Chapter 529: Those who submit to me shall prosper, those who resist me shall perish

"Interesting, interesting!"

Watching the *Yin Shang* on the live stream, the Dark Supremes chuckled with great interest.

They knew nothing of such battleship artifacts, and even if they did, they wouldn't take them to heart, for they did not believe an Imperial Weapon could be stronger than them.

Furthermore, they were not alone.

In their eyes, Yin Qi was merely a fat pig, waiting to be slaughtered at any time.

After the battleship demonstration, Yin Qi's "show of force" finally came to an end.

He looked around, his voice impassioned: "My goal is to unify the universe and establish an unprecedented, unified Celestial Dynasty. From this point on, there shall be no war between star domains, nor within them; all races shall coexist in peace."

"Everyone shall receive a proper cultivation education."

Even many mid-to-high-level cultivators and factions were quite moved.

"I will not interfere with how you govern your specific star domain, but you must declare submission to me, pay annual tribute, and station large armies in key star domains to maintain the rule of the star domain."

"A Saint Dynasty, possessing a Quasi-Emperor or an Imperial Weapon, may govern up to ten star domains."

"Everyone, as long as they work hard, can obtain the cultivation resources they desire."

Besides, his goal had always been national fortune and the merit of civilization.

But the only things that truly concerned Yin Qi were the Four Great Imperial Dynasties.

Because in the universe, there was not only the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty, but also the Divine Court and the Undying Empress.

Rumble!

As Yin Qi finished speaking, the entire universe seemed to boil over.

"A Dynasty, possessing a Saint, may govern a star domain."

The other three Imperial Lords smiled bitterly and could only nod one after another.

Of course, they could also flee to the edge of the universe or hide on remote, desolate planets.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, the Four Great Imperial Lords shouted excitedly: "Is that true?"

The Lord of the Future not only possessed terrifying data processing capabilities but was also absolutely rational, making it perfect for handling complex government affairs, and no one could deceive it.

When these words fell, the entire venue fell silent.

"Since you have submitted to me, I will not let you suffer losses."

The advantage of doing this was obvious: it was easy.

Although they lacked law enforcement and taxation powers, they retained administrative and military authority, which was already higher than their original bottom line.

With a Quasi-Emperor leading an expedition with an Imperial Weapon, who could withstand it?

After the founding ceremony, the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty—no, it should be called the Immortal Court—began to get busy.

The Four Great Imperial Dynasties laughed happily: "Many thanks, Emperor. We, the Four Great Imperial Dynasties, are willing to merge into the Immortal Court."

The implication was that the Great Xia Imperial Dynasty had decided to submit.

After the ceremony came the grand banquet.

Submit, or resist?

Finally, the Great Xia Imperial Lord said in a deep voice: "Everyone, let us go and pay a personal visit to Yin Qi to see what his attitude really is, and what status and rights we can secure."

Yin Qi said solemnly: "It is true!"

Normally, it is easy to conquer but difficult to govern, especially on a cosmic scale; even if Yin Qi handled government affairs personally, he likely wouldn't be able to manage it all.

"Except for the above, all others shall be demoted to Vassal States."

Yin Qi naturally could not accept this model; it was too crude and unfavorable for obtaining national fortune and the merit of civilization.

The other factions were also moved.

"But you only have administrative and military power; you have no law enforcement or taxation power."

Yin Qi knew that conquering the Four Great Imperial Dynasties was easy, but it would leave behind many future troubles, which was not conducive to stability.

"Of course, the armies of all countries must obey the central command."

In the entire Big Dipper star domain, there were tens of thousands of countries.

"Haha, great, great! If the universe is unified, we will have no more wars, and we might even follow the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty to ascend together and achieve immortality."

Under the Immortal Court, in descending order, were the Saint Dynasty, Celestial Dynasty, Imperial Dynasty, Dynasty, and Vassal State.

To give is to receive; only by giving can one gain.

"Emperor, send someone quickly, I will help lead the way."

The last sentence was exceptionally domineering and cold, causing everyone present to shiver involuntarily.

"An Imperial Dynasty, possessing a Saint King, may govern at most one star domain."

"I hope that all races, all star domains, and all civilizations will voluntarily join the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty."

It wasn't just about the volume of government affairs; just let the Lord of the Future handle it.

Everyone looked at Yin Qi one after another; they also wanted to know what they would gain if they submitted to the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty.

Yin Qi looked around at the crowd and then said solemnly: "Under the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty, the existence of nations is permitted. According to my plan, the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty will eventually be promoted to an Immortal Court."

"Regarding tax revenue, the Saint Dynasty may retain 50%, the Celestial Dynasty 40%, the Imperial Dynasty 30%, the Dynasty 20%, and the Vassal State can only retain 10%."

Following the path of the ancient Heavenly Court meant grasping the big and letting go of the small.

"Strive for the goal of ascending together and become citizens of the Immortal Domain."

"Strongly suggest that our entire race joins the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty!"

As for those Dynasties, they would likely be disbanded on the spot.

In short: those who submit to me shall prosper, those who resist me shall perish.

Yin Qi's speech received the support of countless grassroots commoners and cultivators.

At the scene.

Representatives of various factions came forward to offer toasts one after another.

Because within tens of millions of light-years, all life planets had been equipped with interstellar teleportation arrays, either openly or secretly, the expansion speed of the Immortal Court's army was extremely fast, and everywhere they went, they surrendered upon hearing the news.

The Great Yin Imperial Dynasty was too strong, so strong that they felt powerless.

During the banquet, the Great Xia Imperial Lord bowed and said: "Emperor, may I ask what your attitude is toward our Four Great Imperial Dynasties?"

"And our ultimate goal is not only for everyone to be like a dragon, but also to break into the Immortal Domain, ascend to immortality, and from then on, everyone can live forever."

"What? Yin Qi's goal is actually to ascend together! Great, count me in!"

"For example, your Four Great Imperial Dynasties can join the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty on expeditions; any star domains conquered can be incorporated into your own territory."

But there were too many disadvantages.

Consequently, many people began to secretly conspire.

Especially the high-level members of various races, star domains, and civilizations; they were originally high and mighty, but now they had to take orders from Yin Qi, which they found impossible to accept.

The Four Great Army Groups took the Big Dipper star domain as the center and set out in four directions.

The Four Great Imperial Lords looked at each other, seeing the complexity and struggle in each other's eyes.

In this way, the Four Great Imperial Dynasties would not only be willing but would even strongly support him, because they had reached the standard of a Saint Dynasty and could govern ten star domains in the future—wasn't this much better than their current situation?

"A Celestial Dynasty, possessing a Great Saint or a Quasi-Imperial Weapon, may govern at most five star domains."

But was this possible?

Of course, Yin Qi had many supporters, but also many opponents.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Yin Qi's unification of the universe was unstoppable, and because he possessed interstellar teleportation arrays and a cosmic network, he could effectively govern every star domain.

They had to either join or die.

Yin Qi continued: "Races, sects, clans, and civilizations are the same; they are graded according to the nation, and different grades enjoy different rights and benefits, which I will make public later."

For any government affair, it could instantly deduce the cause and effect.

Thus, Yin Qi brought out his Lord of the Future to handle the government affairs of the Immortal Court.

From then on, the development of the Immortal Court entered the fast lane. ===== CHAPTER 530 =====
