At the beginning of the thirty-third year of Yuan Ding.

Taicang began to vigorously excavate the resources available in the Hundred Domains.

Except for the realm where the shadow of Fuliang is strong, or the Dead Country of Fuliang is harvesting souls.

In other regions, large and small, there are Taicang Xuanji Treasure Ships.

These Xuanji treasure ships are often loaded with strong people, as well as some of Taicang's outstanding backs, shuttling through the hundred domains.

On the Xuanji Treasure ship, there are also many Tiangong Mansion Casting Spirit Masters and Tiandan Mansion Alchemy Spirit Masters.

Once they were sure that there was precious spiritual gold under this mountain, the strong man on the Xuanji Treasure ship would step off the treasure ship and slaughter all the behemoth and fierce demon spirits within a radius of 100 miles.

Then leave behind the hundred-man army guarding the mountain and continue to the next exploration point.

Soon after they left, Taicang would send the treasure ship again, bringing the strong and the spirit weapon to come.

The extremely precious spiritual gold veins and medicine fields, the Taicang strong will relocate the entire ore veins and medicine fields to the ten-day airspace.

If this treasure of heaven and earth is not very precious, all the existing treasures will be excavated and collected by strong monks and spiritual weapons used for collection, loaded into the treasure ship, and transported back to Taicang.

Throughout the land of the Hundred Domains, it was common to see Taicang's Xuanji Treasure Ship like a flying beast swimming in the void.

The Taicang soldiers on the treasure ship, dressed in precious armor and armed with extremely sharp weapons, made many small countries that had not yet perished think that the heavenly army came from the sky.

Of course, Taicang does not invade the territory of the country that still exists.

The area where they looted the Genius Treasure was just a dead domain that had been invaded by the Dead Country and had no living souls.

Even in the Dead Domain, many genius treasures have disappeared without a trace under the ravages of war, obstacles, and demons.

However, the hundred domains are very vast.

In the vast area, there are still many things worth exploring.

Needless to say, the benefits are there.

Naturally, Taicang made a lot of money.

"Now that the three mountains have recovered, there is no barrier between the land of the hundred domains and the Zhujiang Plain, and the minister thinks that it is time for Taicang to trade with many countries on the Zhujiang Plain. ”

In the court meeting of the Taihe Palace, Po Xian stood in the center of the hall and talked eloquently.

He said: "According to Taicang's current strength, the Taicang Royal Court caravan can go to the weak dynasty to trade, and exchange the talismans, spiritual weapons, elixirs, and spiritual weapons that Taicang is good at for their precious treasures. ”

Lu Yu Shangyin also responded on the side: "The land of the hundred domains is very vast, but for thousands of years, the spirit yuan has always been thin, although after the recovery of the three mountains, the spirit yuan has spread, and all kinds of genius earth treasures have also begun to emerge, but the time for the recovery of the spirit yuan is too short after all, and the number of genius earth treasures is also very limited." ”

"But the Zhujiang Plain is different, how is the Zhujiang Plain a thousand times larger than the land of the Hundred Domains? Among them, there are countless geniuses and earth treasures, and there are many exquisite inheritances and powerful spiritual weapons, and I Taicang should trade with them if I have the ability. ”

Many of the ministers nodded.

"It is indeed very beneficial to trade with the Zhujiang Plain now. ”

Shangchen Ji Ze also said: "First, you can take the field of people and make up for my shortcomings; second, you can converge the spiritual veins and strengthen the national strength; and third, you can use the name of business to explore the details and strength of the Zhujiang Plain."

The heart of defense is indispensable, even if the land of the hundred domains is enough for me to live and live for thousands of years, but if I don't know our neighbors, it is inevitable that I will not know the bottom of my heart. ”

Ji Xia, who was sitting at the top, listened carefully to the suggestions of many ministers in the palace.

He thought for a moment and asked Po Xian: "The Zhujiang Plain is still too far away, if you want to trade with the Zhujiang Plain, Taicang's existing Imperial Spirit Weapons and Demon Beasts are not enough, does Shangcang City have ideas?"

Po Xian nodded and said: "I have read many classics from the fierce sheep, and I have learned that although the Zhujiang Plain is as cruel as the Hundred Domains, there are still many dynasties trading with each other on the plain, of course, because there is no precious traffic royal spirit weapon, their trade is often limited to two or three dynasties.

However, with the ambition of many great merchants, if they want to enter the plains of the rivers, they must buy and sell all the kingdoms. ”

A smile appeared on Po Xian's face, and he said, "So I have already played the royal court a few days ago, and I want the Tiangong Mansion to cast a spaceship for my Taicang Chamber of Commerce that is as fast as the Xuanji Treasure Ship, or even faster than the Xuanji Treasure Ship."

The spaceship is exhausted, and the Shangcang City Government will bear two layers, as the support of the city government, and many chambers of commerce will bear the remaining eighty percent.

It's just that...... Of these eighty percent, half of the consumption can be paid immediately, and the rest needs to be regulated by the caravan before it can be paid. ”

Ji Xia nodded slowly.

Ever since there was the Divine Fire Sect's Secret Fire Heavenly Axis, the casting skills of the Heavenly Crafts Mansion had improved by leaps and bounds.

Some time ago, Lu Case also came to meet Ji Xia, and told Ji Xia that the Gongfu had already been researched faster, and more behemoths of flying spirit weapons had been studied, and he wanted to ask the royal court to allocate funds for casting, and cast one first to see the effect.

At that time, Ji Xia was still immersed in the amazing wealth of Luohou and couldn't extricate himself, so he immediately waved his hand and allocated the funds for the casting of the two ships.

Lu was overjoyed, and when he finished the approval, he found out the terrifying casting price of the new flying spirit weapon, and Ji Xia was a little speechless.

"I knew that I would approve one first, otherwise if both ships could not be used, wouldn't it be a big loss?"

At that time, Ji Xia still remembered his own thoughts.

Now that Po Xian asked like this, Ji Xia thought for a while and said, "Then divide twenty ships for you from the existing Xuanji Treasure Ships."

The major chambers of commerce don't have to pay eighty percent of the price, this is majestic, and the king also admires their ambition, so the royal court can support two percent. ”

Perxian was overjoyed, and in his gentle expression, he showed a little excitement.

He saluted Ji Xia respectfully.

Ji Xia thought for a while, and then said to Jing Ye beside him: "You send an order to the fierce sheep Yuzao, let her send a few Shenyuan, and wait in the fierce sheep, the fierce sheep will become the shelter of the Taicang merchants from now on, if there is an unsightly force that dares to covet the treasures of Taicang, Yuzao will send Shenyuan to make them pay the price." ”

Po Xian also said: "This time to do business, my eldest disciple Shang Luo will also go in person, with the help of Lord Xinya of the Mysterious Pavilion, we will disguise ourselves as a hidden behemoth family, disguise ourselves as a high-ranking race, and will not expose too much." ”

Ji Xia had a smile on the corner of his mouth and slowly bowed his head.

"If you think about it carefully, the king has never been absent from the court except for going out for training, retreat, expeditions, and visiting other countries. ”

After the court meeting, several Taicang ministers were quite emotional.

Shangchen Ji Qing sighed: The king is the pride of my human race, his talent is unparalleled, and he can be diligent and hardworking, and the means of governing the government are even more staggering.

Lu Yu on the side laughed, and said with a relaxed face: "How can there be more than Mingjun in Taicang? There are also Mingchen, haven't we ever been absent from the court meeting? Especially General Meng Yan, when he returned from the expedition, the bloody breath on the armor had not yet dissipated, and he went to the court to participate in the meeting on the second day, which was admirable. ”

Meng Yan's righteous and awe-inspiring face showed a smile and said: "Shang Yin has praised it, Shang Yin has ...... many times"

In front of the palace, many ministers and generals blew each other's business.

Ji Xia had already returned to the Choking Secret Realm and went to the Qiangong Palace.

He sat casually on the throne, backed from the left and right, and snapped his fingers lightly.

With this snap of his fingers, the void suddenly glowed with a dense spiritual light.

When the spiritual light shone, an extremely mysterious aura suddenly surged.

These breaths are wonderful and mysterious, even Ji Xia, who is at the height of his talent, can't guess the avenue contained in them.

At the same time, a world scene began to appear in Ji Xia's eyes.

In this part of the world, the sky is blue, the ocean is vast, and the terrain is different, with mountains, rivers, plains, hills, and ......

Everything.

On the earth, because of the extremely rich oxygen content, the plants and trees here are unusually tall and stout.

But Ji Xia's attention was obviously not on these plants and trees.

He was like a god behind the clouds, looking down on the world.

"I haven't come to see them for two months, and I don't know if those two high-IQ creatures have perished. ”

"In two wild years, 20,000 months have passed in this primitive world, that is, more than 1,600 years. ”

Ji Xia's mind moved slightly, communicating with the primitive world, and suddenly found one of the living beings in a plain.

This group was also born in human form, but they seemed to be born with muscles, and they were unusually tall, five or six feet tall.

"Well, for more than a thousand years, this world is rich in oxygen, but it still hasn't evolved a spirit element.

Moreover, the bodies of these tall giants seem to be a little taller. ”

Ji Xia observed these giants and felt a little helpless.

In the primordial world attribute information, it is stated that every 10,000 primordial world years, Ji Xia, as the master of the world, can lower his will and add rules to the world.

"Let's take a look at it again, if there is no way to evolve the spirit element naturally, then when the 10,000-year period expires, I will use the power of domination to let this side of the world evolve into a spirit element. ”

Ji Xia thought carefully in his heart while observing these giant races.

They were born with the power of the primitive world, and they had spiritual intelligence, but they had never had any civilization, no language, no writing, and no gathering system.

They spend their days fighting the behemoths of the primitive world, eating their flesh and drinking their blood.

"But even if you have Lingyuan now, it won't help. ”

Ji Xia watched these giants wander across the plains, fighting with giant beasts from time to time, and being chased by even more behemoth beasts from time to time.

"Even if there is a spirit element, according to the current level of civilization of the giant, it is difficult to evolve the spirit element guide practice method. ”

Ji Xia observed for a long time and felt that the world that was 10,000 times faster was quite interesting.

His mind flickered, and the world suddenly turned to the second group of people who were still sane.

Indeed, a giant python with horns on its head.

They entrenched themselves in a densely forested area, waiting for an opportunity to devour their enemies.

"Well, more than a thousand years have passed, but the python hasn't changed at all...... Well, the epidermis seems to have become more colorful, probably out of the need to disguise itself. ”

Ji Xia looked at the giant python for a while, and his consciousness wandered around again, looking at this primitive world.

Although it is called the primitive world here, this so-called "primitive" is probably based on a mythological perspective, not a scientific perspective.

If it is a "primitive world" in the scientific sense, it may be completely ocean, and there is no land and life at all.

Even if it is tens of millions of years in the past, it needs to be purified from a single-celled crawler, so even if there are 500 million years.

If you want to develop to the point where you can be in touch with the Infinite Wilderness without being too weak, you may not have enough time.

However, the primordial world bred by the world god seed in the Forbidden Immortal Tree Divine Treasure already had huge creatures here from the beginning.

Countless ferocious beasts and humanoid races survive in the primitive world.

Monty python and giant, this is the most intelligent species among them.

"Since it will take close to a savage year before we can customize the rules for the primordial world, then let them go for the time being, and I'll take a look at it when the time comes. ”

Ji Xia's consciousness retreated from the primitive world.

His eyelids suddenly twitched slightly, and he didn't know why, he always felt that this side of the world would bring him a huge surprise in the future.

Ji Xia's consciousness was standardized from the primitive world, and he was about to practice, when a divine consciousness fell into Ji Xia's mind and saluted him.

A heartfelt smile appeared on the corner of Ji Xia's mouth, and said, "Scourge Dragon, come in." ”

——

For the people of Taicang.

The biggest change in life still comes from the communication rune jade that Tianfu Pavilion mass-produced two years ago.

This kind of communication rune jade was named Chuanyu by King Taichuzun.

First of all, this kind of jade spread among the wealthy merchant class.

Because merchants often have to travel around, even if there are strong people in the caravan who are not weak in spiritual sense, but they are thousands of miles away, it is difficult to communicate from time to time.

But with the transmission jade, it is different, as long as it is a place covered by the transmission rune signal, it can be contacted in real time.

"Now that I am too Cang, the adults in the various mansions are really admirable. ”

In the Xiyang Domain, in the palace of the Zhou Dynasty, a drunken caravan leader with a confused eye sat in the position of the guest of honor.

He held a slender rune jade the size of half a palm in his hand, showing off to the nobles of the Zhou Huang royal family in front of him.

"This piece of jade of mine is made of priceless rune jade, even if there is no rune tower to cover the Xiyang Domain, you can still receive rune signals and communicate with your family. ”

Many nobles of the Zhou Huang clan blinked the four eyes on their faces and looked at Chuanyu in surprise.

"My lord, why don't you give me a demonstration of these creatures who have never seen the world?"

There is a proposal from the royal nobles.

"Then let me take a look at my Shang Cang's mansion. ”

The Taicang merchant raised his head slightly, and pressed the jade a few times at will, and a light curtain suddenly appeared on the jade.

In the light curtain, a young man's face was revealed.

"My son, let these Zhou Xuan nobles see the grand scene of my Shangcang City. ”

The Zhou Dynasty was the first dynasty to purchase bone secrets from the Taicang Royal Court.

Later, other dynasties came to loot the secret artifact, and Taicang also sent soldiers to break through the clouds on the Xuanji treasure ship to help them kill the enemy.

Therefore, in the most prosperous place in the center of the capital of Zhou Huangguo, the court of Zhou Huang also cast a huge statue of Ji Xia, the king of Taichu, for the people to be grateful and commemorate.

The creatures of Zhou Huang are also very yearning for Taicang, and a large part of the mirrors that Taicang exported abroad are flowing to Zhou Huang and more than a dozen other dynasties.

The nobles of the Zhou Huang royal family saw that on the light curtain of the jade transmission, the images of luxurious and magnificent buildings were truly reflected, and from time to time, there were Taicang Punishment Armor soldiers who exuded terrifying majesty walking through the clean and spacious streets.

One by one, just as they imagined, dressed in bright clothes and with a heartfelt smile on their faces, they sat on the wandering houses scattered in the streets and alleys, and flashed by.

"Too cang...... It's the ......."

King Zhou Huang sighed.

He didn't realize that not long ago, in his eyes, the human race was still very weak, and the civilization and inheritance were also very weak, not worth mentioning.

And now, the sense of respect in his heart permeated, but it also came from the heart, and there was no weird feeling.

After all, in the eyes of these dynasties now, Taicang is too powerful.

In front of the Taicang, they are like a weak and small country.

King Zhou Huang is also a king, but in front of Ji Xia, he is humble to the extreme, and he can't be compared at all.

"Taicang Shangguo, maybe you're about to ascend to the realm of the dynasty, right?"

King Zhou Huang sighed in his heart.

Taicang is indeed preparing to ascend to the imperial dynasty.

"Kingdom promotion has requirements for territory. ”

Ji Xia sat on the top and asked the composer Zhaoqu and Lu Yu, "How are all the matters prepared?"

Lu Yu replied: "I have ordered people to set up the Taicang Boundary Monument in the twenty-three Dead Domains, and the Heavenly Army Mansion Lord has also summoned the two domain spirits except for the Jiaoliu Great Venerable, and they have also unified the domain boundaries they are guarding and are under the rule of Taicang.

In terms of territory, there is no longer any obstacle. ”

Zhaoqu also nodded slightly, then thought for a while, and said: "The territory is not an important part of the promotion of the kingdom.

I heard that under some of the sacrificial methods of sacrificing to the heavens, even if the territory of the kingdom is very small, as long as the number of strong people, the level of living beings, and the combat power of the army meet the requirements of the heavens, they can also complete the promotion, but unfortunately Taicang does not have such a sacrificial method. ”

"Don't be a pity, these dead domains are too vast sooner or later, even if you set up boundary monuments now, it doesn't matter, you don't need it for the time being, you just don't develop it. ”

Ji Xia's eyes shuttled, passed through the choking secret realm, and landed in the entire Taidu.

"Taidu has been founded for more than 200 years, and it has been 41 years since the advent of the dynasty, and it is about to achieve the second dynasty in 18,000 years of the hundred domains, except for the dead country. ”

Ji Xia felt some emotion in his heart.

Lu Yu, Zhaoqu, and Chang Feng on the side also turned red and looked extremely excited.

Zhao Qu said: "On the fifth day of the ninth month, take the meaning of the ninety-five in the mouth of the king, symbolizing the dignity of the Taicang ascending to the boundless ninety-five! At that time, you can perform a ceremony to sacrifice to the sky." ”

Ji Xia agreed: "Yes." ”

Zai Li Changfeng touched his beard and saluted Ji Xia: "The Si Li Mansion has drawn up an invitation, please come to watch the ceremony from the lord of the country who is good friends with Taicang." ”

Ji Xia did not veto Chang Feng's proposal.

It doesn't hurt to let many countries watch the ceremony, after all, in the current Taidu, there are also many nobles and strong monks from other dynasties.

Ji Xia was thinking.

Jing Ye suddenly bowed down, and a huge piece of jade in his hand emitted light, constructing a light curtain.

In the light curtain, Yuzao's former figure appeared and saluted respectfully towards Ji Xia.

"The King...... On the side of the ancient tree in the Zhujiang Plain, suddenly there are pavilions appearing, carved beams and jade buildings, solemn and exquisite. ”

"Above the main hall of the pavilion, there is a golden plaque hanging high, and the word 'dark king' is written on it. ”
