The situation is about to become chaotic, and everyone has their own thoughts. Some people just want to stay unscathed amidst the chaos, while others want to seize this opportunity to soar and gain more.

The large immortal sects, many True Immortals, and the newly ascended Dao Lords have their own schemes and calculations. They want to take advantage of the chaos to fish in troubled waters and gather enough benefits for themselves.

Even Pei Xuanjing himself has some thoughts, wanting to plan something to advance further. So why wouldn't the other Dao Lords have their own calculations and thoughts?

For many veteran Dao Lords, their consensus is to take this opportunity to revive the stagnating situation of the Divine Land World, allowing it to advance further, so they too can rise with the tide.

This goal is consistent, not only for the many veteran Dao Lords but also for the newly ascended Dao Lords. Everyone has no objections.

However, in the Divine Continent World, where the tide has risen, how much share of the benefits they should obtain is debatable or even uncertain.

For some Dao Lords, they believe the shares they currently hold are sufficient. Therefore, they are more inclined to conservatively remain content with the status quo, as long as their existing interests remain unaffected.

Some Dao Lords originally had a relatively small share of interests. At this time, they naturally want to take advantage of the situation to gain more shares, at least believing that their strength should bring them more benefits, making them relatively aggressive.

And other Dao Lords already hold significant shares, yet, in the unfolding situation, they not only want to maintain their existing shares but also want to obtain more, elevate their status, and improve further.

Naturally, Dao Lords with such intentions must take action. They cannot simply let everything proceed according to others' plans, at least not too smoothly for their opponents.

The Taoist School, as one of the most powerful forces under heaven, with the presence of Pei Xuanjing, can be considered the mightiest force beneath the heavens.

Even though Pei Xuanjing does not usually involve himself in the many affairs of the Taoist School, given that he is indifferent to even the matters of his Shenxiao Sect, his identity as a pivotal figure in the Taoist School cannot be erased.

This forms an invisible deterrent. As long as Pei Xuanjing exists, there will undoubtedly be a series of influences; such subtle influences are enough to bring considerable power to the Taoist faction.

The prosperity and strength of the Taoist School over the years are undeniable. No party would be willing to be suppressed indefinitely. If there were no opportunities, it would be one thing, but if opportunities arise, they are certainly not averse to reacting.

Just like the Qingling Primordial Lord's action this time, as long as the Qingling Primordial Lord succeeds, and the Taoist School gains a Dao Lord, the Taoist School's power will strengthen, and its discourse power in the Heavenly Court will increase accordingly.

The interests in the Divine Continent World are limited, divided by various forces. Once a party becomes powerful, it naturally wants to gain more benefits. Without new sources of interest, it's inevitable to compress other parties' interests.

For independent practitioners, the existence of sects and religious sects erodes more interests; they can only have the leftovers.

For small sects, it's the same with large immortal sects; and for large immortal sects, top immortal sects are similar.

When it comes to greater powers such as the Taoist School, Demonic Cult, Buddhism School, and Confucianism, it's also the same.

Internal conflict is the nature of all forces, but so is banding together.

In the absence of external threats, a force will naturally generate many factions for internal conflict; however, under external threats, as long as the force does not want to perish, it will naturally band together.

Just like when there was the threat of the Demon Race in the Divine Land World. Even if the internal strong practitioners of the human race pursued different paths and had different perceptions of cultivation, they did not advocate the destruction of any side, temporarily controlling the struggle within a certain range.

But after the War of Sealing Gods expelled the Demon Race, without external threats, the various forces within the human race almost broke into conflicts over the scramble for benefits. Had it not been for the opportunity to gather resources through the Heavenly Court's expansion plan, the Divine Continent World's internal conflicts might have erupted violently long ago.

However, up to now, this conflict has reached a peak, and not even the benefits brought by the Heavenly Court's expansion plan can cover it.

The divisions between various forces within the human race are intricate and complex. Each faction aligns itself based on its cultivation system, cultivation concepts, and understanding of heaven and earth, dividing into numerous camps both horizontally and vertically.

However, in these overall camp divisions, it ultimately boils down to factions led by the Taoist School, Buddhism School, Demonic Gate, Confucianism, and some factions that are neither Confucian nor Taoist nor Buddhist nor demonic, like the Sword Sect, Witch Deity Teaching, and Ten Thousand Spirits Sect, which follow heaven's model and are independent.

Compared to the interchanging power dynamics among the Taoist, Buddhist, Demonic, and Confucian factions, even if one side sees the emergence of a particularly powerful being, it won't affect their interests in a short period; yet, for the remaining parties, an exceptionally powerful presence on one side might squeeze their own living spaces.
