Chapter 1222: Chapter 1216: Armies at the Gates of the Eternal
"I have some cultivation techniques, weapons, elixirs, resources, and rare treasures in my possession. I shall place them all in the national treasury for the court to distribute uniformly in order to strengthen our national power!"
After Jia Xu departed, Qin Wudao took out several storage rings and flicked them with his finger, letting them fall in front of Zhuge Liang.
Within these storage rings were resources he had acquired from the inheritance of the Human Emperor.
However, not everything was taken out, only eighty percent.
Even so, it was an astonishing amount.
Zhuge Liang released his spirit to inspect the storage rings, and his previously calm expression froze instantly, his breathing becoming intensely heavy with excitement.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will put all these resources to their best use!"
Quickly, Zhuge Liang regained his composure and loudly promised.
Qin Wudao nodded.
He was thoroughly confident in ministers like Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, and Wang Jian, as not only was there no concern over corruption, but they could also better utilize the resources left by the Human Emperor.
If these resources are used well, the national power of the Qin Dynasty will see rapid growth.
"Issue an order for Wang Jian to form the Fourteenth Legion!"
Qin Wudao turned his head and commanded majestically.
"Your humble servant obeys!"
Wang Jian’s face lit up with joy, and he saluted with respect.
Forming a legion!
This is an honor for the top generals of the Qin Dynasty, symbolizing the sovereign’s trust, and is the aspiration of all generals.
In terms of his position, being a top-ranking official and Minister of War, he could mobilize all troops in the world, but he had no authority over each major main battle legion.
This demonstrates the high status of the main battle legions.
Within the Qin territory, the only one who can mobilize the main battle legions is Qin Wudao!
This is the prestige of the main battle legion!
Then, Qin Wudao discussed a few matters with the ministers and announced the court’s dismissal.
Without pause, he went directly to the Endless Palace.
"Primeval Creation Tower, manifest!"
Standing outside the Endless Palace, Qin Wudao’s thoughts moved, and in his palm appeared a ten-thousand-story high tower, exuding a gentle purple glow, grand and ancient.
The surface of the tower was inscribed with dozens of ancient divine patterns, any one of which could crush a world.
"Your Majesty, do you plan to place the tower inside the Endless Palace?"
Liu Bei asked.
"Indeed!"
Qin Wudao nodded, valuing the Primeval Creation Tower highly.
Because inside the tower, time flows at a hundred to one ratio.
One year outside equals a hundred years inside.
A truly exceptional cultivation artifact.
"Go!"
Qin Wudao thought for a moment, then waved his right hand, and the Primeval Creation Tower soared into the sky, enlarging in the firmament before settling within the Endless Palace.
Rumble.
The world trembled, and countless temporal and spatial turbulences arose, breaking apart and then reassembling, forming a special spacetime with a different time flow than the outside world, very mysterious.
"The energy seems insufficient!"
Qin Wudao examined the tower and found the internal spacetime unstable, and the time flow somewhat chaotic.
Activating the Primeval Creation Tower requires massive energy.
Even the Torch Academy cannot afford it.
After pondering a moment, Qin Wudao extracted several hundred pieces of chaos ore and placed them inside the Primeval Creation Tower.
As a result, as long as the chaos ore’s energy is not exhausted, the Primeval Creation Tower can remain activated, assisting the ruler and ministers of Qin in cultivation.
This is the joy of wealth.
Unlike the Torch Academy, which hides the Primeval Creation Tower underground and only dares to activate it during the new students’ grand competition.
"Let’s go, retreat for cultivation!"
After finishing all this, Qin Wudao flew into the top level of the Primeval Creation Tower to begin closed-door cultivation.
This time, in retreat, he intends to break through to the Dao Saint Realm.
The Qin Dynasty has little time remaining.
Hongjun!
Rule Domain!
Mysterious artifacts!
...
Mysterious Universe.
Deep within the vast starry sky.
A powerful army was stationed in the cosmos, clad in high-grade celestial armor, wielding celestial weapons, their expressions cold, surrounded by a terrifying aura of killing intent, capable of annihilating everything.
From a distance, they resembled a blood dragon, coiled amidst the stars, capable of laying waste to heaven and earth.
"Have we not found any civilization yet?"
At the forefront of the army, Bai Qi, holding a blood-red sword, gazed into the distant starry sky, filled with stars yet devoid of any signs of life.
They had left the Qin Dynasty over three years prior, traversed countless light-years, and explored innumerable worlds without encountering any trace of civilization.
In other words, they had been wandering the universe with their army for more than three years, without finding a single thing.
"No!"
The returning scout shook his head, reporting sullenly.
They were somewhat disheartened as they initially believed this expedition would lead to territorial expansion and the conquest of many civilizations, yet till now, they hadn’t even begun.
"Continue forward, to the next place!"
Bai Qi gritted his teeth and commanded coldly.
Beside him, Lv Bu, Li Yuanba, and Han Xin all showed traces of gloom, but more prominently, determination and resolve.
They couldn’t believe it.
In the vast universe, not finding a single civilization.
The army set forth!
At this moment, a stream of light flew from a distance. Bai Qi looked up, raising an eyebrow. Why is he here?
"State Preceptor, Generals!"
The newcomer was Jia Xu, clad in a dark red robe, like it had been soaked in blood, whose long gaze would chill one’s heart.
"Lord Jia!"
Gui Guzi saluted with curiosity, asking, "Why have you come to the frontline?"
"To resolve your urgent issues!"
Jia Xu replied, smiling, "This is the star map of the Mysterious Universe found by His Majesty, marking over a hundred civilizations, along with the coordinates of the Eternal Tribe!"
As he spoke, he took out the star map.
"Much obliged!"
Gui Guzi received the star map, glancing over it, showing excitement, "Let’s go to the Eternal Realm!"
Bai Qi, Lv Bu, Li Yuanba, and others, upon hearing this, perked up and hastily led the army to more distant spaces.
Watching the departing army, Jia Xu smiled faintly.
He was confident that with the guidance of the star map, the expeditionary forces would soon return with good news.
...
Time passed.
Five years elapsed swiftly.
After a long and arduous journey, the expeditionary forces finally reached the Starfield where the Eternal Realm was located, following the path on the star map.
On the surface, it appeared as a lifeless region, with only a few dead stars and no sign of vitality.
"Quite well-hidden indeed!"
"Shatter!"
Gui Guzi observed for a moment, pointing a finger, unleashing the power of dominion, emanating a brilliant ray accompanied by sacred might, shattering a vast swathe of the starry sky.
Boom!
The surrounding Starfield shook.
A starry rift spanning tens of thousands of miles opened up.
Through this starry rift, faintly visible were numerous twinkling stars, composing a massive galaxy cluster, exuding countless mighty auras.
Within lay the Eternal Realm!
Boom!
At that moment, a stream of light flew from the starry rift, standing above the stars, clad in a divine robe, wielding the staff of life, no less powerful, reaching the Peak of the Quasi-Saint Realm.
The Life Deity’s Attendant!
The attendant of the Creator God, also the first ancient tree of the Eternal Realm, mastering the Dao of Life.
Though his realm was only at the peak of the Quasi-Saint, his actual combat strength rivaled the Dao Saints.
He looked down upon Bai Qi and his group, his expression fierce, eyes filled with killing intent, coldly shouting, "Daring to shatter the crystal wall of the Eternal Realm, courting death!"
