Chapter 67: No Need to Cultivate Soldier Envoy, Give Me Time, I Will Surpass Soldier Envoy

Lin Yuan was not surprised that weapons and armaments possessed spirituality.

In the Dragon-Tiger World, the True Martial Sword possessed spirituality.

However, the Divine Weapons of this world started to pen up humans and devour them regularly.

This was no longer just spirituality, but rather intelligence.

The thirty-six Divine Weapons were equivalent to thirty-six quasi-Fourth-Rank or even Fourth-Rank Experts.

If they joined forces, slaughtering all members of the Human Race would be an easy task.

However, these thirty-six Divine Weapons did not do so.

Instead, they planned for sustainable development.

They even found their respective spokespersons.

Which were the royal families of the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Central Plains.

They fostered spokespersons from among the livestock.

And then let the spokespersons manage the numerous livestock.

Every once in a while, they selected suitable livestock to feed on.

This had already formed a complete and sophisticated process.

From this point alone, Lin Yuan had already determined that the Divine Weapons not only possessed intelligence,

and their intelligence was not low either.

"However, I am not in any danger for the time being."

Lin Yuan thought silently in his heart.

Even as livestock food,

there were still Ranks.

Like Lin Yuan of the Great Yan royal family, the spokespersons chosen by the 'Divine Weapon'

were definitely of the highest status.

Even if he still could not escape the fate of being devoured,

he would be the last one to be devoured.

"Strength, as long as one's strength is strong enough, even a Divine Weapon can be shattered with a single punch."

Lin Yuan let out a soft breath and walked out of the wooden building.

The Cultivate systems of the living beings in this world were influenced by the 'Divine Weapon'.

No matter how stunning and brilliant they were, their destination was at most a Martial Saint.

Faced with the high-and-mighty 'Divine Weapon', they were merely a delicious piece of food.

But Lin Yuan was different.

His Cultivate Foundation did not come from this world and was completely unaffected by the 'Divine Weapon'.

Returning to the Eastern Palace,

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged.

"Today, I can recover to my full strength."

Lin Yuan lowered his gaze.

Having traveled to this world for six years and eating various tonics all day long, it was naturally impossible that Lin Yuan had done nothing.

In secret, he had long since recovered most of his strength.

In fact, given Lin Yuan's Cultivate speed,

he could have recovered to his full strength in five years at most.

However, the Cultivate system of this world gave Lin Yuan a lot of inspiration.

Although flesh refining, tendon refining, skin refining, bone refining, viscera refining, marrow refining, and the final Blood Refinement were somewhat deformed,

in terms of forging the Physical Body, they were indeed nothing short of perfect.

They could temper every single part of the body inside and out.

It was precisely because he wanted to perfectly integrate this Cultivate system into the martial arts Cultivate system that Lin Yuan spent over a year more.

"It is almost time."

Lin Yuan closed his eyes slightly.

Earth-shaking changes began to take place within his body.

After a short half-day,

Lin Yuan smoothly recovered to Third-Rank strength.

At this moment, Lin Yuan's combat power even surpassed his Peak period in the Main World.

After all, the current Lin Yuan had cultivated the method of Physical Body transformation comprehended from Lou Lanhe to full progress.

In addition, he had perfectly absorbed the physical tempering methods of this world.

In terms of the Physical Body, he naturally surpassed his Main World self by a lot.

"Take it slow."

Lin Yuan's gaze was calm.

According to his speculation, the State-Protecting Divine Weapons of the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Central Plains,

each possessed at least quasi-Fourth-Rank, or even true Fourth-Rank strength.

Compared to these Divine Weapons, the current Lin Yuan certainly could not match them.

On this day,

after finishing his Cultivate,

Lin Yuan saw his Seventh Sister waiting for him.

Lin Yuan's Seventh Sister. To be precise, she was Lin Yuan's half-sister from the same father.

She was the Seventh Princess of the Great Yan Dynasty.

However, the two of them usually got along quite well.

They often met and chatted.

"Xiaoyuan, later I will go to the Ancestral Ground of Divine Weapon with the other sisters."

Seventh Sister's tone suddenly became somewhat worried.

"Ancestral Ground of Divine Weapon?"

Lin Yuan's expression remained unchanged.

The Ancestral Ground of Divine Weapon was where the State-Protecting Divine Weapon of the Great Yan Dynasty slumbered.

As for why Seventh Sister and the other princesses were going to the Ancestral Ground of Divine Weapon, it should be related to cultivating a 'Soldier Envoy'.

To become a Soldier Envoy, one must first gain the recognition of the Divine Weapon.

This inevitably required getting close to the Divine Weapon.

According to past conventions,

the preliminary candidates for the Soldier Envoy of the Great Yan Dynasty would definitely be preferentially selected from among the royal clan members.

After all, the fact that Soldier Envoys had short lives was no secret.

If the current Emperor had a choice, he definitely would not send his own children.

But now the Great Yan Dynasty was facing a generational gap in Soldier Envoys.

All royal clan members had taken their turn, yet none were chosen by the Divine Weapon.

Under this circumstance, Emperor Liu Shi had no choice but to send his own children up to try.

Of course, it was limited only to daughters; a crown prince like Lin Yuan was absolutely impossible to become a Soldier Envoy.

Because Soldier Envoys did not live long and needed to stay by the Divine Weapon's side for a long time,

they were destined to have nothing to do with the throne.

"There should be no problem."

Lin Yuan comforted her with a few words.

"I hope so."

Seventh Sister's eye sockets were somewhat red.

Although she did not know what kind of end awaited her upon becoming a Soldier Envoy,

the Great Yan Dynasty selected a Soldier Envoy every thirty to forty years.

One could imagine that the previous Soldier Envoy most likely died.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to select a new Soldier Envoy.

Half a day later,

Seventh Sister came to find Lin Yuan again in tears.

"Brother, I, I have been chosen."

Seventh Sister's voice was hoarse, faintly carrying fear.

Not long after,

the imperial guards walked in.

They respectfully saluted Lin Yuan,

and led Seventh Sister out.

Seventh Sister did not resist either.

Once chosen by the Divine Weapon, her destiny was already sealed.

Even the Emperor could not change it.

The reason she appeared here was entirely because she wanted to see Lin Yuan one last time.

After all, once she became a Soldier Envoy, unless she urged the Divine Weapon, she basically had no chance to leave the Ancestral Ground of Divine Weapon.

"The Divine Weapon… does it like people with powerful Souls?"

Lin Yuan watched Seventh Sister leave while thinking rapidly in his heart.

Compared to other royals, Seventh Sister's spiritual Soul was innately powerful.

The specific manifestation was that she had good memory, and would feel refreshed after sleeping for a little while every day.

As for why it liked her… perhaps because she was relatively 'delicious'?

Perhaps to the Divine Weapon, those practitioners with exuberant Qi and blood were just ordinary food.

While people with powerful Souls were a grand feast that it wanted to taste slowly, which was why every Soldier Envoy had a short lifespan.

Lin Yuan's thoughts surged.

At this point, he also guessed why the Divine Weapon did not directly lift the shackles on the Soul and spirit in the Cultivate system.

Once the Physical Body and Soul were cultivated together, there would be a probability of giving birth to existences surpassing Martial Saints, and over time, it might shake the 'ruling' position of the Divine Weapon.

"Yuan'er, being selected by the Divine Weapon is your Seventh Sister's honor, and also a good thing for our Great Yan Dynasty."

Emperor Liu Shi found Lin Yuan and said softly.

Although the crisis of the Great Yan Dynasty's generational gap in Soldier Envoys was resolved,

Emperor Liu Shi's mood was not good.

He naturally knew what becoming a Soldier Envoy meant.

If it were other royal clan members, he would just turn a blind eye.

But when it came to his own daughter…

Even so, Emperor Liu Shi had never regretted it.

Although bound by the alliance, even if the Great Yan Dynasty had no Soldier Envoy for a short time,

it would not cause any adverse effects.

However, a Dynasty with a Soldier Envoy and a Dynasty without a Soldier Envoy

were completely different concepts.

When dealing with other dynasties of the Central Plains, if there was no Soldier Envoy, the Great Yan Dynasty would inevitably fall short a head.

At that time, facing other powerful dynasties, the Great Yan Dynasty would definitely suffer all kinds of losses, and perhaps even sign some humiliating alliances.

A Soldier Envoy could urge the Divine Weapon; although it was basically useless, it was also a huge deterrent.

It could go unused,

but it could not be lacking.

Now that the Seventh Princess had become a Soldier Envoy, it was equivalent to making up for the biggest shortcoming of the Great Yan Dynasty.

In the next thirty to forty years, basically nothing bad would happen.

As for the personal emotions of the Seventh Princess…

As a princess of the Dynasty, the Seventh Princess had been clothed in fine silk and eating delicacies since birth, standing above ten thousand people.

Having enjoyed so much, what was wrong with making a sacrifice now that the Great Yan Dynasty was facing a crisis?

"Yuan'er, I know you and Xiao Qi have a good relationship."

"But if a 'Soldier Envoy' can be cultivated, no matter how great the sacrifice, it is worth it."

Emperor Liu Shi comforted him.

He came here specifically this time because he was worried that Lin Yuan would let his imagination run wild.

After all, he also knew the relationship between Lin Yuan and the Seventh Princess.

"Imperial Father, actually…"

Lin Yuan was silent for a moment.

"Actually what?"

Emperor Liu Shi's spirit shook slightly.

He actually wanted to know what Lin Yuan thought of this matter.

This could also be considered a kind of test from Emperor Liu Shi towards Lin Yuan.

If Lin Yuan was still reluctant to part with the Seventh Princess,

then Emperor Liu Shi would be very disappointed.

Ordinary people could cherish sibling affection,

but an emperor could not.

If an emperor wavered because of personal emotions,

it would be a disaster for the entire country.

As the future Emperor of Great Yan and the sovereign father of hundreds of millions of living beings,

Lin Yuan's vision should stand from the perspective of the entire Great Yan Dynasty.

If it could exchange for the stable situation of the Great Yan Dynasty for the next few decades, not to mention one princess,

even ten or a hundred, Liu Shi would not hesitate at all.

"Actually, there is no need to Cultivate a Soldier Envoy."

Lin Yuan looked towards Emperor Liu Shi.

"Give me time, and I will surpass the Soldier Envoy."
