The Divine Army was the legion that Chu Yuan aid to form. An army with a battle power akin to that of gods.
Aspiring to step on the heavens as gods and demons, those being recruited had to possess special constitutions or cultivated special techniques.
Unlike the elite forces like the Divine Martial Army and the Demon God Army, this particular legion didn't participate in straightforward assaults on the battlefield but instead carried out special tasks for Chu Yuan.
Tasks such as specifically assassinating leaders of the enemy, or transgressing boundaries to breach the enemy's Imperial City—tasks beyond the capacity of regular military units.
Command of the Divine Army wasn't under the military, but solely under Chu Yuan.
If the Divine Martial Army and the Demon God Army were the elites within all the armies, then the Divine Army would be the elite among all the strong.
"Divine Army!"
Everyone's hearts were shocked, imdiately followed by visible excitent and anticipation on their faces.
It was clear to them, being able to join the Divine Army was their luck. Directed by His Majesty in the future, they would beco his sharpest blade.
"Ning Xiuchen, train the Divine Army for during this period. Depending on the different powers they master, let them collaborate and provide them with the most suitable cultivation techniques to maximize their strength."
Chu Yuan had asked Ning Xiuchen to train this freshly-ford Divine Army.
Being a Celestial God of the tenth tier with exceptional insight and nurous divine abilities, he was able to assess these people's abilities at a glance and was tasked with integrating this batch of still uncoordinated troops.
"The formation of the Divine Army, everyone possessing different abilities, interesting. I have lived hundreds of thousands of years and never seen so many special constitutions. I'll take care of this matter for His Majesty."
A hint of anticipation also appeared on Ning Xiuchen's face. Special constitutions and divine abilities were rare, none in a billion, but now the many in Dawu aroused his desire as an old sage to train these people seriously.
"I'll personally concoct your pills."
Chu Yuan said, "Also, write down the details of your special divine abilities and hand them to . I will have the smiths in the Artifact Refining Corporation customize and create divine artifacts suitable for you."
The Divine Army was different from standby armies and had to be tailored as much as possible to maximize their combat power.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
These tens of thousands of people kneeled before Chu Yuan, their hearts full of excitent. This was a chance to beco the imdiate troops of His Majesty; they couldn't miss this opportunity.
The army units were set. Ning Xiuchen started personal training while he hadn't recovered his peak, he didn't need to cultivate.
Within the Imperial City of Dawu, Chu Yuan had asked Jin Chiyang to form a base exclusively for training the Divine Army.
Ouyang Ming, after having ingested the True God Pill, was already a True God. He was assigned to lead the Refining Master team to create equipnt especially for the Divine Army.
Occasionally, Ning Xiuchen would personally lead them to the Sea Demon Realm to practice under devil clan's training.
Of course, his training thods were extrely brutal and cold-blooded. Those who could not pass the training would be killed by devil clan's training.
Chu Yuan knew about his training thods but was indifferent. To build a mighty army, casualties were inevitable.
There wasn't much going on recently.
None of the nations within the Early Morning Dinsion dared to provoke Dawu.
Within the Sea Demon Realm, with the frontier base in place, Dawu's army spent their days training against the Sea Demon Realm's devil clan's training.
"Void God Seventh Rank!"
A few months later.
The national spirit was more cohesive, and the Human Dao river was like a vast sea.
Chu Yuan had consud a massive amount of top-grade Divine Elixirs. The recently refined elixirs, of which he had consud at least half, had finally allowed him to break into the Seventh Rank of Void God.
Too slow.
Chu Yuan shook his head in disappointnt.
Consuming Destiny Points or devouring True Gods seed to be faster.
"I still have two chances of a random draw."
Chu Yuan initiated the random draw.
The stronger the national power, the stronger the items that could be drawn.
"Host initiating random draw."
"Ding! The host has obtained the recipe for Ice Spring Wine through the random lottery!"
Ice Spring Wine Recipe: An extrely chilled ice wine that, upon consumption, will create a frozen sensation throughout the body, as if imrsed in extre cold. However, drinking in moderation can make one's spirit more tranquil, the primary spirit enters a more lucid state, suppress heart demons, and also speed up the absorption of primal energy.
[Note: The Ice Spring Wine is too extre, depending on the state of cultivation, one should not take too much of it]
Extre Ice Wine!
Chu Yuan's eyes sparkled.
Upon inspecting the ingredients necessary for brewing, he found that his system space had everything required, so he imdiately brewed so.
The wine deserved to be called Ice Spring Wine.
He swirled the wine in the glass.
The wine was as clear as if drawn from a cold pond, a chilling aura emanating from it causing a layer of frost to form in his sleeping chamber.
After taking a sip, it felt as though he had swallowed a block of ice, seemingly about to freeze his insides.
Yet the strength from the wine rendered his spirit extraordinarily lucid at that mont.
"This is good stuff. It can have miraculous effects when combined with cultivation. As powerful cultivators often beco restless due to internal fire during breakthroughs, causing unstable Qi and leading to loss of control, drinking this wine will help to suppress that."
Like the Hundred Flowers Brew, the recipe for Ice Spring Wine could be varied, and the strength of the brew depended on the preciousness of the ingredients used.

Chu Yuan prepared to brew so more. However, this wine could not be consud casually and should only be drunk in small amounts.
With one more chance at the lottery remaining, Chu Yuan used it imdiately.
"Ding! The host has won a Celestial God Strength Experience Card x1 through the random lottery."
Celestial God Strength Experience Card: After using the Celestial God Strength Experience Card, the host may possess the power of a Celestial God for one hour, during which various divine abilities and strengths will be enhanced to the strength of a Celestial God.
[Note: After the ti has elapsed, the strength from the experience card will disappear. The host will not suffer any after-effects, nor can it be stacked with the Human Emperor Sword.]
"Celestial God Strength Experience Card!"
A card gleaming with divine light appeared in Chu Yuan's hand!
Celestial God Strength Experience Card!
According to the system's description, it could grant him the power of a Celestial God for an hour. This was indeed a heaven-defying item, a trump card for a life-or-death crisis.
Although the effect only lasted for an hour, using it properly could have surprising effects.
"This card has arrived just in ti!"
Chu Yuan broke into laughter.
.....
Presently, the Dawu Kingdom has been living in peace and prosperity, developing rapidly.
Since the conclusion of the Martial Tournant, word had spread and countless geniuses had rushed over from various regions of both realms, all seeking to cultivate in the Dawu Academy.
The prodigies of Dawu had quite the reputation for their incredible potential. Who would not want to spend their golden age of cultivation in an even better and stronger place?
Dawu had beco a magnet, not only attracting geniuses but also many powerful cultivators, including so True Gods without major backgrounds.
The folks from other Imperial Dynasties jealous of Dawu's welfare. Every citizen of Dawu could cultivate freely in the academy, with the Imperial Court providing resources.
Moreover, the benefits that every Dawu citizen enjoyed were too good. This simply invoked people's resentnt. The Imperial Court would provide basic resources for cultivation, and they could also exchange precious elixirs for completing various tasks.
So people, though not in Dawu, had already set their hearts on it.
The various nations of the Chenchu Realm had no choice but to watch as this occurred. If Dawu were weak, they would have certainly tead up and waged war on Dawu to seize their resources.
But Dawu was too strong. Who would dare to wage war against it?
It was already good as long as Dawu did not initiate an attack.
One could only silently bear it if their national strength did not match.
"An invitation from the Yuanling Sect, specifically inviting and the spirit consort to attend?"
One day, Chu Yuan's brow furrowed when he received an invitation.
