C437 On Three Ways to Become a Grand Duke

4In the northern city of the Taotang Duchy, in the Profound Heaven Palace, the largest main hall was named Ding Xiao Palace.

This was the place where Taotang Duchy discussed the affairs of the nation everyday and was also the center of power.

At the center of the hall, there was a tall chair made of gold and jade tiles.

Engraved on it were various images that looked like murals.

From the founding of Taizu, Lee Che, all the traces of Grand Duke's reign as the ruler of Tao and Tang appeared on this throne.

Over a thousand years, more than a hundred figures had sat upon this throne.

And today, the throne had been crowned by the youngest master in history!

Lee Shi was wearing a red robe with a white crane embroidered on it. He wore a purple and gold belt around his waist and black boots. Step by step, he walked towards the throne.

In the center of the throne, a dark black Miter crown was placed on top of it.

On the crown, there were three orbs, three red-brown orbs for each sulfur. There were many mysterious auras that flowed out from the Miter, as if they were summoning Lee Shi.

Beside the Miter, there was a moon-white seal. The seal was square like a four-legged cauldron, and it emitted a similar aura as the Miter beside it.

These two items were not for decoration!

The Profound Emperor Continent naturally possessed a miraculous heavenly way, a way of cultivation, and a human way of moving. It examined all living things in the world.

For example, the imperial court could not easily stand up against the might of the Heavenly Scourge.

Similarly, a city could be built at will, but the mayor couldn't do it as he pleased. He needed the mayor's seal!

Similarly, you could build a kingdom at will, but the Emperor depended on the Paragon's rank!

What is a Emperor? The cities, duchies, kingdoms, empires, and even the most elite empires, are called Emperor!

What was a rank? City lord, Grand Duke, the king, the emperor, and the emperor were all for the position!

Those with Grand Duke's rank could be called Duchies under the rule of the kingdom!

The title could be inherited in the right places, could be bestowed by the Upper Realm, and could also be appraised by the Heaven and Earth.

Usually, they owned land within ten cities, which could be appraised using Grand Duke's Seal of Grand Duke and Grand Duke's Miter.

Miter connected to the heavens, Official Seal sensed to the earth, and the two could be considered national destiny!

The ruler of a country, through these two things, can sense the heavens and the earth. Those who pass the test, can call themselves Grand Duke!

A thousand years ago, Lee Che made a name for himself in Yi Yuan City and after unifying the seven cities, he made people forge these two things in front of their eyes.

Then, through the appraisal of the heaven and earth, he became Tao Tang's first disciple, Grand Duke, the founding ancestor!

The bestowal of the country was to bestow these two items to someone through some sort of ceremony, allowing them to directly become Grand Duke!

This method was common among those who had no freedom and could only listen to the commands of their slaves in the land above.

Inheriting in the right position required a corresponding test in order to be acknowledged by the world and become the legitimate Grand Duke!

This was the rule of succession!

And Lee Shi, he was going through the third method — Succession.

With his left hand pressing on the Miter, he held Grand Duke's seal in his right hand!3

Liu Ruwei felt as if he had turned into an invisible spirit body, floating in this world of Tao Tang's.

His consciousness first floated up, almost as if it were flying up into the sky, growing higher and higher.

The entire Tao Tang region turned into a scene overlooking the painting. Mountains, rivers, towns, villages, flowers, plants, forests … They were all reflected in his consciousness.

This kind of feeling was as if he had turned into a god, overlooking the vast world.

In the normal and ordinary sky before, there seemed to be many mysterious air currents circulating about.

These streams of air were different from the earth energy and human aura that Son Of Heaven's Qi Watching Method had seen, they were the true energy of the heavens!
