170: Chapter 169 Appointment

He was still a few short of the amount needed to activate transcendental characteristics. It was estimated that the number of transcendent crystals used by each race differed, but at least he needed to save up another batch.

It was worth mentioning that in Gu Han's bountiful divine kingdom, in less than a few decades, various races successively welcomed a blowout period of transcendental Breakthroughs.

People in the Yanhuo Clan, Elf Race, Goblin Race, Dwarf Race, Merfolk, and Lizardman Race had all successively broken through to become transcendental.

Among them, the Yanhuo Clan and Elf Race unexpectedly activated their racial transcendental characteristics.

Yanhuo Clan [Love-Hate Interaction]: They hate flames, use flames, and accept flames. Flames engulf the body, with a Love-Hate Interaction endlessly.

Gu Han hovered mid-air, looking at the several Yanhuo Clan Transcendental Believers on the open space below.

Some of them had raging fires burning all over their bodies. Looking closely, the flames on some bodies were not burning disorderly, but after being controlled, they gathered on their heads.

It was as if their hair turned into flames burning continuously. Coupled with their crimson skin, they looked like a spirit-formed red-skinned candle.

"Quite good, this is very suitable for learning magic or fire-type Cultivation Techniques," Gu Han touched his chin.

Since they had already become transcendental, Gu Han directly arranged for the entire Yanhuo Clan to migrate and officially enter the Volcanic Zone to live. The high temperature and abundant flame power there were very beneficial for their cultivation.

Receiving the divine oracle, the Yanhuo Clan Chief trembled all over with excitement, bringing the whole clan's old and young to kowtow like pounding garlic at the foot of the volcano.

They obviously learned that routine from the Dwarf Race, repeating over and over in their mouths: "The Divine Master's kindness can never be repaid!"

As for the Elf Race's transcendental characteristic—[Magical Affinity]. Magic? Wasn't it something they were born with?

This made Ier, the outsider, extremely envious, and he finally understood at this moment how regrettable it was, as Qu Nimade had said back then, not to be born in this kingdom.

Even in his former hometown, when Elf Race members reached rank-eight transcendental, this group still failed to activate transcendental characteristics.

And those Q-version little spirits composed of pure magic elements became able to learn instantly upon trying. To them, magic was as simple as breathing; given time to grow, this was definitely a terrifying mage legion.

Watching the divine kingdom flourish, Gu Han directly opened the trading platform and began to increase investment.

He directly bought an S-rank divine building [Scripture Pavilion].

This thing was on the same level as the law transmission pagoda, and it contained various large and small Cultivation Techniques and spells.

He placed the [Scripture Pavilion] near the mushroom garden in the core area to facilitate the Spirit Root Mushroom People and Ant-man Race to study nearby.

With the building completed, the next step was to find a reliable administrator for appointment. The first candidate that popped into Gu Han's mind was Qu Nimade.

Compared to wearing armor when he was young in the past, Qu Nimade had now changed into scholar-military sleeves, and his broken greatsword had also been replaced with a long sword. His aura was restrained all over, and he even grew a long beard, changing quite a bit.

If not for the fact that he and Ier still went to watch the Reproduction scene from time to time, Gu Han would have thought he had suffered a Possession.

Gu Han had long cancelled his Reproduction package, and his left leg had also grown back. It was precisely because Gu Han bought him a divine master skill service of [Severed Limb Rebirth].

Only after burning his Origin to fight Ier that time, he did indeed age a lot all at once. However, once that batch of blood jade mushrooms matured, it should be able to make up for some of it for him.

Qu Nimade was a rare talent. Not only was his Body Refining path at the rank-four transcendental Peak, but he also didn't fall behind on the path of immortal cultivation, actually touching the threshold of the Qi Early Stage, which translated to rank-four transcendental immortal cultivation.

Checking his logs, Gu Han found out.

Ever since Gu Han withdrew the brain storage, the Titan Race's intelligence gradually recovered, no longer in that muddle-headed state of the past.

With a brain, there was aesthetic appreciation and comparison.

The female Titan werewolf that Qu Nimade liked dumped him because she found him too short, and hooked up with another male Titan werewolf.

Since then, he became disheartened, retreated from the Mortal World, and concentrated on practicing the Dao, leading to his current dual-path cultivation, both reaching the rank-four Peak.

After arranging the Scripture Pavilion, Gu Han didn't stop and continued to sweep goods on the trading platform.

On the path of immortal cultivation, having only Cultivation Techniques was still lacking; Medicinal Pills were definitely also of utmost importance.

The prices of Medicinal Pills outside were hyped up ridiculously, and the quantity simply couldn't supply such a huge divine kingdom of his.

Relying on oneself ensures ample food and clothing.

Gu Han directly snapped up an S-rank [Alchemy Pagoda].

This pagoda didn't just have Medicinal Pills; it came with detailed teaching procedures, Alchemy formulas, and a comprehensive pharmacology guide inside.

As for the person in charge of the Alchemy Pagoda, Gu Han directly arranged Zhangsheng to take it.

After all, having secretly eaten various divine plants, there should be no one in the divine kingdom more authoritative than it regarding medicinal properties.

Entrusting the matter of Alchemy to it could also be considered matching its specialty.

Placing the [Alchemy Pagoda] near the medicine garden, where various divine plants and the Medicine Pouch True Monarch hybridized by mushroom-pouch people gathered, it was just right to obtain materials locally.

Recalling that there were also Alchemists among the snake-man prisoners of war before, although they refined blood pills, they still belonged to talents, which made Gu Han decide to screen some talented individuals from various races to learn Alchemy.

With the expansion of the divine kingdom's area, the resources laid out by Gu Han became more and more abundant, and another large batch of new divine plants entered the divine kingdom.

Some bad signs also began to appear.

After being well-fed and warmly clothed, there were always a few lazybones in each race who muddled along waiting for death, lying flat in their nests all day waiting for resources.

Although enjoying blessings could also make them generate faith, Gu Han was not raising them to enjoy blessings.

After a few generations, their Physique would degenerate, and in the future if they needed to be used as talents, even their germplasm would not keep up.

A huge dharma idol manifested high in the sky of the divine kingdom, and Gu Han's voice, like rolling thunder, spread to every corner of the divine kingdom.

"Starting today, the young juniors of all races must go out for advanced studies! Skills such as magic, Body Refining, immortal cultivation, forging, and Alchemy are strictly forbidden from being wasted by staying in the nests!"

"Clan Chiefs of all races appoint clan soldiers to supervise each other, and reporting will be rewarded! Anyone who lies flat and slacks off, refusing to mend their ways despite repeated admonitions, will be banished without exception!"

Banishment meant directly killing them to make fertilizer or selling them in exchange for credit points. Such good-for-nothings couldn't even compare to wild chickens.

The ideological unification was also advancing steadily.

Among those conquered races, the older generation might still deeply believe in their original gods. Even if they surrendered on the surface, they secretly even taught the younger generation those old things behind the scenes.

Gu Han did not choose to start a massacre to purge them. Governing a divine kingdom was the same reason as governing a country; you could never stop them from saying or doing things behind the scenes.

Excessive brutality traded not faith, but fear.

Combining grace with power, doing more practical deeds, matching words with actions, and strengthening the education of ideological concepts. Once the divine kingdom's policies were good, and the racial strength and living standards went up, the believers would naturally remember the god's goodness.

Along with the unification of the divine kingdom's script, and the popularization of a large number of literary works and textbooks bearing the personal imprint of the Creator God among all races, the new generation of young people received the Creator God's grace from childhood.

The seeds of the new faith would take root and sprout in the hearts of the younger generation. The older generation's original gods would sooner or later be completely buried by time and even become a joke.
