Chapter 1090: Chapter 1038-1039 Life Simulation – Dual Cultivation of Tao and Martial Arts_2 Chapter 1090: Chapter 1038-1039 Life Simulation – Dual Cultivation of Tao and Martial Arts_2 Taoist Skill, such supre techniques of slaughter and those Divine Weapons are the things that determine the power level of a True Immortal Leader.

The so-called “The Dao can be taught, but techniques must not be passed on lightly” is precisely this.

Powerhouses who tread the sa Dao path evolve their mastery of Laws into controlling Taoist Skills, as supre techniques of slaughter, using these to determine their rankings and strengths.

In Da Xing City, although the stories about Shen Xiao True Monarch continued to spread, at this mont, nobody dared to visit him rashly or seek an audience.

Pei Xuanjing’s rising fa not only did not hinder the struggle for succession among the princes of the Da Ye Dynasty, but it further intensified this aspect of the power struggle.

These princes, with the support of various Religious Sects, continually vied for power, engaging in both open and covert conflicts, while simultaneously, so Sects of the Da Ye Dynasty began to grow restless.

With fires burning at the borders and turmoil within, a continuous string of natural and man-made disasters occurred.

In just a few short years of Xuanjing’s seclusion, the entire Da Ye Dynasty went from a flourishing scene to instantaneously looking like a collapsing edifice.

Within the vast territory of the Da Ye Dynasty, besides these princes, so influential officials also rose up, seizing the opportunity. Although they had not entirely raised their banners in rebellion, with the backing of so Sects and noble families, they started ignoring the imperial court’s commands, forming states within a state.

Therefore, the Emperor made a decisive call to have these princes personally lead troops, each commanding a region, to suppress the various rebellions, attempting to reclaim control of each prefecture and to eliminate those vassals with hearts of disloyalty.

Although the old Emperor was well aware that each of his princes was ambitious, if they stayed in Da Xing City he could restrict them, but allowing these princes to leave the Royal Capital was like setting dragons free into the sea, tigers returning to the mountains; their power would grow stronger and the competition more intense.

On one hand there was unceasing internal strife, with the imminent threat of war breaking out and rebels erging continuously; on the other hand, the departure of many princes from the Royal Capital would inevitably lead to an increase in their power, reaching an unmanageable extent.

Faced with these two outcos, the old Emperor did not hesitate to choose the second.

For it is said, “Between two evils, choose the lesser.” If the internal strife led to flas of rebellion, and the rebels’ power grew significant, then the Da Ye Dynasty itself might be overturned.

Whereas with the latter, even if the princes grew too powerful and he ended up abdicating the throne, the Da Ye Dynasty would rely see a change of emperor; after all, his reign had not been short, and stepping down a few years earlier was not undesirable.

Thus, the many princes left the great Da Xing Royal Capital, headed in all directions, commanding their own staff officers and subordinates, and with the support of Religious Sects and noble families, they quickly seized power, gathered troops, and ford their own dominions as feudal kings.

The so-called “Dragon Slayers turn into evil dragons.”

After suppressing various forces, when these princes gathered troops under their command, ambition began to sprout as well.

After all, they had never controlled troops before. Even with the support of many, the ultimate decision-making power was in the hands of the Emperor. However, now with these troops in their hands and the support of powerhouses, their ntality imdiately changed.

As the old Emperor anticipated, once these princes had gained power, they were naturally unwilling to give it up, especially to return the power and then place their fates back into the hands of others.

Even if so princes were willing to agree and did not wish to do so, one must not forget they were not alone; countless supporters stood behind them, who would constantly instigate and inspire them to make a firm decision.

Thus, these princes who had left the Royal Capital, after eliminating so ambitious figures, similarly transford into new aspirants. Other than temporarily easing so turmoil, there was no doubt they exacerbated the crisis of the Da Ye Dynasty.

The struggles among the princes were already intense to begin with. Now, after each controlled their own prefectures, they all began thinking about expanding their territories to increase their influence.

After all, besides winning the Emperor’s recognition and defeating nurous opponents, there was another thod to ascend to the throne.

If one could really occupy half of the Da Ye Dynasty’s territory, even without the Emperor’s recognition, he could still ascend to the throne using his own strength.

In the following ti, the forces of these princes and princes rubbed against each other, using all sorts of covert and open sches, persuasion, actively expanding their influence, and making preparations to encircle and suppress the remaining major bandit forces.

However, what they did not know, or rather, knew but could not say, was that these bandits were not isolated; they had the support of powerful forces behind them.

For top religious sects like the Dao of Supre and the Creation Dao, they had orchestrated dynastic changes countless tis, and the thods and ans at their disposal were endless.

They understood that sotis a sturdy fortress must be broken down from within, which is why the rebellions and fragntations within the Da Ye Dynasty in these years had all been connected to the shadows of these religious sect families.

For them, no matter which option the old Emperor chose, they had corresponding plans.

If the old Emperor decided to deploy soone else and let these princes stay in the Royal Capital, then they would increase the support for these rebellious separations to sweep through the entire Da Ye Dynasty.

And if the old Emperor chose the latter, while supporting these princes and princes in their quest for power, they would also use this to integrate these rebellious separated forces, continuously selecting and cultivating them, allowing the strong to absorb the remaining power and beco even stronger.

Therefore, when these princes and princes took control of the state and military horses, the forces of those rebellious separations they had defeated began to converge automatically, forming several even more powerful factions.

In tis of chaos, there is always the ergence of heroic figures who, despite suppression from all sides, not only survive but continue to grow stronger, proving the might of these remaining factions and the excellence of their leaders.

When a dynasty changes, so powerhouses will always stand out and ascend from being a commoner to a supre position.

Just like the Great Ancestor Emperor of the Da Ye, who was once a junior official of the previous dynasty, was able to rise amidst the turmoil. Although he had the support of various sects, this only happened after his own force had taken shape.

At the very beginning, the Great Ancestor Emperor of Da Ye relied on his own abilities and charisma to win the trust and followings of many, cutting through thorns and obstacles to defeat nurous opponents and beco one of the few powerful rebel kings.

Now, these religious sects are choosing the sa thod; it’s nothing but a repeat of the events that happened more than three hundred years ago during the previous dynasty change.

In fact, if the wills of these religious sect families were united, the change of the dynasty would be a breeze without so much trouble, but it was not as simple as that.

For these lofty religious sect families, the change of the dynasty was not only the reason they forbade the appearance of the imperial court; it was also an opportunity for them to struggle and test each other, redistributing interests in the process.

Each religious sect family had its own interests. They supported different people, and whoever made it to the end would reap the greatest benefits, aning they would dominate the flourishing process of the next dynasty and suppress their opponents.

For those sect families that had bet and lost in the last dynasty change, the new one was a reshuffling process, where they could take this chance to retrieve what they once had.

It can be said that the change of the dynasty is just a facade; the real ga is still behind the scenes, where clashes of interests from all directions occur.

Moreover, this change of the dynasty was different from the past, as there was a new player in the ga apart from the original players.

Although over the years there had been new forces rising and participating in the dynastic changes to gain benefits and gradually strengthen, all these forces had accumulated from nothing, unlike the unexpected arrival this ti.
