Shennong Dao Master-Chapter 1295 - 7: The Secrets of Revival and the Four Requirements for Ascension!
"Yes, it might also turn into bones, becoming a pile of void graves," Zhao Xing said. "The more selfish the dynasty, the fewer people and resources it carries, and the smaller the Boundary Boat it constructs, ultimately leading to a lower chance of survival."
"That's why I say, His Majesty's wish to lead everyone in ascension is the true essence of understanding ascension."
Chatting with Emperor Wu is always comfortable. Zhao Xing decided to learn from the players of the past and initiate a 'Restore the Sky' plan, mainly because of the Emperor Wu.
Even if he delayed until the future, he wouldn't be more comfortable than he is now.
Becoming the Emperor himself poses too much risk; Putta is a lesson from the past.
If he sets up a puppet Emperor, he'd have to worry about everything himself. Who has that much energy?
Ji Che fell silent, stunned by what Zhao Xing said, seemingly digesting it.
It was only because it was Ji Che and Zhao Xing; any other combination would have been seen as spreading misleading words and executed.
For an Emperor dreaming of ascension, Zhao Xing's elucidated facts were incredibly harsh, and the listed conditions could shatter an Emperor's dream of ascension.
However, Ji Che is no ordinary Emperor; he quickly regained his composure, licked his lips, with divine light flowing in his eyes: "On the contrary, I'm even more excited now."
"If we're to do it, let's achieve a feat unmatched by those before or after us!"
"Big brother, given the current Spiritual Energy Tide, reaching a Spiritual Energy Index above five is exceedingly difficult. But you must have a plan, right?"
"It is very difficult. This involves the Returning Ruins, the Southern Barbarians, and the Dragon Court Ancient Land."
"To collect spiritual energy, we can't avoid these three locations."
"Even if we overcome all obstacles and gather enough spiritual energy, what should we do next?" Ji Che asked.
Zhao Xing smiled and pointed to the cloud on the handle of the umbrella: "Fifth brother, can you think of anything it might indicate?"
"Cloud? Minister of Agriculture?" Ji Che's eyes suddenly lit up, "Big brother, do you mean the Minister of Agriculture can summon that Rain of Spirit Qi cloud in advance?"
Zhao Xing laughed: "Exactly, does His Majesty know what the most essential equipment for the Minister of Agriculture is?"
"It's the Cloud Rain Pearl!" Ji Che blurted out. "The Cloud Rain Pearl that collects the aura of clouds and rain!"
"Indeed!" Zhao Xing stood up, spiritedly pointing to many places on the large umbrella: "Gather the world's spiritual energy, converge it in my hand, and based on the Twenty-four Solar Terms Order, we are very confident we can make that Rain of Spiritual Revival come early!"
Group ascension was a feature of that mysterious game in the past. In the ascension, the Minister of Agriculture played such a role.
The other professions contributed to collecting spiritual energy, constructing the Boundary Boat, waging wars, and other tasks.
Ji Che was clearly not one to listen to empty promises; he immediately inquired about the details: "How to do it?"
Zhao Xing said: "As I mentioned earlier, achieving the Establishing Tao Realm and surviving the Heavenly Tribulation provides the conditions to leave the Xuanhuang Realm."
"Then, I will choose a pathway and, with the collected spiritual energy, perform cloud movements above the Xuanhuang Realm to gather the spiritual energy cloud forming around it."
"After conducting the cloud movements, it's time to bring rain."
"A rain of spiritual revival!"
Ji Che watched Zhao Xing, who was pointing and commanding with high spirits, and couldn't help but stand up excitedly as well: "Big brother, if you succeed, you should be the State Preceptor of Great Zhou!"
"Hahaha, no need for a State Preceptor." Zhao Xing laughed, dismissed the scenes, and sat back down with Ji Che.
"Che, accomplishing the Ascension Master has many challenges. I need you to have firm confidence, the belief to overcome all obstacles, and absolute trust in me."
"Don't worry, big brother." Ji Che said seriously: "Life is no more than a thousand years, as fleeting as a white horse crossing a chink. For such a great endeavor, I will certainly stand by you unconditionally!"
Zhao Xing smiled, and Ji Che smiled; their hands clasped tightly together.
A moment later, having calmed down, the two began to discuss the specific implementation plan.
"Currently, the most crucial factor is manpower, that is, the number of strong individuals," Zhao Xing said. "If we don't have the power to sweep the Xuanhuang Realm, it will be difficult to bring about spiritual revival."
Ji Che nodded, "According to what big brother said, during the Primordial Qi Tide, major forces will seize opportunities to capture a large amount of spiritual energy. To make them hand it over, adequate military force is essential."
"Indeed." Zhao Xing laughed, "To not mention those far away, the stubborn Wu Yue God will definitely not ascend with us; he'll do everything possible to obstruct us."
"We can unite a portion of people, but this number is destined to be limited. A single ascension from the Xuanhuang Realm is bound not to take everyone along."
"It's not fearing scarcity but rather inequality. As long as such a situation arises, someone will inevitably go to great lengths to obstruct."
"But it's too early to talk about uniting people without absolute military force."
Zhao Xing and Ji Che returned to the initial question of the specific execution plan.
"This time, during the Primordial Qi Tide, even though it flows from the outside in and Great Zhou is geographically disadvantaged, we can employ means like war, negotiations, and coercion to send some strong individuals to key locations in the Land Outside to vie for opportunities to break into the Rule Realm."
Ji Che sighed, "It's fortunate that big brother became the Grand Minister of Agriculture." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Originally, after the great battle in the Western Extreme State, Great Zhou's foreign policy was one of peaceful development, digesting benefits obtained from the Western Extreme State's relics, and fully resisting the natural disasters brought by the tide.
Due to Liu Tianning's incomplete understanding of the Primordial Qi Tide, at least he hadn't figured out the regulation allowing breakthroughs from hurricanes.
Thus, Ji Che and others originally thought Great Zhou's opportunity for development was the best choice, and in the short term, they should not continue waging wars.
However, if that were the case, then in the following period, the various countries and the Sect World in the outside realm would likely experience an outburst in the number of strong individuals at some point, even surpassing Great Zhou, putting it in a difficult position.
Zhao Xing didn't follow Ji Che's words to criticize Liu Tianning. In fact, Lao Liu did pretty well; he just wasn't as good as Zhao Xing himself.
Zhao Xing skipped over the topic and continued discussing the specific plan for revival: "I will also need to borrow two Divine Artifacts from the Imperial Treasury. With these two artifacts, leading people abroad to seize opportunities will be much easier."
"What Divine Artifacts?" Ji Che asked.
