The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 2080: Chapter 1226–1227: Demon-Sealing Ranking?

The Demonic Way is the most brutal, yet it is a place where the strongest can be honed.

The Blood Fiend Ancestor is no fool, or rather, those who can rise from such a cutthroat environment of the Demonic Way have never been fools. Especially when facing the strong, they are always adept at learning, learning everything that is beneficial to themselves.

This is also what the Blood Fiend Ancestor and other strong figures in the Demonic Way are most proud of. He can absorb the strengths of all strong beings, thereby creating the most formidable demon body, making himself even more powerful, allowing him to be inherently undefeated.

“The Gods Sealing List, such a heavenly and earthly treasure came into being for the Divine Tao, encompassing the fairy gods. As a part of the creatures of heaven and earth, the Demonic Way also needs to forge a Demon Sealing List as its foundation,” thought the Blood Fiend Ancestor.

Demon Sealing List!

This was the Blood Fiend Ancestor’s idea, to forge a treasure for the Demonic Way, modeled after the Gods Sealing List, as its foundation and inheritance, so that the Demonic Way can also possess a strong heritage and combat power.

This idea was not born overnight but had been brewing in the Blood Fiend Ancestor’s mind for many years, continuously planning and waiting for the right moment.

Moreover, this Demon Sealing List is not a shot in the dark, a mere whim, but has a basis.

It must be known that during the Conferred God War, besides the human race’s Gods Sealing List, the Demon Race had a Demon Summoning Banner, which actually served as their Gods Sealing List. If the Demon Summoning Banner could exist, why couldn’t the Demonic Way have a Gods Sealing List?

Furthermore, according to the information the Blood Fiend Ancestor has obtained, it’s not just himself who has this idea; many forces and strong figures harbor similar ambitions.

A rumor circulated within the Taoist School suggested that a strong figure wanted to recreate the True Spirit Position Map of old for the Taoist School, to refine a new True Spirit Position Map.

However, when this news came out, it was immediately dismissed by a True Monarch within the Taoist School because it was deemed impossible. Once attempted, it would provoke internal chaos akin to dogs breaking out in a fight.

After all, the Taoist School is different from other forces; they emphasize respecting teachers and valuing the Tao. How would one rank the historical ancestral figures of the Taoist School if judged by power? These figures were merely constrained by their environment, not lacking in power. Without them, the Taoist School’s current prosperity wouldn’t exist. To exclude these ancestral figures would be to forget one’s roots.

However, if you include these ancestral figures, where do True Immortals and Taoist Monarchs stand? Especially as some descendants of ancestral figures have declined, now merely an immortal sect, without even a True Immortal. Where would you place the top-tier forces, True Immortals, and Taoist Monarchs?

So, it’s an extremely awkward situation where any action is wrong, thus the matter is shelved, as no one can handle it.

The strong don’t need such things, and the weak have no right to rank, so it can only be shelved.

However, while the Taoist School doesn’t engage in such activities, Confucianism dares to play this game. After all, within Confucianism, the strength and cultivation insights are equal. Without sufficient theoretical support, a Great Confucian Master cannot step into higher realms.

So the movement within Confucianism never stopped, although there are many issues, like the inclusion of sages from the Hundred Schools, posing another problem of placement.

The Human Race Five Emperors also have a similar idea, wanting to rank the various kings with the Five Emperors as sovereign, set titles for themselves, and refine a King of Kings map, making them King of Kings, Emperor among Emperors!

The Lingshan world of the Buddhist School has arranged the positions of many Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhat Monks, with Da Leiyin Temple as the Sect of Ten Thousand Buddhas.

Plus, with the considerations of other forces, the Demonic Way was the only one without any action.

“That guy Wanling is still indecisive, refusing to completely stand by my side. If not for this, I wouldn’t have needed such trouble. Directly joining forces with him to integrate the Demonic Way would have been much easier. Middle-grounders are the first to be eliminated, yet he doesn’t understand such a simple truth.” The Blood Fiend Ancestor showed a hint of anger at the corner of his eye, gazing towards the direction of the Ten Thousand Spirits Sect, the internal situation of the Demonic Way being exceedingly complex, where infighting was rampant.

The situation used to be so advantageous; if only the Ten Thousand Spirits Demon Monarch agreed to cooperate, teaming up with him to pressure the Profound Yin Demon Lord into agreement, they could have smoothly integrated the Demonic Way and began drafting the Demon Sealing List.

That way, even if the younger Purgatory Demon Monarch or Ten Thousand Beasts Demon Monarch had ideas, they wouldn’t be able to stir up much trouble. But now, the other party had already proven to be a Taoist Monarch, unavoidably causing waves,

Those younger ones, even before proving themselves as Taoist Monarchs, never truly submitted to them. Now achieving the status of Taoist Monarch, they are even more unwilling to submit, even intending to stand on equal footing. This left the Blood Fiend Ancestor somewhat helpless; had the Ten Thousand Spirits Demon Monarch agreed earlier, he might have had more leverage.

Of course, this was the Blood Fiend Ancestor’s thought, and if the Ten Thousand Spirits Demon Monarch heard of it, he would surely snort disdainfully, even though he now harbors intentions of cooperation.

Everyone is involved in the Demonic Way, who wouldn’t know each other’s nature? The idea is good, the plan is perfect, but if you say there’s no pitfall intended for me during the execution of this plan, I could write my name backward.

Cooperation among the strong in the Demonic Way inevitably involves scheming and setting traps, and unless absolutely necessary, no one wishes to bear such risk.
