Although Emperor Jade and Great Emperor Ziwei suffered a dire defeat in this battle, their rise has become unstoppable. They are destined to reach the pinnacle of heaven and earth, becoming some of the few supreme manipulators of this cosmos.

There is no doubt about this.

So, what is the first thing these two Imperial Honors must do after their ascent?

Naturally, it is to gradually reclaim their Authority and expand it.

Although these two Imperial Honors are newly ascended Dao Lords, they are different from other newly ascended Dao Lords; they possess the original Heavenly Authority of the Divine Land World, even if it is just a tiny portion, which is fundamentally different.

Originally, when Pei Xuanjing and others were Enthroning Gods, in order to establish the Heavenly Court, it can be said that they smashed all the Spirit Realm Cave Heavens and Secret Realm Blessed Lands from various forces, merging them into the cosmos, transforming them into the Heavenly Court, granting the original owners of these Cave Heaven Blessed Lands some measure of the Heavenly Court's Authority.

This was the foundation upon which the Heavenly Court was established, the core of the many Gods who were enfeoffed. What distinctly separates them from the later Gods who received Divine Positions is this aspect; they are the original shareholders of the Heavenly Court, even though each individual only has an insignificant part, but this still marks a vast difference.

It is for this reason, there is another shackle binding Emperor Jade, preventing him from stripping these Gods of their Divine Positions, which gives these Gods sufficient confidence.

However, as Imperial Honors of the Heavenly Court, whether it be Emperor Jade or Great Emperor Ziwei, they both made significant contributions to the establishment of the Heavenly Court, making them also shareholders of the court, and even received favor from the cosmos, acquiring part of the Heavenly Authority.

Indeed, this Heavenly Authority is only partial, yet it acts as a qualifying entry ticket, which is why these veteran Dao Lords can only restrict their development, but cannot truly strip them of their revered status.

There was a time when they lacked sufficient power and could only watch their Authority being usurped; now with their own power, they naturally have the right to reclaim their Authority.

If not for today's great battle, these two Imperial Honors obtaining sudden strong powers might have directly taken drastic actions.

But with today's defeat, they have become wary and will naturally become more cautious; in such a situation, the first thing they must do is to reclaim the Authority within the Heavenly Court, and strengthen themselves as much as possible.

To secure the outside, one must first stabilize the inside; this is not a joke, but rather the correct sequence that needs to be considered in many situations.

Not to mention these two Imperial Honors, how they will handle the Authority between them and the two Imperial Honors Great Emperor Qinghua and Emperor Gouchen, and whether it will lead to conflicts.

But once Zi Wei and Emperor Jade join forces, the first thing they will do is gradually reclaim the Authority of various True Gods, Heavenly Venerates, Heavenly Kings, and Star Lords within the Heavenly Court.

No one would truly think that containing Emperor Jade relies solely on these four Imperial Honors including Great Emperor Ziwei, right?

The entire Heavenly Court is an extraordinarily massive organizational structure; only when all these Gods come together can they truly be called the Heavenly Court, and the operation of the Court is maintained collectively by them, thus also continuously distributing Authority among these Gods.

Once upon a time, the four Imperial Honors joined forces to check Emperor Jade, seizing some of his Authority, with other True Gods, Heavenly Venerates, Heavenly Kings, and Star Lords assisting on the side, effectively making Emperor Jade powerless.

But at the same time, those Gods under the command of these Imperial Honors were also securing Authority in their own ways, making these Imperial Honors powerless, otherwise why couldn't Great Emperor Zi Wei, as the Master of the Stars, govern all the Star Gods? If he could do this, he would not need the help of the other Imperial Honors to balance Emperor Jade alone.

But those Dao Lords and immortal sects would not want to see this happen, as the other party becoming powerful would threaten to break the balance just like another Emperor Jade.

Emperor Jade being checked by Imperial Honors, Gods checking the Imperial Honors, and behind these Gods are many immortal sects and supporters of the strong, this forms a relatively stable environment for the Heavenly Court.

Now Emperor Jade and others begin to seize their own Authority, not outward but inward, and the first thing they must do is integrate their Authority within the Heavenly Court, taking back their Authority from the hands of True Gods, Heavenly Venerates, Heavenly Kings, and Star Lords.

In such a situation, unless Fire Virtue Star Lord, who governs the Mars Star, is willing to give up his Authority, relinquish the ownership of this Ancient Star, he will inevitably come into conflict with Great Emperor Ziwei.

Moreover, his existence in the Heavenly Court is not just that, under the circumstances where the Divine Tao Incarnation of Longevity Taoist Monarch, the Emperor of Longevity does not manage, by leveraging the old connections from the time they together developed the world, he allied with the Five Elements Star Lords, Southern Dipper, and many other Star Gods, forming an extremely powerful force in the Heavenly Court. Although he does not have the name of an Imperial Honor, he has the reality of one.

There was a time when Emperor Jade and Great Emperor Ziwei, among others, vied for supremacy without the power to match; now that the opposition has come together, his presence becomes very conspicuous.

"The situation that Star Lord is in now is extremely perilous. With Star Lord's power, suppressing any of them shouldn't be an issue. But facing the combined force of Emperor Jade and Zi Wei, it won't be so easy, " said an incarnation of the Witch God Sect Leader that arrived at the Star Lord Temple of Fire Virtue Star Lord, speaking in a somber tone.

The arrival of this incarnation of the Witch God Sect Leader was quite sudden, without the slightest hint.
