The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

This Supreme Overlord thought to himself that once the news spread, those True Immortals and Supreme Overlords on par with True Immortals would clearly understand the message, as after all, none of those who have reached this point in their cultivation were fools.

In the Shenxiao Sect, if any matter was to succeed without the permission of the Sect Leader or the Ancestral Master, it simply meant that the matter was doomed to fail.

Thus, these True Immortals, upon seeing such a selection by the Sect Leader, should have understood his attitude and would decisively give up this idea.

The position of Sect Leader in the Shenxiao Sect was indeed tempting to the True Immortals, since it involved supreme authority and Qi Luck, but it was not indispensable.

If Pang Hong had given up the position of Sect Leader without any instructions, it would mean he didn’t mind these True Immortals succeeding him, and they naturally wouldn’t hesitate to compete for the position, trying to leverage its authority for their cultivation.

But now, Pang Hong’s attitude had become quite clear, almost explicitly telling them not to participate in this competition. If they still shamelessly continued to fight, they would not only fail to win but might also displease the Sect Leader, a scenario they all wished to avoid.

These True Immortals, within the Shenxiao Sect, held far more authority than ordinary Supreme Strong individuals or Supreme Overlords. Each of them, capable of certifying as a True Immortal or comparable to one, were elders who had existed since the early rise of the Shenxiao Sect.

These powerful individuals understood better than the later generations of Supreme Strong individuals that there was a deep master-disciple relationship between Sect Leader Pang Hong and the Ancestral Master, Lord Long, who didn’t care about the affairs of the sect at all, entrusting everything to Pang Hong. Therefore, Sect Leader Pang Hong could fully represent the will of the Ancestral Master.

Therefore, when this news was conveyed, these True Immortals had decisively given up the idea and would not invest any energy or resources in a matter doomed to fail.

Even if there were implications that suggested their participation, it was most probably just for show, a process to pave the way for the next generation’s Sect Leader.
