Moreover.
In terms of comprehension.
Gu Xianlin is also not lacking.
So for him to be able to break through the Three Tribulation Heavenly Venerable Realm, Gu Qingfeng was not surprised.
At the sa ti.
Gu Qingfeng’s Divine Thought spread out and soon covered the entire Mystic Sky Immortal City, with many bloodline descendants within the range of his divine perception.
Over thirty million years, the Gu Family bloodline has expanded to an astonishing extent.
Among them.
Those reaching the Heavenly Venerate Realm have significantly increased in number.
Thirty million years ago.
The Gu Family’s Longevity count barely reached ten, and hardly more than that.
But now.
Just within the Mystic Sky Immortal City, Gu Qingfeng has detected the presence of thirty to forty Longevity breaths.
And when Gu Qingfeng’s divine thought touched his own bloodline, in an instant, he sensed the situation of descendants throughout the Endless Immortal Domain.
"One hundred and thirty-six Longevity!"
"Just in terms of Longevity numbers, the Gu Family is estimated to be not weak among the many Longevity Families!"
Gu Qingfeng smiled slightly.
One hundred and thirty-six Longevity Heavenly Venerates, illustrating how powerful the Gu Family has beco.
...
The next day.
In the court.
When the hundred officials saw that familiar figure, their expressions changed, and they hurriedly bowed in salute.
"Greetings, Emperor!"
"Rise, my ministers!"
Gu Qingfeng said softly, his gaze already resting on the immortal officials below.
After thirty million years of developnt, all the immortal officials seated in the court are without exception Heavenly Venerates; none below this realm have the qualification to stand in the court.
After all, this Immortal Dynasty is not mundane; besides focusing on capability, cultivation is also indispensable.
However, as for capability, such things can be developed through study.
Even if one’s ability is lacking, after several million years of learning, one is destined not to be diocre.
Thus.
In the presence of Heavenly Venerates, capability is not crucial.
With enough ti to learn gradually, capability naturally isn’t a major issue.
Now, after thirty million years of accumulation, immortal officials of the court entering the Heavenly Venerate Realm is not a problem.
However.
Not all immortal officials are familiar with Gu Qingfeng.
So who have only recently entered the court were seeing Gu Qingfeng’s true form for the first ti.
"If there are matters to address, speak forth; otherwise, dismiss!"
Gu Qingfeng said.
As his words fell, an immortal official imdiately stepped forward to report so issues.
Regarding these matters, Gu Qingfeng handled them with ease.
After half a day.
Seeing no other immortal officials stepping forward, his gaze fell on the foremost figure.
"Crown Prince, do you know how many Immortal Domains remain in our Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty?"
"Reporting to the Father Emperor, for three million years, the Evil God Clan has been invading extensively. Initially, the Immortal Dynasty lost many Immortal Domains, and although we’ve stabilized the situation now, the domains initially lost have not been truly reclaid.
As of now, the Immortal Dynasty has approximately seventy-nine thousand Immortal Domains!"
Gu Yang responded truthfully.
Seventy-nine thousand Immortal Domains!
Compared to thirty million years ago, shockingly six thousand fewer Immortal Domains.
This result.
Was within Gu Qingfeng’s expectations.
Given that the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty had a bit of deficiency in its foundation, losing territories due to lack of top-tier guardians in the face of the Evil God Clan was inevitable.
It was thought that by now, possessing fifty thousand Immortal Domains would be quite good.
Unexpectedly.
Still having seventy-nine thousand Immortal Domains.
Such a result.
Indeed satisfied Gu Qingfeng.
"In our Imperial Family today, many descendants have entered the Heavenly Venerate Realm, reaching Longevity. What arrangents do you have for these individuals, Crown Prince?"
"All shall follow Father Emperor’s directives!"
Gu Yang was slightly startled, then bowed and spoke.
As he finished.
Gu Qingfeng pondered briefly and then spoke: "Transmit my decree, any Gu Family Heavenly Venerate who can independently capture the Evil God territory shall be appointed as a Prince, with the Immortal Domain they conquer as their fief.
The court will not interfere in the matters within the fief, only requiring annual tax tribute!"
Upon these words.
Nurous immortal officials’ faces changed.
By now, if they cannot discern the implication of Gu Qingfeng’s words, then they don’t deserve their positions.
On the surface, it’s about appointing Princes!
In reality.
It is to rely on the Gu Family’s Heavenly Venerates to expand the Immortal Dynasty’s territory.
Though said.
The Immortal Domains transforming into fiefs, with the court not intervening, ultimately these domains belong under the court’s jurisdiction and should not be ignored.
Not only this.
This thod attempts to alleviate royal family pressure outwardly, so the Immortal Dynasty does not maintain a batch of Heavenly Venerates without substantial contribution.
"Emperor is wise!"
Thus for Gu Qingfeng’s decision, everyone spoke in unison.
Gu Qingfeng nodded: "Since you all have no objections, let’s proceed like this. However, each Immortal Domain fief may only control a military force not exceeding one hundred million.
Should they want additional forces, they must inform the court for further decision; they cannot expand their forces privately. Violating this will result in the revocation of their territorial title!"
When he stated the last sentence, Gu Qingfeng’s expression turned sowhat cold.
Appointing Princes!
This is a double-edged sword.
It can accelerate the expansion of the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty but also requires prevention of regional Princes growing too powerful and threatening the stability of the Immortal Dynasty.
Though Gu Qingfeng believes that as long as he lives, the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty will not fall into chaos.
But—
Anything is possible; one should not fear a remote possibility.
If one day he is no longer around, relying on this system might ensure Princes don’t cause trouble.
...
News from the court.
Spread like a hurricane.
In an instant.
The Imperial Family was shaken.
Many Gu Family Heavenly Venerates erged from seclusion, their faces filled with joy.
"Appointing as Prince!"
"Good, I can finally go out and about!"
For these Longevity Heavenly Venerates, most of their ti is spent in seclusion, rarely moving about; even if occasionally, it is largely accompanying the army to resist the Evil God’s invasion.
But no matter what, in terms of freedom, it has always been sowhat lacking.
Now.
Gu Qingfeng’s decree made them see opportunity.
Though capturing an Immortal Domain is not easy, what does it matter?
As Heavenly Venerates, one has endless ti; not all Evil God Clans’ Immortal Domains have Heavenly Venerates stationed.
As long as they find weak Immortal Domains, their Heavenly Venerate realm can completely subdue them.
Thus.
Many Gu Family Heavenly Venerates now leave the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty heading into Chaos.
Regarding these matters, Gu Qingfeng didn’t concern himself too much, and after court dismissal, he summoned Gu Yang individually.
After millions of years of cultivation.
Gu Yang successfully reached the peak of Three Tribulations, just one step away from Four Tribulations.
This level of cultivation speed is naturally unquestionable.
As per Gu Qingfeng’s assessnt, within two million years, Gu Yang should have an opportunity to break through to Four Tribulations.
A Four Tribulation Heavenly Venerate under fifty-six million years old is considered remarkable in the entire Endless Immortal Domain.
Gu Qingfeng, after pointing out so cultivation issues to Gu Yang, then his mind entered the Underworld.
...
Over thirty million years.
The Underworld too underwent a transformation.
Originally, the Underworld covered rely half of a Mystic Sky Immortal Realm, but over thirty million years of evolution, it now spans ten Mystic Sky Immortal Realms in size.
With the Underworld’s elevation, it can accommodate far more True Spirits than before.
Regarding Ghost Soldiers.
Currently, the Underworld has a hundred thousand Ghost Soldiers.
Neither the Eighteen Layers of Hell nor other places are without Ghost Soldiers responsible for guarding various locales.
Not only this.
Within the Underworld, Gu Qingfeng has even seen Immortal Cities.
In the Immortal Cities, many cultivators live there to buy and sell, seemingly no different from the Mortal World.
Seeing this.
Gu Qingfeng raised an eyebrow, then with a thought, appeared in the Yama Hall.
Gu Peng, reviewing morials, upon seeing Gu Qingfeng’s arrival, hurriedly stood.
"This King pays respects to Emperor!"
"One Tribulation Heavenly Venerate Realm, not bad, looks like you’ve finally taken this step!"
Gu Qingfeng imdiately discerned that Gu Peng was different from the past; the latter had broken past the limits of the Great Emperor, truly entering the Heavenly Venerate realm.
