The Ancient World had only dynasties established by mortals, not celestial courts. For instance, Yu Feng’s village belonged to the Mysterious Kingdom.

Mortal dynasties would choose a certain cultivator’s power as a support, to protect themselves, and would invite this power to select a disciple to serve as the kingdom’s state preceptor.

Such a dynasty did not have a national fate.

Only a country formed by over ninety percent of cultivators could generate a national fate. Factors such as the number and power of cultivators, the overall strength of the country, and many other factors would determine the strength of the national fate.

In the world of the Nine Continents, all citizens were cultivators except for children who were not of age yet. There was no need to painstakingly gather cultivators.

However, in the Ancient World, the method of cultivation was top secret, leading to very few cultivators who were spread out. The Heavenly Monarch could only mobilize his forces to search everywhere, bringing these cultivators to the celestial court.

“So this is the Celestial Court? So magnificent.” Yu Feng stood at the front of the flying boat, marvelled at the largest scene he had ever seen after rebirth, a celestial court that was being established.

The Heavenly Monarch set up the celestial court in the center of the Ancient Continent, where transport was convenient with access to all directions. There were waterways, land routes, and even air routes. Cultivators from all over the continent flocked here. There were hundreds of flying boats in the sky at the same time, all loaded with cultivators.

A gigantic Spirit Gathering Array was hidden underneath the Celestial Court, with spiritual energy from the entire Ancient Continent constantly flowing into it.

The celestial court was not built in a day. At this time, the celestial court had only demarcated its territory and built residential bungalows and courtyards. There were very few other buildings like taverns and merchant houses, and no other formations had been set up either.

Even so, it still had a domineering air as if it was ready to swallow the whole world.

The most conspicuous thing was undoubtedly the holy temple in the center of the celestial court. It was resplendent with gold and jade, primarily made of substantial Sky Clear Stone, combining majesty and beauty in its primitive appearance.

The Heavenly Monarch was in the holy temple.

However, Yu Feng’s sense of mystique and admiration for the Transcendance Tribulation Stage had diminished greatly by now.

After all, he was constantly facing Bai Hongtu.

Before disembarking, Jiang Li sent a message to Yu Feng, asking him to destroy his Cultivation Technique along with Wu Lian’s.

Although he didn’t understand the predecessor Jiang’s intention, Yu Feng still did as he was told.

Yu Feng also received Senior Sister Wu Lian’s Cultivation Technique and burned it as well.

Wu Lian thought it was Yu Feng’s Cultivation Technique working again that turned bad luck into good fortune, and didn’t inquire about the reason.

To join the Celestial Court, one needed to register. Ma Pingfan led a group of people to register. Only after the registration was completed, could credit be attributed to him.

“Name?”

“Yu Feng.”

“Cultivation stage?”

“Early Golden Core stage.”

“Age?”

“Twenty.”

Yu Feng’s cultivation stage and age attracted exclamations from the back row. A twenty-year-old in the early stage of the Golden Core, that was an exceptional cultivation genius with boundless prospects.

Being in the Golden Core stage had already surpassed ninety-nine percent of cultivators. In a mortal kingdom, they could all serve as state preceptors, enjoying wealth and luxury with nightly revelry.

In this group of people, there were only a few of them in the Golden Core stage. The youngest one was over fifty years old, other than Yu Feng.

There was only one in the Nascent Soul stage, Sister Wu Lian.

Yu Feng has been wanting to ask Sister Wu Lian about her age, but she had been firmly refusing to tell in this respect. Even during the days when Yu Feng was reborn, he heard about the things that Brother Second couldn’t speak of from Sister Wu Lian, but he still couldn’t find out about Sister Wu Lian’s age.

Even Ma Pingfan gave Yu Feng an extra look, as he didn’t expect his little junior brother to be so young.

He hated geniuses the most.

“Hand over your personal belongings, open the storage ring. We need to search the books you carry.”

“What?” Yu Feng thought he had heard wrong.

The cultivator responsible for the registration repeated his statement.

His words caused the crowd to stir.

Ma Pingfan spoke up: “By the decree of the Heavenly Monarch, the content in the books may pose a threat to stability and must be checked one by one. After confirming that there is no threat, they will be returned to you.”

If he didn’t say anything, it would be fine. Now that he had said it, however, the crowd became more excited.

The content in the books that threatens stability, what else could it be? It must be the Cultivation Techniques!

Cultivation Techniques are a cultivator’s life and can’t be handed over for people to read.

And they also have to open the storage ring and check all the things, which means they have no privacy at all.

Who among those who could mix up to this point didn’t have some things they couldn’t expose? What if those things are turned out…

Seeing the continuing bickering, Ma Pingfan’s eyebrow twitched slightly, releasing the majesty of the God-transformation stage cultivator, making people crawl on the ground, sweating, and dare not speak.

“You really don’t know how to appreciate!”

“What kind of a person do you think the Heavenly Monarch is? Would he covet your worthless books? These are all procedures, do it quickly!”

At this point, Yu Feng realized why Predecessor Jiang had asked them to destroy their cultivation techniques.

His and his sister’s cultivation techniques were capable of cultivating into immortals, they were the books that the Heavenly Monarch was most wary of.

If a Transcendance Tribulation Stage cultivator set his sights on it, then it would be a point of no return. All they could do was wait for rebirth.

Yu Feng and Wu Lian only had a few ordinary cultivation techniques on them, nothing flashy. But even so, they were taken away, and they were told that they would be returned to them after they had been inspected by the higher-ups.

When it came to Wu Lian’s age, she turned her back to Yu Feng, wrote a number on the table, and showed it to the cultivator responsible for registration.

The clamor from another team was even greater than Yu Feng’s side.

“What? To join the celestial court, you must live here? This wasn’t part of our original agreement. What about my Spirit Stone mine, what about my Spirit Vein?”

This was a God-transformation stage cultivator, who was a clan leader of a large family. He had originally thought that it was enough to just join the celestial court, he didn’t expect that he would need to live here.

How was this possible? Were they expected to abandon their family assets?

“I will not join the celestial court.” The God-transformation stage cultivator frowned, turned around, intending to lead his clan members to leave, but was stopped.

“You want to use force?” the God-transformation stage cultivator scoffed, not showing any fear at all.

Of the people present, there was only one at the God-transformation stage. It was Ma Pingfan, and he definitely couldn’t stop a God-transformation stage cultivator who was determined to leave.

A gigantic bloody hand descended from the sky, like five supporting pillars of heaven itself. The God-transformation stage cultivator who had intended to leave didn’t even manage to let out a shriek before he and his clan were crushed into a cloud of blood and absorbed by the owner of the bloody hand.

Body Integration Realm cultivator, the Blood River Ancestor.

“By the Heavenly Monarch’s decree, all cultivators must join the celestial court. Those who rebel will be regarded as opposing the Heavenly Monarch, and will be killed without mercy!” The Blood River Ancestor’s voice echoed from the sky.

“Anyone else who proposes not to join the celestial court will meet the same fate as this person!” The Blood River Ancestor unapologetically threatened.

The people below were as quiet as cicadas in winter.

“Ancestor.” Ma Pingfan bowed to the Blood River Ancestor, who was his superior.

The Blood River Ancestor didn’t so much as glance at him. He just left directly.

The Blood River Ancestor never set foot on the ground from the beginning to the end, and the onlooking crowd had no chance to witness the glory of a Body Integration Realm cultivator.

“Now, who else is unwilling to hand over the books?” Ma Pingfan surveyed the crowd.

The people, scared out of their wits, quickly pulled out their books, not daring to voice any more doubts.

However, the Cultivation Techniques of this group of people were really unexciting. The best ones were only capable of cultivation to the God-transformation stage.

Just in case these Cultivation Techniques hid other Cultivation Techniques, such as reading in reverse or reading every other word, these Cultivation Techniques were also confiscated.

Jiang Li saw these scenes unfold, and a scornful sneer hung on the corners of his mouth.

“Celestial court? National fate? Truly laughable.”
