A Shocking Secret! The Investiture of the Gods Was Only a Pretext?

Houtu looked at Zhou Ming, a trace of lingering doubt in her clear eyes.

"Brother, you just said that whether Tongtian succeeds or not won't have much effect on the final outcome of the Tribulation."

"Then... why is that?"

Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, her heart filled with confusion.

Since Brother had gone to such lengths to guide Tongtian, even making a promise to block Dao Ancestor Hongjun for him,

wasn't it all to help the Interception Sect break through its predicament and win this Tribulation?

Then the victory or defeat of the Interception Sect should have been of vital importance.

Yet Brother's words seemed to imply that whether the Interception Sect survived or perished was completely irrelevant to the overall situation.

Wasn't that contradictory?

Zhou Ming looked at Houtu and slowly asked,

"Because the true purpose of this Tribulation has never been the Investiture of the Gods."

"The Investiture of the Gods is merely a byproduct."

"Although today's Heavenly Court cannot be said to be overflowing with talent, it is by no means short of people to employ."

"It is nowhere near the point where it needs to fill every position of a righteous god with disciples from the Chan Sect and Interception Sect."

"The so-called Investiture of the Gods is merely an excuse Hongjun used to initiate this Tribulation."

"Whether Chan Sect disciples make the list or Interception Sect disciples make the list, it is irrelevant to the overall situation."

"What matters is making the Sages enter the Tribulation."

"Making them fight for their respective doctrines and disciples here in the Primordial World."

"As long as these Sages start fighting, then the purpose for which the Heavenly Dao and Hongjun stirred up this Tribulation will have been achieved."

After hearing Zhou Ming's explanation, she immediately understood many things.
