Chapter 164: Dragon Sky Immortal Kingdom
"We have officially advanced to an empire. From now on, all citizens of my empire will cultivate at a speed more than double compared to before! Depending on their official rank, the maximum speed can reach 2.5 times!" Yang Chen said proudly.
"What about us?" Zhu Que quickly asked.
"You are my empresses, so you naturally enjoy a cultivation speed of 2.5 times," Yang Chen replied.
"And what about you, Brother-in-law?" Fu Tengfei inquired.
"Three times!" Yang Chen answered. "This is just the initial stage of the empire. Once my subjects exceed one billion, I will have a cultivation speed of six times, while princes and royal relatives will enjoy a speed of 5.5 times."
"Royal relatives? Father, after my sister marries Brother-in-law, I will be a royal relative!" Fu Tengfei said happily.
"Xiaofei, don't you feel that the speed of the fighting energy circulating within you has increased by more than double?" Yang Chen smiled and said.
"It really has, Brother-in-law!" Fu Tengfei exclaimed joyfully.
"Unfortunately, for those of us at the peak of Fighting Saint, it doesn't matter anymore," Yi Tianzheng sighed.
"Hehe, the National Master is mistaken. Doesn't the National Master want to see the Upper Realm?" Yang Chen said.
"Upper Realm? Is that where that guy Fan Yingtian went?" Yi Tianzheng said with interest.
"It should not be. Where Fan Yingtian went is likely the other world mentioned by those above," Yang Chen explained. "The Upper Realm should be similar to our world, but Fighting Saints there are as common as dogs; even gods might not be that strong."
"How did Your Majesty know?" Yi Tianzheng asked.
"Because I have seen two exiled gods," Yang Chen explained softly, causing everyone to gasp in surprise.
"Let the banquet begin!" Yang Chen commanded.
"Yes, Your Majesty." At that moment, both hosts and guests were in high spirits, drinking merrily. Outside, others were also toasting. After several rounds of drinks, the thirty or so powerful fighters who had gone out to pursue returned.
"We pay our respects to Your Majesty."
"Rise."
"Your Majesty, there were ninety-three enemies this time. After repeated pursuits and killings, we have slain thirty-eight at the borders of our empire!" Yao Tongtian reported respectfully. "Thank you for your hard work. Later, you will all enter seclusion with me!" Yang Chen said. "It's a pity we couldn't capture the leaders of the four major forces," Yao Tongtian lamented.
"Hehe, it was only a matter of time, wasn't it? Since they made the first move, I won't be polite anymore. Starting tomorrow, we will mobilize the troops and in three months, we will attack... the Eastern Territories!" Yang Chen ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Subsequently, Yang Chen invited these thirty or so people to join the banquet and drink to their heart's content. It wasn't until the next day that the drinking finally ended. Fortunately, the vital energy within the fighters could last for three days without dissipating and their spiritual energy could last for three years; otherwise, the gains from this slaughter would have been significantly reduced. Afterward, Yang Chen began his seclusion.
He instructed Tang An to enhance the surrounding formations. If this Nine Palace Bagua Formation could be strengthened further, of course, Yang Chen's own strength would need to increase as well; only then would his life energy and death energy become more potent. This way, both the Nine Palace Bagua Formation and the Four Symbols Formation would become even more powerful. Thus, those who managed to escape today would definitely not be so numerous.
After entering seclusion, Yang Chen no longer needed to worry about the operation of the empire; with Yi Tianzheng around, what was there to be concerned about? From then on, Lingxiao City became Yang Chen's imperial city, Lingxiao Palace became his royal palace, and Lingxiao Hall was where he held court. After Yang Chen entered seclusion, Yi Tianzheng began recruiting soldiers recklessly. Many people knew that joining the Shadow Kill Empire would accelerate their cultivation speed. Soon word spread from one person to ten and from ten to a hundred. Before long, the twelve legions had over ten million soldiers. Yi Tianzheng set the recruitment cap for each legion at one hundred million. Finally, after a month, the number of soldiers in the twelve legions stopped growing wildly; however, by this time, they already boasted eight hundred million troops. Including the citizens of their cities, the Shadow Kill Empire had a total population of one billion! They had already fulfilled one-tenth of the requirements for becoming an immortal nation.
At this time, with eight major cities (five cities merged into Lingxiao City counted as one), gathering a billion citizens, Yi Tianzheng pondered for half a day. If they did not seize more cities, within a month, the economy of these eight cities would collapse! It was essential to have both stability and progress. It was impractical for such a large population to be concentrated in just eight cities.
Thus, Yi Tianzheng ordered an attack on the Shadow Wind Dynasty's Northern Territory and the Eighteen Cities of the Undying Sacred Land. With Shadow Kill Pavilion joining in on the assault, within just half a month, both Northern Territory and Eighteen Cities fell under Shadow Kill Empire's control. However, everyone from Undying Sacred Land retreated while fighting; they did not engage in prolonged battles and suffered almost no losses as they withdrew entirely to Eastern Territories. At this moment, Yi Tianzheng received news that both Reincarnation Sacred Land and Refining Qi Guild from Southern Territory had also retreated to Eastern Territories, creating an impression of a united front against Shadow Kill Empire. Subsequently, Yi Tianzheng dispatched troops to occupy Southern Territory's Thirty-Six Cities and began extensive development.
On August 5th, when Yang Chen emerged from seclusion, Southern Territory had already been completely occupied and was in a state of peaceful development. In just twenty days, Shadow Kill Empire had grown its population to five billion and its army to twelve billion! At this rate of growth without relying on war to sustain war efforts, it would be impossible for Shadow Wind Empire to support such a large army! Meanwhile, during these twenty days of seclusion, Yang Chen had advanced to Six Star Doujun while every other Dou Sheng had also leveled up by one rank. Yao Tongtian and Yao Tianshang both advanced from third transition Dou Sheng to fourth transition Dou Sheng.
"National Master, what do you think of the current state of the world?" In front of Lingxiao Palace, Yang Chen and Yi Tianzheng looked down at the land and spoke softly, "Why has the Shadow Kill Empire only reached sixty billion so far?"
"The Eastern Frontier Shadow Wind Dynasty has transformed the entire Eastern Frontier into a city and changed its name to the Longxiao Immortal Kingdom!" Yi Tianzheng said helplessly. "It is said that the Longxiao Immortal Kingdom possesses miraculous effects similar to those of our Shadow Kill Empire."
"What!" Yang Chen exclaimed in surprise. "How is that possible? How could he, Long Break the Sky, also establish a heavenly court?"
"National Master, give me the history of the Longxiao Immortal Kingdom," Yang Chen said.
"It has long been prepared." Yi Tianzheng took out a piece of information from his storage ring. Yang Chen took it and looked: "The Shadow Wind Dynasty was established nine hundred eighty-four years ago, founded by Emperor Long Heavenly Emperor! Long Heavenly Emperor has countless myths in his lifetime and is currently regarded as the most likely candidate to become a deity among the Fighting Saints. For some unknown reason, he established the Shadow Wind Dynasty at the age of three hundred thirty-seven, at that time being at the peak of Nine Transformations Fighting Saint, Demigod Realm."
"Is that all?" Yang Chen asked.
"That's all there is. However, I and several officials from the Astronomical Bureau have calculated many things and discovered a secret," Yi Tianzheng said. "Long Heavenly Emperor is not dead yet!"
"What? Not dead? Generally speaking, a Fighting Saint can live up to a thousand years at most. Now that Long Heavenly Emperor is already one thousand three hundred twenty-one years old, which Fighting Saint can live this long?"
"I don't know about that."
"You just mentioned that you calculated this with people from the Astronomical Bureau? By the way, where is your disciple, Tianxinzi?" Yang Chen asked.
"That stubborn disciple has been trapped outside the Divine Relic for ninety-eight years. I recently calculated that he was in danger and went to look for him but could not find the entrance to the Divine Relic," Yi Tianzheng sighed.
