A total of twenty-four great provinces and the incomparably powerful individual power of the cultivators complicated the situation of the entire The Land of the Black Dragon. To use Jiang Beiran’s own summary, it was like the combination of the conflicts of the Seven Warring States and the wars like the modern nuclear warfare.
A few countries with powerful experts and large forces joined forces and moved unhindered, going back and forth in the central regions with the most abundant resources.
Some small countries that were stuck in the middle of these powerful countries were struggling to survive. However, it led to a very interesting phenomenon. Everyone wanted to attack this small country, so this small country was actually safe, but it was very fragile at the same time. This was because a few powerful countries would use this small country as a “chessboard” and make all sorts of arrangements on it. Then, there were some countries that were more remote. For example, the Sheng Kingdom. There were not many rare cultivation resources in the Sheng Kingdom. They were quietly doing their things in their own territory and then recognize a powerful country or a powerful clan as their big brother. This way, they could also maintain the peace in their countries.
However, this trend only applied to most of the small countries. In fact, there were many special situations. For example, a mystic guru or even a mystic saint could not bear to see a small country being destroyed by war. So, they would send out messages to tell everyone on the continent that, “I will protect this country.”
Moreover, there was a small country that suddenly had a peerless genius. With an astonishing speed, he became one of the strong experts. If this peerless genius’s family was still in this small country, then this country could be considered to have a gold medal of protection. Other countries would not go and cause trouble to them.
All of these were the effects of individual strength being too powerful. An overpower individual strength was also the main reason why the prestige of the Imperial Court had plummeted.

There was naturally an emperor in the Imperial Court, but in most countries, the emperor was just a puppet. The duty of Imperial Court was to govern the country. In fact, to put it bluntly, it was to not let the common people starve to death. Otherwise, how could the sects or demonic sects recruit disciples.
However, they still had to show respect to the puppet emperor. Usually, the emperor’s backer was the strongest force in the country. If other sects wanted to bully the Imperial Court, they could still tolerate it once or twice. If they kept provoking Imperial Court repeatedly, that would be slapping the face of the big shot behind the emperor. There would be terrible consequences if they did so.
The Imperial Court also had an army, and the army still had lethality to cultivators below the level of mystic spirit.
After all, before they were promoted to mystic spirit, once their mystic energy was exhausted, the cultivators would also die when fighting the army.
However, the soldiers did not dare to provoke the cultivators. Their existence was only to maintain the order of the towns and villages.
However, not every emperor was so willing to be the puppet of a sect or a demonic cult. Some emperors lay in seclusion for several years and cultivated themselves into experts. Then, they would eradicate the righteous sects and demonic cults, thus completing the centralized system.
Perhaps the experts of that country thought that the powerful Imperial Court was the foundation of a country, and they needed to gather their power together to manage the country. Then, the Imperial Court of that country would also be very powerful. They could even form an army of cultivators.
Then, there was a certain emperor who was unwilling to be a puppet. He did not have the ability to cultivate, and the cultivators in the country did not agree with the importance of the Imperial Court. What could he do at this time?

Stir up trouble!
He would let the righteous sects and demonic cults fight each other out. When both sides suffered heavy losses and the entire country was in need of rebuilding order, his opportunity would come. “It’s very obvious that our old emperor, no, the emperor’s young son wants to do this.” Jiang Beiran recalled that the emperor of Sheng Kingdom was only twenty-three years old this year. He was in high spirits, and he wanted to do something big.
However, things like power would make people commit crimes. The poor and broken Fengzhou could attract so many people to fight for it, not to mention the wealthy provinces in the center of the continent
“This d*mn place is really too dangerous” Sighing in his heart, Jiang Beiran looked at Li Fucheng and asked, “Can you tell me more about those Imperial Court officials?”
“As for the specifics… I’m not very sure. Third Uncle only told me that it might not be peaceful for a period of time.”
“Then why did you come out?”
“I…” Li Fucheng took a sip of sesame paste to cover up his embarrassment. “I just felt that there’s more evil in the outside world, so I had more opportunities to establish myself in other places.”
Jiang Beiran had only one sentence to describe how a naïve weakling who had not made any preparations and was still alive, “He definitely has the plot armor of a protagonist!” In order to ease the sudden awkwardness, Jiang Beiran found a topic to talk about. “Hey, the Eighteen Soldiers Formation in your courtyard is pretty good. Who helped you set it up?” The formation of the Eighteen Soldiers Formation was a kind of defensive formation. There was a soldier from the underworld standing at each of the 18 positions, which was also known as the Yin soldiers. As long as someone stepped into this formation, the soldier would immediately report to the person who set it up.
However, when Jiang Beiran entered, he used a camouflage to block the sight of the Yin soldiers, so he was able to suddenly appear in front of the Li Fucheng.
“Sorry for making a fool of myself, Brother Wang. This formation… was set up by me.”
“You set it up?” Jiang Beiran asked in surprise.
Although he had given him a copy of the Book of “Eight Palaces and Four Rivers”, this Eighteen Soldiers Formation was not recorded in it. Moreover, even if it did, Li Fucheng was just a newbie who had only started cultivating formations for a few months. He would not be able to set up one. However, he actually set it up quite neatly.
