Xi Shangyan looked at the shocked expression on these people's faces and mentally shook her head. Although it looked like the Celestial Race was powerful beyond reason, it was not.
In the Eternal Ascension World, the number of Great Emperors a faction had did not matter. What dictated the authority of any faction was the number of Paragons or Tier 12 Cultivators they had.
In this regard, the Celestial Race's innate talent did not help because of the fundamental flaw of the Immortal Path: just because someone was an Insurgent in Tier 10, it did not mean they could become one in Tier 11 or above.
For example, the clan members who cultivated Heavenly Immortal Qi had less than a 5% chance of sublimating it to Golden Immortal Qi on par with regular Empyreans. If they wanted to continue becoming Insurgents, they had to be like everyone else and search for rare and unique Qis in the Source Qi Space—an inherently dangerous place for them despite being born there.
