Three days later, the news that Lin Caogen was the Asura God descended to earth spread like wildfire!
People from hundreds of miles around Lin'an flocked to the city to pray for protection!
Lin'an City was overcrowded in no time. Lin Caogen had no choice but to order the demolition of the city walls to build houses for the people and to expand the area of Lin'an City a hundredfold, extending it towards the coast.
If the demolition of the city wall had occurred in any dynasty, it would have been an act of idiocy!
However, Lin Caogen is a god descended from heaven, so he doesn't need city walls to guard the city at all!
The Great Khan Kublai Khan, far away in the north, received a personal letter from his younger brother Kublai Bulge, followed by letters of surrender from his uncle Tolui and the Mongol archer Jebe!
Kublai Khan was furious and smashed the table over, spilling tea all over the floor!
At this moment, the Imperial Preceptor Qiu Chuji shook his whisk and said, "Why is the Great Khan so furious? Does he not know the principle that every instance of rage reduces one's lifespan by a year?"
Kublai Khan took a sip of wine to calm himself down and said, "My own brother and uncle, including the sharpshooter Jebe, all wanted me to pledge allegiance to this Lin Xianren! Now they have all rebelled, with hundreds of thousands of troops occupying Lin'an City, and the surrounding people are flocking to respond. In just over ten days, Lin'an City has expanded to a size of one circumference, with a population of one million, making it the largest city in the Central Plains today!"
"What?"
Grand Master Qiu Chuji was completely baffled!
"Is that so? Great Khan, do not be hasty! In my humble opinion, why don't I go to Lin'an City myself to see what has happened before making a decision?"
Kublai Khan nodded and said, "Excellent! I have been very anxious about this matter! Grand Preceptor, let us depart now!"
At this time, Lin Caogen had already declared himself emperor in Lin'an City and established the Ming Dynasty, named after the meaning of light!
Kublai Khan was appointed Left Chancellor, Zhu Chongba was appointed Right Chancellor, and Bai Zhi was appointed Empress; the investiture ceremony was to be held on a chosen date. Xu Da, Tang He, Lan Yu, and others were appointed generals, each leading 20,000 troops!
Lin Caogen ordered his soldiers to collect herbs and personally refined a batch of strengthening pills to be given to hundreds of thousands of soldiers!
After all the soldiers took the pills, their strength, speed, and agility doubled, making them capable of taking on ten enemies at once!
The 130,000 troops defending Lin'an were comparable to an army of 1.3 million!
Afterwards, Lin Caogen ordered Lin'an to be renamed Guangming City and all his troops to be renamed Guangming Army!
In just one month, Bright City has undergone tremendous changes!
Lin Caogen wrote books and spread his teachings. Soon he organized talented people to build water conservancy projects, organized miners to mine surrounding coal, steel, oil and other resources, organized blacksmiths to manufacture generators and build hydroelectric power plants, ordered capable people to promote commerce, established 12 years of compulsory education in Guangming City, and set up scientific research institutions!
After arriving in Guangming City, Qiu Chuji lingered there, unwilling to leave, and stayed for a full six months before returning to report to the Great Khan Kublai Khan!
"Great Khan, I have been in Bright City for half a year, and the development of Bright City is simply unbelievable! When I returned, Bright City had already gathered 5 million people! The army had 200,000 men! What is most terrifying is that each of the garrison troops in Bright City can take on ten men! The city is now well-equipped and well-supplied, and the people all live in reinforced concrete houses! These houses are impregnable!"
Kublai Khan said urgently, "Grand Preceptor! I still have more than 600,000 troops in the country. Is there really no possibility of resistance?"
Qiu Chuji smiled bitterly: "Absolutely impossible! The ruler of the Bright Kingdom, Lin Caogen, is a descended Asura God. Although I have never seen him, I have heard of his miracles. Moreover, the 200,000 soldiers in the Bright Kingdom are not only capable of fighting ten men each, but they are also all equipped with muskets and bayonets! In close combat, they can indeed fight ten men each, but in long-range combat, once the muskets are fired, our soldiers will be killed five hundred meters away!"
Upon hearing Qiu Chuji's description, Kublai Khan knew that his cause was doomed and he could not muster the slightest thought of resistance!
"Issue the order! Go to the Kingdom of Light in three days to plead guilty! I surrender! Bring Princess Chaoyang with you and present her to the King of Light for his enjoyment!"
A month later, the Emperor of the Great Yuan Dynasty personally went to Bright City to apologize with a bundle of thorns on his back!
Princess Chaoyang, Ulansuna, stared at the City of Light before her with an incredulous expression!
This Bright City had no city walls. Inside the city, there were more than a dozen tall buildings, each a hundred meters high, and the rest of the houses were three-story villas!
The city was filled with the sounds of birds and the fragrance of flowers. Children were going to school with their backpacks on their backs, and there were even bicycles on the road. Street vendors were selling a wide variety of goods. The city was bustling and prosperous!
This is no ordinary city; it's heaven!
Ulansuna looked at Bright City with a burning desire! She wanted to marry the King of Brightness and stay here!
However, the Great Khan Kublai Khan himself came to surrender, but the Lord of the Bright Kingdom, Lin Caogen, was not in the city!
After arranging all the matters in the city, he went to the Five Mountains Sword Sect!
After all, the Heavenly Tribulation will arrive in a thousand years. When this Heavenly Tribulation comes, Earth may not be able to escape it. If we encounter a world-ending war, Earthlings will not have the strength to protect themselves!
Therefore, Lin Caogen's development path is to simultaneously pursue technology and cultivation!
Because Earth is located in the most remote part of the universe, where there is a lack of celestial energy, it is almost impossible for mortals to cultivate. So Lin Caogen came up with a solution!
First, instill the concept of immortality cultivation in Earthlings, let them cultivate first, then promote technological development, strengthen military power, and at the same time, artificially synthesize immortal energy! This is the most important thing!
As long as immortal energy can be artificially created on Earth, mortals can cultivate. With the talent of the human race on Earth, as long as there is a continuous supply of immortal energy, it is possible to achieve the goal of everyone becoming an immortal saint or immortal emperor! Once that day comes, what is there to fear from the mere divine realm?
