Chapter 1263: Strong Push
"Roar!"
With a mournful cry, the crimson-gold Golden Dragon of Luck could finally no longer sustain itself; it flew into the void and gradually dissipated.
The dissipation of the Golden Dragon of Luck signified that the Liu Han Dynasty, this great unified dynasty, had officially come to an end.
This dynasty, which had been maintained for thousands of years, finally ended in the Divine Capital Luoyang.
As Zhang Jiao walked onto the altar and placed the Imperial Jade Seal upon it, waves of whistling sounds, like divine thunder from the nine heavens, seemed as if they were about to pierce the firmament.
Victory. Over these past ten-plus years, the Taiping Sect had campaigned north and south, sweeping across the entire world, and had finally wiped the world's feudal lords clean.
The world had entered a state of great unification once again.
Looking at the person standing on the altar, those below—whether soldiers, officials, or commoners—all had expressions of great excitement.
The benefits brought by the Taiping Sect regime over these years were clearly seen by the common people at the bottom; they might not have read many books, but they were not fools.
Who treated them well and who treated them poorly could be seen at a glance.
Take the commoners of the Divine Capital Luoyang: before the Taiping Sect arrived, the life of the commoners at the bottom was one of eating one meal while hungry for the next, or even never being full at all.
But ever since the Taiping Sect took over, life had become different.
Not to mention having support in old age, but whenever a poor family lacked grain, the Commune would provide it; the Commune President, though a low-level clerk whom the commoners had once hated, was different when replaced by a Taiping Sect Commune President.
That person was the savior of these poor people.
They knew that all of this was brought by the Taiping Sect, so they genuinely recognized the Taiping Sect and felt heartfelt reverence for that Great Virtuous Teacher.
If it were possible to be canonized as a god, Zhang Jiao would surely be enough to be canonized now, and it would definitely be of the top-tier Divine Dao.
Of course, Zhang Jiao would naturally not be canonized; his current cultivation had already reached the True Immortal Peak, and True Immortal was not Zhang Jiao's peak.
Now that the Taiping Sect had just unified the world, the Qi of Luck of Jiuzhou would surge even more, and as the leader of the Taiping Sect, Zhang Jiao's Qi of Luck was even more terrifying.
Although the Taiping Sect currently had no emperor, the Human Emperor was not a feudal monarch; during the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, what was actually practiced was more of a succession system like that of an Elder.
Zhang Jiao was the Great Elder of the Taiping Sect regime, the head of both military and political affairs, though in reality, he rarely interfered in internal affairs or even military matters.
Yet within the Taiping Sect regime, Zhang Jiao was unquestionable; no one could replace him.
Therefore, Zhang Jiao's Qi of Luck was the most concentrated; breaking through to Golden Immortal in the future would be very simple, and as the national power of the Taiping Sect regime grew stronger, Zhang Jiao's cultivation would also grow stronger.
The current Taiping Sect had already surpassed the Liu Han Dynasty at its peak.
Emperor Wu of Liu Han back then could be considered the peak of Liu Han, and that Emperor Wu had almost reached Golden Immortal, but unfortunately, he was countered and plotted against by the noble families.
But the current Taiping Sect was different; the power of the noble families had already been weakened to the extreme.
The power of the Taiping Sect's center could be said to have reached its peak, even stronger than the Great Qin of the past.
Of course, this was only in terms of centralization and control over the regions; in terms of comprehensive strength, the Taiping Sect still lagged far behind the Great Qin.
Because of the sealing of Jiuzhou, too few powerhouses were born; the strongest in the Taiping Sect, Zhang Jiao, was only at the True Immortal Peak, and there were no more than ten in the True Immortal Realm.
But as the Taiping Sect unified the world and the laws of the Technology Path spilled over, the sealing effect on Jiuzhou would only get worse.
The rewards bestowed by the Heavenly Dao were a Great Trend of the Heavenly Dao, which the Heavenly Court could not block.
The Heavenly Dao wanted to promote the Technology Path; this was the Great Trend of the Heavenly Dao. With the Great Trend on the side of the Human Race, the Heavenly Court was powerless to resist.
This time, the Human Race had won; after the Fire Cloud Cave set the plan, they had pushed it from the shadows.
In just over ten years, the Taiping Sect had swept across the world.
They had completed the great unification. Before many immortals and gods could react, the world was unified, and the killing tribulation of Humanity had ended.
So now, those immortals and gods had no other choice, because the killing tribulation of Humanity had ended and the world was at peace; it was very difficult for them to push it further.
After all, Humanity was not something they could scheme against; they lacked the strength.
As for the Great Trend of the Heavenly Dao, it was not on their side now; the Heavenly Dao clearly valued the promotion of the Technology-side Law more.
After all, the stronger the Technology-side Law, the greater the supplement to the origin of the Heavenly Dao, which was equivalent to increasing the strength of the Heavenly Dao.
The stronger the laws, the more the Heavenly Dao flourished; the Dao Ancestor Merging with the Dao back then was actually also to supplement the laws of the Heavenly Dao.
Therefore, the current Great Trend of the Heavenly Dao was on the side of the Human Race, and in terms of Humanity, it was even more centered on the Human Race; as such, it was already too late for the many immortals and gods to react.
Standing above the Divine Capital Luoyang, Su Fan looked at the huge golden seal that had already condensed and muttered, "It is finally done!"
The Taiping Sect had unified the world, the regime was completely stable, and Humanity was stable; the next step was the time for full-scale development.
The Science Path could also develop rapidly.
The great flourishing of the Human Race would also arrive; regardless, the Great Trend of the Heavenly Dao could not be changed, not even by a Saint.
After all, now facing another world, the Primordial Heavenly Dao did not want to lose, so it had to frantically strengthen its own origin.
Once the Technology-side Law developed, the power of the Heavenly Dao would also increase by a few points.
So now, anyone who went against the Human Race and stopped the Human Race from developing the Science Path was equivalent to holding back the Heavenly Dao.
It would be a mercy if the Heavenly Dao did not send down Thunder Punishment.
And as the person behind the scenes pushing it, the benefits Su Fan could obtain were imaginable; he felt the majestic Qi of Luck rolling in from the void—not the Qi of Luck of Humanity, but the Qi of Luck of Heaven and Earth.
It was the Heavenly Dao's reward for him.
Now, it would be reasonable to call him a Qi of Fortune.
Perhaps the next time he went out, he might even stumble upon an Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Previously, wasn't his Sea-Calming Pearl an incidental benefit because his Qi of Luck was abundant?
He had also refined the Sea-Calming Pearl; it was his first Innate Spiritual Treasure, and the Sea-Calming Pearl was indeed suitable for him because he specialized in the Five Elements Great Dao, supplemented by the Space Law.
And the Sea-Calming Pearl itself was a water-element spiritual treasure with the ability of space; it could be said to be an Innate Spiritual Treasure very suitable for him.
However, it was not so easy to get other Five Elements Innate Spiritual Treasures.
Innate Spiritual Treasures were inherently very rare; the Innate Spiritual Treasures of the Honghuang were already claimed, so if he wanted an Innate Spiritual Treasure, he would either have to change worlds or wait for the two worlds to merge, giving birth to new innate origins, and then wait for the birth of Innate Spiritual Treasures.
But fortunately, he was currently only at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Early Stage, so he was not in such a hurry for Innate Spiritual Treasures.
