I wield power with my innate talents, and forge the Heavenly Court.

Chapter 114 Observing in Secret: Foundation and Plans
As Chen Zhengyang entered a meditative state once more, he felt as if he had truly entered a red divine light and become a part of it.

Therefore, when he felt this red glow, Chen Zhengyang did not feel fear, but instead felt a warmth all over his body.

A sense of security arose spontaneously, as if I was surrounded by my comrades-in-arms.

No matter what, they are his solid support, someone he can entrust his back to with peace of mind.

At the same time, he also felt a chilling aura amidst that red, which stirred his heart and made him wish he could go to the battlefield now, fight the enemy, kill the enemy, make merit, and be promoted.

As time went on, the surrounding red light began to gradually reflect and complement it, and the illusory lotus flower that he had visualized, which was originally clear and transparent, began to gradually take on a red hue.

"Eh~?"

Outside Lanzhou, in the camp of the People's Salvation Army, Wang Chao, who was resting, suddenly opened his eyes and looked south towards Gongchang Prefecture.

"interesting?"

Feeling the palpable aura of the army emanating from the new barracks, Wang Chao murmured to himself.

He then calmed his mind and carefully observed Chen Zhengyang's condition.

At this moment, a part of Chen Zhengyang's mind had merged and combined with the surrounding evil energy.

Wisps of dark red malevolent energy were slowly being drawn into his consciousness.

The dynasty's mind attached itself to the evil energy and then entered its consciousness space.

A phantom lotus flower, swaying gently, is slowly absorbing the dark red malevolent energy, gradually turning red and becoming more solid.

However, it seems to lack some kind of foundation, and its essence cannot be completely solidified into substance and permanently fixed.

It's likely that the lotus flower will collapse when Chen Zhengyang finishes his meditation.

At most, some spiritual power that has been fused with malevolent energy will feed back a portion of its power to the body and soul, tempering them to a certain extent.

However, the essence of the surrounding army's malevolent aura was the spiritual power that contained the remnants of countless soldiers' consciousness, transformed by spiritual energy.

Even if it has become relatively pure, the lingering consciousness has been eroded and worn away.

However, their understanding of the army, soldiers, military rules and discipline has been integrated into a characteristic of the army's intimidating aura.

Therefore, while integrating the military's fierce spirit and spiritual power to temper and refine the soul, it also subtly erodes it.

If one's will is strong enough, one may become a fierce warrior with independent thought, who firmly upholds the rules and discipline of the People's Salvation Army, remaining steadfast and unwavering until death.

If one's will is not strong enough, the most likely outcome is that one becomes a puppet of the army's killing intent, mechanically following military rules and regulations, instinctively training, etc., but without self-awareness or consciousness.

The reason why the regular army of the Salvation Army was able to integrate and mobilize the iron-blooded evil energy was precisely because it had the Heavenly Status as its foundation, which was used to withstand and block the impact, erosion and assimilation of the iron-blooded evil energy.

Even so, they could not remain in the excessively dense aura of iron and blood for long periods of time, and the dynasty needed to transfer and remove the excess aura after their battles.

Without the support of one's innate destiny, few people could withstand the impact of malevolent energy for an extended period.

In fact, under the current circumstances, it is impossible to do so.

Unless the universe is elevated further, they will be able to condense the things they contemplate into tangible things that can exist for a long time, that is, an existence similar to the status of heaven and earth.

Currently, apart from the dynasty, which can forcibly break the limitations of heaven and earth and condense the celestial status by relying on its limit-breaking and eternal talents, it is probably impossible for others to do so.

Perhaps those who possess the Heavenly Status can use the power to break limits and achieve permanence contained within to slowly overcome some of the limitations of heaven and earth, but others probably have no chance at all.

In fact, even the old abbot Shouxuzi, seemingly with a thought, could see the lotus flower in his consciousness space.

But that's only because, after forty years of meditation and contemplation, he has integrated it into his instincts and made it deep within his soul.

Therefore, he can instantly concentrate and visualize, condensing a spiritual lotus flower illusion in his consciousness space.

However, although it can instantly visualize a lotus flower in one's mind.

However, it is still just a mental image. Once one awakens from meditation and shifts their attention, the lotus flower in their mind will instantly disappear.

"Lack of foundation?"

Sensing Chen Zhengyang's state, Wang Chao couldn't help but ponder to himself.

After some time, just as Wang Chao had predicted, when Chen Zhengyang finished his meditation, the illusory lotus flower in his consciousness space instantly collapsed.

Countless dark red spiritual energies spread out in all directions, some merging into his illusory soul, and some dispersing into various parts of his body.

Of course, this is ultimately just a fusion of malevolent energy and spiritual power, and its effects are primarily on the mental level.

Therefore, the spiritual energy that spread throughout the body at most washes away the fatigue from daytime exercise and slightly nourishes the body's essence.

The power that merges into the soul is entirely different. It not only refines the soul but also strengthens its power, bringing clarity and understanding to the mind.

However, this pleasant feeling only lasts for a moment.

The next instant, Chen Zhengyang felt a sharp pain in his head, as if he had been punched hard, and his mind went blank.

After a while, Chen Zhengyang gradually recovered, clutching his still throbbing head, and slowly lay down on the bed.

After quite some time, all the discomfort finally disappeared completely.

Lying in bed, Chen Zhengyang felt wide awake, his mind clear, and he gained a clearer understanding of the purpose, military rules and discipline of the People's Salvation Army.

However, Chen Zhengyang didn't think much of it, assuming it was because his mind was clearer after the meditation.

Over the next two days, Wang Chao observed Chen Zhengyang's meditation and gradually formed some new ideas. "Celestial Status."

Gazing at the numerous celestial beings and a dozen or so divine stars in his consciousness space, and then reflecting on his own soul, Wang Chao gradually fell into deep thought.

He seemed to care too much about his divine status and his many supernatural powers.

Ultimately, everything about him stems from his own soul.

What he initially wanted was to refine his soul to its limit, transcend this world, and even return to his original world.
However, as dynasties developed various supernatural abilities, the divine status evolved.

His attention then began to shift towards his divine status and supernatural powers.

Although, he still values ​​the elevation of the soul.

But gradually, he lost too much of his focus.

Now, his consciousness space contains too many powers and things that do not belong to his own soul.

The divine stars in the sky, the divine palace beneath our feet, the eerie and dark aura at the bottom, the military camps and the souls of the militia in the divine palace, and the Ming army souls piled up in the distance, and so on.

Indeed, after the divine power of the Heavenly Palace and the eerie aura of the Netherworld evolved, they further stabilized and even expanded the space of consciousness.

However, this also caused his consciousness space to lose its purity.

But now, seeing Chen Zhengyang's idea after meditating and communicating with the Iron-Blooded Aura suddenly made Wang Chao somewhat awake.

As for what the idea is?
He was thinking about whether he could integrate his Heavenly Status and Supernatural Power, and even the Heavenly Status and Supernatural Power themselves, into spiritual power, national fortune, and even the iron-blooded killing aura.

It enables others to communicate with these powers independently, thereby developing their own divine status and supernatural abilities.

However, doing so would require stripping the celestial positions and supernatural stars from the dynasty's consciousness space.

Unconsciously, a sense of reluctance arose in Wang Chao's heart.

This was something he had painstakingly refined and developed, and to separate it away like this, even though he could still use it, still caused him great reluctance.

However, Wang Chao quickly realized that everything about him was essentially a soul. His heavenly status and supernatural powers were indeed powerful, but in a sense, they were also external things.

Moreover, by integrating celestial status, divine powers, and celestial bodies into external spiritual energy, national fortune, and iron-blooded aura, the dynasty is not rendered unusable.

After all, spiritual power, national fortune, and iron-blooded aura are also extensions of his power. With his heavenly status and supernatural abilities integrated into them, he can naturally use them as well, and there will be no difference between them and the present.

If that's the case, what is there for him to be reluctant about?
In his consciousness space, there is no need for these external things to exist. His soul is the foundation, it is everything, it is all.

Of all the supernatural powers and celestial statuses, the only one that dynasties truly need is the power of rules.

What a dynasty needs to do is gradually integrate the power of its rules into its own soul; this is the fundamental thing.

At that time, the great power will return to itself, and there will be no need for any heavenly status or supernatural abilities.

His mind is the Way, his words are the Law.
Every word and action possesses supernatural power and follows the laws of heaven and earth.
After figuring these things out, Wang Chao instantly felt a sense of relief, as if he had unloaded some kind of burden, and his mind became more clear.

However, integrating one's celestial status and supernatural powers into external forces is not an easy task.

Putting aside the difficulties of integration, the forces involved are not even fully covered.

The nation's fortunes are relatively good, and it is able to cover the entire territory. Although the dynasty will occasionally take a cut, it still manages to cover the territory.

The Iron-Blooded Aura is different; it only arises when an army is present.

That's not a problem.

The problem is that these fierce and bloodthirsty auras are not connected as one, but scattered here and there in different parts of the territory.

If one wishes to integrate celestial positions and supernatural celestial bodies with them, then each integration would be necessary, which is extremely cumbersome.

If we also include other professions, such as farmers, members of agricultural societies, and future merchants and workers, the dynasty couldn't possibly integrate them all, could it?
Therefore, the various forces under the national destiny are not suitable as the subject of the fusion of heavenly status and supernatural powers.

Aside from that, there's only national fortune and spiritual power.

Logically speaking, spiritual power has a wider reach and is not subject to the various restrictions of national destiny, making it the best medium.

However, after careful consideration, the dynasty decided to integrate and cross-integrate these elements separately.

Supernatural powers are primarily integrated into spiritual energy, but some of this power will be projected onto the nation's destiny.

The celestial status is primarily integrated into the nation's destiny, but the rules will be projected onto spiritual power, ultimately becoming completely integrated into it.

Ultimately, the dynasty wanted to transform spiritual power into a fundamental force that integrates countless rules.

As the source of all this, the dynasty naturally possesses countless rules and can integrate them into its very soul.

To truly reach the state where "my heart is the Way, and my words are the Law."

After doing all this, the dynasty can connect the various forces under the national destiny with the national destiny in some way.

Ultimately, everyone can, based on their respective professions, use the power derived from their professions as a medium to obtain their own divine status from the destiny of the nation.
