The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings Chapter 1461

Chapter 1461: Chapters 148-149: Inverting the Heavenly Stem!_2 Chapter 1461: Chapters 148-149: Inverting the Heavenly Stem!_2 “Hmph, all of them are restless fellows, each aspiring to trample on our heads, truly defiant of the Heavenly Stem!” Blood Fiend Ancestor blocked a Great Ancient Emperor with a casual wave of his sleeve, looked at the actions of those Star Lords and Heavenly Kings, and cursed out loud.

With his ability, he could easily suppress this Great Ancient Emperor, but Blood Fiend Ancestor had no intention of taking direct action. Because he had realized that these Star Lords and Heavenly Kings were all ambitious.

Looking at their choice of opponents, all of them were ordinary beings among the Great Ancient Emperors. This proved that these Star Lords and Heavenly Kings had long harbored these ideas, otherwise there would not be such tacit understanding.

Thinking how he and others had protected this world for their benefit, allowing them to temper themselves and seek opportunities for Tao certification, but these wretches harbored grand ambitions to rise to power by stepping on their heads, how could this not infuriate an old devil like Blood Fiend Ancestor.

“Enough, stop complaining. Isn't that the purpose of our descent into this world?” Profound Heaven True Monarch said indifferently, not taking it seriously at all.

Unlike Blood Fiend Ancestor, Profound Heaven True Monarch was once the true leader of the Righteous Path, especially before the Longevity Taoist Monarch appeared, and when their Xuantian Sect was still commanding the Righteous Path. At that time, Profound Heaven True Monarch knew clearly that the various forces seemingly following his lead, each one of them, wanted to overthrow him and take his place.

A force that does not want to be the boss is not a qualified underling.

At least now, these Star Lords and Heavenly Kings could still recognize reality, knowing that they were no match for True Immortals, they could only think about it in their hearts, while actually maintaining a minimum of respect for True Immortals.

Just like the rise of the Sword Sect, which threatened the status of their Xuantian Sect. Except when interacting with the human race and Demon Race, when they would not drag each other down, at other times, when did they not sabotage each other and compete fiercely?

So for the ambitions revealed by these Star Lords and Heavenly Kings, Profound Heaven True Monarch thought this was just a minor scene, a mere trifle.

“Hmph, that's true. Let them get carried away with ambition. In the end, they will still have to drink the washwater of the ancestors. They could never imagine that their own efforts would ultimately become nourishment for the ancestors,” Blood Fiend Ancestor sneered and no longer took the matter to heart.

However, from the brief exchange between him and Profound Heaven True Monarch, it seemed not difficult to deduce a message–that they had schemes behind the scenes, and these schemes not only accounted for all the actions of the Fate Controller Star Lords but also calculated the involvement of all Star Lords and Heavenly Kings.

Several Star Lords joined forces to challenge the Ancient Sun Emperor, intending to suppress the Ancient Sun Emperor and plunder the laws for creation, to achieve their own True Immortal Great Tao. This was initially proposed by Star Lord Due.

But as time went on, even Star Lord Due began to waver in confidence, suspecting that it might be the Eternal Divine Monarch pushing from behind, and he was merely the decoy put forward.

However, what Star Lord Due and the others didn't know was that the true instigator behind this was the Eternal Divine Monarch, but not solely him.

This matter was brought up by the Longevity Taoist Monarch, but it also received approval and permission from many other True Immortals. Later, the Fate Controller Star Lord and Star Lord Yi Suan joined as planners and executors, resulting in today's situation.

After all, True Immortals are never fools, especially those who have descended into this world. Although they were aware that the Eternal Divine Monarch went into seclusion to express his stance and left everything to them, they would definitely not neglect their attention to the Eternal Divine Monarch.

They had personally experienced how this Emperor rose to power, his every surprise move causing shock and awe, so they inevitably paid close attention to avoid being caught off-guard.

It was not only the Emperor of Longevity; even the Star Lords he brought along were closely watched by the other True Immortals.

Therefore, this destined one thing, no matter how meticulous the strategies of the Fate Controller Star Lords were, as long as these True Immortals weren't intentionally overlooking, they simply couldn't be deceived.

Thus, from the beginning, this plan was known to many True Immortals and sanctioned by them, and for this very reason, it was able to proceed smoothly because, at times, these True Immortals would not only not obstruct but would also lend a hand in covering for them, checking for omissions and filling the gaps.

However, since this plan had been approved by many True Immortals, they were indifferent to the attempts of the Supreme Overlords to suppress the Great Ancient Emperors and were not afraid of such challenges.

A flower in a greenhouse, not having weathered the frost and snow, always lacks resilience.

If these Fate Controller Star Lords were made aware of the numerous backers behind them, knowing they had a safety net, then while undertaking this task, because they had a fallback plan, they would have less resolve, less determination for a do-or-die fight.

The reason for not informing them was to apply more pressure on these Star Lords and Heavenly Kings, to enable them to muster more robust will, more decisive resolution, and to stimulate greater potential in the end.

These True Immortals were unconcerned with offending others, for their goal was to cultivate powerful beings who could truly stand on their own, future pioneers to unfold the world–not a group of vassals; such holds no meaning or value for them.

“Let's hope they can succeed! Even if only one or two make it, even if the rest fail, that will be enough!” A cold and determined light glimmered in the eyes of the Profound Heaven True Monarch.

The gulf between the Supreme Overlords and the True Immortals was vast, perhaps those Supreme Overlords themselves thought they were but a step away from the True Immortals, possessing great value.

But in the eyes of the True Immortals, it wasn't so, only True Immortals had the right to stand by their side, deserving their attention, the rest of the Supreme Overlords were inconsequential, unless they were like Emperor Wenchang–who could suppress the True Immortals–otherwise, they were not worthy of notice.

Therefore, even though they let these Supreme Overlord Star Lords and Heavenly Kings strive, they didn't believe everyone would succeed. In their view, if so many Supreme Overlords could be exchanged for one or two True Immortals, it would be worthwhile.

As long as one or two True Immortals emerged, it would be a sure gain for them.

As pioneers, they indeed had paid an unimaginable price on the path forward, but the rewards they could obtain were also far beyond what ordinary cultivators could achieve.

Just like the current situation in the Divine Land World, even if these pioneers hadn't adopted a conservative stance of suppressing the later generations, it did not mean the latter could easily catch up with, much less surpass them.

As pioneers, as beings that ascended together with the Divine Land World, their advantages were hard for the successors to match, the biggest difference being the manifestation of Heavenly Authority.

They were the first batch of True Immortals born after the ascension of Heaven and Earth, blessed with the favor of Heaven and Earth's Qi Luck, possessing Heavenly Authority that successors could hardly imagine. As long as they didn't lose the favor of Heaven and Earth's Qi Luck, the stronger the world became, the more they themselves would grow stronger.

The efforts of the successors would also gain Heaven and Earth's favor for their significant contributions, but the share they could obtain was destined to be limited, never surpassing that of the pioneers.

If an analogy were to be made, then if the Divine Land World were seen as a corporation, these earliest True Immortals were the founders of the corporation, holding a significant portion of the shares. As the corporation grew, their shares would appreciate, and they would receive corresponding dividends and rewards.

While the later powerful beings could be seen as the core of the corporation, especially talented salespeople, their existence would indeed bring corresponding rewards with the corporation's growth, even dividends, but they ultimately missed the chance to obtain the original shares and could only receive second-tier rewards.
