Chapter 636 Breakthrough to the Tao Master!
If you want to be rich, build roads first.
Although this is an extraordinary world, with various powerful people entrenched here, various schools of thought, incense and gods, demons and ghosts mixed together, no matter how many there are, population is also the primary productive force. Shen Ping has modern thinking and knows this very well.
Only when the population increases can more geniuses be born and more incense and vows be gathered, and the power of the mountain gods, river gods, dragon gods and other gods of the incense and deity will become stronger.
No one.
Having gods alone is useless.
Therefore, while focusing on nurturing and development, the main directions of Changzhou and Jinzhou are building roads, promoting childbirth, and developing the economy.
And Shen Ping is in charge.
Demons and evil spirits dare not infiltrate and cause trouble.
At the same time, he would not involve other state capitals and would develop his own territory steadily.
As land, water, and post transportation became more and more developed, the number of people pouring in from various states increased day by day. In just a hundred years, the population in Jinzhou Prefecture alone exceeded two million. This was because there were too few arable lands in Jinzhou Prefecture.
Fortunately, the well-developed business allows many people to maintain basic food and clothing.
But after all, agriculture was the main form of life in ancient times, and even the extraordinary world was no exception. As long as people had enough food to eat, those monsters would still move to places with more people.
So Shen Ping directly used his supreme magical powers to open up a continent in the world that rewards magic weapons, and used it to grow various crops to increase production to supply such a large population.
Except for Golden State.
The population of Changzhou, a large state, is even more exaggerated. After a thousand years of recuperation and reproduction, it has exceeded 10 million. This is a state, which is equivalent to one-sixth of the population of Kyushu! Among them, Changzhou City is even more prosperous than the imperial capital, with a permanent population of more than 4 million. The city has expanded round after round, but there are still many people coming here.
Shen Ping could only build the Acropolis to accommodate this huge population.
…
Another two hundred years passed.
It has been three hundred years since the construction of the road began.
The transportation in the entire Jinzhou and Changzhou areas is extremely developed. There are roads from the provincial capital to towns and villages, and even to tourist attractions in major mountain ranges. There are also daily patrol guards for maintenance, and there are mountain gods, river gods, land gods, and so on to guard them.
However, the powerful people behind the layout of other provinces were not stupid. They immediately realized the horror of this phenomenon, so they continued to send troops to harass and even imitated it.
However, they were not like Shen Ping who worked hard and was friendly to the people, so they only learned the empty words. The larger the population, the more severe the exploitation became, and ultimately they ended up making things difficult for Changzhou and Jinzhou.
As the population prospers and grows.
More and more geniuses in spiritual cultivation are being born.
In the four major Taoist temples, Songguan, Baiyun, Qinglin, Shuiyun, etc., there are now more than 5,000 Taoist True Immortals. The number of Taoist True Lords is less, only a few hundred. But you should know that even in the imperial capital, the number of Taoist True Lords is no more than a hundred.
As for returning to the earth as an immortal, there is none yet, mainly because the time is too short.
They don't want to be like Shen Ping.
It's all about solid practice, step by step. Even if you have great talent, it still takes time to accumulate.
Princess Palace.
Princess Jin Zhen was enjoying the familiar meat rolls while reporting on the development and training of the navy and army in the two states. "My husband, the population has increased, the army has soared to 500,000, and the navy has remained at 300,000. In addition to some auxiliary troops, there are patrol teams and government offices that need to be maintained in various places. The total number of people exceeds one million. The annual food and salary is a considerable expense!"
“It’s almost unbearable financially!”
Shen Ping said casually, "Then issue bonds. The merchants in the jurisdiction are all wealthy. Don't let them just save money and not spend it."
As he spoke, he kept stirring at the palace gate.
After such a long time, Princess Jin Zhen had long been accustomed to Shen Ping's strength. Her eyes lit up, "Yes, why didn't I think of this? These merchants like to save money. Yes, we have to let them spend it, so that we can increase fiscal revenue."
"My husband is smart."
Shen Ping smiled faintly, but he knew that in the long run, with the population continuing to explode, this trick would not work, and he had to prepare to encroach on other states.
After all, we have raised soldiers for so long, and we have to use them.
So twenty years later.
So he launched a war and began to attack the provincial capital near Changzhou.
The court sent an envoy to inquire.
Princess Jin Zhen directly retorted that she was exterminating the evil spirits.
The court had nothing to say.
This is the advantage of having royal bloodline.
The war lasted for a hundred years.
The three states near Changzhou and Jinzhou were directly swallowed up by Shen Ping, which greatly alleviated the pressure of population explosion and allowed the city to continue recuperating.
When the powerful people in other states saw this, they panicked and tried to develop their economies as well. Unfortunately, they were slow at every step.
Another five hundred years passed.
Shen Ping, who occupied the four states, had become a giant crocodile. The total number of land and naval forces under his jurisdiction exceeded two million. In addition, there were more than ten thousand Taoist immortals, more than a thousand Zhenjuns, and three returning to the earth immortals! The mountain gods, river gods, and dragon kings in various places were nourished by the incense and wishes of tens of millions of people. They all condensed their Dharma bodies and their strength was comparable to that of the Dragon King of the East China Sea.
Possesses such terrifying background and strength.
The powerful people behind the other five continents all knew that this fight for the dragon would be difficult. The imperial court finally could not sit still and directly sent a large army to suppress it. However, at this time, Shen Ping, who had two million soldiers, was not afraid of the imperial court at all.
The two sides went to war directly.
The war lasted for two hundred years, and Changzhou's attacks became more and more fierce. The imperial court lost all its finances, and the rest of the country no longer supported the court, and it could not even provide a decent army.
But Shen Ping did not continue to expand his victory.
Because the fate of the court has not yet ended.
This is an extraordinary world influenced by the operation of the rules of the Supreme Stone Tablet. Everything is determined by fate. If you try to go against fate, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble.
Shen Ping is aware of this.
If we really attack.
The imperial court unreasonably sent out celestial and golden immortals, and there is no room for reason.
So he waited patiently.
And so another thousand years passed.
He finally broke through to the Saint realm naturally!
"It's not easy, it's not easy!"
"With the help of the Dao Sword Seal, I have finally comprehended a little of the origin of the Dao of Heaven and Earth, and it is the origin of the Dao of Sword. From today on, I am the Dao Master!"
This moment.
Shen Ping was in high spirits.
Even if he fails in the fight for the dragon, he can still leave this world smoothly. After becoming the Taoist master, the Shan family and the Meng family in the Tianyan realm will no longer be a threat.
One of the main purposes of coming to this world has been achieved! A few months later.
After Shen Ping used his special bloodline method to make Princess Jin Zhen, Xing'er, and Xinxiang pregnant with his bloodline at the same time, and with an heir, the cohesion of the soldiers, generals and officials of the four states increased significantly, especially with the royal bloodline, even the fight for the dragon had legitimacy.
So half a year later.
Millions of troops from Changzhou were dispatched and divided into three armies, attacking other prefectures from the west, center and east respectively. They had a great advantage, and with the assistance of Fanxu Earth Immortal, Zhenjun and Zhenren, they won victory after victory.
The powerful people behind other provinces were completely helpless in the face of such a devastating force. After all, they had no way to take part in the battle themselves. Even if they could cultivate immortals who could return to the void, their numbers would be far less than those of the Changzhou army.
What's more, there are thousands and tens of thousands of True Lords, and more than 30,000 Enlightened Immortals, as well as those gods and spirits comparable to earthly and celestial immortals guarding their territories, making it impossible for them to infiltrate.
no way.
Who made Changzhou's population exceed 100 million? Such human wave tactics in the fight for the dragon have really been a lesson for these powerful men. In the past, the fight for the dragon was all about the resources and strength behind each family. Who knew that they could use population to force a fight?
Besides, the man from Changzhou made arrangements in advance and gained the advantage, which made it impossible for other powerful men to gather their momentum and they had to give up the chance to compete for the dragon.
Anyway, after ten thousand years, the court will change.
Unfortunately, they didn't know that once the jade seal fell into Shen Ping's hands, all five bracelets would be gathered together, and even if they were replaced, Shen Ping would have the final say.
Fifty years later.
All the land of Kyushu belongs to Changzhou.
Shen Ping also officially let his eldest son ascend the throne and become emperor, and established the name Taiyuan.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The imperial court still wanted to struggle to the death, but people's hearts were in turmoil, and even the powerful people behind it gave up, so it had no choice but to be defeated by the Changzhou army.
Imperial capital.
Inside the palace.
Shen Ping stood on the throne, looking at the imperial seal with the words "By the Heaven's Will, May You Live Long and Prosper" placed there, feeling excited. From a close distance, he already knew that this was the yellow bracelet.
After getting it.
The shadows of the other four bracelets with his true soul power condensed and immediately merged with the yellow bracelet, becoming a real Hunyuan treasure with five bracelets of different colors on it. It was the treasure that the Lord of Jiehai Peak obtained from the Supreme Stone Tablet.
It can be said that the reason why Jiehai Peak can maintain so many palace worlds is mainly due to the effects of the Supreme Stone Tablet and the Chaos Ring.
Boom! Waves of aura enveloped Shen Ping. Through the Chaos Ring, he saw the shadow of the highest stone tablet above the ninth heaven. There seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at him. There was also one in the depths of the netherworld.
He grinned, "I will not fight for the rules of this supreme stone tablet. If you want to take it, go ahead and take it!"
After saying.
He left behind an incarnation and left the yellow giant palace world directly.
With a bracelet.
Shen Ping can come and go as he pleases, with the initiative completely in his own hands. This supreme stone tablet world has become a place for him to train strong people, unlike before, when he had to worry about his life all the time.
Although fighting for the supreme stone tablet could make one above the Taoist master, that is, above the saint, and reach the Hunyuan realm like Pangu, he was not interested in it now.
…
Tsk tsk.
The top of Jiehai Peak.
A colorful vortex condensed out of thin air.
Soon Shen Ping's figure slowly emerged.
Sensing fluctuations.
The black-robed Hades appeared. When he saw Shen Ping, his face was filled with shock. "Shen Ping, you, you got the yellow bracelet?"
Shen Ping nodded, feeling extremely relaxed. He took a deep breath, and the familiar smell made him feel happy. "Fortunately, I have accomplished my mission!"
Enter the Yellow Palace world.
He was trembling with fear, fearing that he would really die in it, but now he has been gaining the authority of the yellow bracelet, and has comprehended the entire top swordsmanship, and has also comprehended a bit of the origin of swordsmanship.
Rumble.
The black-robed Hades Emperor was just about to speak.
A vast aura appeared in the sky above the entire Jiehai Peak, and then a vortex opened, and the origin of the endless realm descended.
“This, this is the origin of the Dao Master’s breakthrough!!”
"How is it possible? It's been less than five thousand years, and he has actually broken through to the Dao Master level?"
Lord Minghuang Yin felt incredible.
And at this moment.
The endless origin is coming.
Shen Ping absorbed it frantically. His Tao body was already very huge. At this moment, absorbing this origin made his Tao body constantly transform. At the same time, the height of his Tao body also expanded frantically, and soon it rose to a height of one million kilometers.
Even larger than Jiehai Peak.
Fortunately, this is in the sea of boundaries. If it were in the immortal territory, other immortal realms would be able to see his majestic and terrifying body.
powerful.
Too strong.
Shen Ping now has only one feeling, as if he can pick stars and the moon with his hands. When he was practicing in the past, he always heard that the powerful can pick stars with their hands. But now his Tao body is so huge that even the planets are tiny in his eyes.
The origin of the endless realm is much more vast than the origin of the immortal realm, and there is no end in sight.
The origin's arrival lasted for dozens of hours before slowly disappearing.
He turned around and looked towards the Immortal Territory.
In the past, I couldn't see the outline of the immortal realm at all, but now it is different. The huge Taoist body can see the edge of the realm, which is covered by layers of thin film. Although I am at an altitude of one million kilometers, I am still very small compared to this immortal realm.
As the Tao body shrinks.
He reappeared on the top of Jiehai Peak.
"Congratulations, Master!"
Lord Minghuang Yin stepped forward to congratulate.
Shen Ping asked with a half-smile, "Master?"
Minghuangyin said: "Master has become the Taoist master, and is qualified to control the Hunyuan treasure of Jiehai Peak, so he can naturally become my master."
“Although the Lord of Jiehai Peak was at the third step of Dao Lord Realm, he still belongs to the category of Dao Lord Realm.”
Listen to this.
Shen Ping pondered.
There are also strong and weak Dao Lords. He has just become a Dao Lord and is the most ordinary one, so he asked, "Yin, what is the difference between the Dao Lords?"
"Master, there is no substantial distinction between Dao masters. It mainly depends on the degree of one's control over the origin of the great Dao of heaven and earth. The degree is divided into the first step, the second step, and the third step. After fully mastering one origin, one can achieve the Hunyuan realm."
"In the Endless Realm, the Primordial Realm is also a transcendent realm, belonging to the legendary strongmen, rarely seen. The master has never seen a transcendent realm, and only knows about this realm from some ancient relics and inheritance. The supreme swordsmanship left by the supreme stone tablet is left by the powerful people in the Primordial Realm."
Shen Ping suddenly realized, then smiled and said, "The Primordial Realm is too far away from me. Now that I have achieved Dao Lord status, I can finally be free and at ease."
Minghuangyin said, "Of course, the master has the Boundary Sea Peak and the Chaos Ring, two great treasures to protect him. Even if other Dao Masters in the Endless Realm know that the Boundary Sea Peak is here, they can't do anything to you. In the entire Endless Realm, as long as the master doesn't take the initiative to provoke those powerful Dao Masters, he can basically run rampant."
Shen Ping laughed, looked towards the hillside of Jie Hai Peak, and his face wrinkled slightly.
