```"These opportunists must take a stand, either submit or oppose, there will be no more neutrality."
Li Fengwen's eyes emanated a murderous intent.
"The remnants of the Coalition of Nations must be dealt with swiftly, and those alien races from the Sea of Realms must be completely eradicated."
Liu Shengnan touched her left wrist with her right hand, her eyes boiling with killing intent.
Her hatred for the remnants of the Coalition of Nations was deeply ingrained.
In the first great battle with them, she was outmaneuvered because of her carelessness and rashness.
Six Legendary Lords from the Sea of Realms ambushed her, leaving her seriously injured, nearly severing her left wrist.
Therefore, this feud was significant.
From childhood to adulthood, Liu Shengnan had never suffered such a great loss.
Even when Zi Liyuan managed to defeat them several times, it was because they hadn't given their all.
But the previous ambush truly made her feel a whisper of death.
If not for the life-saving artifact that automatically activated, she might have directly fallen back then.
"The notifications have been sent out, and final warnings and information have also been given to those indecisive Grand Lords."
The warnings naturally came from the Four Ancient Empires on the second and third levels of the Sea of Realms.
If they didn't take a stand immediately, the consequence would be seriously offending the royal families of the Four Ancient Empires.
In the future, if they wished to ascend to the second level of the Sea of Realms, they would surely be suppressed.
The information was of Tongzhi's death and the detailed intelligence on the heavy losses and severe blow to the main army of the old demon hag.
Among the rulers of the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty, the old demon hag ranked third, now severely weakened, having lost two major territories and being besieged by the eight lords.
It could be said that she was already at death's door, ready to fall at any moment.
And Tongzhi, as the fourth figure, had also held a not weak army.
Now dead, executed by the direct royal line of the Four Ancient Empires, it undeniably struck a major blow to the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty's already scarce prestige.
Once this news spread, the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty faced an immediate onslaught.
The already shaky dynasty began to falter instantaneously.
Some, long harboring rebellious thoughts yet hesitating to act, would not miss such a rare opportunity?
Ying Xueji and others didn't even need to communicate, as the rebels raised their flags one after another.
The neutral parties also realized that if they didn't take a stance, they would only end up being cleared out first.
It was like a fight between the number one and number two, ending with the number three getting dragged to death.
The neutral parties had initially hoped to play both sides, reaping benefits from both.
But now, they received no benefits and faced total ruin with even a slight misstep.
Thus, most chose to stand on the side of the direct royal line of the Four Ancient Empires, joining the grand rebellion.
As for those who chose to side with the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty, they had no other choice.
Their interests were deeply intertwined, and they could only follow the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty down a path of no return.
In other words, they were entirely bound to the impending collapse of the decayed wreck that was the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty.
In a short time, the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty was filled with sprouting rebellions.
One rebellious force after another emerged.
Cries of battle, curses, and wailing echoed throughout the dynasty.
Even within the territories controlled by Kang Mazi and Yongzheng, rebellious forces appeared.
However, as soon as these witless creatures showed a hint of rebellion, they were immediately suppressed and eliminated by Kang Mazi and Yongzheng's army.
Still, faced with widespread rebellion, Kang Mazi and Yongzheng were at their wit's end.
They knew the dynasty had decayed beyond repair and tried to change the current circumstances bit by bit.
But trends being what they were, with interests entangled everywhere, unless they flipped the table and broke the current dynasty to establish a new order.
Otherwise, the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty was destined for ruin.
Unfortunately, Kang Mazi and Yongzheng didn't have enough force or influence to break the old system and establish new rules.
Especially in the past hundred years, Blue Star Humans entering the first layer of the Sea of Realms were no longer gullible fools easily swayed.
The new Great Xia Empire had even popularized education and enlightened the masses, which was utterly exasperating!
Without ignorance among the masses, how could a feudal dynasty still have subjects obediently comply?
It was essentially severing the foundation of the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty!
But alas, knowing didn't change anything.
The Wild Boar Skin Dynasty on Blue Star had perished a hundred years ago.
Now, the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty on the first layer of the Sea of Realms was also on the verge of collapse, with disintegration imminent.
With smoke signals rising everywhere, rebels surged, many Grand Lords declared independence, no longer vassals of the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty.
As for paying taxes to the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty, they yelled a curse!
Previously they feared the army's pressure, but now.
Let them try pressuring with the army.
So many declared independence, with countless lords rebelling, and countless grassroots revolting.
With the remnant forces of the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty unable to suppress the situation, they could only protect their current little plot of land.
In the [Land of the Dead], a large population migration brought a massive resource extraction within the territory.
In a short time, the abundant harvest of resources allowed those lords who allied with Zi Liyuan to rapidly upgrade their Lord's Mansions.
As the Lord's Mansion upgraded, their levels also skyrocketed.
Especially by using Contribution Value to exchange for a Sixth Tier Cultivation Technique from the [Death Castle].
Thus, they all advanced to the fifth-tier epic level.
Having occupied two large territories, there was a huge demand for hands.
But there weren't many available from the [Land of the Dead].
The initial massive resources had been consumed by Zi Liyuan himself, explaining why he ascended to the sixth-tier so quickly.
The later big chunk was used for Mo Yi and Shen Yurou.
And now, with the expanded territory and increased resource development, the lords who sought his allegiance advanced to the fifth-tier epic level.
This greatly alleviated the problem of lacking high-end talent.
Thus, each of them was assigned to previously occupied territories to serve as administrators.
Their demands weren't too many for the moment, but resource extraction was crucial.
Fortunately, there were various collection robots provided by Shen Yurou and White Jade Skeletons from Zi Liyuan as laborers.
The progress of extracting various resources was at least restored to half of what it was before the attacks.
It couldn't be helped; within the two territories, the cities had been visited by Zi Liyuan and his allies.
Pretty much all the subjects and alien races in the cities were captured and relocated to the [Land of the Dead], with the noble clans mostly exterminated.
Only families of good repute were left alive, but these people were extremely limited in number.
For these surviving clans, Zi Liyuan and his allies dared not place heavy trust.
The Wild Boar Skin Dynasty's decay into ruin wasn't unrelated to these local noble clans.
Even if they had a good reputation among the people, a family of such size was bound to have some bad apples.
Eradicating these people inevitably left some grudges, and there would be resentment.
Hence, these clans could be used to some extent but never trusted heavily.
Currently, Zi Liyuan and his allies' main concern was the lacking manpower.
The [Land of the Dead] was already a large area, with an underground dark world included. Zi Liyuan and his crew were totally incapable of developing it completely.
Now having conquered two full territories from the old demon hag, one containing a highly rare mineral deposit.
Thus, his manpower became even less manageable.
So, Zi Liyuan and his allies once again turned their attention to the taverns provided by the Sea of Realms.
The city taverns provided by the Sea of Realms could draw various people from the real world.
These recruits had lost their homes, or their planets had been destroyed.
Therefore, these recruits were trustworthy in use.
With Zi Liyuan never short on [Heart of the Lord], after recruiting, he could completely entice them with lordship positions to make them serve faithfully.
