Chapter 391 A Year
Starting from the second week after The Great Green Hill Declaration, the advantages of joining the True Beginning Empire began to be manifested for Everyone...
In the continents of The water, The Wind, and The Sacred tree...:
For the first time in history, everyone agreed on one thing: to reject the Rule of someone they don't even know.
Everyone got out to the streets and riots broke out like never before, but it was still limited to their mid-core strength, they couldn't really affect what was going on in the palaces without their own powerhouses to support them
But they didn't find any...
The protests that lasted for about ten days subsided and the people accepted their destiny after they saw that all the high-level Sages were satisfied with the situation, But things didn't stop at that...
A strange phenomenon began to spread in all the streets, something that if someone thought of it before, he would have gotten up and poured cold water on his head, thinking that he is daydreaming.
It started when the imperial army descended on the capital, but not for the purpose of punishing the people who protested or implemented the laws of their new Emperor by force as everyone thought, but rather.. to distribute hundreds of minor heavenly laws techniques, each up to the third stage?!
And not laws pertaining to the Heavenly Path that the people of each continent specialize in, but rather, those minor laws about all aspects of life... For example, in the water continent, people were surprised to receive books bearing minor laws about plants, pressure, winds, flames, and so on!
It was said that the World Emperor called Robin Burton was the one who discovered all these laws and wanted to share them with his subjects.
...After every continental ruler returned to his home, he learned how to use the tablets given to them by their new emperor, and they ordered him to make written copies of them and distribute them to everyone as the Emperor wanted.
Tens of thousands of saints were appointed to make written copies of hundreds of new Minor Heavenly Law Cultivation Techniques and publish them as soon as they finished them, and for free!
There was truly an inexhaustible source of those books with all those sages working none stop, and with the full support of the continental rulers, how could it NOT reach as many people as possible?
People thought it was a way for their rulers to distract them and that this was just a joke or a hoax, but during the few months that followed the distribution of those books, many people said that they really benefited something from them and started using these Minor Heavenly Law Cultivation Techniques to support their main Law, and even a new generation of youngsters appeared who succeeded in building their pillars from Those new laws!
Although choosing to use a minor law over a major law seems illogical, it is simply that not everyone is interested in having the strongest law, for example, there are farmers who want the plants and life paths laws to help them out, and there are blacksmiths who want fire path laws, as such the working class citizens were one of the biggest beneficiaries of those Minor Heavenly Law Cultivation Techniques.
But the biggest beneficiaries, undoubtedly, were the servant families...
Just a short while ago, they could not practice the major laws that the ruling families possessed, they only had extremely old minor laws that barely reached the second stage, but now they have hundreds of laws to choose from and they all reach the third stage... Sagehood Stage!!
And that's not all... Three months after The Great Green Hill Declaration, it was announced that competitions would be organized for youngsters who are still in the foundation stage, and the winner of these competitions and activities has the right to choose among four major laws: flames, plants, water, and wind.
The main laws for the rest of the continents will be handed over to children who have not entered the Knighthood realm yet... This news sparked controversy in all three continents!!
And not just handing over the known Major Laws, but it is said that these new techniques are *perfect* and much better than what they used to know during their history!!!
Then, another piece of news spread about the opening of academies to teach something called making divine weapons and teaching drawing something called talismans
And a few months later the markets were flooded with sound rings, oath tablets, and various divine equipment and talismans!
It didn't take long for the three continents to begin to show the influence of Emperor Robin's orders, in just one year: fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m
Economically: the production of everything has doubled, and the quality of life, in general, has become much better
Militarily: the formation of the army diversified after it was based on one law technique, and each cultivator began to learn other side laws that would help him massively in his battles.
Socially: A new enthusiasm was ignited among everyone, especially among the young generation, to train better and develop their talents to explore all those new doors that were opened for them!
... the Flame Continent
The course of events there was delayed because everyone was busy returning to their homes and rebuilding what was destroyed... but this only took three months.
Thanks to Billy's policy during the invasion, what was not necessary was not destroyed. Any house that was destroyed was a side effect of a huge battle or because one of the soldiers hid in it, but most of the houses and infrastructure remained as they were, so with some effort and simple construction, the continent returned as it was - almost-
And from that point on, Gu took advantage of the opportunity to keep up with the rest and began to copy and distribute law books as well. He asked a few Rune masters and divine weapon smiths to make a few academies, and even forced everyone, especially the servant families, to study these techniques as quickly as possible!
He knew what was going on in the rest of the continents through the Sound Ring and was coordinating with Alexander and the rest of the continental rulers
They all took the same orders to strengthen the average strength per individual in their regions before the start of the planetary war, and he did not want the Barnett family and the inhabitants of the Flame Continent to lag behind the rest of their old comrades too much.
The people of the Flame Continent didn't know why their ruler Gu Barnett had pressured them to such an extent to learn and strengthen themselves, but he didn't need a reason either, after what they had been exposed to in the war against the Demons, everyone knew that they were still weak and that gaining strength was the right way to maintain peace.
Even without his pressure everyone in the flame continent was v eager to absorb everything that is thrown at them.
So by the end of the first year after the announcement of Great Green Hill, the Flame Continent was walking shoulder to shoulder with the rest of the three continent
