The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 1286: Chapter 1234–1235 True Immortal Third Rank Emperor Wenchang Chapter 1286: Chapter 1234–1235 True Immortal Third Rank Emperor Wenchang “…” Great White Star Lord remained silent for a long while, his expression grave as he asked, “Do these two methods affect one’s ascension to the Immortal Path?”

He quickly grasped such principles, for someone who had cultivated to his level today was certainly not a fool.

What he was more concerned about now was another matter, that is, whether his opportunistic approach came with any hidden dangers and whether it would affect his ascension to the Immortal Path or have any impact on his development after entering the Immortal Path.

For those who aspire to reach higher levels of strength, he knew all too well how important the foundation of cultivation was. If such a method of borrowing external forces damaged the foundation, then his future achievements would inevitably be limited.

“Given the situation, even if there are consequences, are you really ready to sever this layer of cultivation and start over?” Fire Virtue Star Lord countered with a question instead of giving a direct answer.

Divine light flickered in Great White Star Lord’s eyes, his face wavering with indecision. Finally, he spoke in a deep voice, “If it does have an impact, severing it and starting over might not be out of the question.”

For an ambitious person aiming to step into farther realms, any damage to the foundation is utterly unacceptable. Even if it meant severing the current progress and wasting time, it would be worth it.

“Hahaha, worthy of being from the Sword Sect indeed, so decisive.” A look of admiration appeared on Fire Virtue Star Lord’s face.

This answer very much aligned with his own thoughts. If one seeks to become powerful, there can be no negligence, and one must solidify their foundation as much as possible to advance further.

“Rest assured, there is no impact.” Fire Virtue Star Lord said with a smile, shaking his head, “This plan is driven by Emperor Monarch in conjunction with many True Immortals. How could they leave such hidden dangers?”

Indeed, using the Creation Purple Qi from Enthroning Gods to enhance strength was a plan of Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing and many True Immortals. If there were any significant negative consequences, they certainly would not have initiated it.

After all, while it is important to elevate the strength of many cultivators, it’s also imperative not to do so in a way that stunts their natural growth and leaves irreparable damage. They could not afford to act in desperation and do something shortsighted.

Phew!

Hearing Fire Virtue Star Lord’s answer, Great White Star Lord finally let go of the concern he had been holding, but then he asked, “So what is the difference between the two methods?”

He believed there must be a difference between the two; otherwise, Fire Virtue Star Lord would not have brought it up at this time.

“According to what Emperor Monarch explains, the barrier to the Immortal Path is as if obstructed by a massive, heavy door. To step into the Immortal Path, one must have enough strength to push open this door, then cross over and undergo the transformation through the baptism,” Fire Virtue Star Lord said, conveying Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing’s description of the Immortal Path. Although somewhat straightforward, it was very fitting.

The Supreme Strong of the Nine Realms of Spirit breaking through to the Immortal Realm is essentially an attempt to push open the door of the Immortal Path and then cross over to transform themselves through the baptism.

To open the door to the Immortal Path, one needs sufficient power, yet it does not matter whether that power comes from laborious cultivation or is boosted through external help. As long as one can push open the door and step into it, success is achieved, without distinguishing between the two methods.

“Of course, there is a difference. One is akin to accumulating strength and achieving sudden breakthroughs, and the other is akin to letting things develop naturally.” Fire Virtue Star Lord spoke slowly.

“Do you know the difference between the human race and Innate Gods and Demons when breaking through to the Immortal Path?”

“I do.”

“Likewise, among the strongest beings at their limit, differences in realm and power are akin to the differences between the human race and Gods-Devils. A Supreme Strong of the Nine Realms can attempt to touch the Immortal Path, and, given the chance and fortune, they may step into the True Immortal Realm even without reaching the limit of the Supreme Strong. Of course, most of such cases belong to True Immortal First Layer Heaven, which is the most basic level among True Immortals.”

“However, for a Supreme Overlord, they have more in-depth understanding and contact with the Immortal Path. Before stepping into the Immortal Path, they have already begun to solidify their foundation, transform themselves, and accumulate more substantial essence. When they enter the realm of the Immortal Path, they can bypass the True Immortal First Layer Heaven and directly step into the True Immortal Second Layer Heaven.”

“The difference between True Immortal First Layer Heaven and Second Layer Heaven isn’t that significant–the difference mainly lies in the mastery of the realm and the accumulation of mana. For real power-seekers willing to spend time and effort to cultivate deeply at the limit of Supreme Strong, what they aspire for is to bypass the first two layers, to directly step into the pinnacle of True Immortal Third Layer Heaven and try ascending into True Immortal Fourth Layer Heaven. That’s their true goal.”

“So all efforts are aimed at laying a solid foundation on this path, awaiting a meteoric rise after stepping into the Immortal Path?” Great White Star Lord said.

“Exactly! It is an extreme way of cultivation. Although it takes longer to step into the Immortal Path, their combat power will be tremendously fearsome while they are at the Strongest Realm,” Fire Virtue Star Lord mentioned the previous Bloody Trial, “During the Bloody Trial, many Supreme Strong fought fiercely for the Divine Tree fruits, with countless power struggles. Even among the Supreme Overlords, some could suppress several others, showcasing their terrifying might.”

Divine Light gleamed in Great White Star Lord’s eyes as he said leisurely, “During the Bloody Trial, Star Lord seized the Divine Tree fruits and suppressed several Supreme Overlords. It must have been this path you took. Now I wonder, after stepping into the Immortal Path, which layer of True Immortal did you reach?”

He suddenly remembered that the person in front of him was once a Supreme Overlord who had suppressed others during the Bloody Trial to seize the Divine Tree’s fruits, and now that he had stepped onto the Immortal Path, he was probably not just a common True Immortal of the First Layer Heaven.
