Having delegated so state affairs to the civil officials responsible for the empire’s operations, Chu Yuan left behind the Enlightennt Book to forge his eternal body.
The Enlightennt Book was no longer the Enlightennt Book of the past; it recorded the empire’s epic—a saga that rged with the empire itself.
Now, the empire’s saga grows ever more grand, and he too requires a stronger form.
With a wave of his hands, the various materials obtained from the Eternal Netherland were refined and extracted by him into eternal materials.
His form was also a book, but now Chu Yuan employed world-changing thods to reforge it.
Eternal divine light shot forth, profound light dazzling.
The entire book underwent a major transformation, forged from eternal materials, and the cover was especially crafted from eternal divine gold.
The Enlightennt Book felt that its essence was being transford; a single movent brought out eternal divine power, rolling like a tide, carrying the empire’s annals, enough to battle a primordial god.
He was not a primordial god, yet he possessed a power comparable to one.
This power of his was entirely due to the empire.
And should the empire fall, he too would be instantly destroyed.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your assistance!"
The Enlightennt Book could distinctly feel the transformation of its essence, a kind of eternal material, pages upon pages of Chapters, with countless epics being enacted.
"I only laid the foundation for you, like laying the groundwork for a towering building, ready to be steadily fortified in the years to co."
Chu Yuan smiled and said, "Enlightennt, I have established friendly relations with Hongng College. In a while, you will take a group to the Lord of Hongng."
"Mutual exchange, Hongng College possesses nurous inheritances to complent deficiencies. I know what to do,"
nodded the Enlightennt Book.
"Go about your duties," Chu Yuan said.
The Enlightennt Book was extrely busy as the empire gradually expanded, constantly receiving people from the various heavens, along with internal operations and various military drills and other complicated matters.
Chu Yuan was focused on the construction of strategic war engines, primitive warships, and primitive great cannons.
Such engines consud a great deal of valuable resources, so had been created but had not reached a scale.
Nine purple-gold gourds, Chu Yuan gave them to his most intimate people.
The Empress Dowager, Chu Chenyao, Chu Chenxue, Chu Chenxi, Yaolinger, Luo Yueying, Shangguan Xian, Blood Rose.
Jiuyou was not within the empire; another one would be given when she returned.
Exactly nine to distribute.
Although Shenwu was no longer a small force within the microcosm, it was renowned across the heavens, and yet the Shenwu Empress Dowager lived her life very peacefully and low-key.
Though Chu Yuan would sotis visit her, the Empress Dowager no longer looked at Chu Yuan the way she used to; this ruler of the empire sotis even seed unfamiliar to her.
"Mother, here is a purple-gold gourd, a treasure I obtained from the Eternal Netherland. Wearing it brings great benefits,"
said Chu Yuan, personally delivering the purple-gold gourd to the Empress Dowager.
"Alright,"
replied the Empress Dowager, living a life as calm as still water.
She often accompanied the Imperial Mausoleum, lacking any innate talent for cultivation, simply living her quiet years, not disturbing Chu Yuan.
But as the Empress Dowager, Chu Yuan, even by using resources upon her, could elevate her to a high realm.
She did not need great strength, only the longevity brought by an elevated realm.
"Elder sister, second sister, Chenxi, take a purple-gold gourd,"
said Chu Yuan, giving them the purple-gold gourd.
Their training was different; they all possessed a heart for cultivation. Chu Yuan providing resources was also about letting them gain their own insights.
Being family, they naturally did not refuse Chu Yuan.
"Thank you, Emperor Brother,"
Chu Chenxi, although no longer the little girl of those years, still showed affection in front of her only brother, holding the purple-gold gourd, looking it over joyfully.
"Brother Yuan, there are many state matters. You don’t need to accompany us too much,"
Chu Chenxue, steady in character, said.
"Alas, breaking through the Heavenly Dao realm is too difficult,"
sighed Shangguan Xian, closely by Chu Yuan’s side, brows furrowed.
She dread of breaking through to this realm, but there was so consolation in that Blood Rose had not broken through either; otherwise, she’d be more vexed.
The more anxious she grew, the harder it was to find that opportunity.
"Don’t rush,"
laughed Chu Yuan. "Take it slow. In a while, you and Rose can accompany Enlightennt to Hongng College. There is the realm of Hongng God, which might give you so insights into the Dao, and post-Heavenly Dao, refine the Tianyuan Divine Elixer."
"Hongng College!"
Shangguan Xian’s eyes glead.
With matters here settled.
"The Divine egg."
Chu Yuan gazed at the divine egg shrouded in Hongng chaos, hearing the heartbeat-like thud, since acquiring it, much divine material had been invested.
Yet it still had not birthed.
A drop of seventh-realm eternal divine blood was dripped into it, instantly shooting out lightning, as if receiving its origin; sothing terrifying within was about to break out.
This seventh-realm god blood was extrely precious.
"Seal!"
Chu Yuan exercised profound skills to seal it, preventing its birth.
There was no need for it to erge now; this item intrigued him, and having invested so many resources into it, he didn’t mind investing more to see what exceptional creature it would produce.
He was now nurturing it with whatever precious materials he had, not aiming to shape it, treating it as a treasure trove-opening trial.
"I’m quite anticipating the future,"
smiled Chu Yuan, as after sealing it, the divine egg returned to tranquility.
Within Yaolinger’s herbal garden.
He had swept across the Eternal Netherland, bringing with him many rivers, which transford into heavenly rivers flowing here.
He dripped a drop of blood onto a small sapling shrouded in chaotic energy. Instantly, it absorbed the blood with a gurgling sound, exhaling a blood-red aura, and grew taller.
"Your Majesty, this chaotic tree seed is hard to cultivate,"
Yaolinger said, "I’ve expended enormous resources nurturing it, yet it’s still a re sapling. Growing it into a sky-high giant tree is exceedingly difficult, and I don’t know how much more it will cost."
She was quite helpless, too.
This chaotic tree seed was like a gold-eating beast.
"There’s no need to rush. The more energy it requires, the greater its potential. If it grows into a sky-high chaotic divine tree, all sacrifices will be worthwhile,"
assured Chu Yuan, having cut down many eternal divine trees in the Eternal Netherland.
He took out one, refined it, ground it into powder, and used it as fertilizer, scattering it underground. Imdiately, the sapling absorbed it rapidly, visibly growing.
Soon, it absorbed all the fertilizer, growing several tis larger than before.
"The eternal divine wood within the Eternal Netherland all contain eternal energy, and this chaotic divine tree craves eternal power; to truly let it stand sky-high, even all that I’ve cut down is far from enough,"
remarked Chu Yuan. "But now the Eternal Netherland has been claid by the Divine Great Emperor, and it’s inaccessible."
Indeed, the Eternal Netherland was full of treasures.
"We can’t rely solely on this fertilizer; the empire can’t afford it. I’ll use the breathing of all things to assist. The fertilizer it wants is too advanced; there’s no choice,"
Yaolinger, too, wished to see it sky-high.
"The cultivation of the divine tree is in your hands,"
said Chu Yuan, promising maximum support from his side.
He knew that once the divine tree matured, it would serve as a pillar of the empire’s sky, yielding trendous benefits.
"Divine Emperor,"
a submissive voice was heard.
"You’ve thought it through,"
said Chu Yuan to the white-robed elder at the door of the seal.
