Chapter 160: The Emperor (3rd Update)
After thinking about it, the king got up and turned to look for Tumu Guoling.
Tumu Guoling is an elder who has watched him grow up, and he is also the person who is most deeply bound to his interests. The collapse of the royal family and the turmoil of the country are also a great crisis for the national spirit.
But when he went to the palace where the national spirit lived, he was stopped back by Antuya: "His Royal Highness the national spirit is discussing with several other countries, and it is inconvenient to meet with the king for the time being." ”
"How many other countries?" The king inspected for a week, and saw Huo Qubing and others not far from the temple: "Which are those big countries?"
"Yes. ”
A flash of sorrow flashed across the king's face.
Now that the domestic situation is unstable, these foreign national spirits have come to visit again, who knows what their ideas are, maybe the interests of our country will be divided up by them.
In the temple, Tumu is discussing the incident with the four kingdoms of Jile. After hearing about the operation of the four countries, Tumu's face improved a little: "Choosing an heir?" Although I don't know if it will work, I still thank you Your Highness. ”
"Do your part, at least don't let the gods see the jokes. Doya sighed again. In the past few days, she has found that she has been sighing more and more, and her face is about to wrinkle.
Rome: "This time with the main gods, the odds should be very high. It's a pity that our national spirit can't become a god, otherwise it would be so troublesome. ”
"Speaking of the national spirit and the gods-" Ji Le cheered up: "My country has an idea. ”
Regarding the matter of igniting divinity by himself, Ji Le thought about it repeatedly, and decided to tell a few demigod spirits. After all, the gods are too powerful, and he needs someone to help share the pressure. And with the wisdom of Rome and other countries, perhaps a corresponding path will be found in the future.
Instead of that, it's better to be honest and sell a favor.
"I've lit my own fire. The flame emerged from Ji Le's chest, and the brilliance that belonged to civilization alone inspired several national spirits.
Shikoku stared at the fire, and Bado's eyes widened: "You...... You've ignited divinity?"
This is not the crystallization of the civilization of the national spirit, but a further sublimation of divinity from it!
"That's right, and I also have a rough guess about the next evolution of the national spirit. ”
"What?" Tumu subconsciously asked, "Can the national spirit still evolve?"
Ji Le shook his head: "It's the emperor." ”
Imperial?
Several national spirits looked dazed, as if they didn't understand what the words Ji Le was referring to?
Ji Le smiled: "Every time a country is destroyed, our existence will also dissipate. But if we let our concept be engraved in the hearts of the people. Forming an existence similar to the crown of the earth. As long as this tiara is passed on, will our concept be preserved for a long time?"
That is to say, the dynasty changes, the royal family changes, but the civilization does not change, and the country will always exist.
Rome immediately thought of its own situation: the republican and the imperial period?
Imperialism.
Just like China on the earth, even after countless years of changes, one dynasty after another takes turns in power. China, the ancient country of the East, this concept is still spread throughout the world. What the rulers of the past generations pursued was still the imperial system inherited from China.
A similar one was the Roman Empire. Thousands of years later, aren't the nations of Europe still vying for Roman legitimacy?
In addition, if you want to talk about imperial unity, it should be Persia and Egypt, which once had ancient civilizations.
Well, the country next to Huaxia, known as the "One Family of Eternity", although the land area is small, it is barely a country with a long history, which is enough to be proud of the vast majority of countries on the earth. At least this small country has a long history, stronger than some Western empire that once dominated the world for three centuries.
In these imperial states, generations of dynasties have been deduced. But no matter how the dynasty changes, it is still a country in the eyes of outsiders.
For the incarnation of countries like Ji Le, this should be the direction of their development.
As long as the imperial system exists, as long as future generations recognize the succession to the imperial system, these countries can exist for a long time.
And this is another solution to Tumu's current situation.
Even if the royal family changes, the Tumu dynasty changes a dynasty, it is just a change of the helm of the royal family, and it does not damage the national spirit itself.
In this case, we need to firmly engrave our civilization in the origin of the world. This is our path to becoming a god, giving civilization to the years and wisdom to the world. ”
Rome seemed to have come to his senses, and he thought back to the history of his homeland, so that he knew what he was going to do next.
And Tumu was shocked when he heard Ji Le's words, especially the sentence "give civilization to the years".
Suddenly an infinite white light appeared on him.
This light is the power of faith accumulated by Tumu, and the precipitation of hundreds of years of faith is far better than any national spirit present.
This force rose into the sky, attracting the attention of the king outside.
"Divinity?" The king was also a demigod who perceived the divinity that was conceived inside the temple. And this divinity is closely related to him and the entire Tumu dynasty. From this ray of divine brilliance, he seemed to see the vicissitudes of Tumu's centuries-old history.
"The spirit of the country has condensed the divinity?" the king felt ridiculous: "Could it be that the spirit of the country can still be a god?"
Think about it, if a country is a god, then the kingdom he incarnates is not a real kingdom of God?
In the hall, several national spirits all stood up and carefully observed the changes in Tumu national spirits.
At the moment when the old man condensed his divinity, his whole person was full of new vitality, and his face seemed to be more than ten years younger.
Ji Le's eyes changed slightly, and his heart was full of emotion; he was worthy of the most ancient national spirit, and with just one inspiration, I immediately let him understand the root and ignite his own civilization fire.
That's right, the demigod-level national spirit is very powerful, and with its own strength and Earth Mother divinity, it can compete with the weakened gods and the vast majority of earth gods. But in essence, they are not "gods", and the level is the same as those ancestral gods and great spirits, but they are more powerful and have the crystallization of civilization similar to divinity to fill in.
However, Ji Le pointed out a true path to godhood.
Now, Ji Le and Tumu have ignited divinity and opened the way for the national spirits to become gods.
This is not the god of the earth, the lord of the underworld, but the most orthodox way of promotion for the spirits of the country.
Sublimate the kingdom to an imperial system, and reach the point of "dynasty replacement, civilization does not fall". In the future, every dynasty needs the approval of the national spirit and inherits the crown of the emperor, which is the true path of the national spirit.
"Not enough, still not enough. The old man frowned and said, "I feel that although the divinity has been condensed, if you want to truly incarnate the kingdom of God, the background is still shallow. ”
But at this moment, the aura on Tumu's body was no longer inferior to that of some newborn gods. That's right, at this moment, Tumu's strength is already comparable to that of the gods!
But for the national spirits, this is still not enough to become gods!
"Big Brother has accumulated eight hundred years and is not enough to ascend to the position of a god...... "Rome joked, "Is it possible, after we are crowned gods, can we be comparable to the secondary gods in one breath?"
Lesser gods, this is how Rome was divided.
Rome had pantheons, with god-kings as the core, the main gods as the pillars, and the so-called secondary gods as powerful gods who relied on the periphery of the main gods. In Ji Le's system, it is a superior god.
Tumu shook his head: "Perhaps." ”
His vague attitude shocked the hearts of all the countries, and Ji Le said secretly: Could it be that Tumu thinks that after we become gods, we can directly compete with the main god?
If it is the embodiment of a powerful civilization, perhaps this can have a power comparable to that of the Lord God in the world.
"To become a god, you need to put your own brand into the origin of the world. Ordinary celestial gods are imprinting the laws of their own cultivation into the root of the world. And we must put the imprint of civilization into the roots. Even if we fall in the future, as long as the imprint of our roots remains, we can reunite the flame of civilization and inherit our civilization among a new group of intelligent people. ”
In this way, they will transcend the narrow "concept of the state" and become the embodiment of the spirit of civilization.
Doya: "What should we call the national spirit as a god? After the god is sealed, we must also choose a nice name." Empire, this is how we evolved. Then, our god names can be collectively called 'emperors'. ”
The national spirits looked at each other and showed their approval.
Rome: "And in this land, there are only six of us who have been promoted to the kingdom of emperors with qualifications. ”
"More importantly, we want to build our own crown...... The earth crown is a good material. Ji Le touched the dragon crown on his head: "Anyway, we can't tolerate the birth of a real lord of the earth." It's better for our six countries to divide the crown of the earth and create six imperial crowns. In the future, if other kingdoms want to be emperors, they must receive our crowns. What do you think?"
Not well, after all, you're still planning to loot the artifact fragments of those small countries!
The countries are discussing in their hearts, but they have to admit that Ji Le's suggestion is very tempting.
Compared to them becoming empires and emperors, what is the protest of a few small countries?
Especially Tumu, who seems to see his hope of solving his current troubles, where would he oppose Ji Le's opinion?
