Chapter 1854 - 1800— - 1801 Chaotic Situation When to Certify Tao
The current instability in the Divine Land World stems not only from the incitement and restless moves of the newly ascended Dao Lords but also more importantly from the dissatisfaction of several Imperial Honors of the Heavenly Court regarding the current distribution of interests in the Divine Land World.
Each Imperial Honor of the Heavenly Court possesses extraordinary strength and commands numerous strong followers. As many immortal sects have risen over these ten thousand years, their power has also been steadily increasing.
However, despite the strengthening of their own power, they have not received matching status and benefits and still have to be influenced by those veteran Daoist Monarchs and even allocate a portion of their benefits, which is unacceptable to several Imperial Honors.
It is precisely for this reason that they have teamed up with those newly ascended Dao Lords, wanting to leverage external forces to restructure the Divine Land World and reclaim their rightful power.
This is the real cause of the current unstable situation across heaven and earth.
As for the rumors circulating externally, the dissatisfaction of various large immortal sects and some independent practitioner True Immortals, their discontent with top immortal sects occupying interests, this is merely a superficial factor, and even these rumors may have been spread by those Imperial Honors and newly ascended Dao Lords.
Ultimately, the true power in the world is held by Dao Lords. Only Dao Lords have the qualification to stir the winds and clouds of the heavens and earth, and those large immortal sects and independent practitioner True Immortals, even if dissatisfied, have no way to even attempt anything given the gap in strength.
If not for the support behind those newly ascended Dao Lords and the indulgence of those Imperial Honors, even if these large immortal sects and independent practitioner True Immortals were discontented, they would not dare rebel.
To put it bluntly, if they choose to abide by the rules now, they can still share a portion of the benefits brought by the Heavenly Court’s expansion plan. Should they try to flip the table, they would inevitably be mercilessly purged, as these top immortal sects have the capability to replace them with a new batch of people.
In the time before the Divine Land World had awakened, both internally within the Divine Land World and in the Great Wilderness Realm, those top forces operated in this manner.
