It took four hours for all the officials to be conferred their titles. Of course, they were all important officials. Some of the minor officials were not conferred their titles yet.
At the end of the conferment, Gu Hai carefully rolled up the golden thread scroll. Then, he held the golden thread scroll in one hand and the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal in the other as he slowly walked down the altar.
Then, he slowly walked to the Soaring Palace Hall.
The officials followed behind Gu Hai and slowly walked into the main hall.
The large hall was more than thirty meters tall, and the interior was extremely spacious. There was a tall platform in the north. Gu Hai slowly walked up the steps to the tall platform in the north. A golden dragon throne was placed on the tall platform, looking extremely exquisite.
Earlier, the master of ceremonies delivered the official conferment edict. The master placed the edict on a table at the side.
Gu Hai grabbed the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal and slowly placed it on the edict.
Boom!
The Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal's seal indicated that this conferment was effective.
Gu Hai looked at the two rows of officials and slowly sat on the dragon throne.
"Greetings, His Majesty. Long live His Majesty! Long live His Majesty!" the officials shouted.
In the Divine Continent:
Outside an extremely luxurious large hall:
Long Wanqing and Venerable Liu Nian slowly came out of the large hall.
"Venerable, what is Maternal Grandfather's attitude?" Long Wanqing showed a complicated expression.
"Hall Master, His Holiness will make a decision. Just wait patiently," Venerable Liu Nian said bitterly. How could Venerable Liu Nian dare to say anything when they just left? Even if Venerable Liu Nian said anything, Daqiansheng, who was inside, would hear it clearly.
"Gu Hai should have established a nation by now, right? I wonder if it is a mundane kingdom or a dynasty? "Long Wanqing said with a frown.
"A mundane kingdom? Haha! I think that Gu Hai is not interested in it. He should have directly announced it to the world and established a dynasty. However, Gu Hai's accumulations are too shallow. Even if he established a dynasty, it would be the weakest one, "Venerable Liu Nian said bitterly.
"The weakest dynasty?" Long Wanqing frowned slightly.
"The weakest, as weak as an ordinary kingdom. How much territory does he have? How many citizens does he have? How many experts did he have? Not to mention dynasties, if not for Gu Hai, given the national strength of his dynasty, even a small Spiritual Beast tribe would be able to destroy it, not to mention a dynasty. A slightly stronger kingdom would be able to crush Gu Hai's dynasty. Only in the barren, barren land of the Thousand Islands Sea would Gu Hai have this opportunity, "Venerable Liu Nian said bitterly.
"At the very least, it's an empire!" Long Wanqing shook her head.
The two of them slowly left the hall.
In the hall, two voices slowly sounded.
"His Holiness, this is the information from the Thousand Islands Sea. It's about Gu Hai!" An extremely respectful voice sounded.
After a moment of silence, a dignified voice slowly sounded, "Gu Hai? This is rather interesting! "
"Where is Li Shenji now?" The voice from the Daqiansheng came again.
"Ever since His Holiness dismissed him, he has been roaming the world. Recently, he seems to be fishing for turtles in the Northern Sea!" The extremely respectful voice rang out.
"Fishing for turtles? Humph! Send my orders. Have him reorganize the Shenji Battalion within three months! "The voice from the Daqiansheng came again.
"Yes!"
Above the vast sea north of the Thousand Islands Sea: Dark clouds covered the sky.
Boom!
A loud sound rang out, and an overwhelming tsunami soared into the sky. The tsunami tossed a large number of whales into the air.
Amid the flashing lightning and roaring thunder, a colossal object appeared on the surface of the sea. It was a gigantic tortoise, about one thousand five hundred meters long. The entire sea seemed to obey its orders.
"Roar!"
The gigantic tortoise roared, and boundless seawater soared into the sky, enveloping a figure in the center.
Boom!
A loud sound rang out from the center of the water, and a purple-robed man shot out.
The purple-robed man held what looked like a golden tortoise shell in his hand as he threw a palm strike.
When the purple-robed man threw a palm strike, a one thousand five hundred meters wide manifested palm pressed down. It looked like it would flatten the entire sea as it clashed with the gigantic tortoise.
"Roar!"
Boom!
The gigantic tortoise's palm struck, and the two palms clashed. A surging storm kicked up in the air. The storm instantly appeared, and the chaotic air currents formed four tornadoes that wildly sucked in seawater.
"Hahahahaha! Miao Chen, I'll keep this Xuanwu Golden Armor for now. Like I said before, if you are willing to submit to me, I'll return this Xuanwu Golden Armor to you! Hahaha! "The purple-robed man soared into the sky, fleeing into the distance.
"Li Shenji, you thief! Stop right there! Roar!" The gigantic tortoise, Miao Chen, roared as it gave chase. The surging seawater seemed to heed its orders, surging into the sky with it.
The purple-robed man turned his head with pride in his eyes. Then, he threw another palm strike with the flip of his hand.
Boom!
When man and tortoise clashed, they immediately moved some distance apart.
The purple-robed man soared into the sky, looking like a flying ship hidden in the clouds.
"Bang!"
Li Shenji landed on the flying ship and said, "Let's go!"
"Yes!" the attendant on the flying ship answered.
Whoosh!
The flying ship immediately turned into a beam of light and flew far away.
"Li Shenji, you despicable person! Roar!" The gigantic tortoise, Miao Chen, raised its head and roared above the sea.
The surrounding seawater soared into the sky, and countless fish flew up and fell back down.
Rumble …!
After a while, the sea calmed down due to the gigantic tortoise, Miao Chen.
"Buzz!"
Miao Chen's figure flashed, and he turned into a large man wearing embroidered robes. Then, he looked coldly in the direction that Li Shenji left in.
A group of subordinates slowly appeared behind Miao Chen. These subordinates respectfully stood behind Miao Chen.
"Elder Miao, this subordinate is incompetent. Unexpectedly, Li Shenji is so sinister. To think that he came for the Golden Sovereign Armor!" one of the subordinates said with an unsightly expression.
Miao Chen looked into the distance and said with a sullen expression, "A Prime fell. However, the Prime's shard cannot be desecrated. No matter who it is, anyone who dares to stain the Golden Sovereign Armor will die!"
"Li Shenji is gone. What should we do now?"
"Guard the sea palace well. I can sense the Golden Sovereign Armor's location. He will not be able to escape. Humph!" Miao Chen glared.
"Yes!"
Whoosh!
As Miao Chen stepped forward, his figure flashed as he shot into the distance.
On the flying ship:
Li Shenji held a golden shard in his hand and carefully inspected it.
Li Shenji looked somewhat similar to Li Haoran. Although he was Li Haoran's uncle, he looked younger and skinnier. His hands were long and slender, making him look like a youth in his twenties. However, his eyes exuded a sinister air.
"Clan Head, is this Xuanwu's Golden Sovereign Armor?" One of the subordinates looked at the golden shard in Li Shenji's hand curiously.
"Xuanwu's Golden Sovereign Armor. Back then, when Prime Xuanwu suffered the wrath of heaven, his entire body exploded. This is just a shard of his tortoise shell. Prime Xuanwu? Ha! Back then, he defied heaven together with Old Man Guanqi. Unfortunately, he failed. Old Man Guanqi suffered the wrath of heaven, and the Sky Chess Pavilion was nearly wiped out. As an accomplice, he naturally did not end up well. Prime Xuanwu? Prime Xuanwu? Rumor had it that his tortoise shell was the strongest defense in the world. The strongest defense? So what? Didn't it shatter before the wrath of heaven? "Li Shenji said with a cold smile.
As Li Shenji grabbed Xuanwu's Golden Sovereign Armor, he gently waved his hand.
Whoosh!
All of a sudden, a cloud of mist condensed in the surroundings.
"Oh? That's right. This tortoise shell can call the wind and summon the rain, summoning clouds and water? "Li Shenji said in surprise.
"Family Head, I heard that 800 years ago, after the fall of the Black Tortoise Paragon, the Turtle-Snake Tribe also suffered a great calamity and fell apart. Many experts scattered to the four corners of the divine continent. Many of the Turtle-Snake Tribe were captured to be the guardian beasts of some sects?"
"Humph! The winner is king, and the loser is a bandit! It is already pretty good to be able to survive. However, this Miao Chen lives alone in the Northern Sea, unwilling to enter the Divine Continent. He is rather stubborn. However, it does not matter. I will slowly subdue him! "A golden light flashed in Li Shenji's eyes.
"Oh, right. Haoran left the capital?" Li Shenji asked.
"Yes. I heard that he took the initiative to go to the Thousand Islands Sea. He said that he was going to protect Long Wanqing! "That subordinate nodded.
"Long Wanqing? The Elite Hall Master? The Thousand Islands Sea? Foolish! Foolish! "Li Shenji said with narrowed eyes.
"Ah?"
"Does he not know about the death of the Elite Hall Master Long Xiaoyue? The waters here are extraordinarily deep. Would he dare to get involved in this? Furthermore, the Thousand Islands Sea? The Thousand Islands Sea? Although they are all unranked sects, does he not know that that used to be the Sky Chess Pavilion's territory? That is the land of the wrath of heaven, a forbidden land. Old Man Guanqi might be dead, but that old man definitely has countless schemes. Any one of those schemes can consign them to eternal damnation. Humph! "Li Shenji said coldly.
"Ah? What should we do, then? "
"Quickly send a message to him and tell him to scram back immediately. The waters of the Thousand Islands Sea are not something he can explore!" Li Shenji said coldly.
"Ah? Yes. This subordinate will immediately send the message when I return! "
"Speaking of the Thousand Islands Sea, it seems that the Thousand Islands Sea has a Xuanwu as well, right?" Li Shenji asked with a frown.
"Yes. However, this Xuanwu already split. Xuanwu is a combination of a tortoise and a snake. This Xuanwu seems to be a tortoise and a snake. They seem to be constantly fighting over resources, wanting to evolve into a dragon!"
"Evolve into a dragon? Haha! When Prime Xuanwu was alive, who in the Xuanwu Race would want to evolve into a dragon? A dragon is a dragon. Xuanwu is Xuanwu. The Xuanwu is no weaker than the Dragon Race! "Li Shenji said with a cold smile.
"This subordinate doesn't understand either!"
"There's nothing you don't understand. When Prime Xuanwu died, the god of the Xuanwu Race was also extinguished by the heavens. When the god of a race is extinguished, the race will only decline. Who knows how many tens of thousands of years it will take for a new god to be born. Haha! Have the Xuanwu Race started to give up on their race? It's truly an unstoppable decline! "Li Shenji said coldly.
Whoosh!
The flying ship flew quickly. Ten days later, it finally arrived at a piece of land.
Soon, the flying ship landed in front of a group of palaces.
At this moment, a group of people wearing mourning clothes knelt outside the palaces. Many of them were crying and complaining.
"Uncle, I implore you to avenge Big Brother!"
"Uncle, my Big Brother died so miserably!"
"Patriarch, Haoran was killed by a vile person. He died so miserably!"
"Patriarch, I implore you to avenge Haoran!"
… … …
… … …
… …
Cries and wails sounded outside Li Shenji's flying ship.
On the flying ship, Li Shenji's pupils suddenly shrank when he saw a crude coffin lying in the center of the group of people crying and kneeling.
