The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 2270: Chapter 2216–2217: Path of Human and God – Three Emperors’ Imperial Coercion

The current era sees the coexistence of the Realms of Heavenly Seas, which appears as All Tribes living together, but all strong factions know that this is actually an era dominated by the human race.

The human race is the most powerful faction of this era, and only the strong within the human race can inherit the Qi Luck of Heaven and Earth, qualified to ascend to the highest position.

Fortunately, the human race is not simply a bloodline, but also a concept. As long as one accepts the ideology of the human race, they can be embraced as part of the human race.

It can be said that the Heavenly Court is the Heavenly Court of the human race, the Divine Continent is the Divine Continent of the human race, and these deities are mostly born from the human race or Innate Gods.

Even the Buddhism School does not dare deny its connection with the human race and must recognize the concept of the human race, unwilling to sever ties.

It can be said that the majority of Taoist Monarchs, True Immortals, Supreme Strong, belong to the human race. This is the true flourishing age of the human race, an unprecedented era.

It means that everyone’s interests are based on the existence of the human race.

The Jade Emperor wants to transform the human race into Human Gods, aligning with his interests and partially those of other strong factions, but it does not align with everyone’s interests.

The current structure of Heaven and Earth has essentially been set. Regardless of who the strongest is, the foundation is the human race, unless someone truly transcends racial boundaries and undergoes new transformation. Otherwise, positions will not change.

As for whether someone truly reaches that step of transcendence, such a powerhouse cannot be stopped by current forces; pondering this is meaningless.

For many strong factions now, originating from the human race and standing with the human race, even if unable to reach the peak, as long as the strongest entity is the human race, their foundation will not be affected and will be enhanced by the Qi Luck of the human race, thus cultivation remains unhindered.

However, the Jade Emperor’s current approach aims to transform the human race towards Human Gods, forming a new race that might be stronger. But, as the creator and guide of this race, undoubtedly, the Jade Emperor would possess the greatest advantage, forcing everyone else to follow his lead.

Even for some who are originally at the peak, they might be influenced by the Jade Emperor, which is something they cannot accept.

The human race is already powerful enough. The oldest existences of the human race are no longer here, so even if the Human Race Five Emperors returned to this era, they couldn’t truly control the human race.

This is the best era for many strong factions.

But the approach of the Jade Emperor might bring benefits, yet requires submission to him, which is rejected by all strong factions.

Transformation might be beneficial, yet if transformation does not yield the greatest benefits for oneself, and even brings influence, it is better not to start such transformation.

This is the thought of most strong factions, especially as they already possess enormous interests which they cannot accept sacrificing to fulfill others.

This is the most irreconcilable point between the Jade Emperor and many strong factions.

With the recent confrontation between the Jade Emperor and the Red Emperor, although defeating the Red Emperor and probing his cards, it also exposed the Jade Emperor’s cards and ambitions, leading many strong factions to quietly regard the Jade Emperor as an opponent.

These strong factions might not target the Jade Emperor in other matters, but if he continues to push the Divine Martial Dao to transform the human race, he will undoubtedly face even stronger obstruction.

As the confrontation between the Jade Emperor and the Red Emperor concluded, it signified the temporary halt of the battles within the Divine Land World, or the ceasefire between the Fire Divine Dynasty and the Great Ming Divine Dynasty.

Though Dayan True Monarch and the Great Instructor engaged in a duel which saw the Great Instructor breaking the array and emerging victorious, leading Duke Wei’s army to retreat three thousand miles without pressing the attack further.

However, the confrontation between the Jade Emperor and the Red Emperor resulted in victory for the Jade Emperor, making the Fire Divine Dynasty unable to continue its attack, leaving it to hold position and await.

This results in a temporary stalemate where neither side gains much advantage, with the Jade Emperor and Red Emperor having revealed their various cards.

This offers both sides a period of peaceful truce, during which they can have more time to undertake various endeavors.

For the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, their current stagnation is due to battles on all fronts, tying up too much of their efforts, unable to concentrate their forces, thus being contained.

Now with the temporary truce with the Fire Divine Dynasty, they can fully redirect this portion of forces to open up other fronts, so that when the truce ends, they’ll have more forces available.

Of course, for the Fire Divine Dynasty, it’s the same scenario. Although they’ve temporarily resolved the overseas Ancient Clan unrest, to truly integrate the overseas Ancient Clan’s power for their use, it also requires considerable time.

The priority was initially supposed to be this task. However, due to the aggressive actions of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, not stopping them immediately to block, letting them continue to grow, even after integrating their own strength, they would still be at a disadvantage.

Having now thwarted the Great Ming Divine Dynasty’s offensive, they can also continue to integrate their own internal forces.

Regardless, the recent confrontations are both beneficial and detrimental for both sides; neither can claim great advantage nor feel disadvantaged.
