Creation of the Universe

The Prime Minister cleared his throat and looked at Shen Zhan and Shen Yunli with pity. He liked these two children very much, but it could only be said that they were not destined to be together.

He was about to speak when suddenly!

Two beams of starlight fell down with a bang and sank into the eyebrows of Shen Zhan and Shen Yunli. Everyone present was stunned, including King Jinning himself.

"Hiss..." A warm feeling spread from his eyebrows to his whole body. When Shen Zhan opened his eyes, a small mark of the Tao was flashing between his eyebrows.

"First-order Dao"

"Ninth-order Dao Rule!!"

"what!!!"

King Jinning instantly stood up from his seat. His ninth daughter had actually attained the ninth level of Dao Principle! Compared to that, his eighth son, who had only attained the first level of Dao Principle, was nothing!

Ninth-order Dao Law, what does that even mean? Three hundred years after the founding of Jinning State, only three people, including Shen Yunli today, have been granted the Ninth-order Dao Law by Heaven. The other two, without exception, have all become Martial Saints!

Shen Zhan on the side breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he had the Dao rules, even if it was only a first-level Dao rule, with the dignity of a Martial God in his previous life, practicing should not be a problem.

What shocked him was that Shen Yunli beside him was actually endowed with the ninth-level Dao rules, and obtained it after eating the Dao fruit.

In other words, his sister Shen Yunli might very well be the first person in history to possess dual Dao principles! Her future achievements would definitely not be limited to the body of a Martial God. Shen Zhan simply couldn't imagine what kind of realm she would reach!

Inside the Temple of Heaven, everyone was stunned. Ninth-order Dao Rule! Ninth-order Dao Rule!

"Quick! Bring Yunli up here! Quick!" King Jinning pointed at Shen Yunli and shouted. She must be protected at this time. She is the capital for the future strength of the Jinning Kingdom!

Swish, swish, swish! Several black shadows quickly passed through the crowd. Shen Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly. These people were all powerful warriors at the level of Wuzong.

He patted his younger sister Shen Yunli's hand and gave her a reassuring look. After Shen Yunli recovered from her shock and nodded to him, several dark shadows instantly brought her to King Jinning.

"Good daughter, good daughter! The Imperial Household Department! Summon them!"

"Appoint the Ninth Prince's daughter, Shen Yunli, as the Princess of Wuwei!"

"Long live our king! Thousand years of life for the princess!"

"Long live our king! Thousand years of life for the princess!

After everyone cheered, King Jinning seemed to have thought of something. He turned around to look at Shen Zhan who had already stood up, cleared his throat, and continued.

"Appoint the Eighth Prince, Shen Zhan, as the General Guarding the Nation!"

His voice was loud, but it did not carry the excitement and joy as before. Naturally, there was no shouting from the crowd. The atmosphere in the entire Temple of Heaven was weird.

But King Jinning didn't care. If it weren't for the fact that Shen Zhan and Shen Yunli were brothers from the same mother, he would have been too lazy to care about his useless son.

His daughter was endowed with the ninth-order Dao principle, so King Jinning was too lazy to give the subsequent speech. He simply took Shen Yunli, who had just been named Princess Wuwei, away under the escort of a powerful person, leaving the finishing work to the prime minister.

On the other hand, Shen Zhan, who was standing aside, had a strange smile on his face.

After the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, the royal palace will reward the princes and princesses who have been recognized by the Tao with a spiritual object called the Foundation Establishment Pill, which is used to stabilize the fusion of the Tao and the human body and has the effect of cleansing the marrow and flushing the meridians.

The number of foundation-building pills is often linked to the level of Dao principles obtained. A prince like Shen Zhan, who only obtained the first-level Dao principles, only received two foundation-building pills from the prime minister, one of which was secretly given to him by the prime minister, which made Shen Zhan very grateful!

After all the ceremonies, the princes and princesses will go together to pay their respects to King Jinning, listen to the instructions of King Jinning and Queen Jinning, and summarize what they have gained in the past year.

On the way back to the palace from the Temple of Heaven, Shen Zhan felt a flicker of doubt. Although he had obtained the Dao, why was it only a first-order Dao? Could it be that the will of heaven was unfathomable?

He shook his head helplessly, feeling a little speechless.

After returning to the palace, Prince Jinning and Shen Yunli were not there. Only the queen was sitting on the main seat. She wore a golden phoenix crown on her head, a black phoenix robe with twelve layers of soul feathers, and her face was painted with thick palace makeup. She looked only about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, dignified and elegant, and very stunning!

After everyone had gathered, the queen slowly spoke, "Today, Yunli has been granted the ninth-level Dao Rule by the grace of Heaven. The king has taken her to the Taimiao to meet the ancestors. I will preside over today's admonitions."

"My son, I pay my respects to my mother!"

As soon as the queen waved her sleeves, a total of nineteen princes and princesses, from the eldest eighteen-year-old to the youngest three-year-old child, all knelt according to etiquette and kowtowed to their nominal mother, Queen Jinning.

"Stand up, sit down. Your father is not here today, so this hall is not so solemn!"

"Thank you, Queen Mother, for the seat!"

Seeing everyone seated, Queen Jinning had an indifferent expression and said with a clear "hmm".

"During today's grand ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heavens, I heard from the Prime Minister that three princes and one princess have obtained the Dao principle, is that correct?"

"Your Majesty, that's right." A girl in palace attire beside her answered respectfully.

"Yes, you have not brought shame to the Wang family!" The queen nodded with satisfaction, her eyes swept over everyone, and finally stopped on Shen Zhan.

"I heard that you, Old Eight, have also activated the Dao rules?" There was a hint of indifference in her tone.

Shen Zhan's eyes flashed. What was he doing? He asked the previous question and then asked himself again. Was this unnecessary?!

He stepped out of the line, turned around and bowed to the queen.

"In reply to your Majesty, that's right!" Shen Zhan said without any emotion. It was already difficult for him to call a girl who was just a little girl to him "Mother".

"Hmm... I haven't disappointed the king. Although it's only the first level of Dao, my achievements are probably limited, but at least I have the Dao. Not bad, from now on, I will move to Dening Palace."

What does this mean? Is this a way to please me? Shen Zhan thought to himself, a disdainful smile inadvertently appearing on the corner of his mouth.

"My child, please obey..."

"Mother! There's something wrong with my child!"

Before Shen Zhan could finish his words, a man jumped out from the queue. It was the third prince, Shen Jingming, the biological son of Queen Jinning, who had previously mocked Shen Zhan and Shen Yunli.

"Shut up! Did I allow you to interrupt me?! Go back!" Queen Jinning saw that her second son was so stupid, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes, and she slammed the table and scolded him.

"Mother... Mother?" Shen Jingming didn't expect that his mother, who usually doted on him, would be so angry today. He paused and immediately shrank back, trembling like a baby bird.

Shen Zhan on the side lowered his head with a sneer on his lips. This third prince was indeed a fool. It was a pity that he had such a good appearance but couldn't even understand the most basic social etiquette.

Shen Zhan and Shen Yunli are siblings, and they have an extremely good relationship. Today, Shen Yunli obtained the ninth-level Dao rules, and it will be no problem for her to become a Martial Saint in the future. So, even if Shen Zhan, her sibling, is not good enough, he is still her brother. It is better to build a good relationship with him now to avoid Shen Yunli causing trouble in the future.

"Your third brother is used to playing tricks, don't mind it. Since we're brothers, we should stay close to each other in the future. Of course, this is also for all of you! Do you understand?!"

"My child will obey my mother's orders!"

Shen Zhan bowed and retreated, even with a fake tremor in his tone, which made the queen nod in satisfaction.

After that, the queen began her New Year's admonition. Shen Zhan stood in the crowd, his eyes watching his nose and his nose watching his heart, his mind sinking into his dantian.

Today he finally obtained the Dao rules and sensed the existence of spiritual power. The name of a martial art from his previous life, the Creation of the Universe, also appeared in his mind.

In his previous life, Shen Zhan relied on this fragment of the lower-grade ordinary martial arts to cultivate all the way to the realm of Martial God without any obstacles!
