The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings Chapter 978 - 978 s 926-927 What Is the Demon Race The Heroe

Chapter 978: Chapters 926-927 What Is the Demon Race? The Heroes Gather in Tiandu 2-in-1 Part 2 Chapter 978: Chapters 926-927 What Is the Demon Race? The Heroes Gather in Tiandu 2-in-1 Part 2 All the Supre Strongs were clear that of the thirty-seven Spirit Realm Cave Skies discovered by the Great Ming Divine Dynasty this ti, besides the largest Cave Sky refined and controlled by Emperor Zhu Houji of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, there remained thirty-six.

However, it was certain that not all thirty-six Spirit Realm Cave Skies could be taken out; at the very least, within the Divine Dynasty, aside from His Majesty the Emperor, there were other existences. They would undoubtedly keep a few Spirit Realm Cave Skies for themselves.

Besides, back then, the Shenxiao Sect, Dragon Tiger Mountain, Witch God Sect, Xuan Du Guan, True Martial Sect, and others had sent Strong ones to assist the Great Ming Divine Dynasty. Thus, it wouldn’t be surprising as a form of repaynt if they were to be given a share of the Spirit Realm Cave Skies.

After deducting the Great Ming Divine Dynasty’s share and those of Shenxiao Sect among others, plus so immortal sects extending a hand, it was questionable how much would be left for those Independent Practitioners.

Under such circumstances, if these Independent Practitioner Supre Strongs did not choose to unite, and each fought their own battles, what could they use to compete with those top-ranking forces?

And if seven or eight Supre Strongs were to band together to form an Alliance, such a powerful force would be formidable unless they provoke the True Immortals to act; otherwise, even immortal sects would be wary of them.

Although it wasn’t explicitly stated this ti, the reason so many people were willing to participate was not solely due to the Great Ming Divine Dynasty. It was more so because of the backing of the two True Immortals – the Shenxiao True Monarch and Witch God Sect Leader.

In today’s Heaven and Earth, True Immortals ruled all. Shenxiao True Monarch’s power was widely recognized, and although the Witch God Sect Leader hadn’t made a move, with the reputation of the Witch God Sect, it was clear this individual was no ordinary being.

With the guarantees of the two True Immortals, Shenxiao True Monarch and Witch God Sect Leader, as long as they did not breach the contract or leave behind any flaws, the True Immortals would have no reason to act against them unless they wanted to fall out with Shenxiao True Monarch.

Inside Tiandu of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty.

Although the Great Ming Divine Dynasty had provided countless Powerhouses with places to rest in the Mystical Land of Blessings, many of them did not enter and instead remained stationed within Tiandu.

Within the entirety of Tiandu, no one knew how many Powerhouses road, but these Powerhouses had not behaved too outlandishly in Tiandu, adhering to the rules and laws of Tiandu.

Even so, the appearance of so many Powerhouses and their convergence still drew considerable attention from many in the Great Ming Divine Dynasty. They feared that any carelessness could provoke a clash between Powerhouses, potentially leading to catastrophe.

It’s known that Tiandu, as the Land of Ultimate Virtue of the Divine Dynasty and the Emperor’s residence, was ho to countless citizens. Especially in recent years, with the continuous expansion of Tiandu, the number of citizens living there was innurable.

Although it’s said that most of the citizens had so cultivation, no matter how much cultivation they possessed, unless they entered the Strongest Realm, if there was a clash among Supre Strongs, even just the aftermath could cause nurous casualties.

“Are those people still in the city, not having left yet?” asked Wang Qiong as he sat in his study flipping through docunts, addressing Gu Ji who had just entered.

“Those people have not left yet,” replied Gu Ji with a wry smile.

The appearance of these people originally had nothing to do with his duties, as it should have been the responsibility of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Departnt. However, as the Minister of the Ministry of War, Wang Qiong had tasked him to keep an eye on the matter, and Gu Ji had no way to decline.

Even Gu Ji, who had seen his power continuously improve over the years with the help of the Divine Investiture, found it quite troubleso to face so many Supre Strongs.

“Minister, what exactly are these people trying to do?” Gu Ji asked Wang Qiong for advice.

To be honest, he was sowhat puzzled by their actions. Logically speaking, if they ca because of the Spirit Realm Cave Skies, but since the imperial court had already prepared a Mystical Land of Blessings for them to settle in, most of these Supre Strongs lingered in Tiandu and seldom went there.

Given the power of Supre Strongs, even if the Mystical Land of Blessings was destroyed, it would not harm them. Moreover, with so many Supre Strongs around, even with True Immortal support, the Great Ming Divine Dynasty would not be insane enough to use this opportunity to entrap them.

Wang Qiong sneered, “They are waiting for soone.”

“Waiting for soone?” Gu Ji was even more puzzled.

Wang Qiong explained, “Most of those who are currently staying inside Tiandu are Independent Practitioners. The Strong ones from the major forces have not yet arrived. They are all waiting, fearing that so major force will make a move or, alternatively, reach an agreent with His Majesty in advance.”

Insider trading is quite normal; these independent practitioners are not big powers, and they fear that so influential factions will not respect the rules, secretly seeking Zhu Houji for backdoor deals.

After all, although Zhu Houji had agreed to share the Spirit Realm Cave Sky for all strong practitioners to compete over, the exact amount to be put forth was still undecided, and one had to be wary of soone making an early move.

“So that’s how it is.” Gu Ji nodded, suddenly enlightened.

As soone who had been drifting in the officialdom for so many years, he had only montarily forgotten about these matters, not that he did not understand them.

Just like many things in the Court, once the initial news spread, operations would begin, and by the ti they were formally brought up for discussion, everything had usually been settled with the outco already determined.

“Next, you must continue to keep a close watch on these people, and after so ti when they have all left, things will ease up,” Wang Qiong instructed Gu Ji.

He had no choice; in principle, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Departnt should handle this, but as the Minister of the Military Equipnt Departnt, he naturally had to be concerned about these matters affecting the security of the Divine Dynasty.

“This subordinate understands,” Gu Ji nodded and then asked, “Is there anything else, Minister?”

After all, if he was just called in to learn about the current situation in Tiandu, it would not necessitate interrupting his busy schedule just to ask these questions.

Wang Qiong put down the book in his hand and asked, “Have you seen Bo’an since his return to Tiandu?”

Indeed, thought Gu Ji.

After thinking for a mont, he answered, “I had the chance to et Brother Bo’an once after his return, but afterwards he ntioned he was going into seclusion and we haven’t t since.”

Gu Ji didn’t conceal these facts, as he knew what the relationship between the two n really was.

Normally, Wang Qiong’s past ntoring of Wang Boan had opened up opportunities for the latter’s future, and they should have been close without reservation.

But as tis and circumstances changed beyond control, Wang Boan’s military achievents had been outstanding over the years, and having been stationed at the frontier for over a hundred years, his increasing strength had naturally gathered countless followers behind him, even without deliberate cultivation on his part.

However, these followers were loyal to Wang Boan, not Wang Qiong, and they were not willing to see Wang Boan submit to others, creating a sowhat awkward situation between Wang Boan and Wang Qiong.

Their personal relationship might not be affected, but their views and choices within the political affairs of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty could differ due to their differing positions.

For instance, aside from the Spirit Realm Cave Sky refined by the Emperor, the Great Ming Divine Dynasty could naturally retain a few more Spirit Realm Cave Skies, but how to distribute these remaining Cave Skies had beco a major issue.

The Royal Family, Cabinet, various ministries, Noble Officials, Border Army, and other forces were intertwined and connected, all vying for the Spirit Realm Cave Skies.

Gu Ji understood that Wang Qiong wanted to know Wang Boan’s stance on this matter, as one of the few Supre Strong of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, Wang Boan’s attitude could determine many things.

As a senior official of the ministries, Wang Qiong also had to consider the interests of those behind him and maintain the interests of the Ministry of War as well as of the ministries as a whole.

Even if he felt his relationship with Wang Boan was sowhat awkward, when it ca to the interests of the ministries, he could not afford to care about his own dignity.

After all, for these old foxes, tangible interests were far more real than the intangible aspect of face.

“When Bo’an cos out of seclusion, if he contacts you, please let him know that I wish to see him,” Wang Qiong said decisively to Gu Ji.

“This subordinate will rember that,” Gu Ji said and then left Wang Qiong’s residence.
