Chapter 1240

Su Xiao: "That does sound right! By the way, can I become the ruler of my own world?"

Hu Yifei: "Probably. Is there anyone in your world stronger than you?"

Su Xiao: "Not really."

Zhang Taixuan: "You might as well try. You've got nothing better to do."

Su Xiao: "Taixuan brother, you make it sound like I'm idle!"

Zhang Taixuan: "Aren't you?"

Su Xiao: "Fine, I guess I am!"

Princess Chuyun: "Can I try too?"

Zhang Taixuan: "You? Too weak. Go cultivate first. At your current level, achieving Unity with the Dao is nearly impossible."

Princess Chuyun: "Alright!"

Anlieta: "With this method of rulership, can't I also condense the Jade Disc of Creation and rule my world, and regain my freedom?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Exactly."

Anlieta: "Then I need to earn plenty of points... Though the Dao Lord only sold a few billion points, I still can't afford that much in the short term—I'll have to take it slow."

Su Xiao: "Does the Queen want to rule the Heavenly Dao too?"

Anlieta: "If it doesn't restrict my freedom, ruling the Heavenly Dao is very appealing."

Su Xiao: "That's true. By the way, how do you plan to earn points? Not just by selling Faith Crystals, right? Those keep generating as long as believers exist, but they're limited by population."

population is quite limited, isn't it?"

Anlieta: "Besides that, I'll also grow spiritual herbs. Didn't you all suggest this before? Now that I've unified the continent and brought peace, it's time to farm. Hehe—with all the races across the continent helping me farm, I'll earn points fast."

With the entire continent's ten thousand races helping me farm, I'll earn points extremely fast."

Su Xiao: "The whole continent farming spiritual herbs together?"

Anlieta: "Right. I'll also spread the Immortal Martial Dao to Chuyun as a reward for ordinary people. What do you think?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Of course. But I must warn you: once the continent is unified and external threats vanish, internal corruption will inevitably rise. You must create some external pressure."

external pressure is the key."

Su Xiao: "??? No way, Taixuan brother, you're pulling this trick again?"

Zhang Taixuan: "It's human nature. An individual slacking off, living lazily and comfortably—no problem. We all crave that life."

Zhang Taixuan: "But if an entire group, a whole nation, loses all pressure and becomes lazy and complacent—the consequences will be terrifying!"

Su Xiao 5.5: "That actually makes sense. One person slacking off feels nice. But if nobles, soldiers, officials—all layers—start slacking, the empire's collapse won't be far off."

Anlieta: "Really? That does sound right! Then what should I do?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Easy. I'll condense a few ordinary Beast Laws and seal them deep within the primordial wilderness."

Zhang Taixuan: "Then announce it to the world, invent a reason for the beasts' origin, and instill urgency in the people and officials. That way, everyone will have motivation to strive."

Su Xiao: "Seal it away?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Of course it must be sealed away. I just want the people to feel some pressure, not to become a great villain and plunge them into misery. Once the people's strength is sufficient…"

Zhang Taixuan: "Of course I'll seal them. I just want to give the people some pressure—I'm not a villain who wants to plunge them into suffering. Once their strength grows enough, I'll open a crack in the seal so they can enter and hunt. The evolved beasts are a resource too!"
