Starting from Comprehensive Martial Arts: Bu Dao Lu

Chapter 590 South China Sea Islands
Emperor Hongwu deeply agreed with the warning of the red-robed "Jie Cheng Huang". He knew very well that the current strength of the Ming Empire was extremely weak compared with other empires in the immortal world. Without the existence of this protection cycle, Emperor Ming might even face the crisis of annihilation once he was suppressed by other powerful empires. Therefore, he is very grateful that this protection order exists.

At the same time, Emperor Hongwu also saw the opportunities this protection order brought to the Ming Empire. During this protection period, the Ming Empire could use this time to accumulate strength, improve cultivation, and accumulate resources.

In addition, Emperor Hongwu also understood that this protection order was not permanent. The Ming Empire must improve its strength as much as possible within this period and be prepared to deal with future challenges. Only in this way, when the protection order expires, can the Ming Empire have enough strength and foundation to face the more intense situation in the earthly immortal world.

The red-robed "Jie Cheng Huang" immediately took out a piece of jade and a token. He explained: "This Fang Yujue records in detail the large and small forces in the Earth Immortal World, as well as the strength, territory, distribution of practitioners and other information of the human empires. These information can help the Ming Empire have a deeper understanding of the Earth Immortal World and prepare for the future. Be prepared for survival and development.”

Emperor Hongwu carefully took the jade jue, and felt the huge amount of information contained in it with his spiritual mind. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart for the thoughtful consideration of the red-robed "Jie Cheng Huang". With this information, the Ming Empire can adapt to the environment of the Earthly Immortal Realm more quickly and avoid unnecessary conflicts and misunderstandings.

Then, the red-robed "Boundary City God" handed over another token and said: "This token is the token of our line of City Gods. After the Ming Empire moved to the Earthly Immortal Realm, it only needed to hand over this token to the local land." Gods will contact the Ming Empire to provide necessary help and support.”

Emperor Hongwu took the token and felt the mysterious power flowing on it. He solemnly put it away.

After doing this, the red-robed "Boundary City God" continued: "I will secretly protect the Ming Empire on the Qinghua Realm side, and with the protection of Shouyang Mountain, I think there will be no problems. Lord, don't worry."

"Everything is done today, and it's time for me to leave. I hope that the Ming Empire can establish its power in all the worlds and achieve great things."

After saying that, the figure of the red-robed "Jie Cheng Huang" flashed and turned into a red light and disappeared into the hall.

It is most appropriate to inquire about the news about Emperor Tianqi Rensheng and Zhu Qi through the red-robed "Jie Cheng Huang".

However, the red-robed "Jie Cheng Huang" did not know why Emperor Tianqi Rensheng attached so much importance to the Ming Empire; moreover, he also knew that he could not reveal information about Emperor Tianqi Rensheng at will. After all, this involves the will and decision-making of Emperor Tianqi Rensheng. As a subordinate god, how can he dare to talk nonsense about Emperor Tianqi Rensheng.

In Emperor Hongwu's view, Zhu Qi must be the reason why the Ming Empire was able to gain the favor of Emperor Rensheng of Tianqi and the secret protection of the Earthly Lineage City Gods. He firmly believed that without Zhu Qi's existence, the Ming Empire would never have had such an opportunity. Otherwise, there are countless forces in the world, and how could the Ming Empire be qualified to get this opportunity?

The red-robed "Jie Cheng Huang" came suddenly and left hastily.

Emperor Hongwu was indeed full of doubts and expectations about Emperor Tianqi Rensheng favoring the Ming Empire, and he also hoped to get some information about Lao Jiu by asking about Emperor Tianqi Rensheng. However, the hasty departure of the red-robed "Jie Cheng Huang" caused him to lose the opportunity.

Therefore, the red-robed "Jie Cheng Huang" could only choose to leave in a hurry. He was neither willing to offend the Ming Empire, which Emperor Tianqi Rensheng valued, nor dared to reveal information about Emperor Tianqi Rensheng at will.

Although the departure of the red-robed "Jie Cheng Huang" made Emperor Hongwu feel a little regretful and helpless, he also understood that as long as he worked harder to manage and develop the Ming Empire, he would be able to solve these mysteries in the future.

Although Emperor Hongwu was a little helpless about the Ming Empire's migration to the immortal world, he also understood that this was an unchangeable fact. The last time the envoy from Shouyang Mountain came to the Ming Empire, they just informed the Ming Empire in advance so that Emperor Hongwu could be prepared!
This time, the envoy from Shouyang Mountain came again, but brought a specific time and plan!

Since the outcome could not be changed, the monarchs and ministers of the Ming Empire began to actively prepare. Simply put, Shouyang Mountain gave the Ming Empire thousands of years of migration time, which was enough.

Moreover, Emperor Hongwu also learned a lot about the Earthly Immortal World from the envoys of Shouyang Mountain. Although it is somewhat different from what the red-robed "Jie Cheng Huang" said, the general situation of the Earthly Immortal Realm described by the two men is completely consistent. This gave Emperor Hongwu a clearer understanding of the earthly immortal world, and at the same time, Emperor Hongwu finally felt relieved.

He believed that Shouyang Mountain and the red-robed "Jie Cheng Huang" had no ill will towards the Ming Empire and that they were all helping the Ming Empire.

However, Emperor Hongwu was not the only one who was suspicious of the emperor.

Although the Ming Empire unified the Qinghua Realm and prepared to move to the Earthly Immortal Realm, this was undoubtedly a great event for the empire, but in the vast universe, this was really only an insignificant ripple.

In the universe, powerful forces are as bright as the stars, each competing for hegemony, resources, and power. In such an environment, the rise and migration of a cultivation empire, although significant in its own view, is only a drop in the ocean from the perspective of the entire universe.

Therefore, except for the Shouyang Mountain and Calabash clones of the human race, other forces paid almost zero attention to the Ming Empire.

On such a huge stage in the universe, the rise and fall of every force is normal. Unless there is a particularly eye-catching move or the strength reaches a certain level, it will be difficult to attract the attention of other forces.

It is not surprising that Shouyang Mountain pays attention to the Ming Empire, because every hero who rises in the world is an extremely valuable talent for the human race, let alone an empire that unifies the cultivation world. As the leader of the human race, Shouyang Mountain naturally attaches great importance to such forces.

Shouyang Mountain also has high hopes for the Ming Empire, hoping that it will emerge in the world of immortals and achieve higher achievements.

The current situation in the Earthly Immortal World is chaotic, with various empires constantly competing for hegemony. Against this background, Shouyang Mountain chose an extremely favorable development location for the Ming Empire - a large island in the South China Sea. This large island is not only rich in resources, but also located in a strategic choke point, connecting the South China Sea and Nanfangzhou, which is of extremely important strategic significance.

The human race wants to cultivate a dynasty in the earthly immortal world, so Nanfangbu Continent is a place where the human dynasty must unify. Therefore, the current Ming Empire is not suitable for going directly to Nanfangbu Continent.

In contrast, although Dongsheng Shenzhou, Xiniu Hezhou and Beiju Luzhou can also accommodate the development of the Ming Empire, the difficulty of establishing a powerful dynasty in these places will be greatly increased. Historically, the human dynasties in the Earthly Immortal World all rose from the Nanfangbu Continent, and then gradually unified the entire human race in the Earthly Immortal World.
