In the past, mutual accusations and struggles for power and profit all fundamentally stemmed from issues of interest. Now, with the temptation of immortality, this utmost benefit, all else must stand aside.

It was not only the Great Ming Divine Dynasty; once the Gods Sealing List was in place and all the cultivators obtained this information, all forces and numerous independent practitioners were fully motivated as well.
In the past, these forces considered sustainable development, thinking about what heritage to leave for their Sect Forces, but now, with the opportunity for immortality at hand, what greater heritage could there be than seizing a Divine Position of Immortality for their sect?
These Sect Forces brought out all their resources, beginning to strengthen their power as much as possible, hoping to achieve greater merits in the upcoming great war between the human race and the Demon Race and seize a Divine Position.
The same was true for independent practitioners. For many of them, the opportunity for immortality seemed present today; if they did not give their all now, they would inevitably regret it for a lifetime.
All the cultivators between Heaven and Earth were set in motion. Although the human race and the Demon Race had not yet started fighting, the clouds of a great war had already gathered, and the dense aura of calamity pervaded between Heaven and Earth. Everyone knew the great war was inevitable.
The Great Ming Divine Dynasty’s army began to march toward the border. The teams formed by various forces also approached the border, especially those from ancient holy lands, whose soldiers and elite Taoist warriors were incomparably fierce and emitted a terrifying aura.
Even before their arrival, countless independent practitioners had gathered at the border. Some chose to act alone, while others sought to join Wang Boan’s army.
Seeing countless powerhouses gather on the human side, the Demon Race naturally reacted. Successive Demon Race powerhouses also rushed from within the Demon Domain, with various tribes stationed at the border, preparing for the humans’ move.
At this point, on the frontier between the human race and the Demon Race, countless powerhouses converged, a great war about to erupt, seemingly only lacking a reason or an excuse.
On the back mountain of the Xuantian Sect, Daoist Xuantian wore his crown and a black-patterned Daoist robe, with mysterious light flowing in his black pupils. Behind him stood a proud black flag, waving as if it had split the chaos, delineating the Yin Yang Five Elements. This was the treasure of the Xuantian Sect, the Xuantian Banner, a Semi-Immortal Artifact evolving toward an Immortal Artifact.
True Immortals are not to be looked upon directly; even without the slightest movement, just standing there, not even the Will of Heaven and Earth would dare to descend overtly, as if giving way.
Behind Daoist Xuantian stood a young man in a Profound Daoist Robe with a noble and mild demeanor, who emitted a warm and noble aura. Even standing beside a True Immortal, he was not completely overshadowed but could still emit a radiance of his own, showing his excellence.
This was Daoist Xuantian’s disciple, the eldest senior brother of the Xuantian Sect, chosen by Daoist Xuantian as the successor to lead the Xuantian Sect after his ascension if he failed to become a True Immortal, Xuan Lingzi.
“Xuan Lingzi, you are the disciple I value the most. Since childhood, your talent has been exceptional, and your comprehension extraordinary. You’ve reached the Supreme Strong Realm in such a short time, already enough to look down upon your peers, even comparable to Shenxiao True Monarch. However, even so, the Immortal Path is difficult, and it is not easy to step onto the Immortal Path, especially given the current situation,” Daoist Xuantian slowly turned around and spoke in a deep voice, “However, this War of Sealing Gods is a very rare opportunity. If you can seize a Divine Position during this time, even if you cannot step onto the Immortal Path in the future, you can still use the Divine Position to achieve immortality.”
Xuan Lingzi’s expression changed slightly, looking at Daoist Xuantian in surprise and astonishment, and spoke, “Master, do you want your disciple to vie for this Divine Position of Immortality?”
As one of the outstanding figures of this generation in the Xuantian Immortal Sect, Xuan Lingzi rather wished to ascend the Immortal Path by his own power, as only such a powerhouse could control his own destiny.
And indeed, the Divine Position of the Gods Sealing List could grant immortality, but it also meant being subject to others, being bound by the master of the Gods Sealing List after obtaining the Divine Position.
Happiness and sorrow between people are difficult to share.
For most cultivators in this world, the opportunity for immortality is out of reach. Thus, the appearance of a Divine Position on the Gods Sealing List represents a lifeline for them; naturally, they are eager to seize this opportunity and give everything to fight for it.
However, for a small number of cultivators, their backgrounds, talents, and understanding made them aspire to tread the Immortal Path by their own strength; they did not want to rely on the Gods Sealing List to achieve immortality.
Especially for a hero like Xuan Lingzi, they were not those independent practitioners who were completely ignorant and unaware; having the support of True Immortals, Xuan Lingzi naturally knew that the immortality granted by the Gods Sealing List had its drawbacks.
To gain something, one must pay a price, having a Divine Position on the Gods Sealing List grants immortality, but one must also follow the rules of the Heavenly Court and obey the commands of the master of the Gods Sealing List.
If the master of the Gods Sealing List were Daoist Xuantian, he naturally would not mind, but the current master of the Gods Sealing List was Shenxiao True Monarch, whom, even if a True Immortal, Xuan Lingzi saw as a peer who he might stand shoulder to shoulder with in the future; why would he want to be constrained by others?
They also had their own pride and looked down on such a form of longevity. True Immortal is the most powerful existence in heaven and Earth, ruling over all, an existence supreme beyond all others. “Foolish child, there are no absolutes in this world, everything requires precautions. Without forethought, there is near worry! Indeed, a Divine Position on the Gods Sealing List is subject to others, but immortality is what qualifies you to pursue the status of True Immortal,” Daoist Xuantian said, shaking his head.
The Immortal Path is hard, even if his disciple was very excellent and exceptional, stepping into the Strongest Realm at such an age, Daoist Xuantian, being a True Immortal, knew all too well how difficult True Immortal really was.
Even when Heaven and Earth Ascension happened, leveraging the manifestation of the Original Source of Heaven and Earth, assisted by the Creation Profound Mystery, and boosted by the heritage of various forces, countless powerhouses attempted to break through to True Immortal, ultimately, only fourteen of the human race True Immortals succeeded.
Originally, he planned to expend the heritage of the Xuantian Sect to help his disciple tread the Immortal Path and sculpt another True Immortal for the Xuantian Sect.
However, this Godsealing Plan appeared, undoubtedly a great opportunity, giving these talented juniors and powerhouses a chance to vie for longevity, which was precisely the reason Pei Xuanjing’s plan gained the support of various powerhouses.
Only with the Divine Position did he qualify to tread the Immortal Path, having enough time to explore and accumulate so that he wouldn’t have regrets in the future.
Seeing a degree of disapproval from his disciple, Daoist Xuantian didn’t simply try to convince him; he said, “Regardless, as the senior brother of the Xuantian Sect, you naturally have to take up your own responsibilities, this time you will lead the Xuantian Sect in the human race’s campaign against the Demon Race!”
Some things aren’t understood by being said a thousand times but by experiencing them once. Daoist Xuantian knew his disciple had spent too long in the immortal sect and lacked true trials, not just ordinary trials.
But because of his status and position, he received countless adulations, somewhat aloof, unaware of what the real Cultivation World was like.
This was actually a flaw in this generation of cultivators; because they had easier chances for Heaven and Earth Ascension to reach the Strongest Realm than before, they lacked considerable refining and lost out on trials.
In Daoist Xuantian’s view, the current new powerhouses in the Strongest Realm possessed the realm but lacked a cultivated Dao Heart, lacking trials and significantly inferior to their predecessors.
Whether his disciple wished to tread the Immortal Path by his own strength or with the help of the longevity of the Divine Position, Daoist Xuantian felt that his Dao Heart was not yet perfected; otherwise, he wouldn’t have such an attitude.
Thus, rather than persuading more, it was better to let him personally experience the War of Sealing Gods, to witness the horrors of a racial war, to see for himself the hardships of the lower level cultivators and independent practitioners, which would benefit his future growth.
“Since the Master wishes so, then the disciple will follow the Master’s will,” Xuan Lingzi, not lacking adaptability, nodded in agreement.
“Hehe, Xuan Ling’er, you indeed take advantage and act clever!” Daoist Xuantian said with a smile, shaking his head.
“You are somewhat underestimating this Gods Sealing List; although it was crafted by we True Immortals, it is favored by the Will of Heaven and Earth, executing the heavenly duty and obtaining the Heavenly Authority. If you can master one of the top Divine Positions, even if you have not stepped into the Immortal Path, you possess unparalleled power, and even more so, if you can leverage the authority of the Divine Position you control, your power will ascend a level further, comparable to a True Immortal,” Daoist Xuantian continued before Xuan Lingzi could speak.
