Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield Chapter 881 Chapter 358: Emperor Qin Shi Huang's Challenge Arrives at the Heavenly Court!

Now.

Zhao Feng finally comprehended thoroughly the immense utility of Spiritual Essence.

It was no wonder that beings in the Immortal Realm, Immortals and Buddhas alike, yearned to cultivate it; it significantly accelerated one's cultivation journey without any adverse effects.

The Spiritual Essence power refined from five thousand Heavenly Soldiers would suffice to elevate numerous Martial Arts powerhouses within Qin to new heights.

For instance, Ren Xiao, currently in the Divine Power Realm, had already broken through the Nine Layered Realm and entered the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm. Should he fully absorb the Spiritual Essence from the Spiritual Charm Pill, he was destined to reach the Shattering Void Realm.

"However, the sheer potency of the Spiritual Charm Pill's energy demands a minimum cultivation of the Divine Power Realm before one can even attempt refinement; otherwise, the risk of self-detonation is perilously high."

"Caution is still paramount," Zhao Feng mused.

His gaze then shifted to Ying Zheng.

"Father."

"I still possess thousands of pills identical to the ones Ren just consumed."

"I shall entrust these to you for distribution among those in Qin who have attained Martial Arts Cultivation beyond the Divine Power Realm, and Immortal Cultivation equivalent to or surpassing Qi Refining and Divinity Transformation."

"Remember, their consumption necessitates gradual refinement," Zhao Feng cautioned.

With a solemn expression, Zhao Feng continued, "I will handle this matter with the utmost care."

Ying Zheng nodded, his own face grave.

Soon after.

Zhao Feng promptly summoned the Tianxuan Mirror and handed over all five thousand refined Spiritual Essence pills to Ying Zheng.

"Feng'er."

"The immediate threat posed by the Heavenly Court has been neutralized."

"Qin's overall might still requires substantial reinforcement."

"Should we extend the duration of time spent within the cultivation grounds?" Ying Zheng inquired.

"For the upcoming period, let us set the duration to half a year."

"Half a year in Qin equates to twenty-five years within the cultivation grounds. With sufficient talent and Martial Roots of mid-grade or higher, twenty-five years, coupled with the Tianxuan Mirror and the abundance of pills, offers a viable path to becoming a Great Grandmaster."

"In the future, while Qin may not emulate the Heavenly Court's Celestial Soldiers, every individual should strive to reach the Martial Arts Realm of Divinity to confront Heavenly Soldiers on equal footing in battle," Zhao Feng declared with firm resolve.

The Martial Arts Realm of Divinity held the power to suppress the Human Immortal Realm.

This was Zhao Feng's strategic vision for the Qin Army's future.

"Grandfather."

"Father."

"I have faith."

"Given Qin's current flourishing national power, abundant treasury, and plentiful cultivation resources, we ought to further reward Qin's ministers and the Elite Soldiers of Daqin with augmented annual stipends, thereby invigorating Qin's spirit of cultivation," Zhao Qi proposed.

To this suggestion.

Ying Zheng and Zhao Feng exchanged a knowing glance and readily concurred.

"Qi'er, since you possess the initiative."

"You shall determine the scale of the annual salary increases."

"In addition to the stipends, you will also be granted the authority to regulate access to the Heavenly Profound Cultivation Space, allocating cultivation time based on rank and distinguished service."

"Furthermore, devise a system for collecting contribution points from civilian Martial Artists who wish to utilize the Heavenly Profound Cultivation Space," Ying Zheng instructed with a smile, entrusting this entire initiative to Zhao Qi.

"I shall not disappoint Grandfather or Father," Zhao Qi affirmed, accepting the decree with immediate resolve.

Presently, the Tian Xuan Mirror had evolved into the cornerstone of exchanges within Qin.

A significant portion of Qin's military provisions and other essential supplies were facilitated through the Tian Xuan Mirror.

Naturally.

To foster the prosperity of civilian commerce.

The prerogative to transmit goods via the Tian Xuan Mirror was not extended to the general populace; they were obligated to procure ordinary cultivation resources, pills, and the like from local merchants.

With the pervasive cultivation culture throughout Qin, a multitude of civilian herbalists, alchemists, and artifact refiners had emerged within the territory.

The official annual salaries, pills, and weaponry provided to Qin's military personnel largely originated not from Qin's own Elixir Hall and Artifact Hall but rather from the Minor World under Zhao Feng's purview.

The existence of the Minor World served as Qin's ultimate contingency and its primary source of resources.

In contrast to Shenzhou's vast population base, which formed the bedrock of Qin, the Martial Arts practiced within the Minor World had been thoroughly integrated and even surpassed Shenzhou's overall martial prowess, though their focus lay primarily in pill refinement and herb cultivation.

Zhao Feng's current strategic deployment of the Minor World was for the purpose of sustained supply.

"A declaration of war has been officially issued."

"I suspect that more adversaries from the Immortal Realm will attempt an invasion."

"These encroaching foes might prove too formidable for any of our current officials."

"Therefore."

"Your sole mission is to provide the Daqin Elite Soldiers with complete backing as they sweep through the Mortal World."

"This must be accomplished within one year."

Ying Zheng proclaimed to the gathered multitude.

This declaration was an undeniable mandate, one that required fulfillment.

"We, your ministers, obediently accept this decree."

The assembled officials responded in unified accord.

"First, we shall subdue the Mortal World, and then, we will conquer the Immortal Realm," Ying Zheng mused inwardly.

"With this declaration of war issued, the Heavenly Court should dispatch an unending stream of Celestial Soldiers to the Lower Realm for conquest, shouldn't they?"

Zhao Feng gazed upwards at the celestial vault, a look of eager anticipation on his face.

Presently, Qin is in dire need of powerful cultivators. If more Heavenly Soldiers and Immortal Cultivation powerhouses descend, it would be akin to delivering vital resources directly to Qin!

...

In the Heaven Realm, within the Lingxiao Palace!

Immortals and gods convene.

Hao Tian is seated regally upon the imperial throne.

At this very moment,

The Immortals and Gods assembled in Lingxiao had not yet dispersed, clearly awaiting the outcome of the battle in the Mortal World.

A single day within the Immortal Realm equates to an entire year in the Mortal World.

With the might of five thousand Heavenly Soldiers, they were expected to conquer the Mortal World within a single Chinese hour in the Heaven Realm.

Eradicating Qin with the power of Immortals was considered an effortless task.

This was the unwavering conviction held by all the Immortals and Gods present.

"Your Majesty."

"It has been nearly one Chinese hour."

"Many days have elapsed in the Mortal World."

"I presume the Heavenly Soldiers have already annihilated Qin in the Mortal World," Li Jing remarked, stepping forward with a smile.

Hao Tian remained silent, a subtle smile gracing his brow.

It was evident that

He possessed absolute confidence in the Heavenly Soldiers' invasion of the Mortal World.

However, at that precise moment!

"Your Majesty."

"Something has gone terribly wrong."

"All the soul tablets belonging to the five thousand Heavenly Soldiers dispatched to the Mortal World have been shattered, including those of the Golden Immortal Heavenly General."

"Furthermore."

"As the Void Channel was closing, a scroll originating from the Mortal World was transmitted here."

The Martial Battle Star Lord entered the Lingxiao Palace, his expression grave.
