Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield Chapter 895 Chapter 365: Kingdom of Aolai, Conquest! Proclaimed as Wu Country!

Zhao Feng’s gaze briefly landed on the Spirit Stone that was nurturing Sun Wukong, before shifting towards the continent’s direction. His eyes blazed with fierce ambition. The grand prelude to conquering the Immortal Realm was about to commence. “The Kingdom of Aolai,” he mused. “First, this nation shall fall, securing our foothold in this new world. Following that, the conquest will escalate, aiming to fully subjugate the Eastern Continent. The Heavenly Court…” Zhao Feng whispered the term to himself, then took a decisive step forward. In a mere instant, he materialized on the East Sea coast of the Eastern Continent, near the easternmost territory. “As Ying Bu foretold, the denizens here bear a resemblance to the culture of my Shang and Zhou dynasties. Their attire is similar, though variations appear the farther west one travels,” he observed. “The Kingdom of Aolai, fittingly, consists entirely of the Huaxia ethnicity. It would seem my Mortal World was once an integral part of this Eastern Continent.” Hovering above the void near Coastal City within the Kingdom of Aolai, Zhao Feng’s Divine Thought encompassed the entire city and, indeed, the whole kingdom. This land possessed no Immortal Mountains nor established Immortal Sects, presenting an image of profound peace. Its population, numbering only twenty million at most, though substantial by Mortal World standards, was minuscule within the boundless expanse of the Earth Immortal Realm. It’s important to remember: the Four Great Continents of the Earth Immortal Realm are interconnected, all arising from the primordial land of antiquity. The sheer scale of the Primordial Land was such that even a Daluo Golden Immortal could not perceive its entirety. Therefore, even as a fragmented echo, these Four Great Continents are unimaginably vast. “The cultivation techniques here haven't been widely disseminated; only rudimentary breathing exercises exist. Without a Spirit Root, one cannot even begin cultivation. Those possessing one can indeed proceed,” Zhao Feng noted. “The mortal kingdoms of the Earth Immortal Realm are populated solely by ordinary individuals. This appears…” he inferred, “…to be a deliberate stratagem by the Immortals and Buddhas. By denying ordinary people any chance to resist, they are eternally managed, like livestock.” Through the sweep of his Divine Thought, Zhao Feng gleaned the fundamental circumstances of the Kingdom of Aolai, and more broadly, the mortal kingdoms across the Eastern Continent. Prior to his arrival in the Earth Immortal Realm, Zhao Feng had envisioned a world teeming with Immortals and Cultivators. However, the reality proved vastly different. “The initial phase of reforming the Immortal Realm and reshaping this world commences with the Kingdom of Aolai. However, there is no necessity for the Mystic Armor Army to conquer a mere mortal kingdom; they shall continue their cultivation within the Minor World. For this initial endeavor, only the ordinary Elite Soldiers of Qin are required.” Zhao Feng’s decision was instantaneous. He then descended just outside Coastal City. With a casual gesture, he summoned, “Daqin Elite Soldiers, appear!” Utilizing his Divine Thought, Zhao Feng directly dispatched one hundred thousand Elite Soldiers from the Minor World. These were not the Mystic Armor Army, but the standard Elite Soldiers who had been cultivating in the Minor World, sworn to Wu’an, with Wei Quan as their chief general. Instantly, an overwhelming killing intent blanketed the entire East Sea coast. On the city walls, local soldiers and citizens watched in stunned bewilderment. “What is happening?” “Where did this army emerge from?” “What shall we do?” … The sudden materialization of this formidable army threw Coastal City into utter shock, swiftly followed by a chilling wave of fear. “Henceforth, upon entering the Immortal Realm, all soldiers shall operate under the banner of the Wu Country, refraining from using the name Qin,” Zhao Feng transmitted via Divine Thought to the assembled fifty thousand Elite Soldiers. “All Elite Soldiers must remember this.” “We obey Your Highness’s command,” the soldiers responded in unison. The deliberate avoidance of the Qin name was strategic, allowing for covert development. Revealing the Qin identity prematurely would certainly attract the attention of the Heavenly Court, marking them as an immediate target. While Zhao Feng’s grand campaign would eventually draw the Heavenly Court’s notice, delaying that confrontation would afford him time to grow in secret and accumulate greater Qi Fortune. “Annihilate this nation. Those who surrender shall be spared,” Zhao Feng declared, issuing his command. “Obey the command,” Wei Quan roared in response. Then, drawing the sword from his waist, he pointed towards Coastal City, whose gates hadn't even had time to fully close. “Warriors of Wu,” Wei Quan commanded, “Attack!” With that single order, the fifty thousand Elite Soldiers, each possessing at least the power of the Divine Power Realm, surged towards Coastal City.

"Don't kill me."

"I surrender."

"Spare me..."

As Daqin's Elite Soldiers neared the city, resistance vanished; the soldiers of Aolai in Coastal City swiftly discarded their weapons and dropped to their knees in submission.

The surrounding citizens followed suit.

"Your Highness."

"Why are the nations in the Immortal Realm so feeble?"

"They surrendered without even a fight?"

When the army marched directly into the city and seized control of Coastal City, Wei Quan gazed at Zhao Feng, his expression etched with bewilderment.

Clearly.

He had anticipated a fierce confrontation.

Yet, the outcome was a complete lack of battle; wherever the army advanced, the nations of the Immortal Realm simply surrendered without opposition.

This outcome utterly defied Wei Quan's expectations.

"Do not assume the Immortal Realm is teeming with Immortals," Zhao Feng explained.

"It is evident that the nations of the Immortal Realm, along with their Cultivators, have fallen under the dominion of Immortals and Gods."

"These divine beings have little need for numerous Cultivators, nor do they require them to deplete the Spiritual Qi of the heavens and earth, and certainly, they possess no desire for them to mount a resistance."

"That is the crux of the matter."

Zhao Feng offered a faint smile.

The reason a nation, boasting millions of citizens, lacks any Cultivators and finds its strength inferior to that of the mortal Qin citizens is entirely due to the control exerted by Immortals and Buddhas.

"Wouldn't it be a simple matter for Qin to conquer the mortal kingdoms of the Immortal Realm?" Wei Quan's eyes brightened, and he inquired with a grin.

"I shall grant you one hundred thousand troops."

"Proceed to capture the Kingdom of Aolai with all haste."

"Adhere strictly to Qin's military laws as before: those who surrender shall be spared, and the civilians will remain unharmed," Zhao Feng commanded with a deep tone.

"Rest assured, Your Highness."

"I understand."

Wei Quan acknowledged the order promptly.
