Cao Ya's eyes contained the laws of nature, and divine light flowed within them. From Mount Hua to Xianyang, even though the area was vast and spanned hundreds of millions of miles due to the presence of the Earthly Immortal Realm, he could still see everything clearly.

"I wonder if Qin's system will change? If it isn't reformed in time..."

Cao Ya pondered that after being utterly defeated by Wei, and even facing the threat of national annihilation, Qin made a firm decision to reform and strengthen itself. Subsequent rulers continued this strategy, unlike other states where policies ended with the death of the ruler. However, different national circumstances necessitate different strategies.

Many of the rules established during the conquest of the world became inappropriate after the unification of the empire.

Most ordinary people just want a peaceful life. They risk their lives every day, not knowing when they might die... Compared to other countries, it's even worse, with no way to get ahead. But here, there is still a path, however dangerous. With no other choice, the people grit their teeth and accept it, hoping to earn a title and a place for their families on the battlefield.

However, after unification, the territories of the former feudal lords all came under the control of the Qin Dynasty.

Although there are still formidable enemies in the northern and western regions of Jambudvipa, there is still a chance to gain military merit.

However, there must be other avenues for advancement so that people can have days of peace.

It should be understood that with the support of colleagues in the past, even the worst strategy is better than no strategy at all.

Now, the whole world is Qin people. Regardless of whether they identify with Qin in their hearts, they have no one to compare themselves to. Whether the Qin court alone can meet the expectations of the people is of paramount importance.

Otherwise, the slightest unrest would sweep across the land, bring calamity to the people, and overthrow the Qin court.

"The current King of Qin is a great ruler, and he cannot be unaware of this problem."

"Unfortunately, the old aristocratic group of Qin was completely suppressed by the military merit group after the reforms."

"With the fall of the six kingdoms, the military merit group reached its zenith and peak!"

"It will not be easy for the King of Qin to make changes; he must balance the interests of all parties."

Cao Ya watched intently, wondering if this King Qin of the Immortal Realm, with his great ambition and talent, might alter the timeline.

Beside him stood Yang Chan, Yang Jian, the Great Emperor of the North Pole, and Marshal Tianpeng. Although they were unaware of the "old stories" of the Qin Dynasty, they had all witnessed the turbulent events within Xianyang City.

At this moment, King Qin, dressed in a black robe and with a long sword at his waist, stepped out of the palace amidst the watchful eyes of the crowd... well, now it should be called the imperial palace.

Old Qin people, new Qin people, old nobles, military nobles, commoners, as well as cultivators from all walks of life, and even immortals, gods, Buddhas, demons, ghosts, etc., whether in the capital or outside the city, regardless of their attitude, all were curious, and countless eyes were fixed on this incomparably majestic King of Qin!

What strange changes will occur when a king is crowned "emperor"?

"Hoo." The King of Qin ascended the high platform. No one crowned him; he bestowed the title upon himself.

"The First Emperor!" the Qin people shouted, their voices shaking the heavens.

"Boom!" At this moment, the human destiny surged and tumbled down, covering the King of Qin.

Amidst the horrified gazes of the immortals and demons, the Qin King, now known as the "First Emperor," experienced a rapid ascent in his aura, leaping from the peak of Quasi-Saint to break through the gate of Weak Primordial Chaos, becoming an unconventional Saint!

"How did the First Emperor of Qin suddenly become a weak Hunyuan?!"

Many immortals and demons were dumbfounded. Was this step so easy to cross? The number of quasi-saints stuck was far more than three digits!

Putting aside other matters, the Fire Cloud Cave originally only had the Three Sovereigns, who were weak Hunyuan, and the Five Emperors, who were all stuck at the peak of Quasi-Saint. That one step was like an insurmountable chasm.

Many powerful figures, such as those from the Heavenly Court, the Underworld, Mount Ling, the Jie Sect, the Chan Sect, and the Demonic Sect, blocked the gates of weak Hunyuan cultivators.

As a result, the King of Qin, who crowned himself "Emperor," actually obtained the Weak Hunyuan Realm first!

At this moment, multiple gazes were directed towards Nanzhanbuzhou from places such as Da Chitian, Da Luotian, Yu Yutian, the Blissful World, the Netherworld, and Beiju Luzhou.

In the Fire Cloud Cave of the Eastern Continent, the laws of the Three Emperors Daoist permeated the Immortal Realm, deterring powerful enemies.

The attitude of Hunyuan in Nuwa Heaven and Da Chitian Heaven was similar.

Because of the unexpected birth of the "First Emperor," his breakthrough was extremely rapid and could not be stopped.

Most importantly, as an emperor, his strength is closely related to the nation's power.

As long as the Qin Dynasty stands, the First Emperor can stabilize the weak, primordial state of Dao.

In the future, if the Qin army can sweep across the northern and western parts of the Southern Continent, set foot in the Eastern Continent, the Western Continent, and the Northern Continent, or even break into the Immortal Realm... touching the Holy Realm is not impossible.

The number of powerful individuals who were once feared was increasing.

In an instant, countless schemes arose in his mind, plotting to bury Qin Shi Huang alive and severely damage the human race.

Even the Jade Emperor of Heaven looked displeased.

Humanity flourished, which in turn nourished the Way of Heaven, and the Dao Ancestor Hongjun became even more powerful.

However, he was no longer Hongjun Tongzi. After the destruction of the Demon Court, he was ordered to establish the Heavenly Court.

As a weak Primordial Being, the Jade Emperor's position was inherently unstable, and he relied entirely on the support of the Dao Ancestor.

Now, in the Qin Dynasty of the Earthly Immortal Realm, there is another "First Emperor" of the same rank...

The Qin court has already become a threat to his Heavenly Court, something that the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties, as well as many hegemons of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, could not achieve.

"We must suppress the human race...and make appropriate concessions to the immortals and gods of the Jie Sect..."

The Jade Emperor's face was very grim. He had originally planned to balance the two forces in their conflict, but all his schemes had come to naught.

He neither wanted the human race to grow stronger, nor was he willing to relinquish the benefits to the immortals and gods of the Jie Sect.

He was wary of both sides and also hostile towards them.

Very few of the immortals of the Chan Sect entered the Heavenly Court, and none of them were particularly powerful figures; they simply couldn't be promoted.

Yang Jian is qualified... but he is also a human, how could he betray us?

The fact that Guanjiangkou obeyed orders but not summons was a constant headache for the Jade Emperor.

The Great Luo Heaven of the Primordial Celestial Venerable is at an infinitely high place; how could the Jade Emperor dare to go too far?

In the vast Heavenly Court, apart from the Jade Emperor, figures such as the Queen Mother of the West, the Golden Spirit Mother, and the Taiyi Heavenly Venerable, noticed the commotion in the Southern Continent of the Earthly Immortal Realm, but their reactions varied.

But in the end, they all looked towards the Lingxiao Palace without prior arrangement.

The one who should have the biggest headache isn't them, but the Jade Emperor!

"The Qin Emperor is no less powerful than the Jade Emperor of Heaven... Heh, a Grand Celestial Venerable? He's not even at the Saint Realm. What qualifications does he have to rule the Three Realms and the countless lower realms?"

"A weak Primordial Chaos Realm cultivator is indeed powerful, but to achieve this, one must be at the Saint Realm!"

Inside the Dou Mansion, the Golden Spirit Mother wore a cold smile, wishing nothing more than for the Jade Emperor's throne to become unstable.

In the Immortal Realm, at Mount Hua, inside the Temple of the Three Holy Mothers, everyone laughed.

"King Qin... no, he should now be called 'First Emperor,' truly a great ruler of unparalleled power!"

Although the Emperor of the North Pole Ziwei was a member of the royal family of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and was ultimately destroyed by the Qin State, he was still filled with admiration upon witnessing this scene.

Furthermore, the Zhou dynasty was corrupt and, in the eyes of the Northern Purple Star Emperor, should have been replaced long ago.

His vision extends beyond a single dynasty; it encompasses the entire Immortal Realm.

“A weak Hunyuan, sitting in the Qin court, can intimidate all sides.” Yang Jian nodded.

He pondered that since he had obtained that peculiar green leaf, his enlightenment had accelerated and his cultivation had improved extremely quickly.

However, at the weak Hunyuan realm, half of his body had already broken free of the cage and was about to escape the chessboard.

Achieving this is no easy feat. The ninth level of Quasi-Saint may seem like just one step away, but in reality, it's as different as heaven and earth.

It can only be said that the fate of humanity is far too terrifying.

Marshal Tianpeng gazed into the distance and couldn't help but sigh. The First Emperor's age was less than a fraction of his own, yet the difference in cultivation level... In fact, as a quasi-saint, Marshal Tianpeng was by no means inferior.

"When Haojing fell, who could have imagined that the newly enfeoffed Qin state would be able to unify the Southern Continent?"

Yang Chan sighed. She had witnessed the rise, fall, and resurgence of the Qin state, which made her find it all the more incredible.

Nearly a million years is indeed a long time, but there are countless quasi-saints who have lived for over a hundred million years.

"They actually took this step..." Cao Ya was also surprised.

The birth of the "First Emperor" actually surpassed the Quasi-Saint realm... He thought that the eighth or ninth level of Quasi-Saint was about right.

"That sword is comparable to a second-class spiritual treasure, isn't it?" Cao Ya muttered.

In the Qin capital, atop a high platform, the First Emperor drew his sword, exuding imperial aura.

Humanity's fortune condensed and submerged the Emperor's Sword, and then an astonishing aura burst forth.

Basically, the combination of the First Emperor and the Imperial Sword is no less powerful than any weak Hunyuan in the world!

This would allow them to compete with most of the chaotic demons who survived before the creation of the world.

From then on, the name of Qin Ting spread throughout the world, and the Eastern Continent of Shenzhou, the Western Continent of Hezhou, and the Northern Continent of Julu all took notice of it.

On the planet Jidu, Cao Ya was cultivating and sighing. His situation was originally very special, but after a million years, he could no longer be considered one of the most outstanding.

Of course, this is not what Cao Ya is pursuing; what he desires is how to attain enlightenment.

"I haven't even finished my journey to becoming a Quasi-Saint with the 'Cosmic Alchemy Classic,' so there's no way I can even talk about the Weak Primordial Chaos."

Cao Ya muttered to himself, his combat strength was at the Quasi-Saint level, and he was no match for anyone.

Although his cultivation level was at the high level of Quasi-Saint, he had not yet reached the ninth level of Quasi-Saint.

"Moreover, I also lack a suitable magical artifact." Cao Ya scratched his head.

In the primordial universe, the effects of spiritual treasures are particularly prominent.

For example, Yang Chan was able to secure the position of "Third Holy Mother" in the western border of the Southern Continent within a million years. Her cultivation level, which was just entering the Quasi-Saint realm, was not useless, but it was certainly not as good as the Lotus Lantern.

The Chaos Treasure is what the surrounding evil spirits fear.

It should be noted that this first-class treasure is a weapon of Hunyuan.

Weak Primordial Realm cultivators generally use second-class spiritual treasures, while Quasi-Saints mostly use third-class spiritual treasures.

Only a very few lucky individuals can obtain a stronger spiritual treasure to recognize them as their master ahead of time.

Furthermore, almost no one dared to covet it. Take Yang Chan as an example; with the Lotus Lantern in her possession, who would dare to covet it? Throughout the world, who doesn't know that the Lotus Lantern originally belonged to Nuwa?

It is clear that the Lotus Lantern acknowledged Yang Chan's favor, and in the face of past turmoil, Nuwa simply bestowed it upon her.

“This level of spiritual treasure would be considered top-tier even in other universes.”

"For example, the divine weapon of the other shore in [Peerless One], and the immortal emperor artifact in [Sacred Ruins]."

"The Celestial Treasure of the [Stellar Transformation] Universe is only equivalent to a second-class treasure in this world, and is inferior to those at the Chaos level."

"Unfortunately, my weapon-refining skills are not very good."

"Besides, there aren't any such rare and precious materials. Even if there were, I couldn't compete with the big shots from all walks of life for them."

Cao Ya shook his head. Improving cultivation was still the most important thing. A weak Hunyuan level cultivator would definitely increase the human race's foundation more than a second-grade spiritual treasure.

Meanwhile, in the Earthly Immortal Realm, there was a group of beings above the weak Hunyuan level who secretly plotted and stirred up disaster.

Furthermore, the Qin court's strategies failed to adapt in time, and centuries later, the Qin Dynasty was riddled with problems.

The First Emperor had to make frequent tours to suppress opposing forces from all sides.

At the edge of Beiju Luzhou, demonic energy surged and monster energy billowed, and powerful laws isolated it from the Heavenly Dao.

Dozens of terrifying figures appeared here, the worst of them all being weak Mixed Yuan!

Among them are many powerful beings, including those at the Saint Realm!

"Qin Ting is beset by internal and external troubles; it should be exterminated." The Chaos Demon Worm spoke with malice.

"Perhaps, we won't even need to take action. The Three Sovereigns and the Celestial Venerable of Morality won't be able to find us here," the Chaos Demon Rabbit said calmly. The turmoil in the Qin court was caused by the remnants of the six kingdoms and by the bewitching of demons, but in the final analysis, it was still due to the improper strategy that caused resentment among the people.

"Indeed, the time when the Qin Dynasty unified the country was the most prosperous time for humanity." Donghuang Taiyi sneered, looking forward to the destruction of the Qin court and the ensuing endless war in the Southern Continent.

Without his instruction, would so many powerful demons have entered the Southern Continent?

“We still have to take action ourselves and crush the Qin court. A weak Hunyuan, if he has no external enemies to rival him, can live forever and has plenty of time to slowly adjust the national policy,” another Hunyuan said.

After a moment's thought, Demon Ancestor Rahu flipped his hand and took out a special object.

All the big shots were drawn to it.

"This is a treasure I collected during my travels through the Chaos, a fragment of an ancient Chaos Spiritual Treasure," Luo Hou said with a smile. "Although it is incomplete, it is still almost superior to the most powerful second-class spiritual treasure."

"Furthermore, it contains some of the mysteries of the Chaos Treasure and reveals the essence of Hunyuan, making it quite valuable... Hehe, normal second-grade treasures are generally not as precious as this blade."

"Whoever is willing to ambush and kill the First Emperor, this thing is yours."

"Don't worry, Hongjun, the Celestial Venerable of Morality, the Three Sovereigns..."

After a slight pause, Luo Hou added, "Even if Nuwa, Houtu, or even Yuanshi Tianzun and Lingbao Tianzun show any signs of making a move, I, Donghuang Taiyi, Chaos Demon Insect, Chaos Demon Rabbit, and many other fellow Daoists will stop them for you."

"As for the Five Emperors of Huoyun Cave, Ketu Star Lord, the Great Emperor of the North Pole Ziwei, Erlang Shen, etc..."

“Other weaker mixed elements will intercept you.”

"So, who dares to go?"

Luo Hou looked around. Hunyuan was not tempted. He also considered the saints who seemed to be on the side of the human race. They needed to confront each other and could not be distracted. They also could not go south to assassinate the First Emperor.

Furthermore, as a sacred realm, they naturally possess a sense of pride.

Even a weak Hunyuan, though barely worthy of his attention, would never consider him a worthy opponent.

The First Emperor should send other weaker Hunyuan to ambush and kill them.

However, among the dozens of powerful individuals, not many were truly interested.

After all, the First Emperor was very powerful, and the fortunes of the Qin court had not completely declined.

That imperial sword is something everyone fears.

It is no exaggeration to say that an ordinary weak Hunyuan was no match for the First Emperor.

Only a powerful figure who is already formidable, and who also receives a fragment of a first-class spiritual treasure from Luo Hou, would be confident in suppressing and killing the First Emperor of Qin.

The Chaos Scorpion, the Chaos Serpent, and the Chaos Spider all had slightly flickering eyes, showing some interest but also some concerns.

What if the First Emperor turns against us and kills us...?

This is not just idle worry; the First Emperor was capable of such things.

"I'm willing to go!"

Just then, a colossal, multi-million-mile-long, scaled dragon suddenly shrank in size, stood upright, and its icy dragon eyes looked at Rahu.
