Mu State, Dayin Palace.

As the palace of Ji Zhaoyang, the third prince of Dayin, Dayin Palace is not luxurious and is far from being comparable to the Muwang Palace which has been expanded several times in more than ten years.

But almost all the powerful people in the upper echelons of the Mu Kingdom knew that this seemingly ordinary palace controlled the entire Mu Kingdom and even the trend of the entire world.

The army, court, finances, and people's livelihood of the Mu State were all controlled by Dayin Palace.

Although King Mu was nominally the ruler of the entire country, Ji Zhaoyang was the third prince of Dayin who was given the title of King Mu. The current prosperous human destiny and the territory that occupied most of the world were all created by Ji Zhaoyang alone.

If there was no Ji Zhaoyang, King Mu would at best be just a ruler who defended the status quo of the original Mu Kingdom.

Although Ji Zhaoyang held great power, he still showed enough respect to King Mu, and even put the crucial humanitarian destiny under the control of King Mu in order to appease King Mu's heart.

Because he knew very well that he was just a passer-by here.

Once the monster is dealt with, he will return to Dayin, and then King Mu will be the true master of humanity who rules the world.

In this simple Dayin Palace, Ji Zhaoyang sat on the throne, constantly reading the memorials presented below.

More than ten years have not changed his appearance at all. For a successful spiritual master, a mere ten years is just a period of seclusion.

As Ji Zhaoyang glanced at the news on the memorial, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.

"A demon at the level of incarnation appeared in Yu Country. The ruler of Yu Country joined forces with the demon to kill 3,000 soldiers of Mu Country and captured three cities overnight."

"The capital of Wu State turned into a dead zone overnight. The general of Mu State led a thousand soldiers to investigate, but they disappeared on the battlefield and are nowhere to be found."

"The ruler of Ao State abandoned its neutral status, ordered the execution of the envoy of Baku State, and mobilized the entire country to declare war on Baku State on the same day."

Among the dozens of memorials submitted during these few days, there was not a single piece of good news.

Putting the memorial down casually, Ji Zhaoyang couldn't help rubbing his eyebrows, and his eyes subconsciously looked at the sun hanging high in the clear sky.

"Has that monster finally started to fight back?"

Ji Zhaoyang let out a light sigh, but he had already expected this result in his heart.

During the first ten years after arriving in this world, he sat in the Mu Kingdom to gather the destiny of humanity, promulgated laws, and passed down spells and talismans to accumulate strength for the Mu Kingdom.

When the ten-year period was up, Ji Zhaoyang defeated ten countries in one day and became famous throughout the world.

Afterwards, Ji Zhaoyang used the trend of humanity to swallow up hundreds of countries. Most of the countries were either intimidated by the power of the Mu State or admired the trend of humanity and integrated into the Mu State, making the Mu State the strongest country in the world.

In just over ten years, except for a few small marginal countries that were still resisting, the Mu Kingdom almost unified the entire world.

Wherever the good fortune of humanity reaches, dusk retreats.

But just a few months ago, Ji Zhaoyang, who was in control of the human trend, suddenly felt an inexplicable crisis in his heart. Then the small marginal countries that had not yet been unified began to raise the banner of anti-Maku and gathered a large number of demons to fight against the Mu army.

The small countries that had originally surrendered to the Mu State also began to fight back. Ji Zhaoyang's layouts all over the world were destroyed, and the situation that was about to be unified began to show signs of collapse.

After investigating from all sides, Ji Zhaoyang finally set his sights on the terrifying monster above the sky.

He wanted to use the trend of humanity to establish the order of heaven and earth, which attracted the attention of monsters, and the monsters began to use the trend of heaven and earth to suppress the destiny of humanity.

Those small countries that joined forces with demons to rebel are nothing more than pawns in the great trend of heaven and earth.

Ji Zhaoyang glanced at the names of the countries on the memorials, stood up from the throne, walked to the map hanging in the hall, frowned slightly and said to himself:

"That monster is mobilizing more and more forces of heaven and earth. It seems that we should make a decision before the monster completely gathers the forces."

Thinking of this, Ji Zhaoyang's brows relaxed a little.

After more than ten years of planning, Ji Zhaoyang naturally thought about the consequences of monsters taking advantage of the situation of heaven and earth to suppress the destiny of humanity, so he had secretly prepared corresponding methods to break the impasse.

The way to break the impasse is to follow the example of the ancient Emperor Qin Shi Huang and issue a decree on the same writing system and the same wheel gauge in the name of the King of Mu within the Mu State.

Once this decree is issued, it will be able to completely integrate the destiny of the people of hundreds of countries into one, thereby overturning the trend of the world set by the monsters.

By then, we will definitely be able to see a glimpse of hope in this world where demons are rampant.

After calming down his mind, Ji Zhaoyang prepared to find an opportunity to visit King Mu in the palace and establish this law.

At this moment, a white-faced, beardless waiter came outside the hall, bowed to Ji Zhaoyang, and then spoke in a shrill voice:

"Prince Mu invites His Royal Highness the Third Prince to the palace for a chat!"

Ji Zhaoyang raised his eyebrows slightly, somewhat surprised that King Mu took the initiative to invite him.

However, he happened to have something important to discuss, so he nodded and agreed to the envoy.

"I'll be there in a moment."

A moment later, Ji Zhaoyang stepped into the palace.

The King Mu's palace has been expanded several times in the past ten years. It is no longer the brick and stone fortress it used to be, but in Ji Zhaoyang's eyes it is still not worth mentioning, so he walked straight to the hall.

Inside the palace hall, the surrounding guards and waiters had all retreated, leaving the magnificent hall looking empty and cold.

Behind the falling pearl curtain, there was only the figure of King Mu sitting on the throne, looking at Ji Zhaoyang who stepped into this place.

Ji Zhaoyang looked at the King on the throne, bowed slightly, and was about to speak when he heard the King speak first:

"Your Highness, Third Prince, I have heard that things are not going well in the Mu Kingdom these days."

Ji Zhaoyang was a little surprised. King Mu never asked about state affairs before, but today he took the initiative to mention it.

"It is true that some small countries under the rule of the Baku Kingdom have joined forces with demons to launch a rebellion, but these things are just minor issues. I am entering the palace today to discuss a major matter with the King of Baku."

Before Ji Zhaoyang could finish his words, he was interrupted by King Mu.

"Is it just a small matter in the eyes of His Royal Highness the Third Prince that our Mu Kingdom lost thousands of soldiers and five cities?"

There was a hint of questioning in the King's words.

Ji Zhaoyang's eyes narrowed: "What does King Mu mean?"

King Mu coughed lightly, and a white-faced, beardless waiter came out from the side door of the hall, holding the imperial edict in his hand, and said in a shrill voice:

"Your Highness the Third Prince was greedy for merit and acted rashly, causing our Mu Kingdom to lose five cities, and the good situation was almost ruined.

From now on, all memorials will no longer be submitted to Dayin Palace, and all officials will hold morning court meetings in the main hall of the imperial palace."

After the imperial edict was read, there was a sound of orderly weapons colliding, and more than 800 warriors in armor gathered outside the imperial palace.

These warriors all have the cultivation level of Qi Transformation. Their Qi is connected into a military formation and assisted by the luck of humanity, so they can confront the great monks of Shenhua head-on.

Outside the main hall, several Yin-Yang Masters wearing hunting robes have entered the place, all of them have impressive Qi Refining skills.

The eunuch looked down at Ji Zhaoyang and said with a cold smile:

"Your Highness, please hand over the military amulet and seal."

Ji Zhaoyang was silent. He did not respond to the eunuch and did not even care about these armored warriors and great Onmyoji.

Ji Zhaoyang just looked at the figure on the throne and said softly:

"Is this the decision of the King of Mu?" "How dare you! How can you question the King of Mu casually?"

The eunuch's voice was sharp and rebuking, but the next moment, the pair of majestic eyes looked at him.

It was as if the light of the sun was descending from those eyes, burning his body and soul to ashes in an instant.

As the chief steward of the shogunate, he couldn't even mobilize his magical powers and turned into ashes in an instant.

After Ji Zhaoyang walked towards the bead curtain, eight hundred armored warriors behind him mobilized the army formation, and several great Onmyoji summoned Shikigami.

But as Ji Zhaoyang took a step forward, the exciting magic power spread from his body. The magic power of the powerful spirit cultivator easily defeated all the defensive measures, and his body dissolved and disappeared in the magic power.

In the past ten years, he has advanced to the late stage of spirit refining, and he can kill everyone present with just a thought.

The so-called military formations and Yin-Yang techniques are nothing in front of him. He himself is the strongest in the Mu Kingdom.

After all the people were cleared out, Ji Zhaoyang walked towards the bead curtain and lifted it.

But when he saw the figure behind the bead curtain, he couldn't help but be stunned.

King Mu was sitting on the throne wearing a yellow-dyed imperial robe. His original human face had turned into a strange red face with a long nose. A pair of black wings hung down behind him. He held a round fan in his hand and looked down at Ji Zhaoyang.

In King Mu's body, Ji Zhaoyang could clearly sense a large amount of human luck mixed with demonic energy, making him a strange creature that was a fusion of human, demon, and king.

"You abandoned your human identity and chose to join that monster?"

Ji Zhaoyang asked with a somewhat dry voice.

"Abandoning my human identity? No, no, no, I just found myself again!"

There was a frightening madness in the King's words, and a bright smile on his red face.

Ji Zhaoyang's eyes were filled with anger. Behind him, a huge image of the Yang God appeared between heaven and earth, intimidating all living beings. The entire palace seemed to be transformed into a ball of fire under the will of the Yang God:

“You are the Lord of the Mu Kingdom!

He is the king who controls the destiny of humanity, yet he abandoned his human body and became a demon. He is the first hopeless fool! "

"Lord of the Mu Kingdom? You still know that I am the Lord of the Mu Kingdom?"

King Mu had a crazy smile on his face, and the powerful aura that was a fusion of human destiny and demonic energy was almost as powerful as Ji Zhaoyang.

"You, the Third Prince Dayin, control all the armies of the Mu Kingdom. All officials and nobles look up to you as their leader, and the common people are spreading the news that the Third Prince was conferred the title of King of Mu.

I only have the title of Lord of Mu State, but I have no real power. What is the meaning of such a position of Lord?"

Ji Zhaoyang was furious: "I told you several years ago that I would return to Dayin after I defeated the monster and pacified the world."

"Return to Dayin? Your words sound good, but who can give up the powerful power that can rule the world with a single word?"

King Mu didn't believe Ji Zhaoyang's words at all.

He grew up among hundreds of countries, and all he could see was the hundreds of countries.

Being the former ruler of a country was enough to attract countless people, not to mention establishing an unprecedentedly powerful country after unifying hundreds of countries. This was a feat that had never been seen in the history of this world.

He didn't believe that Ji Zhaoyang would willingly give up this supreme power.

However, King Mu did not notice that the look in Ji Zhaoyang's eyes when he looked at him had changed from anger to pity for the frog in the well.

The next moment, the powerful force at the peak of the spirit refining realm destroyed everything in the palace in an instant.

The roar of King Mu spread throughout the capital.

"From today on, Mu State is no longer a vassal state of Dayin."

"Da Yin is the emperor of men, and I am the emperor of heaven! The king of demons!"

"My name is, Great Tengu!"

In an instant, the eyes of dusk fell on the earth, and the great Tengu, which gathered the luck of humans and demons, instantly crossed the gate to the peak of spirit refining and entered the realm of void refining.

At the same time, the ancestral home of Shintoism.

As the birthplace of Onmyoji, the ancestral temple of Shintoism enshrines two great heavenly masters who created the Onmyoji practice method.

In Shintoism, Onmyoji and believers all worship the Heavenly Master and spread the faith.

However, it is unknown since when, Onmyoji discovered that worshipping demons as gods could eliminate the demons' hostility and transform them into Shikigami.

At first, orthodox Onmyojis rejected this practice, believing it to be a blasphemy against the Heavenly Master.

However, as some Onmyoji gained powerful Shikigami by worshipping demons, more and more Onmyoji began to worship demons.

They built shrines for demons and invited them into the shrines, using incense to dispel their hostility and refine them into gods.

In order to dispel people's fear, Onmyoji claimed that there were eight million gods between heaven and earth, and all things could become gods.

While the two Heavenly Masters were in seclusion to digest the power of incense and faith, those demons and gods were openly placed in the ancestral hall.

The demon that is most worshipped by all Onmyoji is a white fox with nine tails. This white fox has a powerful strength comparable to that of a Heavenly Master, and even the Heavenly Master finds it difficult to subdue it.

So the Onmyojis came up with the idea of ​​inviting the white fox into the shrine to worship it as a deity, in order to find an opportunity to refine the white fox into a shikigami.

The shogunate's capital collapsed and Daitengu proclaimed himself emperor.

On this day, eight million gods from the Shinto ancestral temple came out in droves and occupied the Shinto ancestral temple.

A woman with an extremely beautiful face and nine fox tails behind her showed up at the place where the Heavenly Master was in seclusion, and she took over the efforts of eight million gods and the power of heaven and earth to suppress the two Heavenly Masters.

Afterwards, the charming voice resounded throughout Shintoism.

"My name is Tamamonomae!"

Isolated in the mountains of Dajiang.

Dong Youzi founded Dajiang Mountain to suppress the demons in this world and establish order among the demons.

There is only one order for demons, and that is strength is everything!

As long as he has enough power, Dong Youzi can be worshipped as the king of all ghosts, in charge of Dajiang Mountain and command everything, making the demons in the world dare not do evil.

However, success is due to strength, and failure is also due to strength.

More than ten years later, Dong Youzi finally met a challenger, a young monster with sharp horns on his head and a wine gourd on his back.

He was born from the fate of suppressed demons, and inherited the trend of heaven and earth from the Eyes of Dusk. In just over ten years, he reached the peak realm of spirit refining.

During the war, he was blessed by heaven and earth and successfully broke through the state of returning to emptiness, defeated Dong Youzi, and became the new Ghost King of Dajiang Mountain.

"My name is Shuten-doji!"

On this day, the dusk eyes in the sky, which had dimmed a bit, regained their light, and hundreds of ghosts reappeared between heaven and earth.

On this day, Shen Yuan was still working hard under the tree.
