78: If I live forever, my country will be eternal.

The room was filled with brilliant light.

With three crisp sound effects,

three Diamond Treasure Chests were opened consecutively.

A series of prompts appeared before Qin Yang's eyes.

[You opened a Level 30 Diamond Treasure Chest...]

[Accessory Blueprint]: goddess amulet (Orange Grade).

[Weapon]: Star Sword (Purple Grade).

[Equipment]: Star Envoy Set (Purple Grade).

[Item]: Skill Awakening Scroll * 3.

[Item]: Occupying Banner.

[Skill Book]: Fate Contract.

[Food]: Special All-Element Resistance Fruit.

[Food]: Special All-Element Enhancement Fruit.

[Crystal Coin]: 80 Million.

"Orange-grade equipment!"

A purple light filled Qin Yang's vision.

Among them, a wisp of orange light was particularly dazzling.

Obtaining purple-grade equipment from a Diamond Treasure Chest was a basic operation.

But to get orange-grade equipment, that Luck was a bit too good.

Even if it was just a blueprint, it was still a treasure that would make various factions envious.

Moreover, for Qin Yang, orange-grade equipment was equivalent to red-grade.

This Rank was something that people without a certain status in the Jiuzhou Federation couldn't even see.

Qin Yang opened the equipment description.

[Equipment]: goddess amulet.

[Quality]: Orange Grade.

[Part]: Necklace.

[Rank]: Level 30.

[Required Materials]: Tears of Purity, glowcrystal.

[Guaranteed Attribute]: Mental Energy.

[Guaranteed Affixes]: Holy Light Blessing, Eye of the Gods.

"As expected of orange-grade equipment, I've never even heard of the Materials it requires."

Qin Yang pouted, feeling a bit troubled.

But after seeing the necklace's affixes, he decided it was still necessary to craft this piece of equipment.

Eye of the Gods.

This was a skill, and Qin Yang had a deep impression of it.

During the final battle of the Summoning Battlefield, the Holy Light Bishop had used the Eye of the Gods once.

When that pair of eyes opened above the firmament, Qin Yang felt a hint of pressure.

It was an experience of being overlooked and watched by a higher-dimensional life form.

If not for possessing the Supreme Dragon Body,

Qin Yang guessed that he would definitely be suppressed.

"This skill radiates the power of a God, it's necessary to study it."

Qin Yang thought.

In this Summoning Battlefield, he had already come into contact with Gods.

Once was facing the Eye of the Gods, and another was liberating the xuanyuan sword.

After two encounters, he had a premonition.

The power of the Supreme Emperor, or the Ninetynine Human Emperor, had a certain conflict with this world.

If he continued to develop, he would inevitably deal with higher-dimensional existences.

Therefore.

Before that, it was necessary to understand the so-called Gods.

Moreover, Qin Yang also really wanted to see.

What the goddess amulet would become after being transformed by Emperors Demeanor.

Whose eyes would the Eye of the Gods turn into?

Qin Yang, filled with anticipation, continued to tally his gains.

Aside from the accessories,

this time, weapons and a set of equipment were also obtained.

They were all purple-grade finished products, requiring no collection of Materials.

Considering the drop rate of Diamond Treasure Chests, his Luck wasn't bad.

With one transformation using Emperors Demeanor, he would have a full set of orange-grade equipment.

Level 30, a full set of orange-grade equipment.

In the 500-year history of the Professional era, this was incredibly explosive.

However.

At this moment, Qin Yang had no intention of checking the equipment's attributes.

Among the rewards, he saw an item that was even more explosive than orange-grade or even red-grade equipment.

Occupying Banner.

Seeing these four words,

Qin Yang felt his scalp tingle!

A strong premonition surged over him.

"Has it finally come?"

Qin Yang's lips curved into a smile, he closed his phone's camera, and deleted the previous videos one by one.

The appearance of the Occupying Banner meant no more pleasant life.

Instead, it meant a life of rebellion!

[Item]: Occupying Banner.

[Quality]: Purple Grade.

[Description]: Using this item can transform a medium-sized Secret Realm into an exclusive Secret Realm. If the Secret Realm has a Rank limit, it cannot exceed Level 30.

[Note]: If the Secret Realm already has a manager, the manager's consent is required for occupation; of course, you can also kill the opponent.

An exclusive Secret Realm, as the name suggests.

Is a Secret Realm completely controlled by Professionals.

In an exclusive Secret Realm, the manager is a God.

Exclusive Secret Realms have only two uses.

One is to let Professionals level up within it and collect fees.

The other is to clear land and establish a territory within it.

The former is a money printer, the latter is a money pit.

Moreover.

After the establishment of the Jiuzhou Federation, individual development of Secret Realms was a serious crime.

Exclusive Secret Realms developed during the War era were also subject to supervision.

According to federal law.

Qin Yang's use of the "Occupying Banner" was supposed to be surrendered.

However.

The laws of this world could only restrain the weak.

As the Supreme Emperor, Qin Yang had his own rules.

"A medium-sized Secret Realm is very large, about the size of a Hongwu City."

"With the Qin Family's financial resources, establishing a territory is absolutely no problem."

"Grabbing some strong men and confining them to the Secret Realm for development, there's no fear of anyone leaking information."

"It's just that unknown Secret Realms are rare, where should I go to scout for a territory?"

Qin Yang thought, and suddenly a flash of inspiration struck him!

Didn't he already have a ready-made Secret Realm?

Thinking of this, Qin Yang said, "Yun Yao."

"Yun Yao is here~"

A phantom of a young girl appeared in the room.

The deer-eared demi-human with antlers knelt before Qin Yang, saluting, "Long live, Your Majesty."

"Rise."

Qin Yang nodded with satisfaction.

He hadn't taught Yun Yao these courtesies.

But Yun Yao had learned a lot from the Imperial Guards.

Qin Yang asked Yun Yao, "Your Mental Energy Domain also belongs to an exclusive Secret Realm, right? I remember that the stronger the Mental Energy, the larger the Domain area. Is that correct?"

Yun Yao nodded obediently, saying, "Yes, Your Majesty, as long as my Mental Energy is high enough, my Mental Energy Domain is infinite!"

Then, she blinked and said, "Your Majesty, are you going to help me improve my Mental Energy?"

Qin Yang shook his head and said, "I want to use the Occupying Banner to occupy your Mental Energy Domain."

Yun Yao: "Uh..."

Qin Yang's gaze sharpened: "Unwilling?"

Yun Yao was startled, then hurriedly knelt down: "Your Majesty, the Mental Energy Domain is my innate ability. If you occupy it, I will lose this ability. Yun Yao is not unwilling to part with the ability..."

At this point, Yun Yao lowered her head: "It's just... if Yun Yao loses her ability, can she still stay by Your Majesty's side?"

"So that's what you're worried about."

Qin Yang smiled inwardly.

Indeed, the Mental Energy Domain was built within Yun Yao's mind.

After he occupied it, the Domain would naturally belong to his mind, and Yun Yao would lose this innate ability.

Yun Yao was just a special ghost.

Unable to fight, unable to assist.

Without the Mental Energy Domain, she was indeed useless.

However.

She hadn't realized yet.

How important what she offered was to Qin Yang.

Was that the Mental Energy Domain?

No.

That was the Land of the Dragon's Rise, the territory of a Divine Kingdom!

Just for this merit of following the Dragon, Yun Yao was enough to be ennobled as a marquis, with hereditary succession.

Qin Yang waved his hand and said, "No need to worry, I will not abandon meritorious officials. Open your Domain."

Hearing Qin Yang's words, Yun Yao relaxed and immediately opened a swirling portal in the room.

Qin Yang did not enter, but activated the Occupying Banner in front of this exclusive Secret Realm.

[Occupy Secret Realm]: Mental Energy Domain.

[Secret Realm Manager]: Yun Yao.

[Manager's Attitude]: Agrees to occupy.

[Occupy now?]

"Yes."

Qin Yang's mind stirred.

Immediately, golden ripples flashed in the swirling vortex before his eyes.

About a minute later, Qin Yang saw the prompt.

[Occupation complete!]

[You have gained the innate skill, Mental Energy Domain.]

[You can visualize a space with your mind and enter it at any time. In this space, you are the absolute Dominator. The area of the space will increase as your Mental Energy improves.]

"An infinitely large Domain, enough to establish a country, right?"

"And this nation exists within my mind."

"As long as I am, the nation is. As long as I am eternal, the nation is eternal."

Qin Yang's mood was somewhat excited.

And at this moment, an even more exciting prompt appeared.

[Facing your Land of the Dragon's Rise, you choose...]

[Benevolent Ruler]: Build the Star Gazing Platform. I want to discern the Luck of the world and establish an Imperial Dynasty in this Otherworld! (Reward: Star Gazing Platform)

[Tyrant]: Build the Bronze Sparrow Terrace. I want to gather all the beauties in the world and have many children and blessings in this Otherworld! (Reward: Bronze Sparrow Terrace.)

[Autocrat]: Build the Troop Deployment Platform. I want to summon famous generals from ancient times and conquer the world in this Otherworld! (Reward: Troop Deployment Platform.)

...Retired Emperors: The Imperial Son drank a bit today, he's being a Tyrant...
