"Hmph! I will definitely be the most powerful Thor!" After a while, Mount Tai said with his head held high.
Seeing his expression, Ye Chen shook his head helplessly. Although he had never tried it, he estimated that the Witch Clan probably wouldn't want to settle in the Heavenly Court.
In the ancient primordial world, the Wu tribe and the Heavenly Court had a deep-seated hatred. Although it had nothing to do with the Jade Emperor, it would probably not be an easy task to get them into the Heavenly Court. Forcibly conferring them the title of gods could very well backfire.
Moreover, the Wu tribe is naturally close to the earth. If the Heavenly Court is mostly composed of celestial immortals, then the Wu tribe are the gods of the earth. The power of the laws they possess can naturally control various elements in the mortal world, making them gods of their own, and thus they do not conflict with the immortals of the Heavenly Court.
Compared to taking over the Heavenly Court, the Wu Clan was more suited to entering the Fengdu Underworld. Although Houtu had not yet reincarnated, the Wu Clan was naturally more approachable to the ghosts of Fengdu. Many stubborn great shamans even tried to enter Fengdu City to take a look, only to be met with a humiliating defeat.
The living cannot enter Fengdu City, which is guarded by the Gate of Hell. With the current strength of the Wu Clan, it is undoubtedly a pipe dream to try to force their way in. They will have to wait until they become gods before they can break this rule and enter for a short period of time.
Moreover, many members of the Wu clan who die and enter Fengdu are more likely to take up positions in the underworld than other ghosts. Nowadays, more than half of the underworld officials in Fengdu are members of the Wu clan. Therefore, for the Wu clan, Fengdu is their best final resting place.
"Heaven, Earth, and Man! I never imagined that what I seem to lack most is the human race?" Sitting on the throne in the Lingxiao Palace, Ye Chen's gaze seemed to be able to see into the human world through the hollowed-out space in the center of the palace. Of the four continents on the Primordial Star, apart from the Wu Clan, there was no other race capable of ruling a region.
Xiniu Hezhou is a land of foreign races, and Dongsheng Shenzhou is inhabited by the Wu race. If he wants to fill a vacancy in the Heavenly Court, he can't just keep running to Taiyin Star and Taiyang Star to recruit people, can he? Besides, apart from Yue'e on Taiyin Star, there's no one on Taiyang Star. At most, he can bring over those phoenixes and dragons. As for that flock of fire crows, they're not qualified!
Therefore, Ye Chen suddenly realized that he was short of people!
"Perhaps, we should wait until the demon race grows up?" Ye Chen thought helplessly, but when he thought of the fall of the first Heavenly Court, he felt it was not appropriate. The demon race still had too many flaws, and its demonic energy was too strong, which did not match the celestial energy in the Heavenly Court.
"Forget it, let fate decide!" He shook his head helplessly, sweeping away the unrealistic thoughts in his mind, and began to think about how to confer the titles of the Moon Goddess and the Phoenix Birds, while also unlocking more celestial palaces.
Opening the Nine Heavens Cloud Map reveals that all thirty-six heavens of the Heavenly Court are marked on it. Most of these heavens are empty, with nothing in them. The so-called thirty-six palaces and seventy-two halls are basically concentrated in the lowest nine heavens. Among them, only the Mi Luo Palace of the Great Luo Heaven has been unlocked so far.
This is the location of the Lingxiao Palace, and it was the first place opened after taking over the Heavenly Court.
However, opening other heavenly palaces is not so easy. The Investiture of the Gods requires 100-200 energy points to appoint a Jade Maiden and a Heavenly Soldier, let alone a major operation like opening a palace.
Ye Chen looked at the nearby Chaohui Hall and Jieyin Hall, both of which required thousands of ability points. This meant that even if he filled up all the Heavenly Court's energy points, he could only open one hall, and he couldn't even open the Heavenly Palace.
"Tsk tsk tsk, still too poor!" He shook his head helplessly and sighed. Having been out of the trial space for so long, the magic crystals he had left were exhausted, and it wouldn't be so easy to quickly replenish his energy.
Relying solely on the Heavenly Court's self-recovery, at this rate of 10 points per day, it would probably take 10 days to confer the title of a celestial maiden and open a grand hall during the day. If its strength increases in the future, it might take one, two, ten, or even a hundred years to open a grand hall, not to mention the later Heavenly Palace and Heaven.
He glanced at it briefly and realized that, let alone the heavens, unlocking the second heavenly palace would require at least 5,000 energy points, and he would need to accumulate at least 500 days' worth.
At this rate, let alone heavenly generals, just gathering the 100,000 heavenly soldiers from mythology would take 20 million days, which adds up to 50,000 to 60,000 years. By then, he'd be long gone.
"Your Majesty, although we don't have many magic crystals left, we still have several thousand energy points. I suggest that we first appoint a group of celestial maidens and heavenly soldiers to come here, and at the same time open the second celestial palace. In this way, at least this heavenly court can start operating normally!" After calming down, Ye Xi made his suggestion.
The Heavenly Court is in dire need of reconstruction. Although all the buildings are exquisite and luxurious, and spotless, they still need to be maintained by someone. Fairy maidens will be an indispensable presence.
“We definitely need a group of people. Go back to the warehouse and take stock, and bring over all the magic crystals. We can take advantage of this time to open the Time Caves for the new lords. They probably have a lot of magic crystals stockpiled, so we can buy some!” Ye Chen nodded and said.
A large group of new lords are currently in his Time Cavern, carrying rare goods brought out from the Trial Grounds. Aren't they just a flock of lambs to the slaughter, waiting for Ye Chen to come and harvest them?
"Okay! I'll go right away!" Ye Xi nodded and quickly returned with a pile of magic crystals. After Ye Chen refined them, he appointed twenty fairy maidens and several phoenixes to come over, and at the same time opened the Hall of Court Assembly and the Hall of Reception.
The Hall of Court Assembly is not very useful, and even overlaps with the Hall of Pilgrimage. It is a place for immortals to rest during their court assemblies. The Hall of Reception, on the other hand, is a palace for those who descend to the mortal realm to become immortals. All newly ascended immortals will enter through this hall. However, the current energy for bestowing gods is insufficient, let alone for receiving newcomers.
The two grand halls increased the energy value that the Heavenly Court could accumulate to 3000 points, which will allow them to unlock more celestial palaces and heavenly palaces. Unfortunately, the last bit of magic crystals they had left had been used up, so they had to go to the fat man and buy them from the group of new lords.
The appearance of twenty fairy maidens and phoenixes immediately brought some life to the Lingxiao Palace. These were the strongest moon maidens, including Ye Chang, Ye Ying, and others. As they entered the Lingxiao Palace, everyone's strength increased by leaps and bounds, and all of them reached the peak of the sixth rank, no weaker than Ye Xi.
Then the Heavenly Court vanished into the void, disappearing from the world. The sky of the Primordial Star returned to normal, as if the celestial palace that had appeared before was just an illusion.
Everyone was shocked, and many of the clans suddenly realized that it was possible to become a god and an immortal on the Primordial Star!
