Value!

The changes in the pattern of the world, or rather the plotting of the Taoist Monarchs, is essentially a clash and exchange of value.

Among the many Taoist Monarchs acting as chess players, he, the True Martial Emperor, a strong figure of the True Immortal Sixth Heavenly Layer, counts as one of the most top-notch, best quality, and most valuable chess pieces, especially since this piece maintains obedience to the wills of the many Taoist Monarchs. Even if the piece has its own interests to plan for, they can fully accept it.

For the many Taoist Monarchs, they don't care how these chess pieces think, or what they do, as long as they don't harm their own interests or go against their will, the value of the chess piece remains, and they will protect it.

This is also the reason why the True Martial Emperor is able to contend with the Jade Emperor by relying on the edicts of the Taoist Monarchs, because even though the Jade Emperor has great authority and strength, he has always wanted to go against the will of the Taoist Monarchs, stepping out of the chessboard, thus diminishing his own value.

The many Taoist Monarchs don't care about the Jade Emperor's scheming, but his plans and ambitions have affected their interests, naturally leading to their displeasure, which is why they support the True Martial Emperor.

But all of this is based on the fact that the Jade Emperor has not yet demonstrated himself as a Taoist Monarch. The moment the Jade Emperor becomes a Taoist Monarch, his value will be infinitely magnified, standing on the same level as the many Taoist Monarchs, transformed into the existence of a chess player.

Even if the Jade Emperor is only a weak chess player, this is already a qualitative change, having the qualification to overturn the chessboard, so his value far exceeds that of the True Martial Emperor, the perfect chess piece. This is the crisis of the True Martial Emperor.

It means that once the edicts of the many Taoist Monarchs were relied upon, but facing the Jade Emperor as a chess player, these edicts will no longer serve as a support. Even if the Jade Emperor was to crush him, the many Taoist Monarchs would not intervene.

This urgency has arisen in the heart of the True Martial Emperor; he needs to enhance his value, to change his role, otherwise, he will be the one abandoned.

Because at this time, his value is no longer worth the protection of the many Taoist Monarchs, compared to the Jade Emperor, he has become the one who can be sacrificed.

During this time, the one and only thing the True Martial Emperor had been doing was closing off in seclusion, seeking to understand how to make a breakthrough, for only with a breakthrough would he have a chance.

But a line's difference is ultimately a line's difference. Although he felt that his Realm had reached fullness, he was still ultimately one step away from making a breakthrough, unable to truly step forward.

If one needs an accurate description, he is what's called a True Immortal Sixth Heavenly Layer at a half-step to the Grand Perfection Realm, but whether it's a half-step to Grand Perfection or a Grand Perfection at a half-step, not breaking through means not breaking through, and there's no ground to compare with Taoist Monarch powerhouses.

At the initial news of the emergence of the Great Fate Technique, various True Immortals all reacted, and even some True Immortals, whose compatibility with the Great Fate Technique was obviously low, were also tempted, because after all, it's a Supreme Level Divine Power skill.

However, when the True Martial Emperor heard this news, he remained unmoved, without even the slightest bit of reaction, because it was of no use to him, and even paying attention to it would be a waste of time, utterly meaningless.

"The remaining Supreme Divine Powers are also about to emerge, equivalent to the appearance of seven Supreme Level Divine Power skills, this might just be my opportunity," the True Martial Emperor finally could not sit still.

The arduous cultivation he had been undertaking was no longer of any help, even strengthening his foundation and accumulating so-called trump cards wouldn't provide much help when truly facing a Taoist Monarch.

Especially considering the terrifying strength displayed by the Jade Emperor not long ago, despite losing to the Sword Emperor, such power is definitely not something he can contend with; any trump cards he has could only delay for a short time, fundamentally unable to secure the ultimate victory.

If it were just the Great Fate Technique, it might not matter, after all, he doesn't have many choices, even if he knows accumulating trump cards isn't very useful, he'd still hold a better-than-nothing mindset and do this thing, struggling to the end.

But now that new information has arrived, with more Supreme Divine Powers emerging, the appearance of seven more Supreme Divine Power skills means new possibilities have emerged, perhaps his chance for promotion lies here.

He has decided to give it a try, to make the last attempt; if he still fails, then it would prove that the Heavenly Mandate is not with him, and he will have to make the final choice to attach himself to a certain Taoist Monarch.

This is the most pessimistic choice, but undoubtedly the wisest one for the True Martial Emperor.

He is not foolish, but the smarter one is, the clearer they can see the current situation of the world, understanding the surging currents in the Realms of Heavenly Seas, recognizing that those powerful beings no longer have that many choices.

The chaos that follows requires either a promotion to the level of a Taoist Monarch to have a certain degree of independence or to rise by taking advantage of the situation and continually growing stronger.

Alternatively, one must thoroughly affiliate themselves under a Taoist Monarch, then become their chess piece, perhaps even having a better chance of advancement along with the victory of that Taoist Monarch.

Beyond that, there are no other choices. Being neutral also requires sufficient strength; when both camps truly start their struggle, the first thing they will do is not directly engage in battle, but first to clear any power that does not align with them, leaving no room for any neutral or bystander existence.
