The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

However, these Wu Shen Jiao and Hou Tu Imperial Honors, although deeply rooted, face a lack of strong individuals. Aside from governing the Netherworld, Hou Tu Imperial Honors has numerous Mountain Gods and Earth Gods on the Divine Continent, but lacks enough manpower, having to rely on Wu Shen Jiao for support.

Yet, Wu Shen Jiao also faces a manpower shortage. Over the years, Wu Shen Jiao has been shutting its doors, unlike other top immortal sects that open their doors wide to recruit disciples. They simply cannot gather enough disciples to oversee the Nether Yin Department.

While ordinary Yin Department Netherworld Divine Positions can be managed by some Wu Shen Jiao disciples, positions like the Ten Halls of Yama, Five Ghost Emperors, and Judges, wield tremendous authority that ordinary disciples are not qualified to oversee.

For ordinary Wu Shen Jiao disciples, forcibly integrating these divine positions without enough strength not only brings no benefit but also results in erosion by the Nether Yin Department, completely cutting off their path, which is something the strong of Wu Shen Jiao do not wish to see.

Thus, their initial approach can only have these strong individuals oversee through incarnations, slowly finding suitable strong individuals to take charge of these divine positions.

Yet even after ten thousand years, the divine positions of the Ten Halls of Yama are still not fully replenished, with about half of the positions vacant, and taken by the incarnations of these Taoist Monarchs and True Immortals.

Now, the Wood Virtue Star Lord wants a venerable position of the Ten Halls of Yama, making Zhu Jiuyin curious about what exactly the other side is planning.

"It seems we have underestimated this Wood Virtue Star Lord. To rise from an independent practitioner to this point without relying on any Daoist Monarchs indeed shows he has his own trump cards," Zhu Jiuyin whispered.

The conditions from the other side have actually revealed many things; the Wood Virtue Star Lord seems to wield Wood Dao Authority, but it’s not entirely tied to it. He also has other options related to the netherworld.

It’s precisely because of this that the Wood Dao Authority is not something he cannot relinquish, and he wants to seize this opportunity to make a deal.
