Chapter 846: The Dao Struggle, Myriad Laws Immortal Emperor

“The Old Days Graveyard now is no ordinary small world.”

Facing Xie Lanyin before him, facing this sixth-rank Void Refinement cultivator, Lu Hengzhang remained unhurried and perfectly calm as he said, “This small world of the Old Days Graveyard first experienced a struggle between immortals, then had half its territory occupied by the Labyrinth Realm, and its spatial structure has been in disorder for years.”

“By now, half of the Dimensional Structure of the Old Days Graveyard is in the hands of that Deity Transformation brat Zhang Yu.”

In Lu Hengzhang’s view, a cultivator like Zhang Yu, who had stepped into Deity Transformation less than a year ago, was absolutely a Deity Transformation brat.

Only cultivators like him, who had cultivated in Deity Transformation for many years, were qualified to be addressed as Deity Transformation Ancestor by lower cultivators.

Lu Hengzhang continued, “How could a small world like this possibly be called impregnable?”

“With Zhang Yu’s cultivation, what would be strange about him making a mistake during the process of repairing the Dimensional Structure in a small world like this? And what does that have to do with us?”

Xie Lanyin listened to Lu Hengzhang and slowly said, “You people… want to push this onto Zhang Yu?”

Lu Hengzhang said lightly, “Dao Lord Xie, you cannot speak recklessly.”

“You are responsible for the economy and investment attraction in the Administrative Committee, while I am responsible for cultivation technique review in the Imperial Law Pavilion. What does the Dimensional Structure of the Old Days Graveyard development zone have to do with us?”

“Even if this blows up all the way to the heavens, the primary person responsible is still Zhang Yu. If anyone is to be questioned, it should be him.”

Xie Lanyin stared fixedly at Lu Hengzhang before her and said word by word, “Just how far have you gone? What immortal dao technology did you use?”

To destroy the Dimensional Structure of a small world, Xie Lanyin believed that either extremely cutting-edge immortal dao technology had been used, or an immortal had acted directly.

Xie Lanyin wanted to know just how much power and resources the innate dao lineage had invested this time, and… whether there was still any chance to stop it. Whether it could be repaired.

Lu Hengzhang merely smiled faintly and said, “Dao Lord Xie, is it you who wants to know this, or Heavenly Lord Bai?”

Lu Hengzhang also knew that behind Xie Lanyin stood Bai Gusheng, an ascension candidate. He likewise wanted to know whether Bai Gusheng already knew about the situation here, and what the other party’s attitude was.

Xie Lanyin said coldly, “Is there a difference?”

Lu Hengzhang said, “It would be best if you yourself did not know. Some shit… weighs less than four taels before it is pulled out, but once it is pulled out, I’m afraid even a thousand Demon-Kin outsourcing workers might not be able to eat it all.”

“You only need to know one thing.”

Lu Hengzhang said word by word, “Based on my observations, this collapse is unprecedented. No one should even think of stopping it.”

“Anyone who tries to stop it will only sever their own immortal path.”

After the connection was cut, Xie Lanyin did not speak for a long time, while her mind began thinking furiously.

At the same time, in her observations, more and more thoughts were descending toward the boundary of the development zone. More and more people had already discovered those spatial fissures that were constantly splitting open and spreading.

After pondering for a long time, Xie Lanyin finally sent a message to Kurong Tongzi.

…

Along the boundary of the Labyrinth Realm, black cracks were rapidly expanding one after another, tearing all matter they touched into powder.

Seen from afar, it was like an ugly scar was continuously spreading across the earth of the Old Days Graveyard.

At the same time, a massive number of thoughts crossed the Spiritual Realm and projected here, observing the data within from every angle.

It was not even limited to this place. Countless Soul Cultivators and outsourcing workers had been dispatched all across the Old Days Graveyard, all of them observing and collecting the relevant spatial data.

Inside the office of the Administrative Committee, the seventh-rank Tribulation Transcendence cultivator, Chairman Xiao Yunhe… had messages wildly flashing one after another before him.

At this moment, he was wholeheartedly reviewing data and assessing risk. Every moment, he was exchanging an enormous amount of information with the Soul Cultivators and outsourcing workers under him.

“Spatial risk level seven…”

“Conventional methods can no longer stop spatial turbulence from eroding the small world…”

Xiao Yunhe knew that so-called spatial turbulence was a disaster formed after spatial structure ruptured. It would completely devour and destroy any matter it eroded.

“At most eight hours. The spatial turbulence will be enough to swallow more than half of the Old Days Graveyard, drown everything, and trigger a severe collapse of the entire small world.”

After obtaining this result, Xiao Yunhe’s first choice… was to seal off the news.

Could the Old Days Graveyard still be saved?

Xiao Yunhe was not certain, so he had to consider the worst possible outcome.

“Assuming the worst result as the premise, and considering the possibility that the entire Old Days Graveyard may collapse, we must do everything possible to reduce the sect’s asset losses.”

Xiao Yunhe also understood that the entrance and exit of the Old Days Graveyard had limited spatial transmission capacity. Once unrest was triggered and a panicked mass escape took place, transportation efficiency would drop.

“Even if evacuation is necessary, there must still be an order of the valuable before the cheap.”

How could losses be reduced most effectively? Naturally, before the Old Days Graveyard collapsed, things had to be moved away in order from expensive to cheap.

In terms of materials, the expensive went first, and the cheap went later.

In terms of personnel, that meant leaders went first, lower cultivators went later, outsourcing workers brought up the rear, and Soul Cultivators held their posts until the final moment.

After all, the higher the rank… the more expensive they were to the sect. Leaders were the sect’s precious wealth.

Xiao Yunhe thought to himself, “It is not easy for the sect to cultivate a leader, after all.”

“And I am the highest-ranked existence in the current development zone. That means I am the most expensive and most valuable leader.”

“When a crisis occurs, I ought to lead by example. To protect the sect’s assets, I should be the first to evacuate.”

And so… all kinds of materials under Xiao Yunhe’s name were swiftly transported away. Not even a single physical body was left behind. Only his primordial spirit remained, continuing to remotely direct work through his thoughts.

At the same time, under his power and authority, within the Spiritual Realm of the entire Old Days Graveyard, countless pieces of information released by countless people were forcibly cut off.

All news related to spatial fissures and spatial turbulence was completely sealed away.

Then Xiao Yunhe began arranging for the sect’s other important assets to evacuate with priority.

Not long after, at the entrance and exit of the Old Days Graveyard, a long queue had already formed without anyone noticing, and large quantities of sect assets were transported out.

The matter caused some unrest. Some Soul Cultivators, outsourcing workers, and low-level sect affairs officers stationed permanently in the Old Days Graveyard were all wondering what had happened.

Feng Tingting sent a message in the Virtual Task Group: Photo. Why is it suddenly so jammed? The corpse parts being shipped out are all stuck on the road?

Ye Xingli: Every unit suddenly started transporting materials outward. The materials we just bought are also stuck at the portal.

Facing the growing confusion among more and more people, Xiao Yunhe quickly issued an announcement, indicating that there was no problem at all and that this was merely routine material turnover. For the time being, he suppressed public opinion.

Yu Xinghan: Did you see the announcement? It should just be a normal transportation peak. It’ll be fine after we wait a bit.

After soothing everyone, Yu Xinghan felt a strange thought rise in his heart. “Where is Zhang Yu? Usually at a time like this, he would come out and send messages.”

The next wave to learn the truth would be the leaders of the various units inside the Old Days Graveyard.

They would receive the news one after another according to rank, cultivation, and assets, then begin transporting their respective magical treasures, physical bodies, backup physical bodies… out one by one.

But their primordial spirits, divine souls, and thoughts would continue to remain behind. Only when the matter became irreversible would they leave the Old Days Graveyard through the Spiritual Realm.

In the Myriad Laws Sect, within the Ghost Letter Department of the Imperial Law Pavilion, Minister Qin was directing numerous sect affairs officers to transport his belongings out one by one.

Facing his subordinates’ questions, he soothed them by saying, “I happen to be replacing a batch of equipment, so I am first moving the old things out of the Old Days Graveyard.”

“But you do not need to worry. My primordial spirit and divine soul will remain here and continue presiding over the work.”

“Remember to keep in contact with me through the Spiritual Realm.”

Deputy Minister Jiang Xunyi found him and asked in confusion, “Minister, what exactly happened?”

Minister Qin shook his head. “I don’t know the specific situation either, but I estimate you will also be notified to evacuate soon. Make preparations as quickly as possible, and remember not to reveal the news, lest it trigger panic.”

…

Time turned back slightly, to when the evacuation plan had just begun.

Inside a Spiritual Realm conference room, a meeting related to the life and death of the entire Old Days Graveyard was underway.

“This spatial rupture occurred at the boundary of the Labyrinth Realm.”

Under acceleration of more than a hundred times, Xie Lanyin was rapidly explaining the current situation.

“That was once the position where the Labyrinth Realm’s chaotic space… connected with normal space.”

“Now that the spatial structure there has ruptured, it has triggered spatial-base embrittlement in the Old Days Graveyard. Spatial turbulence is surging in endlessly. I fear that in less than half a day, it will swallow more than half of the Old Days Graveyard.”

Xie Lanyin looked toward Zhang Yu and shouted furiously, “Zhang Yu, as vice chairman of the Administrative Committee, you are in charge of land and construction, and all along, you have also been responsible for repairing the Dimensional Structure.”

“Now that such a major safety incident has occurred… you cannot escape blame!”

“Countless enterprises in the Old Days Graveyard have halted production, countless construction sites have stopped work, and the entire small world is on the verge of collapse. You should bear all the losses here.”

“I will report this to Heavenly Court and to the sect, and have you punished!”

Under the Spiritual Realm’s frantic acceleration, after Xie Lanyin finished her barrage, she had originally wanted to watch Zhang Yu turn dull and stupid, unable to talk back.

But unexpectedly, with the support of the computation pool, Zhang Yu remained calm and composed as he said, “Vice Chairman Xie! Please stop spraying people with shit in your mouth. This accident absolutely did not originate from me. What exactly happened will only be known after an investigation.”

Chairman Xiao Yunhe on the other side said, “Although I have already reported the situation to Heavenly Court and the sect, the higher-ups are still discussing it, and we cannot do nothing.”

“Vice Chairman Zhang, just how much responsibility you bear here, and how you will be punished, will naturally be investigated later.”

“But now that the spatial collapse has already begun, as the holder of an immortal inheritance, you cannot shirk responsibility in this matter.”

“Zhang Yu, I order you to take responsibility for remedying the spatial fissures from this point onward. You must do everything in your power to stop the spatial collapse! You absolutely cannot allow the countless assets and countless living beings of the Old Days Graveyard to suffer the slightest loss.”

Xiao Yunhe stared fixedly at Zhang Yu and said, “If you fail and cause the collapse of the entire small world, then you will be a sinner to the tune of hundreds of billions. Even going bankrupt for a hundred lifetimes would not be enough for you to repay it! No one should even think of protecting you.”

Not long after the meeting ended, Zhang Yu had already arrived at the location where the spatial fissures were spreading.

Looking at the scene before him, Zhanxian sighed and said, “An extremely severe spatial collapse. I fear it has already damaged the foundation of the entire Old Days Graveyard. Ordinary methods can no longer save it.”

“If we forcibly repair it… if we fail, it may trigger a secondary collapse and damage the Central Pole Heaven on the other end of the small world.”

Zhanxian continued, “And this process is extremely dangerous. With the slightest carelessness, if you are swallowed by spatial turbulence, your life will be at risk.”

Fu Ji snorted coldly and said, “It is precisely because they know it cannot be saved, because they know taking action would only waste assets and power for nothing, and might even trigger even greater destruction, and because there is danger to life, that Xiao Yunhe and the others are forcing us to act one by one. They just want to dump the blame onto us.”

“Heh. If it can’t be saved, then it was Zhang Yu’s work error. If it is saved, then it was the chairman’s proper command and discerning eye for talent.”

“But what is going on above? Something like this has happened, so why has no one come down to stop it?”

“Could it be that the Ten Major Sects are still wrangling with each other, seeing who will be the first to pay and send people to fix it?”

…

Deep within the Spiritual Realm.

Xie Lanyin looked respectfully at Kurong Tongzi before her, waiting for him to bring Heavenly Lord Bai Gusheng’s intention.

Kurong Tongzi nodded toward Xie Lanyin and said, “Your performance this time was not bad. You did not randomly conceal anything. Heavenly Lord is very satisfied, and knows that you are still loyal to Heavenly Lord and loyal to the Whitebone Cult.”

Xie Lanyin hurriedly bowed and said, “Many thanks to Lord Kurong for passing on the message.”

Xie Lanyin: 100,000 immortal coins transfer.

Your transfer has been accepted.

Kurong Tongzi smiled, then continued, “Heavenly Lord already knows about the matter. From now on, you will obediently stay here and remotely direct the work in the Old Days Graveyard.”

“As for the matter of the spatial collapse, there is no need to concern yourself with it.”

Xie Lanyin’s gaze sharpened as she said, “With Zhang Yu’s cultivation, I fear he cannot save the Old Days Graveyard. If the entire small world collapses, I’m afraid…”

Kurong Tongzi flicked his hand and said lightly, “If it cannot be saved, then do not save it.”

Xie Lanyin’s gaze sharpened again as she said, “But the time is too short. I fear many cultivators and much equipment will not have time to evacuate. If that happens, it will deal a serious blow to the Soul Cultivator industry…”

Kurong Tongzi said, “One person dying is only a number. If ten thousand, a hundred thousand people die in one breath, would that not be a million excellent raw materials?”

Xie Lanyin’s heart stirred. Normally, if they recruited Soul Cultivators or purchased Soul Cultivators, it might cost quite a bit of money. But right now, with a natural disaster descending and the spatial gates’ transport capacity limited, many people, in order to survive, could only become Soul Cultivators and evacuate through the Spiritual Realm.

Kurong Tongzi continued, “I have already discussed it together with the Netherworld and Heavenly Demon factions, as well as Heavenly Court.”

“When the time comes, we will purchase them all at the unified lowest price… convert them all into Soul Cultivators, and take them away.”

Xie Lanyin said, “We save them, and we still have to give them money? We are not making them pay?”

Kurong Tongzi said sternly, “We are not some ancient demonic path. This is a normal acquisition, not robbery.”

Then he explained, “This batch of people will die because of this special natural disaster, not because they have been driven to the end of the road and can only sell their lives. Their first death history will be excellent, and their quality after becoming Soul Cultivators will inevitably be superior to those of the past. Letting them maintain their immortal dao potential means they will certainly create greater returns in the future.”

Xie Lanyin nodded repeatedly at this, while inwardly thinking, “Then this Soul Cultivator performance… for the next period of time, I’m afraid it won’t fall, but rise instead.”

Kurong Tongzi continued, “I calculated it. The number of Soul Cultivators created in one breath this time is enough to make up for the shortfall from a period of halted production.”

Xie Lanyin nodded slightly, understanding that as long as there was no shortfall, as long as the profits could still be distributed, then Heavenly Lord Bai’s authority and assets would not be damaged, and he would still be able to charge toward the ascension selection.

Thinking of this, Xie Lanyin could not help but admire him. “Using death to combine with evacuation, resolving both dilemmas on their own. Truly, this is a fine method of governance.”

“However, what about that Artifact Spirit faction? Are we really going to let them off so lightly? Are we just going to watch Zhang Yu take the blame?”

Thinking of Lu Hengzhang’s appearance, Xie Lanyin could not help saying, “Wouldn’t that be like kneeling down and eating shit?”

Although Xie Lanyin also greatly disliked Zhang Yu, toward someone like Lu Hengzhang, who had dragged her into destroying a realm and drowning a zone, she clearly disliked him even more.

Kurong Tongzi sneered. “Of course it is not that simple. The struggle between dao lineages has already reached a critical moment.”

Kurong Tongzi’s gaze crossed the Spiritual Realm, as though he could already see the countless living beings in the Old Days Graveyard.

“Let this man-made disaster serve as a sacrifice. They want chaos? Then let it be chaos enough to make heaven collapse and earth split.”

“Once the entire Old Days Graveyard has been sacrificed, it will be time for the reckoning.”

“When that time comes, we will squeeze out this Kunxu abscess known as the Artifact Spirit dao lineage.”

…

“Madness. This is truly madness.”

Inside a Spiritual Realm cave estate, Bu Yingshu’s father, the level-ten sect affairs officer of the Myriad Laws Immortal Clan, the Ascension-realm cultivator Bu Yuangui, sighed and said, “At its peak, the Old Days Graveyard involved an annual output value of over a hundred billion. No matter how they evacuate, the remaining assets are still priceless, and now they are just burning it all.”

Beside him, Bu Yingshu said incredulously, “Father, according to what you’re saying, the higher-ups… are going to abandon the Old Days Graveyard?”

Bu Yuangui explained, “Inside the Old Days Graveyard, our Myriad Laws Sect does not have much industry anyway. Why bother saving it?”

“Even if we spare no effort to save it, will that not still benefit the other sects?”

“On the other hand, if the Old Days Graveyard is completely gone, then there must be a New Days Graveyard. When the time comes, the Soul Cultivator industry will be thoroughly reorganized, and that will be a perfect opportunity for our Myriad Laws Sect to take control.”

Bu Yingshu nodded thoughtfully, but then she suddenly thought of Zhang Yu and hurriedly asked, “Then what about Zhang Yu?”

Bu Yuangui said lightly, “He is the holder of Ying Ni’s inheritance and the person in charge of the development zone’s Dimensional Structure. Now that such a major problem has occurred, he naturally has to bear responsibility.”

Hearing this, Bu Yingshu’s brow abruptly furrowed, and she said, “How can that be allowed? Father, can you save him? Can you take him out of this?”

When Bu Yuangui heard this, he almost laughed from anger. He said, “My good daughter, we are in Kunxu, not the Bu Family Ruins. At minimum, there are losses of over a hundred billion immortal coins. You want me to help him? Am I supposed to take the burden for him?”

Bu Yingshu frowned, but in her heart, she rapidly began calculating accounts.

“Zhang Yu is helping me continue improving my talent. In the future, once I take charge of the Myriad Laws Immortal Clan, what I earn back will be far more than a hundred billion.”

Bu Yingshu said confidently, “Then let us do it this way, Father. I will pay you back this money in the future.”

This time, Bu Yuangui truly laughed from anger. “Get lost.”

Bu Yingshu said, “Isn’t it just over a hundred billion immortal coins? Your daughter has now awakened a talent that shocks the world. Why would I fear being unable to earn this bit of money in the future? I’ll pay you back triple when the time comes!”

Bu Yuangui pointed at Bu Yingshu, but seeing her completely serious expression, he finally gave a long sigh and said, “This is not only a matter of money.”

…

“This is a sign that the struggle between dao lineages has entered a white-hot stage.”

Bu Yingshu looked at Zhang Yu before her and said, “According to my analysis, there is an eighty-to-ninety percent chance that the innate dao lineage is behind this.”

“And for them to do something this insane, it must mean the Artifact Spirit dao lineage has reached a critical moment.”

Zhang Yu looked at Bu Yingshu’s projection and quietly listened to her analysis, while inwardly thinking, “Has the Myriad Laws Sect decided to stand by and do nothing?”

“And the Soul Cultivator factions of the other sects not only refuse to save it, they also intend to use this great disaster to harvest the lower levels and earn massive profits.”

“They even want to magnify this disaster and turn around to liquidate the Artifact Spirit dao lineage?”

Zhang Yu sighed and said, “The immortals… will not act either?”

While watching Bu Yuangui’s recording, Bu Yingshu said lightly, “It is nothing but a tiny Old Days Graveyard. What the immortals hold in their hearts are Kunxu’s countless trillions of living beings, and the supreme dao lineages from ancient times to the present.”

As Zhang Yu listened to Bu Yingshu’s narration, he also seemed to be thinking.

Fu Ji said, “Artifact Spirits cannot stop. Whichever family stops will fall behind. But they also need checks and balances, and they need to be beaten down.”

“To the higher-ups of the Myriad Laws Sect, the main losses of the Old Days Graveyard belong to the other sects. They can instead use the other sects’ losses this time to beat down and check the Artifact Spirit faction, and can also take advantage of the situation to enter and control the Soul Cultivator industry.”

At the same time, Bu Yingshu looked at Zhang Yu’s silent appearance and thought Zhang Yu was worried about bearing responsibility this time.

So while helping Zhang Yu pay his fines, Bu Yingshu comforted him, “This time, you will have to shoulder some infamy. But once the Artifact Spirit faction is liquidated, I will come help clear your name. When the time comes, I will definitely make you glorious and impressive.”

Seeing that Zhang Yu still did not speak, Bu Yingshu’s tone became softer and softer, as though she were comforting an internet-famous cat that refused to properly film videos.

“Little Yu, you do not need to worry. I have already analyzed this matter carefully.”

Zhang Yu probed, “Dao Lord Bu, you didn’t have Tianwen Xing analyze it, did you?”

Bu Yingshu’s brow tightened. She had just wanted to slap Zhang Yu, but thinking that he was about to suffer next, she endured her anger and continued consoling him. She treated it as being scratched once by this stressed little pet.

“I listened to my father…” Bu Yingshu said seriously, “I discussed it together with my father. After all, you are the holder of an immortal inheritance, and the Labyrinth Realm left behind by Ying Xintian is not the only one. At most, the higher-ups will confiscate your family property and demote you for a few years. In the future, they will definitely put you back to use.”

“You do not need to be afraid either. During the time you are demoted, I will support you.”

Bu Yingshu laughed inwardly. In her view, Zhang Yu being demoted was actually a good thing.

“Hmph. This way, useless Zhang Yu will no longer have to touch dangerous places, and I will not have to rack my brains to protect him anymore.”

“For the next few years, I will lock him up and squeeze him dry completely, turning him into fuel for improving my talent.”

Thinking of this, Bu Yingshu reminded him again, “So remember this. Do not try to save the spatial collapse of the Old Days Graveyard.”

“If you succeed in saving it, no one will thank you. If you fail, your crimes will be compounded. When the time comes, it will not be as simple as a fine and a demotion.”

After this series of reminders, once she made Zhang Yu remember it firmly, Bu Yingshu finally left at ease.

Looking at Bu Yingshu’s disappearing figure, Zhang Yu sighed. “This person really does not know how to comfort people.”

Fu Ji said anxiously, “Confiscating family property. Does that mean all the things in our grotto-heaven will be seized? We worked so hard to earn those!”

Zhang Yu did not speak. He silently looked at the spatial fissures continuously expanding before him, then raised his head to look not far away, at the urban district inside the Old Days Graveyard that was gradually growing restless.

Large numbers of sect leaders had already taken assets of all kinds and transformed into streaks of divine light as they departed, rising like meteors one after another and leaving this dangerous place before them.

Meanwhile, the many lower cultivators were still working as usual, knowing nothing about the approaching disaster.

At this moment, Zhang Yu seemed already able to see the future scene of countless people dying beneath this man-made disaster.

Just as Zhang Yu’s thoughts surged, his gaze shifted. Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure.

Boom!

As the Upper Yang Radiance Deity suddenly activated, streams of blazing light surged from Zhang Yu’s back. He had already shot out like lightning and caught up to that figure.

The giant corpse who was watching the spatial turbulence turned his head, looked at Zhang Yu, and said, “Little friend, long time no see.”

Zhang Yu said, “Senior, you…”

The giant corpse smiled faintly and said, “The people watching over me ran away, so I came out for a casual stroll to look at the scenery before this small world collapses. This is not something one sees often.”

Zhang Yu said, “Senior, do you also think the Old Days Graveyard can no longer be saved?”

The giant corpse said lightly, “Let us go. Since we have met, let us enter your grotto-heaven and talk.”

After they arrived inside the grotto-heaven, the giant corpse said, “The future of the Old Days Graveyard has been affected by games among the upper levels. And the fact that those above would not even hesitate to destroy a small world shows that the dao struggle has already reached a white-hot stage.”

“But all upper-level games, all dao struggles, ultimately originate from the Immortal Emperor.”

He looked at Zhang Yu and said, “How do you think this Myriad Laws Immortal Emperor of your Myriad Laws Sect is thinking?”

Zhang Yu said, “The Artifact Spirit dao lineage… he wants it. The Soul Cultivator dao lineage… he wants that too. Industrial interests… he also wants those.”

The giant corpse laughed. “Indeed, with this commotion, there are many benefits for the Myriad Laws Sect. But if your gaze is limited only to this Old Days Graveyard, limited only to the two great dao lineages of Artifact Spirits and Soul Cultivators, then you have rather underestimated him.”

“This Myriad Laws Immortal Emperor of yours refined qi at eight, reached Deity Transformation at ten, and ascended at fifteen. After enduring silently for many years, he seized the supreme dao lineage in one stroke. He is the greatest immortal talent I have ever seen in my life, a gift unmatched through all eternity.”

“In his eyes, there are absolutely not only the mere two dao lineages of Artifact Spirits and Soul Cultivators.”

Hearing this, Zhang Yu seemed to realize something. “Could it be for the sake of… stability?”

“Correct.” The giant corpse said with satisfaction, “In this dao struggle, although some people profited, from the overall perspective, the losses still outweigh the gains. This has broken the bottom line.”

“As a result, the retaliation from the Soul Cultivator faction will certainly become even more brutal. And once this goes back and forth, if the struggles between other dao lineages also imitate this, and dao struggles intensify more and more in the future, do you think that is something the Immortal Emperor would want to see?”

“For the sect, temporary profit is very important. But stability is even more important. Only a stable environment can continuously produce immortal dao provisions for the Immortal Emperors.”

The giant corpse shook his head. “I do not know why… the innate dao lineage dared to do this this time. But if I were the Immortal Emperor, I would absolutely not want the Old Days Graveyard to collapse and push the dao struggle to a new intensity.”
