Xiao Mo leaned against the throne.
He looked at Xian Qing'er, who stood in the great hall, and asked, "After killing that intelligent beast, has the strength realm of any immortals and demons improved?"
Xian Qing'er nodded respectfully and replied, "Reporting to master, four immortals and demons have now reached the Saint rank!"
"Very good!" Xiao Mo nodded, expressing his satisfaction.
This way, he had even more Saint-level powerhouses under his command, totaling over thirty now.
Xiao Mo remembered the few who had been promoted today; they were all immortals and demons with high talent growth limits.
With the help of the [Troop Evolution Blueprint], the four of them had advanced to the Heavenly Immortal and Demon Commander level.
Now, having successfully been promoted to the Saint rank in the process of killing the Saint-level intelligent beast family leader, he was very pleased.
As for the two, Xian Yi and Xian Er, who had reincarnated on Xiao Mo's first day in this world, they were still at the mid-grade Monarch rank.
It was worth noting that these two were already mid-grade Monarch rank when they killed the Dragon Clan leader.
Even after participating in this operation, they still hadn't seen any improvement in their strength.
This made him somewhat disappointed.
Logically speaking, although these two were only Yellow-grade immortals and demons, they had undergone evolution before, and their initial ranks had reached the Profound Immortal and Demon Warrior level.
Their growth limit could reach at least peak Monarch rank, but they were still slow to be promoted.
Could it be that because their potential was somewhat limited from the start, it was now fully manifesting?
If so, perhaps another evolution was needed for these two.
With this thought, Xiao Mo said to Xian'er, who was beside him, "Keep an eye on Xian Yi and Xian Er and that batch of Yellow-grade Immortal and Demon Warrior troops. Find a way to improve their strength as quickly as possible!"
The first batch of immortals and demons to follow Xiao Mo had made significant contributions to his Immortal and Demon territory on his development path.
Now that he could obtain a large number of troop evolution blueprints at any time, Xiao Mo naturally would not forget them.
"As you command! Lord Sacred Master!" Xian'er respectfully nodded and replied.
After Xian Qing'er left the grand hall of the palace.
Xiao Mo looked at the divine spark fragment in his hand again and asked, "Xian'er, with your divine power, can you refine this divine spark fragment?"
Xian'er nodded and said, "Reporting to Sacred Master, refining this divine spark fragment is a simple matter for me. In at most one night, I can refine it into pure divine power origin for you to absorb!"
Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Xiao Mo's face, "Then I'll leave it to you!"
Saying this, he handed the divine spark fragment to Xian'er.
Xian'er respectfully accepted it and then said again, "Within this divine spark fragment lie several divine-level fate laws, which are very useful for Xian Miaomiao!"
Hearing this, Xiao Mo understood her meaning.
He then nodded slightly and said, "Do as you say and bestow the fate laws within to Xian Miaomiao!"
"As you command!"
Xian'er smiled gently and said, "With these few divine-level fate laws, Xian Miaomiao has a great chance of directly condensing a divine spark and ascending to divinity!"
Xiao Mo's eyes suddenly lit up; he hadn't expected such an unexpected gain.
However, upon closer thought, it seemed normal.
After all, Xian Miaomiao's strength was at peak Saint rank as soon as she reincarnated.
If she absorbed several divine-level fate laws in a row, it wouldn't be impossible for her to ascend to divinity.
Because she herself mastered the power of destiny, which was of the same origin as the power of fate laws within the divine spark fragment.
For others, fate laws were useless. If they forcefully absorbed them, it could even cause a conflict of laws and lead to self-destruction.
But for Xian Miaomiao, who mastered the power of destiny, these fate laws were the perfect cultivation treasures, easily absorbed and refined into her own fate laws.
With the acquisition of these divine-level fate laws, Xian Miaomiao's strength would also greatly increase, and condensing a divine spark to ascend to divinity would not be impossible.
And once Xian Miaomiao successfully ascended, the Immortal and Demon Kingdom would possess the power of three deities.
One Xian'er, one Xian Miaomiao, and plus Mu Ya at the critical moment.
Even, Xiao Mo himself should be added.
Thinking of these, Xiao Mo smiled broadly.
These were true deities!
Upon reaching the divine level, he wouldn't even have to worry about lifespan.
As long as he wasn't killed, he would be eternally indestructible.
Deities were all eternally immortal, which was the goal that billions of lords dreamed of achieving, and it was also one of the goals of the Ten Thousand Races Hegemony Competition.
Xiao Mo calculated that in less than a month, he would be stepping into the divine rank.
With such speed, let alone being just a lord of a territorial force, even the gods of faith surely did not have such speed back then.
This would surely make everyone incredibly disbelieving.
After all, in the span of a month, from a weak mortal body to a deity.
Such a situation, let alone others, even Xiao Mo himself found it hard to believe.
But this was the reality!
Thinking of this, Xiao Mo felt quite grateful to Jin Xuan.
After all, if she hadn't sent the news of the divine spark fragment as a gift, he wouldn't have obtained it.
Without the divine spark fragment, if he wanted to rely on killing enemies to improve his strength and use the divine spark rewarded by the system, it would have taken some more time.
Without dwelling on these matters, Xiao Mo opened the [Ten Thousand Races Trading Platform].
Most of the items listed yesterday, except for food, had been sold out.
Including the various blueprints and high-level equipment put up for auction, they had all been sold.
Xiao Mo had also obtained a large amount of resources.
Including wood, stone, and iron essence, and more importantly, immortal demon stones and soul crystals.
To other lords, the resources he had obtained this time were a vast quantity, enough to upgrade their territories and troop buildings to a very high level.
But to Xiao Mo, the resources obtained were only a part of his current reserves.
He was too wealthy now!
The total amount of various resources in his warehouse exceeded ten billion units.
The total amount of immortal demon stones and soul crystals combined was also an astronomical figure.
This was something any lord could hardly imagine.
Therefore, facing the proceeds from sales and auctions, Xiao Mo felt no fluctuations in his heart.
At the same time, Xiao Mo noticed that more and more lords and lone travelers were selling [Teleportation Array Building Blueprints].
The trading platform was filled with transaction information for [Teleportation Array Building Blueprints].
From this, it could be seen that teleportation arrays had now become widespread.
This allowed lords to form alliances and create small groups that shared honor and disgrace.
Wars between territories would correspondingly decrease, as even top lords could not guarantee that low-level lords would not have the support of a large number of allies behind them.
If they encountered some cunning low-level lords, even top lords might stumble.
However, although the frequency of territorial wars had decreased, their scale would correspondingly expand!
Various forms and scales of territorial alliance wars must have already appeared in many places.
Xiao Mo had no doubt about this.
Territorial forces would never be at peace, as every lord had their own ulterior motives.
Attacking indigenous forces, conquering other lords to plunder resources, and accelerating the development of their own territories and alliances.
This was the common goal of all lords.
Therefore, territorial wars would not stop.
On the contrary, as time went by and the lords' strength increased, the scale and influence of territorial wars would become larger and larger.
Once developed to the later stages, after the emergence of powerful territorial forces and alliances, lords would not be content to develop in their own regions, but would change their war targets to the indigenous empires in the central region of the Primordial Continent.
This was the development trend of territorial forces!
Even without the guidance of the game officials, the lords would naturally embark on the path of the Ten Thousand Races Hegemony Competition.
It would not be an exaggeration to call it a destined fate.
Even Xiao Mo could not escape such a fate.
Like other lords, he would never be content with staying in a corner.
Because he knew that if he didn't become stronger, he would eventually be eliminated by this cruel world.
Even if he became a deity.
If divine wars broke out, the lowest-tier deities would only be cannon fodder on the battlefield...
