The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 998: Chapter 946-947 The Advantage of the Human Race, The Foundation of the Divine Position_2

After all, when there is an agreed-upon premise, what belongs to whom is clear, leaving no room for contention or dispute.

However, in the absence of clear agreements, once benefits emerge, parties will inevitably start competing, and many factors must be considered, such as one’s own power.

With the strength of the Demonic Way’s three True Immortals, they would find themselves at a disadvantage when competing for benefits against any powerhouse.

Therefore, among the True Immortals, those from the Demonic Path who usually act most unrestrained and domineering, have now become the staunchest supporters of rules.

Reality is such that, whether they be ordinary beings or True Immortals, when faced with interests, instinct drives them to choose the means most beneficial to themselves; for a Demonic Path True Immortal, when the rules are advantageous, it’s only natural to follow and uphold them.

This was the case for Blood Fiend Ancestor and the other two Demonic Path True Immortals, and even Daoist Xuantian, who proposed this idea, harbored similar thoughts.

According to the original agreement, the Godsealing Plan serves as a basis for the True Immortals and their backing forces to divide future benefits, but beyond this foundation, a vast expanse of interests remained unassigned.

As True Monarch Shenxiao Pei Xuanjing put it, the allocation of these interests in the future would depend on the efforts made by the True Immortals and their backers within the Godsealing Plan.

As the initiator, planner, and promoter of the Godsealing Plan, Pei Xuanjing had much to consider.

The power of these True Immortals cannot be overlooked; they are the pillars of the human race, and with their support, the will of the human race is assured, enabling the launch and progression of the Godsealing Plan. That’s why Pei Xuanjing is willing to share interests with them.

But while these individuals are the pillars, they are not the entirety of the human race. It is the far greater number of cultivators that form the foundation, an essential part of the human race’s strength, and an inseparable one at that.

If the human race were likened to a large ship sailing through the vast seas, then the multitude of True Immortals and their backing forces would be the captains, deciding the ship’s direction.

However, if this ship is to truly move and navigate the vast seas, it relies on the many cultivators of the human race, for they are the propulsion that determines how far and fast the ship can travel.

“Immortal sects may occupy a part of the benefits, yet they must not overlook the interests of all human race cultivators,” Pei Xuanjing said to each True Immortal at the time.

Considering the immense benefits that could arise from the Godsealing Plan, each True Immortal had a rough forecast in their hearts; they naturally understood how much of the interests would be shared as described by Pei Xuanjing.

When they raised this question, that was the answer Pei Xuanjing gave them.

Although these immortal sects are exalted and usually disregard ordinary cultivators, they had to admit their agreement with Pei Xuanjing’s statement, or perhaps it was because the speaker was True Monarch Shenxiao Pei Xuanjing – out of respect for True Immortals, they did not refute it.

Of course, part of the reason was that Pei Xuanjing informed the True Immortals that the interests he mentioned were merely the foundational share for each True Immortal. As the Godsealing Plan unfolds, they could use their own strength to seize another portion of the interests.

What Daoist Xuantian is suggesting now is whether they should agree upon a set of rules, one that everyone accepts, to act within.

“I request Master Tianji to mask the Heavenly Secrets,” said Pei Xuanjing, who had yet to respond to Daoist Xuantian or Blood Fiend Ancestor, instead asking Master Tianji to make the first move and conceal the Heavenly Secrets.

The matter of Enthroning Gods is of great importance and must not be leaked lightly. In the past, Pei Xuanjing himself would personally conceal the Heavenly Secrets during their conversations.

But now, with Master Tianji, who is more adept at divining Heavenly Secrets, present, Pei Xuanjing naturally prefers to save the trouble.

“Very well!” Master Tianji readily complied.

With a flick of his fingers and a gentle tap, the Heavenly Secrets surrounding the True Immortals were concealed.

“Now that the Heavenly Secrets have been disturbed by me, even if the powerful beings of the Demon Race join forces, they cannot spy on us. So, True Monarch, feel free to speak your mind,” Master Tianji said to Pei Xuanjing.

Perhaps he is not the most powerful among the many True Immortals in combat strength, but in the art of Heavenly Secrets, Master Tianji is likely the strongest entity between Heaven and Earth, confident in his own abilities.

Even the wise Heavenly Fragrance Fox King of the Demon Race would not be a match for Master Tianji in the art of Heavenly Secrets.

The many true immortals also turned their gaze toward Pei Xuanjing, waiting to hear what he had to say.

Pei Xuanjing nodded, looking around at everyone: “Colleagues, I’m sure you all know the purpose behind my promotion of the Godsealing Plan,” he said.

He continued, “The human race and the Demon Race have been in conflict. Although our human race has produced many geniuses, when compared to the Demon Race, our lifespan is extremely short. The Path of the True Immortal is exceedingly difficult, hence the method of Enthroning Gods can provide our elite humans with a way to longevity.”

“Taoist Friend, your great virtue is admirable,” they praised in unison.

Regardless of the school—an Immortal Path, a Demonic Way, or a Buddhism School—the true immortals all praised Pei Xuanjing.

No matter what angle or standpoint they held, they could still sense his broad-mindedness, and even as opponents, they could not help but offer their praises.

Pei Xuanjing spoke with a smile, “Regarding the Godsealing Plan, I have some ideas I’d like to share clumsily, and I ask you to enlighten me. In my view, once gods have been enthroned and the Human Race Heavenly Court is established, there should be six Imperial positions…”

He shared his plans and thoughts with everyone: The six Imperials as the main body, followed by three hundred and sixty-five True Gods, divided into eight departments.

“Which eight departments?”

“The upper four departments: Thunder, Fire, The Big Dipper, Pestilence; the lower four departments, Star Constellations, Three Mountains and Five Peaks, Mastering Rain and Cultivating Clouds, Gods of Good and Evil.”

“What will the foundation of divine positions and authority be?”

“To enthrone gods, naturally there must be a foundation for divine positions and authority—something to rely on. Otherwise, it’s like a tree without roots or water without a source.”

“…”

The true immortals each put forward their thoughts.

If they had never considered it before, then after Pei Xuanjing brought up the Godsealing Plan, naturally, the true immortals had spent time researching it. Although they couldn’t have a deep understanding in such a short time.

But as true immortals, understanding one law can shed light on myriad laws. With the realm of true immortals, they would naturally have learned the basics in this short time, gaining a certain understanding of the Divine Tao and knowing the foundations of divine positions and authority.

Excellent!” Pei Xuanjing nodded.

He articulated his thoughts: “Divine positions certainly require a foundation. Since this Heavenly Court is to govern the operations of Heaven and Earth, the divine positions must concern all things under Heaven and Earth.”

“With the Earth’s mountains and rivers, the heavens’ stars and moons, the changing of the Four Seasons and Five Orders, the signs of Wind, Thunder, Water, and Fire—taking a strand of their Qi and merging with it, one then becomes a part of the stars and moons, mountains and rivers, Four Seasons and Five Orders, Wind, Thunder, Water, and Fire. The divine positions are thus endlessly supplied, immortal and indestructible, coexisting with Heaven and Earth.”

As Pei Xuanjing spoke, even though Master Tianji had obscured the workings of fate, preventing other true immortals from spying, the Will of Heaven and Earth could not be hindered.

His words in harmony with Heaven and Earth carried the effect of promoting the evolution and operation of Heaven and Earth itself, naturally causing the resonance of Heaven and Earth, and suddenly made Heaven and Earth tremble.

In the Daming World, which had ascended, the void quaked, the stars and moon shone their radiance, and countless mountains and rivers quivered as if cheering and resonating in unison.

Where there are Heavens, there are Gods; the Gods and the Dao are one.

The Divine Tao follows rules, while the Immortal Path is detached and free.

Thus, compared to the untethered freedom of the Immortal Path, the Divine Tao is actually more in line with the operating principles of Heaven and Earth. Divine positions bestowed by the will of Heaven and Earth are meant to help the deities maintain the normal operation of Heaven and Earth.

Pei Xuanjing’s Godsealing Plan was his own idea but resonated with the will of the Heavenly Dao. The so-called Godsealing Plan was thus timely and appropriate for its emergence into the world.

“So, how should the divine positions be allocated?” a true immortal asked.
