33: Chapter 32 The Great Xia God-Making Plan

The Great Xia Cabinet Meeting.

Two elderly men watched as eight projection screens gradually connected, initiating the first cabinet policy discussion since the recovery of the Great Xia world.

"Since the councilors of the nine cities are all in place, I won't waste words. Let's get straight to the point."

Sitting in the main seat was the Chairman of the Great Xia Cabinet; he scanned the room.

He continued: "Currently, Great Xia faces internal troubles and external threats. Bizarre incidents are erupting frequently. Although we have the support of the Taoist sects, their strength is too great and is not suitable for the internal development of Great Xia."

Chang'an Councilor: "During the Yao Beast chaos, the Taoist sects exhausted everything for Great Xia. I don't believe we should suppress their development."

Yunzhong: "That is true. The Nine Heavens Taoist Sect was completely wiped out. I hope the councilors will carefully consider the current situation and whether our Great Xia military has the strength to oppose the Yao Race."

Luoyang: "Since ancient times, martial artists have violated prohibitions with their skills. When a person's power reaches a certain level, they will ignore the law. I feel the Taoist sects are already showing this trend."

Yanjing Councilor: "Sikong, I heard that Tianfu City has already begun forming a Peak combat force. It's been two months; how is it? Is there any possibility of promoting it nationwide?"

Tianfu: "The young men's strength is quite good, but they are still too green. However, this method can be made a bit more precise."

Chairman: "Oh? Tell us about it."

Tianfu: "Concentrate the power of an entire city to Cultivate one person to the limit."

Qifeng: "The power of a city... that could create a god, right?"

Tianfu: "Great Xia has no gods, and the Taoist sects are powerful. The various temples that were originally sealed off are also showing signs of descending the mountains. If the military does not have Peak combat power to suppress them, I fear the future Great Xia will change from ruling by law to having religions judge life and death."

The meeting hall fell silent for a moment.

The Chairman was the first to speak: "Sikong's words make some sense. I propose that the Great Xia God-Creation Project be implemented. By leveraging the full power of their cities, we will create nine Great Xia deities. Councilors of each city, please vote."

There was no clamor; the councilors of the nine cities remained silent.

Leveraging the power of an entire city to create a god.

This wasn't just talk. If it were truly implemented, strategic cultivation resources would be fully dedicated to supporting one person. This would be a disastrous blow to the other soldiers in the military.

A full three minutes passed.

Tianfu City was the first to cast a vote in favor.

Subsequently, Yanjing, Luoyang, Shangdu, and Chaoge followed suit.

The four councilors from Chang'an, Jinling, Qifeng, and Yunzhong cast votes against it.

The Speaker scanned the room and announced: "Five votes in favor, four against. I hereby announce that the Great Xia God-Creation Project is officially launched. As for the candidates, each of your cities will decide for yourselves."

The councilors of the four opposing cities sighed inwardly but said nothing. The cabinet council system was established at the founding of Great Xia.

Even if they disagreed with the resolution in their hearts, they would still strictly implement it.

...

...

The Secret Realm ended.

By the time Ye Xiu returned to the mountain range, three whole days had passed.

"General, your strength..."

An Qingyi was somewhat shocked. Ye Xiu's current aura was simply too strong. After she emerged from the trial, her strength had reached the third rank of the Mingdao Realm.

Yet in front of Ye Xiu, she still felt a heart-pounding sense of dread.

Ye Xiu smiled, glanced at the sky, and said, "I'm returning to Tianfu City. As for Yunzhong City, since the crisis has ended, I won't be returning with you."

An Qingyi nodded: "Since the General has made up his mind, then this humble girl wishes the General a smooth journey. If there is an opportunity in the future, I hope the General can visit Yunzhong City; I will certainly host you well."

"Hehe... there will be a chance."

Ye Xiu chuckled, and with a step, he vanished into the horizon.

His speed was unbelievably fast.

Below, An Qingyi gave a soft sigh and also flew into the sky, heading toward Yunzhong City.

Above the clouds.

Ye Xiu was flying rapidly through the air.

His current strength was at the edge of breaking through the God-One Realm. Right now, he only wanted to rush to the Nine Realms Tower to accept the assessment, seeking to break through his own strength limits.

Inside the Nine Realms Tower.

Although the battles within were extremely tragic.

Every opponent was at the limit of a Divine Body, but Ye Xiu had confidence in his own strength.

Even with the same Divine Body and the same Realm.

I am invincible.

This was his Martial Dao heart.

Unfortunately, the nine shackles within the Heaven-Breaking Martial Body Bloodline were too strong, and his Primordial Martial Arts General Outline was not particularly powerful when breaking through Realms.

Otherwise, he could have fought fewer times in the Nine Realms Tower.

After all, entering the Nine Realms Tower resulted in either a Breakthrough or death; there was no third outcome.

The sky was vast and the sea wide.

Trees surged into the clouds.

The Yao Beasts along the way became increasingly massive, and more and more Yao Race members were taking human form.

Ye Xiu killed every single one he encountered. In short, his attitude toward the Yao Race was a single word: kill.

Half a month later.

Ye Xiu had arrived in the airspace above the Tianfu City war zone.

He lingered above the clouds for a moment, ultimately deciding to take Xing Mu with him before going to the Nine Realms Tower to break through his Realm.

After all, that woman with a hole in her head knew many secrets. If the Nine Realms Tower had other taboos that he accidentally triggered, it would be bad luck.

Ever since he last used the Zhu Xian Style.

Ye Xiu was very concerned about matters of Karma and did not want to fail unexpectedly.

His Qi sensation erupted.

It instantly covered a hundred miles of the border, and he soon sensed Xing Mu's familiar aura.

"This woman from the ancient recovery certainly knows how to enjoy life," Ye Xiu remarked with a strange expression. He complained under his breath and immediately flew toward a mountain Peak at the border.

Xingluo Mountain.

Xing Mu, who was watering flowers, suddenly froze. She looked at Ye Xiu descending from the clouds with slight surprise.

"Hey, Xiao Ye, weren't you off supporting other cities? Why are you back already?"

"You've actually reached the Mingdao Realm?"

Ye Xiu looked at Xing Mu, speechless.

His own cultivation could be said to have risen like a rocket, yet this woman's cultivation speed was actually faster than his.

"What's so strange about it? It's just that you're too weak. Why are you still in the God-One Realm? Let me tell you, lately the old man has been constantly searching for your whereabouts. It's so annoying. Do you want to go hide somewhere?"

"The Old City Lord? I should go see him."

"Tsk... better not. That old man is constantly muttering mystical nonsense. If you get too close, nothing good will happen for sure."

"Anyway, I have something to discuss with you."

"What for? Do you want this princess to teach you a few moves? I could, but I want to go play in the city for a couple of days. Going there with the old man last time was boring to death."

"Do you always talk this much..."

Ye Xiu was somewhat speechless. Had this ancient human become a chatterbox after sleeping through endless ages?

Xing Mu rolled her eyes at Ye Xiu and gave a light hmph.

"This princess is only like this because I'm familiar with you. When we rebuild the Imperial Court order in the future, you can take your pick of these myriad Realms. You have no idea—when I mentioned this, that group of your underlings immediately pledged their loyalty to me."

"Are the God-Slaying Guards really that classless..."

Ye Xiu's face darkened. During the time he was away, it seemed the six God-Slaying Guards had been won over by Xing Mu.

"Classless? Tsk... only you don't understand the glory of the Human Race. In the era of the Ancient Imperial Court, the Human Race was the most noble race in the heavens. Those so-called celestial royal races were nothing more than a dish on a dinner plate. Now, it's the other way around..."

Xing Mu continued watering the flowers in the pots, her beautiful face full of disdain.
