"..."
Zhong Shenxiu was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with excitement, as if he had met a wise ruler. He knelt down before Li Jing and said with tears of gratitude, "Your Majesty, I thank you for your trust. I am willing to serve Your Majesty with all my heart and soul until my dying breath!"
Boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the connection with the Investiture of the Gods of the Primordial Dynasty. Without hesitation, he split his primordial spirit and entered the Investiture of the Gods.
Although Zhong Shenxiu's cultivation level was at the Innate Realm, he had not yet developed a primordial spirit.
However, the primordial spirit itself is formed from the soul, and as the treasure of the Primordial Dynasty, it has the function of dividing the soul.
Even an ordinary person who doesn't practice martial arts can still be included in the Investiture of the Gods as long as they become one of the civil and military officials of the Taichu Dynasty.
After Zhong Shenxiu entered the Investiture of the Gods, he felt that he had condensed a divine image within the Investiture of the Gods, and an immense power of fortune was converging on this divine image.
As the Minister of Personnel, a third-rank official, he already stood at the forefront of the Investiture of the Gods. In the entire Taichu Dynasty, few could match the power of destiny bestowed upon him.
With the blessing of this power of fortune, Zhong Shenxiu felt as if his martial arts talent and aptitude had undergone a complete transformation. His cultivation level broke through from the Lesser Completion of the Innate Realm to the Lesser Completion of the Golden Core Realm. It would not be an exaggeration to call it a meteoric rise.
Having reached the minor completion stage of the Golden Core realm, Zhong Shenxiu's hair and beard began to turn from white to black, transforming him from a nearly ninety-year-old man into a vigorous middle-aged man.
After regaining his youth, Zhong Shenxiu felt that he was in better condition than ever before, even better than when he was young.
After all, when he was young, Zhong Shenxiu was just an ordinary person, but now he is a cultivator who has reached the minor completion of the Golden Core Realm!
Li Jing and Nangong Qingyue were not too surprised to witness Zhong Shenxiu regain his youth, because they both knew what kind of great changes would occur after receiving the power of the Taichu Dynasty's fortune.
Zhong Tian's eyes went completely glazed over.
My father was just appointed Minister of Personnel by His Majesty, and he looks decades younger. Is this the power of the Dynasty of Destiny?
"No need for such formalities."
Li Jing waved his hand and said to Zhong Shenxiu.
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
Zhong Shenxiu took a deep breath to calm his excitement and slowly stood up.
"Zhong Shenxiu, what do you think it will take for my Primordial Dynasty to conquer the entire Burial Ground of Immortals?"
Li Jing looked at Zhong Shenxiu with a calm expression and said.
"Your Majesty, I believe that it should be after the first imperial examination of our Taichu Dynasty."
Zhong Shenxiu pondered for a moment and said, "Our Taichu Dynasty has only recently been established and lacks a large number of civil and military officials."
Even if we conquer each mortal dynasty, we can obtain a number of qualified and useful civil and military officials from that mortal dynasty for our Primordial Dynasty to use.
It's still not enough.
However, after this imperial examination, our Taichu Dynasty will at least not lack middle and lower-level officials.
Then we can begin to use our power and strength to directly intimidate the major mortal dynasties and take over the entire Burial Ground of Immortals as quickly as possible.
After conquering all the major mortal dynasties in the Burial Land of Immortals, our Taichu Dynasty's next target is the sects!
We can deter any sects without a bad record and make them serve our Primordial Dynasty.
Any sect with a history of misconduct will be utterly crushed!
"It seems you already have an idea."
Li Jing gave Zhong Shenxiu a deep look and said.
Zhong Shenxiu's words were almost identical to his own thoughts.
Taking over the entire Burial Ground of Immortals is nothing to a mortal dynasty; with the current strength of the Primordial Dynasty, it is already capable of doing so.
The only difficulty is the lack of a large number of middle and lower-level officials.
There isn't enough talent.
Even if a large number of civil and military officials could be obtained from the mortal dynasties that had submitted or been conquered, these officials were not the direct descendants of the Taichu Dynasty.
The true direct descendants must be cultivated by the Taichu Dynasty itself.
That's why the imperial examination system was established.
There's no need for power struggles or schemes.
There's absolutely no need for that; the mortal dynasties in the Burial Ground of Immortals are too weak!
They don't even have the qualifications to compete with the Primordial Dynasty!
The truly powerful dynasties that are qualified to challenge the Primordial Dynasty, those dynasties that rely on power and strategy, are all located in the Eastern Wilderness, outside the Burial Ground of Immortals!
Zhong Shenxiu shared the same attitude towards the sect.
"I am willing to share Your Majesty's burdens and relieve your difficulties!"
Zhong Shenxiu said firmly.
"Very good, from now on you will be in charge of this matter."
"My Primordial Dynasty will fully cooperate with you!"
Li Jing suddenly stood up and spoke to Zhong Shenxiu in a deep and powerful voice.
"Your humble servant obeys the decree!"
Zhong Shenxiu said solemnly.
"Zhong Shenxiu, is this your son?"
"He has good talent and aptitude. He has already broken through to the peak of the Awakening Realm at a young age. He can be a military general of my Taichu Dynasty."
Li Jing nodded slightly, looked at Zhong Tian, and said with a hint of appreciation on his face.
"Your Majesty, this is my son, Zhong Tian."
Zhong Shenxiu said respectfully.
"This humble subject, Zhong Tian, pays his respects to Your Majesty."
Zhong Tian knelt down before Li Jing and spoke with utmost respect.
"Zhong Tian, you don't need to participate in the imperial examination anymore. Go to my Imperial Guard and train with Bei Gong Wudi in the army."
Li Jing said calmly, "I'll start as a sixth-rank captain."
