Chapter 420: Attacking Cities and Seizing Territory

After taking three cities in this way, they finally arrived at the capital of Tan State. From afar, they saw Quan Yin wearing a purple dragon robe standing on the city wall, looking at Qiuqiu with eyes full of hatred.

Qiuqiu asked Chongmingniao Xizhong to bring him to Quanyin, reached out and took out an ordinary long sword, and fought with Quanyin one-on-one, which was a respect for Quanyin.

Seeing this, Bai Yi and the others also followed Qiuqiu's example, sealing their spiritual power and finding the right opponents to fight.

The battle was won without a doubt. Taking into account the time taken, the dry food they brought was used up, and the war in Tan State was completely settled.

The State of Tan completely disappeared in history, leaving only Tancheng, which had seven small cities under its jurisdiction. It established a new system, appointed new officials, and left a team of 100 people to assist in public security management.

Quanyin felt threatened the moment Qiuqiu appeared, and tried to suppress and sabotage him many times, but all ended in failure.

For the last time, he used the most hidden Divine Liquid of Creation that had been passed down along with the Temple of the Servant of God to kill Qiuqiu and the others. Unexpectedly, he failed at the last moment and ended up helping Qiuqiu and the others.

After years of planning and fighting for the throne with the determination to die, he was about to succeed, but what awaited him was the approaching army.

It is a pity that I did not continue the restoration of Quan State. Success and then loss is more tragic than not having succeeded at all. Time is running out!

After more than 30 years of diligent practice, he was still no match for the few moves of the woman who suddenly appeared. In the blink of an eye, half a lifetime of planning was in vain. He insisted on dying under Qiuqiu's sword, which was also a relief for him now.

Qiuqiu wiped the blood-stained sword and said, "Qinqin, your Xiaobai, after the upgrade of your Pure Eyes, can you clearly see the merits and sins of mortals?"

Zhu Qin nodded: "After the demon pill was formed, Xiaobai's inherited memory contained new methods of using the Pure Dharma Eye. Now that its spiritual awareness has improved, it can easily see the merits and sins of ordinary mortals. However, it cannot see those with great luck and high-level cultivators."

"Call it out and examine these nobles. Those guilty of serious crimes will be put to death without mercy, while those with minor sins will be exiled. New officials will be selected from those with merit and ability."

"Yes, I will arrange it immediately. Before tomorrow's execution and investiture ceremony, I will come up with a precise list of punishments and officials."

The army of 10,000 people ran out of food and fodder, but Qiuqiu never thought of requisitioning rations from the poor people.

Moreover, these soldiers have already embarked on cultivation, and most of them are at the fifth or sixth level of acquired cultivation, and are still in the stage of opening up tendons and expanding meridians.

Soldiers' appetites increase greatly during fighting, and they need to eat some food containing spiritual energy to ensure their basic body needs.

The military had strict rules and regulations. When attacking cities and seizing territories, they would not take a single grain of rice or piece of cloth from ordinary people.

In order to encourage the soldiers and enhance the image of Xu's army as a divine army in the eyes of the people, Qiuqiu took out a large amount of reserve grain from the space and distributed it to the soldiers in public.

At the vegetable market, Qiuqiu tied seventy-two sinners to wooden stakes.

They included men, women, young and old, and they were all wearing the identities of divine soldiers and shouting slogans of divine punishment. After a little investigation, the evidence of the criminals' crimes became clear, and they soon made the news known to everyone.

Even if there are a few people who are thorough and well hidden, Qiuqiu will directly search their souls and expose their crimes to the public in the form of pictures.

Qiuqiu's method of looking back to the past shocked those who had ulterior motives, making her future path to rule extremely smooth!

Every time a person's crime was announced, he would chop off his head, and he killed seventy-two people in succession to establish his authority.

He also publicly accused more than 500 people of sin and sentenced them to exile in extremely cold, hot, and dry places.

The place of exile was also selected by Qiuqiu in advance when verifying the information of various countries. They are all well-known and secluded places.

They are mainly located in sparsely populated areas such as poor mountainous areas, deep deserts, bitterly cold lands, and miasma hills.

The exiled prisoners were transported by a golden-winged Roc with the blood of Kunpeng. In just two days, more than 500 people were sent to five exile places.

When Qiuqiu sentenced criminals, he only looked at their sins and did not bring disaster to their families. Every charge was clearly stated, and with the halo of a god around him, no one stood up to oppose him from beginning to end.

Qiuqiu's remarks at the Servant God Temple Competition have spread among the nobles. Regardless of their wealth or age, they all believe in the theory of cause and effect.

He appointed new officials, left behind a hundred-man guard, and led the army towards Tianyuan Kingdom.

The leader of the guard team is Sima Hui, the son-in-law of the Xu family. He grew up in the Xu family, has four spiritual roots, and is over sixty years old. After re-cultivation, he has reached the sixth level of Qi Refining. Everyone has to call him Grandpa. He has been the provincial party secretary for thirteen years and is also a frontier official. It is more than enough for him to stay and govern a small country.

Qiuqiu promised that during his three-year term, he would exchange a thirty-year-old Qingyuan fruit for his uncle every year as a reward.

If you take too much mid- to low-grade elixirs, elixir poison will accumulate in your body. Over time, elixir poison will form in your body, blocking your tendons and veins, making it difficult to make any progress in your cultivation.

However, for people like my grandmother Zhang Yingzi and my uncle Sima Hui, who have four spiritual roots, even if they have heavenly-level skills and sufficient resources for cultivation, their cultivation is very slow.

Moreover, they had already missed the optimal age for cultivation. After taking the Silver Burning Pill in their sixties, their aptitude had improved somewhat, but even taking the Marrow Cleansing Pill and the Meridian Opening Pill could not change the fact that their body functions could not reach the optimal state for cultivation.

The advancement of cultivation is slow. The older you get, the slower the improvement. You will soon reach a bottleneck in cultivation. Without a great opportunity, your cultivation will not advance at all!

In this case, taking pills to break through is the best way to advance.

The life span of a Qi training period is no more than a hundred years. A Qi training person in his sixties or seventies is not far from the five signs of decline. However, if he takes elixirs to quickly enter the foundation-building period and his life span reaches two hundred years, he will no longer be affected by the lifespan crisis.

However, this kind of foundation-building, which sacrifices the path to future advancement, is not advisable for those with excellent qualifications. However, it is the best training plan for someone like Sima Hui. However, the path to future advancement is almost cut off!

Now Qiuqiu has promised to provide a thirty-year-old Qingyuan fruit every year, and Sima Hui no longer has any worries.

Qingyuan Fruit is cultivated by large families or sects specifically for the second generation of cultivators, or for elders or peak masters who have made great contributions but have been unable to advance. It is used to clear the poison in the body.

Qingyuan Fruit can eliminate the hidden dangers brought by the upgrading of elixirs!

For the sake of three thirty-year-old Qingyuan fruits, Sima Hui will also devote all his energy to building a new system and implementing the best land reform plan.

Sima Hui felt very satisfied that his political ambitions could be realized once again.

Especially after knowing that merit can improve cultivation, he devoted all his energy to governing Tancheng.

Qiuqiu also gave him a very important task, requiring this uncle to train at least 30 managers who can govern a city. These people must be found from the officials and nobles in this world who are being recruited by the Temple of the Gods.
