Chapter 2224 Immortal Paragon

The information about an Immortal Paragon was entirely new to Lin Mu.

While he had learned a bit about the Immortal Court, he was still unaware of their major workings. Though that was not unusual either, as it was mostly information that people of the Immortal Court would know or those at the higher echelons of the realm. For example, an Emperor might know how things went in the Immortal Court, but that information might not be all encompassing.

This was intentional too, as the Immortal Court preferred their internal workings to be limited to those that were within their camp. "They don't have Immortal Paragons at the helm anymore?" Lin Mu heard the surprised voice of Xukong. "Is the Immortal Court in a depression?" he wondered.

"You know of them senior?" Lin Mu asked.

"Of course. Immortal Paragons can be considered as one of the most important cultivators in the entire Immortal Realm. They can dictate the working of an Immortal Court and command great power, both physical as well as political." Xukong replied.

"What did Crown Prince Feng Shun mean by not every Immortal Court leader is qualified to become one?" Lin Mu questioned, seeing that Crown Prince and his companions were still thinking about the ring, giving him some time.

"In order to become an Immortal Paragon, not only does the leader have to be strong and be selected by the majority of an Immortal Court, they also need to gain the approval of the Paragon's Will." Xukong answered. "Paragon's Will? What's that?" Lin Mu asked.

"You can think of it as the collective will of every Immortal Paragon that has been in the Immoral Courts since times immemorial. They decide whether an Immortal would be qualified to become an Immortal Paragon.

Immortal Paragon is important for the Immortal Court to have. At the very least there should be a single paragon in every generation. The Immortal Paragons are a sign that the Immortal Court can be trusted in its decisions and that they will stay incorruptible. If there is no Immortal Paragon, the Immortal Court is weakened… the clans that have supported the Immortal Court will not have full trust in its workings, and neither will the other powers."
