"Now, the most crucial matter for our Heavenly Court is to ascertain the origin of this plague."
"All other affairs need not weigh heavily on our minds."
Hao Tian said in a solemn tone.
Changsheng Emperor Palace!
Atop the imperial throne.
"Great Emperor."
"The Heavenly Emperor has just sent word; the Heavenly Seal at the Lower Realm Kunlun Immortal Sect has shattered, indicating trouble."
"Moreover, my subordinates have attempted to contact Kunlun, but there has been no response."
A Heavenly Official from Changsheng Emperor Palace came respectfully to report to the Changsheng Great Emperor.
"The Eastern Continent is entirely under the control of our Heavenly Court, and the sects within are all bound by the Heavenly Seal of the court; the annihilation of a sect is beyond possibility."
"Send a team to investigate Kunlun. "
The Changsheng Great Emperor raised his head and spoke in a deep voice.
"Yes."
The Heavenly Official immediately accepted the order.
However, as he stepped away, he still showed some reluctance and said, "Great Emperor!"
"The Heavenly Emperor has already issued a decree permitting the Eastward transmission of Buddhist Law."
"This matter seems not to be in our favor."
"Does the Great Emperor not intend to prevent it?"
The Heavenly Official said seriously.
"This matter."
"The Heavenly Emperor has already discussed with us."
"And has obtained the consent of us, Gouchen, and Ziwei."
"Regarding our Heavenly Court's vital interests, Hao Tian would not make decisions without consultation." The Changsheng Great Emperor slowly opened his mouth.
"Why did the Great Emperor consent?" the Heavenly Official asked in confusion.
"The Eastward transmission of Buddhist Law is the cause of Heavenly Dao's great movement; even if one wishes to prevent it, it cannot be stopped, and furthermore, it will not affect the core of our Divine Continent."
"We merely allow its teachings in the Nan Zhanbu Continent, and there, it will depend on one's skills." The Changsheng Great Emperor laughed lightly, not taking it to heart.
"Great Emperor."
"Now that the Heavenly Dao is incomplete, the rules of heaven and earth are no longer like the days of the ancient Saints, why follow the old norms initially set by Saints?" The Heavenly Official still had some doubts.
"This is a game of strategy."
"You need not overly concern yourself; just follow what the Heavenly Emperor has instructed." The Changsheng Great Emperor shook his head, not wanting to say more.
...
Wucheng!
Today, the atmosphere within the grand hall was remarkably heavy.
The complete court of civil and military officials from the Qin Mortal World was present here.
"We, the ministers, pay homage to the Crown Prince."
Upon seeing Zhao Feng, whom they hadn't seen for over a century, all civil and military officials excitedly bowed to Zhao Feng.
"My courtiers."
"It has been many years since our last meeting."
"Now your strength has surpassed the worldly level."
Zhao Feng smiled faintly, his gaze sweeping through the hall, perceiving the cultivation aura of the civil and military officials.
"All is due to the First Emperor, Your Highness."
"We rely on the fortune of Qin to achieve our current cultivation."
The ministers shouted in unison.
"Feng'er."
"Now that I have brought the Hundred Officials, you need not manage the Immortal Realm alone."
"My courtiers."
"Establish an Academic Palace first, passing down the Way of the Martial Dao."
"Secondly."
"Bring all inhabitants within the territory of this Immortal Realm under Qin's dominion." Ying Zheng said solemnly.
"We accept the order."
