BXBX NOVEL Chapter 116 Temple Ruler's Throne
When the Origin Lust Sword Temple emerged, Cyrus found himself in an empty white hall that was spotless. In the center of this hall was a black pillar, and on top of that was a majestic red-purple throne.
Cyrus could instantly feel a connection with that throne the moment he laid his eyes on it.
At this moment, the system\'s voice sounded,

Cyrus\'s lips curled up in a content smile when he saw the description of the Temple Ruler\'s Space and the Temple Ruler\'s Throne.
Cyrus raised an important question, "So not only can I directly speak to everyone, and no one can ignore me with this throne. But the temple members, no matter their rank or prowess, can\'t escape my grasp once they join the temple, and forever at that. Is that what the intent behind the First Function, System?"
"[Affirmative.]"
Cyrus couldn\'t help but chuckle coldly as he now fully understood just how vicious the dimension temples were. Especially, who held the Dimension Ruler\'s authority was an existence that could decide the fate of everyone in his dimension on a whim.
Nevertheless, he liked it this way since it would save him both the time and mental energy from worrying about the loyalty of those under him and whether they had any chance of betraying him!
Although he had multiple ways to achieve the same effect, he could only use one or two with his current strength and resources, and they were not enough to achieve the same effect as the dimension temple.
It seemed to be a very good option and more powerful as well.
\'Since the stage is set, I should start right away as well. I\'m pretty sure those people will head to this place very soon, and they might start to compete with each other if they think this temple is the same as the ten overseer temples.
\'To upgrade this dimension further, I need five million population, so I can\'t have them kill each other. I should make them understand that this place is not like those dimensions that offer them just magic or some measly bloodlines and ruin their potential.
\'Since they followed the crude magic civilization cultivation system, I\'ll directly introduce them to the true Qi cultivation civilization system, which is far superior to their current magic system. Only then can I perfectly reap the benefits and mold this entire world into my Qi cultivation-type dimension…\'
Cyrus\'s eyes went sharp as he decided to go along with the plan he had for the cult. He needed cultivators, not sorcerers, to truly built his forces if he wanted to fight with other dimensions as well, especially those temple dimensions, which were clearly far more powerful than his newly formed dimension.
Only after learning about the secrets of a dimension temple did he finally understand just how precious a growth-type dimension with a temple was, but it was also quite dangerous as well.
Nevertheless, he wasn\'t going to shun away just because of some small variables, he was determined to achieve far more than his old life, and the dimension gave him the path to just do that.
But first, he quickly summoned Eve as it had been four days since he had talked with her, and he also wanted to ask her about her own insight on being a dimension core of this dimension and what kind of power she had. He also needed her if he wanted to activate the throne.
With a thought, black smoke started to envelop his hand before a long black blade appeared, which was naturally the Lust Sword.
"Good Morning!" Eve\'s energetic voice rang in Cyrus\'s mind, which only made the latter smile gently.
"Did you sleep well?" He asked.
"Mmm hmm… I just woke up and heard Elder System saying I\'ve gained some kind of special power which can help get rid of those nasty skeletons, even ghosts." Eve enthusiastically revealed before she suddenly cried in surprise, "Where are we?"
Cyrus cocked an eyebrow, "You didn\'t know?"
"Should I know? I fell asleep that day and clearly remembered you were still in the slum districts. But now that I\'m awake, you\'re in this strange white place. Just how long I\'ve been sleeping?" Eve asked in bewilderment.
"Sigh… it seemed you have no idea that you were supposed to sleep for ten days, nor you seemed to know anything about the Origin Lust Sword Dimension," Cyrus said with uncertainty as the system clearly didn\'t tell her about anything, or it didn\'t want to, or simple it didn\'t have time to revealed anything to her yet.
"What, ten days?!" Eve exclaimed in alarm, "Y-you were alone for ten days with that vixen!?"
\'She\'s only worried about this?\' Cyrus smiled wryly, "Stop being so childish and try asking the system if it tells you anything. Meanwhile, I need to do something before we have a nice chat, and I\'ll tell you everything."
"Hmph! You definitely want to hide your affairs from me. I\'ll ask Elder System then." Eve snorted unhappily.
\'How childish…\' Cyrus shook his head with an amused smile before his eyes fell over the majestic throne, \'Let\'s start!\'
He leaped over the pillar, and just as he stepped on the black smooth surface of the pillar, the clothing on his body started to change.
His Violent Black Sword disguise was crumbled, and it changed into an outfit befitting a ruler.
His masculine body was now wrapped in complete black emperor attire; both his sleeves were embroidered with golden dragon and phoenix while on the back were golden sword blades which looked exactly like the lust sword blade in his hand.
Cyrus looked like a celestial emperor who had to descend to the world, and when he sat down on the throne, he looked even more majestic and godly.
"How handsome! What are you going to do dress like this?" Even Eve, who seemed to be talking with the system, exclaimed in adoration, but a hint of wariness was evident in her voice.
"Of course, I\'m going to address my soon-to-be subjects. So, I can\'t appear unpresentable." Cyrus said matter-of-factly, "This outfit is more fitting for a ruler. But I still lack a crown…"
Just his voice trailed off, and a black crown started to materialize over his crimson head while his long purple hair was draped over his shoulder. Now he really looked like a Celestial Emperor.
"Subjects? Just what did you do?" Eve was even more curious now, "Why did Elder System say you are now the guardian and the ruler of a dimension, and I\'m some kind of core?"
"Just let me be done with this thing, and I\'ll tell you everything. You should observe as how a ruler should behave as my wife, you have to behave this way someday, or you\'ll lose me too much face." Cyrus gently instructed her.
"Hmph, let me see then." Eve snorted, but a hint of tenderness was present in her voice as she was clearly pleased about Cyrus\'s great expectations of her.
"Alright." Cyrus chuckled before he sat, his posture befitting a ruler, and then he placed the sword\'s edge on the black pillar and ordered solemnly, "System activates the Dimension Ruler Projection."
The very next moment, thereby, Cyrus\'s vision suddenly expanded, just like when the dimension was forming. But this time, his eyes remained fine, and the entire process only took an instant.
Now, Cyrus could look at everyone present in the dimension as if he was looking directly into their eyes and they were right in front of him.
"Wow! What is this? I can now see this huge space and everything. Cyrus, look at those green monsters, how nasty and look, look, those ugly beasts…oh… that vixen is also here, and she\'s with someone else…" Eve like a bird in the morning started to instantly exclaimed.
"It seemed we share the same vision over the dimension as well." Cyrus was also surprised and said to Eve, who still seemed to be fascinated by seeing everything and everyone. He knew any mortal would react in the same way.
"Alright, I know you\'re excited and all, but now isn\'t the time to be distracted. Look at those people\'s expressions; they can clearly see me now. So, I shouldn\'t let them wait, or they\'ll think I\'m mute."
Cyrus then stopped paying Eve attention and turned his focus on the masses as he finally uttered!
