Chapter 549: 497 – The Division of Spiritual Consciousness, Changes in the World.



Once he differentiated the strong spiritual consciousness, even a powerful cultivator at the Spirit Realm Sixth Level would find it impossible to deceive Pei Xuanjing.

“Since the Dean has perfected his plan, then Old Taoist can rest assured,” Qingyang Zi laughed.

Since he had agreed to manage the Taoist Academy for Pei Xuanjing, he naturally had to bear the responsibility. Therefore, after identifying this issue, he was quite worried and attempted to find a solution. If this problem could not be resolved, it would inevitably affect Pei Xuanjing’s subsequent plans.

However, even after consulting some people, they were either limited by their strength or vision and had not come up with an appropriate solution, which made Qingyang Zi feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, when Pei Xuanjing asked, he promptly pointed out this oversight, hoping that Pei Xuanjing wouldn’t neglect it. Learning that Pei Xuanjing already had a solution, he naturally felt overjoyed.

After they finished discussing this topic, they talked about the great changes in the world during the years when Pei Xuanjing was in seclusion. In just a short span of five years, the world underwent earth-shaking changes.

Firstly, the changes in the Great Ming Divine Dynasty. In recent years, the Great Ming Divine Dynasty had undergone rapid development, particularly with the lure of the Divine Position related to their lifespan. Government Officials from the Great Ming Divine Dynasty showed unprecedented enthusiasm and actively improved their abilities.

Especially after refining the Divine Positions, they used their right to act on behalf of the heavens to balance and control the weather, resulting in abundant harvests across the nation.

After annexing territories outside the border spanning thousands of miles, growing population pressure within the Great Ming was alleviated. Numerous commoners migrated outside the border where lands were distributed.

There was still a lot of land left in the hands of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, even after distributing countless lands to various forces, as their fiefs.

Additionally, these forces, though they acquired fiefs, also lacked civilians. Therefore, it was a win-win situation as countless civilians were relocated beyond the border.

With the authority of the Divine Position in hand, the Great Ming Divine Dynasty used these powers to improve the land and weather conditions outside the border, making it more suitable for habitation.

Though everyone knew clearly that such actions would inevitably make these forces even more powerful, the Great Ming Divine Dynasty had to do it because the burgeoning population was a burden. If the issue wasn’t solved timely, even a promoted Divine Dynasty could not guarantee the prevention of big conflicts in the future.

On the other hand, by relocating people outside the border – even if these people were to be absorbed by other forces – it might potentially sow the seeds of problems in the future. However, now they could seize the opportunity for a rapid rise in power. As long as they had a powerful Divine Dynasty, they could solve these future issues.

While regular government officials might not comprehend which is the lesser of the two evils, the Council Elders understood it. Hence, after the Emperor and many Council Elders made the decision, almost no one dared to oppose it.

Minister of the Ministry of Rites Yan Weizhong personally presided over this, and even a rising general under Wang Boan named Yu Xunya was sent to carry out this task in the aftermath of the war beyond the borders.

“Speaking of Yu Xunya, there is an interesting event, I wonder if the Dean heard of it?” Qingyang Zi said, laughing as he brought up this person.

Pei Xuanjing’s spiritual consciousness moved, recalling when he heard this name.

Yu Xunya, a merit official from the Great Ming. His ancestors followed the founding Emperor of the Great Ming to establish the empire. Later, they received the inheritance of lands and, even though they were not given titles, they were also hereditary chieftains. By the time of Yu Xunya, he was a hereditary chieftain of a hundred households.

Later when Yu Xunya grew up, he was given the position of chieftain of a thousand households due to his outstanding natural martial arts talent. From then on, he rose steadily, making significant achievements.

During his tenure as a chieftain, an interesting incident occurred. His place was close to the South Chan Sect of Buddhism. Hearing of the formidable martial arts skills of the Chan Sect disciples, he took the initiative to challenge all the monks of the South Chan Sect at his own realm with martial arts. He defeated all the monks, and never once lost. The members of the South Chan Sect did not blame him for this and even sent disciples to learn from him, following his leadership.

This incident gave him great fame, and he caught the attention of Wang Boan.

“Those old guys from Buddhism really know how to make hay while the sun shines, they shamelessly tagged along,” Qingyang Zi sneered.

Being challenged by a chieftain from the imperial court and being defeated every single time, any other force that suffered such a disgrace would politely ask the person to leave.

Only the Buddhism Sect would see someone else’s potential and, ignoring the loss of face, want to take advantage of it.

Pei Xuanjing chuckled, “Every time-honored force has its unique characteristics.”

He didn’t mock their idea, indeed, this move from the Buddhism Sect was impressive. All that aside, didn’t the Taoist School play the same game as the Buddhism Sect, and even exceeded them sometimes?

After all, what’s the matter with losing face? To these age-old forces, benefit was the most concrete thing, and everything else could be abandoned.

The smile on Qingyang Zi’s face froze, apparently, he also remembered some things about the Taoist School.

He changed the subject, “Speaking of which, someone from the Demonic Cult has emerged, who has quite a connection with the Dean.”

“Oh?” Pei Xuanjing was somewhat surprised, “How could I be related to someone from the Demonic Cult?”

He had few interactions with the Demonic Cult, so he could not figure out how he could be related to them.

“Does the Dean still remember Blood Demon Yang Tinghe?” Qingyang Zi mentioned when he saw Pei Xuanjing had no impression.

“Yang Tinghe, didn’t he already die? Is it related to him?” Pei Xuanjing had a flash of surprise in his eyes.

Blood Demon Yang Tinghe was merely a trifling opponent whom Pei Xuanjing had met. But because of his death, he took the opportunity to seize power and start his plan. Therefore, he still had some memory of this man.

At that time, the people from the Demonic Cult were involved in the assassination attempt on Emperor Wuzong in Tiandu. Once Blood Demon Yang Tinghe’s identity as a member of the Demonic Cult was exposed, it was unlikely that anyone would believe that he had not participated it. As a result, the entire Yang Clan was imprisoned.

Qingyang Zi sighed, “Although Yang Tinghe died, and his family was connected to it, it’s a pity that some people escaped. One of them was Yang Tinghe’s eldest son, Yang Yongxiu.”
