The heavenly sound echoed, and there were shocking phenomena everywhere. Even the universe outside the Divine Kingdom was filled with holy and bright light. Golden lotuses were everywhere, and the Great Dao surrounded them. It was too shocking.
Many cultivators and living beings who had come to listen to the sermons for more than half a month had a deep understanding. At the same time, they had a deeper reverence for the Dark Heavenly Court.
Even some of the older generation with profound cultivation couldn't help but be affected, let alone the younger generation.
After all, apart from the prosperous era of ancient times, no one in the current era had ever seen a sermon on the Dao. There wouldn't be any supreme powerhouses who would explain the Dao to all living beings.
Now, everyone cherished their own knowledge. No one would tell others their cultivation experience for no reason.
The explanation of an immortal contained many ideas that contradicted the mortal world. However, it was undeniable that these ideas made people's eyes light up and see the fog.
"Those who enter the Divine Kingdom can listen to sermons at any time."
"Not only that, but there's also a chance to enter the Immortal Bestowment Roll. As long as one reaches the Supreme Realm, there's a chance. There's no need to spend so much effort to cultivate to the point where there's a foundation."
"For us, this is tantamount to an opportunity to reach the heavens in one step. It's too tempting …"
It had to be said that Gu Changge's words moved the hearts of all who came here to worship. They felt that it was not impossible to submit to the Divine Kingdom.
Even those with a foundation began to think about it. Their emotions were complicated, and it was impossible for them to sit still like before.
The real way to become an immortal and the path to immortality was in the hands of Gu Changge. He could decide at will whether all living beings could become immortals.
If they continued to wait, who could be sure when the path to immortality would appear?
Moreover, if the path to immortality appeared, who could guarantee that Gu Changge wouldn't interfere? His ruthlessness and indifference were vividly displayed during this period of time, making people tremble in fear.
Moreover, the power of the Divine Kingdom was obvious to all. The only immortal in the Upper Realm was the master of the Divine Kingdom.
In addition, the Divine Kingdom wanted to set up the Immortal Bestowment Roll. For those cultivators and living beings who had no hope of advancing further, it was tantamount to a bright light in the darkness, a blessing in the end of despair.
At this stage of cultivation, there was basically no end in sight or hope.
Suddenly, they were told that as long as they could enter the list, they would be able to reach the end and become an immortal?
In this world, how many people could resist such temptation?
To know that even the undefeatable Heaven's Favorites of the same generation could only dream of attaining the Dao. Becoming an Immortal was an extravagant dream.
Since ancient times, which one of those who were able to reach the level of being a character of the foundation, which one of them wasn't a peerlessly talented existence that was unrivalled amongst their peers?
It had to be said that Gu Changge's plans had a firm grasp of the current situation in the Upper Realm.
Even those orthodoxies that had already sealed off their mountains were deeply moved. They were considering the gains and losses, somewhat unable to hold themselves back.
However, Gu Changge didn't say what kind of restrictions and requirements they would face once they entered the list. He didn't even reveal anything.
This was something that many people couldn't grasp, worrying that there would be a huge trap.
Gu Changge's gaze swept across everyone in the hall. He wasn't surprised as he had already guessed their reaction.
Although he had other plans and plans, for now, the Immortal Investiture Roll and the preaching of the Dao were enough.
The Immortal Investiture Roll was targeted at cultivators of the Supreme Realm and above, while the preaching of the Dao was for cultivators of all realms, especially those with low cultivation and the largest number of ordinary cultivators.
As for how to enter the Immortal Investiture Roll?
In fact, Gu Changge had already thought about it. He couldn't say that he was simply doing a good deed and giving the world such a shortcut.
After entering the roll, they had to sincerely submit to the God Nation and rely on it with their lives. They had to live and die with the God Nation and be under his control.
Apart from that, they also needed to have sufficient contributions.
The second point was the most important one. Gu Changge couldn't say that after those cultivators had submitted to the God Nation, he would let them enter the roll directly. That would be too simple.
The heavens were too vast and there were still many unknown areas waiting to be explored.
These cultivators who wanted to enter the roll, in Gu Changge's eyes, were the simplest and also the best tools for development.
The Immortal Investiture Roll sounded simple, but it involved the repetition of the laws of heaven and earth, and the creation of a True Immortal with the vast power of faith. It could even cause the repulsion of heaven and earth, and cause a backlash from heaven and earth.
However, these things weren't what Gu Changge needed to consider at the moment. Because he also knew that this kind of method of drawing a big picture, only when the big picture was taken out could it cause a real sensation.
After that, many guests in the hall planned to leave and discuss this matter in detail with their families. They wouldn't make a decision so quickly.
For orthodoxies like the Longevity Gu Clan and the Wushuang Immortal Dynasty, they didn't have so many worries. Because in itself, the God Nation was established, and the Divine Lord was Gu Changge. At the same time, he was also the future leader of the Gu Clan. There was no distinction between the two.
And the current Empress of the Wushuang Immortal Dynasty was Gu Changge's wife.
From this point of view, the Longevity Gu Clan, the Wushuang Immortal Dynasty, and other orthodoxies existed as the foundation of the God Nation. They didn't rely on or submit to the God Nation.
There was no conflict of interest between the two.
Gu Changge didn't say anything. He just looked at the crowd silently with a calm expression.
Many of the believers of the God Nation prostrated themselves devoutly outside. The vast power of faith surged and gathered towards the brilliant sun in the sky.
Among them was the Golden Cauldron of Fortune that Gu Changge had refined. He had used a different method to refine it. Not only could it collect the power of faith, but it could also be used as a container to convert the power of faith into other origin powers.
The so-called Immortal Investiture Roll was in essence created by relying on the power of faith. It allowed cultivators who hadn't reached the Immortal Dao to unleash the power of the Immortal Dao.
In the next few days, the Divine Nation was established, its light illuminating the heavens. Many news related to this place had already spread, circulating in various universes.
After some consideration, many orthodoxies decided to submit to the God Nation as its subjects.
However, Gu Changge didn't take the initiative to show himself after that day. He left all the big and small affairs of the God Nation to Yin Mei.
Previously, Yin Mei was in charge of the affairs of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty, the Business Alliance of Ten Thousand Paths, and other orthodoxies. She was already familiar with these matters.
Besides, Gu Changge also asked Ji Qingxuan, who was in the Chaotic Star Region, to assist Yin Mei.
Hei Yan Yu from the Immortal Ancient Continent was also a very ambitious person. After some consideration, Gu Changge saw that she was loyal and gave her some authority.
The God Nation had just been established, so there were many things that needed to be resolved. Gu Changge wasn't interested in these trivial matters and didn't want to spend time and energy on them. It saved him a lot of free time.
In the past few decades, he didn't slack off. While refining the Devil Lord's blood, he also sacrificially refined the six puppets, starting from Ah Da and then Ah Jiu.
Ah Er was the Hall Master who destroyed Hell. The Reincarnation Ancient Heavenly Lord was named Third by Gu Changge.
Their strength was comparable to that of a Remnant Immortal, and even stronger than the thirty-six Celestial Lords.
As for these thirty Star Venerates, they were all people with solid foundations. Some of them had their minds wiped out, and Gu Changge had forcibly refined them. Although their cultivations had dropped significantly, they could still easily suppress those who had comprehended the Dao.
Some of them were the powerhouses of their orthodoxies. Their cultivation was profound, and they willingly submitted to Gu Changge to serve him.
In general, the God Nation wasn't inferior to any orthodoxies in terms of strength. They had many Immortal Weapons.
Most of them were obtained by Gu Changge when he killed those powerhouses during the Kun Ji Calamity. In the end, they were all put into the national treasury.
In the past, the imperishable orthodoxies only had one or two Immortal Weapons at most. They couldn't be as extravagant as the God Nation.
"The God Nation has just been established. Apart from the territories it occupies in the past, some territories in other realms can also be included.
"For example, the Empyrean Wilderness Ten Realms. Everyone knows about your relationship with the Empyrean Deer Empyrean Maiden. She's in charge of that territory, so logically speaking, the Empyrean Wilderness Ten Realms should also belong to the God Nation.
"Then there's Empress Xi Yao in the Monster Realm …"
In the great hall, Gu Changge was quietly reading through the many jade slips in front of him, looking at the many matters he'd dealt with recently.
At the side, Yin Mei was wearing a snow-white dress. Her figure was slender and graceful, and her flawless face had a serious expression as she narrated these matters.
"There's no need to think too much about these issues …
"As for the Empyrean Deer Empyrean Maiden, when the time comes to establish the Empyrean Deer Palace in the God Nation, she'll know what to do with a little effort.
"The same goes for Empress Xi Yao."
Gu Changge nodded. He didn't care much about these trivial matters.
The Empyrean Deer Empyrean Maiden was very smart. When the Upper Realm conquered the Eight Desolates Ten Regions, she showed extraordinary decisiveness and rationality.
At this time, she definitely wouldn't say anything. She would even refute Gu Changge's opinion.
As for Empress Xi Yao, she was probably thinking about how to lead the Monster Realm into the God Nation. She just hadn't said anything yet.
On the contrary, what Gu Changge was looking at now was the submission of the various orthodoxies and tribes. Compared to what he had expected, it was still much slower.
But it made sense. Although the God Nation was strong and had the Immortal Dao in charge, the environment of the Upper Realm was changing. Perhaps in the near future, the Immortal Realm and the God Nation would collide. Everything would be reshuffled again.
Gu Changge didn't want to use force to subdue the orthodoxies like before unless it was absolutely necessary.
This was because the Upper Realm had finally regained peace. In the eyes of ordinary cultivators, it was his creation of the God Nation that solved these problems.
Therefore, at this time, Gu Changge breaking the current situation would greatly affect the reputation of the faith and the God Nation. This was contrary to his long-term plan.
Creating the God Nation to absorb the faith was one thing. On the other hand, Gu Changge considered that if the Immortal Realm and the Upper Realm connected, it would lead to a drastic change in the current situation. He had to control the Upper Realm. Only then could he have the initiative to speak in that situation.
After all, for the Immortal Realm, the Upper Realm was the foundation. Over the years, instead of saying that the Immortal Realm had abandoned the Upper Realm, it was more like a rootless duckweed, drifting unpredictably.
In fact, Gu Changge didn't know what the current situation of the Immortal Realm was.
Therefore, he prepared in advance. Whether the situation in the Immortal Realm was good or bad, it would not affect him.
"Master, since these problems are not considered for the time being, since the God Nation has been decided, should we set up many positions like the mortal kingdoms?"
"Over the past few days, I have collected the opinions of many orthodoxies and aristocratic families. They hope to obtain some rights within the God Nation …"
"They don't want to say that after submitting to the God Nation, everything will belong to the God Nation as if they were annexed. This is also the reason why they have been considering whether to submit or not … "
Yin Mei spoke up, her brows slightly furrowed. Because the Divine Nation had only just been established, many matters had been dealt with casually. There was no detailed division of power and authority.
Although Gu Changge was respectfully called the Divine Lord by the world, she was still used to calling him Master in private.
"You should have considered these matters, right?" After hearing this, Gu Changge nodded. He knew that since Yin Mei said this, she must have thought about how to deal with it. She just wanted to inform him.
"I have discussed with Ji Qingxuan and the others. We have decided to divide the orthodoxies according to their strength. 1.6 will be divided into nine grades. In addition, we can further divide the levels of Mortal, Spirit, God, Sage, Emperor, Immortal …"
"According to the different levels, the territories and authority can be divided according to their strength. They can be promoted or demoted according to the changes in strength."
After hearing this, Yin Mei nodded seriously. At the same time, she passed a very thick booklet to Gu Changge. The booklet detailed the process and rules of how to divide the authority and other matters.
Gu Changge read it carefully and did not find anything inappropriate. Although this was an effective place to imitate the ordinary, in general, it was still arranged according to the strength of the orthodoxies in the Upper Realm.
"Perhaps we can use this to divide the rankings …"
"In this world, no matter who it is, it is difficult to escape the word 'reputation'. It is the same for the forces, clans, and powerhouses."
Yin Mei then mentioned another plan.
All these years, she had been in charge of the Ten Thousand Dao Business Alliance. In some places, she had set up organizations similar to the Divine Strategy and the Ten Thousand Dao Heavenly Mystery. They specialized in collecting information from various places and arranged various rankings. It was quite effective.
Therefore, she felt that if the Heavenly Nation ruled the Ten Thousand Dao Heavens, it could naturally set up various rankings.
From the people with a strong foundation, to the ordinary Heavenly Prides, to the aristocratic families and clans, weapons, treasures, supernatural powers, and cultivation methods … all could be listed.
The advantage of this was that it could gather fate and absorb faith. This would make all living beings more obedient and identify with the Heavenly Nation.
"Your idea is quite good. I haven't thought about it carefully before."
Gu Changge was very impressed. He knew that no matter who it was in this world, they could not escape from fame and fortune.
