The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Watching the bright-eyed gazes of the Star Gods under his command, Great Emperor Ziwei didn’t even need to ponder what they meant.

However, he was very pleased with these star gods, for standing in his position, he had already come into disagreement with the Sect over authority and status, undiscussable differences that even if he returned to the Sect, he would only be sidelined and unable to touch the true core of power.

It could be said that what he could rely on now were these subordinate deities, their existence was his support, and their undisguised allegiance was exactly what he hoped for. Otherwise, he would indeed be isolated and without support.

"Of course, if I could seize the Great Law Decree Technique, it would unquestionably be a good thing for me," said Great Emperor Ziwei with a smile, in effect approving the thoughts of many Star Gods.

Standing at different levels, one sees entirely different things. Even though among these Star Gods there were not a few True Immortals, they had not yet truly reached the pinnacle; they were ignorant of many secrets.

They only saw the True Immortals’ apprehension towards the Jade Emperor, believing that with the Jade Emperor’s robust foundations, if he truly commanded all authority of the Heavenly Court, the Jade Emperor’s power would swell to an inconceivable extent, threatening many True Immortal Taoist Monarchs.

However, the threat of the Jade Emperor did not solely stem from the Jade Emperor himself but rather from the position he occupied. As the Emperor of Heaven, he was the lord of the universe, with the rightful cause to command all under heaven, a legitimacy that others, regardless of their strength, lacked.

Thus, if the Jade Emperor were to be feared in that position, one would also be feared, suppressed, and constrained if one truly sat in it.

Or let’s say the position of the Emperor of Heaven, if occupied without sufficient strength, would undoubtedly be like sitting on a volcano, not only lacking adequate authority but also subject to scrutiny from all sides, restricting one’s freedom.

Therefore, Great Emperor Ziwei was clear that until he had absolute strength, he wouldn’t ascend to the throne, even if the opportunity arose.
