I picked up the scattered attributes

"The Dao Platform Realm..."

Feng Xia did seem to have thought of something. He nodded, a thoughtful expression on his face.

At this moment, he finally exhausted the essence and spirit of this body, and began to gradually dissipate into spiritual light.

The woman rushed forward frantically, but failed to grab anything.

The inspiration vanished completely, leaving only a soft laugh in everyone's ears:

"I see, everyone... See you in the next playthrough!"

……

Chapter 0314

The Lingyun Era is 3,650 years old.

Blessed by the four great kings and filled with the eager anticipation of countless people, the sixteenth prince of Lingyun Kingdom was born into the world. On this day, auspicious omens descended from the heavens, illuminating the vast expanse, making it a day worth remembering for all.

On this very day, a mysterious old Taoist priest, with an air of otherworldly grace, arrived at the Lingyun Imperial Palace, carrying a whisk and riding on auspicious clouds.

"Amitabha."

The old Taoist priest said something that caused Emperor Lingyun to be so moved that he personally appeared to receive him.

Not long after, Emperor Lingyun issued an imperial edict, which was proclaimed throughout the land, appointing the sixteenth prince as the crown prince and the old Taoist priest as the new national teacher, who would also serve as the crown prince's grand tutor.

In addition, a series of government orders were subsequently issued.

The imperial edict caused a sensation throughout the land!

It is no exaggeration to say that this is a major event that could shake the entire Lingyun Kingdom!

Therefore, soon a group of officials submitted a joint memorial, pleading with Emperor Lingyun to rescind his decision.

Furthermore, the Third Prince bluntly stated that the old Taoist priest's origins were unknown, and that appointing him as the Imperial Preceptor and the Crown Prince's Grand Tutor might lead to a decline in the Lingyun Kingdom's fortunes in the near future!

The concept of destiny is not entirely unfounded.

A strong nation is a strong nation.

When a nation's power declines, its fortunes also decline.

The Lingyun Kingdom is currently enjoying an unprecedented period of prosperity. If it chooses the right path, it may surpass its peak, transcend the Xuan Yuan Great World, and reach the vast universe.

But what if you take the wrong path...

After the peak comes the possibility of decline!

The cycle of nature is eternal and unchanging.

Therefore, in the eyes of many, although the eldest prince was mediocre and his performance in various aspects was not outstanding, the emperor had already established a crown prince when the sixteenth prince had just been born, and even found a Taoist priest of unknown origin to serve as the crown prince's tutor, and even the national advisor...

This is simply sowing the seeds of a huge disaster!

"The Third Prince is right. Although we do not know what methods that sorcerer used, His Majesty is a great emperor throughout the ages, and we believe that you will be able to detect the anomaly!"

More veteran officials who followed Emperor Lingyun stepped forward to offer their advice.

Who would have thought that the usually wise and powerful Emperor Lingyun would be so stubborn on this matter, showing no intention of changing his mind no matter how much everyone tried to persuade him.

In a fit of shock and rage, the Third Prince threw off his court robes and stormed out of the court in front of everyone, declaring to all that he would never set foot in the capital again unless His Majesty the Emperor changed his mind!

"My dear minister, you've probably been blinded by thieves!"

"Your Majesty, you are the one who has been blinded!"

Even though His Majesty the Emperor personally chased after him out of the palace, the Third Prince still showed no sign of backing down. He even publicly declared that everything he had done, and the hard work of most of his life, was for the prosperity of Lingyun Kingdom.

"My heart and my will are true. If there is even the slightest falsehood, I, Lu Hua, will be punished by heaven and die a horrible death!"

On this very day.

The Third Prince had just returned to his residence from the palace and hadn't even had time to pack his things to leave when suddenly the sky was filled with turbulent winds and clouds. Terrifying lightning ripped through the heavens and struck the Third Prince, who had just returned, squarely in the midst of thunder and lightning!

That night, the Third Prince's cultivation was completely exhausted, and he died from his injuries.

"My dear minister, I am deeply grieved, deeply saddened that my Lingyun Kingdom has lost a loyal subject—"

Because of the oath made by the Third Prince, there were quite a few witnesses. In order to quell the turmoil, His Majesty the Emperor specially ordered that the matter be handled discreetly, allowing the Third Prince, Lu Hua, to be laid to rest.

Thus, the turmoil finally came to an end.

Despite various rumors circulating that the new imperial advisor was jealous of the prince's talent and plotted to kill him, the lack of evidence meant these were merely gossips and could not be believed by most people.

After that, His Majesty the Emperor faced no further obstacles, and his decrees were delivered smoothly to every corner of Lingyun Kingdom.

At the same time, the sixteenth prince, who received countless blessings, finally grew up under the spotlight. He was precocious and could run around freely when he was only a month old, often causing chaos in the palace.

What troubled His Majesty the Emperor was that the sixteenth prince, who was showered with love and affection, showed absolutely no interest in cultivation, and dared not even listen to his father, the Emperor, except for the Crown Prince's tutor.

"Very well, the Imperial Advisor is a remarkable person. Since he said there is no problem, there is probably no problem."

Very quickly, His Majesty the Emperor turned his attention elsewhere.

Thanks to a series of policies implemented previously, Lingyun Kingdom, which had reached an unprecedented stage of development, not only did not show any signs of decline, but instead went even further, showing signs of rivaling Xuantian Sect, Xingyue Demon Sect, and others!

It is precisely for this reason that some ministers who were originally in the same camp as the Third Prince and opposed the new Grand Tutor's ascension to the throne have now all fallen silent.

On the very day that the sixteenth prince turned two years old, he wandered aimlessly to the Taiye Pond in the Imperial Garden.

"Your Highness, I want fried chicken tonight!"

Suddenly, a carp leaped out of the water, spoke in human language, and sprayed the sixteenth prince with water.

The young sixteenth prince was terrified and fled back home in a panic. He quickly informed His Majesty the Emperor of the matter. Upon learning of this, His Majesty the Emperor summoned the Imperial Advisor, and the two talked in the Imperial Study all night long.

Not long after, someone noticed that the carp in Taiye Pond had been replaced without anyone noticing, and several managers involved in the matter had also vanished overnight.

However, this was just a minor incident.

When the sixteenth prince was three years old, the three major universities in the capital were merged, and His Majesty the Emperor personally selected a management team to clean up and organize various classic texts.

The entire process lasted a full year.

The year after that, the number of new students enrolled in the new academy exceeded the total number of students enrolled in the previous three academies combined!

In the fifth year, the Imperial Advisor represented Lingyun Kingdom as an envoy to Xuantian Sect. Thirty-three days later, the Imperial Advisor returned with the alliance treaty, the misunderstanding between the two forces was finally resolved, and a preliminary alliance was formed.

In the sixth year, the Imperial Preceptor was sent as an envoy to the Star Moon Demonic Sect, intending to forge a friendly alliance, but he was ambushed by the sect and tragically died in their clutches. His Majesty the Emperor was furious and mobilized a large army overnight, personally leading the expedition. He passed through Xuan Tian Zhong and clashed fiercely with the Star Moon Demonic Sect!

In response, the Star Moon Demon Sect retaliated, with even a Divine Realm expert appearing on the battlefield, intending to assassinate the emperor of Lingyun Kingdom.

In the eighth year, Emperor Lingyun inadvertently fell into an ambush. In the ensuing battle, all his troops were defeated and killed, and the emperor himself nearly perished.

But on this very day, Emperor Lingyun suddenly displayed his divine cultivation and launched a powerful counterattack, killing the demon god of the demonic sect on the spot!

That year, the world was shaken!

In the 3,658th year of the Lingyun Calendar, the Lingyun Kingdom of the Xuanyuan World finally joined the ranks of divine kingdoms!

……

Chapter 0315

His Majesty the Emperor has bestowed titles upon the gods!

Before this, there had been various rumors that His Majesty the Emperor had been deified and was capable of bringing Lingyun Kingdom to unprecedented heights.

However, the rumors were just rumors and were never confirmed.

His Majesty the Emperor's cultivation level, as he has always presented himself, has remained unchanged at the eighth level of the Divine Bridge Realm for so many years.

Some say that His Majesty suffered a serious injury in his early years, which affected his foundation of cultivation. As a result, his primordial spirit is stuck before the Divine Bridge and he has never been able to ascend the Divine Bridge to reach a higher realm.

It is precisely for this reason that the sixteenth prince is placed on high hopes.

Now, His Majesty the Emperor has displayed divine cultivation and even killed the Demon God of the Star Moon Demon Sect in one fell swoop, making the prestige of Lingyun Kingdom soar into the starry sky and shaking one surrounding world after another!

This is the most important event of all, the number one event in Lingyun Kingdom!

On this day of this year, Lingyun Kingdom joined the ranks of the divine kingdoms.

"Imperial Advisor, will everything you've described really happen?"

The fall of a demon god is an unbearable pain even for the Star Moon Demon Sect. In addition, the Lingyun Kingdom is highly motivated to fight, and the longer the conflict drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for them.

To everyone's surprise, Emperor Lingyun, whose momentum was at its peak, did not pursue them. Instead, he symbolically wiped out some disciples of the Demonic Sect, then sounded the retreat and led his troops to withdraw back to the Xuan Yuan Great World.

The Star Moon Demon Sect breathed a sigh of relief and immediately promised that they would never invade Lingyun Kingdom again within a hundred years.

A great battle has come to an end.

No one knew that His Majesty the Emperor returned to the capital not long after. He first went to meet the Sixteenth Prince. This youngest prince was still the same as before, proficient in everything except cultivation, eating, drinking and having fun.

When Emperor Lingyun went to find him, the sixteenth prince was dressed in women's clothing and was secretly mingling among a group of palace maids.

However, upon seeing this scene, Emperor Lingyun not only did not get angry, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"My child, this is all I can do for you as your father."

His Majesty the Emperor shook his head and left, soon arriving at an ordinary household.

He activated his cultivation, transforming into an ordinary middle-aged man, and paid a visit to the man of the house to meet him.

"Imperial Preceptor, are you really planning to retire?"
