"After purging the nobles of the various duchies, the next step is the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace members."
"They are even simpler. Treason is a capital offense. I can directly execute Xue Beng and Xue Xing. As for Xue Ye, because his younger brother Xue Beng and his biological son Xue Xing committed treason, he fell ill from anger and, already suffering from chronic fatigue, he could simply die from a sudden fit of rage due to this matter."
"Once the political affairs of the larger duchies are arranged and a period of transition, at most half a year, I will be able to integrate the power of the entire Empire. After that, it will be the integration of Spirit Master forces within the Empire."
"This is even simpler. After all, your soul spirit is hard currency. With the soul spirit quotas alone, you can win over many Spirit Master forces. Furthermore, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect publicly supports me, and secretly, with the cooperation of Spirit Hall, the integration of Spirit Master forces will be even more convenient."
"How do you plan to deal with the Clear Sky Sect?" Shi Quan suddenly asked.
Qian Renxue's brows furrowed slightly. The Clear Sky Sect was undoubtedly the biggest troublemaker among the many Spirit Master forces, and the most difficult to handle.
"The Clear Sky Sect is special. My grandfather once made a promise with Tang Chen that Spirit Hall would never set foot on the mountain where the Clear Sky Sect is located. I will not move against the Clear Sky Sect for now."
"Moreover, Tang Chen is incredibly powerful, even a bit stronger than my grandfather. Although he is currently missing, my grandfather said that Tang Chen is not dead. Tang Chen is a factor that must be feared."
Shi Quan's fingers gently tapped the armrest of the chair, and he said calmly, "Tang Chen is the Slaughter King of Slaughter City. He currently has no consciousness of his own. If you want to destroy the Clear Sky Sect, there's no need to worry about Tang Chen's retaliation."
"You want to destroy the Clear Sky Sect?" Qian Renxue's eyes showed a hint of interest upon hearing this.
"Tang Hao died by my hand, and the Clear Sky Sect's two Legacy Spirit Bones are in my possession. The Clear Sky Sect will certainly not let that go easily. That old fellow Tang Chen has something I want, so a battle is inevitable. Plus, with Tang San, that evil Spirit Master, the Clear Sky Sect's existence is like a ticking time bomb, so before it explodes, I plan to dismantle it first."
Qian Renxue stood up slightly, "When do you plan to make your move? Do you need my help?"
Shi Quan chuckled, "Once I Breakthrough to Titled Douluo, I will gather the power of the Spirit Beasts to directly annihilate the Clear Sky Sect. If you can lend me a few Titled Douluo, I would be very willing to accept."
"Titled Douluo?" Qian Renxue's body straightened abruptly, her hands involuntarily clenched a bit, and she said in a condensed voice, "Shi Quan, what is your spirit power Rank now?"
"My spirit power is already Rank eighty-three."
"What?!" Even Qian Renxue couldn't help but be startled, staring intently at Shi Quan, her eyes filled with disbelief. After a long while, she slowly sat back down and said in a deep voice, "When you move to annihilate the Clear Sky Sect, notify me in advance. I can deploy at least two Titled Douluo for you."
"Good." Shi Quan continued, "When do you plan to act against those nobles?"
"During the Soul Spirit Assembly."
"That is indeed a good time."
The Soul Spirit Assembly originated from the thousand soul spirit quotas given by Shi Quan. The so-called assembly was actually a meeting ceremony where a thousand people would undergo soul spirit Fusion.
The location of the event was somewhere outside the Star Dou Great Forest.
This meeting ceremony involved various forces across the continent. The Spirit Masters sent were all the chosen talents of their respective forces, which would inevitably attract the attention of many forces. At the same time, a large number of Spirit Masters would accompany these chosen talents to participate in this grand event.
Using the assembly to divert the attention of all parties, when everyone's focus was on the assembly and they were most relaxed, Qian Renxue would then make her move at this time, which would undoubtedly deliver a devastating blow to those ducal nobles.
"Oh, by the way, on my way back, I encountered a group of Wolf Thief massacring a village. I dealt with them, but by the time I found them, most of the villagers were already dead or injured. Although the main force was wiped out, it's still best to send people to encircle and suppress them in the nearby mountains to prevent any remnants. Here is the specific location." Shi Quan took out a map with the exact location already marked.
Qian Renxue looked at the map and nodded. Shi Quan continued, "I plan to collect Power Of Faith. I might need your help to promote it then."
"Faith?" Qian Renxue understood in her heart and nodded, saying, "It's not easy to make people generate faith; it takes time. But I will do my best to help you. However, what faith do you want to promote? Life? Plants?"
"No." Shi Quan shook his head, "My faith is Reincarnation! I will perfect the concept of Reincarnation for you before the Soul Spirit Assembly, and then you just need to help me spread it. The rest can be left to ferment."
"Reincarnation?" Qian Renxue looked puzzled. This was the first time she had heard this term. Seeing Shi Quan so confident, she still nodded and agreed.
Without lingering too long.
After Shi Quan left the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, he returned to Dugu Bo's courtyard for a day, then set off with Gu Yuena to return to the Star Dou Great Forest to begin preparing the soul spirits needed for the Soul Spirit Assembly. Besides Shi Quan, Gu Yuena and Di Tian also knew how to create soul spirits, which greatly reduced Shi Quan's workload.
Shi Quan had already obtained a list of a thousand people from Qian Renxue in advance. The list contained detailed descriptions of their Martial Spirit and strength. Based on the list, Shi Quan and the others could now extract the soul spirits in advance, which greatly alleviated the pressure on the day of the event.
Based on his memories from his previous Life, Shi Quan began to outline the legend of the Underworld.
He knew about the well-known Ten Yama Kings and the Five Ghost Emperors, but he wasn't sure of their specific names, only some of the more famous ones.
For example, among the Ten Yama Kings, Shi Quan only knew the two most famous ones: King Yama and King Qin Guang. He didn't know any of the Five Ghost Emperors.
Besides these, of course, Shi Quan also knew some other well-known ghost gods, such as Judge Cui Fujun and Zhong Kui.
There were the Black and White Impermanence, who were responsible for collecting souls in the human World, the Ox-Head and Horse-Face, who guarded the gates of Hell, and Meng Po, who was responsible for making all beings forget their past lives before the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
There was also Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who made the grand vow, "Hell is not empty, I will not become a Buddha."
The Great Emperor of Mount Tai, the Great Emperor Fengdu of the North Yin,
And the most crucial one, Goddess Houtu.
The Six Paths of Reincarnation and the Underworld were actually evolved by Goddess Houtu through her embodiment of the Dao.
Although he didn't know these detailed contents, Shi Quan knew that the so-called Underworld was essentially an organization. He didn't need to elaborate on the origins and abilities of each person. He only needed to generally describe the duties of the Ten Yama Kings and the Five Ghost Emperors, and based on what he understood, outline a management system similar to the mortal World with a complete Rank system, and write a brand new World, making people believe in the authenticity of this legend, believing that the World they lived in had the cycle and continuation of Life. The so-called Power Of Faith would then naturally and gradually emerge.
