Chapter 228

Looking at the three portions of origin in his hand.

Qin Mu suddenly discovered that he had found a way to quickly accumulate origin.

Therefore...

He summoned the system again.

He issued a command: "Continue to deduce and find the next masterless world."

The technological world far exceeded other civilizations.

It was incredibly vast.

Development at each stage required dozens of times more resources than other civilizations.

And devouring masterless worlds was the fastest way.

When encountering those low-level Transcendent civilizations, he could hand them over to the Great Yan Kingdom.

Let them train their troops.

And when encountering powerful Middle Divine Worlds...

He could directly drive the Thirty-Three Layers and the Underworld into them to suppress them!

"Ding! Simulation deduction function has been activated!"

"Ding! Currently collecting unknown void data, randomly screening for coordinates of potentially existing masterless worlds!"

The system light bloomed.

It operated at high speed and began the deduction.

Blue Star.

The 56th year of the Great Yan Calendar.

During these days when Qin Mu was conquering the Divine Soul World.

Fifteen years had passed on Blue Star.

In these fifteen years.

The Great Yan Kingdom had once again undergone earth-shaking changes.

The atmosphere of scientific research for all citizens had long been deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Craftsmen...

Had become the most noble profession in the Great Yan Kingdom.

Everyone realized that the changes the Great Yan Kingdom had today all stemmed from the various inventions and creations made by the craftsmen.

The national strength of the Great Yan Kingdom was also rapidly climbing.

Breakthrough developments had been achieved in many aspects such as economy, military, agriculture, and education.

And the Great Yan Research Institute...

In these years, had been constantly studying the three volumes of the Heavenly Book.

Breaking down the three volumes of the Heavenly Book into various easy-to-understand theoretical knowledge.

Popularizing it nationwide through block printing and papermaking.

Establishing schools widely, selecting young students to enter, and teaching knowledge in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and other aspects.

More than ten thousand types of inventions and creations appeared every year.

And the population of the Great Yan Kingdom...

After encouraging childbirth and fifteen years of growth.

Had also reached 300 million!

But there was one thing.

That had been troubling the 300 million subjects of the Great Yan Kingdom.

Because their Emperor...

Was getting older and older.

This year, Yan was already eighty-four years old!

Although all the doctors in the Great Yan Kingdom were studying medical technology.

But birth, aging, sickness, and death...

Were, after all, irreversible natural laws.

With their current medical means, it was simply impossible to make the body regain vitality.

In the imperial palace.

A middle-aged imperial physician knelt before Yan, his expression full of gloom.

Yan looked at him and said indifferently: "No need to hide it from Me, I know My own body, just speak directly, how many more years can I live?"

The imperial physician knocked his head on the ground and sighed: "Your Majesty... you have at most five years of life left."

Yan's aged eyes flickered.

He muttered: "Five more years?"

He had been on the throne for more than fifty years.

He had already built the Great Yan Kingdom into an iron-clad empire.

Science and technology were prosperous, and the lives of the people were becoming increasingly convenient.

It was just that...

Decades ago.

The scenes of cultivators flying and escaping, and the Witch race's invincible physical bodies, appeared in his mind from time to time.

Although the current Great Yan Kingdom was powerful...

It was still far inferior to those cultivators.

They had only grasped the fur of the power of science and technology that the God had once spoken of.

Even the three volumes of the Heavenly Book...

Had not been thoroughly studied.

Yan sighed long.

He was silent for a long time.

Only then did he continue to speak: "Pass down the order, in five years, I want to select a successor from among the people of the world."

As soon as the words fell.

The ministers kneeling below instantly widened their eyes.

Looking at Yan in disbelief.

They began to advise him one after another.

"Your Majesty! This cannot be! Your Majesty has seven sons, each of them a dragon among men, all capable of being Emperor, why the need for selection?"

"Yes, the world is Your Majesty's world, the successor can only be selected from Your Majesty's descendants!"

"I see that Your Majesty's eldest son is extremely intelligent, mature and steady, and will surely be able to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the country!!"

"Your Majesty..."

Facing the advice of the ministers.

Yan waved his hand, and the ministers instantly became quiet.

"My seven sons?"

Yan laughed at himself: "They do have some ability, but they are not even as good as Me... how can they be Emperor?"

The ministers heard this.

Could not help but swallow their saliva.

Yan was the greatest emperor in history, and this was the consensus of the people of the world!

Since ascending the throne.

He had led the Great Yan Kingdom to overcome thorns and thistles, conquering the wilderness and the sea, making the national strength of the Great Yan Kingdom dozens of times stronger than before.

He had even crossed worlds to conquer a Transcendent World!

Capturing 400,000 experts proficient in martial arts.

All kinds of achievements, unprecedented.

To want to surpass Yan...

How difficult is this?
