The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 2093: Chapter 2038–2039: The Holy Sword Emerges, the Overlord Falls (Part 2)

In fact, the Red Emperor’s Holy Sword had always been in his hands, but as a holy sword of the Path of Humans, its purpose was to allow the wielder to defend the human race, not to use it for internal conflicts or to dominate among the humans.

Therefore, even though he wielded the Red Emperor’s Holy Sword, Red Flame Ancestor did not gain a significant advantage when he initially opened overseas, because this item was simply unusable. Original content can be found at novelꜰire.net

However, this time, when he decided to support the Five Divine Dynasties, he sensed some changes in the Red Emperor’s Holy Sword and discovered he could now wield it.

It was at this moment that Red Flame Ancestor confirmed one thing: his choice was not wrong, and his actions were approved by the Emperor Monarch, or else he would not have been able to wield the Red Emperor’s Holy Sword.

This is the disparity in information; he received the Emperor Monarch’s acknowledgment, while the deeds of King Chenyu defied the Emperor Monarch’s will and violated the Emperor’s plans, hence deserved execution!

A supreme overlord of five-star strength of the human race, the emperor of an overseas empire, King Chenyu fell. It was the first time in over a thousand years that an overseas supreme overlord had fallen, but it would definitely not be the last.

“Cui Lan, you have defied the Emperor Monarch’s will, and you will surely suffer great calamities!” With his gaze shifting, holding the holy sword, Red Flame Ancestor’s eyes were filled with confidence. Stepping forward, he descended before Divine Lord Cui Lan, and the holy sword in his hand slashed down with unstoppable might.

……

The endless army, riding ancient war chariots, moved above the sea; these were the war chariots driven by the Fire Emperor of yore, sweeping across the Divine Land World, waging war against the Demon Race. The powerful war chariots were surrounded by terrifying divine fire, now once again showing their might, as if returning to that era when the Ancient Shared Lord ruled the heavens, and all tribes submitted.

A chariot pulled by several fire-attributed demonic beasts roamed the sky, standing amidst the army, its immortal glow flickering, with strands of fiery flames that could turn all into nothingness.

Seated alone in the ancient chariot, the Fire Emperor saw before him a divine map of the sea, with floating divine islands scattered in star clusters, centered around a largest divine island, whose light enveloped a vast expanse.

“Only by pacifying the upheaval in the sea can we truly lay down roots. Though the sea region has been uniquely blessed over the years, it also comes with natural limitations, even shackles. The stronger the creatures born in a given world, the rarer their numbers. If a mere small world could nurture many strong beings, why would the Taoist Monarchs need to expand the Realms of Heavenly Seas to ascend to the Divine Continent?” mused the Fire Emperor while gazing upon the divine map, pondering some matters.

“The sea’s heaven and earth, refined by human True Immortals and even Taoist Monarchs, is naturally not ordinary, yet it still cannot escape its innate shackles. Over the endless ages, many supreme strong beings have accumulated, even some supreme overlords, standing with one foot in the realm of True Immortals, but after truly ascending to True Immortals, they all leave.”

Within the Divine Land World, with the fusion of countless worlds, many secret realms were born, even small worlds, nurturing various exotic lives. Some special lives, inherently powerful, have never produced a race that could replace the human race, because their extraordinary gifts assure their own flaws.

Born in the Divine Land World, the strong beings have their innate origins connected to heaven and earth, with boundless potential if they truly mature, even having a chance to reach some peak realms. However, strong beings born in some secret realms may possess various innate divine abilities, even born with strength at the Divine Realm, but for them to progress further is much more difficult, even impossible.

These islands in the sea can be considered Cave Heaven Blessed Lands, or even semi-finished Small Thousand Worlds, inherently flawed. Before ascending to True Immortals, they can be used for cultivation, but after truly ascending to True Immortals, they simply cannot support further cultivation, remaining there would only be burdensome, also affecting the overseas region.

Thus, there is not a single true True Immortal strong in the sea region, at least among the Five Emperors’ descendants, no True Immortal remains there. The Fire Emperor fell into contemplation, pondering the myriad celestial secrets collected by the strong of the five Divine Dynasties over the ages.

Of course, he knows that though overseas Five Emperors’ descendants have no true Immortal Path strong, it doesn’t mean there aren’t strong beings comparable to True Immortals among them.

There is even a terrifying being among them, truly a heaven-defying strong being, who once stirred up endless commotion on the Five Directions Continent of the Divine Land World, waging wars against heaven and earth, before vanishing without a trace.

But the Fire Emperor knows such a being surely hasn’t perished, nine out of ten is cultivating in the sea region, and now when leading an expedition, that strong being’s attitude may greatly influence this conquest.

Thinking of this, the Fire Emperor couldn’t help murmuring the person’s name.

“Undying Flame King!”

The Undying Flame King of yesteryears, who stepped into the Divine Land World from the sea region, possessed exotic treasures, fought across heaven and earth, raising endless waves, even finally attracting encirclement by the strong. In that battle, numerous supreme strong fell, and ultimately the Undying Flame King escaped and was never seen again.

It is rumored that the Undying Flame King cultivated a uniquely bizarre Taoist Skill, long reached the five-star Battle Power Strongest Realm, filling his own flaws, even truly reversing and cutting the Tao, severing himself to leave a perfect version of himself, a terrifying supreme strong being.

He merged himself with the flame, intertwined with it, as long as the flame is undying, so too is he. Though he has not certified True Immortal, his combat power can match ordinary True Immortals.

“The ancestor once said the Undying Flame King is also a predecessor of the Red Emperor Lineage, but no one knows what he really thinks!” The Fire Emperor’s expression varied as he looked towards the sea’s direction, also without complete assurance.

Though it’s said the Undying Flame King belongs to the Red Emperor Lineage, one cannot guarantee he would stand on their side. Ultimately, this matter at hand is an internal dispute among the Five Emperors’ descendants, and how the predecessors view and which side they support, is unclear to anyone.

After all, when the Five Emperors’ descendants first established the overseas lineage, it was hoped that they, as part of the same lineage, could watch over each other and support one another in the future.

But now, as they truly grew and flourished, mutual support has not occurred, and instead, due to conflicts of interest, a major clash seems imminent.

So even though many strong are accompanying this expedition, the Fire Emperor is somewhat uneasy, knowing that if a being comparable to True Immortals intervenes, it might trigger a series of repercussions.

Within the five Divine Dynasties, such strong beings at the True Immortal level are extremely rare, and none of them are not of a high imperial status. Even though they are esteemed as Divine Dynasty Lords, they do not have the right to command them.

Moreover, the Undying Flame King is no ordinary True Immortal, as a supreme overlord with True Immortal battle power, even should he participate, it would still be a battle below the True Immortal level, and some True Immortals would have no reason to intervene.

After all, everyone knows the Undying Flame King’s formidable power, ordinary True Immortal of First and Second Heavenly Realms have no assurance of victory, and True Immortals above the Third Heaven hold their status too high to partake.

“And at this moment, with the Great Ming Divine Dynasty eyeing covetously, prematurely exposing their strength would inevitably bring numerous complications to the final conquest,” the Fire Emperor inwardly shook his head, dismissing the idea.

Not to mention whether they could summon strong beings, he does not agree for the five Divine Dynasties to take forceful actions now, pacifying the sea region requires leveraging the general trend and appeasing many strong beings, rather than adopting slaughter.

In essence, all are descendants of the Five Emperors. The internal conflict solutions are essential, but it cannot truly lead to mutual destruction or even self-ruin, which is a mutually destructive approach.
