Chapter 375 Preparations for the Coronation
Chapter 375 Preparations for the Coronation
When Gu Yuchuan emerged from seclusion, it was nearly a year later. He used this time to summarize and consolidate all his cultivation and spells. Now, he had a much deeper grasp of all his spells and magical treasures. It might not seem like he had much power to use them, but in reality, they greatly helped him in combat. He felt that he was already an invincible existence in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
Finally, the Dragon Palace and the Imperial City were completed. Now, it was time to establish the Dynasty. After leaving the pass, he packed his things with everyone and headed to Longxing City.
This was the first time his subordinates had come to Longxing City. Everyone was very excited. They felt the spiritual energy here and saw such splendor. Every face was full of smiles and longing. They all wanted to have a place here.
Gu Yuchuan placed his blessed land into the Dragon Palace. Instantly, the Dragon Palace began to change. First, its size changed. The Dragon Palace was already quite large, but now it had increased tenfold, which was no small change.
Secondly, the spiritual energy within the Dragon Palace is even more abundant. A natural array has even appeared around it. This is an array inherent to this blessed land, a fifth-order grand array called the Exquisite Array. This means that the Dragon Palace has absolutely no safety issues in the entire Azure Cloud Realm. A fifth-order array is comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator. Even they would find it difficult to break this array. This is truly an unexpected delight.
Within this Dragon Palace, two other plants were born: the Purifying White Lotus and the Heavenly Heart Fruit. Both were spiritual objects inherent to this exquisite blessed land. The former was a fifth-order spiritual object, while the latter was a peak fourth-order spiritual object, both of which were extremely precious.
The Purifying White Lotus is not only a medicinal herb, but also a valuable treasure for refining weapons. It even has the effect of bringing the dead back to life and healing the wounded. The herbs he refines can even bring back to life those whose souls have not yet dissipated within three hours of death. This ability to reverse yin and yang is enough to demonstrate his power. Not to mention, this is only his first effect.
He is also a master craftsman who can refine spiritual treasures, endowing them with unparalleled defensive power. This defense can even protect both the physical body and the soul, and it also has the effect of trapping people. Once Gu Yuchuan advances to the fifth level of weapon refiner, he will definitely be able to refine a spiritual treasure. The power of spiritual treasures can be seen from the Demon Lord's battle against the Immortal Lord. In the hands of a Nascent Soul cultivator, a spiritual treasure is equivalent to a Golden Core cultivator having a top-grade magic weapon, and its power is extraordinary.
This isn't all the effects of the purifying white lotus. Like the Bodhi tree, it also has the effect of simple enlightenment. If you sit on it to cultivate, you can increase your comprehension to a certain extent. You can also enhance your understanding of mysteries that you couldn't comprehend before. It's definitely a good thing, and it can even greatly help you comprehend the laws in the future.
Gu Yuchuan was very fond of this Purifying White Lotus. Although there weren't many, it was a good thing whether he kept it for himself or used it to trade with powerful figures. It was a great fortune.
The second is the Heavenly Heart Fruit. Compared to the Purifying White Lotus, it is indeed much weaker. It is a spiritual object that is purely for consumption. It has two main functions: one is to improve cultivation level, and the other is to increase comprehension. It is a very good spiritual fruit that is purely for improving cultivation level. Although this kind of thing has a single effect, it is still very popular. Its quantity and growth time are also much better than the Purifying White Lotus. It can be sold as a specialty of their Dragon Palace.
He was quite satisfied with this blessed land. Now, the first thing he needed to do was propose marriage, hoping to marry Mo Nan'an into the family. He hoped she could oversee the ceremony during the coronation ceremony. Otherwise, having Jianjia oversee it was out of the question; Gu Yuchuan didn't want to do anything too drastic. He wasn't even sure Jianjia could handle the duties of a virtuous consort, let alone this kind of situation. However, currently, only Pei Yu could lead the proposal, so he decided to let Pei Yu and Hu Mingyu go with it.
It wouldn't be considered impolite to bring a Golden Core stage expert and one's own disciple along with sufficient betrothal gifts.
He took out two high-grade magic treasures, two Heavenly Heart Fruits, and 80,000 spirit stones, packed them up, and handed them to Pei Yu.
“Pei Yu, take Hu Mingxin to the Cloud Sea Heavenly Palace to propose marriage to me. The proposed marriage partner is Demon King Mo Nan'an. This is something that I discussed with the Demon Lord. It's just a formality. Go quickly and come back quickly. The rest of you, start preparing the coronation and sacrificial ceremony with me.”
The enthronement ceremony and the offering of sacrifices to Heaven were also very complicated matters. They were different from the sacrifices to Heaven in the feudal dynasties of the previous era, which were just a ritual to consolidate their rule.
But the current rituals for worshipping Heaven are different. There is a real Heavenly Way in this world. You need to establish a connection with the Heavenly Way before you can establish this dynasty. This places requirements on the ritual. If you are not careful, you may end up going completely wrong.
After Pei Yu and the others left, the family began preparations. Gu Yuchuan originally planned to hold the enthronement ceremony in the imperial city, since the Dragon Palace didn't have enough space and there would be many people attending. However, now that the Dragon Palace had become a blessed land, the space was sufficient, and they could make a large open space for the ceremony and entertaining guests.
As for safety, this is a blessed land. Even if a Venerable One makes a move, it can be stopped. As for the Nascent Soul stage, even if a being like the Heavenly Roc Demon Emperor makes a move in this blessed land, Gu Yuchuan can suppress him. Besides, with so many guests, there might even be a Nascent Soul Venerable One visiting. Who would dare to make a move? Wouldn't that be courting death?
Now we're starting to prepare the items for the coronation ceremony. The first item is called the Heavenly Way Platform, which is the hub connecting the dynasty with the Heavenly Way. Only with this item can we connect with the Heavenly Way and gain its approval.
His construction embodies boundless ambition; it requires spirit stones to build, and this Heavenly Dao Platform alone might cost 100,000 spirit stones. However, Gu Yuchuan has never lacked spirit stones. During this enthronement ceremony, the spectators will surely bestow upon him a great deal of wealth. This is essentially a risk-free business; he can already imagine how much wealth he will receive.
He took out spirit stones and began to build the Heavenly Dao Platform. Fortunately, he was a weapon refiner, so refining this thing was a piece of cake for him. There was no difficulty at all. Even a level two weapon refiner could easily refine it successfully. Soon, the Heavenly Dao Platform was completed.
The Heavenly Dao Platform was entirely white, like white jade, and it exuded an imposing aura. Gu Yuchuan looked at it with a smile in his eyes, very happy, as the first step had been completed.
