I am Jiang Ming, the Eternal Demon Emperor

Chapter 855 The Prelude to a Big Battle
Jiang Ming checked the exchange rate and realized that he already had a lot of Dynasty Luck Value.

Because exchanging for Zhuge Liang only requires 3,000 Dynasty Luck Points.

Jiang Ming thought for a moment and then began exchanging items. What he needed now were some capable advisors. As for military generals, he didn't need them much.

Especially since this world is a world of Qi cultivation and immortality, most military generals, even those who know how to cultivate, will still only face certain death when they encounter those extraordinary people who know some unique skills and possess magical treasures and supernatural powers.

Therefore, Jiang Ming directly used three thousand Dynasty Luck Points to exchange for Zhuge Liang.

As soon as Jiang Ming successfully redeemed the item, a system notification sounded immediately.

[Zhuge Liang has awakened in the body of a deceased Celestial Immortal cultivator within the host's inner world. Please check your account.]

Then, Jiang Ming sensed that an extraterrestrial soul had descended upon the corpse of a Celestial Immortal cultivator who had died tragically in a battle within his inner world.

This cultivator was too naive in life and was betrayed and killed by his Daoist partner.

But he's dead, so be it. Now, he's a different person.

"Zhuge Liang, I now grant you a new life. From now on, you will be my strategist."

Jiang Ming's voice resounded in this person's heart. To Jiang Ming, the inner world was the Heavenly Dao, and he could speak directly to anyone.

What Zhuge Liang heard was like divine music.

"Kongming's rebirth is entirely thanks to Your Majesty. Your Majesty, please grant me three days to process some of my last wishes from my memories. I am willing to serve Your Majesty with utmost devotion until my dying breath."

Zhuge Liang knelt down and said.

"Alright. I'll give you five days. Ideally, you'll be able to control your current Qi Refining cultivation level."

Jiang Ming offered a reminder.

He hadn't expected that the person he received from the system would appear in this way. In that case, perhaps he could give it a try as a military general.

Then, Jiang Ming saw a famous general, Huo Qubing. He was actually worth four thousand enhancement points.

After redemption.

Jiang Ming heard the system notification sound again.

[Huo Qubing has awakened from the body of a Taiyi Golden Immortal cultivator in this world whose soul has just been scattered. Within a month, he will surely come to serve his host.]

Awesome, is this how you play?

Jiang Ming felt that the upgraded system was much more fun than the original one.

After thinking for a moment, he used another three thousand Dynasty Luck Points to exchange for Bai Qi and Han Xin.

I also used another 3,000 points to redeem Guan Zhong.

Guan Zhong: He helped Duke Huan of Qi become the first hegemon of the Spring and Autumn Period, and promoted reforms to enrich the country and strengthen its military. He is known in history as the "First Prime Minister of China".

I redeemed Zhang Liang with 3,000 points.

The civil officials all revived from the bodies of celestial beings.

Both Bai Qi and Huo Qubing were revived from the body of the Taiyi Golden Immortal.

This is interesting.

Next, Jiang Ming continued exchanging items, acquiring Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Ma Chao, Huang Zhong, and Zhao Yun for only 1,000 points each.

Li Jing of the Tang Dynasty, Yue Fei, Wei Qing, Xu Da, and Qi Jiguang of the Song Dynasty.
Xue Rengui and Li Mu.

There were also those with the talent of a king's advisor, such as Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui, as well as Liu Ji (Ming Dynasty).

Jiang Ming did not continue exchanging. He had already offended the Goddess Nuwa today, and the dynasty's fortune value was no longer stable.

However, while their luck was still good, they spent over 40,000 in one go.

If he weren't worried about expending too much energy and causing the dynasty to collapse, he would have bought more. This time, he's going to rely on cheat codes to have a good time in the early stages.

Half a month passed quickly.

Eight mysterious figures have secretly gathered around Jiang Ming. They are all historical figures summoned by Jiang Ming. Jiang Ming's requirement for them is that he will fully support them. Now they are beginning to familiarize themselves with some of the systems of the current Shang Dynasty.

Once they were familiar with each other, Jiang Ming would place them one by one into the imperial court, using a system of one civil official and five military officers.

In the present Shang Dynasty, Jiang Ming has complete control; everything is up to him. No one dares to disobey his orders.

Furthermore, Jiang Ming did not forget that his own cultivation was also very important.

To adapt to the laws and rules of this world, he must cultivate anew using the cultivation system of this world in order to completely deceive everyone.

In this way, the power of his Great Freedom Scripture will be further enhanced in the future.

Just half a month later, two of Jiang Ming's most treacherous subordinates took action again.

You Hun and Fei Zhong actually said they had found three beauties to present to Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming frowned; he knew it was bound to happen.

The Three Demons of Xuanyuan Tomb.

Those are all extraordinary creatures of heaven and earth, and they all had boundless potential. The nine-tailed fox spirit, the nine-headed pheasant spirit, the jade pipa spirit.

All three of them were at the Golden Immortal level, and could have lived freely and roamed the world. However, they have now been caught up in this great calamity.

In order to legitimately enter the human dynasty and avoid being suppressed by the dynasty's fortune, the three of them went to great lengths, pretending to be three accomplished fairies who wanted to join the Shang dynasty to serve.

Because Jiang Ming recently issued a recruitment order, seeking talented people from all over the country to be given important positions.

In addition, Jiang Ming also brought out some special items: corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, jujube trees, as well as seeds and saplings of various vegetables and fruits.

Regardless, these things are within Jiang Ming's inner world.

This time, Jiang Ming wanted to experience what it felt like to fight against fate, and he would go all out. He wanted to see whether those people would bring down his Great Shang Dynasty or make it even stronger. He planned to fight his way from the current Southern Continent to the Eastern Continent and the Western Continent.

Develop the population, develop the economy, develop science and technology, and gather talents from all over the world.

He wanted to introduce the technology of future generations.

Even more so, it requires integrating into the technology and cultivation civilization of the Eternal Starfield within the world of Shrouding the Heavens.

It turns out that everything in that world was merely below the level of immortals.

However, Jiang Ming had already developed his own weapons, including mechs and spaceships, capable of producing Celestial Immortals, Golden Immortals, and even Taiyi Golden Immortals.

He possesses countless memories, his cultivation experiences over the years, and an inner world used for experiments, where many civilizations have actually advanced to a very high level.

Now, finally, everything has come in handy.

Jiang Ming is ready to exchange for a batch of scientific and technological talents.

He's going to make a big splash.

As for the three demons from Xuanyuan Tomb, Jiang Ming readily accepted them. Knowing they were restless and would likely cause trouble, he was certain they would sabotage him.

Therefore, he suppressed the three of them immediately and then used a secret soul technique to control their lives.

Nuwa wouldn't control them in this way. After all, Nuwa was not only the Holy Mother of the human race but also revered as a Holy Mother by the demon race. This is because her innate form was half-snake and half-human.

However, Jiang Ming has gotten a good deal now, and he doesn't mind using this method to capture the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb.

No matter how beautiful or dangerous they may be, or how many wicked schemes they may possess, they are now merely pawns in his game. In the blink of an eye, he can inflict unbearable pain upon them, or even cause their souls to be scattered.

In this way, the three of them would be considered one of his own. They could also help him manage the harem in the future. Let's see if there are any fools who have been deceived and controlled by outsiders.
