Chapter 1163: Divine Taboos, Finding a Different Way
What will happen in three thousand years, for ordinary mortals, is enough to change nearly a hundred generations. For monks, it is not impossible that they can go from ordinary people to true immortals.
And we must know that the more than three thousand years when the Shenxiao Sect first developed, but the beginning of the entire heaven development plan, was the most reckless and the most opportunities.
In the past three thousand years, the number of monks in the Shenxiao Sect was not large, but the existence of the Patriarch allowed them to obtain more resources, not less, which also meant that they had more opportunities and more resources.
So it is completely conceivable how many strong men were born during this period of time.
It is true that he was able to rise because of special opportunities and good fortune, but what this powerful man has always guessed is that there are many powerful men within the Shenxiao Sect who are more powerful than him. They are only dedicated to practicing and pursuing the immortal way, and they have no regard for authority. I wasn’t keen, so I gave myself a chance to rise.
But that was when the benefits were not enough in the past, others were too lazy to fight, and there were still many strong people lurking low-key. Now such huge benefits are completely worth fighting for by many strong people in the Shenxiao Sect, and many hidden secrets will be revealed. Long time boss,
After all, for those strong men who are trapped in the realm of the strongest, or even the realm of the strongest overlord, although they don't like authority, they will never give up the opportunity to ascend to the True Immortal.
Therefore, they may not care about the position of the leader of the Shenxiao Sect, but it is undoubtedly the ticket to become a true immortal. As long as you sit in this position, you will definitely be able to become a true immortal.
Not to mention anything else, this alone was enough to make them completely moved.
So you can completely imagine how fierce the battle for the headmaster will be this time, and how many silent strong men will come out of the mountain.
For such a fierce battle, he is definitely qualified to participate.
"So many powerful people exist." The shock on the face of this monk at the eighth level of the spiritual realm was hard to pass away, and he didn't know how to describe it.
Monks like him are a new generation. They originally thought they already knew a lot about the power of the Shenxiao Sect, but they didn't expect that now it's just a hidden corner.
"With my father's strength, if I really stand up and say that I want to participate in the fight for the headship, then I will really be desperate and a pure clown." The most powerful man smiled at himself, and there was something in his expression. Loneliness.
For his son, he seemed quite smart in the past, but he didn't expect that he got a little lost after encountering benefits. He didn't even know how deep the water was, and he dared to get involved at will. Really It's audacious.
Some things in daily life are mixed in. With his own strength and status, coupled with the wide range of friends within the Shenxiao sect, he can also have a relationship with a certain true immortal, and several people who are comparable to true immortals. The most powerful people have some friendships and can still take care of them, that's all.
But what is this matter? This is the change of the leader of the Shenxiao Sect. It is no less than the inheritance of the throne in a mortal dynasty. It is even said that the position of the leader of the Shenxiao Sect has no authority compared to the position of a righteous god in the heaven. Not bad.
You can imagine how attractive such a position is. Even if the real immortal takes the position in person, there is no guarantee that he will be completely sure. Although it is not a threat, if the operation is not good, he will not be able to eat grapes and cause a mess. Not impossible.
Although he has some strength, if he wants to participate in such a big event, he can only do it on the sidelines. If he really declares his participation, he is really seeking death.
Although the competition for the position of leader of the Shenxiao Sect, with the presence of the ancestor, the current leader and the true immortals, there will be no power of life, but if you participate, it will be completely different.
Think about how the new king who succeeds to the throne of a mortal dynasty treats his opponents who once competed with him for the throne. Those who compete with the new headmaster will definitely be suppressed.
No one will sympathize with this, because this is the result that losers deserve. If you want to participate in anything, you will have risks and you will need to bear the corresponding consequences.
For the sake of his own authority, the newly succeeded leader may not even stop the Patriarch and many True Immortals at the beginning, as long as the other party does not go too far.
But even if they don't deliberately go too far, standing in that position and taking random shots would be difficult for them to contend with.
Looking at his father who looked lonely, the usually proud heir also looked a little gloomy. As a member of the monk family, he was blessed by his father's strength and regarded it as his own glory.
Now that he saw his father, who was supposed to be invincible in his mind, so dejected, he felt even more sympathetically, as if the sky was falling.
"Father."
But he didn't expect what the most powerful man said next, which shocked him even more.
"Well, since we have talked about it today, I will tell you everything to save you from not knowing the inside story and causing trouble." The most powerful man sighed, as if he had made some decision.
Originally, he didn't want to tell the other party some particularly important things so early, because he felt that the other party had not grown up enough, and it would not be beneficial to be exposed to these things too early.
But plans are never as good as changes. The situation is changing too fast. Such a violent storm this time cannot be avoided at all, and even I am not sure that I can escape unscathed.
Therefore, in order to prevent his offspring from being too ignorant and lacking information, which may lead to disasters, it is better to inform the other party in advance.
"My son, listen carefully!" The monk's eyes lit up, with some expectation in his heart.
You should know that he has long wanted to know those things at his level, but his father has always been unwilling to tell him, even if he begged hard.
"I'll tell you one thing, that is, the position of the headmaster can be taken by the strongest person from any background, but it is absolutely not allowed for the strong people from such a family as us to take it." The strongest said coldly.
Not to mention that his strength is not enough to fight for this position, even if his strength guarantees that he has the qualifications to participate in the competition, the final winner will be anyone, and it will definitely not be him.
His identity is destined to make it impossible to win the final victory, because he is a member of the monk family, representing the monks of the family, and their growth will be feared.
"Why is it so? Isn't our family developing very smoothly now? There is no suppression or containment at all, why is there such a restriction?" His son was a little puzzled.
As a member of the family, he did not have any agreement when walking in the Shenxiao Sect. Even if he usually had conflicts with people from the same lineage as his master and apprentice, it did not rise to such a serious level.
So he thought that his father's idea was a bit too exaggerated. After all, the atmosphere in the entire Shenxiao Sect was very open-minded, and there were iron rules left by the ancestors. The entire Shenxiao Sect was an environment where no one cared about their background, and the capable were promoted and the mediocre were demoted. Could it be that someone would go against the will of the ancestors!
"This is a rule that cannot be stated, but it is known in the hearts of many strong people." The strongest said in a deep voice.
Indeed, their family's development in the current Shenxiao Sect is not subject to any constraints. With the existence of the ancestors, all disciples in the Shenxiao Sect, as long as they show their talents, will have a relatively fair environment and will not be suppressed.
However, this is for individual cultivators in the Shenxiao Sect. As long as they are disciples of the Shenxiao Sect, they will not be suppressed. But for those in power in the Shenxiao Sect, the cultivators of the Shenxiao Sect and the family power are not comparable at all. The two are completely independent individuals.
They do not restrict the practice and rise of these disciples, but it does not mean that they will allow the family's bloodline power to continue to expand.
Although the practice has reached the current level, it is actually irrelevant which kind of inheritance they belong to.
But the inheritance in the Shenxiao Sect is ultimately the inheritance of the master and the apprentice. When the family power continues to expand, it will naturally erode the interests of some other disciples of the Shenxiao Sect, which will cause dissatisfaction among many powerful people, and they will also tacitly begin to unite and suppress them.
Although this problem only lingers among the top-level powerful people and has not spread to the many powerful people at the bottom, it is also an invisible ceiling that restricts the rise of these family forces.
They can develop and grow, and allow the powerful people with enough talent in the family to get the resources they deserve and get fair competition.
However, the many powerful people of Shenxiao Sect absolutely do not allow the waste of resources. They cannot allow those creatures who have no qualifications and understanding because of their family background to waste resources and accumulate their own cultivation realm, especially this should be used on other disciples of Shenxiao Sect.
Cultivation does not only rely on oneself, but also on one's background. If there are powerful people in the family who bless the descendants, this is not a problem.
However, this resource should come from the outside and should belong to you, not from you using your authority and power to erode other disciples of the same sect.
The inheritance of family bloodline is originally two different paths from the inheritance of master and apprentice. At the beginning, they may coexist, but if the power of this family inheritance increases, it will inevitably erode the interests of other inheritances. This is something that even the leader of the family cannot control.
Because as the leader of the family inheritance, they are the most powerful people in the family, supported by everyone, but they will also be bound by everyone and lose their freedom.
So once he sits in this position, even if the headmaster is determined to do well at the beginning, he will inevitably be eroded and bound as time goes by.
No one can really cut off love and affection. This is the way of the devil, not the way of cultivation of their Taoism.
A person who is promoted by many people to the position of headmaster, and then can ruthlessly attack the person who recommended him to the position, such a decisive and ruthless character is not what the Shenxiao Sect needs as a headmaster.
So in fact, no matter from which aspect, the family inheritance power can exist in the Shenxiao Sect, but they should not expand too much, let alone have a headmaster.
In that case, it will not only be disadvantageous to them, but also have a great impact on the development of the Shenxiao Sect. Therefore, many top masters of the Shenxiao Sect have reached a tacit understanding at the beginning and will not let this happen.
Therefore, family bloodline inheritance can happen, but it cannot be too ostentatious. Once it jumps out, it will inevitably be targeted, or even suppressed, which is not worth the loss.
"So that's it!" The eighth-level cultivator of the spiritual realm sighed, and it turned out that there was such a secret.
He even said that he also agreed with this reason. After all, if he really stood on the standpoint of Shenxiao Sect, there was no problem with this explanation. He could imagine that if he had power and status, he would unconsciously consider his own people when dividing certain interests. This was the instinct of human nature.
"Then can we only sit on the sidelines and not participate in the change of the position of the headmaster this time?" He asked unwillingly again.
In the final analysis, the change of the headmaster of Shenxiao Sect this time was a rare event. As the headmaster of Shenxiao Sect would definitely become a true immortal and live for countless years, maybe a cultivator like him who was in the eighth level of the spiritual realm could only witness this time if he did not become a true immortal. It would be a pity if he missed it.
"It doesn't matter. Although we can't be a party to compete for the position of the headmaster, it doesn't mean that we will definitely miss this opportunity. If we plan properly, we will definitely be able to gain enough benefits."
"Hmm?"
"The competition for the emperor among the mortals is not only participated by many princes. Although the civil and military officials in the court cannot seize the throne, they can also participate in it, bet on and support the prince they are optimistic about, and get rich returns."
Although they can't join in, they can also choose a strong man who may ascend to the throne of the headmaster. Whether it is cooperation or even surrender, as long as the other party can bring them enough benefits, this person actually doesn't mind at all.
And this will actually avoid many risks. After all, as long as the person you choose to support and surrender is strong enough, even if you fail to seize the throne, you don't need to be afraid of being liquidated, and you can ensure that your interests are not damaged.
After all, the wide range of the selection of the headmaster this time also determines the fierce competition. As long as you don't meet those who participate in it beyond their ability, everyone who really dares to participate in the competition for the headmaster is not a weak person.
"Then I wonder if father has already had a suitable candidate in mind?"
"There are already a few candidates, but which one to choose depends on whether they need us to join. After all, even if it is cooperation, it is never a unilateral decision." (End of this chapter)
