The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 2079: Chapter 1224–1225: The Creation God’s Cauldron – Considerations from All Sides (Part 2)

The Ten Thousand Spirits Demon Monarch, although called a demon monarch, is described as such based on his conduct. His skill’s origin is actually both righteous and evil, and this veteran Daoist Monarch even practices simultaneous cultivation of the Dao and the Demonic Way.

This low-profile veteran Daoist Monarch, it’s unknown when he forged two divine bodies of the Taoist Monarch: the Taoist Body and the Demon Body, each incredibly formidable.

Regarding Pei Xuanjing’s actions of reforging the Gods Sealing List, this veteran Daoist Monarch did not interfere at all because he understood that his own cultivation path is both righteous and evil, leaning more towards the Demonic Way. Without any conflict of interest, the Daoist Monarchs of the Taoist School wouldn’t bother him, but interfering in this matter would inevitably provoke opposition from strong figures of the Taoist School.

It’s crucial to realize that even Ancestor Celestial Master has not taken any action, and the Blood Fiend Ancestor in the Sea of Blood remains so still like he’s dead. Such pure demonic magnates haven’t made a move, so why rush?

However, sitting back and watching the refinements of the Gods Sealing List is one thing, allowing Pei Xuanjing to wield such authority and suppress everyone is another.

Currently, the Longevity Taoist Monarch’s dominance is somewhat terrifying. Although they are both veteran Daoist Monarchs, their interests are not aligned. Moreover, the other side has gathered allies, and if they become too dominant it’s certainly not favorable for him.

“Perhaps, the old demon’s idea might be worth considering?” the Ten Thousand Spirits Demon Monarch couldn’t help but recall the proposal made by the Blood Fiend Ancestor not long ago.

“A full-scale war is finally about to begin! Back then, even I fell behind, despite also being a veteran Daoist Monarch, yet I was at the bottom—a situation that’s absolutely unacceptable. Especially with the grievances between me and Xuantian, I will never let it go! No matter what, Xuantian must pay the price, or it will become a fixation in my heart, forever preventing me from advancing further!” Within the Profound Yin Divine Mountain, the Lord Profound Yin cast his gaze towards the Chaos Void, looking at Taoist Monarch Xuantian with a face full of hatred. This hatred is engraved in his bones, and even after thousands of years, he can’t erase it.

If it weren’t for Taoist Monarch Xuantian’s schemes back then, he wouldn’t have fallen to the bottom among veteran Daoist Monarchs. During the Conferred God War, he and Xuantian had a tacit alliance, intending to team up against the Rabbit Demon God, only for Xuantian to sit back, leaving him trapped.

Now, regardless of whether it’s Wanling Old Demon or Wuyou the Old Monk from Buddhism School, they have all surpassed him, fueling his bitterness even more.

Wanling Old Demon smuggles between the Taoist School and the Demonic Way, and Wuyou the Old Monk relies on the support of Buddhism School. Their paths, in hindsight, have far more luck than his, having faced no calamity and even possessing opportunities for advancement to stronger realms.

Even though he plundered a lot of resources while exploring the All Heavens, compensating for his foundational losses, it still cost the Lord Profound Yin a substantial amount of his origin. Perhaps his current realm might be his eternal realm, forever finding it difficult to truly take another step forward.

For such a formidable being, this is unacceptable. Back then, he was among the first batch to achieve True Immortal status, holding a mid-upper existence among veteran Daoist Monarchs, yet now he can’t even compare to the likes of the vacillating Wanling Old Demon.

The challenges Lord Profound Yin faces are not this alone. It wouldn’t matter much to lose an edge among veteran Daoist Monarchs, but the provocations from new Daoist Monarchs are a greater threat.

“Junior brother, we must also hasten our steps. Once the various factions fall, our Buddhism School will have to face that person’s might. If we hope to truly expand our Buddhism School, we must withstand such oppression and even advance further.” The Worry-free Bodhisattva looked bitter as he gazed at the Gods Sealing List floating in the void, easily blocking the Sword Emperor’s attack and reminding him of the immense power demonstrated by the Longevity Taoist Monarch back in the old days.

One must not believe that Buddhism School willingly conceded the immense benefits of the Heavenly Court back then. It wasn’t a harmonious retreat but involved real battles behind the scenes, unknown to many.

After all, Buddhism School didn’t want to bring up such disgraceful events, and the victors didn’t wish to seem overly domineering, so very few knew.

But outsiders may not know; as someone who personally experienced it, Worry-free Bodhisattva cannot forget. If it wasn’t for the truly unmatched, forceful dominance of the Longevity Taoist Monarch, the Buddhism School wouldn’t have given up the massive interests of the Heavenly Court so easily.

Beside him, the Universal Light Bodhisattva shared a heavy-hearted look, unlike the newly ascended Mahasthamaprapta, who had not truly witnessed Pei Xuanjing’s terrors, genuinely making him unaware and fearless.

This time, the Buddhism School’s alliance with the Jade Emperor against the Heterodox Alliance resulted in a reverse strike from the opponent, causing significant losses to the Buddhism School. The Buddhism School tolerated it not because of concerns about the Heterodox Alliance’s rabble, but because they weren’t worried about an injured Zhao Baiyang—not even a fully powerful Zhao Baiyang mattered to them.

Their considerations were about the implications behind it. The support for the Heterodox Alliance came from the Shenxiao Sect. It was concerns about the Shenxiao Sect’s or the Longevity Taoist Monarch’s plot that made them afraid to act rashly.

Otherwise, even if it were Zhao Baiyang and two Demon Monarchs, plus Lord Divine Skill Miaoji, these three newly ascended Dao Lords from the Taoist School were no threat to the Buddhism School.

“The Gods Sealing List, a heavenly and earthly treasure! Truly worthy of being the Longevity, even I, the ancestor, find myself inferior.” At the boundary between the Nether Yin Department and the mortal realm, within the Sea of Blood, the figure of the Blood Fiend Ancestor flickered.

Within the Demonic Way, although the most fragmented and internally conflicted, there’s nonetheless a loose structure among the top strong figures, with the Blood Fiend Ancestor subtly being a leading figure.

This demonic magnate has essentially watched Pei Xuanjing grow into a formidable being, surpassing himself step by step, filling the Blood Fiend Ancestor with mixed emotions.

But he also understood that he owes a debt of gratitude to Pei Xuanjing, as the development of the Sea of Blood within the Nether Yin Department allowed him to establish a dominion of his own. This is a favor he must acknowledge, even if Pei Xuanjing never mentions it.

The Sea of Blood is, by extension, a part of heaven and earth. As it continuously merges with the Nether Yin Department, any harm to it would be tantamount to damaging the Divine Land World, providing the Blood Fiend Ancestor with significant leverage.

He dared oppose those from the Buddhism School, disregard the Witch Deity Teaching, precisely for this reason. Even if he fell and perished, the existence of the Sea of Blood meant he could rise again, defying heaven. Isn’t this another form of immortality and indestructibility?

Therefore, despite the terrifying allure of the Gods Sealing List manifesting in the Chaos Void, this demonic magnate never had the thought to interfere, remaining an observer. Otherwise, with his power, he truly had the qualification to intervene.

Even amidst the battles of several veteran Daoist Monarchs in the Chaos Void now, the Blood Fiend Ancestor is completely qualified to stir the winds and clouds—it’s no exaggeration. The name of the Blood Fiend Ancestor, a demonic magnate, is never uttered in vain.

But, as a person in the Demonic Way, although his actions are unscrupulous, violating all taboos, it doesn’t mean he lacks discernment or is heartless.

Considering sentimentality meant he couldn’t involve himself in the struggle over the Gods Sealing List, but that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t do anything, after all, he is a magnate of the Demonic Way. One way or another, he needed to plot some strategies for the Demonic Way.

As a member of the Demonic Way, the prosperity and strength of the Demonic Way naturally confer advantages upon him. If the Demonic Way declines to the point of being bullied by everyone, he would be all alone, leading to a miserable future.

Quietly watching the changes in the Divine Continent, the Blood Fiend Ancestor felt a deep sense of emotion. He knew that no matter what, he had to leave a mark in the Divine Land World to gain the recognition of heaven and earth.

Therefore, figuring out how he should proceed most advantageously is a matter that also requires careful consideration for the Blood Fiend Ancestor.
