Starting as a centurion, he fought his way through the chaos of the world.

Chapter 214 Immortal Spirit Realm
"Forty-six million points," Lu Ming said softly, looking at the number on the screen.

After pondering for a moment, he decided to exchange for some cultivation techniques used by generals, which would be perfect for helping them break through when the Immortal Spirit Secret Realm opened.

Then the system store was opened.

[Nine Revolutions of the Divine Fire Technique, 500 Billion Points]

[The "Fire Department Heavenly Soldiers' Drill Manual, 500 Billion Points"]

[Nine Revolutions Mysterious Water Divine Technique, 500 billion points]

[The Amazing Maneuvers of the Heavenly Soldiers of the Water Department, 500 billion points]

[Nine Revolutions Sharp Metal Divine Technique, 500 Billion Points]

After using up all his points, Lu Ming exchanged them for generals and cultivation techniques of the Heavenly Soldiers from the Fire, Water, Metal, and Wind divisions, as well as the Heavenly Soldiers' techniques from the Thunder division.

After exchanging all the items, he pondered for a moment, then called out to the door, "Someone come here!"

The female official in green immediately walked in cautiously.

He lowered his head and said meekly, "Your Majesty!"

"Bring Wang Yue, Xiao Lin, Helian Nu, Zheng Yong, Hu Fei, and Su Lie here."

"Yes, ma'am!" the female official in blue replied and then withdrew.

Less than half an hour later.

"Tap tap!" Footsteps sounded outside the door.

"His Majesty!"

It was Wang Yue's voice; Lu Ming knew that one of his generals must have arrived.

It's already quite an achievement that it took half an hour to arrive.

After all, Helian Nu was still in the sea area, so directly transferring him over, even with a teleportation array, was still quite fast.

"Come in, all of you!" he said calmly.

Then, five people walked in.

Upon seeing them, Lu Ming didn't waste any more words.

"The reason I called you here is because I acquired some cultivation techniques that are perfect for you."

After saying that, he continued before the generals below could get excited.

"Hu Fei, you are skilled in archery. You and your warriors will be taught the Xunfeng tribe's martial arts techniques!"

"Su Lie, your temperament is like fire. The Fire Blaze Clan's techniques will be taught to you and your warriors."

"Xiao Lin, you love charging into battle the most. The Ruijin Division's techniques will be taught to you and your soldiers."

"Helian Nu, you are skilled in naval warfare. The Xuan Shui Tribe's techniques will be taught to you and your warriors."

"Zhang Mu, this time you will complete the martial arts techniques for the Thunder Division warriors."

After giving away all the cultivation techniques, Lu Ming looked at them and said calmly, "After you go back, pass on the techniques to your respective warriors as soon as possible, and then come to Shangjing to wait. The new secret realm is about to open, and you can be the first group to enter."

"Yes, sir!" they all replied excitedly upon receiving the order.

They knew that the opening of a new secret realm meant they had another opportunity to break through.

"Alright, everyone step back. Get your men to master the technique as soon as possible."

Lu Ming waved his hand.

The generals immediately bowed and withdrew.

Lu Ming let out a long breath.

Even after using up all the points, I only managed to gather six heavenly soldiers.

If all the heavenly soldiers can be gathered, the Great Xia should be able to establish a foothold in the vicinity.

Next, we'll see if the people from Shiyu City can deliver the goods tomorrow.

Then, she stood up and walked towards the inner palace.

As soon as they stepped into Qifeng Palace, Li Xirou and Yu Muyun hurriedly came to greet them.

The two of them now look fuller than before.

But it's also more beautiful now.

"Husband, my sister and I have made a lot of delicious food, we've been waiting for you, come in and have a taste." Both of his wives are pregnant now, so Lu Ming can't do anything he wants.

We can only eat now.

After responding, he entered the bedroom.

On the other side, atop the unreachable Nine Heavens, the Heavenly Court stands atop the clouds, its magnificent sight inspiring awe even in the strongest. The towering jade palaces and golden halls, constructed of celestial stone, radiate light like dazzling stars. The palaces' upturned eaves are carved with various mythical beasts and celestial birds, so lifelike they seem poised to take flight at any moment.

In the celestial realm, magnificent palaces and pavilions are scattered in a well-ordered manner, each building exuding a faint ethereal aura, reflecting the surrounding sea of ​​clouds.

The Heavenly Court is guarded by celestial soldiers, clad in armor, wielding weapons, with solemn expressions, and exuding an aura of majesty with every step they take.

Even the weakest among them were at the Celestial Immortal realm.

Before the gates of Heaven, two enormous stone lions stand guard, their surfaces carved with intricate cloud patterns and divine symbols, their piercing eyes seemingly able to see through all evil thoughts. Above the lintel hangs a gleaming golden plaque inscribed with the two characters "Heavenly Court," the calligraphy powerful and vigorous, exuding supreme authority and dignity.

The interior is faintly filled with celestial music, which, upon closer listening, seems to be melodious and soothing, calming the mind. Yet, within this peaceful atmosphere, a hint of fighting spirit and majesty occasionally emanates. This place is not only the dwelling place of the world's strongest, but also a symbol of power and order in the mythical world.

Inside the Cloud Palace, the Jade Emperor, dressed in a yellow dragon robe, sat at the head of the table. He was tall and imposing with a square face, and his body was faintly covered by golden light, making it impossible to look directly at him. Clouds floated around him, and celestial music drifted in the air.

A woman dressed in a thin, light garment danced gracefully.

Each of them possessed an extraordinary temperament and ethereal beauty.

A fairy servant, dressed in a white robe with a light gray vest, walked in cautiously, holding a memorial in her hand.

"Your Majesty, the officials of the Observatory have delivered a memorial stating that someone in the mortal realm has wiped out the Black Mountain and should be granted the title of a ninth-rank celestial official."

"You dare ask me about such a trivial matter? Since you have rendered meritorious service, just reward you directly. The people of the Celestial Surveillance Bureau are becoming more and more ignorant of the rules." The Jade Emperor's indifferent voice rang out.

He was annoyed that the fairy servant had disturbed his enjoyment.

"Your Majesty, the people from the Observatory say that the force that wiped out Black Mountain is the Humanity Dynasty." Xiannu's voice was even lower, and beads of sweat covered her pale face.

"Oh, the Human Dynasty?" Emperor Haotian was clearly surprised that, after so many years since ancient times, the Immortal Realm would see the emergence of a Human Dynasty again.

After drinking a cup of celestial wine, he said indifferently, "If it's the Human Dynasty, then there's no need for rewards."

Clearly, the Heavenly Court was quite wary of the Human Dynasty.

After all, the war between the celestial beings and humans back then almost destroyed the entire Immortal Realm.

Moreover, and most importantly, none of the sages liked the Human Dynasty, so he couldn't get too close to it.

Although I am not afraid, offending a saint is still troublesome.

"Should we send someone to wipe them out?" Xiannu asked, bowing.

"It's just a small dynasty. Taking action now would damage the dignity of the Heavenly Court. The local celestial officials should just be careful and give face to the emperors of the human race."

Instead of wasting time thinking about important matters, has Princess Yunjin been found?

"We're still searching," Xiannu said hesitantly.

Haotian Immortal Emperor's eyes flashed slightly, "Useless!"

Then he continued, "What is the situation in various places in the lower realms?"

"It's very chaotic. All the forces are vying for power. The Human King and the Demon King are each ruling their own territory."

"Alright, you may leave now." This was said after hearing Xiannu's report.

The Celestial Emperor Haotian waved his hand, dismissing the other party.

Then, a slight smirk appeared on his lips.

Chaos is good; only in chaos will these people weaken each other and obey the Heavenly Court's orders.

He didn't want a unified lower realm to emerge, because who knows, it might rebel one day and another massive human dynasty would be born.

Then, they continued watching the song and dance performances.

Nothing happened that night within the territory of Dayu. The next afternoon...

Lu Ming was watching his two wives play chess in the inner palace.

The female official in green cautiously entered. "Your Majesty, the people from Shiyu City have arrived."

Hearing what the other person said, Lu Ming raised an eyebrow.

Then, a smile appeared on his face as he looked at Li Xirou and the other person and said, "You two continue playing chess, I'm going out for a walk."

As he spoke, he walked out of the palace.

As soon as he stepped out, he said to the female official in blue, "Let the guests from Shiyu City come to the study."

After saying this, he went straight to the Imperial Study.

I had just settled down in the study when the tea was served.

The female official in green robes led two people in. One of them was slender and had an exceptionally beautiful face.

The other one was slightly more mature, but equally good-looking.

As soon as the two women entered, a fragrant breeze wafted over.

"I have met His Majesty!"

The two women spoke respectfully.

"Don't stand on ceremony, sit down and let's talk," Lu Ming said with a smile.

At the same time, he gestured to the female official in blue to serve tea.

After the two women were seated, tea was served. One of them bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am the city lord's apprentice, named A-Tong. Here are the immortal crystals you need."

As he spoke, he handed a storage ring to the female official in blue.

It was presented to Lu Ming by the other party.

After receiving the ring, Hou Fang breathed a sigh of relief.

With this immortal crystal, many plans can be implemented.

Then, A-Tong pointed to the woman beside her and said, "This is Manager Li from the Immortal Medicine Hall in our Stone Rain City. You can buy any medicinal herbs you need from her!"

Lu Ming nodded, then looked at the mature woman opposite him and said, "Manager Li, my idea is, could your Immortal Medicine Hall establish a branch in my Great Yu? That way, it would be more convenient for us to sell our local medicinal herbs or buy herbs from you. What do you think?"

Manager Li immediately stood up with a smile and said, "I will obey His Majesty's orders."

In fact, although the Great Yu has only recently connected with the Immortal Realm, business people like them are very keen to get in touch with it.

After all, the Big Dipper Domain has only just appeared in the Immortal Realm.

Besides the formation of new immortal crystal mines, there will also be various immortal medicines.

Especially those things that are not available outside.

If we could acquire it here, that would be ideal.

Lu Ming was satisfied with Manager Li's attitude and nodded, saying, "Alright, in that case, someone from my Alchemy Department will contact you later. You can discuss the specific purchase plan with him."

"Okay," Manager Li replied quickly.

At this moment, Atong also stood up.

"Your Majesty, the matter has been completed, so I will take my leave now. Manager Li will stay and discuss with you the specific details of purchasing the medicinal herbs."

"Thank you very much, Lord Shiyu City. Tell her that I owe you a favor this time, and I will repay you in the future," Lu Ming said solemnly.

Atong bowed and said, "Your Majesty is too kind."

Then, the female official in green personally led the way, and they withdrew with Manager Li.

After they left.

Lu Ming then walked out of the palace.

At this time, not far from the palace.

They are working hard to build a new secret realm palace. Unlike the previous secret realm palaces, this one is larger and more magnificent.

With the help of the Great Yu's offerings, construction was completed very quickly.

When Lu Ming arrived, he saw Baili Fei guarding the place.

For him now, the construction of the Secret Realm Palace is of paramount importance.

Regarding their cultivation, the sooner it is completed, the sooner they can enter it to cultivate.

Therefore, they naturally stayed by their side, not daring to be careless.

Upon seeing Lu Ming, he quickly walked over and said with a smile, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

"How much longer will it take to complete this secret realm?" Lu Ming waved his hand, indicating that he shouldn't be so polite.

I met Baili Fei when we were both in humble circumstances.

Therefore, when no one else is around, Lu Ming doesn't deliberately put on airs.

"Your Majesty, it should be ready in about two days," Baili Fei said with a smile.

Lu Ming glanced at him and said, "Once the Secret Realm is completed, you should be among the first to go in and cultivate. Your cultivation is improving quite quickly. You should be able to reach the Celestial Immortal Realm after you come out of seclusion. I've realized that keeping you in the Ministry of Revenue is a bit of a waste of your talents. Why don't you try your luck in the Imperial Guard?"

"Your Majesty, please spare me. I am naturally lazy and love to play. I can't endure the hardship of being sent to the Imperial Guard," Baili Fei said with a wry smile.

Hearing him say that, Lu Ming didn't press the matter any further.

Instead, he turned around and joked, "I heard you've married another wife? You must have taken over a hundred concubines over the years."

"It's all thanks to His Majesty's good fortune that we've been given such high positions. All those women are desperately trying to get close to us, and there's nothing I can do about it," Baili Fei said.

The development of the Baili family over the years has been remarkable.

The family business extends to every industry. From a third-rate family, it has now become a top-tier family. He is the current head of the family and a Gold and Silver Marquis of the imperial court. He is definitely a big figure.

And all of this is because of Lu Ming.

Nowadays, the people under his command can all be considered his staunch supporters.

"Cultivate diligently, the better days are yet to come," Lu Ming said, patting Baili Fei on the shoulder.

Then, they headed towards the palace.

For the next two days, Lu Ming spent time with his two wives.

Sometimes, they would even change into casual clothes and stroll around the imperial city, enjoying the everyday life.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Lu Ming was having a drink in the garden.

The female official in green cautiously approached.

"Your Majesty, Lord Baili Fei says that the Secret Realm Palace has been completed."

Upon hearing the sound, Lu Ming raised an eyebrow.

"Oh? Then go take a look quickly."

After saying that, he couldn't wait to walk out of the palace.

The female official in blue followed carefully behind.

When Lu Ming arrived outside the Secret Realm, he found that it was already under the control of the Imperial Guards.

All around were warriors wielding weapons.

Baili Fei stood to one side, discussing something with Zhang Meng.

Looking at them, Lu Ming turned to the female official in blue and said, "Notify all generals to return to the capital."

Then, we continued walking forward.

Upon seeing Lu Ming arrive, Baili Fei did not hesitate and immediately bowed, saying, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

"No need for formalities, let's go in and have a look."

As Lu Ming spoke, he walked inside.

The entire secret realm consisted of nothing more than a huge courtyard and a tower that was a hundred feet tall.

The entire structure is made of huge stones.

Lu Ming glanced around and then went inside.

Then, he reached out and a ball of light, as big as a washbasin, appeared in his palm.

With a gentle push, it flew out.

It has become integrated with the entire tower.

The scene inside changed instantly.

Everywhere was shrouded in mist, shimmering with various colored lights.

Lu Ming climbed the steps and finally reached the top of the tower, where he spread out all the immortal crystals.

The next moment, a rich aura of immortal energy enveloped the entire tower.

The passage of time is felt within it.

A smile appeared on Lu Ming's lips.

Then, they walked outside.

His generals and retainers should all be here.

After this training, I will definitely be able to make further progress.

One year later, Dayu will appear before everyone with a completely new look.
