The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 1572: Chapter 1520-1521 No Flaws, Accelerating Internal Struggle Chapter 1572: Chapter 1520-1521 No Flaws, Accelerating Internal Struggle As one of the most outstanding Supreme Strong within the Shenxiao Sect, Wan Fayi was also highly competitive among the many candidates, surrounded by numerous supporters backing his accession.

In the Shenxiao Sect, there seemed to be many eligible to inherit the position of Sect Leader, yet in reality, only a handful could truly have the opportunity and possibility to succeed.

The Shenxiao Sect housed many Supreme Strong, but those with charisma and sufficient power to assume the position were few, all remarkable like Wan Fayi, with exceptional talent and extraordinary strength.

Although, in the eyes of the higher echelons of the Shenxiao Sect and others, the position of Sect Leader didn’t necessitate great strength–just enough capability to manage the affairs of the Shenxiao Sect.

After all, those sitting in the position of Sect Leader rarely needed to act personally; most times, they didn’t need to lift a finger.

However, this was the thinking of the upper ranks. They didn’t care about this aspect, but for the middle and lower tiers of cultivators, it was entirely different.

They understood that after taking the position of Sect Leader in the Shenxiao Sect, not much strength was needed, but standing from different perspectives, they considered different things.

First, one must realize this is a transcendental world where the strong are respected. Even though Pei Xuanjing had fostered a relatively fair environment in the Shenxiao Sect, this principle couldn’t be changed.

Because the path of cultivation inevitably is filled with competition. Even a relative fairness maintains only a portion of resources; aspiring for more necessitates showcasing one’s extraordinary abilities.

Thus, within the Shenxiao Sect, while there is no discrimination against weaker cultivators, it’s inevitable that when all come together, only the strong will dominate and receive others’ support.

Therefore, after Pang Hong wished to vacate the position of Sect Leader, those who could truly step forward and qualify to contend for the position, every one of them was extraordinary and supported by countless backers.

After all, with weak strength, unable to intimidate or win over others, even with wisdom, one is destined only to serve as a consultant or military strategist, unable to wield decision-making authority.

Of course, to cultivate strong capabilities, stand out amidst such competition in the Shenxiao Sect, and gain the support of many fellow disciples and the favor of the older generation, such a person could not be mediocre or lack ingenuity.

The current Wan Fayi was one such individual; he reached his position today not only through his innate talent and strength, but also by being good at bonding with fellow disciples.

Especially given his earlier experience with Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing guiding him on the cultivation path of “All Laws Return to One,” an event legendary within the entire Shenxiao Sect.

It’s essential to understand that, as the founding Ancestral Master of the Shenxiao Sect, Pei Xuanjing nurtured the sect into such thriving success that he was deified by countless Shenxiao disciples. Even though his role in the sect’s development focused more on strategic arrangements, the practical affairs were managed by Pang Hong and others, earning immense reverence and awe from countless disciples.

Because in the Cultivation World, power itself is a charm, a magnetism that intoxicates and attracts countless people.

Indeed, Pei Xuanjing’s reputation and esteem in the Shenxiao Sect had reached an unparalleled height, revered by countless disciples, many of whom joined the sect drawn by the existence of Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing.

However, over the millennia, as Pei Xuanjing continued his cultivation, he largely stayed out of public view, appearing in person only on special occasions or manifesting incarnations, virtually inaccessible to ordinary disciples.

For the disciples of the Shenxiao Sect, their most frequent contact with Pei Xuanjing was undoubtedly at Taoist Academy lectures and major Shenxiao Sect preaching conferences, events teeming with strong figures, including True Immortals and even Supreme Overlords, hardly a time for ordinary disciples to speak.

Thus, for many disciples of the Shenxiao Sect, even advancing into the Strongest Realm, in their eyes, Ancestral Master Longevity Taoist Monarch remained an extremely mysterious and elusive figure.

Now, Wan Fayi, precisely because he was valued by the Ancestral Master at the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm and taken under personal cultivation for a period–though not formally taken as a disciple–his experience made him an exceptionally unique figure within the Shenxiao Sect, highly envied by his fellow disciples and recognized even by many True Immortals.

Thus, with such experience, coupled with his own strength, Wan Fayi stood out among his peers in the Shenxiao Sect and was considered a strong contender for the position of Sect Leader this time.

Of course, despite Wan Fayi’s strength and extensive support, it didn’t mean he was entirely confident of capturing the position of Sect Leader.

Some things are comparative; just as in the Shenxiao Sect, powerful as Wan Fayi was, he still couldn’t emerge directly as the leader and had to participate in trials to have a chance to win the position, facing equally competitive contenders.
