The Lord's Empire

Zhao Fu gave the two pets over to others to take care of while he went to deal with the matters that had accumulated during the festival. The first thing was the Flower Devils.

Great Qin now had a Lord class Flower Devil Seed and many ordinary Flower Devil Seeds. He wondered if they would look like the Flower Devils from the event, but Zhao Fu mainly cared about their strength; everything else was of secondary concern.

Zhao Fu looked at Great Qin’s map – if he wanted to nurture a large number of Flower Devils, they would require a large area just for them, and Zhao Fu soon found a large plains area.

Zhao Fu first used the Flower Domains, which could aid in the growth of Flower Devils and make sure that flowers would never wilt. This covered everything within 100,000 kilometers, and it would turn this place into an ocean of flowers.

The Flower Domain that Zhao Fu used was the white Japanese rose. Zhao Fu placed it on the ground, and it quickly grew countless roots and stabbed into the ground. A white light rippled out, and Zhao Fu could immediately sense a faint domain power covering the surrounding 100,000 kilometers.

Following this, Zhao Fu took out the Lord class Flower Devil Seed, dug a hole, put it in, sprinkled some water from the Fountain of Life on it, and covered it up again.

Zhao Fu also brought some other people to come and help, because it would take far too long for Zhao Fu to plant all of the Flower Devil Seeds himself. Everyone planted the Flower Devil Seeds at certain distances away from each other and sprinkled some water from the Fountain of Life as well.

Following this, Zhao Fu took out a gray ball, which was the World Flower Seed. With the Flower Domain, as well as countless Flower Devils, it would be perfect to plant this World Flower Seed here.

After dealing with the things from the Ten Thousand Flower Festival, Zhao Fu started to look for places with Yin Qi to create Ghost Soldiers. Soon, Zhao Fu found a suitable place in a region called the Nether Province, where there was a valley with a large amount of natural Yin Qi.

Zhao Fu brought some people and changed the shape of the terrain, making it flatter. They then set up a Yin Qi Formation that gathered all of this region’s Yin Qi, which would be used for converting Ghost Soldiers.

The Yin Qi Formation was extremely effective, and Zhao Fu was quite glad that he had exchanged for it. With the Yin Qi Formation set up, the surrounding Yin Qi quickly gathered and formed a dense fog that covered the surrounding tens of thousands of kilometers.

Following this, some spirits and monsters were attracted over, greedily trying to devour the dense Yin Qi. However, after Zhao Fu set up a stone stele, a formless King’s aura rippled out, scaring the countless spirits and monsters into immediately running away.

After setting down the Ghost King Gravestone, no ordinary spirit or monster would dare to come close. Zhao Fu also placed the 12 meter tall Ghost Army Flag there, causing Yin Qi to gather even quicker, and an aura of killing was also gathered, causing the gloomy fog to have a hint of bloodthirstiness.

Zhao Fu also set up the Ghost Marquis Gravestones nearby, increasing the power of the domain.

Next, Zhao Fu thought about how to use the Ghost Commander Seals, Ghost Marquis Seals, and Ghost King Seal. The Ghost Soldiers would only have an innate battle intent, and even though they used to be Great Qin’s soldiers, they would not immediately follow Great Qin’s orders.

As such, they needed to use the Ghost Seals to control the Ghost Soldiers. Zhao Fu planned to use the Ghost Seals to create a formation that would allow Great Qin to control the Ghost Soldiers as soon as they were created in order to avoid anything unexpected.

Zhao Fu set up a Ghost Seal Formation with the Gravestones at the center. Within the gray magic formation, he set up the Ghost Commander Seals on the outside, the Ghost Marquis Seals on the inside, and the Ghost King Seal at the very center.

After setting these things up, Zhao Fu ordered people to bring out hundreds of coffins, all of which were made out of Yin Wood. These coffins helped with converting Ghost Soldiers and would preserve as much of their strength as possible.

Within the coffins, there were armored corpses holding weapons; they were all soldiers who had died in battle while fighting for Great Qin.

The reason that they were still wearing equipment was that when they became Ghost Soldiers, the equipment they had would absorb a large amount of Yin Qi, so Zhao Fu would not have to prepare any equipment or weapons for them.

They only had this many soldier corpses right now; Great Qin’s soldiers who had died in the past had all been given burials. Zhao Fu did not want to disturb their rest, and he naturally would not dig their bodies up; after all, they were soldiers of Great Qin.

If it was anyone else, in order to obtain these benefits, Zhao Fu would not even hesitate to dig up their corpses. However, Zhao Fu had his own principles, and he would never lay his hands on his own soldiers.

He even considered making enemy soldiers into Ghost Soldiers, which would be able to greatly boost the Ghost Soldiers’ numbers, but it was possible that things could go wrong, as they had been killed by Great Qin and could still harbor resentment towards Great Qin.

At the start, they could be controlled by the Ghost Seals, but once they became more powerful and their hatred exploded, they could rebel.

This was something that Zhao Fu was quite worried about – if many Ghost Soldiers rebelled and ferociously attacked, Great Qin would suffer great losses.

Suddenly, Zhao Fu thought of something and smiled. The corpses that Great Qin had were not only Great Qin’s soldiers but also corpses from the battle between the Dark Demon race and Spirit Light race. Great Qin had also obtained a large number of corpses from the battles between the human world and the Fish Scale world.

Great Qin had not killed these soldiers, so they would not feel any direct resentment towards Great Qin. Even though they would not be as loyal as Great Qin’s soldiers, they could still be controlled by the Ghost Seals.

When he thought of this, Zhao Fu grinned and ordered people to prepare even more coffins. Great Qin could command 25 million Ghost Soldiers, and Great Qin had 700 million corpses stored up. Taking out 25 million corpses to become Ghost Soldiers would be no problem at all.

After placing all of the coffins within the formation, they could only wait, so Zhao Fu turned his gaze to the things from the Divine Fish Festival.

There were three main things that he needed to take care of from the Divine Fish Festival: one was the Deep Sea Tree Fish, one was the Mermaids, and the last one was choosing 36 Mages.

Deep Sea Tree Fish were extremely precious cooking materials, so their living conditions were incredibly strict. Great Qin did not have any seas, but it had some saltwater lakes, where they could raise these Deep Sea Tree Fish. At the same time, they had all sorts of spirit liquids that they poured into the lakes in order to help with the growth of the Deep Sea Tree Fish.

As for the Mermaids, Zhao Fu created another ten or so Mermaid Villages that could spawn ordinary Mermaids. They could give weak blessings, which had to do with their bloodlines.

The two male Mermaids that Zhao Fu had obtained at the start had fairly pure bloodlines, so their blessings were stronger. Zhao Fu wanted to nurture more Mermaids and obtain higher-grade bloodlines that would improve their blessings.
