Douluo Continent: The World Shines with Stars

With the war over, apart from Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue, the rest of the high-ranking officials of the Spirit Empire were either dead or captured, completely rewriting the landscape of Douluo Continent.

The high-ranking officials of the Star Luo Empire began their feast of division, pouncing on the Martial Soul Empire, which had no powerful protectors, like hungry wolves. It was all just a matter of the victor taking all and the loser being condemned.

Fortunately, Xu Mingxi had clearly stated his agreement with Qian Renxue from the beginning, prohibiting the major powers of Xingluo from oppressing the Soul Masters and people of the Martial Soul Empire without cause, thus avoiding many disasters.

Even so, the major soul master families of the Spirit Empire were basically driven out of their treasure lands and handed over all their resources.

This is what the defeated deserve, and Xu Mingxi will not stop it. On the contrary, he will add fuel to the fire, making the forces in the Star Luo Empire, whether they have truly or falsely converted to the Star God, the mainstream.

The Star Crown Sect also joined the fray, establishing Star God Temples throughout the Douluo Continent, partly to offer free Martial Soul Awakening and win over the hearts of the people.

On the other hand, it involves monitoring all parties and nipping any remnants of the Martial Soul Empire or the Heaven Dou Empire who are thinking of restoring their kingdoms in the bud.

Under the control of the Star Crown Sect, even those who had not awakened their innate soul power generally did not have to worry about having enough to eat and wear.

Even if some commoner soul masters were to have a change of heart, their fathers would lecture them, saying that instead of living a good life, they had to try to do something like anti-star soul restoration, and that they had nothing better to do.

As for the Soul Masters from various powerful factions, they knew the strength of the Star Crown Sect and dared not act recklessly in public. Their private actions were ultimately minor and could not affect the overall situation.

Xu Mingxi didn't care about those things. As long as he could maintain the apparent stability and continue to collect a large amount of faith, he would let these forces handle the minor issues.

Moreover, the Star Crown Sect is the biggest beneficiary in this whole affair, standing atop this vast empire to leech off others and constantly feed back to itself.

In each city, a Star God Temple was built, and a series of Star God statues stood tall. Each temple master in charge had the backing of the Star Crown Sect and held a high position in their territory, enjoying numerous intangible benefits.

Through these Star Temples, a vast amount of faith from across the continent converged into the demigod within Xu Mingxi's body, accelerating the fusion of the three gods' primordial power.

"The fusion speed is more than twice as fast as before. It should take another hundred years or so for the divine spark within my body to be perfected."

I just don't know if Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong will give them that chance. Where have they gone? The entire Douluo Continent is filled with Star God Temples, yet we haven't found a single trace of them.

In the years following that battle, Star Temples in various locations received a secret mission: to find Bibi Dong and her companion.

Unfortunately, after so long, there hasn't been a trace of her. It seems that Bibi Dong has made up her mind to hide away and cultivate to become a god.

The Douluo Continent is so vast, with so many deep mountains and forests, it's really unlikely that you could find two Title Douluos who are determined to hide.

With no other options, Xu Mingxi could only turn her attention to strengthening herself and, based on some of her experiences from her previous life, provide more convenience to the common people while maintaining the rule of the empire and the Soul Masters.

Furthermore, the Star God Temples in various regions were instructed to conduct strict inspections to prevent any egregious acts of oppression against the people. Under this pretext, the Star Luo Empire allocated a considerable amount of resources to the Star God Temples.

As for the Soul Master nobles whose interests were harmed in the process, with this legitimate reason, they dared not say much in front of the Star God Temple and the Star Crown Sect.

As for the members of the Star God Temple, the Star Crown Sect also has a corresponding supervisory department that regularly reviews and monitors the situation in various places to prevent collusion between superiors and subordinates as much as possible.

As a result, the people of Douluo Continent became increasingly devout in their faith in the Star God, and the entire Star Luo Empire presented a thriving picture.

At least while Xu Mingxi was still alive, no one dared to openly disobey his orders.

After dealing with the internal affairs of Douluo Continent, Xu Mingxi turned her attention overseas. Seagod Island was Seagod's territory and could not be touched, but Sun Moon Continent could be.

This is the sacred site where the gods of the sun and moon once passed down their lineage. Shouldn't it be ruled by him, the successor of these gods? What's the point of letting the Xu family and their ilk occupy it?

Without hesitation, Xu Mingxi ordered the release of Soul Tool blueprints, allowing forces across the Douluo Continent to participate and jointly promote the advancement of Soul Tool technology.

Finally, after several years, a major breakthrough was achieved in navigation technology, and a navigational device comparable to the Swordfish was successfully manufactured.

At this time, the Star Luo Empire had basically stabilized internally, and Xu Mingjie had become familiar with the affairs of the empire and successfully broke through to the Title Douluo level.

After Xu Mingxi appointed him as regent, he began his expedition, leading the Star Luo Empire's fleet to the land of the Sun Moon Empire.

With him, this peerless Douluo, how could the Sun Moon Empire, whose soul guidance technology had not yet reached its peak, possibly resist him? They were swept away like fallen leaves by the autumn wind and swept into the dustbin of history.

After eliminating all Soul Masters of Soul Douluo rank and above, the Sun Moon Empire was renamed the Star Luo Empire's Affiliated State, with Luo Yun serving as its king.

Under Xu Mingxi's military intimidation and the governance of the many political talents he specially brought, the people here gradually accepted their rule in just a few years. Star God Temples were established in various parts of the Sun and Moon Continent to enshrine the statues of the Star God.

After successfully establishing his faith, Xu Mingxi returned to Douluo Continent. As long as there was a continuous flow of faith coming to Sun Moon Continent, he would not care how Luo Yun governed.

If the faith here is broken, then he will have no choice but to accept and get rid of this older brother from his youth.

With the superposition of beliefs from the two continents, Xu Mingxi could feel the divine essence within his body evolving at an accelerated pace, and the speed of divine power fusion far exceeded his expectations.

He immediately returned to the back of Xingluo Mountain, sat cross-legged under the now-grown Star God Tree, and stopped paying attention to outside affairs, focusing on seclusion and cultivation to promote the fusion of divine power.

Fifty years later, the Star Luo Emperor Xu Mingjie, in the prime of his life, handed over the throne to his son and came alone to the back mountain. Looking at the land shrouded in the illusion of his brother Mingguang in the distance, he let out a sigh.

So many years have passed, and the Star Luo Empire has undergone earth-shattering changes. Even Qian Renxue has become a god and ascended to the God Realm. Why is my elder brother still not making any moves?

Just as he turned away dejectedly, the Star God Tree suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, instantly shattering the illusion set up by Xu Mingguang.

Endless sunlight streamed down, revealing even the silver moon and stars hidden in the darkness during the day. Boundless energy fell from the sky, and beams of light shot straight up from the ground.

This extraordinary sight was witnessed by everyone in the Douluo Continent. While the common people were still wondering, the major powers, seeing the direction of the pillar of light and the strange scene in the sky, had already guessed what was going on and rushed towards Xingluo Mountain immediately.

Xu Mingguang and the others were already astonished by this sight. All the soul masters of the Star Crown Sect gathered at the back mountain, excitedly watching this magnificent scene.

Xu Mingguang, who had become the sect leader, stood beside Xu Mingjie and even shed tears of excitement as he looked at the pillar of light in the distance.

"Mingjie, am I seeing things? That location, that commotion."

"That's right, absolutely right. My brother is really going to succeed this time. Our Star Crown Sect will eventually produce a god."
