Chapter 1855 - 1800– - 1801: Chaotic Situation, When to Tao Certifying_2Chapter 1855: Chapter 1800–Chapter 1801: Chaotic Situation, When to Tao Certifying_2
The situation they face next will certainly not be easy at all; at least the competitors and opponents within the Taoist School will undoubtedly launch a frantic counterattack, trying to seize this opportunity to bring them down.
And just as the Five Old Lords and others were deliberating on their next moves, various forces also began to perform different deductions regarding this incident.
This time, the conflict seems to be merely a contest among a few True Immortal Sixth Layer experts, even if True Monarch Bai Qicang and Zhu Jiuyin Ancestor Witch clashed, but in the end, there were no Daoist Monarch-level experts intervening personally.
So when it comes down to it, this conflict’s level cannot compare to those Daoist Monarchs battling in the Chaos Void, nor to the True Immortals contending within the Myriad Laws Realm, after all, there wasn’t even a fallen True Immortal here, whereas in the Myriad Laws Realm, the fall and reincarnation of True Immortals have become almost commonplace.
However, this conflict holds profoundly significant meaning, and its impact far exceeds others.
If we say the clash between Emperor Jade and Taoist Monarch Tianji, the confrontation between these Daoist Monarch experts, is Emperor Jade challenging veteran Daoist Monarchs, unraveling the prelude to the chaos, yet the true turmoil affecting numerous True Immortals and cultivators had a period of dormancy.
Then this battle between the Five Old Lords and Ju Mang Ancestor Witch, Wood Virtue Star Lord, truly sounded the clarion call of a chaotic era, something that even the fall of True Immortals within the Myriad Laws Realm cannot compare to.
The Myriad Laws Realm, after all, is a trial field created by a Longevity Taoist Monarch, given to True Immortals from various parties to fight and compete for divine power skills. It is a deliberately created land of chaos, but still bound by rules, within the allowance of Daoist Monarchs.
But Qingling Primordial Lord’s attack on Wood Virtue Star Lord is clear and covert strife within the Taoist School, also breaking the gods’ tacit agreement within the Heavenly Court, overtly putting the struggle for the Gods’ authority in the open.
What you do on the first day of the lunar month, I will do on the fifteenth day.
In the past, everyone had to do these things in private; even if there were deep-seated resentments wishing to suppress the opponent, the rules had to be adhered to openly, whereas the Heavenly Court’s heavenly rules were still rather binding, making one dare not blatantly defy them.
But this time Qingling Primordial Lord’s actions ripped open the original facade, removing the constraints originally placed on those strong individuals whose hearts were already stirring, making them start plotting some schemes.
As long as Qing Laojun’s punishment this time isn’t too severe, then regardless of the final outcome, it will undoubtedly cause some of the strong to imitate and learn, leaving no room for doubt. Therefore, this is the true reason why this affair is so immensely influential.
Destruction has always been easier than construction; the current stable situation of the Divine Continent is the joint effort of Pei Xuanjing along with many Daoist Monarchs and various forces, during which a lot of compromises were made by all parties.
Even if friction among the strong forces emerges, it is contained within limits, mostly resolved outside the Divine Continent, being a situation of not publicizing nor investigating.
Now Qinglao Jun’s approach has utterly put this matter in the public eye, inevitably causing a series of impacts and breaking the original rules.
“It seems that the situation in the Divine Continent is about to get chaotic,” Bai Qicang said faintly.
Even though this affair is temporarily over, he knows better that it is just a temporary stop; this event is not the end, but merely the beginning.
“When has the world’s situation ever truly been peaceful?” Pang Hong, sitting opposite, said indifferently.
Bai Qicang may have been in seclusion for too long, or maybe he simply doesn’t care about these things on a day-to-day basis, or perhaps his power and position are so high that no one usually dares show him any disrespect.
But Pang Hong, as the Sect Leader of the Shenxiao Sect, is well versed in everything in this world, naturally aware that the world has never truly been as peaceful as it seems on the surface.
Over these ten thousand years, the Divine Continent has developed very rapidly, with countless strong ones emerging, each competing freely in the frost of the sky, showcasing a vibrant era of cultivation.
But even in the most resplendent eras, not all places can be illuminated by sunshine, and darkness still lurks behind the scenes.
Killing and strife are the true face of the cultivation world, this aspect has never ceased.
Whether it is the struggle between cultivators or the conflicts and clashes between various religious sects and forces, it has always existed, just not openly displayed.
“Haha, true,” Bai Qicang slightly stunned, chuckled softly, and nodded.
After all, he is also a strong person who rose from the bottom; as a disciple of Ancestor Celestial Master, when he joined Ancestor Celestial Master, although Dragon Tiger Mountain was powerful, it was not truly invincible.
During the rise of Dragon Tiger Mountain, Bai Qicang also slew countless opponents, annihilated numerous enemies.
And let’s not forget after falling out with Ancestor Celestial Master, he left Dragon Tiger Mountain and wandered outside for thousands of years, truly witnessing the myriad facets of the cultivation world during this period.
Only the power, the world’s level, has increased, but human nature has never changed because human nature is always insatiable, and struggle has always existed.
“I wonder what Daoist Brother plans to do next?” Pang Hong asked.
For him, the current affair can be said to have been passed over, and there is no point in paying attention further.
No matter how the Five Old Lords act next, nor what punishment they may receive, it has nothing to do with Pang Hong, he cannot even show any attitude regarding it.
Within the Taoist School, the Shenxiao Sect’s stance is very peculiar, holding great power yet being a latecomer; many times, his words represent his master’s will, at least in the eyes of some people and forces.
This time, regarding this matter, his master allowed him to get involved but did not tell him more detailed plans, so Pang Hong himself also holds an elusive attitude, all the more unable to take a stance at this moment.
The position of the Five Old Lords within the Taoist School is extremely important, more significant than many outsiders believe, and correspondingly, this position has also been coveted by many, always having strong individuals seeking to vie for it.
Now that the Five Old Lords have encountered this issue, someone will surely want to use it to drag the Five Old Lords down.
Such conflicts and disputes naturally do not interest Pang Hong in getting involved, nor does he have any desire for the position of the Five Old Lords.
But his own position destined that not only himself, but many people connected behind him are involved, and many people want to take this opportunity to drag them down or rely on the influence of the Shenxiao Sect, even his master’s influence.
Pang Hong neither wants to protect the Five Old Lords, as they believe the other party’s actions this time were reckless and violated rules, deserving punishment, but he also does not want others to utilize the Shenxiao Sect and his stance to use it as an excuse to bring down the Five Old Lords.
Thus, for him, remaining silent should be the best choice at this juncture.
“When are you planning to certify as a Taoist Monarch, Daoist Brother?” Pang Hong changed the subject, asking Bai Qicang.
This is an important question, for Pang Hong, even though he and Bai Qicang aren’t significantly close, he still asked.
Daoist Monarchs are the chessmasters, the beings standing at the pinnacle; even though there are differences in strength among Daoist Monarchs, they belong to a completely different tier compared to those beneath them.
And the advent of a Daoist Monarch is extremely paramount for any force; regardless of how deep-seated or potential a large immortal sect is, as long as no Daoist Monarch emerges, it cannot step into the ranks of the top immortal sects.
From the standpoint of the Taoist School, Bai Qicang certifying as a True Monarch is an enormous enhancement of their sect’s power.
From the perspective of the Shenxiao Sect, since they currently have close ties with Dragon Tiger Mountain, being considered half an ally, having a Daoist Monarch emerge in the upcoming landscape also strengthens their own power.
