RANKING OF KINGS: MY LAND IS SSS RANK

Chapter 872 - 872 Ascend to Royal City



872 Ascend to Royal City

Ascend to Royal City

The civilians shouted to the sky with exuberance, their overwhelming desire to establish their own country palpable in the air. The allure of building a country that one belongs to was irresistible.

Not only were the common people filled with excitement, but even Huang Chengyan and Zhou Qing also could not contain their expectations and yearnings. They would be the founding fathers of the new country, and the benefits they could obtain would be immeasurable. They knew that their actions would leave an indelible mark in history, not only within their own land, but also in the entire Myriad World Continent.

The pursuit of fame and fortune was an inherent nature of all living beings, with only a few able to transcend these worldly desires.

“The Lord is absolutely right. The founding of our country is imperative. There is no region around that can rival the Kingdom of Dawn. We have gained great prestige by successfully repelling the Orc Alliance Army. It is now the best time to ascend to the royal city.”

“Our country, our country!”

“Our country, our country!”

Cheers echoed on the Great Wall of Iron Blood and quickly spread throughout the Kingdom of Dawn. Countless civilians were shouting with a burning passion. This was the morale and the will of the people. The fervent will of the masses was unstoppable.

“Great! Today, we shall establish our country! However, before that, there is one thing that must be done, which is for the Kingdom of Dawn to is to ascend to the status of a royal city. Only with the advancement of our city can we carry the luck of our nation’s birth.”

The main city was not qualified to establish a country without reaching the status of a royal city.

Li Xiang aimed to build a true Divine Dynasty. It would not be a realm where he reigned as the lone god, but a place where everyone had the chance to become one.

It required the accumulation of luck to nourish the entire dynasty. Even though it was a low-grade dynasty, it still needed ample luck to strengthen it and earn recognition from Heaven and Earth.

The stronger the foundation, the more advantageous it would be for the future achievement of the Divine Dynasty, with greater potential and ability to make further progress.

Li Xiang looked up at the void and loudly proclaimed, “Heavens above, I, Li Xiang, Lord of Dawn, humbly request the attention of Heaven and Earth! Since its creation, the Kingdom of Dawn has never been negligent in its duties. We have accepted and governed the civilians, defended against fierce beasts, eradicated evil spirits and demon beasts, and blessed the people with peace and prosperity. Our population has exceeded five hundred million, engaging in trade, regenerating civilization, and contending with foreign races and orc invasions. The name of the Kingdom of Dawn commands respect. As of now, the luck of the city has reached its peak and can no longer be contained. I hereby request the permission of Heaven and Earth to promote the Kingdom of Dawn to a royal city, to govern, protect and guard our land!”

On the system panel, the button to advance to the next level had disappeared, and in its place was a link to communicate with the heavens.

Applicants seeking promotion to a royal city must personally appeal to the heavens and present their accomplishments to gain recognition.

What was meant by accomplishments?

In simple terms, it meant being wholeheartedly devoted to the will of Heaven and Earth, dedicated to improving the lives of the people, inheriting the teachings of the wise, and establishing eternal peace for all generations.

Anything that encompassed these four conditions could be considered as commendable merits, including protecting civilians, promoting production, eradicating demons, restoring Heaven and Earth, upholding civilization, and so forth.

However, the heavens were impartial. This criterion was not only limited to the Human race but also applied to all intelligent beings who have contributed to their own race and to Heaven and Earth.

The practice of offering sacrifices through the altar was considered the most basic and least esteemed way of showing merits.

However, not all displays of accomplishments were meant for the heavens, but for evil gods and demons.

Once recognized by the Heavens, Li Xiang’s achievements would elevate the main city to the status of a royal city.

This was remarkable progress.

Boom!

As Li Xiang’s words faded, a divine presence that seemed to embody the will of Heaven and Earth instantly manifested in the void. At that moment, it felt as if an invisible eye was observing the entire Kingdom of Dawn from above, exuding a majestic aura beyond perception or words. Everyone felt their own insignificance under this overwhelming sense of oppression.

The people on the Great Wall of Iron Blood held their breaths in awe, and their bodies froze in stillness.

“Granted!”

An ineffable voice seemed to echo in the void.

Swish!

Immediately after, a divine light turned into a towering pillar of light descending from the sky.

Under the illumination of the pillar of light, the immense luck that had been scattered across the Kingdom of Dawn instantly gathered in the air, transforming into a golden Luck Wyrm.

Wyrm!

A Golden Wyrm.

The wyrm raised its head and let out a resounding roar. Originally at a hundred feet, it shrank to ninety feet, revealing its claws underneath. Four claws, two in front and two in the back, each adorned with dexterous fingers resembling those of a human, rather than being mere extensions from a fleshy pad of a fierce beast.

This was a Five-Clawed Wyrm!

The Golden Wyrm hovered in the void, letting out a thunderous roar, with clear joy and excitement in its eyes.

The divine light that descended from the void had disappeared as if it had never appeared before.

At the same time, the City of Dawn began to tremble.

The city was expanding at an unbelievable speed. The city walls became higher, boosting its defenses. The entire area had doubled in size, with a capacity to accommodate up to twenty million people, truly becoming a megacity.

The original Castellan’s mansion, later renamed the Star Palace by Li Xiang, expanded in a flash of dazzling light, its plaque shimmered with the word “Dawn” in an iridescent glow.

The already huge Star Palace also doubled in size, becoming even more spacious. The terrain had risen, unveiling a long flight of stairs leading to the outer square of the Star Palace.

The majestic palace seemed to have been lifted to the heavens, resting amidst the billowing clouds and glittering stars.

The magnificent World Tree, which had rarely appeared, emerged from its hidden realm.

Seeming to have absorbed a higher level of spiritual energy, the typically slow-growing World Tree doubled in height, becoming more grand and divine. The internal space within the World Tree had also expanded.

Many spiritual plants, herbs, and medicines planted inside it seemed to have been stimulated by nourishing energy, growing rapidly and even mutating.

However, the appearance of the World Tree was fleeting, only perceptible to Li Xiang himself. If the World Tree did not want to be seen, no one would be able to see her.

The interior architecture of the Star Palace also underwent significant changes. The gardens became larger with the addition of many exotic flowers. The halls became taller, exuding a more imposing grandeur, with countless rooms and attics.

Standing in the royal palace, one could vaguely feel the endless power of the stars descending from the void. It was as if this place was the center of the stars, enchanted with celestial beauty.
