Chapter 706 - 695: Proclaiming Himself Emperor
Ding Ling thrust his sword forward.
Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root!
As this sword was thrust out, the sky was filled with magnificent and fierce Sword Qi!
Densely packed, limitless and boundless!
In an instant, they completely engulfed the Great Demon God, Xiaao Jingtian.
This was a major move.
Extremely consuming of True Qi.
In a state of ninety-fold increase, Ding Ling would not easily use it, but now that he did, he instantly entirely covered the Great Demon God.
Crackle! Pop!
"Ah!"
The body of the Great Demon God suffered a brutal piercing and dismemberment. He felt an unprecedented surge of pain direct to his mind, suffering such agony like never before, he couldn’t help but feel panic, astonishment, fear, scream, and roar!
"Drizzling Frozen Rain!"
The Great Demon God looked at Ding Ling with a face full of hatred, suddenly roaring in anger:
"Go to hell!"
He had a premonition.
This time, he was doomed!
Ding Ling was too powerful.
Even though he had cultivated the Chaotic Heaven Four Extremities to the Realm of Perfection, at the night of the full moon, his power reached its peak, achieving an unbelievable Realm of Heaven and Earth!
Yet he was still being crushed by Ding Ling.
It’s imaginable if it were daytime when his power would leak, he would certainly be easily slain by Ding Ling!
Holding onto the belief of either success or death, the Great Demon God activated his entire power, continuously releasing two ultimate techniques.
"Overlord Thunder Shock!"
First, the move Drizzling Frozen Rain, under the moonlight, gathered Spiritual Vitality, transforming into rain that seemed able to freeze everything!
Following the Frozen Rain was Overlord Thunder Shock, darting through the gentle rain like lightning striking down towards Ding Ling’s head.
Yet it was futile.
Ding Ling merely activated the Profound Yin Sword Armor!
All attacks were easily blocked outside, the Great Demon God couldn’t believe it, he had reached the peak of the mortal realm, even his father he wasn’t afraid of, yet now he couldn’t even break Ding Ling’s defense.
"This is impossible!"
Boom!
Ding Ling raised his eyebrows and swung the Emperor’s Sword again!
Celestial Destiny Sword Dao!
Who Carries Out the King’s Will!
A brilliant Sword Qi capable of sweeping through the mortal realm quickly intermingled with the fierce Vigorous Qi of Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root. In a flash, it pierced through space and shot into the Great Demon God’s neck.
The Great Demon God flipped over to the ground, gasping heavily, as if wanting to say something, but the ensuing fierce Sword Qi immediately turned him into a sieve.
His heart was particularly targeted and directly shattered.
[Obtained D-level Achievement Medal: Intimidated Great Demon God Xiaao Jingtian.]
[Note: The Great Demon God is one of the behind-the-scenes leaders pushing the Thousand-Year Tribulation, his power unparalleled, enough to overlook the mortal realm! He ventured into the Central Plains this time, thinking he could easily crush all forces and completely plunge the Central Plains into blood and fire. He even specifically staged to divert Xiaao Sanxiaao. Unexpectedly, he still failed in the end and was easily killed just by you.]
He died unwillingly! Unbelieving that there could be such an extraordinary power as yours in this world!
Indeed, he died.
Ding landed on the ground, grabbing the Great Demon God in mid-air, activating Eternal Youth Technique and Ten Thousand Dao Forest, the two Divine Skills.
Whirr!
The Great Demon God’s True Qi poured into Ding Ling’s Dantian.
Then rapidly refined by the two Divine Skills into True Water.
[Inner Strength Value +920]
In just a moment, three drops of True Water appeared in the Dantian.
[True Power Value: 84 points]
"The Great Demon God is much stronger than I imagined."
One should know that after Ding Ling breakthroughs again.
The quality of True Qi at the Shattering Level is higher.
The conversion efficiency has once again decreased.
Ordinary expert’s True Qi can no longer bring any benefit to him.
But the Great Demon God provided a full 920 points of Inner Strength Value.
Besides the extremely pure True Qi generated by the Secret Manual the Great Demon God cultivated, it’s also related to it being night.
On this night, the four Primordial Qi in the Great Demon God’s body, which are wind, thunder, fire, and rain, are at their fullest!
At this time, absorbing and refining his True Qi naturally yields maximum feedback value.
"Very good."
Ding Ling was very satisfied, casually throwing away the Great Demon God’s corpse, stepping into the void, instantly covering a thousand zhang distance, arriving outside Unrivaled City in a few breaths, landing in front of Guan Yu and others.
"Pay respect to Venerable Lord!"
Duann Lang, Shangguan Jinhong, and others immediately bowed and performed the grand ceremony.
Zhao Min, Xie Xun, Guan Yu, and others also followed suit in salute.
After Ding Ling signaled the exemption from ceremony, Guan Yu, Duann Lang, and others finally stood up.
Duann Lang asked about the results of the battle excitedly.
Ding Ling casually replied, then instructed Duann Lang and others to prepare the Great Army overnight, for he was going to personally invade Japan and other regions.
Duann Lang, Shangguan Jinhong felt both ashamed and excited.
To expand the territories and become the founding fathers!
This is something they look forward to and feel honored by!
...
This night.
At Zhao Min’s request.
Ding Ling used Longevity Venerable Qi to heal the severely injured Zhang Wuji and others.
Zhao Min, Zhang Wuji, and the group were naturally overwhelmed with gratitude.
The next day.
Ding Ling went to Luoyang.
Preparing to officially ascend the throne to become emperor.
In the following days.
People from the World Association and Unrivaled City also arrived one after another in Luoyang.
Divine Calculator, Great Divine Official, Nie Feng, Youruo, Duann Lang, Zhao Min, Guan Yu, Lü Bu, Zhang Wuji, Mingyue, and others led groups of people of ability to the Luoyang Imperial Capital, paying respect to Ding Ling, proclaiming long live the emperor.
...
Half a month later.
Ding Ling successfully established Jian Country.
Ensey Guan Yu, Lü Bu, Nie Feng, Duann Lang as generals,
Divine Calculator as Prime Minister, Great Divine Official as Minister of War, Zhao Min as Minister of Revenue, Mingyue as Imperial Guard Commander...
The rest were assigned various responsibilities.
Ding Ling trusted people without doubt, not using doubted people.
As long as one was a person of ability.
He appointed them regardless of gender.
In his Great Ming Dynasty, only character, Martial Arts, and intelligence were considered, not gender!
As long as they were extraordinary.
Women could also hold high positions!
...
And with Ding Ling’s successful founding of the nation.
The officials were in place one by one.
The whole dynasty manifested extremely fearsome cohesion and tension!
Any order or task given by Ding Ling could be swiftly accomplished through group efforts.
One must know that the officials on Ding Ling’s court.
Without exception!
Are all martial arts masters!
Non-martial arts officials, unless extremely excellent, would only be assigned to local positions!
Because this generation of Ding Ling’s officials must all be exceptionally strong, as they would face assassination threats from worldwide assassins and must always be ready to travel to other countries.
On this day.
Ding Ling set foot in Japan, wiping out all major forces in Japan in less than a day.
Jue Wushen, Japanese Emperor, and other powerful figures were easily killed, their True Qi fully absorbed.
[Inner Strength Value +60]
[Inner Strength Value +70]
As Ding Ling grew stronger.
Now absorbing Innate Experts can no longer provide any Inner Strength Value benefits to him.
Only experts above Grandmaster level can provide benefits.
Naturally, even Grandmaster level experts, their True Qi can barely provide considerable benefits to Ding Ling.
