The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 1233: Chapter 1182–1183 Enthroning Gods! Hidden Worries Chapter 1233: Chapter 1182–1183 Enthroning Gods! Hidden Worries Great Ming Divine Dynasty, outside Tiandu, Gods Sealing Platform.

Long after the process of Enthroning Gods had ended, the Gods Sealing Platform had been refined by numerous True Immortals into a Semi-Immortal Artifact, almost serving as the existence of a Spirit Realm Cave Heaven.

Countless cultivators gathered below the Gods Sealing Platform, with many True Immortals and Supreme Overlord’s gazes fixated on this place, their eyes filled with curiosity and anticipation.

The many True Immortals were also full of expectation for the Gods Enthronement, as after their own attainment of Longevity, they still had their own disciples and followers.

The Immortal Path is arduous; even for disciples and followers of True Immortals, it is not certain they can truly ascend by their own abilities, thus they too are in need of a Divine Position.

As the person designated by Shenxiao True Monarch Pei Xuanjing for the Gods Enthronement, Hai Gangfeng stood solemnly before the Gods Sealing Platform, his eyes filled with gravity.

Three feet above the platform, Divine Incense was slowly lit, and what was offered on the altar were none other than the Heavenly Empress Hou Tu and the Gods Sealing List, below which lay a scroll.

Hai Gangfeng first bowed respectfully three times, then he carefully picked up the scroll and slowly unrolled it to begin the proclamation:

“Decree from Emperor of the South Pole Eternal Life, Shenxiao True Monarch, Master of the Longevity Path: In the past, the Demon Race posed a great calamity for the human race, their hearts holding relentless intentions of annihilation. Now, the valiant scholars of the human race have courageously taken the lead to expel the Demon Race and bring prosperity to the human race, thus they shall be duly rewarded.”

“By the command of the Emperor of the South Pole Eternal Life, Xuantian True Monarch, Ancestor Celestial Master…enfeoff the stars under heaven, perform the Enthronement for heaven, bless all beings, and take charge of the order of heaven and earth, ensuring the order of heaven and earth, the laws of the seasons, and societal norms, establishing global order–this is an affair of boundless merit, revere it well.”

“Today, by the decree of the Emperor of the South Pole Eternal Life, I hereby designate Hai Gangfeng of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty as the one to perform Enthronement for Gods, to obtain boundless merit, revere it well!”

Havi

“Emperor of the South Pole Eternal Life, a true immortal of great virtue of the human race, may his life be as long as the heavens, we shall meticulously follow the decree!” The crowd of cultivators bowed in unison, respectfully paying their homage.

Even among the human race’s many Supreme Strong ones, those merely one step away from the Immortal Path, none dared display any arrogance at this moment, maintaining respectful demeanors.

On the path of cultivation, those who reach are leaders.

The True Immortals of the human race are the pioneers on this path, revered for the legacies left by their predecessors.

Furthermore, with the human race defeating the Demon Race, these True Immortals exerted great effort and meticulous care, contributing significantly to the human race.

Also, the forging of the Gods Sealing List, advancing the matter of Gods Enthronement, and planning for the longevity of countless beings of the human race, they are naturally to be kept in everlasting remembrance.

With these three great achievements alone, they deserve all respect from the human race, irrespective of their level of cultivation.

Next, a streak of light crossed the sky, and as the light disappeared, the God-beating Whip floated in front of Hai Gangfeng, emitting a mysterious aura that corresponded with the Gods Sealing List offered on the altar.

While people were wondering, a voice transmitted from the vast sky: “The matter of Enthroning Gods is of great importance, although many cultivators have made great labors, many among them are uncontrollable. Fearing the process of Enthroning might encounter disturbances, I temporarily bestow upon you the God-beating Whip, to be used to keep the deities in check.”

Upon hearing this, the numerous True Immortals who were already aware of the existence of the God-beating Whip were not surprised, yet the many previously jubilant cultivators could not help but have their expressions subtly change.

Indeed, just as Pei Xuanjing had predicted, while these cultivators are dedicated to the human race, most are also defiant by nature, rarely subjected to constraints.

As the saying goes, “Those with blades ready can easily foster a killing intent.” For these cultivators, obtaining a divine position through enfeoffment was a means to their Longevity; however, it did not mean that they would completely submit themselves to the Heavenly Court.

In the view of many cultivators, once they refine their divine positions in the future and achieve Longevity, they would naturally pay heed to imperial edicts only in appearance, not in spirit–as long as they do not commit major errors, the authorities should not be able to strip their divinity without cause.

Yet who would have thought that before the divine position was even granted, the God-beating Whip would manifest first. This undoubtedly cast a shadow over many cultivators’ hearts, diminishing some of their joy.

Many powerful beings had clearer recognition of the methods employed by this True Monarch Shenxiao; these newly rising cultivators saw only the side of Pei Xuanjing, the True Monarch Shenxiao, that tirelessly advocated for the human race and considered him greatly virtuous and wise.

However, those older cultivators who had witnessed the resurgence of the ancestral lands and the merging of the two realms before, saw the rise of this Shenxiao True Monarch, and were not surprised at all by this, thinking it completely natural.

“Indeed there are no unearned benefits; to depend on a divine position for longevity, one must bear corresponding responsibilities.” The Da Xue Country Lord was not surprised by this, inwardly mocking those cultivators.

Being a powerful being of this level, he was aware of the true purpose behind these True Immortals forming the heavenly courts, naturally understanding the responsibilities and obligations that the future Heavenly Court must shoulder.

How could these True Immortals possibly not have some measures of control over the future deities of the Heavenly Court?

One should never overestimate human nature, the human race is united against external enemies, but internally they are not truly solid, especially once the external threats are gone and these individuals have achieved longevity.

The infighting within the future Heavenly Court, a scenario filled with struggles for power and profit, could be anticipated.

“Indeed, if there were no measures to control these deities, how could we ensure that the situation is maintained in the future, allowing the Heavenly Court to continue its expansion?” The Great River Country Lord also agreed solemnly.

The Great River Country Lord, who had obtained the fruits from geubhe Divine Tree, was almost within arm’s reach from the Immortal Path.
