Lord of the Earth

"Your Majesty, everything is ready!"

"This time, the Fengshan ritual will first start with the Fengshan Terrace in the capital of the gods, and then proceed to the five mountains in our territory to perform sacrifices one by one... touring the four seas and driving the country to show the power of the country and deter the villains!"

Jia Xu also looked very excited.

The Divine Capital is the original "City of All Races".

Therefore, Xia positioned it as the second capital of the Qianxia Dynasty.

Therefore, nowadays people are more accustomed to calling it "God's Capital", as a counterpart to the Immortal Capital "Baiyujing".

The "Fengshan Terrace" itself is located outside the Divine Capital, so the "Fengshan" must naturally be opened in the Divine Capital!
You know, "Fengshan" is a big deal for a dynasty, especially for people like Jia Xu in the Han Dynasty, "Fengshan" is of extraordinary significance!
Because the earliest verifiable origin of the word "Fengshan" is the article "Fengshan" written by Guan Zhong in the Spring and Autumn Period, which records that a total of 72 monarchs had offered sacrifices at Mount Tai.

Among them, there are even legendary mythological figures such as Dayu, Shang Tang, King Cheng of Zhou, and the Five Emperors.

However, because the era was too long ago, the traces left by these emperors' Fengshan are difficult to be verified in later generations. The real detailed record is that when Qin Shihuang Yingzheng was on tour, he passed by Mount Tai and "built an altar on Mount Tai to offer sacrifices to the sky and repay the merits of the sky, so it was called Feng. Here, he cleared the land on the small hill under Mount Tai to repay the merits of the earth, so it was called Chan"!
In ancient China, "Fengshan at Mount Tai" had a very special meaning.

Since Qin Shi Huang, there have been only nine emperors who have performed the Fengshan ceremony at Mount Tai in a very formal "ceremony".

Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng, Emperor Wu of Han Liu Che, Emperor Guangwu of Han Liu Xiu, Emperor Zhang of Han Liu Zhuang, Emperor An of Han Liu Hu, Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian, Emperor Gaozong of Tang Li Zhi, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Li Longji and Emperor Zhenzong of Song Zhao Heng...

It is obvious that most of these emperors have extremely outstanding "achievements".

Because, according to the records in "Records of the Grand Historian: The Book of Fengshan", for an emperor, "Fengshan on Mount Tai" is a great honor, and one must meet certain conditions to be eligible to perform "Fengshan"!
First of all, the country needs to be unified, peace and prosperity must be achieved, and the country must be stable.

Secondly, the emperor needs to have outstanding political achievements, as brilliant as the sun and the moon, to have good governance and to keep the people safe and well-off. This is the capital for the Fengshan ceremony.

It also requires auspicious signs from heaven, the appearance of dragons and phoenixes, and the appearance of unicorns, to show the protection of God.

Furthermore, only when the people support the emperor and all the people are loyal to him can the emperor’s virtue be demonstrated, which is the foundation of Fengshan.

Finally, it is necessary to carefully select the sacrifices, display the ceremonial objects, and ensure the abundance of material goods and the full range of rituals in order to demonstrate the solemnity and sacredness of Fengshan.

It can be seen that this "fengshan" cannot be carried out casually, it requires the right time, place, and people to meet...

Therefore, since the Qin Dynasty, there have been only a handful of emperors in ancient times who have performed "fengshan"!

"The people invited to the Fengshan ceremony in the Divine Capital are mainly from our human race, mainly the surrounding human forces... including the Taiping Dao and Taixuan Sect... and during your majesty's tour, you will also invite some foreign forces to hold an alliance with your majesty to discuss the hegemony of our human race..."

Jia Xu said again.

"Well, let's arrange it this way."

Theoretically, after this "fengshan", the Qianxia Dynasty will take a further step towards becoming an "empire", which means that it will have a greater impact on the numerous fortune-enhancing forces around it.

Under such circumstances, the Qianxia Dynasty also needs to demonstrate its strength with a grand "parade" and suppress the possible ideas of some alien races!

"Well, let's go to 'God's Capital' first!"

……

"Is this the legendary city of all races, the human race's 'capital of gods'? It's so majestic with tigers crouching and dragons coiling around it!"

"Can the human race actually build such a magnificent city?"

"I heard that there are all kinds of rare treasures, weapons and armor for sale in this city. I hope to buy some and bring them back to my clan. That way, we will definitely be able to defeat those crocodile monsters..."

An extremely huge city stands next to an altar that looks like a mountain.

Creatures of all kinds and sizes came in and out of the city gates carved with patterns of all races, one after another, with expressions and eyes filled with curiosity, longing, and amazement.

It has been a year since the "Battle of Catastrophe".

This newly built city finally showed some signs of being the "second capital of the dynasty".

Surrounding the entire capital is a "city wall" that is over 100 meters high and exudes a heavy historical atmosphere amidst the mottled bricks and stones. It is none other than the "national treasure" of the Qianxia Dynasty, the Great Wall of the human race.

Thanks to the constant wars with foreign races in recent days and the substantial increase in population, the total mileage of the "Great Wall of Humankind" has now reached 9,999 miles, which is only one step away from the "ten thousand miles" standard of the Xuanhuang heavy weapon!
And this is also one of the grand gifts prepared by the Qianxia Dynasty for this "Fengshan"!

"Dragon meat buns, delicious dragon meat buns, made with top-notch craftsmanship, using the meat of the silver dragon fish that has undergone five transformations and dragon spirit grass that can strengthen male sexual function. The taste is excellent! One silver coin per day."

"Donkey hide gelatin, absolutely authentic and extraordinary level gelatin... What, you suspect my product is fake? This is the gelatin I cut from my body myself, how could it be fake?"

"A top-grade weapon, made by an outstanding apprentice from the Qianxia Dynasty's foundry. It's one step away from becoming a spiritual weapon. I'm selling it for a hundred Tianyuan copper coins..."

Once you enter the city, you can see all kinds of races wandering around, trading with each other, hundreds of races gathering together, and the place is bustling with people!
Unlike the cruel ordinary eternal places, this city seems like a paradise.

Walking on the road, you can see tigers and mice in brocade clothes being brothers, and there are also tribes of barbarian bulls and lion monsters in tight clothes walking side by side, acting as guards for the human race; even two creatures that are mortal enemies are standing together in front of the "Spirit Wine Shop", drooling all over the floor!
"Doctor! My chest hurts so much, can you please take a look at it for me..."

Below the sign that reads "Medical Clinic" of the Qianxia Dynasty, a large group of female succubi dressed seductively with their vital parts barely visible were queuing up to receive medical treatment.

"Come and see, the body structure of succubi is very different from ours. Therefore, the reasons why they get sick are generally different from those of us humans..."

"However, the principles of medicine remain unchanged. If there is a problem with the body, it is nothing more than an imbalance of yin and yang and the five elements."

"For example, because they have used the charm technique too much, their Yin Qi has leaked out, and they have absorbed too much Yang Qi. Most of the succubi will have symptoms of excessive Yang, such as chest pain... At this time, you should use silver needles to pierce their Tanzhong acupoint in a feminine way, which is on their chest..."

An old doctor with extraordinary skills was seriously teaching a group of young human doctors with a silver needle.

"Yes, Master is going to give us acupuncture with silver needles. We sisters will feel uncomfortable if we don't get acupuncture for a day..."

These succubi were really bold, they were well dressed, and they were always laughing and joking in their conversations, which made most of the medical apprentices who came from ancient times blush, and they looked at a loss and fidgety!
"The medical skills of this human race are really superb. I heard that a large number of the creatures who come to this divine capital come here to seek medical treatment because of injuries, poisoning, or even broken limbs..."

"The human race is unique in this regard. They can reattach broken limbs to new ones, or choose to help forge spiritual weapon-level 'mechanical limbs'. This is really eye-opening and enviable..."

"Yes, the human race is naturally intelligent, and is second to none in the field of research on various external skills... Even the dwarves and goblins can only compare with the human race in a single aspect."

Several creatures wearing white robes representing the "Academy" walked by. They did not look like humans, but rather like Bull Demons, Golden Eagles, and other alien races.

"That's why we traveled thousands of miles to come here to study... We hope that after we learn the skills, we can contribute to our race after returning!"

Of course, if you want to "study" in the Qianxia Dynasty, you will definitely have to pay a price.

The Qianxia Dynasty was not like some schools on Earth that once paid for foreign students to study there!
If they want to enroll in the "Academy" of the Qianxia Dynasty, these aliens must first undergo a "test" to make sure that they are not vicious and evil people, and that they cannot have human blood on their hands!

Secondly, each course requires the payment of corresponding "Tianyuan Coins", and the higher the level of the teacher's course, the higher the fee!

For example, the medical courses taught by Hua Tuo, who possesses saint-level skills, the casting courses taught by Gan Jiang and Mo Ye... Each course requires a million Tianyuan gold coins to be eligible to study.

The mechanical engineering courses of Gongshu Chou, Zhu Youxiao's carpentry courses, and Pao Ding's cooking courses... these also require at least 100,000 Tianyuan gold coins...

Even the lowest-level, master-level Pan Jinlian's tailoring course and Wu Dalang's pastry course require tens of thousands of Tianyuan gold coins!
Those below the master level are not qualified to enter the "Academy" to participate in teaching.

Therefore, it can be said that each of these aliens who are able to study abroad in the "God's Capital" is a wealthy person and has a high status among the original aliens.

Boom!

At this time, a shop next to the several "foreign students" suddenly exploded. A large amount of purple sword energy blew the entire shop into pieces like a demolition.

Then, a figure rushed towards the outskirts of the city from the explosion area where broken limbs and bodies remained!

"What's going on? Someone dared to cause trouble in this 'God's Capital'?"

"Is this an idiot? He doesn't even know that breaking the rules in this city is very serious...wouldn't the punishment be this bad?"

"Hmm! He is actually a quasi-saint. This is going to be interesting."

It was an alien creature with a body similar to that of a mantis, its body as exquisite as a purple gem, and it exuded the aura of a quasi-saint in the fifth realm of transcendence!
"blockade!"

When he was about to get close to the city wall, he found that a transparent shield suddenly appeared around him.

Immediately afterwards, four figures suddenly walked out from outside the shield.

One of them was dressed in black, with arms as thick as iron, a square face and a solemn expression; one of them was stepping in the air, as if dancing in the wind; and the other one had a blank expression and a cold aura like ice!
The last person was sitting in a wheelchair. He had a handsome face, but seemed very weak and his face was even a little pale.

"Humph, I am the young master of the Purple Jade Mantis clan. This shop is selling the secret treasure of my Purple Jade Mantis clan without permission. If you humans protect it, you are declaring war on my Purple Jade Mantis clan..."

The gaze of this quasi-saint alien contained a threat, and his arms, transformed into sharp "blades" that flashed with cold light and gave off a deadly aura!
"If you break the law in the capital of God, you can be spared if you surrender immediately, but those who resist will be killed without mercy..."

The man in black remained unmoved and spoke in a cold voice.

"Humph, you guys...want to stop this young master!"

Said the young master of the Purple Jade Mantis.

Then, he jumped up and rushed towards the human man who was sitting in a wheelchair and looked a little weak.

After all, this person seems to have limited mobility and should be dealt with the best way!
Boo!
However, the next moment, the huge compound eyes on the head of "Young Master Purple Jade Mantis" suddenly changed.

Because, the seemingly ordinary wheelchair suddenly changed into a mechanical Suzaku. The flames spewed out of its mouth burned the void, making its face pale with fear!
There were also a large number of hidden weapons like flaming feathers, flying towards it like a fire storm, covering its entire body in an instant.

"Ding ding ding..."

If it weren't for its amazing talent as a "Purple Jade Mantis" and its extremely strong body, these "fire feathers" would have turned it into a "sieve" on the spot if they had only penetrated its body half an inch!
But he was forced to retreat again and again, and had no choice but to change direction.

“You…get out of the way…”

The young master of the Purple Jade Mantis shouted again, trying to break through from the position of the figure in black.

However, the opponent had no intention of giving way at all, and just stood there, swinging a pair of arms covered in black tights violently, colliding head-on with the "blade arm" swung by the mantis that had reached the quasi-saint level!
Click!

The purple jade mantis's pair of extremely sharp "blade arms" that were comparable to spiritual weapons collided with the human's arms.

Suddenly, it broke on the spot!

Afterwards, he was hit hard on the chest by the human's pair of iron fists, and his body flew backwards a hundred meters like a cannonball. Two huge fist marks appeared on his proud "purple jade body", and spider-web-like cracks continued to spread!

"This person! He is actually a quasi-saint, and his boxing skills are beyond the ordinary."

Then he was shocked. A pair of wings condensed with spiritual power appeared behind the Purple Jade Mantis. It broke through the air and flew towards the sky with injuries.

"Get off!"

But before it could fly too high.

Whoosh!
A figure had already arrived first, and the person's speed was so fast that he could even walk in the air.

bang, bang, bang...

Reaching above its body, a pair of legs weighing more than a thousand pounds instantly turned into thousands of afterimages, kicking the nearly ten-foot-tall body of the Young Master of the Purple Jade Mantis at his body, causing it to fall downwards like a meteor.

Clang!
Before it hit the ground, the blood-red sword that the expressionless fourth man had pulled out from his sleeve instantly chopped off the hideous purple jade head from bottom to top, cleanly and neatly!

"Iron Hand and the others did a good job. Those who commit crimes in the streets and arrest foreigners should be killed to serve as a warning to others. Even the so-called young master should not be exempted..."

On top of the city wall.

Jiang Wei, who was in charge of the "military affairs" department here, praised him.

"With these 'Four Famous Constables', the order in my 'Divine Capital' is much better now. It is not much worse than Baiyujing where the military commander is in charge. It is really a blessing..."

Wen Tianxiang, who was in charge of "government affairs", nodded and said while twisting his beard. (End of this chapter)
