Longevity: Starting from Refining Gu-Chapter 469 - 269: Rewards after Proclaiming Kingship

As Chen Qing looked at the Six Dao Ghosts in his hand, he began to ponder how to seal the Six Dao Lords.

The Six Dao Dharma, at this point, did not hold much significance for him.

Even if used in battle, it was merely an embellishment.

Instead, it could serve as a reward, granted to the generals under his command or to Xuanping, allowing them to govern parts of life and death.

Half a month gradually passed, and Chen Qing slowly became familiar with the existence of the Six Dao Ghosts, initially mastering the surging power.

As for the other abilities, further exploration and familiarity were needed.

After combining authority and power, all his abilities and divine skills underwent a new transformation, requiring a reacquainted start.

Three months later, Chen Qing finally pushed open the palace doors.

The door’s opening startled Yu Qingshuang, who was dozing off at the entrance, "Sister, thank you for your hard work."

Yu Qingshuang didn’t mind too much and simply smiled brightly, "It’s nothing, after all, I can’t leave you now."

At the foot of the palace stairs, Zuo Chuan rose, half-kneeling on the ground, "Greetings, Your Highness!"

Chen Qing strolled down, "Are all the generals and representatives from the Great Sect still here?"

Zuo Chuan nodded, "They’re all waiting for Your Highness’ awakening and to issue the Royal Decree."

Chen Qing pondered for a moment, "Issue an order for Wushang, Xuan Mang, Xuan Cuo, Su Yi, Zhang Can, Shen Changye, Lu Shenglong, Qing Ran, Sisi, Ting Yun, Ao Huanxiu, and Nie Fei to come see me."

An hour later, by the White Bone River, the generals found Chen Qing.

Ting Yun and Ao Huanxiu, upon seeing everyone, realized these were Chen Qing’s trusted aides, and their participation in this meeting indicated they, too, had been incorporated under Chen Qing’s command.

Chen Qing sat on a large chair carved with a White Tiger, glanced at the diverse expressions of the crowd, and said, "Now that the Death Realm has been stabilized, we need to consider two matters."

"First, how to consolidate my rule in the Death Realm."

"Second, how to establish a kingdom in the mortal world."

"You all are my backbone ministers, having fought alongside me tirelessly, and are inseparable from me."

Hearing this, Ting Yun and Ao Huanxiu were moved.

Chen Qing continued, "We share honor and loss together."

"With my current authority, I can seal six Power Gu, making them Six Dao Lords, comparable to the King Gu in existence."

"Once I achieve the position of Daoist Lord, these Six Dao Lords will possess powerful Gu comparable to the fifth tier of kingly prowess."

"Meanwhile, I can also control the white-bone skeletons of this Death Realm."

"Now, you all, share your thoughts."

The crowd looked at each other, feeling somewhat restrained.

Hearing this, Ting Yun felt a bit uneasy, as he became aware of secrets he shouldn’t have known.

These secrets were not meant for him!

Only Su Yi and Yan Sisi seemed thoughtful, so Chen Qing said, "Regarding the big picture, managing the world, Su Yi, you are the most adept—let’s hear your ideas."

Su Yi promptly stepped forward and said, "Regarding Your Highness’ concerns, the Commandery Princess Sisi and I have already discussed and formed some preliminary opinions, and we seek Your Highness’ approval."

Chen Qing was slightly puzzled, suddenly recalling that he was now a king, and Yan Sisi, as his adoptive sister, was already a Commandery Princess.

"Hmm, let’s hear them."

Su Yi said, "In the Death Realm, not knowing Your Highness’ current authority, the Commandery Princess and I considered a centralized power approach, gathering all the realm’s cultivators in Quantai City, controlled by Death Realm official positions."

"Allowing them to perform tasks to earn achievements, which can be exchanged for Merit Points."

"However, since Your Highness mentioned the capability to control these white-bone skeletons, I have a new idea."

"Could Your Highness create a type of token imbued with your aura to intimidate the white-bone skeletons?"

Chen Qing pondered for a moment and responded, "That wouldn’t be difficult."

Su Yi smiled, "In that case, it’s simple." freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"Your Highness only needs to ensure these white-bone skeletons are spread throughout the Death Realm and order them to indiscriminately attack all life!"

"In doing so, the Death Realm becomes invincible, and no one can threaten Your Highness’ rule!"

Chen Qing’s eyes sparkled, and the other generals were slightly surprised.

"You’re suggesting that in the Death Realm, one must possess our token to move freely, and those without it would be attacked en masse?"

"It’s quite a good strategy!"

This strategy might seem harsh, but it completely eliminated the risk of rebellion from Death Realm cultivators.

Without Chen Qing’s protection, other cultivators would face the relentless, endless attacks of white-bone skeletons, making it difficult to make any progress!

Su Yi continued, "The aura within the token can be managed by officials in Quantai City, and everyone must report to the city annually to renew Your Highness’ aura."

"If any issues arise, investigate immediately and render their token invalid."

"Thus, no one will be able to cause disorder."

"Moreover, under such circumstances, we can eliminate the possibility of external sect cultivators exceeding our control."

"If they diverge from our Death Realm official system, they must confront the endless assault of white-bone skeletons!"

Chen Qing asked, "Will completely cutting off the path of cultivation for the world incite a Loose Cultivator revolt?"

Su Yi replied, "This matter has been discussed with the Commandery Princess—we’ve just established Wen Country, and we don’t have many citizens yet. We can leave the doors wide open, recruiting all Loose Cultivators and providing them a pathway to progression in cultivation."

"Every three years, we’ll hold a Foundation Establishment Conference to select the best among them, granting them qualifications to enter the Death Realm while expanding the number of cultivator families and sects in our Wen Country."
