Chapter 856: Chapter 806: Zhengyi Alliance Prestige, Commanding Ghost Gods
Heaven, Earth, Human, God, Ghost—five classifications of the Immortal Path. In Pei Xuanjing’s view, they already encompassed most of the ascension methods to True Immortal that either top-tier forces or independent top powerhouses could possibly follow.
Xuantian Sect could achieve the status of True Immortal through the Earthly Immortal Path and the Heavenly Immortal Way, but if they were willing to spend time coagulating authority, no matter which northern God they represented or which Black Emperor they were, it was actually possible for them to ascend to True Immortal through the Dao of Spirit Immortals.
Similarly, although Sword Sect’s foundation is based on the ascension through the Heavenly Immortal Way, as a top-tier force with a powerful Cave Heaven, Sword Sect could, if they devoted all their effort, certainly cultivate a strong Earth Immortal Path powerhouse.
In fact, many of these top-tier forces, as long as they have numerous disciples and are willing to use their Cave Heavens, which took countless years to build, to help one person succeed, all have a great chance to find a way through to True Immortal status. Even if they unfortunately fail, there is an opportunity to try again.
However, the time required by the Earth Immortal Path is too long. Aside from the few top forces that now have sufficient heritage to take a chance at this time of ascension between Heaven and Earth, other top forces simply don’t qualify.
...
For instance, Xuan Du Guan, a top force, although they have several of the strongest individuals in their ranks, cannot succeed through the earth Immortal Path due to their scarce number of disciples, even though they possess a sect’s Cave Heaven.
On the other hand, the Buddhist top-tier forces, what they seek to ascend to True Immortal status—or the so-called Arhat Fruition as per their terms—is something Pei Xuanjing isn’t completely certain about. He can only guess broadly that it’s most likely the Divine Tao, as for so many years when it comes to accumulating the Force of Faith Incense, Buddhism is naturally the most extensive. In this regard, Buddhism could be considered as overshadowing The Heroes, even the Taoist School and the Demonic Way can’t compete with them.
Moreover, aside from the Power of Incense Fire, it would not surprise Pei Xuanjing if Buddhism succeeded through the Human Immortal Path and Earth Immortal Path as well.
