Immortal sects born of true immortals, too, conveyed to their disciples the agreed-upon rules, warning them that although the Godsealing Plan promised immense rewards, it also guaranteed a brutally fierce conflict where one misstep could cost their lives, hoping they would each choose cautiously.
Longevity is elusive, even for those born in immortal sects, but truly, cultivators who are confident they can step into the realm of a True Immortal are few and far between.
The path of immortality is fraught with hardships; no one knows at which step they might be halted, thereafter doomed to make no further progress in their lifetime.
And even those cultivators who are confident and aspire toward the Immortal Path, not yet having stepped foot on it, see the chance at immortality as an opportunity to prepare a fallback plan for themselves.
