Chapter 766: Chapter 290 People’s Will, Marrying Feng Mian, The First Descendant of an Immortal Body_1 Chapter 766: Chapter 290 People’s Will, Marrying Feng Mian, The First Descendant of an Immortal Body_1 Taibai Divine Province, White Emperor City.

Once one of the nine most formidable powers, White Emperor City was no longer glorious and the days were quite difficult.

The city was once splendid, its renown shining throughout the world, intimidating the universe for a hundred thousand years, known to all.

But in less than thirty years, White Emperor City’s splendor had burst like a bubble, rcilessly shattered.

First, the White Emperor was obliterated by Supre Leader Han Li in Qianyuan Divine Province, then five Supre Leaders broke into Taibai Immortal Realm and plundered countless treasures.

Not many years later, Supre Leader Han Li stord Taibai Immortal Realm again, bursting the White Emperor for a second ti and stealing all of Taibai Immortal Realm’s treasures, severely damaging White Emperor City, leaving only so treasures and resources stored outside.

In recent years, as Supre Leader Han Li traversed the great calamity of proving his Dao, the White Emperor colluded with the Butian Sect Master, the Western Sky Palace Master, the Supre Leader of the Qin Family, and the Supre Leader of the Jiang Family—four Supre Leaders—to block his way.

...

As a result, the White Emperor was burst by Supre Leader Han Li for the third ti, dying completely, and even involved the four Supre Leaders in his downfall.

Afterward, a small team from Chengsheng Mountain descended upon White Emperor City and took away most of the remaining resources, leaving the cultivators of White Emperor City in a dire state.

Supre Leader Han Li redefined the power structure of Yuankun Domain; White Emperor City, which once governed fifty-three Divine Provinces with four Heaven Imperial Realm Great Emperors, was left with only twenty-three Divine Provinces and two Heaven Imperial Realm Great Emperors after these events.

The two Heaven Imperial Realm Great Emperors no longer wished to stay in the declining White Emperor City, and the cultivators of the city were eagerly awaiting them to manage the new White Emperor City, hoping for better days.

A cook cannot make als without rice; the foundation of White Emperor City was exhausted, and its territory drastically reduced.

The resources from the remaining twenty-three Divine Provinces were just enough to sustain the consumption of all the cultivators of White Emperor City.

Yet White Emperor City had lost its attractiveness to cultivators, unable to offer various opportunities and destinies to help cultivators break through to higher realms, causing countless cultivators to want to leave White Emperor City and join Chengsheng Mountain, but Chengsheng Mountain was not accepting them.

Joining other powers wasn’t easy either, as they would infringe on the resources of the cultivators from the original powers.

Tis had changed, and many powerful individuals and outstanding talents from various forces were converging towards Chengsheng Mountain, leaving behind cultivators to compete with them.

Chengsheng Mountain was the supre Sacred Land of Yuankun Domain, not only far exceeding other powers in the domain in terms of cultivation environnt but also offering many tis better welfare and treatnt than other Sacred Lands.

Now, at Chengsheng Mountain, one could listen to the sermons of Supre Leader Han Li for free, which was an incredible fortune, and one could listen to his teachings regularly.

The two remaining Great Emperors of White Emperor City also wished to join Chengsheng Mountain, but Chengsheng Mountain did not accept them and had raised the threshold for new recruits, strictly controlling the number of cultivators.

With Chengsheng Mountain having no external enemies in Yuankun Domain and holding a monopoly, too many cultivators joining would encroach upon the resources intended for the descendants of Han Mansion.

In such a situation, even if the two Great Emperors wanted to establish their own sect, it wouldn’t be of much use, and they were too lazy to put in the effort.

Fortunately, Chengsheng Mountain had left them an option: if they managed White Emperor City well and after a period of observation, they could join Chengsheng Mountain and beco Chengsheng Mountain Elders, with revered status and generous treatnt.

At this mont, deep within the imperial palace of White Emperor City, the two Great Emperors were discussing state affairs with worried expressions.

The current state of White Emperor City was truly difficult to manage.

Even if the cultivators of White Emperor City made significant contributions, they couldn’t offer various opportunities and destinies as rewards, and without rewards, they couldn’t retain cultivators.

If it weren’t for the fact that these cultivators couldn’t find anywhere else to go for the ti being, they would have already left White Emperor City.

Despite this, countless cultivators were flocking to the thirty Divine Provinces that had been directly governed by Chengsheng Mountain.

As Divine Provinces directly under Chengsheng Mountain, a certain number of slots were allotted each year for joining Chengsheng Mountain.

“Old Qiu, when do you think we will see the light at the end of the tunnel?

What if we were to leave as well?” asked a Red Robed Emperor with a bitter expression.

He had absolutely no desire to deal with the ss that was White Emperor City, which offered no benefit at all, and the hope of joining Chengsheng Mountain seed distant.

“Old Hu, where could we go if we left?”

The Black Robe Emperor responded with a helpless smile.

The entirety of the Endless Yuankun Domain was under the rule of Chengsheng Mountain, if only in various forms of governance.

Unless they no longer wished to advance and break through to the Heavenly Immortal stage, they couldn’t abandon White Emperor City.

Now, all the major powers of Yuankun Domain were affiliated with Chengsheng Mountain and accepted Chengsheng Mountain’s rule; the connections between these powers and Chengsheng Mountain would inevitably beco even tighter in the future.

If they set out on their own, how could they compete with those powers?

Those powers had support, and they couldn’t outfight them or dare to do so.

They would be suppressed at every turn, better to stay in White Emperor City.

“Sigh, you’re right,” the Red Robed Emperor sighed, filled with infinite regrets and so words that couldn’t be spoken.

Chengsheng Mountain had Golden Immortals suppressing the fortunes, had many auxiliary supre treasures in the past, and recently, another auxiliary supre treasure had erged, reportedly capable of bestowing cultivators with Immortal Grade aptitude and Immortal Bodies.

This made countless cultivators even more eager for Chengsheng Mountain, solidifying its ruling position.

As Great Emperors of the Heaven Imperial Realm who hoped to advance, they would have to join Chengsheng Mountain, whether to use the supre treasures for purification or to gain other prospects for improving their cultivation, breaking through their realms, or comprehending the Dao.

“The Supre Leader has ordered us to manage White Emperor City well, and in return, he will grant us the position of Chengsheng Mountain Elders.

Let’s do it earnestly,” said the Black Robe Emperor.

“The authority and benefits of a Chengsheng Mountain Elder are extrely high, and even the newly erged supre treasure can be used once every five hundred years.

If we work hard, it’s possible that we could join Chengsheng Mountain within a thousand years,” he added.
