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

Chapter 238 One Year and Breakthrough
At this moment, Lu Ming opened the system store and began searching.

[Earth Division Celestial Soldier Technique, 1000 Billion Points]

[5000 Billion Points in "The Battle God's Codex of the Earth Dog"]

[Mysterious Rain Division Heavenly Soldier Technique, 1000 Billion Points]

[5000 Billion Points in "Mysterious Rain Battle Manual"]

Lu Ming did not hesitate and immediately exchanged for it.

With these two heavenly soldiers, there will be eight heavenly soldiers.

With an army of nearly ten million, the number is sufficient for the time being.

After all, there are city guards and slave soldiers in various places, which is enough for the Great Yu to deal with any enemy.

Then, she opened her eyes and stood up.

Li Xirou and Yu Muyun have already come out.

After dressing up, she looks even more beautiful now.

She stood gracefully in front of Lu Ming.

It made him realize how truly blessed he was.

"Let's go!"

After saying that, he walked towards the Hall of Heroes.

Upon arriving at the palace, they saw that the generals from various departments were already waiting. When they saw Lu Ming and the two empresses, they immediately stood up and greeted him respectfully.

"Greetings to His Majesty, and to His Majesty!"

"Rise, all of you!" Lu Ming said calmly.

Then he sat in the seat of honor.

The two empresses, along with their children, stood on either side of him.

Then, a palace maid came in and began serving the dishes.

A variety of delicious foods were laid out, and of course, fine wine was also indispensable.

In an instant, the entire hall was filled with a delightful fragrance.

Especially when a bottle of fine wine is opened.

The enticing aroma wafted towards me.

Lu Ming didn't waste any time. Looking at the assembled officials, he said, "Now, our Great Yu has finally gained a foothold in Xingzhou. This is all thanks to everyone. I'd like to propose a toast to you all!"

After saying that, he raised his glass.

The officials, of course, dared not be negligent and all raised their wine cups.

Drink the wine in one gulp.

In an instant, the previously restrained atmosphere in the main hall eased considerably.

Then, Lu Ming continued, "This time, we have gained ten more prefectures, and I plan to establish two more ministries."

After speaking, his gaze fell downwards.

"Lu Shi, you will take charge of the Xu Earth Department. This department is very special; it can use earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of magic that allows one to escape through land and mountains). It is the most important link in my Heavenly Net and Earthly Net, and you will be in charge of it!" As he spoke, Lu Ming handed a jade talisman to Lu Shi.

After accepting it, the other party respectfully said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Lu Ming nodded, then took out another jade talisman. "Zheng Yong is the commander of the Xuan Yu tribe. This tribe is all-pervasive, but even a drop of water can penetrate everything. Their combat power is extraordinary. After returning, he should also mobilize a million troops and cultivate diligently."

Then, the jade talisman flew into Zheng Yong's palm.

Now, the various departments of the Great Yu are complete.

Next, we need to give them time to cultivate properly. Once their cultivation reaches the Golden Immortal level, they should be able to stand on their own.

We'll seize Xingzhou then.

Even in the Immortal Realm, the Great Yu Dynasty has secured a place for itself.

However, we must now guard against external attacks.

After all, the current state of the Great Yu is somewhat conspicuous.

Now they occupy ten prefectures, which, although not as fertile as the territories seized by the disciples of the sage, are still quite large.

It is very likely that it will be coveted by others.

After distributing all the items, Lu Ming's smile widened.

Then he said, "Let's drink!"

He raised his glass while speaking.

The other generals, of course, did not refuse, and kept toasting Lu Ming with their wine glasses, which he accepted without hesitation.

For a moment, the scene was very lively.

Lu Ming couldn't help but feel emotional about this, thinking back to his own past.

It was just a makeshift operation set up in Fenglei Town.

Unexpectedly, many years later, a vast dynasty was established.

Although it's nothing in the current Immortal Realm.

But he is already very satisfied with the scale it has reached.

The fighting power of the Great Yu is constantly improving, and he believes that one day, he will take control of the Nine Provinces.

At the same time, the Yuqing Sect issued a decree ordering its disciples to expand their territory as soon as possible.

Following the Yuqing Sect's actions, other sage sects also received decrees.

As for the reason, it was naturally to prepare to surround and ambush Lu Ming.

Back then, all the great sages targeted the Shangqing Sage, causing him to be defeated.

Now that they know Lu Ming is a disciple of the Shangqing Sect Master, they certainly can't let him continue to develop.

Although I don't take it seriously, I'm always just afraid of the worst-case scenario.

Perhaps the other party will then develop their own business.

This is not something that the sages would have wanted to see.

That would be too humiliating for them, so the disciples of the saints who were vying for power were also mobilized.

In particular, Fu Yao found more than a dozen disciples of the Taiqing Sect. After going through layers of selection, she finally settled on a disciple named Jing Gong.

Now, his cultivation level has reached the peak of the Golden Immortal realm, and he occupies the Five Prefectures, which is quite impressive.

Moreover, it also inherited the core essence of Taiqing Palace.

He possesses extraordinary supernatural powers.

Now, he is opening up a new battlefield, sitting in his tent, enveloped in immortal golden light.

Her long hair cascaded down, shimmering with light.

Looking at his generals, he said calmly, "You've all heard about what happened in the Great Yu, haven't you? The Yu Emperor rejected our master back then, but now he's become a disciple of the Shangqing Sage."

This is a provocation against my Taiqing Palace.

After this battle is over, I will go and meet him to see if the Great Yu is worthy of the arrogance he has displayed.

Back then, my Taiqing Sect could suppress the Shangqing Sect.

Now I can also suppress Lu Ming.

The young man's calm voice rang out.

The generals below immediately replied, "Yes, sir!"

He had more than a dozen Golden Immortal level experts under his command. These people were all talented disciples selected together with Jing Palace, but after the other party took the lead.

These disciples then became generals under Jinggong's command.

Meanwhile, in Hundred Fruit Mountain, the Fighting Saint Emperor, clad in golden armor, sat on his throne.

Its fur is golden.

Looking at the decree that had been passed into his hand, he said, "Hmph, I'm not their subordinate. Why should they order me around? This territory was won by me and my men. What does it have to do with the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect?"

I'm determined not to target the Great Yu.

Tell the children that they need to get to training for the next period of time.

I've long disliked Yang Xian; I'll give him a beating another day.

The words of the Fighting Saint Emperor caused the clansmen below to cheer.

An astonishing, eerie mist shrouded the area above.

In the distance, a Buddha from the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect looked at the scene below, shook his head, and muttered to himself, "This monkey is really unruly. It seems I need to find an opportunity to teach him a lesson."

Then, it transformed into a golden light and disappeared from the spot.

At the same time, Lu Ming and his group had already finished the banquet.

After all the generals withdrew, they returned to their respective posts. Now that the borders of the Great Yu have expanded, they also need to change their posts, and there is still much to be done.

As for Lu Ming, he returned to his palace with his two wives and children.

The children were taken in by wet nurses.

Li Xirou and the others, of course, had to stay with Lu Ming.

Having not seen each other for so long, it's inevitable that we'll have some tender moments.

Nothing happened that night. The next day, Lu Ming found the two children by his side. Early that morning, he exchanged two drops of Dharma Aspect True Blood.

Fu Guang is also a golden crow, that is beyond doubt.

Wangshu, on the other hand, is Taiyin Youying.

Both are top-tier bloodlines.

After injecting it into the two children's bodies, Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief as he watched them break through.

"Father, I feel stronger and more powerful now." Fu Guang was overjoyed after his breakthrough. He flew into the air, and a great sun appeared beneath his feet.

The temperature rose throughout Kyoto as a result.

Lu Ming immediately said, "The Dharma Image should not be moved lightly, especially within my Great Yu. The True Fire of the Sun can scorch all things, and it would be bad if it harmed the people. If we commit this again..."

The punishment is solitary confinement.

Seeing his father's stern face, Fu Guang dared not say anything more and immediately replied, "I understand, Father."

Although he was mischievous, for some reason, he was always quite well-behaved in front of Lu Ming.

Wang Shu, who was standing to the side, covered her mouth and chuckled as she watched her brother being scolded.

Then, Lu Ming looked at them and said, "Cultivate well during this time. In a few days, your father will take you to see your grandmaster. He is a top-level expert."

This will definitely allow your talents to be brought to their fullest potential.

After he finished speaking, he patted Fu Guang and Wang Shu on the head.

Li Xirou and Yu Muyun, who had just finished their makeup, also came out.

At this moment, after exchanging a glance, Li Xirou couldn't help but ask, "Husband, are you going to send the two children to Golden Light Island?"

As she spoke, a look of reluctance appeared in her eyes.

"Let's wait a while. I just got back, so I want to spend more time with the children. The Great Yu will limit their development. It's better for them to lay a solid foundation with their master."

Lu Ming said softly, worried that his wife would disagree.

Unexpectedly, Li Xirou nodded and said, "What my husband says is true."

"You don't object?" Lu Ming asked, somewhat surprised.

He knew very well how much Li Xirou loved Wang Shu.

"Husband, I'm not stupid. To receive the teachings of a sage is such a rare opportunity, how could I possibly stop you? On the contrary, you should have more children so that they can all be taught by the master."

Our family is really getting a huge advantage here.

A wry smile appeared on Lu Ming's face, but upon reflection, it did make sense.

If he really had dozens of sons who became his teacher's disciples, their strength would increase many times over in just a few years.

Yu Muyun also said, "Xi Rou is right. This matter must be put on the agenda as soon as possible. In a few days, we will select some talented women to fill the harem."

Her words left Lu Ming speechless.

After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Don't rush this matter. I have my own plan. As for the child, send him to Master a year from now."

If he enters the secret realm to cultivate within a year, he should have a chance to break through to the Golden Immortal realm.

At that time, I can formally become a disciple of Golden Light Island and become my master's personal disciple.

Then he could take his two wives to pay respects to his master.

They can spend more time with Fuguang and Wangshu.

"Okay!" Although she felt sorry for the two children, Yu Muyun nodded.

Because she knew that the current state of the Great Yu Dynasty was simply incapable of educating these two children, and that all sides were now targeting her.

Although it's safer than before, in the midst of fierce competition, who can say they are absolutely safe?

They are only absolutely safe on Golden Light Island, under the protection of the saint.

However, the two children shook their heads and said, "We don't want to leave our mother and father."

When Fu Guang shouted, she grabbed Lu Ming's leg.

“Fu Guang, you are safer with your grandmaster. You can learn more skills there and help your father in the future.”

Lu Ming gently stroked Fu Guang and Wang Shu's heads and said softly.

He had high hopes for these two children.

Fu Guang and Wang Shu didn't speak, they were just sobbing.

Li Xirou and Yu Muyun had no choice but to take the children downstairs to comfort them.

Lu Ming, on the other hand, went into the secret chamber to cultivate.

In the days that followed, he focused on cultivation, striving to break through to the Golden Immortal realm.

In his spare time, he would come out and teach the two children supernatural abilities.

"Three Heads and Six Arms", "Mastering Thunder", "The Art of Rainbow Transformation", etc.

Without holding anything back, he imparted everything to his two children.

They grasped it very quickly.

It's almost easy to learn. Although I'm not proficient yet, as long as I remember it, I can use it freely when I grow up and improve my cultivation.

Meanwhile, the soldiers of Dayu were also making the most of their time to cultivate.

The capture of the ten prefectures earned everyone a great deal of military merit, which could be exchanged for opportunities to enter the Immortal Spirit Realm or resources for cultivation.

This ushered in a period of explosive growth for the Great Yu Dynasty.

Among them, the Blood Sea Sect Master is worth mentioning. In this battle, he condensed a blood sea covering an area of ​​tens of thousands of miles.

It was laid out and nurtured within the territory of Dayu.

Moreover, he passed on some of the inherited techniques and supernatural abilities to his disciples.

He himself was known as the Blood Sea Ancestor.

Lu Ming had no objection to this, since once one's cultivation reaches the Golden Immortal level, one is qualified to be called an ancestor.

The other generals of Dayu were equally unwilling to lag behind.

After acquiring ten prefectures, Lu Ming increased the number of Immortal Spirit Realms to fifty-five, ensuring that each prefecture had five Immortal Spirit Realms.

Ensure the training of generals and their soldiers.

Therefore, it can be described as a rapid and leapfrog development.

Outside of Da Yu, Huang Sheng, Gongsun Yue, and others are also working hard to improve their strength, putting a lot of pressure on them from Da Yu.

With the support of a sect.

Both the people under their command and their own cultivation levels improved rapidly.

Moreover, the sects behind them seem to have received promises from certain saintly sects.

This has led to Huang Sheng and his associates, who were once cautious, becoming increasingly arrogant.

Sometimes, scouts would even get right up to the face of the Great Yu Fortress.

As for Yang Xian, Jing Gong, and the others, they also performed remarkably well.

In just one year, their gains expanded considerably, and their territory became comparable to that of the Great Yu Dynasty. However, what they occupied was the fertile land of the Immortal Realm.

It is incomparable to the Great Yu.

Meanwhile, Lu Ming finally emerged from seclusion a year later.

His entire body was covered in golden, immortal light.

"Boom!"

As the door to the secret room opened.

Lu Ming then saw the female official in green waiting.

"I have met His Majesty!"

"Rise," he said calmly.

Then I walked forward.

Then, he turned around and asked, "How is the Great Yu Dynasty developing now? Have Wu Han and the others made a breakthrough?"

The voice rang out, carrying a hint of anticipation.
