Chapter 271 -220 Contemplating the Ancient Heavenly Blade_4

Even mastering a fraction of its essence could significantly increase one’s own power.

Having received the information left behind by Murong Xiu, Gu Qingfeng had realized that beyond the heavens were other heavens, and the Ancient Desolate World teemed with powerful beings; even reaching the Daoist Palace Realm did not guarantee one could act with impunity.

Another point.

The issue with Divine Sun Sacred Land was always a hidden threat.

The inheritance of the Saint was enticing.

Although Murong Xiu had passed away ten thousand years ago, and the Saint’s inheritance had fallen into his hands, Gu Qingfeng viewed it as a ticking time bomb.

Who could guarantee that the forces that had obliterated Divine Sun Sacred Land and forced Murong Xiu to flee to the Nine States to barely survive would not discover his whereabouts hidden within the Nine States?

Even though the probability was small, it was something that couldn’t be completely ignored.

Thus,

Gu Qingfeng was intent on boosting his strength as much as possible.

Daoist Palace Nine Layers!

Saint Nine Layers!

It was evident that the waters of the Ancient Desolate World ran extraordinarily deep.

…

“Your Majesty,” began the minister, “news has come from Tianxiong Pass that fierce beasts have erupted from the Ancient Beast Mountain Range causing havoc and claiming many lives of the common people!”

In the courtroom, a minister spoke with a grave voice.

Hearing this,

Gu Yang’s expression was cold, “Shi Zhen!”

“At your service!”

“I command you to lead the Heavenly Gang Army to Tianxiong Pass immediately and suppress the fierce beasts!”

“Your servant obeys the decree!”

Shi Zhen accepted the command with a serious demeanor.

That fierce beasts roamed the Ancient Beast Mountain Range was well known, but Shi Zhen harbored no fear.

After all, times had changed.

Now,

He had reached the pinnacle of a Great Grandmaster in his cultivation.

Moreover, the capabilities of the Heavenly Gang Army under his command had also improved to varying extents, and the original Heavenly Gang Divine Slaughter formation had made significant advancements.

With this,

Even if he faced a being from the Divinity Realm, Shi Zhen believed he stood a chance in battle.

Seeing Shi Zhen accept the command and retreat, Gu Yang looked at his other ministers and said, “Recently, there have been frequent news from the Nine States of fierce beasts causing troubles, something might have changed at the Ancient Beast Mountain Range.

Issue my command, let people investigate as much as possible the situation in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, and see what has caused the disturbance among the fierce beasts.

Whoever unravels this information will be handsomely rewarded.”

“Whoever clears up this matter will be awarded ten thousand taels of silver and bestowed with a Grandmaster’s Ultimate Skill!”

With these words,

The courtiers were all deeply moved.

Ten thousand taels of silver!

They might be indifferent to it.

But the Grandmaster’s Ultimate Skill, that was different.

Such a level of Martial Arts, even in the court, could provoke immense desire in most.

In today’s world where Martial Arts were increasingly practiced, to enter the court as an official, one must possess a certain level of cultivation.

Similarly,

This was also Gu Yang’s standard for selecting officials.

Without any cultivation at all, there was simply no qualification to serve as an official in the court.

Ability!

Cultivation!

Both were indispensable.

After all, in todays world, even regular civilians with real talent and capability were hardly able to protect themselves; after all, eliminating a mere mortal was all too easy.

Watching the expressions of the people below, Gu Yang paused and then said,

“Previously, Evil Spirits caused chaos and strange calamities, a consequence of the former dynasty’s inaction and the weakness of the people.

Therefore, I plan to follow in the footsteps of the Martial Ancestor from ten thousand years ago, establish academies across the Nine States, and impart Martial Arts to all. Every citizen of the Divine Martial Dynasty, aged six to eighteen, shall be eligible to join these academies to learn Martial Arts!”

“I only wish for everyone under heaven to be as mighty as a dragon!”

With these words,

Everyone was deeply stirred.

Then,

Gu Yang looked towards a middle-aged scholar and said, “Yan Yun, you will take charge of this matter through the Imperial College, and you may also serve as the Dean of the Divine Martial Academy. I want to see branches of the Divine Martial Academy established across the Nine States within a year!”

“I shall heed Your Majesty’s decree carefully!”

Yan Yun spoke earnestly.
