Facing the Apocalypse with My Other Selves-Chapter 511 - 292: Palace of the Polestar

Regarding this matter, Shen Yu indeed has some understanding.

He previously stayed at Fangcun Mountain and chatted with other Immortals.

Ultimately, it was a question of the era.

Before this, nature’s spiritual energy was plentiful, the number of Dao Fruits was many, and becoming an Immortal was a very simple matter.

If marriage between Immortals was allowed, it’s evident that there would be a large number of Second Generation Immortals.

Every Second Generation Immortal could easily become an Immortal, occupying resources.

Moreover, while Immortals have long lifespans, their emotions often do not, leading to various disputes. As for the few with steadfast emotions, achieving after withstanding heavenly penalties counts as some accomplishment.

However, the following era was completely different.

Becoming an Immortal was difficult, and even Second Generation Immortals faced the same challenge. Additionally, many Immortals found it hard to see cultivation opportunities after becoming Immortals, their days idly passing, which made conflicts more likely.

Opening marriage was considered a way to increase some spiritual needs.

At the same time, it directed some conflicts inward among the Immortals.

This prevented a crisis in the Heavenly Court.

All in all, even the Heavenly Court or the Immortal Court wasn’t much different from the mortal world; various regulations were all for overall stability and the interests of some individuals.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side.

"Among these Second Generation Immortals, the number who can truly become Immortals is not many. Many Immortals, to avoid being separated by life and death, would not have children even if they married."

Shen Yu turned his head and saw that the person speaking was an elderly, white-bearded old man, holding in his hand a soft and clean whisk, with white hair and youthful features, and a kind smile. His whole image resembled an old Divine Spirit straight out of a myth.

And absolutely a positive kind.

Shen Yu recognized his identity at first sight.

——Taibai Venus.

A well-known celestial being in myths of the Journey to the West, widely known as the envoy of the Jade Emperor.

However, in the myths, the specifics of his cultivation realm and power were not quite known to people.

Even in front of Sun Wukong, he appeared quite polite.

But seeing the real person now, Shen Yu realized that this one also had the realm of a Taiyi Golden Immortal!

This indeed surprised Shen Yu somewhat.

Why is the sky filled with such powerful Immortal Gods, even including those seemingly inconspicuous characters from myths?

"Taibai is the True Disciple of Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad."

Bodhi Ancestor reminded from the side, and Shen Yu only then realized.

He turned out to be the disciple of Lao Zi!

In this Primordial World, Lao Zi is Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad, also known as the Taiqing Moral Celestial Sovereign, one of the Three Pure Ones, a Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal, holding a Saint Fruit Position!

It can be said, if the Dao Ancestor Hongjun does not emerge, such saints like Lao Zi are pretty much at the pinnacle of the Primordial World.

Being the True Disciple of Lao Zi, having the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm is not surprising.

Recalling the image of this character in the Journey to the West story, Shen Yu couldn’t help but feel reflective.

Indeed, one cannot fully believe in myths.

"Bodhi Ancestor praises too much. This disciple is unworthy of the master’s teachings and dares not use his master’s name." Taibai Venus first clasped his hands towards the direction of the Xuandu Eight Views Palace, then respectfully saluted Bodhi Ancestor, and finally smiled at Shen Yu, saying, "If you, fellow Daoist, are interested in the Immortal Realm, why don’t you let Taibai accompany you to visit once matters here are settled?"

Shen Yu, at this point, felt the charm of this "top socialite of the Immortal Realm."

With just a short conversation, combined with this amiable and sincere demeanor, along with his celestial demeanor and approachable demeanor, it engendered immediate goodwill.

However, by now, having met many Immortals, Shen Yu almost felt the general sentiment of these Primordial World Immortals towards this end-times crisis.

——They take it seriously, but not to the extent of life and death.

This is also normal.

According to current findings, for these Immortals of the Primordial World, the worst-case scenario is being expelled along with the entire world.

Though they must leave their past grand world, they can also step outside of the world and head to new frontiers.

It’s not entirely unacceptable.

Therefore, just as Shen Yu observed, aside from many Saints and Daluo Golden Immortals still working hard to find opportunities, ordinary Immortals, even a part of the Taiyi Golden Immortals and Golden Immortals, continue their lives as usual.

As if unaffected.

And unfortunates like King Yama actually fell during the grand battle when the Primordial World was first sealed.

Indeed, there was an extremely intense face-to-face war.

But in that war, the Immortals completely failed in terms of intelligence.

The opponent, using very simple methods, rendered the Saints incapable of intervention and altered the celestial mechanisms and even the rules of the Primordial World.

It was a calculated effort, fully prepared, dealing with arrogance and conceit.

It forced the Immortals, who had long looked down on what was called technology, to accept an unprecedented defeat.

However, the Immortals of the Primordial World are ultimately not those so-called Divine Spirits of the Magic World, each of them possessing a remarkably high state of mind.

So even if some Taiyi Golden Immortals and Golden Immortals, who haven’t stood at the top, appear indifferent to this sudden war and catastrophe, in reality, many of them have merely left the decision-making to the higher-ups.

For instance, at the moment.

The number of arriving Immortals far exceeded imagination.

Moreover, many bore a thick air of blood and killing, appearing not like Immortals at all, but bona fide great demons.
