The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 1109: Chapter 1058–1059: Life Simulation–The Doubts of the Creator Sect Master Chapter 1109: Chapter 1058–1059: Life Simulation–The Doubts of the Creator Sect Master The establishment of the Da Ye Dynasty and the foundation set as such, even up to today’s circumstances where resistance was still possible, demonstrated Grand Ancestor of Da Ye’s status as a formidable overlord–his experiences were truly legendary.

Had it not been for this Heaven and Earth where numerous religious sects and noble families suppressed the world, disallowing the emergence of an imperial court, Grand Ancestor of Da Ye, constrained by others, might have been able to develop the Da Ye Dynasty even further, establishing an imperial court and crafting his own legend.

Yet even in such circumstances, under numerous restrictions and external pressures, Grand Ancestor of Da Ye had not given up; the situation he faced even had the potential of turning around, which sufficiently showed the opposition’s strength.

“Tell me, how could such a powerhouses not make them apprehensive? Without accurate news of such an overlord’s demise, they dare not take him lightly at all.”

“This Struggle for the Dragon is unlike the past; previously, only in the end would pinnacle Human Immortals or Seven Calamities Ghost Immortals act. But as of now, countless powerhouses, including pinnacle Human Immortals and Seven Calamities Ghost Immortals, have fallen.” The Righteous King’s face took on a solemn expression, saying gravely: “Now that people like Grand Ancestor of Da Ye have received Qi Luck blessings, nobody knows how much their power has grown, but to suggest that they have the strength of Eight Tribulations Ghost Immortals or even Nine Tribulations Ghost Immortals, I would not doubt or find it surprising.”

As one of the Rebel Kings and Princes, he too was a beneficiary of the Method of Qi Luck. It was precisely because this method had so rapidly enhanced his power that he understood how terrifying Qi Luck could be.

Switching places, even a man without any foundational heritage could greatly increase his cultivation in a short time; hence, he would not doubt if Grand Ancestor of Da Ye, with centuries of heritage and the cumulative efforts of the Da Ye Dynasty facilitated by the Method of Qi Luck, could break through to the Nine Tribulations Ghost Immortal Realm.

Such powerhouses were not something they could contend with; those present at the meeting, all lacking the eligibility to compete, needed the intervention of peak powerhouses from various sects and noble families, or else there was no chance of success.

Whether it was an awakening for those lost in a dream or a piercing through the reality everyone was reluctant to face, when the Righteous King spoke these words, they had no choice but to confront the problem.

“So, the urgency of the moment is not about how we break through Da Xing City,” the Righteous King shook his head slightly, his expression slightly disdainful: “To put it bluntly, even though Da Xing City might be tougher than other cities we have attacked, it pales in comparison to the Great Passes that are tough to defend and attack. If we truly decided to attack, Da Xing City would not hold out. Our concern should not be how to break through Da Xing City, but how to face a powerhouse like Grand Ancestor of Da Ye.”

Although the Righteous King’s words sounded somewhat arrogant, none of the attendees opposed; rather, they felt it was natural.

Any city or pass, when being constructed, considered its significance and purpose. The Great Passes were established to hinder enemies and protect allies, while some cities were intended to display certain things.

Da Xing City, being the capital city of the Da Ye Dynasty, was destined from its inception not to be among those that were tough to defend and attack; it even fell into the category of being the easiest to strategize against.

Thus, even if guarded by a million-strong army, if they came to a consensus to join forces in an attack, taking the city would merely be a matter of time and not a concern at all.

But just as the Righteous King said, their concern was that if Grand Ancestor of Da Ye made another breakthrough, with the power he demonstrated, it could greatly affect the battle situation and bring unimaginable losses to them.

“Although a combined army forming a war array can suppress powerhouses and grind them down in a disregard for death scenario, even top powerhouses can be worn down. But humans are not emotionless machines; facing death, they too harbor worries and fears along with a hesitant heart, which explains why a single person can break through thousands in battle,” behind the Righteous King, Sun Liang’s eyes flashed with remembrance, this being what his own teacher had taught him years ago, something he had personally experienced.

When Sun Liang first stepped into the Martial Saint Ghost Immortal Realm, feeling the immense power surge through him, a haughty spirit arose along with some doubts: as powerful as cultivators were, toppling mundane dynasties should be easy, so why such elaborate maneuvers?

However, his teacher later gave him the answer: besides the Qi Luck blessing obtained when a dynasty consolidates control over Central State, which if acted against prematurely would cause backlash from Qi Luck, there were additionally those millions of armored soldiers.

Indeed, while these top cultivators possessed tremendous battle prowess and profound divine techniques, able to move mountains and seize stars with a wave of their hand, appearing omnipotent,

in reality, the dynasty’s soldiers were not useless. Besides suppressing various factions, when the number of soldiers was sufficient, the momentum and formation of the army itself also constituted an invincible Tao, affecting the Will of Heaven and Earth, and imposing restrictions on cultivators, preventing them from unleashing their full combat potential.

While it is common for one person to vanquish an army, on a battlefield where large troops march, with pervasive vitality and connected will of the soldiers combined with the mystique of their formations, cultivators too face a tremendous threat, potentially being suppressed and worn down.
