As the gods finished speaking, a dazzling seven-colored light enveloped the entire Holy Glory Empire.
Divine light danced wildly, its exquisite shimmering colors resembling the very essence of heaven and earth as it swirled through the Holy Glory Empire. Wherever it passed, energy surged, and those around could clearly feel the surge of their own energy, with one after another aura of advancement emerging.
Bang bang bang—
Everything was like a miracle. Even Quan Ji could feel that her body was beginning to accumulate a lot of energy—but because of the damage to her original energy, she was unable to break through.
Otherwise, once she breaks through, she has no idea how many levels she will advance in succession with the energy she has accumulated.
Conversely, if this energy continues to accumulate, it will cause her body to become overburdened and suffer the consequences, leading to a self-destructive cycle.
A living organism's body is like a vessel, a container.
Energy is like water, poured into the body, constantly changing and accumulating within this vessel.
Generally speaking, once energy reaches a certain level, people can begin to perceive and use certain means to expand the capacity of their own bodies as containers in order to achieve unlimited growth.
Because of the damage to her original energy, Quan Ji's body could not expand its capacity, so she could only let the energy accumulate and overflow.
Her current state is that she is constantly compressing this energy—but there is a limit to compression. Once this limit is reached, it will rebound, and the consequence will be that she will explode and die.
It seems that after settling things with the Holy Light, I must make a trip to the Elven realm.
Perfect timing! The Elf race isn't far from the Heart Dream Empire. I can go there after making a date with my friend Lan.
Quan Ji thought about it and felt it.
Behold, on the land of the Holy Glory Empire, all sorts of new creatures began to emerge—unseen magical beasts and plants appeared out of thin air, instantly making the Holy Glory Empire's biodiversity flourish.
The Holy Glory Imperial Palace in the center of Holy Glory City also began to change at a visible speed, becoming larger and more magnificent.
The supreme throne that Quan Ji had previously sat on was instantly moved to the imperial palace hall, replacing the ice-blue throne.
A divine blessing descended—the Holy Empire underwent a dramatic transformation.
Quan Ji sensed the changes in the Holy Glory Empire and received feedback from countless sources of faith.
She heard the immense excitement of the people of the Holy Empire:
"Young Miss is truly amazing... I never imagined that she was actually the young president of the Preaching Association. It's like a legend!"
"The young lady's performance today was truly astonishing... The pain she endured while climbing the ladder was so intense that one almost wanted to go up and help her bear it!"
"The Holy Glory Empire is finally becoming stronger and stronger, and all of this is inseparable from the young lady's meticulous efforts. May the gods be with the young lady, and may the gods be with the Holy Glory Empire!"
"May the young lady be with the Holy Glory Empire, may the young lady be with the Holy Glory Empire forever."
...
The sound of people's voices made Kwon Ji unable to help but curl her lips into a smile.
The Holy Glory Empire has now advanced to level four and overpowered level five empires at the Sky Conference, finally stepping into the threshold of becoming a powerful nation.
However, the road ahead is still long, and this is not the end for the Holy Empire!
Even more formidable difficulties await in the future.
The only thing the people of the Holy Glory Empire, and she herself, can do is to grip the sharp blade in her hand, conquer the world, hold the strong shield in her hand, and defend the land.
Immediately afterwards, the voices of the gods resounded throughout the entire continent of Noah.
The gods ultimately concluded:
"Blessing complete, verification complete."
"Announcement: Effective immediately, the Holy Glory Empire is the 521st Level 4 Empire on the Noah Continent. May the Holy Glory Empire continue its efforts!"
"Announcement: Effective immediately, the Holy Glory Empire is the 521st Level 4 Empire on the Noah Continent. May the Holy Glory Empire continue its efforts!"
...
The proclamation was repeated three times, reaching the entire Noah continent and causing immense shock.
Those who did not attend the Sky Conference expressed their profound shock.
The Holy Glory Empire was recently promoted to a Level 3 Empire, making it a thorn in the side of everyone, and they certainly wouldn't let them advance so easily.
So, how much benefit and sacrifice did Quan Ji offer in order to end the Sky Conference so quickly and successfully advance to a fourth-level empire?
No... the bigger problem is, where does the Holy Glory Empire, as a newly established third-tier empire, get the resources to fleece these powerful nations?
Could it be... that the Holy Empire possesses an unparalleled treasure?
It seems... we must keep an eye on the Holy Glory Empire. There must be a secret behind it, and we absolutely cannot let the Holy Glory Empire continue to grow like this!
They began contacting the Empires that had participated in the Sky Conference to find out what was going on.
Those Imperial participants in this Sky Conference were all under immense pressure.
Whether it's the ruler or the representative, they are all.
Not only did they fail to get any benefits, but they were actually taken advantage of. This is a national disgrace from any perspective!
A diplomatic failure that results in significant damage to national interests is a disgrace to any empire or any individual!
The ruler of a certain fourth-level empire returned to his throne, clutching his head; the atmosphere was exceptionally heavy.
Suddenly, a water mirror appeared in front of him.
He was the ruler of a fifth-level empire to whom he was attached but who did not participate in this Sky Conference.
"What's going on at this Sky Conference? Why did you release the Holy Glory Empire so easily? What benefits did they offer?"
The ruler of the fourth-level empire was furious and depressed when he heard about this.
"They didn't give any benefits... On the contrary, the countries even paid out of their own pockets the tax revenue from the five most profitable cities!"
After listening, the ruler of the fifth-level empire narrowed his eyes: "Are you out of your minds? Doing charity? You're a disgrace to the Sky Council!"
The fourth-level empire was on the verge of tears, wanting to curse back, but daring not to.
In this damn situation, if you're so capable, why don't you do it yourself!
He was furious, but he couldn't lash out. He could only humbly explain what had happened.
Upon hearing the whole story, the ruler of the fifth-level empire was stunned and remained speechless for a long time.
Holy crap... Quan Ji is not only the heir of Azure Academy, but also the young president of the Preacher Association?
How dare they kill the king in public?
This is... hiss—
"The Holy Glory Empire is not simple. It seems that we must pay more attention to it in the future."
They hadn't taken it seriously before, but now that they've realized it, it's too late.
The Holy Empire of today is not one that anyone can easily challenge.
Their combat strength is already comparable to that of a level 5 empire, plus the connection with the Missionaries Association.
Even if the Star Abyss Empire wanted to take action, it would have to consider the consequences.
The Holy Empire is truly terrifying.
