The actions of a strong individual, even if seemingly casual, will attract the attention and even imagination of countless people.
The Witch Deity Teaching is indeed powerful, and they can be said to be one of the top immortal sects in the Realms of Heavenly Seas in the Divine Land World, with their every move attracting the attention of countless strong individuals.
However, the concept of strength is inherently comparative and not unchangeable.
Although the Witch Deity Teaching, with a few Taoist Monarchs' combat power, is indeed powerful, they are relatively weaker compared to the Longevity Taoist Monarch.
Moreover, the system of the Witch Deity Teaching is distinctly different from other forces. At least, these twelve Ancestor Witches are the unquestionable core of the Witch Deity Teaching, but it also means that the twelve Ancestor Witches are on equal footing. Even if the Witch God Sect Leader has more say, it does not mean that the other Ancestor Witches must obey him unconditionally.
From a certain perspective, the system centered around the twelve Ancestor Witches of the Witch Deity Teaching is similar to the loose structure of the Taoist School. The twelve Ancestor Witches have their own supporters, and they are collaborators rather than subordinates, each having their own interests.
Even if they join forces, they might not have an overwhelming advantage over the Longevity Taoist Monarch, let alone sacrifice themselves for the benefit of others.
So, standing from Zhu Jiuyin's viewpoint, he must consider the attitude of the Longevity Taoist Monarch. To put it bluntly, the other party is also one of the twelve Ancestor Witches.
Now that the Five Old Lords have returned, it has made Zhu Jiuyin realize something — that Qing Laojun's existence might be useful to some plans of the Longevity Taoist Monarch, who does not want to see Qing Laojun perish.
The Five Directions Heavenly Emperor plan!
Instantly, the first reaction that flashed in Zhu Jiuyin's mind was this.
The existence of the Five Old Lords is supported by some Taoist Monarchs of the Taoist School. They serve as candidates for the Imperial Honors of the Heavenly Court. In the future, if the Taoist School truly takes control of the Heavenly Court, these Five Old Lords will become the Five Directions Heavenly Emperor, representing the Taoist School in ruling the Heavenly Court.
This matter is actually well known to everyone, but the reason why all sides have not paid too much attention is, besides each of the Six Imperials being a powerful presence, with unshakable status, the Taoist School itself does not have a unified stance.
According to rumors, the plan for the Five Directions Heavenly Emperor has always been supported by only a few Taoist Monarchs behind the Five Old Lords, not by all Taoist Monarchs of the Taoist School. At least, the Longevity Taoist Monarch does not get involved in the Taoist School's affairs and has shown a complete lack of concern for this matter.
Therefore, Zhu Jiuyin and many Taoist Monarchs do not pay attention to this plan of the Taoist School, after all, the entire Taoist School is not unified, and it has not obtained the recognition of the Longevity Taoist Monarch. Therefore, relying solely on a few Taoist Monarchs of the Taoist School, this matter cannot be accomplished.
But now that the Shenxiao Sect has brought back the Five Old Lords, it seems to express that they do not want to see Qing Laojun fall. Does this mean that the Longevity Taoist Monarch is still considering this plan and does not want to see the fall of the Five Old Lords?
Even with some darker thoughts, it could be that because of the existence of the Five Old Lords, this matter has become the focus of attention from all sides. So the Taoist School deliberately shows an inability to unify its stance, thereby reducing attention from all sides.
Now seeing that Qing Laojun is at risk of falling, these Taoist Monarchs in the Taoist School are left with no choice but to expose the situation.
"No, no, perhaps there's an even deeper purpose?" Zhu Jiuyin furrowed his brow and said, "Perhaps it's also because the Longevity Taoist Monarch wants to use this opportunity to express his attitude to other Taoist Monarchs of the Taoist School, to show inclination to the Taoist School, and not to support my Witch Deity Teaching without any bottom line!"
Zhu Jiuyin is a wise man, but wise men are prone to overthinking, especially when facing Pei Xuanjing. Not being able to see through him, he becomes more eager to study the opponent, even if his intellect cannot suppress his curiosity.
The current situation is changing; the Witch Deity Teaching has its own plans, and the Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing is an existence that cannot be ignored. Therefore, he is increasingly eager to understand some of the opponent's plans and thoughts, in order to make choices and strategize more benefits for the Witch Deity Teaching and himself.
"However, regardless, today's Wood Dao Authority cannot be missed." Zhu Jiuyin's gaze turned to the distant figures engaged in combat.
The Five Directions Formation of the Five Old Lords is indeed extraordinary. The power displayed at this moment is astonishing, even though Wood Virtue Star Lord and Ju Mang Ancestor Witch are both top figures in the Sixth Heaven of True Immortal Realm, they are clearly slightly at a disadvantage at this time.
But no matter what, since Qingling Primordial Lord has descended here today, they must not miss this golden opportunity.
Wood Virtue Star Lord, Qingling Primordial Lord, and Ju Mang Ancestor Witch are all the individuals with the most shares of the laws of the Great Path of Wood. If these authorities can be gathered into one person, they will definitely shape a powerful Taoist Monarch, one who may be slightly inferior to the Jade Emperor and Great Emperor Ziwei, but not by much.
According to the Witch Deity Teaching's original plan, they first wanted to make a deal with Wood Virtue Star Lord to acquire the Wood Dao Authority, allowing Ju Mang Ancestor Witch to seize the opportunity to prove himself as a Taoist Monarch, and then use the opportunity to plot for the Wood Dao Authority on Qingling Primordial Lord.
