“Regardless, we now have a goal. Send out the order for all Divine Realm and Spirit World cultivators to be on the lookout for Heaven God King, as well as all Peak Divine Realm and high-level Divine Realm Ghost Practitioners. Should any information surface, report it immediately, and substantial rewards will be granted! Should anyone locate those two treasures, they shall be awarded a first-class merit. Anyone who captures those two treasures and presents them will receive ten first-class merits!” Divine Emperor Yi Fire declared.

Upon hearing Divine Emperor Yi Fire’s proclamation of hefty rewards, the assembly of powerhouses stirred once again, though the reaction wasn’t as intense as before, given the precedent of previous generous rewards.

Besides, upon further reflection, if what Rat and Blue Lotus God Monarch had described was accurate, the two treasures were extremely valuable. Even if they did not grant entrance to the Netherworld for the Divine Realm beings of the Spirit World, they were worth ten first-class merits.

Soon, the imperial powerhouses dispersed.

Within the grand hall, only Divine Emperor Yi Fire and a few trusted subordinates remained.

“Your Majesty, about the missions you’ve just issued… Aren’t the rewards a bit too generous…? In fact, slightly less would still suffice…” a subordinate hesitated.

Yi Fire glanced at this subordinate, then looked at the others, noticing many shared the sentiment, and he sighed softly.

“Times have changed. Worldly possessions are ultimately just that, possessions. True power is the eternal pursuit… Look at the Innate Divine Race Empire, hoarding so much yet reluctant to spend, and now their resources have fallen into the hands of our Acquired Divine Race’s powerhouses!”

“In just a few hundred million years, the Acquired Divine Race Empire has seen the rise of a hundred Peak Divine Realm beings, all thanks to those resources!”

“Had the Innate Divine Race Empire made full use of these resources, even if they had granted them to our Acquired Divine Race powerhouses, our rebellion would not have been so effortless!”

“Do not underestimate the Netherworld. In just a few decades, it has spawned nearly ten million Divine Realm and tens of thousands of mid-level Divine Realm, along with dozens of high-level Divine Realm beings. Even with the influence of the Innate Prince, can we really afford to overlook it? Even if the Innate Prince has fallen and the Netherworld can no longer maintain such rapid growth, what if they take ten times longer, a hundred times, a thousand, even ten thousand times longer?”

“A thousandfold or ten thousandfold of a few decades is merely tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years! What is that to us?”

“The Ghost Practitioners of the Netherworld may be suppressed in the Spirit World, but their sheer numbers cannot be understated. If they were to clash with our Acquired Divine Race Empire, it’s hard to say if we could indeed match them!”

“Why wait to utilize those resources?”

“If disbursing these resources can truly enhance the strength of our empire and ourselves, then it is worth it!”

Yi Fire shook his head.

At this point, he thought about the two treasures Rat had mentioned. If the earlier missions were for the good of the Acquired Divine Race Empire, then this last mission was for himself.

Over the past several hundred million years, his power had greatly increased, but as time went on, it became increasingly difficult to enhance his strength. In the last one or two hundred million years, his power had not increased at all.

Because of this, he started to pay attention to whether there was any rebellious intent among the powerhouses of the Acquired Divine Race Empire.

No matter how strong an individual is, there is always a limit.

If he could obtain those two treasures, perhaps his strength could significantly increase, and the significance would be immense.

Whether it was for his own pursuit of power, the stability of the empire, or the threat posed by the Netherworld, it would be greatly beneficial.

In that case, what would ten first-class merits matter?

He feared that even if an imperial powerhouse acquired those two treasures, ten first-class merits might not be enough to persuade them to hand them over.

First-class merits are hard to come by, but in the long run, they can be accumulated slowly; whereas, for powerhouses at their level, it is genuinely difficult to increase their strength by even a fraction.

Look at the Divine Emperor of the Innate Divine Race Empire who has been around since the primordial era. He could only slowly be surpassed by Acquired Divine Race powerhouses and eventually be overthrown. He did not wish to meet the same fate.

“So that’s how it is…”

“Your Majesty is wise…”

The subordinates bowed deeply in respect.

“Pay special attention to the last mission. Should any information arise, no matter what I’m doing, report it to me immediately!” Thinking about those two treasures, Yi Fire felt somewhat uneasy and reiterated his order to the subordinates.

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

The subordinates received the command.
