Chapter 1261: New Emperor
Looking at the group of palaces that were like stars embedded in the starry sky, countless Great Golden Immortals and Immortal Kings were shocked.
Although this was just a group of palaces, why did they feel that just this group of palaces could easily kill them.
“Imperial Emperor’s weapon, this group of palaces is an Imperial Emperor’s weapon!” Countless people were shocked. Lu Xuan was generous enough to spend lots of money to refine his residential place into an Imperial Emperor’s weapon.
In other words, if this Imperial Emperor’s weapon was awakened at a critical moment, it could be considered an Imperial Emperor-level battle prowess.
What was grandeur? This was the true grandeur!
In comparison, the Roc King City and all were weak. This was the true grandeur of an Imperial Emperor.
Everyone could see the name on the plaque in the main hall.
Imperial Palace Lu!
Clearly, Lu Xuan had chosen his surname as his Cultivator’s name in the end. This was a precedent among many Imperial Emperors, and there were quite a few of them.
“From today onwards, I will enter the Heavenly Court and reside in Imperial Palace Lu. I will be Emperor Lu!”
Lu Xuan spoke slowly, his voice shaking the Heavens and Earth.
In the Heaven Realm, countless living beings trembled in fear as they prostrated themselves under the heavens.
Soon after, they felt countless Golden Flowers falling from the sky. When the Golden Flowers landed on their bodies, they immediately felt as if their entire bodies were undergoing a transformation, as if they were about to be reborn.
Those who had internal injuries within their bodies realized that their internal injuries had improved. The elderly realized that they had become much younger. Those who were physically weak realized that their bodies had actually become more vigorous.
In an instant, all the living beings in the Heaven Realm discovered the benefits of the Golden Flower. Combined with Lu Xuan’s sudden declaration, how could they not understand that this was a benefit given to them by the newly ascended Emperor Lu.
Immediately, they prostrated themselves and kowtowed in the direction of the Heavenly Court.
In the Heavenly Court, in front of the Imperial Palace Lu, countless Immortal Kings and Great Golden Immortals were dumbfounded when they saw Lu Xuan casting a spell to show mercy to the world. This kind of method seemed to have surpassed the limits of what an Imperial Emperor could do.
Since ancient times, other than Celestial Lord, no one ever heard of the Imperial Emperor doing this. This required the Law Of Life to be shaken and used to manifest the Original Supreme Energy’s Golden Flower. Just doing this step was very difficult.
Not to mention, it was even more challenging to influence the entire Heavenly Realm.
In the eyes of many people, Lu Xuan was even more unfathomable!
However, they could not verify their guesses because any Imperial Emperor was an incomparably powerful existence to them. The Imperial Emperor might know the strength and weaknesses of himself, but it wasn’t something they could learn.
After Lu Xuan entered the Heavenly Court, all the Immortal Kings came to pay their respects. However, they do not have that much face compared to facing Immortal King Han Lin instead.
When Immortal King Han Lin met with them, he would meet them one by one to show respect. However, Lu Xuan met with them all at the same time. Over a thousand Immortal Kings came to pay their respects to him. As for the other Great Golden Immortals, there was no need to even mention them. There were countless of them, and they could only pay their respects outside the Imperial Palace Lu, unable to enter.
Even if they were also experts in various places, they did not have any trump cards in front of Lu Xuan.
The coronation ceremony lasted for three days and three nights before it finally ended.
After the coronation, the first decree that Lu Xuan issued was the Power Centralization Decree.
Any Immortal King or Great Golden Immortal had to listen to the Order of the Heaven and join the Heavenly Court. No force was allowed to wander outside the Heavenly Court.
Many people were surprised by Lu Xuan’s order, but it was reasonable.
After all, Lu Xuan was faced with lots of killing intent along the way back then. It was impossible to say that he would not have any thoughts about this.
This was especially so for many Immortal Kings. Although they said that they were subordinates of the Heavenly Court, they were actually descendants of Emperor Clan. Hence, they were naturally loyal to the Emperor’s Clan. As for the order of the Heaven Court, they would only listen occasionally. Sometimes, they would give a face and go, but at times, they would not give any face and choose not to go.
In addition, the Moon Empress had been in seclusion for many years and did not care about the world’s affairs. This caused more and more people to be like this.
After all, in ancient times, the situation was already like this. Under the leadership of the Imperial Emperor, Emperor Clan, one by one, were like vassals who were separated from the outside world.
However, at that time, the Lord of the Heavenly Court was a Celestial Lord. Hence, these Emperor Clans did not dare to cause trouble. After the Celestial Lord left gradually, the Imperial Emperors took turns to govern. However, if it was an Imperial Emperor, they would not have such a strong binding force.
After all, these Emperor Clans felt that they were on the same level as Imperial Emperors. Although they still show respect to the Heavenly Court on the surface, in reality, the Heavenly Court couldn’t do anything to them.
Not only did these Emperor Clans stay in their small worlds and not show up for years, but it was also difficult to see them in the Heavenly Court’s Crusades. On the contrary, as Emperor Clan’s strength didn’t suffer any losses, they only became more robust as time passed. Other than a few representatives who traveled outside, they basically didn’t participate in many matters of the Heavenly Court.
Although they didn’t participate in the external expeditions of the Heavenly Court, they used Immortal Kings to continuously absorb all sorts of resources from the Heaven Realm to replenish the energy of Emperor Clan. Examples of such Immortal Kings included Nine Night Immortal King and Blazing Immortal King.
Many discerning eyes could see that these Emperor Clans were no different from parasites to the entire Heaven Realm. They would only take continuously without giving anything.
But since the Moon Empress didn’t care, the more the others wouldn’t have any ability to do so, especially in the Heavenly Court. Other than Immortal Kings like Nine Night Immortal King, Blazing Immortal King that directly belonged to the Emperor Clan, many Immortal Kings and the Emperor Clan have an unclear relationship too.
Among them, these relationships are so complicated that they can be said to be unbroken and disorderly.
Once this Power Centralization Decree was issued, it shook the Heaven Realm, including Emperor Clans.
This was the first Imperial Emperor to issue such a decree. This was because the Heavenly Court had never been a centralized power. The composition of the Heavenly Court itself was a tool used by the ten Great Celestial Lords to rule over all the worlds in the primordial era.
The ten Great Celestial Lords each occupied a region. In addition, the Celestial Lord from the various worlds was divided into different worlds. From the root, this was not a centralized power ruling.
Now that Lu Xuan was going to make a change and take all the power back to the Heavenly Court, it was easy to imagine how much of a stir it would cause in the Heaven Realm.
“Power Centralization Decree? But our Heaven Realm has never been a centralized power ruling. Our Heaven Realm has been able to prosper to this day, is by relying on independent development, not power centralization!”
An Immortal King was utterly dumbfounded. This decree was the most effective to an Immortal King. Initially, they were free and unfettered. They could hold down a place and ignore anyone. If they were unhappy, they could go into seclusion for tens of thousands of years.
It was challenging for the decree of the Order of the Heaven to have any effect on them.
But now, everything was about to change. In the future, bitter days would come.
