Chapter 1540: Chapters 1488-1489 Unexpected Results, Pang Hong Dissatisfied Chapter 1540: Chapters 1488-1489 Unexpected Results, Pang Hong Dissatisfied Within the Shenxiao Domain, Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing sat high upon a cloud platform.
Pang Hong and Yu Zhenzi’s cloud platforms were relatively lower, indicating their respect for Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing.
Although their purpose was to discuss the issue of the Jade Emperor’s seizure of the Great Law Decree Technique, this issue, although important, was not the only one.
Since Pei Xuanjing had descended in incarnation and taken time out, he naturally began by expounding the Dao and the laws to them both, answering some of the doubts they had on their cultivation paths.
After all, both Pang Hong and Yu Zhenzi actually possessed the qualifications to reach the pinnacle.
Let’s not talk about Pang Hong, who practiced the Golden Core Dao founded by Pei Xuanjing and followed Pei Xuanjing’s path, later forging his own way. Reaching the level of a Taoist Monarch in the True Immortal Seventh Layer was never a big problem for him.
And Yu Zhenzi, his aptitude might only be considered mediocre, perhaps remarkable in the Mortal Realm, supporting his cultivation as he stepped into the Spirit Realm.
But by the time he truly stepped into the Seventh Layer, his potential had almost been exhausted, and for him, with his own qualifications, ascending to the Strongest Realm was considered exceedingly fortunate, not to mention reaching the level of a True Immortal.
However, sometimes cultivation depends not only on enlightenment and aptitude but significantly on background.
Even if Yu Zhenzi’s own aptitude was only average, just ordinary or perhaps not even standing out among his peers.
But his identity was different; he was an elder of the Shenxiao Sect, Pang Hong’s martial uncle, a follower who had been with Pei Xuanjing before his rise, a founder of the Shenxiao Sect.
Thus, even if his qualifications were insufficient and his enlightenment lacking, with Pei Xuanjing’s support and help, even pushing him with resources, he was promoted to the realm of a True Immortal, and it did not stop at just the basic True Immortal Realm.
One must know that ascending to True Immortal was a transformative leap of life; even if one’s enlightenment was ordinary and aptitude mediocre, once he ascended to True Immortal, it undoubtedly represented an unimaginable transformation, placing him on the same level as many other True Immortals.
After reaching the True Immortal Realm, with the strength of Longevity Taoist Monarch, the power of the Shenxiao Sect, and their influence in the Heavenly Court, Yu Zhenzi would certainly not lack any fortuitous opportunities–even without risking his life as ordinary True Immortals had to.
Now, although Yu Zhenzi was only at the True Immortal Sixth Layer, compared to other True Immortals at the same layer who were unsure if they could ascend to the Taoist Monarch level, Yu Zhenzi had great potential.
Describing Yu Zhenzi’s life experience with the saying, “When one person attains the Dao, even his pets ascend to heaven” is not an exaggeration and is quite fitting.
And this is not an insult or a derogation; indeed, if given the chance, many powerful beings in the Divine Land World or even in the All Heavens and Myriad Realms would wish to take his place, including those at the True Immortal level.
Just like today’s scene, not to speak of True Immortals at their level, even some Taoist Monarchs hardly had a chance to receive guidance privately from Longevity Taoist Monarch.
Who could have such a chance as they did, to receive one-on-one doctrine expounding from Longevity Taoist Monarch, targeted answers to their cultivation queries, and planning for their futures?
Thus, even with the matter of the Jade Emperor weighing on their minds, this meeting was extremely important. Yet, no matter how critical any issue could be, it could never be more critical than their own cultivation.
Thus, the two first seriously listened to the Dao, using it to validate and question their own cultivation paths, waiting for Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing’s answers.
After all this, they began to discuss the matter concerning the Jade Emperor.
“Martial Uncle, has the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder sent any messages back?” Pang Hong slowly asked.
Since Yu Zhenzi was responsible for this matter, he naturally wouldn’t overstep his authority or bypass Yu Zhenzi to inquire or take action.
“The Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder has gathered all the clues, just waiting for the Great Law Decree Technique to appear to bring it back,” Yu Zhenzi stated his plan.
The Myriad Laws Realm and the Divine Land World operate at different flows of time; presently, Yu Zhenzi only received news that the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder had acquired all clues about the Great Law Decree Technique and was quietly waiting for an opportunity to act.
What he didn’t know, however, was that in the Myriad Laws Realm at this very moment, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder had already obtained the Great Law Decree Technique, but hadn’t chosen to leave as planned. Instead, he had become embroiled in battle with the Jade Emperor.
However, in these circumstances, it isn’t just that Yu Zhenzi is unaware. Even if Yu Zhenzi were there, he couldn’t stop the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder’s decision; if the latter truly insisted on his course unwilling to leave, then they could only follow his wishes.
Within the entire Shenxiao Sect, truly, only Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing could make the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder give up his own ideas and follow orders.
But this matter, although important, did not warrant Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing’s personal intervention.
“Though, will the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder truly act entirely according to the plan?” Pang Hong asked, somewhat uncertain.
