The Peerless Emperor

Southern Dipper Heaven, Shengling Realm.

The location of this realm is right behind the Danmu Realm, on the other side of Ming Chun Hall.

The Shengling Realm has a notable feature: among the thirty-six realms of Southern Dipper Heaven, it occupies the most extensive territory.

However, this realm is also situated at the very center of the thirty-six realms.

In the past, Shengling Realm was indeed the center of Southern Dipper Heaven, but now it has declined, with the lowest concentration of Spiritual Energy among the thirty-six realms.

The reason is that in the past, when the Netherworld Clan invaded, the largest battlefield of Southern Dipper Heaven erupted in this very place.

That protracted carnage broke out in Shengling Realm, shattering countless stars into debris, drifting in this boundary.

Shengling Realm became the least valuable place among the thirty-six realms, due to the war, with sparse Spiritual Energy and few stars.

However, the beings in this realm are numerous, with a vast population, and the most diverse and complex races among the thirty-six realms.

Exaggeratedly, on one star, there may be a situation where over a hundred thousand forces coexist.

Chaos is the hallmark of this realm.

Moreover, this realm often experiences disputes, and the strange thing is that there is little to no deadly combat, with problems frequently resolved through dueling.

Few deaths, many injuries, so pills sell well naturally.

Ming Chun Hall extracted an unimaginable amount of wealth from this realm.

But when Ming Chun Hall preserved its strength and withdrew, passing through this realm, it also swept up a bloody storm, burning, killing, and plundering wherever it went, seizing countless resources.

Therefore, the power holders in Shengling Realm, only some of the larger forces saw Lin Qian, attended banquets and hospitality, not because he was being selective.

The reality is Shengling Realm has too many powers; if all the leaders of these forces were invited to the main hall of the imperial palace in New Qin City on Soul Martial Star, there simply wouldn't be enough space.

Among the stars of Shengling Realm, all forces have been integrated, swearing an oath to the heart demon, to abide by the empire's laws and regulations.

After surrendering to the Huaxia Empire, five full years have passed, during which time Shengling Realm has undergone tremendous changes.

The chaos of Shengling Realm, the leaders of the surrendered forces heard Lin Qian's demand to obey the empire's laws and complained, saying, "There are too many races and people; it's very complicated—how can it be so easy?"

But when they saw, stationed on each star, the hundreds of thousands of Enlightenment Realm, and the millions of Transparent Realm Imperial Army and Emperor Demon Army, and countless Earth Realm, not even knowing how many Star Control Realm, they all shut their mouths.

One star, with such garrison power, yet facing the great armies of Ming Chun Hall, Flowing Gold Clan, and Hude Clan.

The leaders of these surrendered forces in Shengling Realm trembled all over, both scared and excited.

Scared because they were relieved to have chosen surrender rather than clashing with this terrifying force.

Excited because the force they chose to surrender to was truly formidable.

What also intrigued them were the numerous contents described on the Soul Vision Machine.

The Huaxia Broadcast, its duration had increased threefold, and it began to segment the reporting content, focusing on different parts on different days.

Because the empire's territory continued expanding.

When the style of the Huaxia Empire, wild and swift, stormed into their Shengling Realm, they realized, could their past days even be called 'living days'?

Thinking back, what kind of life did they have?

For the sake of various forces' territorial and resource battles, they kept gambling and fighting, then went back to cultivate and nourish themselves, took pills, and cultivated, then gambled and fought for territory and resources.

Everyone in Shengling Realm wasn't without injuries?

Because the stars in Shengling Realm were few, yet the population was immense, leading most to live cramped together, slightly better off only by those with higher cultivation.

Being cramped together, how good could the environment be?

But now? No need to fight for territory, no need to live crowded together.

Because from Huaxia Empire's Heavenly Art Department, at an astonishing pace, after demolishing their shabby houses, new residences were constructed.

The multi-storey buildings, each over a hundred stories tall, rose from the ground, initially called mountain-buildings and elongated-buildings by the people of Shengling Realm.

Only later did they learn these were called tower-style high-rise residences, a name that sounded strange to them, but there was no denying that living there was much more comfortable than before.

Moreover, many leaders of the forces thought, so this is how houses can be built.

In a previous life, such hundred-story residences weren't so easily achievable, but with three types of civilizations colliding, what are hundred-story residences?

The so-called issue of water pressure and water usage didn't need consideration at all; the arrays within the buildings naturally drew moisture to be used as water, and contained Spiritual Energy.

The problem of getting upstairs was also simple, even without a flying license from the Huaxia Empire, in the residential area, Soul Martial Artists could fly directly up.

If they were too lazy to fly, arrays could condense levitation to lift you up.

The combination of past-life ideas and the world's power created a cultivation-tech civilization that transformed life.

Every life in Shengling Realm was amazed that they could own such a large living space, and within it, a Spirit Gathering Array condensed luxuriously.

And the price they had to pay was not high, although these residences were only borrowed by the empire, to be repaid by work.

But everyone was confident that after a period, this house would truly belong to them.

Not having to worry about territory, let alone resources.

As long as they worked hard to improve themselves and worked diligently, anything they wanted could be exchanged with the empire.

And the variety was comprehensive, everything available.

Even those leaders of the forces found that Dao Grade Cultivation Techniques, even Immortal Item Cultivation Techniques, could be exchanged.

Each, like crazy, retrieved from their private stash any precious items they couldn't use themselves, handed them all over to the empire, exchanged into Contribution Points, and then exchanged for the meticulous cultivation techniques or Soul Devices they needed.

Moreover, the leaders of the first forces to decide to surrender, due to their good leading role, received an additional reward from Lin Qian after exchanging for Dao Grade Cultivation Techniques, a Dao Grade Soul Weapon along with a full-body care potion set.

At that time, this member of the Giant Horned Clan was moved to tears, stirring envy and jealousy among many leaders of the forces.

But the beings of Shengling Realm were also aware that five years had passed, and Ming Chun Hall was about to make a comeback.

This was also what they feared the most, worried that war would rage and break the new life they had finally obtained.

Many Soul Martial Artists of Shengling Realm volunteered to join the army and become part of the Huaxia Empire's force.

They were willing to devote their own strength and lives to leave a better life for their wives and children.

But the Huaxia Empire refused their request.

"By the order of His Majesty, your current task is to improve your overall quality, transform the environment of Shengling Realm, and enhance your star's grade."

"The matter of slaughtering the rebellious Ming Chun Hall, Flowing Gold Clan, and Hude Clan is not your concern."

"For specific battle situations, just follow the live broadcast programs on the Soul Vision Machine."

Before the military departments of each place in Shengling Realm, the gathered people exchanged looks, wondering if they had heard wrong.

This was a prolonged war between great forces being broadcasted—could it be so casual, wasn't it underestimating Ming Chun Hall and the others too much?

And they weren't mistaken; now Lin Qian indeed did not take Ming Chun Hall and others seriously.
