The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings
Chapter 1485 - Chapter 1485 Chapters 1432—1433 Internal Strife Demon Realm_2Chapter 1485: Chapters 1432–1433 Internal Strife Demon Realm_2 Chapter 1485: Chapters 1432–1433 Internal Strife Demon Realm_2 Regarding this matter, Monarch Qingxu had his own understanding and awareness; he knew what concerned Pang Hong, but felt these worries were unnecessary and not worth overemphasizing.
No one would completely agree with him, and it was the same with these powerhouses who hailed from the Divine Land World. Each had their own goals and pursuits, but what unified them was their common interest in seeking benefits, ultimately reaching cooperation despite their differences.
So the person he supported in this world could not possibly have completely aligned interests with his own.
What he sought was merely for the other party to bring benefits to him, not for them to devoutly follow him, which was unrealistic.
Especially after experiencing Pei Xuanjing’s rise to power, he became even clearer that none of his plans would be under his control one hundred percent, and accidents were inevitable. Hence, what mattered to him was simply to gain the benefits he desired; the rest was trivial.
An ant cannot shake a tree; with his own strength, he could easily ignore any accident, and even to put it bluntly, since Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing was involved in this matter, if one day that person slipped beyond his control, the Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing would handle the fallout.
If, after the intervention of Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing, the person still managed to turn the tables and escape, then it would no longer be his problem; it would be a problem for the entire Divine Land World.
“Master-uncle speaks the truth; your disciple has been overthinking,” Pang Hong nodded in agreement, admitting that he had indeed been worrying unnecessarily.
For the current Divine Land World and for the Heavenly Court, all they needed were resources. As long as resources were available, more powerful figures could be nurtured, and the world could elevate–that was sufficient.
As for the creatures in these explored worlds, if they were willing to join the Divine Land World and become part of it, the Heavenly Court was naturally willing to accept them. However, if they chose to stubbornly resist, the Heavenly Court would not tolerate them indefinitely.
Over the years, the Heavenly Court had explored many worlds, and not all were willing to submit. When facing such worlds, the Heavenly Court would naturally resort to thunderous measures, forcibly integrating them.
Though the many strong figures of the Heavenly Court tended to choose diplomacy before force in their expansion process, this did not mean they would not resort to thunderous methods.
“Now that you have heard about this world, do you have any thoughts, nephew? Does the True Martial Sect need to offer help?” Monarch Qingxu asked.
After years of effort, the True Martial Sect had firmly established its foothold in that world, and except for a joint strike from both Heavenly Court and the Demon Realm, nobody else could touch them.
However, it is known that the True Martial Sect had not yet revealed their identity to this day. Although they went by the name of the True Martial Sect, their external spokesperson was the local native supported by Monarch Qingxu.
Despite both Heavenly Court and Demon Realm feeling some aversion to a third-party force emerging during their standoff, to them, their real enemies were each other. Although this third-party force possessed considerable strength, they were not truly feared; once the time came, they could be easily crushed.
But this was only the surface situation; in reality, the True Martial Sect was far from as weak as they appeared. They might lack True Immortal-level combat power, but they fell short in no other respects.
With Monarch Qingxu orchestrating from behind the scenes, after the cultivators from the True Martial Sect arrived, they each took up key central roles within this power, manipulating this influence while also using it to plunder sufficient opportune fortunes for themselves.
Though no True Immortals had been born yet, many cultivators had broken through their previous realms and spawned several individuals at the Supreme Strong level.
According to the division of this world, those who have reached the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm and above qualify to be led to the Heavenly Court, where they undergo a transformation through the Immortal Pond to become members of the Immortal Race, and can be called Immortals.
And those mighty ones at the level of the Ninth Realm of Spirit, they are already powerful members of the Immortal Race, existing in the Heavenly Court second only to the Five Directions Gods; they have the power to suppress all sides and are the pillars of the Heavenly Court.
It was precisely because of such accumulated strength that Monarch Qingxu was so confident in his statement offering to help the other party.
After all, the task that Pang Hong was about to undertake was not a simple one, becoming a Tao-Certifying True Immortal was never an easy feat. All sorts of unexpected events could happen during the process, and dangers might be encountered, unknown to anyone.
But for Monarch Qingxu and the entire True Martial Sect, it was worth it, even if it meant paying a certain price, they believed it was acceptable.
“In that case, this disciple humbly accepts,” Pang Hong did not refuse in the least and readily agreed.
If before this visit, Pang Hong had not understood his master’s intentions, merely thinking it was an opportunity his master had arranged for him to seize and certify his Tao.
But when he actually arrived at the True Martial Sect and discussed this matter with Monarch Qingxu, he suddenly realized his master’s thoughts. Perhaps, aside from looking for an opportunity for him to certify the Tao, his master’s greater aim was to settle accounts.
After all, for his master, if it were not for this reason, with his strength and resources at hand, it was indeed possible to arrange an opportunity for him to certify the Tao; even if not plentiful, it would be enough, not necessarily needing to rely on the resources of the True Martial Sect.
The matter of being in debt is not only a burden on the debtor’s psyche, but it also places considerable pressure on the creditor.
Although for Pei Xuanjing, it wasn’t the benefits that he worried about, but rather the relationship with the True Martial Sect. After all, at the stage of cultivation Pei Xuanjing had reached, there were few individuals who could stand at his level and discuss the Dao with him, and Monarch Qingxu was indeed one of them.
If he truly let Monarch Qingxu and the True Martial Sect owe him more and more, to the point that one day it became a vassal of the Shenxiao Sect, the additional vassal would not bring much benefit to the Shenxiao Sect. Instead, it would mean that Pei Xuanjing would lose a Taoist friend, something he found not worthwhile.
Therefore, not only did Monarch Qingxu and his people realize this, not wishing to become a vassal of the Shenxiao Sect and wanting to maintain their independence, but when Pei Xuanjing was invited to descend upon this world, he also thought of it.
For this very reason, Pei Xuanjing chose to go with the flow and agreed, and then he sent his own disciple there in search of an opportunity for Tao certifying–it was also for the purpose of Tao certifying.
When Pang Hong accepted this task and went to that world, no matter what the outcome, it would act as a debt-clearing motion, helping to reduce some of the debts between the two parties and maintaining an equal relationship.
Thus, faced with the actions of Monarch Qingxu, Pang Hong did not have the slightest refusal. Even if Monarch Qingxu had not suggested it, he would have taken the initiative to propose it, requesting the other party to help him.
Indeed, when Monarch Qingxu heard Pang Hong’s acceptance of the task, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, for he was clear that Pang Hong understood his intentions.
It’s better to fight with a smart person than to speak a word with a fool, he thought to himself. The fact that Pang Hong could hold his current position was certainly extraordinary. Besides the support of Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing, it was absolutely inseparable from his own abilities.
