Chapter 459: Chapter 264: Nanli Prince Wen, The Reign Lasts for 3600 Years_2
The Death Realm was now extrely perilous. Any ordinary cultivator entering it faced certain death. For the sake of thousands of cultivators, the white-bone skeletons must be eradicated.
To prevent scoundrels from causing trouble in the Death Realm and aiding evil, and to prevent ordinary cultivators from dying at the hands of the white-bone skeletons, a decree was issued,
For ten years, aside from those from Nanli, the Jiguang Sect, the Sword Travel Palace, the Demon Clan, and disciples of the Buddhist sect holding docuntation of permission from Jiuhe City, any other cultivators entering the Death Realm would be considered as evil cultivators causing harm and would be killed!
…
The decree’s aning was simple. There were now many white-bone skeletons (skeletons associated with the Six Dao Ghosts) in the Death Realm. As the Lord of the Dead World, Chen Qing couldn’t bear to watch people co to die, so they should just not co.
The Death Realm was so dangerous now. If you still wanted to enter, it indicated ulterior motives, wanting to cause trouble and delay the extermination of the evil spirits and skeletons, definitely marking you as an evil cultivator. Thus, you would be killed.
To translate it succinctly, for ten years, except for those from Nanli, the Jiguang Sect, the Demon Clan, the Sword Travel Palace, and Buddhist sect disciples, anyone daring to enter the Death Realm would be executed!
Chen Qing’s intention was very clear, which ant that for ten years, others had better not attempt to enter the Death Realm.
Any who entered would be executed.
After this order was issued, soone finally beca anxious.
The Da Yan court stated that the previous private conflicts with Chen Qing were solely the will of Ji Dang and had nothing to do with Da Yan.
Now that there were white-bone skeletons causing trouble in the Death Realm, as the orthodox power under Heaven, Da Yan also needed to contribute and thus was justified in dispatching noble family descendants to assist.
(No, they absolutely must not prevent our people from entering the Death Realm. Our people still need to train.)
Chen Qing sent word, saying: The Death Realm was extrely dangerous now and not to be entered; dangerous matters should be left to the cultivators of Nanli.
(Screw you!)
From the Dragon Clan’s side, they announced with much fanfare the sending of Ao Huanxiu’s only daughter to the Qilin Temple, expressing their willingness to follow the directives of the Lord of the Dead World at any ti to slay evil spirits and skeletons and exterminate demons.
(It’s up to you.)
Chen Qing pondered how to conduct negotiations and wondered what title the Miao God would ultimately bestow upon him.
“Junior Brother Xu, in your view, what king title will Longevity Mountain give ?”
Xu Yaofeng thought for a mont, knowing Chen Qing’s thoughts, then said, “I feel it’s impossible for it to be Prince Wen.”
“After all, you are one of the senior figures in our Jiguang Sect.”
“The title of Prince Wen is too prestigious.”
Chen Qing said, “I think so too. The matter of ennoblent seems to be secured, but the title of Prince Wen is unlikely.”
“As I am now part of two sects and not pure.”
“If I were purely from Nanli, then perhaps there would be a chance to beco Prince Wen.”
Xu Yaofeng said, “Unfortunately, the matter of ennoblent completely depends on the preference of the Miao God. Even a True Monarch cannot influence it, nor can one gather any information.”
“Divine whims are beyond our prediction.”
Hearing this, Chen Qing understood that the matter was entirely dictated by the will of the Miao God.
In fact, he didn’t really want to be titled Prince Wen, as the position was indeed too exalted.
Moreover, there hadn’t been a Prince Wen enshrined in Nanli before. If he truly were enshrined as Prince Wen, he would be the first Prince Wen of Nanli.
Realizing that anxiety was useless, he relaxed.
Never mind, he thought, just wait for the title of king to be granted.
Another month passed, and the Nine Kings of Nanli reported Chen Qing’s deeds in the Death Realm to the Miao God during a festival at Longevity Mountain.
On that day, a paper carrying the Red Scripture Divine Oracle descended.
After King Wu honored the Miao God once more, he approached, respectfully burned incense, and carefully opened the paper, where it was inscribed,
[Country of Wen, the reign of the state shall last three thousand six hundred years after Chen Qing’s death.
Prince Wen shall temporarily reside in the palaces of the nine countries, rotating every three years.
Directing the Nanli Academy.
Authority to oversee all Mystic Gate Realm and below cultivators within Nanli territory.
Establishnt of Prince Wen Temple.
Posthumous enshrinent of Ji Dang as Jing King.
Let King Wu handle the matters.]
King Wu read through it several more tis and finally declared loudly, “The country is nad Wen, bestowed the title Prince Wen, temporarily residing in the palaces of nine nations, rotating every three years!”
“The state shall last three thousand six hundred years!”
“Direct Nanli Academy and command all Mystic Gate Realm and below cultivators within the Nanli territory.”
“Establishnt of Prince Wen Temple!”
“Posthumous enshrinent of Ji Dang as Jing King.”
“Let King Wu manage the grand ennoblent ceremony!”
After reciting, King Wu chuckled and said, “It should be polished, sent to Jiuhe City, and then dispatch an envoy to declare the Divine Oracle in the Death Realm.”
Upon hearing King Wu’s reading, especially that phrase “temporarily reside in the nine nations’ palace,” the Water King fainted on the spot.
King Wu cast a disdainful glance before performing a grand salute before the Miao God’s statue once more, then declared authoritatively: “Everyone, return to build the Prince Wen Palace.”
Fla King angrily said, “It really happened just as you wished!”
King Lin observed the surrounding kings, the Water King fainted on the spot, and the others’ expressions were varying shades of gloom.
Ultimately, the Miao God favored King Wu more, allowing him to handle the affairs and draw closer to Prince Wen.
Better achieving the old pedant’s desire to make the kings submit!
The matter quickly reached Chen Qing’s ears. Upon hearing that he was truly bestowed the title of Prince Wen, he was slightly incredulous.
“How did I actually beco Prince Wen?”
“What on earth are they thinking?”
“By the way, Su Yi, why is my kingdom’s longevity only three thousand six hundred years?”
“That seems way too short!”
“I could consu over half myself!”
However, Su Yi chuckled, “This longevity refers to the longevity after the king’s death or abdication and does not include the ti the founding king governs the Kingdom of Wen.”
“Moreover, the initial granting of state longevity years, this is only below King Wu. When King Wu was initially granted a title, it was only four thousand two hundred years.”
“In later years, after setting great deeds, further titles can be granted by the Miao God, expanding longevity.”
Chen Qing was sowhat satisfied, “So that’s what it is, not bad.”
To maintain for three thousand six hundred years after death was not bad.
However, Chen Qing didn’t want to dwell on this matter much.
With the Lifebound Gu of Emperor Earth and Houtu, who knew how long he could live?
As it seed now, upon breaking through to the Mystic Gate Realm, if utilizing the life span of Emperor Earth and Houtu, it would be at least a frightening two thousand years lifespan!
And his goal was to beco a True Monarch!
Chen Qing didn’t inquire about how the kingdom’s longevity was calculated after becoming a True Monarch. These were things he could look up in the classics himself, no need to ask.
Asking directly would be sowhat presumptuous.
After consulting the texts, Chen Qing learned that if he achieved the status of a True Monarch, after abdicating, the country would be renad, with its longevity extended by one thousand two hundred to one thousand eight hundred years. But no specifics were known.
Essentially, this would add his reigning period to the account.
For instance, the current Ye Country had been established after the Haoran True Monarch obtained the True Monarch status, removing King Wu’s title and renaming it, with his descendants inheriting the throne.
Chen Qing was surprised to learn that Haoran True Monarch’s forr title had been King Wu; it was indeed shocking.
He had originally assud that Haoran True Monarch would be the first Prince Wen, but who knew he was also once King Wu.
Undoubtedly, during his reign, much royal blood was spilled by his hands.
As he studied the texts, Chen Qing discovered that among those Kings who ascended to True Monarch status, only the Demon Suppressing True Monarch and Haoran True Monarch had evolved from King Wu.
anwhile, Nine Profound True Monarch and Evil Crossing True Monarch had existed from the beginning.
That ant that as the Miao God achieved divine status near the end of the Ancient Tis, those two True Monarchs were crowned, whereas the Demon Suppressing True Monarch and Haoran True Monarch were nurtured from King Wu later on.
The youngest True Monarch under the Miao God should be the Demon Suppressing True Monarch.
According to records, this Dominating True Monarch achieved the True Monarch status three thousand years ago and was among the most active True Monarchs of the current ti.
His disciples were nurous, with Mystic Gate Realm cultivators continuously erging.
As for the Nine Profound True Monarch and Evil Crossing True Monarch, they had not manifested in the human world for several millennia.
Therefore, when the kings of Nanli could not co to an agreent, they would commonly seek the opinion of the Demon Suppressing True Monarch.
Today’s Demon Suppressing True Monarch, due to his youth and active nature, had an imposing aura over the entire kingship of Nanli.
Aside from the topic of ennoblent and extended longevity, the Miao God rarely involved in other matters.
Regarding the nas and cultivation experiences of the various True Monarchs, there were completely no records; the world only knew their True Monarch titles.
The sole record stated that before the Demon Suppressing True Monarch attained the True Monarch status, there were demons in the world.
But after the Demon Suppressing True Monarch was granted status, there were no more demons on earth.
From this, it could deduce just how terrifying the power of a True Monarch was, capable of eliminating an entire race!
