The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 1609_2


Supreme Divine Power's unparalleled killing prowess is still built upon the Authority Laws they control for the Taoist Monarchs, and even the divine power skills that align with them are dependent on the Authority Laws.

Just like the Great Law Decree Technique and the Great Star Technique to the Jade Emperor and Great Emperor Ziwei, these two Supreme Divine Powers tend to compensate for any deficiencies in their own Authority Laws, further enhancing their Laws Authority rather than boosting their capability for slaughter.

Although these two Imperial Honors are of the Taoist Monarch level at the True Immortal Seventh Layer Heaven, compared to other Dao Lords, their own Authority Laws are actually not complete. If they wielded sufficient Authority Laws, with their Imperial stature, the combat power they would exhibit could perfectly rival many veteran Dao Lords.

The strength of a Taoist Monarch is determined not just by their own Realm, but also by how much and how well they wield their Authority Laws. If the Authority of the Jade Emperor and Great Emperor Ziwei weren't restricted, they wouldn't need to pursue the Great Law Decree Technique and Great Fate Technique, which would merely be icing on the cake for them.

This is why those powers and strong entities seek to suppress their acquisition of authority.

The Great Fate Technique is indeed powerful, but for Taoist Monarch Tianji, it is merely a tool; something useful if obtained, but not a loss if not. The same applies to other Dao Lords.

Therefore, this is also a reason why, after Pei Xuanjing declared that only True Immortal Strong should compete for the Great Fate Technique, many Dao Lords expressed tacit consent.

Apart from the fact that the majority of Dao Lords simply do not engage in the Path of Destiny, even those who touch upon similar Paths of the Great Tao have their own respective paths; acquiring it would only be an additional flourish for them.

It's not that accumulating more divine power skills is always better for all the strong; even those at the Taoist Monarch level may end up biting off more than they can chew, or worse.

If reaching the stage of a Tao-Certifying True Immortal is truly about setting their future trajectory, they must undergo a transformation on the Immortal Path that necessitates following this route. In truth, they still have choices before reaching the True Immortal Seventh Layer Heaven, it's just a matter of the cost involved.

For these powerful Dao Lords, so-called Masters of the Dao who control the Laws Authority—they have already touched upon the Original Source of Heaven and Earth, involving the very core of existence.

At this point, their foundation is completely set, integrated into their life's imprint, branded within their Essence, Qi, Spirit; even if a Dao Lord falls, these aspects do not disappear.

There are limits to human effort; even the powerful Dao Lords are no exception. The path each Dao Lord has forged can rightly be said to be unprecedented; each one independently exploring without reference.

Only when they have taken a Path of the Great Tao to its extreme would they consider involving another Laws Authority, and even then, the second set of Laws Authority should be similar and complementary for optimal effect.

After the story of Lord Sheng's cultivation of the Heaven, Earth, Human, God, Ghost Five Immortals circulated, and with Pei Xuanjing using it to establish his unparalleled position between heaven and earth, which Dao Lord would not covet such achievement, not recognising it as a Great Path to the Heavens?

However, not all Dao Lords actually follow this path, nor do all Dao Lords immediately opt to cultivate the Five Immortal Paths. Nowadays, among the many Dao Lords between heaven and earth, whether veteran or Newly Ascended Dao Lords, what they typically showcase is the mastery of three Immortal Paths to become a Dao Lord.

Is it that these Dao Lords don't wish to do so?

Not necessarily.

Besides the fact that cultivating all five Immortal Paths requires an astronomical amount of resources, which they find difficult to accept, it's also due to the time and effort needed, and the complexity of the Laws Authority involved.

There are countless Laws of Heaven and Earth, yet only so many are powerful. Each Dao Lord's path is unique and unparalleled. Once they venture onto the same path governed by a particular set of Laws, they either live in subordination or engage in an unyielding path contest.

Even for some particularly powerful Laws Authority, even Dao Lords cannot fully master them; what they cultivate is only part of the Authority Laws, a branch of that powerful Laws Authority.

Even with sufficient resources, just attempting to touch upon other Laws Authority presents its own significant difficulty.

This is the intrinsic difficulty Dao Lords face on their cultivation paths.

It is also a puzzle in the hearts of many Taoist Monarchs; they do not know what exactly are the Authority Laws of the Longevity Taoist Monarch that he truly cultivates, and how he manages to practice multiple paths without being affected.

This is a mystery that troubles the hearts of many Taoist Monarchs and cannot be unraveled, as well as the aspect they fear the most. The mysterious and unknown strength of the Longevity Taoist Monarch is something that no one knows.

They can only temporarily attribute it to him being a pioneer, although encountering countless problems, he also has more choices.

Certainly, some believe this is the reason why this Taoist Monarch severed his Five Immortals incarnations; the Authority he deals with is conflicting, impossible to merge, hence he severed the incarnations and only left the True Body.

Various reasons have led to the current situation, especially for some Taoist Monarchs who cultivate multiple paths, such as the known Sword Emperor and Profound Heaven True Monarch. Although they are Three Proofs True Immortals, all three paths are at the level of True Immortal Seventh Layer Heaven, which is a notch below some of the veteran Taoist Monarchs' levels.

Between the Extreme Path True Immortal Ninth Layer Heaven and the Profound Immortal Seventh Layer Heaven, it is uncertain who is stronger or whether True Immortal Ninth Layer Heaven is indeed better than Profound Immortal Seventh Layer Heaven.

However, in the eyes of some True Immortals, to first certify as an Extreme Path True Immortal, and then cultivate other Immortal Paths, is to be in a commanding position, which seems easier than exploring three paths at the same time.

Therefore, most of the Taoist Monarchs nowadays are extremely cautious and will not venture into other paths lightly to avoid hindering their own progress.

This is the reason why, after Pei Xuanjing expressed his stance, these Taoist Monarchs readily agreed, as there was no need to provoke this powerful existence over a superfluous matter.

"It seems they are all eager to try," Pei Xuanjing observed the expressions of the many True Immortals outside the Myriad Laws Realm and remarked indifferently.

"How could a supreme-level divine power not be tempting?" Yu Zhenzi said with divine light in his eyes and a leisurely tone.

If not for the fact that he had absolutely no connection to this Great Fate Technique, he too would be tempted.

There's no helping it, a supreme-level divine power might not mean much to a Daoist Monarch, but it is extremely tempting for a strong True Immortal of the Sixth Layer.

If one could obtain a supreme Divine Power that is compatible with oneself, then by using it to perfect the understanding of one's Authority Laws, perhaps one might break through shackles and reach the level of a Taoist Monarch, thus taking a shot to the sky, a temptation many strong beings would cherish.

Even though the Great Fate Technique might not be suitable for many of them, bringing it back for trade could definitely exchange for a supreme-level divine power.

Not to mention trading with the top Immortal Sects, simply using the platform of the Taoist Academy for the transaction, or even directly offering it to the Taoist Academy is feasible.

The reason Yu Zhenzi is not tempted, aside from the Great Fate Technique being incompatible, is also because he has already cultivated a supreme-level divine power.

Of course, his aptitude and understanding still fall short, and even though he has cultivated a supreme-level divine power, he has not used it to break through to the level of a Taoist Monarch.

But for him, there is also not much energy left to continue cultivating other supreme-level divine powers. If even a Taoist Monarch can bite off more than they can chew, what more for him?

With that energy and time, it would be better for him to delve into his own divine power, which might even increase his chances of breaking through to the Taoist Monarch level.

"If that's the case, then let's not delay any further. This round of the trial should come to an end, let these people enter the second round of the trial!" Pei Xuanjing said.

At this moment, the remaining number of participants in the Myriad Laws Realm had dwindled considerably, not even amounting to a hundred thousand. It was time for the first round of the Myriad Laws Realm trial to end.
