Chapter 1544: Chapters 1492-1493 Chapter 1544: Chapters 1492-1493 “I believe,” I said, “we should take this opportunity to use the Great Law Decree Technique as a trial. Whoever can retrieve the Great Law Decree Technique or prevent the Jade Emperor from capturing it, and performs the best overall, should be the candidate for the next Sect Leader.”
Pei Xuanjing directly laid out a trial for these individuals, aiming to prevent the Jade Emperor from obtaining the Great Law Decree Technique.
“Thus, we can both choose an outstanding successor and thwart the Jade Emperor. It's undoubtedly a method that kills two birds with one stone,” Pei Xuanjing said, his gaze turning to the two. “What are your thoughts on this?”
Pang Hong and Yu Zhenzi exchanged a glance before responding, “Honorable master, this method truly serves two purposes well. But have you overlooked one thing? Since the news about the Great Law Decree Technique has spread, it will inevitably attract countless True Immortals and those Supreme Overlord peers. This means the level of strife will revolve around those of True Immortal Level, and those who are not True Immortals won't even qualify to participate. Even if they do, they'd merely be cannon fodder.”
He acknowledged that the plan proposed by their Sect Leader was excellent and without a single flaw, yet it overlooked one critical aspect: whether their Sect Leader candidates were qualified to partake in this trial.
It is known that within the Myriad Laws Realm, the Great Law Decree Technique is referred to as Supreme Divine Power, and is also considered a Supreme Divine Power according to the standards of the Divine Land World. Such a Divine Power could even tempt some True Immortal Taoist Monarchs if it resonates with them.
Indeed, the current appearance of the Great Law Decree Technique doesn't resonate with many True Immortal Taoist Monarchs; they might not be drawn to it and not take part. However, for other True Immortals, whether the Decree Technique resonates with them or not, just the allure of Supreme Divine Power is tempting enough.
If this Divine Power were currently in the possession of the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder or captured by the Jade Emperor, they naturally wouldn't harbor any intentions due to insufficient strength.
But now, since the Great Law Decree Technique has not been mastered by either of these two figures and is lost outside, even though it's under the Shenxiao Lineage's watchful eyes supported by both the Jade Emperor and the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, it's undeniably in a state of no ownership.
As such, it makes the struggle for this Supreme Divine Power worth it for these powerful individuals to offend both the Jade Emperor and the Shenxiao Lineage.
Offending the Jade Emperor is one thing, but they can also roughly guess that the Shenxiao Lineage doesn't put much importance on the Great Law Decree Technique. Their only desire is for this thing not to fall into the hands of the Jade Emperor.
Therefore, it's completely conceivable how fierce the competition for the Great Law Decree Technique will be and how many powerful individuals it will draw in.
Regarding the Shenxiao Sect's next Sect Leader candidates, according to Pang Hong's suggestion, they had already excluded several True Immortals and those Supreme Overlords comparable to True Immortals, opting to select from among these Supreme Strong and Supreme Overlords instead.
Granted, these Supreme Strong and Supreme Overlords are outstanding, each deemed invincible within their own Realm; however, not every one of them possesses the qualification to challenge True Immortals, and the True Immortals capable of contending for the Great Law Decree Technique are undoubtedly no weaklings, for the weak are unqualified.
“We can indeed conduct a test, but we cannot allow our disciples to venture on a suicidal mission to fulfill an impossible task as a challenge,” Yu Zhenzi added from the side.
This is also because Yu Zhenzi follows Pei Xuanjing, who is not someone overly harsh; therefore, Yu Zhenzi dares to speak in such a manner.
Were it another more rigid immortal sect, Yu Zhenzi, even being a True Immortal, wouldn't dare speak this way to a True Immortal.
Hearing Yu Zhenzi's words, Pei Xuanjing showed no displeasure, but rather indifferently responded, “Although we can't enhance the capabilities of these candidates, we can set a limit on the strength of the participants for this trial.”
“I will collaborate with various Taoist Monarchs to launch a trial for the competition of the Great Law Decree Technique. The trial will be open to cultivators below True Immortal level from any background. The final victor will receive corresponding rewards, whether they are Divine Abilities, Divine Weapon Immortal Tools, or Fortuitous Opportunities–all are possible.”
Pei Xuanjing laid out his idea for the trial.
Indeed, from the perspective of Pang Hong and the other individuals, the Great Law Decree Technique had already drawn out True Immortals, and the strengths of their Sect Leader candidates from the Shenxiao Sect seemed insufficient. They would be unable to participate and become mere cannon fodder if they tried forcefully.
Yet this was not something immutable. Perhaps it seemed difficult to others, but in the hands of Pei Xuanjing, changing this aspect was effortlessly done.
Whether he took matters into his own hands or suppressed the situation with an Immortal Artifact, he could seal off the entire Myriad Laws Realm, transforming it into a trial ground, and then allowing many Supreme Strong individuals to enter and compete.
Through this process, they would wait for the final trial to see who would emerge victorious or perform best, becoming the next Sect Leader for the Shenxiao Sect.
“If that is the case, I naturally have no objections. The final decision is up to the Sect Leader,” Pang Hong no longer raised any objections.
What he had initially been concerned about was the insufficient strength of the disciples. Even if they entered the competition, they would fail to exert their full power for various reasons and could jeopardize themselves.
