Lord of the Earth

"what?"

"This ruler of Qianxia actually made such a vow?"

"What a bold spirit, what audacity, what great ambition!"

"Is he going to make an enemy of all the true gods? I think Qian Xia has gone mad!"

Summer's earth-shattering ambition to "build a heavenly court," along with the extraordinary phenomenon of the "Ascension Tribulation," had already spread to every corner of the Eternal Land and reached the ears of billions of races.

The shock it caused was no less than his previous feat of "severing the arm of the Blood Clan God with his sword"!

A power with a destiny that has just forged its "immortal foundation" dares to openly declare that it will embark on the ultimate path of "forging a heavenly court" and establish a "heavenly court" that will rule over all races and control the order of heaven and earth.
what does this mean?
This means that Qianxia will be at odds with all those who attempt to disrupt or even supersede the order.

This includes not only those alien gods who covet the Eternal Land and are high above others, but may even include human powerhouses with different ideologies and extreme actions!
To countless forces, this was nothing short of a mad act that led to their own destruction!
Although the Celestial Dynasty was powerful, it was only comparable to the "Divine Court" of the True God.

No matter how profound Qianxia's foundation is, how can it compare to the numerous true gods who have accumulated over countless years in all the heavens and myriad realms?

Such vows, in the eyes of onlookers, can only be described as "arrogant".

"Arrogant?"

During the reign of Emperor Qianxia, ​​standing atop the altar of Heaven, Xia Tian felt an invisible tremor and doubt emanating from all directions of the Eternal Land… yet his heart remained clear and unwavering.

"Having chosen to embark on the 'Path of Destiny,' 'Forging the Heavenly Court' is both a natural duty and the ultimate pursuit!"

The records on the "Forging the Heavenly Court" scroll flashed silently through his mind.

The Celestial Dynasty is not the end of the path of destiny. Only by forging a unique "Heavenly Court" can one truly wield the power of heaven and earth over the "Eternal Land" and establish an order that all realms shall abide by!

This path is naturally extremely difficult, because there can only be one Heavenly Court.

Once the human race is forged, the "Divine Court" Dao of the other true gods will be suppressed and may even be required to submit to the rule of the Heavenly Court.

This is absolutely intolerable to the true god who is used to being high above and looking down on all living beings, and will surely do everything in his power to stop it!
However, Xia Tian dared to make such a vow, naturally because she had something to rely on!

That is, the eternal will.

Although the eternal will seems somewhat "powerless" in the face of the true god, it is because this world has only been formed for a short time, and all living beings are unable to unite their own thoughts due to the "schemes" of the gods!
In fact, the combined power of the billions of beings in the Eternal Land, whose wills are gathered together, is something that no ordinary true god can suppress.

Once Qianxia is able to "receive" the mandate of heaven and gather these living beings together, why would he need to worry about those ordinary true gods?

Therefore, although Xia Tian's words were somewhat "arrogant," they were extremely "to his liking" for the "eternal will" itself.

The grand vision contained in this oath—to "establish a heart for heaven and earth, to establish a destiny for the people, and to create peace for all generations"—is precisely the answer that can most move the "eternal will."

I, Qianxia, ​​am willing to uphold this supreme destiny with the great aspiration and determination to safeguard the order of this world and bring blessings to all races and beings!
Then.

Eternal Will, are you satisfied with this answer?
"good!"

As if confirming summer's belief, the blurred "face" manifested by that eternal will, after a moment of silence, finally uttered a clear and unmistakable voice of will, full of recognition and approval!
The next moment, heaven and earth rejoiced.

The threefold grand reward, imbued with the supreme authority and creation of "Heaven, Earth, and Man," descended from the darkness, beginning to completely transform and elevate the entire Qianxia.

First Reward: The Authority of Heaven!
"Om-!"

The newly formed Qianxia Immortal Dynasty's National Guardian Immortal Seal burst forth with unparalleled glazed light... and the color of the light directly surpassed the five colors that a newly established immortal dynasty should have, reaching the level of six colors!
The six colors represent the ultimate true gods.

This means that although Qian Xia has just been promoted, he is already considered a "top-tier divine court" in the eyes of the Eternal Land!
This glazed divine light was not static, but flowed like a living thing, instantly connecting and merging with the celestial laws, the illusory images of the sun, moon, and stars, and the trajectories of wind, clouds, rain, and dew within the Qianxia territory!
Holding the "Immortal Seal" in the summer, Xia Tian felt an unprecedented sense of control surge into his heart.

With a slight thought, the chaotic clouds above Qianxia, ​​caused by the great battle, were instantly organized by an invisible hand, transforming into auspicious clouds that exuded a deadly attraction. Immediately, all sorts of "alien" spirit birds born from the Eternal Land flocked towards Qianxia...

His thoughts shifted again, and in a certain arid frontier region, clouds naturally gathered, bringing timely rain. "Spiritual springs" emerged from the earth, and countless eternal creatures, as if summoned, swam over in dense numbers from rivers, lakes, and seas...

This was the prototype of "the power of heaven".

Within the territory of Qianxia, ​​Xia Tian, ​​as the ruler of the Immortal Dynasty, can arbitrarily mobilize the laws of heaven and earth and exercise part of the authority of "heaven". This means that as long as no true god-level power forcibly intrudes and distorts the rules, the Qianxia territory is almost "invincible"!
And this is just the beginning!
A six-colored, shimmering light suddenly merged into the "Heavenly Net," which covered the entire area of ​​Qianxia's fortune, signifying a dramatic change in the "Spiritual Realm Heavenly Net," one of the core elements of Qianxia.

Immediately, the spiritual realm, which had previously been in an "illusory" state, manifested throughout Qianxia...

In particular, some of the characters originally created by Qian Xia as "NBC" suddenly developed sentience and became living beings in the true sense of the word!
Manipulating creation—this represents the ultimate authority of Heaven…

The authority of the Skynet itself also broke through the boundaries of Qianxia, ​​and along certain causes and conditions, fate... it spread towards the entire human region of the Eternal Land!
Then, the second reward is the authority over the land!

"Boom—!"

As the power of heaven descended, a more joyful and powerful pulsation resounded from the depths of the entire Qianxia territory. The network of eleven innate spiritual roots took deep root, bringing the earth "alive."

Immediately afterwards, a strange scene unfolded across the territory of Qianxia:

The once tranquil mountains, lakes, forests, and even a vacant lot in a corner of the city suddenly rippled like water.

One after another, the secret realms, caves, ruins, and entrances to small worlds, some dilapidated, some intact, and some exuding the aura of different civilizations, are forced to manifest themselves in the world like islands emerging from the deep sea!
"This is... the hidden 'realm of destiny' and 'ancestral land of inheritance' of the remnants of the alien races we defeated?"

"And those ancient ruins hidden by the alien races, where nothing has been discovered yet!"

Qianxia and his men were taken aback at first, then their eyes gleamed, especially the Embroidered Uniform Guards who were all sharpening their knives!

The Eternal Land was originally formed from fragments of countless worlds. Many defeated alien forces did not completely perish, but instead lingered on in the last secret realm, occasionally harassing other worlds.

Now, under the blessing of the eternal will and the scrutiny of the "authority of the earth," all these hidden "nails" have been removed and exposed!
"Oh no! Our clan's last refuge!"

"The fortune is dissipating! The ancestral spirits are wailing!"

"Do not--!"

From those secret realms that were forced to reveal themselves, the desperate cries of the survivors of various races echoed.

Within the "secret core" upon which they rely to maintain their last remaining fortune and inheritance, are the spirits of fortune or the "belief totems" of the divine path that were born.

At this moment, they are completely exposed to the "earth" domain of Qianxia, ​​as if they were standing naked in the icy snow!
"Submit! Or be annihilated!"

The figure of the "Human God Lord," the spirit of Qianxia's fortune, appeared even clearer and more majestic on the ever-expanding sea of ​​fortune clouds.

Holding the God-Slaying Whip, a boundless will imbued with the will of the Celestial Dynasty and eternal permission swept across the core of all manifested secret realms like an invisible wave. The spirits of fortune and ancestral totems of those alien races, suppressed by a higher level of authority and power, could hardly muster any thoughts of resistance.

Their light quickly dimmed and subsided, eventually transforming into streams of light of various colors, like rivers flowing into the sea, actively merging into the ranks of the human god-king, becoming "subordinate spirits" in the fortune system of the Qianxia Immortal Dynasty!
This is a forced "geopolitical integration," with the tacit approval and support of an eternal will.

Within the Qianxia Immortal Dynasty, no independent forces of destiny other than those affiliated with it are allowed to exist. Qianxia's territorial rule has achieved a true and unprecedented level of unity, from the material level to the level of destiny.

From then on, there were no more obstacles or hidden dangers, and this was still only a part of the "power over the land"!

At the same time, a mysterious power was injected into the "business alliance" that Qianxia had already established and that was spread all over the place.

The "Merchant Alliance Flag," symbolizing trade authority, shone brightly, revealing even more complex and mysterious Dao patterns and a shimmering, glass-like light!

In an instant, all the merchants holding official trade certificates of Qianxia, ​​the envoys of various powers, and so on, felt that they had formed a deeper connection with an invisible "trade network" that covered the entire Eternal Land!

A sudden realization dawned on me.

With this certificate, one will be protected by a "neutral passage protection" originating from the world itself when engaging in trade activities in most areas of the Eternal Land.

In non-extreme circumstances, it is difficult for other forces to directly attack or plunder the legitimate caravans of the "Merchant Alliance"!

This is a "trade privilege" granted to Qianxia by the Eternal Land—a relatively safe right to cross-regional commerce. This means that Qianxia can use commercial means to more safely and effectively penetrate its influence throughout the Eternal Land, accumulating resources, information, and allies for the future "forging of the Heavenly Court," opening a crucial channel!

The third reward: Human authority!
Finally, and most transformative, came the most profound change for the people of Qianxia.

After fulfilling its gift to "Heaven" and "Earth," the seven-colored beam of light suddenly burst open, transforming into endless, fine yet incredibly warm golden rain of light, which gently and evenly fell upon every living being within the Qianxia territory who recognized Qianxia and was protected by its fortune.

Whether human, elf, dwarf, or other subjugated races, regardless of gender, age, or cultivation level!
"This is... the eternal will of heaven and earth opening a 'gate to immortality' for us!"

The moment the light rain touched their bodies, countless people shuddered, feeling a kind of innate, invisible yet real "shackle" or "upper limit barrier" crack, which then began to loosen and dissolve!
Everyone can be a dragon!

One of the fundamental rules of the Eternal Land is that transcendence is extremely difficult to achieve.

To break through the mundane and enter the extraordinary realm, one needs extremely high talent, opportunity, or bloodline, and even more importantly, a sufficiently high "rating" (silver or above)!
This results in extraordinary beings being a minority of elites in any faction, except for the supreme races.

But now, under the reward of "human authority".

All the people of Qianxia have undergone a collective baptism and sublimation of their life essence. Their talents and potential have been enhanced, their cultivation limits have been expanded, and the "mortal barrier" that once separated countless people throughout their lives has become extremely thin!
This means that as long as one is willing to work hard and has the right techniques and resources, almost everyone in Qianxia can hope to enter the extraordinary realm!
However, the ultimate height one can reach still depends on the individual.

However, the starting point has been raised to a terrifying level by the Eternal Will. Just imagine how terrifying the foundation, potential, and war potential of a civilization with tens of trillions of potential superhumans would be.

Even if a true god can modify the rules to carry out a wide-ranging annihilation, any hostile force would have to weigh the terrifying consumption and backlash when faced with a "Transcendent Sea" of such size, which is also partially protected by the laws of the Celestial Dynasty and the authority of Heaven and Earth.

But this is still not the end!
Secondly, the light rain permeated the official schools, armories, and research institutes in various places. Many officials, craftsmen, and soldiers were enlightened by the light rain, and their previously obscure knowledge suddenly became clear, and their bottlenecks in skills were suddenly broken through.

Some even activated their spiritual energy on the spot, crossed that crucial step, and transcended the ordinary to become saints!

The light rain, containing the blessings of "humanity," also focused on pouring into special buildings in Qianxia that involved "humanity."

For example, the "Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends Conferring Gods Stele," which stands in the center of Baiyujing and is inscribed with the link between the Qianxia official system and fortune, also reveals a "glassy color" in its radiance.

This signifies that the deity has gained the approval of Heaven and Earth and can be officially recognized, reaching the level of a true god!

In addition, a powerful force of heaven and earth merged into a special building that was shrouded in Qianxia's fortune cloud sea, making it vaguely resembling a "city"!
"Boom—!"

Finally, as the light of the triple reward symbolizing "Heaven, Earth, and Man" gradually faded, a continuous, vibrant, and powerful roar filled the entire Qianxia region.

The network of eleven innate spiritual roots was completely stabilized, and the immortal spiritual energy flowed through the earth's veins like a river.

The people of Qianxia clearly felt that they had established a new connection with the land beneath their feet, the sky above their heads, and the civilization community called "Qianxia," a connection of blood and shared destiny.

They understood that a new era had begun with their own hands and their unwavering faith in humanity!
"Look! What's that?!"

Finally, someone exclaimed, pointing to the sky above Baiyujing.

The phantom of the Immortal City, the "manifestation artifact of destiny" of Qianxia, ​​which had been shattered and nearly annihilated during the previous attack by the True God in order to protect the nation's destiny, was actually reassembled and reshaped from countless points of light under the infusion of the seven-colored pillar of light and the destiny of the Immortal Dynasty!
Moreover, after undergoing the extreme tempering of "nine times of shattering and nine times of rebirth", the magnificent city wall, palace and pavilion of this symbolic city of Qianxia suddenly exuded a warm, solid "glazed divine light" that seemed to contain the meaning of life and death and reincarnation!
The Immortal City, reborn from the ashes, has also leaped to the level of a six-colored "top-tier true god"!
At this moment, the Immortal City not only possesses defensive capabilities far exceeding those of the past, but also exhibits some characteristics of "suppressing national destiny and being impervious to all laws." Suspended above the Qianxia Qi Fortune Cloud Sea, it acts like a stabilizing force, making the Qi Fortune of the entire Immortal Dynasty more stable and concentrated than ever before!
"Qianxia has indeed stepped into the Immortal Dynasty level, and has even become a top-tier Immortal Dynasty... It even has the potential to be promoted to a supreme Immortal Dynasty!"

On the altar, Xia Tian felt the "Human Emperor's Dao Fruit" within his body, which was almost completely perfect, as stable as a mountain, and radiating immortal golden light. He also felt the vast authority emanating from the "National Guardian Immortal Seal" in his hand, which emitted "six colors" and even faintly emitted seven colors. His heroic spirit soared to the heavens!
"The Great Way is the foundation, the people are the bricks, the heroic spirits are the pillars, and merit is the crown!"

He raised the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword in his hand once again.

The sword's blade now reflects not only the sun, moon, and stars, but also the vast landscape and countless people!
"Today, the universe is settled, and destiny has been bestowed! From this day forward, our Qianxia Dynasty will ascend to become a top-tier immortal dynasty, ruling over the eight wastelands, existing alongside the Dao, and living as long as the heavens!"

The voice emanating from his mouth resonated with the fortune of the Immortal Dynasty and the laws of heaven and earth, transforming into a Daoist sound that seemed to create the world, spreading to every corner of the newly born Immortal Dynasty.

"Celestial Dynasty! Celestial Dynasty! Celestial Dynasty!!!"

This time, the cheers surpassed any previous ones.

It was a cry born from the sublimation of the essence of life, a firm belief in the infinite future of its own civilization, and the supreme glory of being a member of the "Great Xia Immortal Dynasty"!

On the walls of Baiyujing, warriors brandished their weapons amidst cheers, announcing the official arrival of a new era for the Celestial Dynasty belonging to Qianxia.

On the battlefield, Lu Bu, wounded yet with ever brighter eyes, rode on Red Hare and smiled at Gao Shun, who was also fighting a bloody battle. Everything was understood without words.

Yang Jian withdrew his Dharma form, looked at the Immortal Seal in Xia Tian's hand, and nodded slightly.

Sun Wukong scratched his head, chuckling, his fiery eyes gleaming with excitement at seeing something interesting.

The figure of the great god Hou Yi also stands in the battle map, nodding slightly, his arrow intent returning to silence... Lü Dongbin and the Eight Immortals stand with smiles, their immortal postures outstanding!
"These humans actually have some skills?"

The Bull Demon King, now in his original form, grinned and exhaled breath that resembled surging clouds. With just one breath, he annihilated a group of alien troops on the ground who had lost the "spirit of fortune" effect and whose strength had been greatly reduced!

"The first Celestial Dynasty of Destiny in the Eternal Land? The Human Race Yue really has some ambition?"

Having destroyed his opponent's quasi-true godhood, the Golden-Winged Roc transformed into human form, clad in magnificent plumage, with sharp eyes.

"This is a descendant of Yu. How much of yourself do you resemble in him?"

The Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Saintess of Qingqiu gazed at Xia Tian, ​​bathed in the radiance of the Celestial Dynasty, her eyes sparkling with emotion, seemingly quite gratified...

Within that chaotic crystal, the little beast's phantom seemed completely soothed by the vast joy and new life, then slowly closed its eyes and entered a warm slumber, appearing peaceful and serene! (End of Chapter)
