The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 2221: Chapter 2166–2167: Ancestors Bore All the Hardships (2)

“The contributions of your ancestors, we do not deny or overlook. Their merits are their merits, but they do not serve as a reason for you to rest on your laurels and waste away,” a strong voice coldly reprimanded.

“It is precisely for this reason that the current calamity arose, enabling a true transformation of the world, providing fairness and a path for all living beings.”

For some powerful figures, part of the reason lies in their own development being hindered, making it difficult for them to advance further.

However, it cannot be denied that they also have grand ambitions, wanting the world to become better, hoping for more people to gain fairness and opportunities to go further.

People have a hundred ways, the minds of all beings are complex, everyone is versatile, not simply distinguishable by good or evil, pure or impure.

Thus, some who appear to be doing evil may bring about beneficial impacts on all beings and the world. Conversely, some who seem righteous may ultimately cause negative effects through their well-intentioned actions.

These strong individuals undeniably have ambition, but if they can indeed break the monopoly of the top immortal sects, they could also bring about extremely beneficial impacts.

After these words were spoken, the True Immortals, who previously claimed that their ancestors consumed all the hardships, suddenly fell silent.

After all, as True Immortals reaching their current Realm, even if they claimed that their ancestors ate all the hardships and they were merely along for the ride,

these are but words. To cultivate and reach this point, not only the True Immortal Sixth Layer Heaven but even purely at the True Immortal level, it’s not something that could be achieved by merely relying on resources.

The benefits they previously mentioned were just rhetoric, as in true cultivation, who doesn’t work hard, who doesn’t take it seriously?

While dismissive words of jealousy could be easily retorted, these kinds of words cannot be dismissed so easily.

Every strong person has their own steadfastness and beliefs. Regarding some matters of right or wrong, they actually have their own judgments. They may not respect these judgments, but they cannot easily dismiss them.

With this conversation, the True Immortals observing suddenly fell silent, each silent, no longer speaking, even the original quarrels ceased.

This is the most irreconcilable contradiction and the sharpest issue among the many factions today, fundamentally difficult to resolve.

To the old forces, they feel that they contributed significantly to the world’s development back then, so their current status and possessions are well-deserved.

The challenges from newcomers are seen as disrespect to them, denying their contributions.

However, for the newly rising strong individuals and forces, they do not deny their desire for more power, nor do they deny the past contributions of others.

“But the past contributions have already earned you your dues, it doesn’t mean you can occupy and own them forever.”

“Since we are all part of the world, we should have the qualification to share in these things. It’s too greedy if you always occupy and refuse to let go.”

This is the unresolvable contradiction between the two sides, ultimately it comes down to strength.

Only the strong can enforce their will and promote their ideas.

The whispers of the strong resonate deeply, while the cries of the weak go unheard, this is the world’s cruelty.

All paths, all intentions, still require ample power to promote.

Verbal disputes carry no meaning, or rather, over the years, no matter how many rounds are shown, the will of the strong is unwavering and cannot be easily persuaded. Ultimately it boils down to strength determining the outcome.

Thus, when the topic inadvertently arrives here, it suddenly stops, no further argument continues.

All words have been spoken, since verbal critique is useless, use strength to judge the opponent.

Everyone’s gaze returns once again, continuing to focus on the contest between the Dayan True Monarch and the Great Instructor.

Logically, even if the Great Instructor, possessing the Righteous Shadowless Great Divine Power, is trapped in the Eight Trigrams Divine Array, he is actually in an undefeated position.

However, the initial agreement was to gamble on breaking the array, not just simply escaping, but genuinely deciphering the array.

“Righteous Shadowless Great Divine Power!” Dayan True Monarch observed the Great Instructor deploying the Heavenly Gang Great Divine Power, a gleam in his eyes, thinking it was indeed so.

Although he verbally dismissed it, somewhat underestimating the opponent, as such a strong individual, he could not truly underestimate his opponent.

If he had, he would not have reached his current heights.

Moreover, the Taoist Academy, established and promoted by that Taoist Monarch, is now a renowned entity in the world, attracting countless strong individuals to it, naturally it has its appeal.

Therefore, the Great Instructor, originating from the Taoist Academy, holding a High-ranking position, possessing numerous top-tier divine powers is not surprising, but seen as expected.

The emergence of the Righteous Shadowless Great Divine Power immediately validated his thoughts; the opponent possessing this Great Divine Power is almost certainly in an advantageous position.

However, though the opponent possesses these Divine Abilities, which allow evasion of many attacks, it does not mean the array can be easily broken; these are entirely different matters.

While this Eight Trigrams Divine Array is not the most powerful of the formations mastered, it is top-tier, especially given the mutual linking of the Eight Directions Array, eroding each other’s strength, presenting flaws openly as an open scheme.

Thus, today’s contest showcasing this God formation is partly to demonstrate strength and deter others, as well as to offer some verification.

No matter how, this Eight Trigrams Divine Array was created by him, and although some strong individuals were invited previously to attempt breaking it, none were like the Great Instructor.

Hence, to see if the opponent can truly break the array, whether sheer strength and divine power can find flaws and compensations in the array.

For a strong individual like Dayan True Monarch, his every action is meaningful, never without purpose.

Even though it seemed like he acted due to anger about his disciple being suppressed, no one believed that he acted without any foresight.

“Eight Trigrams Divine Array, interlinked, cannot be broken by brute force, at least not with my strength; even if I manage to break a few arrays, the remaining Great Formation is absolutely impossible to decode,” the Great Instructor contemplated the approach to breaking the array.

Admittedly, the Righteous Shadowless Great Divine Power has been a significant aid, allowing him to walk leisurely amidst the array, avoiding attacks, providing extra time and energy to think about breaking the array.

This Eight Trigrams Divine Array is not his first encounter; his interest piqued during previous attempts to break it by others at the Taoist Academy.

Initially, he eliminated the idea of brute force breaking, which was his earliest thought, being inside the array further solidified this conclusion.

His power could break several formations, yet attempting complete brute force breaking was infeasible, particularly if the opponent Dayan True Monarch made no move.

The most feasible course is to isolate the eight formations within the Eight Trigrams Divine Array, dismantle their connections, and individually conquer them, the optimal solution.
