Chapter 848

Following Guo Jia's words, Xiang Yu and the others nodded.

"The Military Advisor is right. In our Great Han Celestial Court, for a cultivation level like yours at the peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, the minimum is an official rank of the Fourth Rank."

"If you want to continue to rise in the future, you will need to earn merit to do so."

"As for this general and General Xiang, as Legion Commanders, our official rank is currently only at the Second Rank."

"Once an official rank reaches the Third Rank, the amount of merit required to rise another level is immense."

Hearing Guo Jia's words, Yue Fei also explained to Chong Lou with a solemn face.

"So that is how it is. This seat understands!"

After listening to the explanations from Guo Jia and Yue Fei, Chong Lou felt somewhat relieved.

"Regarding your official position, we must wait until we return to the Great Han Main Realm to be personally conferred by the Heavenly Emperor."

"For now, let us arrange the affairs of this realm before we begin our return to the Main Realm!"

After finishing his explanation to Chong Lou, Guo Jia said to everyone with a solemn expression.

"The Military Advisor is right. Then why don't I, this general, lead the War God Legion and stay behind?"

"General Yue, you and the Military Advisor should return to the Main Realm first!"

Hearing Guo Jia's words, Xiang Yu pondered for a moment and said to Guo Jia and Yue Fei.

Now that the strong in the Xian Jian World had all been slain, the highest cultivation level among those remaining was only at the early stage of the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

With the fifty-thousand-strong War God Legion and Xiang Yu sitting in command, it was sufficient to guard the Xian Jian World well.

"This... General Xiang, why don't I, this general, stay behind instead?"

Hearing Xiang Yu's words, Yue Fei looked at him and said to Xiang Yu.

"General Yue, it would be better to listen to General Xiang. Your Taowu Legion has one million men, after all."

"Guarding the Xian Jian World does not require so many people; General Xiang's fifty-thousand-strong War God Legion is enough!"

Guo Jia, who was on the side, saw this scene and immediately said to Yue Fei with a smile.

"Hahaha, the Military Advisor is right. Stop arguing with this general!"

Upon hearing Guo Jia's words, Xiang Yu could not help but laugh loudly as he spoke.

"Fine then. If we continue, it will make this general seem a bit pretentious. Since that is the case, this general will not argue with General Xiang."

Hearing the words of Guo Jia and Xiang Yu, Yue Fei also said with a smile.

Soon, after everyone had arranged the matters, only Xiang Yu's War God Legion was left behind to guard the Xian Jian World.

As for Guo Jia, Xiang Yu, Ning Daoqi, Pang Ban, Chong Lou, and some people from Shu Mountain, they all returned to the Main Realm together.

In the Great Han Main Realm, after sensing the aura of the Space Gate, Liu Bian immediately arranged for the Minister of War, Cao Cao, to go and welcome the triumphant army.

After settling the army, Guo Jia, Yue Fei, Ning Daoqi, and Pang Ban entered the palace to meet Liu Bian.

"This humble minister (this general) pays respects to the Heavenly Emperor!"

Upon seeing Liu Bian, the four of them immediately bowed respectfully to him.

"Four beloved subjects, you have all worked hard to successfully conquer the Xian Jian World this time!"

"Rise, and all of you, sit down and speak."

Seeing the four of them arrive, a smile appeared on Liu Bian's face.

"Many thanks, Heavenly Emperor!"

After the four of them rose and sat down, Guo Jia hurriedly took out the World Origin of the Xian Jian World.

"Heavenly Emperor, this minister and the others have not failed the mission. This is the World Origin of the Xian Jian World!"

After speaking, Guo Jia respectfully handed the sealed World Origin to Liu Bian.

"Good! You have all worked hard, beloved subjects!"

"Fengxiao, tell me about the situation of the attack on the Xian Jian World this time!"

Taking the World Origin from Guo Jia's hand, Liu Bian looked at Guo Jia and said to him with a smile.

"This minister obeys the decree!"

Immediately, Guo Jia gave Liu Bian a detailed account of what had happened in the Xian Jian World.

"Good. You all deserve great credit for successfully conquering the Xian Jian World this time."

"I will first go to upgrade the Main Realm. After the Main Realm upgrade is complete, I will then reward you for your merits!"

After listening to Guo Jia's words, Liu Bian looked at the four of them and said solemnly.

"This minister thanks the Heavenly Emperor!"

Hearing Liu Bian's words, the four of them immediately bowed to thank him.

Subsequently, after bidding farewell to Liu Bian, the four of them left the Imperial Palace.

"Now, it is also time to begin upgrading the Main Realm to a Middle-Grade Immortal-Martial World!"

Seeing the four of them leave, Liu Bian took out the sealed World Consciousness, moved his body, and arrived in the Heavenly Dao Space.

"System, erase the consciousness of the Xian Jian World's World Origin."

After arriving in the Heavenly Dao Space, Liu Bian said to the system in his heart.

"Ding! Erasing the consciousness of the Xian Jian World's origin requires 10 million National Fortune points. Does the host confirm the erasure?"

"Confirm."

Hearing the system's inquiry, Liu Bian responded without hesitation.

"Ding! 10 million National Fortune points have been deducted. The host's current remaining National Fortune is 2.99 billion. Now erasing the consciousness of the Xian Jian World's World Origin for the host."

A quarter of an hour later, the World Origin in Liu Bian's hand had its intelligence erased, becoming a mass of the purest World Origin Force.

"Hum..."

Upon seeing the World Origin in Liu Bian's hand, the Main Realm's World Consciousness became restless.

Seeing this, Liu Bian did not hesitate and directly handed the World Origin in his hand to the Main Realm's consciousness to devour.

"Let me, the Emperor, help you refine it!"

Seeing the Main Realm's consciousness devour the World Origin, Liu Bian also circulated his cultivation technique to help it refine it.

As the Main Realm's consciousness continuously refined the World Origin, the Main Realm also began to upgrade.

The current Great Han Main Realm had long since reached the extreme of a Lower-Grade Immortal-Martial World.

It was only a hair's breadth away from upgrading to a Middle-Grade Immortal-Martial World.

Now, with the World Origin of the Xian Jian World—a Middle-Grade Immortal-Martial World—as a catalyst,

in an instant, the Main Realm began its upgrade.

"Boom... Boom..."

As the Main Realm began its upgrade, the surface area of the Main Realm began to increase once again.

"This is... the Main Realm has begun to upgrade!"

Seeing this scene, the civil and military officials of the Great Han, who had already experienced this many times, immediately knew what was happening.

Subsequently, notices to reassure the commoners were quickly spread throughout the entire Great Han Main Realm.

"I did not expect the Main Realm to start upgrading again. After this upgrade, it will be a Middle-Grade Immortal-Martial World!"

Upon seeing the content of the notices, the Great Han commoners, knowing that the commotion was caused by the Main Realm's upgrade, were all excited.

"That is correct. After this upgrade, our Great Han Main Realm will be a Middle-Grade Immortal-Martial World!"

"A Middle-Grade Immortal-Martial World! Our cultivation speed in the future will be able to increase by another notch!"

"Who is to say otherwise? The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in our Great Han is already very rich; if the Main Realm upgrades, I dare not even imagine it!"

The commoners were all happily discussing what benefits they would be able to receive after the Main Realm's upgrade.
