My strength increases by one percent every day; I can destroy stars with my bare hands.

Li Xuancang and Murong Yuntian quickly arrived at the outer edge of the Spirit Realm.

Countless creatures have gathered here, eyeing the spirit realm with covetous intent.

As soon as Elder Jianmu passes away, they will immediately storm into the spirit world.

"Damn it, who leaked the news that the Ancestor was about to pass away?"

Chaos erupted in the spirit world, and all living beings there were filled with fear and unease.

They have discovered countless greedy people outside the boundary, and it seems they can already see their own future.

"There are quite a few people eyeing the spirit world!"

Li Xuancang and Murong Yuntian entered the Spirit Realm in secret without being exposed.

Upon their arrival, Elder Jianmu received them immediately.

"Greetings, senior."

Li Xuancang bowed to the old man Jianmu with the respect due to a junior.

No one knows how long the Old Man Jianmu lived; all that is known is that he existed since the beginning of the spirit world, and is a true living fossil of all the heavens and myriad realms.

"Young friend, you're too kind."

The old man Jianmu looked at Li Xuancang, his deep eyes revealing a look of horror.

"Young friend, your skill is beyond my reach; I can only look up to you in awe."

The old man Jianmu has a special ability to see into people's hearts and sense the strength of others.

Li Xuancang's strength shocked him; even at his peak, he was no match for him.

All the realms believed that Li Xuancang was in the mid-stage of the Cave Heaven Realm, but they were all deceived. Li Xuancang had already broken through to the late-stage of the Cave Heaven Realm.

After seeing Li Xuancang's true strength, Elder Jianmu became even more determined to submit the Spirit Realm to the Divine Dynasty.

"Young friend, the Spirit Realm can submit to the Divine Dynasty. I have only one request... to treat the Spirit Race well."

The old man Jianmu was fully aware of the situation in all the heavens and myriad realms, and knew that time was running out for the spirit realm.

He and Li Xuancang met frankly and openly.

"Senior, rest assured, as long as I rule the Divine Dynasty, I will treat the Spirit Race equally. Even if I no longer rule the Divine Dynasty, I will do my best to protect the Spirit Race and prevent them from being bullied."

Li Xuancang made a solemn promise to the old man Jianmu.

Upon receiving Li Xuancang's promise, the old man Jianmu smiled, sensing Li Xuancang's sincerity.

"Alright, I'll leave the spirit realm to you, young friend."

Without much hesitation, the old man Jianmu handed over the Spirit Realm to Li Xuancang.

He had neither the time nor the energy to make other plans, and could only hope that Li Xuancang would keep his promise.

Murong Yuntian stared in disbelief, speechless.

He had to plead and beg until the old man Jianmu finally relented.

When Li Xuancang and the Elder Jianmu first met, they exchanged a few words, and the Elder Jianmu willingly handed over the Spirit Realm to Li Xuancang, as if it were a dream.

"Comparing people is a recipe for disaster; comparing goods is enough to make them worthless!"

Li Xuancang was indeed no ordinary person; he couldn't be judged by ordinary standards. Murong Yuntian gave a bitter laugh.

"Senior, should I drive these people away?"

Li Xuancang looked at the various forces hovering outside the Spirit Realm and spoke indifferently, as if dealing with everyone was an easy task.

He has already made the spirit world his own, and will not allow others to covet it.

"Young friend, the most urgent task is to establish a teleportation array as soon as possible so that the Divine Dynasty can take over the Spirit Realm."

The old man Jianmu did not let Li Xuancang take action. The most important thing at present was to establish a teleportation array so that the Divine Dynasty army could help resist the invasion of the Abyss.

"What you say is very true, senior."

Li Xuancang did not insist; as long as the teleportation array was established, he could arrive at any time.

Li Xuancang left Murong Yuntian behind and quickly returned to the capital.

As soon as Li Xuancang returned, Yan Fa immediately came to report.

"Your Excellency, the Primordial Church has rejected our request."

Li Xuancang made exorbitant demands, and the Taichu Sect refused to cooperate with him.

The myriad realms are not limited to the Eternal Divine Dynasty. The Celestial Realm, the Mystic Realm, the Beast Realm, the Buddhist Realm... all possess considerable strength and have more options, so they don't need to be fixated on the Eternal Divine Dynasty.

Li Xuancang's expression remained unchanged. Now that he had the support of the Spirit Realm, the support from the Taichu Sect was dispensable.

"Inform everyone to convene the Eternal Council."

Li Xuancang was to convene the Eternal Council to inform everyone about the matter of seeking refuge in the spirit world.

Before long, the members of the Eternal Council arrived.

"I recently went to the Spirit Realm, and the Spirit Realm has agreed to join the Divine Dynasty."

Li Xuancang was known for his outrageous and thought-provoking words, which were sure to shock and terrify anyone who spoke them.

"What? Is this real?"

Everyone was shocked, and Zhang Mingyang even stood up.

Everyone was utterly shocked, their hearts filled with a storm of emotions.

After the initial shock, everyone was overjoyed.

The spirit realm is rich in resources, surpassing all other realms. Obtaining resources from the spirit realm would easily solve the problem of an empty national treasury.

"Immediately send the Array Hall to the Spirit Realm to set up a teleportation array and send the army there to resist the invasion of the Abyss."

Li Xuancang issued the orders methodically.

Upon hearing that troops were to be sent to the spirit world, everyone quickly recovered from their initial surprise.

The spirit realm was invaded by the abyss and surrendered. The divine dynasty needed to deploy a huge force to guard it, which undoubtedly increased the burden on the divine dynasty.

No one objected.

Compared to support from the spirit world, sending troops to the spirit world to participate in the war is more acceptable to everyone.

"I am prepared to reserve a place for the spirit world in the Eternal Council."

Li Xuancang once again uttered something astonishing, causing everyone to widen their eyes in disbelief.

"Lord Li, what are you saying?"

Everyone looked at Li Xuancang in disbelief and questioned him loudly.

Accepting the Spirit Race's allegiance was already the limit of what everyone could accept, but Li Xuancang actually wanted to let the Spirit Race members enter the Eternal Council, which they absolutely refused to allow.

"Lord Li, you are not of our kind; your heart must be different. You are foolish!"

The Eastern Divine Fire was filled with disappointment and frustration.

Haven't humans been betrayed by other races enough?

"Lord Li, you are defying the world's will, and I will never allow it."

Meng Youran, the leader of the Protector of the Nation Cult, unequivocally opposed it.

The Divine Cult is the most hostile force to foreign races, and in recent years it has been spreading propaganda about the many misdeeds of foreign races, and will never allow Li Xuancang to act perversely.

"You have to agree whether you like it or not."

Li Xuancang spoke in a cold voice.

His icy gaze swept across the entire room, and everyone felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave, their bodies chilled to the bone.

"In my opinion, the Eternal Council is completely superfluous. I will report to the God Emperor and have the Eternal Council abolished."

Li Xuancang thought that no one would dare to oppose him anymore, but he didn't expect that they would still dare to oppose him.

Li Xuancang decided to abolish the Eternal Council and strip them of their power.

"What? You dare?"

At this point, the crowd no longer cared about fearing Li Xuancang's tyranny; they glared at him with fury and thunderous rage.

Ignoring everyone else, Li Xuancang went directly to the Imperial Palace.

"What should we do? Should we stop Li Xuancang?"

Everyone was extremely anxious and in a state of panic.

If Li Xuancang were to abolish the Eternal Council, their power would be greatly diminished, their glory would be gone, and the entire Divine Dynasty would be at Li Xuancang's mercy.

While everyone was at a loss, Li Xuancang had already arrived at the imperial palace.

When Li Xuancang arrived, the Imperial Guards dared not delay and immediately notified Qin Shouqian to come quickly.

"Why has Lord Li come?"

"I want to report to the God Emperor and have the Eternal Council abolished."

Li Xuancang stated his purpose directly.

Upon hearing this, Qin Shouqian looked puzzled.

"Doesn't Lord Li know? The Eternal Council was established independently by numerous departments, and the God Emperor doesn't interfere."

Upon hearing this, Li Xuancang looked astonished and immediately realized that he had misunderstood.

If that's the case, things become even simpler.
