Chapter 504: Chapter 452 – In front of interests, the rest are not worth mentioning.

Upon hearing Pei Xuanjing’s words, Bai Xiaosheng sighed silently.

He naturally understood Pei Xuanjing’s thoughts, and knew that although the latter’s idea sounded insane, it was indeed a grand one in reality.

However, for thousands of years, factional prejudices have deeply embedded in people’s hearts. No one is willing to reveal their precious methods for no reason, especially those that pertain to the core cultivation of their Great Dao.

Even if they could bring out a considerable number of skills borrowingly by leveraging Divine Investiture this time, prosecuting such a plan would still require considerable effort.

“No need to worry too much—I have already considered it in detail.” Pei Xuanjing wasn’t discouraged at all and seemed like he was holding a winning hand.

Bai Xiaosheng made no response to this. Since Pei Xuanjing wanted to move forward with his plans, he had no intention of stopping him. Furthermore, in the current world, no one could thwart what Pei Xuanjing wished to do.

While the two were discussing, within a mansion in the Capital city of Tiandu, a group of people, dressed in splendid silk, who were either rich or prestigious, were debating and negotiating amongst themselves.

“Gentlemen, we have discussed for half a day now. We need to determine our plan of action and whether or not we will agree to the terms. We have to make a decision.” a Spirit Realm powerhouse from the Aristocratic Alliance spoke up.

This location serves as a base for the Aristocratic Alliance in Tiandu. Those who came for the discussion today were all decision-makers of the Aristocratic Alliance—about a dozen of them. All of these individuals were Spirit Realm powerhouses, with no First-grade martial artists qualified to join in the discussions.

As of now, decades have passed since the Heaven and Earth revived, making the essence of Heaven and Earth Qi denser and denser. It’s become simpler for First-grade martial artists to break through to the Spirit Realm. Moreover, they have killed countless demonic beasts in these past few years and used these beasts to refine elixirs which aid their cultivation. This led to the number of Spirit Realm martial artists growing like bamboo shoots after a rain, surpassing five hundred by now.

However, as anticipated by Pei Xuanjing, even though the strengthening Heaven and Earth essence made cultivation easier for martial artists, the ones who yielded the most profit initially were these great powers.

Relying on their heritage and the foundation they’ve built, they had countless strong individuals. But the constraints of circumstances and limits of Heaven and Earth kept them at bay, only allowing them to exist as a form of dissuasion. Nevertheless, the revival of Heaven and Earth has lifted these shackles and allowed them to further progress their cultivation.

Among the more than five hundred Spirit Realm powerhouses around the world, about seventy percent of them originate from the various major powers or are in some way, associated with them. The rest of the individuals are from smaller forces or are Independent Practitioners who made a breakthrough by accidentally receiving heritage from the previous generation.

Today, here in Tiandu alone, the headquarters of the Aristocratic Alliance holds over a dozen Spirit Realm powerhouses. Though most of them are merely Spirit Realm Onefold powerhouses, they are still enough to suppress a region in the outside world.

They gather here today to discuss how to reply to Pei Xuanjing’s request.

‘Confer God’s position and achieve immortality.’

Such a massive temptation is not insignificant even for them, these Spirit Realm powerhouses. And what about other people?

Even though they, themselves, had broken through to the Spirit Realm and have had their lives immensely extended, they aren’t alone—they have families. How can they just forsake them?

“The other party just wants our methods, right? In my opinion, we simply give them to him.” someone nonchalantly stated.

“But these methods are our hereditary teachings, they form the essence of our clans. We can’t just leak them out casually.” someone else retorted reluctantly.

The prejudice of clan gates is heavier in comparison with Sects or Religious Institutions. They mainly rely on blood lineage to connect everyone. These inherited methods are their roots for existence—the bottom cards that ensure an unbroken line of descent.

“The world now is not what it used to be anymore. Gentlemen, the times have changed.” a Spirit Realm powerhouse spoke: “We, the aristocratic clans, may boast about our long heritage, but in fact, we all know that we’re nothing but the descendants of branches that survived the cataclysm during the Tang Dynasty. Even though we bear a significant designation, the skills we possess are not enough to support us in breaking through to the Spirit Realm. Most of us who made the breakthrough have received inheritance from some Forbidden Place or Blessed Land.”

Hearing him reveal everyone’s secret, the expressions of the Spirit Realm powerhouses present varied. Some were indifferent, some remained unchanging, but, in the end, none refuted him. The reason for this was that what he said was the truth, with no errors whatsoever.

Our-line has been severed, and the skills they currently possess can only guarantee a smooth cultivation to the peak of the First-grade, but they don’t have any real method for stepping into the Spirit Realm.

If it weren’t for this, why would they need those Divine Positions? They could simply focus more on cultivating the powerful individuals within their clans. After all, they aren’t short of resources in the present day.

“So, in my opinion, these things are outdated and do not hold much value anymore. Instead of holding on to them, it’d be better to give them to him.”

“That person managed to get to where he is today starting from an unknown foot soldier of a mere border county—he’s not an ordinary person. You all are aware of his plan. If we actively agree to help him push forward this plan, our gains will certainly exceed whatever we currently have.”

In his opinion, at this stage, the skills that they have in their possession may seem precious to ordinary martial artists. However, in the eyes of Pei Xuanjing or those who have stepped into the Spirit Realm, they aren’t considered precious at all.

Pei Xuanjing was able to make it this far and must undoubtedly have had some extraordinary opportunities or secrets. Although they aren’t strong enough to pry into this secret, they can certainly ride along with his momentum.

Now that such an opportunity presents itself, they might as well use these things to win favor with Pei Xuanjing which certainly promises substantial gains.

Hearing his words, the entire room fell into silence. However, everyone present was intrigued.

After all, according to the information that has been shared, Pei Xuanjing intended to publicize all the skills as part of his plan, including his personally cultivated “Shenxiao Heaven’s Will Skill.”

Although these people have broken through to the Spirit Realm, with a few exceptions of people with exceptional talents, most of them can only be considered as mediocrities, and they have not even established their own paths.

Now, such a powerhouse is willing to teach what he knows — this is a great fortune. It’s as if a beacon has been lighted up in the night to illuminate the path ahead.

With such an opportunity present, what they have in their possession, even if it looks precious, doesn’t amount to much.

Not just the Aristocratic Alliance, upon learning of this news from Pei Xuanjing, emotions stirred within the Demonic Cult, the Heretical Alliance, and even the Buddhism and Taoist Schools.

After all, just as Bai Xiaosheng said, in front of real benefits, nothing else mattered.
