Immortality: Starting with a grave, I'm invincible when burying corpses.

But after discovering this terrible truth, Mu Yong's attitude underwent a complete 360-degree change.

He abandoned the original practice of intermarriage within the clan and instead allowed royal descendants to marry other outstanding members of prominent families, attempting to improve the Mu family's bloodline.

Unfortunately, there are very few families in the entire Great Spirit Empire that have produced terrestrial immortals.

Fang Wuxiang of the Five Elements Sect, Mu Yong felt annoyed just looking at his old face.

Qingxi, who lives in seclusion in the mountains, has many descendants who dislike cultivation but are quite accomplished in business. Her business empire is among the top in the entire Great Spirit Empire, but she has made no achievements in cultivation.

Linjiang Aoyun, a woman of lewdness, let's not even mention her!

Looking at the misfits and deformities within the Great Spirit Empire, Mu Yong felt utterly exhausted.

The eternal prosperity of the Mu family rests entirely on the shoulders of Mu Yong.

Unfortunately, he had the ambition to make the Mu family immortal, but lacked the talent to do so.

Ye Lin's proposal for a marriage alliance has truly resonated with Mu Yong.

Such an excellent bloodline as the Bai family must be brought into their Mu family!

Import! Import on a large scale!

Not only will his sons marry into the Bai family, but Mu Yong himself will also marry a princess from the Bai family!

Upon receiving Ye Lin's letter, Mu Yong immediately declared in court that Dong Qi's actions were inhumane and disrupted the order among the nations of the Tianqi Domain, and should be severely condemned.

However, the Great Spirit Empire is currently focusing all its resources on developing the Yin Yin Domain, resulting in a severe fiscal deficit and its army being hundreds of thousands of miles away, making it difficult to provide military assistance to its allies.

Considering the long-standing friendly relationship between the Mu and Bai families, the Great Ling Empire, despite its "difficult situation," could not stand idly by.

Mu Yong stated that he was willing to provide the Bai family with ten million shi of grain, thirty thousand sets of talisman armor, five thousand heavy cannons, and hundreds of warships of various sizes in the name of the Mu family's royal family...

At the same time, Mu Yong received Bai Ran with the highest level of etiquette. The banquet lasted for seven days, with rare and exotic fruits, spiritual food and fine wines provided continuously, which can be described as extremely extravagant.

At the banquet in honor of Bai Ran, Mu Yong stated that the tenth and thirteenth princes of the Great Ling Empire were both men of marriageable age and wished to form a marriage alliance with the Bai family princess, thus establishing an everlasting bond.

The assembled officials were overjoyed and shouted the name of the great true ruler.

In the festive atmosphere, Mu Yong announced his plan to marry the Bai family's imperial concubine.

With three joyous occasions, it was time to celebrate. Amidst laughter and merriment, the banquet was extended for another seven days.

……

The news of the Great Spirit Empire's royal family marrying the princess of the Great Time Empire spread quickly, immediately creating an indescribable sense of crisis among all nations.

Although the Great Spirit Empire withdrew from the competition for the Apocalypse Domain, other countries still remained wary of it and dared not underestimate its strength.

This is a kingdom created by the Great True Lord, and no matter how indifferent the gods may be, it should not be underestimated.

How great and dazzling is the True Lord?

Even a tiny bit of resources falling from the fingernails of a True Lord would be enough to make the Great Spirit Empire incredibly wealthy.

The Five Spirits Fleet traveling between the two continents is the best evidence.

Each country needs to spend decades or even centuries and countless resources to build an air force.

The Great Spirit Empire is different; they don't have to do anything to possess a massive fleet that can dominate the world.

In recent years, the newly added three Five Spirits Legions have also officially joined the development of the Yin Yin Domain. The seven legions soar through the sky, possessing the power to suppress any dissent at any time.

The massive air fleet made other countries drool with envy, wishing they could replace it.

In response, a number of high-ranking officials of the Great Spirit Empire expressed their opinions.

Each country only needs to pool its resources to build its fleet, spending some money and time, while the Great Ling Empire has many more things to consider.

They must constantly think about how to bask in the glory of the great true king!

This is such a difficult task, requiring countless brain cells to die every day!

To demonstrate his sincerity in forging an eternal alliance between the Great Spirit Empire and the Great Time Empire, Mu Yong dispatched a massive fleet, almost comparable to the Immortal Spirit Legion, to the Great Time Empire.

Don't ask them when they were built. Mu Yong said that a fleet is something you can get by just crying to Mu Ling'er for a while!

In the eyes of true masters, all that talk about an invincible fleet is just a toy!

As long as you find enough reasons to shift the blame onto the common people, and keep arguing and make the situation sound more tragic, Mu Ling'er won't refuse.

In his final days, Mu Yong managed to acquire quite a few treasures from Mu Ling'er.

I, Mu Yong! Emperor of the Great Ling Empire! My defining characteristic is immense wealth and power!

On the other hand, after receiving such a huge gift, Ye Lin was overjoyed and chose to reciprocate.

He and Bai Xi made a guarantee to Mu Yong in the name of the Great Empire.

If the Great Empire were to one day unify the world, it would be willing to bestow upon the Great Spirit Empire all the coastal areas on the eastern side of the Apocalypse Domain, as well as the numerous islands in the eastern sea.

The Great Empire only retained some outlets to the sea along the eastern coast for trade.

At that time, the Great Era Empire will dominate the inland areas of the Apocalypse Domain, while the Great Spirit Empire will rule the ocean, sharing the highest honor of the human race.

After numerous long-distance exchanges, the rulers of both countries developed their own ideas.

The Great Empire boasts the most expansive territory, the largest population, and extremely advanced productivity.

The Great Spirit Empire possesses a powerful air and sea legion, and its high-end combat forces are also numerous.

With the two forces working together, it seems that Tianqi Domain is not insurmountable.

After Ye Lin's persuasive words, Mu Yong suddenly felt that he was back to his old self.

This time is different!

After several discussions, Mu Yong had already decided to cooperate fully with the Great Shi Empire.

But the shadows of the past century have always lingered in his mind.

Mu Yong remembered clearly that he had the same idea when he wanted to contend for the world a hundred years ago, but the war lasted for a hundred years.

On one hand, there was the rapidly developing and triumphant maritime industry; on the other hand, there was the Tianqi Domain that he couldn't forget. Mu Yong was torn between these two options and couldn't make up his mind.

Whichever side he chooses, the progress of the other side will be greatly affected.

It was at this moment that the crimson-red Liuyun silently appeared in the palace of the Great Spirit Empire and threw a divine sword with mountains, rivers, ancient cities and towns engraved on its surface in front of Mu Yong.

"The boss gave this to you!"

"Mountains and rivers, towering palaces and halls, countless people... Hiss! These sacred patterns! These exquisite textures! This dazzling appearance! Sword Master, could this sword be...?"

The moment Mu Yong saw the Qiming Sword, his eyes widened. He picked it up like a precious treasure, stroking it gently with both hands, and murmuring the glory that belonged to the Qiming Sword.

The obsessive look greatly displeased the immature Liu Yun. Its nemesis, Liu Yun, was right in front of it, so why was it praising other swords instead of praising it properly?

Dissatisfied, Liu Yun immediately brandished his sword, making a gesture as if to strike.

"Why are you talking so much? Do you want this ugly thing or not? If not, I'll chop it in half right now!"

The words, spoken with a hint of temper, made Qiming Sword tremble. Mu Yong also repeatedly admitted his mistake and proceeded to shower Liuyun with praise, extolling it as the world's strongest, most beautiful, and most righteous peerless divine sword.

In the blissful state of mind, Liu Yun finally remembered his business.

"By the way, the boss said that you and Ye Lin should end the war as soon as possible, and the Nine Regions should prioritize peace from now on!"
