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

"Then, Lang'er, what else do you need me to do?"

"Yes, Father, you don't need to do anything now. Once I've completed the synchronization and fusion, I will proceed to the next step."

".good!
Should I protect this place?

Emperor Chongzhen nodded, then asked again.

"Need not!"

Zhu Cilang shook his head.

Then, with a thought, Zhu Cilang's figure instantly transformed into a streak of light and shot away.

"This"

Upon seeing this, Chongzhen was first taken aback, then realized that this Zhu Cilang must have gone to find the Zhu Cilang of this world.

Yes, this world.

He could completely regard the Zhu Cilang of that world as the previous incarnation of the Zhu Cilang of this world.

With this thought, Chongzhen's mind cleared up, and his previously gloomy expression became much better.

After all, the Chinese people have had the legend of reincarnation since ancient times.

Even legendary immortals and gods descend to the mortal realm to undergo tribulations.

If a family member has children who are reincarnations of immortals or gods and have awakened their memories of their past life, I doubt anyone would be dissatisfied and want to kill these children who are reincarnations of immortals or gods.
They would actually be proud of it.

Compared to their world, the Celestial Empire was nothing short of a legendary immortal realm.

And isn't Zhu Cilang in that other world also equivalent to a god?
His arrival in this world and his merging with Zhu Cilang of this world is equivalent to reincarnation and experiencing tribulations in the mortal realm, isn't it?
Thinking about it this way, the combination of the two Zhu Cilangs doesn't seem so hard to accept.

Meanwhile, just as Chongzhen had guessed, after Zhu Cilang soared into the sky, he arrived directly above Zhu Cilang of the late Ming Dynasty. Amidst the exclamations of Feng Shaonan and others, he instantly entered Zhu Cilang's body.

Once the two sides actually come into contact, the speed of synchronization and fusion instantly reaches an extreme, almost within a few breaths, the two sides have already completed synchronization.

Zhu Cilang opened his eyes again. He was still the same person, but his demeanor had become much more mature, and he had an air of looking down on the world.

Or rather, it is a world that looks down upon this realm.

Meanwhile, in the Celestial Empire, the dynasty wore a thoughtful expression.

Zhu Cilang's cultivation level was still too low. After merging with his other self from the late Ming Dynasty world, he was influenced by too much.

Otherwise, there should be a clear primary and secondary relationship between the two parties.

The ego and the other ego must not be confused.

One must take one's true self as the foundation, maintain one's own mental independence, and never allow one's mind and consciousness to be influenced.

Otherwise, it's hard to say whether you're still yourself.

To some extent, Zhu Cilang at this time is a fusion of two worlds.

Both Zhu Cilang from the two worlds have disappeared.

From the perspective of spiritual practice, Zhu Cilang's attempt to integrate himself with others was a failure.

Of course, after the fusion was completed, Zhu Cilang probably wouldn't have considered it a failure.

And
Looking at the side hall of the dynasty, one can still find a portion of Zhu Cilang's soul consciousness from this world.

If it grows up and merges with Zhu Cilang, it can regain its original self-awareness.

However, this is probably very difficult.

After all, with the new Zhu Cilang of the late Ming Dynasty beginning to mobilize the nation's fortunes to integrate into that world and rebuild the country, its strength will inevitably rise to a very high level in a short period of time.

Even if the two sides merge, at most it will only mean that the intentions are biased towards Zhu Cilang of this world.

Of course, it doesn't really matter much, since it's still Zhu Cilang, and there's really no need to make such a clear distinction.

However, this still served as a reminder to the dynasty: if he had a self in other worlds, he would have to ensure the absolute superiority and resilience of his mental consciousness if he wanted to descend upon those worlds.

Ideally, one should strive to achieve a state of mental fortitude, unmoved by external things.

However, speaking of which, the soul consciousness, the rules it once comprehended, the unity of humanistic principles and laws, and the dynasty that evolved beyond the Dao fruit, seem to have almost reached this level.

Even if there are still some differences, they won't be significant.

After thinking for a while, Wang Chao shook his head. Why bother with all that? Just keep improving your own power level.

After gathering his thoughts, Wang Chao looked back at what was in front of him, where a screen of light appeared, revealing another world and the scene around Zhu Cilang.

It possesses the national fortune of the Celestial Empire and a piece of immortal space, both of which are direct extensions of the dynasty's power.

Furthermore, the world at the end of the Ming Dynasty had been deeply eroded by the Celestial Empire, and it also contained the rules of puppetry and the existence of the underworld.

With the current cultivation level of the Dynasty at the Dao Fruit Cave Heaven realm, it is already able to transcend worlds and sense the location of its own power.

Combined with the "Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Methods" of "Perspective Through Walls" and the "Mysterious Light Technique" of "Six Jia Qi Men," one could then, like he is now, peer into the situation of another world.

Of course, with his current strength, he can only glimpse places where his own power exists.

That is, the area around Zhu Cilang.

At this moment, within the light curtain formed by the Xuan Guang Mirror, Zhu Cilang had completed the final fusion.

On the other hand, after the complete integration, Zhu Cilang sought out Emperor Chongzhen.

Upon arriving at the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, after the father and son dismissed everyone, Zhu Cilang waved his hand, and a ball of bright yellow national fortune appeared in his palm.

Looking at the bright yellow ball of energy in Zhu Cilang's hand, Chongzhen couldn't help but feel curious.

"what is this?"

"This is the destiny of the Celestial Empire, and it is also the foundation for rebuilding the nation this time."

"Oh, the fate of the Celestial Empire."

Chongzhen's eyes flickered.

"Why use the destiny of the Celestial Empire? Why can't we use the destiny of my Great Ming Dynasty?"

"."

Zhu Cilang paused slightly, looking at Chongzhen with an inscrutable expression.

"Uh, Lang'er, why are you looking at your father like that?"

"Father, which world's Ming Dynasty's destiny do you want to use?"

"What do you mean?"

"The Celestial Empire world, well, the world is all named after the Celestial Empire now, so the Ming Dynasty has naturally been destroyed long ago. Among the people of the Celestial Empire, basically no one misses the former Ming Dynasty."

With the capital destroyed, how could the Ming Dynasty have any future?
As for this world
This world has no national destiny or power.

"Heh. Is that so?!"

Hearing Zhu Cilang's explanation, Chongzhen couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

At the same time, he frowned slightly. Zhu Cilang's reaction to the fall of the Ming Dynasty was too calm, as if it were a matter of course.

He keeps referring to himself as a subject of the Celestial Empire. Has he forgotten that he is the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty?

However, Emperor Chongzhen opened his mouth but ultimately did not utter any words of accusation.

Even if the Ming Dynasty were to fall, it would be the fault of Emperor Chongzhen in that world, and would have nothing to do with Zhu Cilang, who was only ten years old at the time.

Moreover, considering that the emperor of that dynasty was willing to send Zhu Cilang to this world to help the Ming Dynasty rebuild its territory, it is clear that they had not targeted Zhu Cilang before.

Thus, it's not entirely incomprehensible that a child who was only ten years old at the time, after living in China for decades, would have a bias towards China.

Sighing inwardly, Chongzhen changed the subject and inquired about another matter.

"Does this world lack the power of national destiny?"
Is our Great Ming Dynasty already at its end?

Zhu Cilang shook his head.

"That's not true.

In the Celestial Empire, even if only one city or region remains, it will still have a corresponding national destiny.

In this world, there is no such thing as national destiny. Neither the Ming Dynasty nor any other country has national destiny.

"Oh!"

Emperor Chongzhen nodded, feeling a slight sense of relief.

At least, at least it wasn't because the Ming Dynasty was about to perish.

"So what should we do next?"

"Next, all we need to do is integrate this national fortune of the Celestial Empire with the core elements that symbolize the Ming Dynasty."
The fate of the Celestial Empire will naturally change on its own.

As he spoke, Zhu Cilang flipped his hand and pressed the bright yellow national fortune in his hand into the jade seal in the corner of the imperial desk.

"Om~!"

In an instant, the Ming Dynasty jade seal began to tremble slightly, and wisps of bright light shone forth, illuminating the surrounding area in a golden splendor.

Immediately afterwards, countless points of spiritual light rapidly converged here, continuously falling into the jade seal.

To be honest, the spiritual power generated by humans in this world cannot exist in the outside world for too long.

Naturally, most of the spiritual energy within the Ming Dynasty could not be gathered at the location of the Imperial Seal.

However, this does not include the area covered by the underworld.

Under the influence of the forces of the underworld, the spiritual energy within this area can still exist for a considerable period of time, at least for three to five days without dissipating.

Therefore, the spiritual power that can be gathered is quite substantial.

Because the imperial seal reflects the glory of the nation's destiny.

Therefore, the spiritual power that had gathered became visible at this moment.

Seeing the scene that resembled an endless gathering of stars, Chongzhen's eyes widened and his mouth slowly opened.

Upon seeing this, Zhu Cilang couldn't help but slightly purse his lips.

Even though it was his own father, the emperor.

But he still had to say, "What a country bumpkin, he looks like he's never seen the world."

In the capital city of Shuntian Prefecture of the Celestial Empire, dazzling light shines upon the imperial palace at every moment.

It even occasionally ripples and permeates the imperial city, and even the entire Shuntian Prefecture.

The magnificent, grand, and dazzling scenes that resemble a fairyland are truly breathtaking.

What we're seeing is utterly trivial.

Even Zhu Cilang could do these things by relying on his own supernatural powers.

Fortunately, Emperor Chongzhen was unaware of his thoughts, otherwise he would have truly felt like vomiting blood.

As the supreme ruler of the Ming Dynasty, he was actually called a country bumpkin by his own son.

As time goes by, more and more spiritual power gathers together.

After absorbing a large amount of spiritual power, the bright yellow national fortune within the jade seal began to expand rapidly.

It was originally only the size of a fist, but in the blink of an eye, it grew to the size of a basketball.

Immediately afterwards, the nation's fortunes expanded rapidly, soon engulfing both Emperor Chongzhen and Emperor Zhu Cilang.

At that moment, a strange feeling arose in Chongzhen's heart.

It seems that the fate of the nation is somehow mysteriously connected to him, and that being in the midst of the nation's fortunes will bring him good luck and ward off all evil.

He can even actively draw upon the nation's destiny to fight and even temper his body.

After all, that national destiny of the Celestial Empire was guided by the Jade Seal of the Ming Dynasty, drawing upon the spiritual power of heaven and earth to generate even more national destiny.

As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he would naturally have some connection with the fate of the nation.

To turn misfortune into good fortune, through battle.
Emperor Chongzhen's eyes flickered as he looked at Zhu Cilang standing to the side.

Upon closer inspection, it almost blinded him, and he deflated like a punctured balloon, all his worries vanishing.

At this moment, Zhu Cilang was radiating a faint glow, resonating with the fate of the nation around him.

Above its head, a vast amount of national fortune converged, forming a bright yellow canopy that shimmered with golden light and appeared somewhat ethereal.

Goodness, are you sure you're not a god?

In this situation, the connection between Chongzhen and the fate of the nation cannot be said to be nonexistent, but it can only be described as negligible.

Having abandoned all other thoughts, Chongzhen began to survey his surroundings. The bright yellow aura of national fortune had already enveloped the entire Qianqing Palace.

After glancing at Zhu Cilang, who seemed to be resting with his eyes closed, Chongzhen quickly walked out of the Qianqing Palace and looked outside.

The bright yellow national fortune was rapidly expanding and soon spread to the Qianqing Gate.

The spiritual light that had gathered there could no longer be seen around the Qianqing Palace; it had been absorbed and merged into the nation's destiny the moment it came into contact with it.

Countless imperial guards, palace maids, and eunuchs stared blankly in the direction of the Qianqing Palace.

Because they had just clearly seen that the bright yellow light was emanating from the Qianqing Palace.

Even when Chongzhen walked out, the crowd was still somewhat taken aback and just stared at him blankly.

After a long while, someone finally reacted and immediately knelt down on the ground.

"This servant greets Your Majesty."

Upon seeing this, the others also reacted quickly and knelt down.

"This servant greets Your Majesty!"

"I will see your Majesty at last!"

Seeing the kneeling palace maids and eunuchs, and the half-kneeling imperial guards, all surrounding the Qianqing Palace and spreading the nation's fortune, Chongzhen couldn't help but feel greatly pleased. (End of Chapter)
