Before Ji Tianxing announced the acceptance of these imperial guards, servants, and odd-job workers, everyone was on tenterhooks and restless.
When they heard Ji Tianxing's announcement, the Imperial Guard commanders heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly knelt down to thank him.
Then, Ji Tianxing waved his hand and shot out a ray of divine light, revealing the content of the Heavenly Oath.
The Imperial Guard commanders were very tactful. They already knew the process of swearing allegiance to Kenshin. Without hesitation, they recited the oath on the spot.
After the oath was made, the Imperial Guard commanders' bodies glowed with golden light. A wisp of Daoist Rhyme circled above their heads. Muffled sounds of thunder could be heard from above the Heavenly Palace.
Feeling the terrifying and divine pressure of the Heavenly Dao, the Imperial Guard commanders were filled with fear. They were even more in awe of Ji Tianxing.
After a long time, the Heavenly Dao phenomenon and the terrifying Heavenly Dao aura dissipated. The Imperial Guard commanders regained their senses.
Ji Tianxing gave them another order and instructed them to do two things.
The first thing was to publicly recruit the Imperial Guards to fill the gap in the defense of the Universe Grotto-Heaven.
The second thing was to immediately convey Kenshin's order to inform the Domain Lords that Kenshin would immediately take over the Universe Continent. All the Domain Lords would be summoned to swear allegiance to him.
Previously, when Ji Tianxing was in the Chaotic Mainland, he also went through the same process after he took over the Chaos Grotto-Heaven.
Therefore, the operation was smooth and methodical.
After all, the Universe Continent did not fall apart, nor was it completely chaotic.
As long as the Domain Lords were still around, Ji Tianxing only needed to subdue them and he would be able to subdue the entire continent.
With Ji Tianxing's current reputation, it was inevitable that he would unify the entire God World.
As long as he personally issued the order, the entire Universe Continent would not dare to disobey.
For example, once the news of the Imperial Guards spread, there would definitely be a swarm of applicants. Who knew how many experts and powerhouses would rush to participate in the assessment?
As for the Domain Lords coming to the Universe Grotto-Heaven to swear allegiance, Ji Tianxing was not worried at all that anyone would dare to disobey the order.
Even if he didn't explain how those who disobeyed would be punished, everyone knew that disobeying Kenshin's orders would result in a miserable fate for the soldiers.
The several Imperial Army Marshals hurriedly bowed and left the Conference Hall to carry out the order.
Ji Tianxing strolled around the divine palace alone. He went to check the Eight-eyed Deity King's study room, secret chambers, and treasury to see if there were any missing items or clues.
Although this possibility was very small, he had nothing to do anyway. He had to figure out the structure of the Divine Palace and dig out all its secrets.
…
After three days, Ji Tianxing figured out the structure and all the secrets of the Heaven and Earth Cave.
He knew exactly where the treasure trove was, where the secret chamber was, where the secret passage was, where the underground palace was …
No matter how hidden it was, even if it was a double or triple hidden secret room, he would investigate it thoroughly.
As it turned out … the Eight-eyed Divine King was indeed stingy. He took away all the valuable items.
Moreover, before the Eight-eyed Divine King escaped, he had ample time to prepare.
He cleaned up all the traces and clues and got Ji Tianxing to search the entire Heaven and Earth Cave, but to no avail.
Thus, Ji Tianxing returned to the secret chamber of the Divine Palace and entered the Jiutian Ten Absolutes Pagoda to continue cultivating.
Time passed day after day.
Ji Tianxing's order had already spread to over a hundred regions and was known by all the Gods of the Heaven and Earth Continent.
Every day, a large number of Monarch God experts would rush to the Heaven and Earth Cave to sign up for the examination to become an Imperial Army guard.
The examination was handled by four Imperial Army Marshals.
They were all Lower God Kings and had been Imperial Army Marshals for over a thousand years. They were very experienced in this matter.
For ordinary Imperial Army guards, as long as they were Upper God Kings, they would be able to pass the examination.
However, if they encountered God King experts who wanted to become Imperial Army Marshals, the Marshals would not be qualified to take the examination. They could only report the matter to Kenshin.
Ji Tianxing could only spare some time to simply test the God Kings and select a few of them.
After the God Kings swore their allegiance, they were appointed as the new Imperial Army Marshals.
Ji Tianxing's goal was to gather ten thousand Imperial Army guards, which meant that he needed ten Imperial Army Marshals.
Currently, he had two thousand Imperial Army guards and four Imperial Army Marshals. He needed to recruit another eight thousand Imperial Army guards and six Imperial Army Marshals.
He originally thought that this matter would take a month to complete.
Unexpectedly, there were so many experts and experts who came to sign up that it was completed in just ten days.
Ten days later, the recruitment of the Imperial Army was completed.
The ten Imperial Army Marshals and ten thousand Imperial Army guards began to practice to cultivate tacit understanding and discipline.
At this time, some Territorial Lords came to attack the Heaven and Earth Cave one after another.
Different regions were close to the Heaven and Earth Cave. Even if all the Territorial Lords rushed to the Heaven and Earth Cave as soon as they received the order, there was still a big difference in the time they took to arrive.
The fastest would arrive in a few days, while the furthest would take a month.
Ji Tianxing could only let the Territorial Lords who arrived first to stay in the Heaven and Earth Cave to rest and wait patiently for everyone to arrive.
Those Territorial Lords were obedient and didn't dare to show any impatience. They all stayed in the Heaven and Earth Cave obediently.
Of course, many quick-witted Territorial Lords took the initiative to greet Kenshin, trying to get close to him and improve their relationship.
Unfortunately, Ji Tianxing had been cultivating in seclusion in the secret room and didn't meet with the Territorial Lords alone, which disappointed them.
However, those Territorial Lords thought about it and felt that Kenshin's actions were right.
At least it could ensure that Kenshin treated everyone fairly and justly. Only then would the masses be convinced.
Even if everyone was forced by the Heavenly Oath to swear allegiance to Kenshin, they were still willing to do so.
In addition to the Territorial Lords who rushed to the Heaven and Earth Cave one after another, some mysterious experts also quietly arrived.
No one knew the identities and origins of those mysterious experts. However, after they were brought into the Heaven and Earth Cave by the Imperial Guards, they all quietly paid a visit to Kenshin.
This scene made many Territorial Lords speculate in private.
Of course, they didn't doubt Kenshin's fairness. They were just curious about the origins of those mysterious experts.
Some Territorial Lords recalled what happened in the Chaotic Mainland.
In particular, the people appointed by Kenshin to be in charge of the Chaotic Mainland were all his right-hand men back then.
Therefore, the smarter Territorial Lords guessed that those mysterious experts were most likely Kenshin's subordinates back then.
…
A month's time passed quickly.
The ten Imperial Guard Commanders and ten thousand Imperial Guards also completed their initial run-in and practice. They looked rather solemn and serious.
The Heaven and Earth Cave also returned to its former appearance. There were many experts, and it was quiet and solemn.
Ji Tianxing cultivated in seclusion in the distorted spacetime for another four years, and his strength increased by a few points.
Now, his strength was more than sixty times that of an ordinary peak Divine King.
On the thirty-second day, almost all the Territorial Lords were present.
Early in the morning, Ji Tianxing walked out of the secret room and summoned everyone to meet in the conference hall.
