879 Sacrifice to Heaven and Earth

“I, Li Xiang, the Lord of Dawn, have risen in the chaotic world since the integration of the worlds. I have fought with fierce beasts and foreign races, demons beasts, and evil spirits. I also gathered the people and protected the Human race. Now, the country is protecting more than 500 million civilians, and countless Human civilians are protected in the regions under our control. Today, in order to develop the country better and gather more strength, I… want to establish the country!”

Li Xiang said loudly with a calm expression.

Every word was filled with unwavering faith. Every word was sonorous and powerful.

He had done all of this before, and it was his achievement. There was no falsehood, so he naturally said it in a righteous manner. Moreover, this was a statement made in front of the will of heaven and earth. There could not be any falsehood. If one were to lie, one would be punished by the will of heaven and earth.

Every word spoken on the worship stage had to be true and come from the heart. Heaven and earth would naturally know if there was any falsehood.

Lying in front of the will of heaven and earth was definitely an id*otic act.

As soon as these words fell into the mind of every civilian of Dawn, not only the Kingdom of Dawn but also all the Human race civilians in the regions under the influence of the Kingdom of Dawn heard it clearly.

This sentence was also acknowledged by everyone.

Many people thought of the hardships when the Kingdom of Dawn was still a small territory and not a kingdom. They looked up and saw fierce beasts and powerful enemies everywhere. Life and death were on the line. They will never forget that feeling of hesitation.

The people’s morale naturally gathered around Li Xiang, and the pressure on him was greatly reduced. It even disappeared completely, and he steadily stepped on the first step.

One step, two steps, three steps…

In the blink of an eye, he had crossed nine steps. He did not encounter any pressure on these nine steps. The people’s morale easily blocked the power of the world outside.

The pressure on the altar suddenly increased again when he stepped onto the tenth step. Compared to before, he had directly risen to a higher level. The huge pressure made him unable to move easily.

“What qualifications do you have to establish a Luck Dynasty?”

On the altar, the heavenly voice sounded again, issuing the same question.

“I built a city. The system in the city is complete, and all kinds of daily facilities are complete. Human civilization was revived in my hands. Casting currency, circulating Star Coins in the world, setting a fixed price list, determining the prices of goods in the world, and benefiting the people. Am I qualified?”

Li Xiang looked up at the void and said loudly. He didn’t give the world any time to acknowledge him as he lifted his foot and stepped up.

More and more people’s morale gathered around him. With this step, the pressure on his body suddenly disappeared and he took another big step forward.

The promotion of the City of Dawn to the royal city was an achievement and showed his ability. He was qualified to ascend the worship stage. This was something that even the heavens and earth had to acknowledge. They had no choice but to acknowledge it.

After stepping on another nine steps, he reached the nineteenth step and the pressure came again.

This staircase was not a common staircase. It was a true path of questioning one’s heart. It was a test of one’s heart.

This was the question of heaven and earth!

There were eighty-one steps. To reach the top of the worship stage, one had to go through Nine Heavenly Questions. If they failed once, they would lose the right to establish a dynasty, and the will of heaven and earth would disappear. Even if they established a dynasty, they would only be able to establish a common dynasty. They would not be able to condense the luck of the country, and would only have the luck of a royal city.

The third question followed.

“What is ‘People’?”

The heavenly voice sounded again.

“The people are water. Water can carry a boat but it can also capsize it! The people are the foundation, a country exists if there are people and a country would perish if there are no people!” Li Xiang answered without hesitation.

Huaxia had experienced many changes in dynasties, and this saying had been proven time and time again. The people were water, and the countless civilians in the world could help you obtain the world. Similarly, if you did not care about the well-being of the civilians and bullied them, no matter how gentle the water was, it would become completely furious and turn into a Flood Beast that destroyed all obstacles in its way.

How could Li Xiang not know these living examples?

As a ruler, one must first know what kind of civilians they led and how powerful they were!

People’s morale soared once again. With the will of the people, it became easier for him to move forward. It was even simpler.

Then, the heavenly Dao asked another question, “What is a ‘Monarch’? What is a ‘Country’? How to govern a country, how to bear the power of a country, and how to govern a region; the wish of the people.”

And then the heavenly Dao ended the question with, “Can you bear the weight of the country?!”

What was a country? A country for the well-being of the people, the hope and future of Human civilians, and even the development of the civilization of mankind. Such a heavy burden was not something that ordinary people could bear.

“Yes!”

Li Xiang muttered to himself for a few seconds before answering firmly.

Nine Heavenly Questions. Li Xiang stepped through the eighty-one steps and arrived at the platform at the top of the worship stage.

The moment he stepped on it, Li Xiang felt that the distance between him and the world was closer than ever.

He had the illusion that he could see the will of heaven and earth as soon as he raised his head. This feeling was extremely clear.

The will of heaven and earth was watching him from above.

“When offering sacrifices to heaven and earth, there should be a cauldron. This one should be the Heaven Worship Cauldron.”

He stood on the worship stage and looked at the empty platform. He frowned slightly and waved his hand, causing a bronze cauldron to appear on the platform.

He had forgotten where he had gotten this cauldron. His storage space was too big, and there were too many things inside. There were no less than a million treasures in total. It would be a little difficult for him to remember all of them.

This cauldron became the Heaven Worship Cauldron on the worship stage.

Cauldrons were originally used for worshipping purposes.

The cauldron wasn’t empty, it was filled with soil.

It wasn’t any precious soil, but a portion of soil from every city in the Kingdom of Dawn was mixed together and placed into the cauldron. This wasn’t ordinary soil. When placed into the cauldron, it was the Country Soil. It meant that this was the place that he was about to rule.

“Heaven and earth above, the Lord of Dawn Li Xiang worships to heaven and earth again. It had been more than three years since the first year of the Myriad Worlds Calendar and the Myriad Worlds had merged. We have driven out fierce beasts and foreign races, demon beasts, and evil spirits. We built homes and restored people’s lives, determined the currency, set rules, established systems, and ruled over billions of people. Today, the City of Dawn had been promoted to a royal city, so we make a special offering to the heavens and earth. We are going to start a Luck Dynasty. May the heavens and earth allow it!”

Li Xiang said respectfully. Then, with a wave of his hand, a few items appeared in front of him.

It was a national seal forged from primal chaos jade, but there were no words engraved on it. There was also a prestigious and dignified palace, a golden ranking list, and a rolled-up scroll.

These were the forged supreme treasures of luck, the Country Guarding Divine Weapon.

These four divine weapons appeared on the Heaven Worshipping Cauldron and were held up by a five-colored cloud.
