Chat group: Living in a fantasy world, investing in countless realms

The disciples on Jin'ao Island were quite surprised.

"In the Jie Sect, Senior Brother Duobao has always been the most respected. Why did Master entrust affairs to Zhao Gongming and Yunxiao?"

The four disciples of the Jie Sect were Duobao Daoren, Jinling Shengmu, Wudang Shengmu, and Guiling Shengmu.

Although Yunxiao and Zhao Gongming were very strong, they were not at the core of the Jie Sect and were outside the power of the Jie Sect.

The general impression of Yunxiao and Zhao Gongming is that they are strong, but they don't pay much attention to the Jie Sect, nor do they study its affairs. They don't have many friends, and they only come when their master is giving a lecture. Otherwise, they bury themselves in their cultivation.

This was simply freakish for the disciples of the Jie Sect, who were keen on forming cliques.

"Even if it wasn't Senior Brother Duobao, it should have been Senior Sister Jinling or Senior Sister Wudang!"

"Stop making a fuss. Since Master has issued a decree, we should obey it."

“That’s true. Senior Sister Yunxiao and Senior Brother Zhao Gongming are among the top cultivators in our Jie Sect, which is enough to convince everyone.”

The supporters around the four disciples were somewhat puzzled.

However, the other disciples had complete faith in Tongtian's decree.

During this period, the Jie Sect was still surrounded by powerful figures, and the traitors within the sect had no other intentions.

On the surface, the Jie Sect still appears to be a united front.

The imperial edict is extremely useful.

"Brother, what should we do?" Yunxiao watched Tongtian leave, his expression turning speechless. "Master has left this mess to us."

In the past, Zhao Gongming wouldn't have thought much of it, nor would he have considered the Jie Sect to be such a mess.

As for the Jie Sect, strength is all that matters.

However, having read Investiture of the Gods, Zhao Gongming could easily spot the flaws in the Jie Sect.

The area is rife with factions, acts recklessly, and is a mixed bag of good and bad...

All of these factors mean that even without external forces, it is highly likely to split up on its own in the future.

"This is indeed a mess!" Zhao Gongming nodded slightly. "However, with our strength, it's not impossible to sort it out. Let's summon Senior Brother Duobao and the others for a meeting; the Jie Sect can't continue to deteriorate like this."

“Brother, relying solely on force is probably not the right approach,” Yunxiao shook his head. “We need to find a better way out for our fellow disciples.”

Not everyone is qualified to become a saint.

Not everyone has the idea of ​​becoming a saint.

The myriad immortals of the Jie Sect actually had many very simple ideas—freedom and ease, or worldly power.

To ensure that the numerous disciples of the Jie Sect are united, the resettlement method cannot be generalized.

If someone wants to live a carefree life, but you make them a god and subject them to constraints, they will naturally be unhappy; if someone wants power, but you make them retreat into seclusion, they will naturally not be convinced.

“That’s true.” Zhao Gongming nodded.

He is also a virtuous cultivator, not someone who would only act recklessly when faced with problems. He respects the opinions of his fellow disciples, and this is something he naturally has to consider.

Yunxiao's expression was subtle: "Many people in the group have their own opinions. Perhaps I should ask them first?"

"Ask the others?" Zhao Gongming's eyes flickered. "Alright."

Yunxiao nodded and closed his eyes to communicate with the people in the chat group.

Zhao Gongming sighed inwardly, "It seems my proud and arrogant sister has fallen into this trap. Saying she wanted to chat with everyone is less true than wanting to say a few more words to Daojun."

After all, he was a powerful Grand Luo Golden Immortal, capable of calculating many things, and his methods were far beyond those of ordinary immortals and gods.

In the chat group, apart from Dao Jun, the strongest is only at the Quasi-Saint realm. What qualifications do they have to give advice to this world?

It could be said that Yunxiao's thoughts were as clear as lice on a bald man's head.

Although he guessed Yunxiao's thoughts, Zhao Gongming had no intention of interfering.

The Three Immortals of Sanxiao have long been capable of handling things on their own, so even as their elder brother, he wouldn't say much about such matters.

Chat group.

Yunxiao: "Now that Master has entrusted the affairs of the Jie Sect to my brother and me, does anyone have any ideas on how to improve the Jie Sect?"

Su Xiaoxiao: "Make the Jie Sect better? Uh... that's difficult. The Jie Sect has a grand presence with thousands of immortals paying homage. However, there are quite a few of them with low moral character. As long as these people exist, the Jie Sect's reputation will never be good."

Umaru: "But it's impossible to just clean house directly. After all, the doctrines of the Jie Sect are there, aren't they?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Why not? The Jie Sect only said to seize a sliver of hope, not that they couldn't establish sect rules. All we need to do is establish a sect rule to restrain these people. Those who follow the rules will enjoy the benefits of the Jie Sect, and those who don't will be expelled. After they're expelled, whether they live or die is none of the Jie Sect's business."

Yunxiao: "Sect rules? That's fine too."

Zhang Taixuan: "Of course, this method can only deal with some minor characters and clear out some low-level members of the Jie Sect who do not abide by the sect rules. It cannot break the situation in Investiture of the Gods where one person is defeated and another Jie Sect immortal is invited to kill all the immortals."

Umaru: "The disciples of the Jie Sect are all of the same ilk. This is indeed the most troublesome thing. Even if we use a strategy of sowing discord, it probably won't work."

Su Xiaoxiao: "??? Sowing discord? What are you thinking, Xiaomai? With this tactic, we won't even have to wait for the three sects to target each other; the Jie Sect will start fighting amongst themselves."

Hu Yifei: "Indeed, this is a terrible idea."

Yunxiao: "Sowing discord is definitely not going to work. Daojun, what should we do?"

Zhang Taixuan: "What was the origin of the Investiture of the Gods?"

Yunxiao: "Are the various sects targeting the Heavenly Court because it lacks a deity to govern the Three Realms, and is Hongjun plotting something?"

Zhang Taixuan: "It seems you've thought this through very clearly. The Investiture of the Gods can be delayed, but it can't be eliminated. No matter how good the method, we'll still have to fight it out in the end. The Jie Sect is definitely a thorn in Hongjun's side."

Yunxiao: "Then please tell me, Daoist, how to delay the Investiture of the Gods?"

Even after breaking through to the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm, Yunxiao still had no confidence in fighting against Hongjun.

The other party is too strong.

The first sage in the world!

The patriarch of the Xuanmen sect!

Those who are in harmony with the Way of Heaven!

All of this demonstrates that Hongjun's strength is absolutely extraordinary, and she could not possibly contend with him simply because she had just broken through to the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm.

Zhang Taixuan: "It's actually quite simple to delay the Investiture of the Gods. The Heavenly Court is short of gods, so you can let those of good character from the Jie Sect take up positions in the Heavenly Court. With gods, what's the point of the so-called Investiture of the Gods? Even if the three sects want to stir up trouble, the scale of the battle won't be too large."

Su Xiaoxiao: "Although achieving godhood through physical means is very free, there are also limitations, right? If that happens, wouldn't the Jie Sect be completely finished? At that time, they are very likely to be controlled by Hongjun."

Zhang Taixuan: "If Hongjun wanted to control them, would he need the Investiture of the Gods? You underestimate the sages."

Su Xiaoxiao: "Since Hongjun is so powerful, why did he use the Investiture of the Gods to weaken the Jie Sect? Logically speaking, as the controller of the Heavenly Dao, shouldn't the Investiture of the Gods world be his absolute domain?"

Zhang Taixuan: "What is the Jie Sect? It's the one that has vanished. Don't you understand yet? The Jie Sect is the last unstable factor in the Investiture of the Gods world, and also the final hurdle for him to overcome in his merging with the Dao. Hongjun is not yet the absolute ruler of the Investiture of the Gods world; his mind is entirely focused on merging with the Dao. He won't appear unless something major happens, and he certainly won't come out just because a few disciples of the Jie Sect have gained some power in the Heavenly Court. There is still a need for scheming!"

Yunxiao: "...The final hurdle? No wonder Daojun said this tribulation was unavoidable, only to be postponed. The struggle for the Dao is a fight to the death! Hongjun cannot retreat, nor can the Jie Sect!"

Zhang Taixuan: "That's right. If you're really worried about the Investiture of the Gods, Yunxiao, you and Zhao Gongming can take it and snatch it for me to see."

Yunxiao: "Isn't this dangerous?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Don't worry, I'm not very confident in suppressing Hongjun. It's just the Investiture of the Gods; how could it possibly overturn the Heavenly Prince?"

Yunxiao: "Then thank you very much, Daojun."

Zhang Taixuan: "Once you disciples become gods in the Heavenly Court, you can take advantage of the delay in the Investiture of the Gods to increase your strength."

Zhang Taixuan: "On the other hand, those who become disciples of the gods must be carefully selected (by Zhao Liaohao), and must be absolutely loyal to the Jie Sect. They also have another task!"

Yunxiao: "A mission?"

Zhang Taixuan: "The Heavenly Court, as the institution that governs heaven and earth, wields considerable power. Those who become gods must strive to firmly grasp this power in their own hands. This will increase their chances of victory when they confront Hongjun in the future."

Su Xiaoxiao: "The Heavenly Court was all separated by Hongjun. The Heavenly Court's little power is not very useful against Hongjun, is it?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Sometimes, the last straw that breaks the camel's back is very useful, though you might not see it normally. In the real battle, that last bit of power might be the key to victory. More importantly, it's about giving the disciples of the Jie Sect something to do and a sense of mission. Otherwise, if they just laze around in the Heavenly Court, these originally well-behaved disciples will become useless over time."

Zhang Taixuan: "The Tongtian Sect Leader entrusted you with managing the Jie Sect, but all the disciples have been crippled. Can you be at ease with that?"

Su Xiaoxiao: "Brother Taixuan, are you still not confident in suppressing Hongjun?"

Zhang Taixuan: "We've never fought, so naturally we don't know who's stronger. What if we make a boast and then get proven wrong?"

Su Xiaoxiao: "Brother Taixuan, aren't you good at predicting the secrets of heaven? Does that mean it's no longer useful?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Heavenly secrets can be calculated, but don't believe them blindly. You can calculate them, but others can too, and they can confuse heavenly secrets. How do you know that what you've calculated is the truth, and not a trap someone has set for you?"

Ye Hei: "That's true. Su Xiaoxiao is fine in her own world, where there is no one with deeper cultivation than you, so she rarely makes mistakes in divination. But it's different for Dao Lords. Facing the powerful beings of all the heavens and myriad worlds, who knows if there will be any problems with divination?"

Su Xiaoxiao: "Is that so? I thought I'd see Brother Taixuan fight Hongjun!"

Yunxiao: "Miss Su, do you have such a strong opinion about Hongjun?"

Su Xiaoxiao: "Isn't he a bad person?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Bad people? They don't exist. The Jie Sect and Hongjun are just fighting for their Dao. There's no right or wrong, only a contest of the Great Dao. If you were in their shoes, and you wanted to control the world, wouldn't you also settle accounts with the sect that hindered your control?"

Su Xiaoxiao: "Controlling the world's obstacles? That makes sense. But don't worry about that for now, I can't control the world yet."
