CHAPTER 284: CHAPTER 281: SWEEPING ACROSS THE SIX REALMS_1

The tragic end of Divine Emperor Fenghua swiftly reached the ears of Divine Emperor Leiting, instantly chilling him to the bone. An inexplicable sense of dread filled his heart.

"Ancestors, I, your undutiful descendant, have failed to protect our legacy. To preserve our bloodline, please forgive what your unworthy descendant is about to do..."

Inside the ancestral temple, Divine Emperor Leiting knelt on the ground, speaking these sorrowful words to the spirit tablets of his ancestors. He remained in the ancestral temple for a long time that day, saying many things.

After leaving the ancestral temple, Divine Emperor Leiting announced his abdication to the world. The entire territory of the Thunder Divine Court was to be merged into the Great Qin Divine Court.

On that day, the Fortune Dragon of the Thunder Divine Court wailed. It circled the imperial city thrice, its cries filled with endless sorrow, before its body gradually vanished, merging into the vast world. The Fortune accumulated by the Thunder Divine Court over a million years flowed eastward. Before long, not a trace of Fortune remained above its imperial city.

This marked the fall of a nation. Countless officials, soldiers, merchants, and commoners wept bitterly, kneeling for a long time in despair. Their nation was gone! The homeland where their families had lived for generations was lost!

"I have dedicated my life to the development of our nation," a scholar lamented in his study within the Prime Minister’s mansion. "Now that the nation is gone, what is the point of living?" He picked up a cup of poisoned wine from his desk and drank it in one gulp. His once ruddy complexion instantly turned ashen. In just a few breaths, his vitality became incredibly weak; he was about to descend to the Yellow Spring.

"The mountains and rivers of Thunder shall last forever; the mountains and rivers of Thunder shall endure eternally..." He lay back in his chair, positioned so he could see the map hanging on the opposite wall. His bright, spirited eyes shone brilliantly, showing no fear of death, only regret for his nation’s fall.

To live and die with the nation! This statesman of the Divine Court would forever be embraced by the Thunder Divine Court, never to part.

ROAR!

In the Imperial Capital of the Great Qin Divine Court, its Fortune Dragon tilted its head back and let out a long roar. It soared through the vast Sea of Fortune, its joyous cry echoing to every corner of the Great Qin’s territory. Countless commoners paused their work, watching as streams of Fortune flowed from the western sky, converging into the Sea of Fortune above the Imperial Capital.

The Fortune Dragon soared skyward, filled with boundless excitement. Opening its massive maw, it swallowed one-third of the inflowing Fortune. Its colossal body continued to expand, becoming comparable to the Fortune Dragon of an Ancient Court!

ROAR!

After consuming the Fortune, the Fortune Dragon did not return to the Sea of Fortune. Instead, it flew towards the distant reaches of the Great Qin’s territory, spreading successive blessings of Fortune everywhere.

The concentration of Spiritual Energy increased rapidly! Many ordinary feng shui lands were transformed into rare Grotto-Heavens and Blessed Lands! Even some disabled Martial Artists, bathed in the divine Fortune, had their severed limbs regenerated, becoming healthy once more!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM...

Countless Martial Artists in seclusion broke through their cultivation realms. Areas they previously didn’t understand, they comprehended in a flash of sudden enlightenment. Their cultivation speed increased even further, surpassing all previous rates.

Qin Wudao led his court officials out of the Imperial Hall. Looking up at the ever-expanding Sea of Fortune, a smile touched his lips. The ministers standing behind him also wore joyful expressions. Fortune doesn’t increase without reason. Even minor increases wouldn’t typically result in such widespread blessings of Fortune. There was only one possibility for such a phenomenon: a major victory on the front lines!

"Haha, it seems our four generals have achieved victory! The Great Qin’s territory has gained three more King-level Domains!" Qin Wudao laughed heartily, his mood extremely elated. On one hand, the Great Qin’s territory had expanded; on the other, he had received three system rewards.

"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for occupying the Langya Domain. Sign-in reward: ’Great Wall’. Use?"

"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for occupying the Fenghua Domain. Sign-in reward: Strategist Guo Jia. Summon?"

"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for occupying the Thunder Domain. Sign-in reward: one ’Thunder Origin’. Use?"

The system’s prompts echoed in Qin Wudao’s mind.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Felicitations, Your Majesty!" the officials hurriedly saluted, their voices filled with excitement. As subjects of the Great Qin Divine Court, the stronger the nation, the more they benefited. In particular, many veteran officials, who originally only possessed Cave Heaven Stage cultivation, had now broken through to the Saint Realm. This was something they wouldn’t have dared to even dream of before!

「On Langya Mountain」

Guan Yu, wielding his Azure Dragon Crescent Blade, looked serious as he gazed at the sand table in the center of the hall and issued an order in a loud voice, "Send the order to attack the Yanyang Domain!"

To the west of the Langya Domain, over a dozen smaller factions occupied three ordinary Domains, forming an intermediary zone. Beyond these three Domains lay an alliance led by the Vast Sea Ancient Court. This alliance consisted of twelve King-level factions and over forty ordinary factions, entrenched in the eastern part of the Eastern Continent. The Yanyang Domain was his target for conquest.

"Yes, General!" the assembled generals rose and clasped their fists in salute.

「In the former imperial capital of the Fenghua Divine Court」

Ma Chao stood before a map and coldly issued an order, "Give the order! Our army is to sweep across the surrounding smaller factions and occupy the Suimo Domain at the fastest possible speed!" His jet-black hair cascaded over his shoulders, faintly exuding a terrifying aura. His eyes were fixed on the Suimo Domain on the map, like a hunter who had spotted its prey.

"Understood!" A general of the Blood Fight Army saluted, a bloodthirsty expression on his face. An icy killing intent permeated through the walls, freezing the artificial lake in the courtyard solid.

「In the former imperial city of the Thunder Divine Court」

Huang Zhong, garrisoned there, also issued an attack order: "Commander, attack the Youhuo Domain..."

That afternoon, a legion brimming with killing intent marched west!

Soon, the flames of war swept across these three Domains. With the strength of the Great Qin Divine Court, they effortlessly defeated the armies of the various factions, advancing deep into enemy territory. Realizing the enemy’s overwhelming strength, the factions in these three Domains tacitly gave up resistance and chose to surrender to save their lives.

This war concluded in just three days! The Great Qin Divine Court secured final victory with only forty-nine minor injuries and no fatalities.

Far away in the Imperial Capital, Qin Wudao also heard the system’s prompts. Perhaps because these were three ordinary Domains, the treasures rewarded by the system this time were all quite mediocre. They were a bottle of Enhancing Spirit Pills, one Profound Level Cultivation Technique, and one Profound Level Heart Method.

It seems that as my strength increases, the rewards from ordinary Domains have become useless! Qin Wudao sighed, feeling a bit disappointed.

But he quickly calmed his mind and began to examine the rewards from the three King-level factions.

The Great Wall! Guo Jia! Thunder Origin! Just from their names, I can tell these three are good items!

System, inspect the Great Wall and the Thunder Origin! Qin Wudao thought to himself. He was very curious about these two treasures, especially the Great Wall.

In my previous life, the Great Wall was built by the First Emperor to defend against the Xiongnu invasions. It played a crucial role throughout the long history of Huaxia. So, who built this Great Wall? And what are its effects?
