Chapter 1444: Chapters 1392-1393: Ambitions of Overcoming Calamity, Scheming True Immortal Chapter 1444: Chapters 1392-1393: Ambitions of Overcoming Calamity, Scheming True Immortal The path of cultivation is long and fraught with obstacles; each step upwards is incredibly tough. Every minor stage, every major Realm, blocks countless people, causing many to halt their progress, unable to move forward even an inch.
And various causes, tribulations, internal reasons, and external demises on the path of cultivation greatly increase the risks, possibly leading to untimely death.
In the Divine Land World, the human race and the Demon Race, with their countless populations, gave birth to just over twenty True Immortal Strong after tens of thousands of years.
From this, one can understand the difficulty of achieving True Immortal status; it's akin to ascending to the heavens.
Those who have certified themselves as True Immortals have all undergone innumerable trials. These True Immortals, each of them famed, are strong enough to suppress All Heavens.
Even up to today, the number of True Immortals recorded as having perished can be counted on one's fingers, and their falls have led to the rise and fall of races and to the shift of heavenly powers.
Let alone ordinary Supreme Strong, not every True Immortal among the many has a record of suppressing other True Immortals. And only those who can suppress True Immortals of the same realm are truly invincible in this era, making even True Immortals step aside.
Take for instance the Longevity Taoist Monarch, Pei Xuanjing, reputed as the number one person in the Divine Land World. His renown was not built on mere flattery but was established when he suppressed several True Immortal Monster Gods of the Demon Race with his own hands during the War of Sealing Gods.
It was upon their slain bones that the Longevity Taoist Monarch established his awe-inspiring dignity, causing the other seasoned True Immortals to dread him immensely; they knew that True Immortals' undying natures applied to ordinary cultivators, but the Longevity Taoist Monarch possessed the power to suppress True Immortals.
And now for the Star Lord Due to even contemplate doing the same, it's utterly arrogant to the extreme–it would be laughed at and ridiculed as someone trying to imitate the gait of someone from Handan.
Slaying Immortals!
This is an extremely difficult act, and it's even considered taboo within the Divine Land World, especially when True Immortals can truly fall.
Some words can be jokingly said, while others should not even be mentioned.
Moreover, the same words spoken by different cultivators imply different meanings.
It's like many cultivators who have just started on the path and feel that Blue Heaven is unfair, shouting words of defying heaven–such words appear as jokes to the truly strong.
But if it is a True Immortal or a Supreme Strong who utters such slogans, then it carries a different meaning, for they are not like ordinary cultivators; they have the power and capability to accomplish such tasks, powerful enough to threaten heaven and earth.
Just like this plot to slay True Immortals, when spoken by an ordinary cultivator, it's likely to be a joke; but seen from Star Lord Due and other Supreme Overlords' perspective, it's very likely achievable.
Humans don't quibble with ants, but they definitely stay wary of surrounding wild beasts. Even if these beasts might not kill them, they can bring harm, which is something humans would rather avoid.
These Supreme Overlords are like the wild beasts around True Immortals–they pose a threat to them. All the more after Emperor Wenchang, Wang Boan shattered the myth of True Immortals' invincibility, diminishing reverence for True Immortals among many Supreme Overlords to an unknown extent.
If previously True Immortals disregarded the Supreme Overlords, now they must be vigilant, as they are very likely to become a threat.
Though there have never been cases of True Immortals falling at the hands of Supreme Overlords, there have been instances of their defeats. No one dares to take it lightly, for it would mean not just losing face, but also life.
Thus, what Star Lord Due is attempting to do is a taboo act, something intolerable to True Immortals, and is likely to provoke their hostility.
And now, Star Lord Due, in his daring madness, actually intends to slay immortals, to turn their blood, their Immortal Path into his own foundation, thereby stepping foot into the Immortal Path.
Such news, if spread, would undoubtedly shock heaven and earth.
It signifies that he, on behalf of all strong beings of the Strongest Realm, is challenging True Immortals. Should he succeed, it would mean True Immortals would no longer be feared, tearing apart their veil of mystery and casting them down to the mortal realm.
To cultivate oneself with the blood of True Immortals is a Demonic Way, an utterly insane practice of the Demonic Way. Yet if successful, it will undoubtedly draw the pursuit of countless followers, especially those strong beings who find themselves at an impasse, after all, victors aren't blamed.
Such a wild method could only have been conjured up by Star Lord Due, born of the Demonic Way.
In fact, when he initially proposed this idea, he only vaguely revealed it to the Fate Controller Star Lord to gauge her reaction and indirectly probe the stance of her patron, the Emperor of the South Pole Eternal Life.
After all, the Fate Controller Star Lord, herself a Supreme Overlord, is also blocked before the Immortal Path Realm, unable to step into it. One wonders whether she would miss such an opportunity.
Furthermore, it is widely known that she is under the protection of the South Pole Eternal Life, blessed by that Taoist Monarch. Otherwise, a being practicing the Path of Destiny who has not yet stepped into True Immortality could not enjoy her current freedom.
Had Star Lord Due's previous audacious proposals been just his own bold musings, this time, his probing inquiry surprisingly gained the approval of the Fate Controller Star Lord and the implicit acquiescence of the Emperor Monarch, undoubtedly giving him a hundredfold confidence.
