Chapter 629: Chapter 335: Three Nascent Souls Assassinate Gu Zhan

Regarding the emergence of the Four Major Side Sects,

Gu Zhan had long been aware.

The revival of Spiritual Qi is no small matter, the commotion has always been significant, and every change creates a stir. Although over the past year, Gu Zhan has been too busy to touch the ground, as the Emperor of the Wu Dynasty, he is highly knowledgeable about world information.

Now that Spiritual Qi has fully revived, those worlds hidden by Great Power Cultivators using Great Divine Techniques have all appeared. Numerous continents have emerged overseas, expanding the human world considerably, and what were once vast seas have become land.

And within this year,

many top-tier Immortal Sects have successively appeared, especially in the past two months, they have emerged one after another.

However, during this time,

Gu Zhan has been busy reclaiming the Nine Provinces of the Wu Dynasty, and those appearing Immortal Sects seem quite wary of the Wu Dynasty’s power, so no one has been looking for trouble.

But outside the Wu Dynasty, various transformations are occurring across the world.

Gu Zhan is aware of these pieces of information, but they have always been within his expectations. Even the numerous courtiers of the Martial Kingdom follow Gu Zhan’s will and are actively preparing for his next plan.

Now, Kong Xi suddenly says to pause,

which leaves Gu Zhan somewhat puzzled.

Kong Xi continued, "Your Majesty, now that Spiritual Qi has fully revived, quite a number of top-tier Immortal Sects of Confucianism have also appeared, so the disciple has learned some news.

Originally, the various forces in the Cultivation Realm wanted to restore the city-state and tribal system of Ancient Times, each governing its own, but recently the Four Major Side Sects have emerged and held a meeting.

The Four Major Side Sects highly favor the current Court and Imperial system, believing that this system is more advantageous for unifying the Human Race’s power to resist the Demon Race, so they have directly decided to implement the Court system."

Gu Zhan nodded slightly,

Thinking that this cognitive shift in the Cultivation Realm was normal. Previously, those Cultivation Sects had been eager to restore the city-state and tribal system of Ancient Times, which Gu Zhan could not understand, as it was purely reversing the course of history.

However, later, Gu Zhan could understand because the first and second batches of those appearing Immortal Sects’ cultivators grew up in the Boundary Mini Grotto Heaven, knowing nothing of the mundane world. They were only aware of the relics left by the ancient cultivators who hid in the mini Grotto Heavens; they were merely following ancient footsteps.

But now the third batch of appearing cultivators are different.

These are top-tier forces, mastering the Grotto Heavens where time flows slowly. Many among them are the very batch of cultivators from Ancient Times, having experienced the city-state and tribal system; by comparison, they naturally understand that the current Court system is the advancement of civilization. So now, these Immortal Sect cultivators wanting to implement the Court system didn’t surprise Gu Zhan too much.

"What do they plan to do?" Gu Zhan asked.

Kong Xi stated, "The Four Major Side Sects each take the boundary areas where they appeared as their base to establish Four Immortal Dynasties, expanding towards the originally left human territories, leaving part of the territory to distribute to other Cultivation forces.

According to the world situation discussed at that meeting of the Four Major Side Sects, the Human World would be divided into Four Immortal Dynasties and Eight Great Dynasties.

They are imitating the previous human setting in which various forces could exist within the dynastic boundaries, while in the Four Immortal Dynasties, the overall control naturally belongs to the Four Major Side Sects. Within the realm of the Immortal Dynasty, Cultivation forces remain dominant, controlling the Court to govern the Human World!"

Gu Zhan squinted slightly,

He roughly understood.

Just like before in the Xia Kingdom, where the two sects of the Buddhist Sect and the two major Martial Arts Holy Lands, regardless of imperial dynastic changes or the chaos across the world, under their controlled scope, they always stood above royal power. In the Xia Kingdom, although the Royal Family was the common lord, in reality, the world was controlled by these three sects, four noble families, eight sects, and other super forces managing local forces.

And now the so-called Four Immortal Dynasties and Eight Great Dynasties follow this very model.

Take, for instance, the Talisman Sect, which controls one of the Immortal Dynasties and stands above any one Immortal Dynasty. No matter how this Immortal Dynasty changes, it remains supremely positioned, while those other Cultivation forces are akin to Noble Families and Clans, both collectively maintaining an Immortal Dynasty and secretly controlling localities.

Gu Zhan squinted slightly again, asking, "But in this world, in the mundane world, isn’t my Wu Dynasty the number one kingdom? How do the Four Major Side Sects plan for my Wu Dynasty?"

Kong Xi cupped his hands and said, "The Wu Dynasty is indeed one of the Eight Great Dynasties.

For the Four Major Side Sects, they cannot be like Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, that do not require worldly territories to become the world’s premier level. The Four Major Side Sects need territories, but there are inherent laws in the human world, and they, too, compete among themselves.

But now that the Spiritual Qi has just revived, and the human world is in disarray needing development, they naturally do not wish to acquire a ravaged world, so they will be very restrained, which is why they very harmoniously divided into Four Immortal Dynasties, and left Eight Great Dynasties.

The reason for planning Eight Great Dynasties is merely twofold: first, with numerous Immortal Sects across the world, they must release some benefits to maintain peace and appease the cultivators; second, among the Four Sects, there needs to be a buffer to avoid conflicts, otherwise, if the Four Major Side Sects begin reckless inter-sect warfare, the human world would surely fall into ruins!
