39 Chapter 39

Tiny World was Shen Yue's home base and was a safe haven to fall back to if there were ever any complications with the Sage-Emperor and his Deity minions. He had faith that if Nie Lie could destroy the protective barrier around the World, then he could at least tweak it to create an entryway for him to pass through. The other option of waiting five years was not going to work for him.

But first, he had to unify Tiny World and become its ultimate ruler. According to Ming Fei, the Lord of Nether, there where two other powerful realms that could cause problems. The Abyss Realm and the Lava Realm that was mentioned apparently had experts that could threaten Zhu Long.

The Abyss Realm was different from the small Abyss Prison Realm that was now ruled by the Nemesis Family. Shen Yue first thought that it was one of the seventy-two realms of Tiny World and the mysterious old man was its Spiritual God. But after scouring Zhu Long's mind, it turns out that it was just created by an expert, possibly by Emperor Kong Ming.

He still had not been bothered by the crazy old man running around inside his territory, but now that he had the power to fight him, he was no longer worried about him. If the old man stuck his head out and caused any problems, Shen Yue didn't mind chopping it off!

Although Zhu Long knew of the other subsidiary realms of Tiny World, the location to the majority of them was still unknown to him. Shen Yue would need to capture the Nether Lord before he could think about subduing them. Even if he couldn't find them, he was not too worried as his cities would be protected by legend rank guards with Heavenly Fate experts as City Lords.

If the Spiritual Gods left their realms to cause trouble, they would be quickly overwhelmed, especially with Zhu Long overseeing security in the Empire's territory. This was the other main factor in Shen Yue's decision to keep the demon beast alive. Since demon beasts did not build cities, he planned to have them form teams of legend rank beasts to scout out new regions or patrol his lands.

One place that Shen Yue was keen to visit was the human race's Dreamcloud Realm. He would need to pick up Yu Yan's interspatial ring that she hid those many thousands of years ago. It contained Dreamcloud Rocks, the key to activating the teleportation array to travel to the Dreamcloud World.

Shen Yue had already gleaned the location of the teleportation array from Yu Yan, and the memories she had of that world made it a juicy target for conquest. Dreamcloud World was a rather large realm that is very wealthy and fertile, with flowers blooming all season long. It is only slightly smaller than the main world and is one of the last hold outs of the human tribe.

Unfortunately, the ring was several tens of thousands of miles away from Glory City, he would just have Yu Yan retrieve it once she finished training her Law in the desert.

Shen Yue was not in a hurry to invade subsidiary realms as they were full of unknown factors and held many demigod experts. First, he would conquer the six main continents that made up the Tiny World, then he would turn his gaze towards any subsidiary realm that did not bend their knee. He did not plan to leave any hidden dangers to strike at his home base when he left for higher realms.

Barring any anomalies like hidden masters, the mightiest expert they could summon was a Spiritual God. If by some ridiculous chance there actually was a supreme expert hiding in one of the realms, then they would have revealed themselves long ago. The Tiny World was a treasure trove of hidden artifacts, and no person living in this martial universe would give them over to demon beasts to chew on.

Of course, this did not include the Nether Realm. Shen Yue would definitely be subduing it as the portal to the Draconic Ruins was situated in the Death Realm, only accessible through the Nine-Layered Deathlands. The Nether Lord had long ago killed the Death Spiritual God and claimed his realm as part of the Nether Realm. To convince everyone that it was part of his domain was a masterstroke!

Shen Yue had always looked down on the Nether Spiritual God Ming Fei. When Nie Li blindly trusted him and performed a Soul Seal, with Ming Fei as the master, Shen Yue wanted to reach into his PC screen and slap Nie Li like the little bitch he is! He allowed the Demon Lord to operate out of his Realm, and the Wugui Family invade Glory City! Ming Fei even bullshitted him saying he would look after Glory City when Nie Lie experienced first hand that he didn't even lift a finger to save it! To say he didn't know would be bullshit, he would have all paths into his realm under surveillance.

No, Shen Yue would definitely be enslaving that little Nether bitch and searching his mind for all its secrets! There was no way that he would ally with the Nether Lord and leave the petty snake to cause trouble. That was why he was silently helping the slapper in her plans to reach the Nether Realm to enlist help! A legitimate reason to banish the two retards and capture the Nether Spiritual God would be delightful.

With Zhu Long's hatred towards humans transformed into worship for Shen Yue, he was ready to carry out some orders. Since Shen Yue would not be around for long, he needed to set in motion plans to dominate the six continents. With that in mind, he gave out a list of objectives for Zhu Long to carry out.

- Mark all Legend Rank Demon Beasts with an officer slave seal.

- New officers enslave Black-Gold ranked beasts to form 100-man squads.

- Share cultivation techniques to all branded demon beasts.

- Humans are to left alone, but civilisations charted on a map.

- Map out everything!

- Worship the God Emperor!

Shen Yue had been thinking on how to call himself when there were people worshipped as actual Gods. Since he would rule over gods and had an empire, God Emperor seemed the logical choice. Plus, Sage-Emperor sounded pretty wussy!

Shen Yue had imparted the few cultivation techniques that Nie Li knew to Zhu Long. He had also given him inscription insights so he could advance his Law quickly. With him gathering a beast army and mapping out the continents, it would make it easy to scavenge ruins and absorb the scattered human tribes.

Since the Sage-Emperor was the God of all demon beasts, there was no way Shen Yue would let this continue in his domain. The Demon God Sect would not be mentioned any more in the Tiny World, only the all-powerful God Emperor that ruled over all! Shen Yue thought that this boosted his ego quite nicely and gave himself a pat on the back. With his narcissism on the rise, he turned to his army to give them their marching orders.

Since there were only minor injuries in the battle against Zhu Long, his men were ready to head out straight away. Leaving ten men to look after Yu Yan while she cultivated back to full strength, they flew into the air, heading towards his new settlements. It was time to see how well the progress in repopulating the world was going.

A day of flying at full speed later and they where overlooking the closest of the four new cities. It was situated in a vast fertile prairie, and the infrastructure was already quite advanced. Before, humans would never dare to build out in the open in fear of being overrun by demon beasts. But now that they had an army of legend rank soldiers, they walked where ever they pleased. Especially now that they were backed by Zhu Long!

Shen Yue had spent a long time designing the layout for his future cities, and they would all be identical. He would rather practical over beauty and created a plan that would hopefully take into account future growth. Each group had been given a thick guidebook and ordered to plan with attention towards expansion.

This group had chosen to build next to a lake fed by a small river. They had then dug out an extensive sewerage system that covered a gridlike pattern and would flush out into the grasslands. It was a square city with roads running straight as an arrow and wide enough to accommodate four wagons at once.

The buildings were marked out in different sectors depending on their functions. Since the city had one side against the river, the other three were open out to the prairie, with three main roads meeting in the town centre. This was the main market area and would be where all future stalls and shops would sell their wares.

Housing was situated upriver so there would be no contaminated water finding its way into homes and making the population sick. Downriver was the commercial district, where trade and manufacturing would take place. Any pollutants would be swept beyond the city limits, great care was taken to try and keep the water source as clean as possible.

Facing the prairie, was the city barracks and official buildings. With the construction still in its early stages, a wall and gates were not even close to being mapped out. Since their combat strength was so high, it would be the last thing built and factor in future expansion.

Shen Yue met with the commander of this twenty-five thousand strong force and was given a tour of the burgeoning city. Happy with what he saw, Shen Yue offered a few bits of advice and left two hundred Heavenly Fate guards to help out in sourcing building materials.

Since they were in a plain with little to no trees, they had set up a logging camp half a days flight away. With interspatial rings, the burden of resource transport was easily overcome.

With everything on course in this encampment, Shen Yue set off towards the other groups. He was not in a hurry and planned to cultivate different Laws as he toured his future cities.
