Time passes quickly.

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.

In just three short days, with the power of the entire city, the main structure of the palace in the center of the forest has been completed, standing tall next to Lin You’s territory.

"Your Majesty, it’s time to depart."

Early in the morning, the drums and horns sounded in unison, Xue Changgui arrived with a grand procession outside Lin You’s territory, stretching from one end of the street to the other.

The lively scene attracted countless subjects to gather and watch from a distance by the roadside.

A group of children chased each other joyfully on the street, dressed in clothes usually worn only during the end of the year.

Meanwhile, inside the territory.

Lin You was surrounded by several stewards and a large group of servants, each holding various items and bustling to and fro in the territory.

"Hurry up."

Lin You extended his arms and, with the aid of the servants, donned a purple gold dragon robe and a golden crown, looking significantly more dignified.

"Quick, quick, remove any useless things, don’t delay the hour."

Xu Zhong kept calling out from the side, directing the actions of his subordinates.

Upon hearing this, the servants sped up, hastily tailoring the edges and sorting the train for Lin You.

Soon, everything was ready.

Lin You, surrounded by a crowd, stepped out of the territory and joined the procession outside.

"Set off!"

With a shout, the dragon chariot carrying Lin You slowly began to rise.

Suddenly, the sound of drums and music filled the air, and ceremonial fireworks were ignited, proceeding towards the newly constructed palace.

In the sky, Plant Dragons and Flower Spirits fluttered back and forth, scattering rays of light below.

Meanwhile, the stewards and guards following beside the dragon chariot had glowing faces, diligently maintaining order.

Originally, Lin You didn’t want such a grand display, nor did he like such pomp and circumstance.

However, considering that the Saint Protection Duchy was newly established, it was indeed necessary to make an appearance and make it grand, so he went along with Xue Changgui’s plan.

With this thought,

he withdrew his gaze and casually opened the territory interface to check.

Over the past three days, he had accumulated a total of eight rule fragments.

Two from the duchy, six from the Origin Space.

He also successfully upgraded the remaining three members of the Royal Family to Tier Ten, with attributes undergoing dramatic changes.

[Name: Cactus Slaughterer·Shadowless (Royal Family)]

[Race: Plant (Hero)]

[Level: Tier Ten]

[Power: 49000 (+24500)]

[Constitution: 41000 (+35260)]

[Agility: 50000 (+25000)]

[Spirit: 48500 (+24250)]

[Skills: Instant Shadow, Mirage, Shadow Kill, Void, Phantom Walker (50% chance to evade attacks; upon successful evasion, trigger Mirage, creating a phantom clone with all abilities in place for 10 seconds.)]

[Rule Transformation (Talent): Can enhance attributes by absorbing rule fragments.]

[Slaughter Machine (Talent): Increase speed by 30% for 5 seconds when killing enemies.]

[Introduction: The king among cacti, mastering formidable instant kill techniques in the harsh desert, walking amid illusions.]

...

[Name: Dream Dandelion - Soul-Seeking (Royal Family)]

[Race: Plant (Hero)]

[Level: Tier Ten]

[Power: 47700 (+23850)]

[Constitution: 48000 (+31680)]

[Agility: 45400 (+22700)]

[Spirit: 50000 (+25000)]

[Skills: Slaughter Illusion Realm, Parasitism, Blood Slaughterer, Blossoms like Brocade, Dream Tree (Unleashes the Power of Nature, growing a Dream Tree at the designated location, spreading dandelion seeds tenfold in speed; during the presence of the Dream Tree, all dandelion seeds receive shield protection, capable of resisting one attack.)]

[Rule Transformation (Talent): Can enhance attributes by absorbing rule fragments.]

[Parasitic Destruction (Talent): Reduces the parasitized’s movement speed by 20%.]

[Introduction: A plant with an exceedingly terrifying spread speed; once the scale takes shape, it will be the nightmare of the entire battlefield.]

...

[Name: Radiant Lantern Grass: Void Nether (Royal Family)]

[Race: Plant (Hero)]

[Level: Tier Ten]

[Power: 40000 (+20000)]

[Constitution: 48000 (+31680)]

[Agility: 48000 (+24000)]

[Spirit: 50000 (+45000)]

[Skills: Spiritual Protection, Radiance, Purification, Void Space, Absolute Domain (Constructs an absolute domain within a 1-kilometer radius around itself, nullifying all enemy enhancement effects for 10 seconds.)]

[Rule Transformation (Talent): Can enhance attributes by absorbing rule fragments.]

[Ten Thousand Lights (Talent): When skills are activated, other Lantern Grass within the skill range will also activate the same skill, with the effect reduced by 50%.]

[Introduction: The royal family of Lantern Grass possesses more powerful auxiliary offensive methods than ordinary Lantern Grass.]

...

Shadowless’s Tier Ten skill, which combines evasion and life-saving with illusory attacks, greatly enhances battlefield survival and offensive capabilities.

As for Soul-Seeking, the diffusion method of dandelion seeds receives immense enhancement, even offering protection to all seeds.

Although it only blocks one attack, spreading among thousands upon thousands of seeds is still deeply terrifying.

As for the new Void Royal Family, the new Skills are even more powerful.

All enemy enhancements are nullified, combined with the Exclusive Talent of Ten Thousand Lights, it’s almost like sealing all the enemies’ methods of burst.

Even using it when the enemy bursts would be absolutely exhilarating.

Void’s Skills emphasize a large range, pervasive in every way, it seems necessary to leave some space to recruit more Lantern Grass.

Then.

Lin You also reviewed the development situation of the duchy over the past few days.

Yin Tiange is indeed the person highly recommended by Yan Wu and Bai Haitang.

Under his management, in just three days, the number of Tier Six Lords in the duchy has reached over three thousand, not far from the previous estimate of five thousand.

This batch of Tier Six Lords will be the backbone of the Saint Protection Duchy.

They are also the focus of Lin You’s future cultivation.

After all, advancing Tier Six Lords to Tier Eight doesn’t consume much resources, nor does he need to worry about dying too quickly on the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms as before.

As for Tier Nine Lords, the three of Yan Wu should be close.

"Your Majesty, we are about to reach the palace."

At this moment, Xue Changgui’s voice suddenly interrupted Lin You’s thoughts.

He raised his head to find the ceremonial guard had already passed through the new palace gates, entering the marble-lined palace.

Wherever his gaze landed, it was filled with sparkling jewels and white jade pillars.

Luxurious palaces sat among them, exuding the fragrance of newly applied lacquer, mingling with the festive atmosphere in the air.

And on the wide square in front of the hall, rows of figures had long been waiting there, ready to hold the coronation ceremony.

"Let it begin."

Lin You said softly and stepped down from the Dragon Chariot, following the procession towards the great hall.

What followed.

Were a series of ceremonies, prayers, incense offerings, and other assorted things.

Kings from several nearby duchies also came by to offer their congratulations.

From morning until the afternoon, as the sun was about to set.

The whole process finally come to an end, and Lin You finally experienced the exhausting effort of ancient emperors.

Fortunately, for someone at Tier Ten like him, it wasn’t much, just a little tiring.

Once everything was done, he moved the World Tree behind the palace and went to rest in the nearby private chamber.

...

In the blink of an eye.

Two days had passed.

Just when Lin You was in the grand hall discussing duchy matters with the officials below, the voice of the Saint Radiance Emperor finally echoed in his ear.

"Everyone, gather at the battlefield immediately, a war is about to begin!"

A war is about to begin?

Lin You was startled inside, quickly raising his hand to stop the officials’ reports below.

"Your Majesty, has something happened?"

Standing at the forefront, Xue Changgui asked with puzzlement.

"The Realm Battlefield is starting, I have to go over."

"In my absence, everything continues as usual, managing the duchy affairs is left to you, if there are significant matters that can’t be decided, wait until I return."

Finished speaking, Lin You vanished from the throne in a flash.

"We wish you well, Majesty!"

The ministers below changed their expressions and quickly sang out their farewells loudly.

Meanwhile.

On the Realm Battlefield.

Lords from various realms gathered here, cross-border teleportation arrays in each outpost lit up in succession, constantly bringing Lords from the realms over.

At the forefront of the Primordial Realm’s team, Lin You’s figure flickered, appearing among a group of Kings.

"Lin You, over here."

The moment Ji Xinghe saw him, he waved him over.

Standing beside Ji Xinghe, Ji Yunshuang was also there, looking at Lin You with a curious expression.

"Lin You, I didn’t expect you to ascend to Tier Ten so quickly, congratulations."

"Just a stroke of luck, with your father here, you should be soon too, right?" Lin You replied.

"What use is having me around? This girl just runs around all day, not giving anyone a moment’s peace." Ji Xinghe interjected.

"I’m just trying to ascend to Tier Ten soon to help you out, father." Ji Yunshuang retorted with a glare at Ji Xinghe.

"Alright, alright, as long as you’re healthy, that’s good enough." Ji Xinghe concurred, then turned to Lin You, "How are things? Are you familiar with everything post-upgrade? We’re about to advance towards the Realm Alliance, possibly face a major battle."

"Don’t worry, I’ve got the basics down." Lin You chuckled slightly.

He had already met Ji Xinghe once yesterday, trading 7 Rule Fragments for some items to increase Faith as rewards for Yin Tiange and the others.

The remaining 3 pieces were converted to Magic Energy, expanding the Tier Ten Species to 5000.

"It’s good that you’re familiar with it. In a Tier Ten battle, you might face opponents with seven or eight fragments or even a complete Divine Format, at that time you mustn’t push too hard, avoid if possible." Ji Xinghe cautioned once more.

As he saw it, Lin You had just advanced, even with the support of the Saint Radiance Emperor, at most he had two Divine Fragments.

Facing opponents with over five Divine Fragments remains quite challenging.

"Hmm, I will." Lin You nodded sincerely.

He had just begun, indeed it wasn’t wise to challenge those powerful figures.

Better to keep a low profile, waiting for the Origin Universe to thrive and strengthen before making a move.

Thus, what he needed most now was time.

As this thought crossed his mind.

Emperors of all realms gradually ascended, appearing before the assembled teams.

"Everyone, heed the command, begin the advance!"

At the command, the enormous formation started to move, steadily advancing towards the Realm Alliance.
