Conceptual melting pot, the fusion of all realms starting from the Qin Dynasty.

"Alright, Aunt Liu!" Yan Lingji smiled calmly, "This is a decision made by me, the King of Baiyue. Everyone just needs to follow it."

After a moment's hesitation, the elder of the Fire Witch lineage bowed slightly in response:

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The other five elders exchanged glances and then replied, "We obey the king's command!"

Yan Lingji stood up and stretched, as if she had put down a heavy burden. She said easily, "These days I've been spending all my time on this desk dealing with government affairs, and my cultivation time has been wasted."

As if reminding the elders, Yan Lingji murmured to herself:

"The fusion of the world will bring about an increase in the world's spiritual energy and an enhancement of the world's status. At that time, martial artists' cultivation and breakthroughs will become easier, and the Celestial Realm will no longer be the limit for martial artists."

"It may no longer be a pipe dream for a cultivator to single-handedly destroy an army or even fight against a nation!"

"The future will belong to cultivators, and I cannot let these heavy administrative duties delay my cultivation."

The six elders of the Baiyue tribe looked at each other in bewilderment.

After realizing what was happening, they immediately understood that this was Yan Lingji's warning to them.

After learning this news, some of the six elders became solemn, some broke out in a cold sweat, some seemed thoughtful, and some were completely indifferent.

Although their reactions differed, they all politely bowed and thanked Yan Lingji.

"Thank you for your guidance, Your Majesty." ×6

Yan Lingji saw their reactions clearly, but didn't care too much. She simply said calmly, "Now that the parliamentary system has been passed, let's discuss the details."

"Yes!"×6

The six elders bowed and responded.

Then Yan Lingji and the others discussed the details of the parliamentary system to be implemented in Baiyue.

Of course, while they were discussing and deliberating, Chen Hao, who was extremely bored, offered a lot of suggestions.

Even so, by the time Yan Lingji and the six elders finished discussing everything, half a day had passed, and it was already noon.

...

In a plaza outside the North Hall of the Baiyue Royal Palace, several divine puppets over ten feet tall and dozens of human-shaped dolls were busily working under Chen Hao's control, quickly constructing a stone gate using the stone materials he had condensed.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"167 Xiao Chenhao, do you really want to leave a permanent entrance to this grotto-heaven here?"

Yan Lingji stood gracefully beside Chen Hao, looking at the rapidly erected stone door, and asked in surprise.

"Of course!"

Chen Hao took Yan Lingji's soft, boneless right hand and nodded firmly: "Leaving a fixed entrance to the grotto-heaven will allow you, Yan Lingji, to leave Baiyue with me in peace. This is a good deal."

"That way, even if there is unrest or other trouble in Baiyue, they will be able to find you, Yan Lingji, immediately."

That's right!

The reason for deciding to implement a parliamentary system in Baiyue was, of course, that Chen Hao did not want Yan Lingji to be trapped on the throne of Baiyue.

Even so, it is not so easy to get Yan Lingji to leave Baiyue for a long time and live with Chen Hao in Dongtian·Luo Fudong or to travel through the heavens.

Therefore, to put Yan Lingji at ease, Chen Hao left a fixed entrance to the grotto in the Baiyue Royal Palace.

After a moment of silence, Yan Lingji gave Chen Hao a bright smile:

"Xiao Chenhao, thank you."

Yan Lingji understood that Chen Hao left this fixed entrance to the Baiyue Royal Palace not only so that she could stay by his side in peace, but also to give the Baiyue tribe a tremendous opportunity for growth.

Chapter 253 Chen Hao's Lifespan and the Hidden Daughter

With the experience from Wanwan's world, Chen Hao quickly built this fixed gateway to the celestial realm.

Buzz~!

Chen Hao activated the Yin-Yang Bagua Array, which was set up around the cave entrance, by forming hand seals with both hands, connecting the array patterns of the Yin-Yang Bagua Array with the huge divine puppets guarding the two sides of the cave entrance.

"Is this the [Formation] minor supernatural power that you acquired before, Xiao Chenhao?"

A spark of fire flashed in Yan Lingji's eyes as she used her spiritual vision to observe the workings of the formation, and immediately exclaimed in amazement.

"Yan Ling Ji, if you are interested in formations, you can try learning [Formation]. Spiritual Vision is of great help in learning formations, and it is not difficult to learn."

Chen Hao smiled faintly at Yan Lingji beside him.

After a cultivator reaches a certain level, although they can perceive the spiritual energy and its flow in the world through their spirit and intuition, it is almost impossible for them to see these things with their own eyes.

Either one possesses special talent or cultivates special techniques; only by activating spiritual vision can one clearly see the changes and patterns of the various energies between heaven and earth.

The flash of fire that appeared in Yan Lingji's eyes earlier was a sign that she had activated her spiritual vision.

Just as Chen Hao transformed into the Candle Dragon Eye due to the influence of the [Star Chart: Candle Dragon], Yan Ling Ji's [Star Chart: Vermilion Bird] has also begun to give her some mysterious and unpredictable changes.

"No!" Yan Lingji shook her head and refused with a smile: "Not everyone is as insightful as you, Xiao Chenhao, who can master a technique in a short time and learn multiple techniques without taking up too much of your cultivation time and energy."

"Although I consider myself to have some talent, if I get distracted, I won't be able to catch up with you, Xiao Chenhao."

Yan Lingji turned to look at Chen Hao, her eyes sparkling. She raised her hands and gently stroked Chen Hao's cheeks: "I don't want you to still look the same a hundred years from now, while I've turned into a pile of bones in a tomb."

Chen Hao remained silent.

After a long pause, Chen Hao finally spoke, "Yan Lingji, you noticed?"

"Hmm!" Yan Lingji nodded with a light laugh: "Flame and life are Suzaku's instincts!"

"Through the [Star Chart - Vermilion Bird], I can vaguely sense a person's vitality, and through vitality, I can roughly judge the length of a person's life~々."

"Vitality is a symbol of a person's lifespan!"

"The stronger a person's vitality, the longer their lifespan; conversely, the weaker a person's vitality, the shorter their lifespan."

Yan Lingji slowly slid her right hand down to Chen Hao's heart, sensing his strong and powerful heartbeat, and said in a gentle tone, "If the life force of an ordinary young man is compared to a candle flame, then Chen Hao, your life force is the sun in the sky."

"Even if ordinary martial artists cultivate to the Grandmaster level, their lifespan is at most one hundred and fifty years. Even if their cultivation advances further and they break through to the Celestial Realm, they can only extend their lifespan limit to two hundred years."

"And you, Xiao Chenhao..."

"Although I cannot accurately determine your lifespan, Xiao Chenhao, with your vitality, living for thousands of years would be an easy thing."

In an instant, Chen Hao saw a complex mix of emotions in Yan Lingji's exquisite and beautiful eyes: joy, surprise, disbelief, sorrow, loss, fear, and more.

In an instant, Chen Hao seemed to understand Yan Lingji's worries. He stepped forward and hugged Yan Lingji tightly, comforting her, "Don't worry about your lifespan, Yan Lingji."

"After the world is upgraded, there are countless opportunities to achieve immortality: the wonders nurtured by the world, the essence of divine beasts, the techniques for achieving immortality, or the ability to continuously improve one's cultivation level and transform one's life essence through cultivation. All of these can allow you to stay by my side forever."

Chen Hao patted Yan Lingji on the back and said firmly:

“I have already made plans for your longevity. I will not let any of you leave me, not one of you.”

Chen Hao's [Star Chart - Candle Dragon] and Yan Lingji's [Star Chart - Vermilion Bird], which she condensed through the "Star Chart Method", are fundamentally different.

The Star Chart of Vermilion Bird, which contains Yan Ling Ji, is merely an imprint of ancient memories within her bloodline. While it grants Yan Ling Ji some unique powers and abilities, and allows her to have a lifespan slightly longer than others, it cannot change or elevate the essence of Yan Ling Ji's life.

Chen Hao's [Star Chart - Candle Dragon] contains the concept of the innate sacred Candle Dragon. The moment it was given to Chen Hao by the [Concept Furnace], the concept of the Candle Dragon was already slowly changing the essence of Chen Hao's life, making Chen Hao move closer to the essence of the Candle Dragon's life.

Although Chen Hao is only a Grandmaster at present, his life essence is already far superior to that of ordinary people.

At the same time, Chen Hao already possessed a long lifespan that others could only dream of.

As time went on, Chen Hao's lifespan increased every day, infinitely and without end. Even Chen Hao himself did not know how many years he could live.

After all, how could Zhulong, who possesses the power of time, possibly have the trouble of a long lifespan?

At this moment, Yan Lingji leaned quietly on Chen Hao's shoulder, tightened her arms around him, and said firmly, "I will never leave you, little Chen Hao, never."

Chen Hao and Yan Ling Ji embraced tightly, quietly feeling their hearts drawing closer together.

After a long while, once Yan Lingji had left his embrace, Chen Hao turned to look at the stone door above, which was inscribed with the words "Baiyue," and said softly, "Yan Lingji, please designate a few people in a moment. I will grant them access through this grotto gate."

"Okay!" Yan Lingji nodded, then called out to a corner of the plaza behind her, "Lin'er, come out!"

Whoosh~ Whoosh whoosh~~!

As soon as Yan Lingji finished speaking, a slender figure in a black cloak appeared in a series of flashes and leaps, arriving not far from Yan Lingji and Chen Hao, and knelt down with her head bowed: "My Lord!"

Yan Lingji turned to Chen Hao and boasted, "Lin'er is the daughter of the gods, and she is proficient in the art of disguise. She can transform into all living beings and can instantly change her appearance, voice, and clothing."

"She is my biggest gain since I returned to Baiyue this time."

Chen Hao was surprised!

She was slender and short, wearing an indigo cloak embroidered with white qilin, which covered her entire body. Only her hands and the ponytail on her head were exposed. There were black scale-like objects on her wrists.

Isn't this the Black Jade Qilin from the Qin's Moon series?!

The moon is dark and the wind is cold; the deadly creature is invisible and unpredictable, ever-changing and mysterious—the black jade unicorn!

Chen Hao never expected that the future world-renowned number one assassin of South Korea would actually be from the Baiyue region, and that he would be recruited by Yan Lingji by chance.

However, considering the seemingly real yet illusory disguise technique of the Black Jade Kirin, Chen Hao was no longer surprised.

After all, in the context of this world, the only techniques that can instantly change one's appearance, voice, and clothing without any external objects are the Yin-Yang School's magic and the Baiyue people's witchcraft.

Originally, it was destined that Mo Yu Qilin would go to Korea and join Liu Sha, which was probably partly due to the actions of Tian Ze, Bai Du Wang, Qu Shi Mo, Wu Shuang Gui, and Yan Ling Ji.
