Become a king right from the start, beginning with receiving rewards from all the heavens.

The reward for just one sacrifice allowed the territory of the underworld to expand by two more states.

Who in the world could expand their power faster than him? Xia Zhaoyan was filled with pride at this moment.

Once all thirty-six branches of the Underworld are established, the Underworld will be the largest force in the martial arts world on the surface.

Of course, Xia Zhaoyan also knew that the martial arts world of Great Xia was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

Some forces that have been passed down for tens of thousands of years, or even more than one hundred thousand years, are simply keeping a low profile.

When he was still living in the palace, he once went to the palace library to look up the history of the Great Xia Dynasty.

I stumbled upon a book that surprisingly contained a separate record of a force called the Heavenly Sword Sect.

This is a hidden giant power beneath the surface of the Great Xia Jianghu, and surprisingly, a Dragon Transformation Realm expert is in charge of it.

He didn't know exactly how many such forces existed in the Great Xia Dynasty, but he estimated that there weren't many, otherwise how could the royal family have been so peaceful for 100,000 years?

But there was definitely more than one. From then on, Xia Zhaoyan understood that the martial arts world was not so easy to navigate.

Next, Xia Zhaoyan distributed the special masks and tokens of the underworld to everyone.

Because there aren't enough, we can only give them to the strongest people first.

"Next, we need strong warriors like you to escort those thousand guards out of here."

"By having Duan Lang manipulate the situation, the guards outside the mansion were misled!"

Before long, a thousand celestial guards quietly left the mansion.

Soon, they dispersed and merged into the flow of people heading to the imperial city.

Over the next few days, they will gradually join the Heavenly Punishment Division.

It can be said that with the addition of these people, the overall strength of the Heavenly Punishment Division has increased significantly.

After all, there were ten Purple Mansion Realm cultivators, twenty Innate Realm cultivators, and over nine hundred guards who were about to undergo tribulation and break through to the Innate Realm.

It should be noted that before Xia Zhaoyan took over the Heavenly Punishment Division, the headquarters of the Heavenly Punishment Division had less than twenty Purple Mansion Realm experts in total.

At that moment, he mentally commanded the system to bring the last three people into the world.

A ripple appeared on the void gate, and then two men and a woman walked out.

Especially the woman, whose appearance was in no way inferior to Wanwan and Xuanxuan who were present.

In particular, her unique charm as a beautiful woman was something that the two women simply couldn't match.

Xia Zhaoyan's eyes lit up. He knew this woman was beautiful; after all, she was one of the most discussed characters among book fans in his previous life.

Even in movies and TV dramas, the actresses who play this role are always beautiful.

This is a villain with a tragic backstory, obsessed with love, whose personality becomes twisted due to love turning into hatred, yet he still retains a sliver of kindness and humanity.

His dying words, "What is love in this world that makes people willing to die for it?", evoke a deep sense of empathy in people.

"Your Highness, I, Li Mochou, pay my respects!"

"Your Highness, I, Zhang Danfeng, pay my respects!"

"Your Highness, I, your subordinate Gongsun Yin, pay my respects!"

...

"Please rise, all three of you!"

At this moment, Wanwan and Xuanxuan were both staring at Li Mochou.

They secretly compared themselves to each other, and then couldn't help but sigh, even though they were no less beautiful than the women on the list.

Everyone has to admit that she is a very charming woman.

Judging solely from her appearance, she possesses all the virtues of a woman.

In particular, the two of them looked down at themselves and then looked enviously at each other's magnificent figures.

Having spent so much time with His Highness, they naturally know what kind of woman he likes.

"What are the current cultivation levels of the three of you?"

As Xia Zhaoyan spoke, his gaze involuntarily turned to Zhang Danfeng, who was the number one martial artist in that world.

"Your Highness, your subordinate Zhang Danfeng has now reached the peak of the Celestial Realm!"

Name: Zhang Danfeng.

Cultivation level: Perfected Celestial Realm.

Combat strength: Mid-stage of the Shattered Realm!

Lifespan: Longevity.

Technique: Heavenly Sea Return to Origin Technique.

"Excellent! Master Zhang's combat strength has actually reached the mid-stage of the Shattered Realm!"

"It seems that another top-tier expert has been added to my ranks!"

The expressions of the people standing nearby changed. Who would have thought that this seemingly gentle and refined gentleman actually possessed the combat strength of the mid-stage of the Shattered Realm?

"Your Highness, I, Gongsun Yin, am currently at the early stage of the Celestial Realm!"

Name: Gongsun Yin.

Cultivation level: Early stage of Celestial Realm.

Combat strength: Late stage of Celestial Realm!

Lifespan: Longevity.

Cultivation Technique: Heavenly Yang Sacred Technique.

If the outside world knew that Xia Zhaoyan had so many Celestial Realm experts under his command, the princes would probably join forces against him without hesitation.

At this moment, Li Mochou stepped forward and bowed.

"Your Highness, your subordinate Li Mochou is now at the mid-stage of the Grandmaster realm!"

Hiss... The voice seemed to possess an innate allure, and the men present almost simultaneously activated their internal energy techniques to eliminate the effects of this alluring sound.

Cough cough!

Xia Zhaoyan pretended that he was unaffected, but in reality, a surge of primordial power within him almost erupted.

"Gentlemen, I have discussed this with Mr. Zhuge before."

"I am preparing to establish another force, which, unlike the Underworld, will be my open and aboveboard tentacles for intervening in the cultivation world."

"It must exist as a legitimate sect, so do you have any names in mind?"

"Your Highness, how is the Righteous Path Sect?" Wanwan hurriedly jumped out and asked.

Xia Zhaoyan shook his head speechlessly. This name is too grand. This is a world of high martial arts. You named it the Righteous Path Sect. Do you want to become the leader of the righteous path?

Then don't do anything else, just wait for those hypocritical righteous cultivators in the martial arts world to come and challenge you.

Seeing everyone frowning in thought, Xia Zhaoyan suddenly remembered a name.

"Gentlemen, what do you think of the name Bai Yujing?"

"The Jade Capital in the heavens, with its twelve towers and five cities, a celestial being touched my head, granting me eternal life!"

Suddenly, everyone's eyes lit up. "This is a great name!"

It not only symbolizes the mystery and nobility of power, but also gives people the feeling that this is a power established by immortals.

Immortals have existed on the Tianhuang Continent for countless years.

Whether immortals exist or not, nobody knows.

Since the beginning of cultivation, living beings have believed that immortals must exist in the world.

Just because something doesn't exist on the Tianhuang Continent doesn't mean it doesn't exist in all the myriad realms.

Just like in the cultivation system of Tianhuang, the last realm is called the Human Immortal Realm.

They didn't even dare to use "Immortal Realm" as a substitute, and could only refer to it as "Human Immortal Realm".

This shows just how much awe the beings of this world hold for the existence of "immortals".

"Baiyujing, this is the power I will openly display from now on!"

"The internal organizational structure, from highest to lowest, is as follows: Immortal Lord, Martial Emperor, Martial King, Martial Marquis, City Lord, Tower Lord, Elder, Protector, Immortal Soldier."

"I am the Lord of the Immortals!"

"From today onwards, Zhang Danfeng, Gongsun Yin, and Zhang Han are hereby appointed as Marquises of Baiyujing."

"Zhuge Zhengwo is appointed as one of the city lords of Baiyujing, to lead the establishment of the Central Qilin City!"

"Baiyujing governs five cities and twelve towers: the central Qilin City, the eastern Qinglong City, the western Baihu City, the northern Xuanwu City, and the southern Zhuque City!"

"Each city shall have one city lord, with no limit on the number of deputy city lords. The cultivation level of both the city lord and deputy city lords must be at least at the Dharma Aspect Realm!"
