thus making Heavenly King Li the best choice under the Jade Emperor.
“Quickly inform His Majesty, and also send someone to notify the rest of the Great Emperors and all the True Gods,” Heavenly King Li commanded the heavenly general before him.
Since the altar had already responded, it was appropriate to invite their Imperial Honors, True Immortals, and True Gods to descend and then head to that world.
Soon after the message spread, various Imperial Honors, True Immortals, and True Gods continuously descended.
“May I ask, Taoist Monarch, if the altar can be activated now?” Great Emperor Ziwei inquired of Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing.
This altar had initially been built jointly by the Longevity Taoist Monarch, the Witch Deity Teaching, and members of the Taoist School, and they naturally wanted to know whether the response of the altar indicated that a message had been received.
It should be noted that although there were many Star Lords who had descended to that world, they were all currently in seclusion. And right now, as the Divine Tao incarnation of the Emperor of South Pole Eternal Life, Longevity Taoist Monarch himself was among the first batch of descendents, and he must surely know what had happened in that world and whether the altar had begun to be guided.
“That world has already begun to be guided. Next, please each invest your incarnations into the altar,” Pei Xuanjing addressed the gods.
Since he already had a Divine Tao incarnation that had descended in that world, he himself did not need to go, leaving him to preside over the affairs of the altar.
“If that's the case, then let's not delay any longer. Blood Fiend Ancestor here will go first!” A blood-colored silhouette rushed directly into the altar and soared into the sky.
Indeed, this was the incarnation of Blood Fiend Ancestor, whose true body had always remained in the Netherworld. This time, he came here merely as an incarnation. Of course, even as just an incarnation, with his current strength, this incarnation definitely possessed the combat power of a True Immortal.
Blood Fiend Ancestor had been curious about the existence of this new world for a long time, but when it originally came time to choose who would lead the numerous Star Lords to the new world, everyone tacitly opposed Blood Fiend Ancestor leading the team.
Unless the Demonic Way discovered it, or the new world was a Great World dominated by the Demonic Way, it would be impossible for the Heavenly Court to let these Demonic Way True Immortals go.
These Demonic Way True Immortals, who cared about nothing and acted as they pleased, if allowed into a world, could potentially escalate conflicts to a great extent, thus inevitably causing tremendous troubles for the future integration of the Heavenly Court.
During that day's council in the Heavenly Court, when a powerhouse raised this concern, it was surprising that even the True Immortals and Supreme Strong beings from the Demonic Way fell silent.
Indeed, this did seem somewhat discriminatory, but the True Immortals and Supreme Strong beings of Demonic Way origin could not deny that it was the truth.
Facing such an assertion, a few True Immortals of the Demonic Way naturally felt some dissatisfaction. Even though it was the truth, they had to voice their protest.
However, facing the will of the other True Immortals, they could only compromise in the end, but it did not entirely eliminate the opportunities for Demonic Way powerhouses.
According to the agreement reached that day, unless it was a new world explored by Demonic Way powerhouses, or a special world, the first batch of Demonic Way True Immortals were not allowed to lead alone.
After Blood Fiend Ancestor's incarnation entered the altar, several Supreme Strong beings of Demonic Way origin also stepped into the altar.
“If that old demon head has gone, I, the Ancestor Celestial Master, naturally can't fall behind.” With a light chuckle, an incarnation split off and stepped into the altar, followed closely by the Second Generation Heaven Master.
It so happened that the Second Generation Heaven Master had also reached the limit of the Supreme Strong, just one opportunity short of stepping onto the Immortal Path. Therefore, he placed a trace of possibility in this new world, seeking to find his fortune there.
As these two True Immortals led people into the altar, the many other True Immortals and Imperial Honors, along with their subordinates, ascended to the altar and headed to the new world.
