The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings - Chapter 2001: 1946–1947: Taoist Monarch’s Opponent, Hou Tu Blocks the Way (Part 2)

Chapter 2001: Chapter 1946–1947: Taoist Monarch’s Opponent, Hou Tu Blocks the Way (Part 2)

Immediately afterward, all the Gods positioned on the Gods Sealing List seemed to feel an overwhelming aura from the list. Accumulated divine power was being channeled towards the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch as if money were no object, using this talisman as a conduit.

This is one reason why the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch is so powerful. While his foundational strength pales compared to some strong individuals of the same realm, he wields the God-beating Whip, which allows him to borrow the immense power of the Gods Sealing List when necessary.

The Gods Sealing List itself is an unparalleled artifact, sufficient to suppress numerous Immortal Artifacts and Divine Weapons. It is intertwined with the gods, serving as the foundation of the Heavenly Court. The strength of the gods and the grandeur of the Heavenly Court are tied to the strength of the Gods Sealing List.

If the full power of the Gods Sealing List were completely activated and held by a Taoist Monarch, no one would doubt its ability to suppress a Taoist Monarch.

Though it is not currently wielded by the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch, the surging divine power he borrows enables him to exert the combat prowess of a Quasi-Taoist.

“Boom” “Boom” “Boom”

Three intense collisions sounded from the void, fists and whips clashing, raising endless waves of air that shook the void, forcing some observing Taoist Monarchs to safeguard their surroundings.

No choice at this moment—the ferocious mana collision from these three combatants would reduce even Supreme Strong to dust, possibly leading to the fall of True Immortals, with turbulent space currents madly radiating in all directions.

No one could imagine that this was merely a battle at the Quasi-Taoist level, standing at the pinnacle of the True Immortal realm.

With each movement, they nearly touched the combat strength level of a Taoist Monarch, transcending the shackles of True Immortals, able to look down upon all True Immortals except those of the same tier.

“Insane, truly insane. The clash of these few already rivals the Taoist Monarch level.”

“They cannot continue to fight here, or the Divine Land World will not withstand the residual impact of their clash.”

“Ordinary True Immortals who do not wish to die, quickly retreat. Once the aftermath spreads, those below the Third Layer of True Immortals, even if not dead, will be severely injured.”

Numerous observing strong individuals expressed one after another, with some angrily shouting reprimands.

Even though they originally wanted to witness the clash of these few, they did not wish to see the Divine Land World destroyed. The clash completely exceeded their expectations, the terrifying aftermath nearly at the Taoist Monarch level.

Although they were pleased to see mutual slaughter among these parties, the loss to the Divine Land World would be of no benefit to anyone.

“Fight, continue to fight!” Some powerful figures whispered in their hearts.

These powerful individuals actually anticipated Ju Mang Ancestor Witch’s success, not because they had any connection with Ju Mang Ancestor Witch but because they wanted Ju Mang Ancestor Witch to break the rules.

As long as Ju Mang Ancestor Witch privately refined the Divine Position this time and was not punished, it would mean that other strong individuals could follow suit.

“Either stop, or fight in the Chaos Void!” A strong Taoist Monarch said coldly.

These Taoist Monarchs could not sit idly; they did not want the Divine Land World to be truly damaged.

“Dongji, Gou Chen, are you two Imperials just going to sit and watch?” A Taoist Monarch questioned solemnly, undoubtedly addressing the two Imperials currently seated in the Heavenly Court.

No choice, within the Six Imperials of the Heavenly Court, the Great Emperor Ziwei and the Jade Emperor are clearly occupied, and that Imperial Honors Houtu cannot leave the Nether Yin Department, even coming out, it’s clear whose side she would lean towards.

Regarding the Emperor of the South Pole Eternal Life, no one dared to question, especially when Pang Hong had already stepped forward.

In the Heavenly Court, the Emperor Gouchen and Great Emperor Qinghua, who were sitting opposite, watching the excitement, exchanged a helpless look upon hearing these words.

No choice, their current status is such, what others say is true, they had to step in to manage this mess, or else they would leave room for criticism.

It should be noted that quite a few Taoist Monarchs are dissatisfied with them, pretending to be unaware of this matter to this point would just give others a handle against them.

More importantly, the actions undertaken by the Jade Emperor, Thunder God, and Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch now are all to uphold the dignity of the Heavenly Court and gods. If they sit and do nothing, how will the gods under their command view them, and how can they retain trust in the future in the position of the Imperial Honors?

Support is mutual; these gods follow them because they believe that their might can bring better opportunities, allowing them to reach the pinnacle.

However, if this time Ju Mang Ancestor Witch’s private refining of the Divine Position is not punished, resulting in a fait accompli while they remain indifferent, the repercussions will be severe, causing alienation among the gods.

But just as the two Imperials were about to take action, suddenly, two figures appeared before them, blocking their path.

“Hou Tu!”

“Lady Pingxin! Are you also going to intervene in this matter?”

Emperor Gouchen and Great Emperor Qinghua looked sternly at the two figures who appeared before them.

The individuals blocking their path are none other than the Imperial Honors Houtu, secluded in the Nether Yin Department, and Lady Pingxin. The appearance of the Imperial Honors Houtu was not unexpected, given her ties with the Witch Deity Teaching.

However, the appearance of Lady Pingxin surprised these two Imperials greatly.

It must be known that this former Reincarnation Demon, after returning to the current era, was resurrected as one of the creators of reincarnation and later guarded the Helpless Bridge as Granny Meng incarnation, with her True Body residing long in the Netherworld, uninvolved in worldly affairs.

Now that she had come here with Imperial Honors Houtu, was she unable to resist the opportunity to meddle in the conflict?

“This Palace merely wishes to debate with the two Imperial Brothers, why such urgency?” Imperial Honors Houtu smiled serenely, speaking softly to the two.

The gentle smile was like a spring breeze, inadvertently resolving the forceful inquiry of the two Imperials.

“This Palace, residing long in the Netherworld, visits your majesties abruptly today, hoping for your generosity.” Lady Pingxin spoke softly.

The implied threat in the two Imperials’ tone seemed utterly dismissed by Lady Pingxin’s calm demeanor, considering she had contemplated the scenarios before choosing to cooperate with the Witch Deity Teaching and coming here.

Hearing their words, both Emperor Gouchen and Great Emperor Qinghua’s expressions had turned cold, and the air seemed to stagnate, the atmosphere tense as though an impending eruption of a volcano.

This anger from the two Imperials was justified, as they had chosen to observe and not act regarding the current matter to gauge the Jade Emperor’s cards and other parties’ reactions.

However, this choice was theirs to make; facing obstruction when they finally decided to intervene was a different issue.

If they had originally planned not to interfere, it wouldn’t matter now, but being blocked at the door meant a confrontation was inevitable.

Standing opposite were Emperor Gouchen, Great Emperor Qinghua, and Imperial Honors Houtu, Lady Pingxin, a battle imminent and unavoidable.

For Emperor Gouchen and Great Emperor Qinghua, retreating now was not an option. Letting rumors spread of merely two Taoist Monarchs deterring them from getting involved in the Witch Deity Teaching’s affairs would make them a laughingstock.

However, as the four faced off, the world’s situation shifted again, as a talisman sword soared from the Divine Land World piercing towards the heavens, stirring the chaos outside the world.

Talisman Sword Skill, Bai Qicang.

This was the Bai Qicang, the first below the Taoist Monarch, attaining the Taoist Monarch status!
