Chapter 1119 - 516: Bird Official Human Emperor (Part 4)
He called out loudly, his joy overflowing.
It turned out that with Xuanyuan returning to his position and the gathering of the Three Sovereigns of Human Dao, the entire Qi Fortune of Human Dao was thoroughly stabilized, like a Stabilizing Needle suppressing the river of time.
This allowed Red Cloud's whimsical "Earth Immortal Lie and Win Technique" to achieve stage results!
Borrowing this vast Qi Fortune of Human Dao, he finally broke free from the state of being merged with the Grotto Heaven, able to consolidate his physical Dao Body in the real world!
The Three Sovereigns saw this legendary figure and were slightly stunned before quickly reacting, bowing in return.
Wisdom sparkled in Fu Xi's eyes as he praised:
"Daoist's creativity and magical technique are profound, able to transform his body into a Grotto Heaven, thereby integrating with Human Dao's Qi Fortune. Now that the Great Dao has progressed further, eternal days are foreseeable."
Shennong also nodded in amazement, "Indeed, Red Cloud Daoist's method is truly unheard of and unseen before, broadening one's horizons."
Xuanyuan even directly clasped his fists: "Daoist protects our Human Dao Ancestral Court, with great merit to our Human Dao, Xuanyuan expresses gratitude!"
Seeing the Three Sovereigns being so polite, Red Cloud hurriedly waved his hands repeatedly.
He walked happily to the three, face adorned with his signature enthusiastic smile, saying:
"You Daoists are the pillars of Human Dao, I merely bask in your glory!"
He blinked, speaking in a half-joking tone:
"My future prospects are all counted on you!"
~~~~~~
The grand ceremony at Taishan concluded, Xuanyuan having fulfilled his merit, embarked on his journey to Fire Cloud Cave.
The new common lord of the Human Race—Shao Hao, holding the Holy Dao Sword symbolizing the supreme authority of Human Dao, stood at the forefront of the era.
Donning the Golden Virtue Emperor Robe embroidered with the five-colored Phoenix totem, his visage was serene yet resolute, those once gentle eyes now filled with the sharpness and majesty of a monarch.
The gaze of the entire Primordial focused on this young common lord.
People were curious about where this monarch, famed for his Melody and Order, would lead the flourishing Human Dao.
Shao Hao didn't disappoint anyone.
On the third day of his arrival at Chen Capital, he gathered all the important ministers of the Human Race and leaders of Ten Thousand Races, holding the first assembly of his reign in the Human Emperor Hall.
In the grand hall, Shao Hao sat on the Emperor's Throne, his voice clear and firm, resonating in everyone's ears.
"I, born on the West Sea Shore, grew up in Qiongsang Land."
"In days past, Heavenly Emperor Fu Xi emerged from the east, ruling the world with the virtue of green wood, laying the foundation of civilization for Human Dao."
"Earth Emperor Shennong rose from the southern lands, inheriting the position of common lord with the virtue of Flame Fire, paving the way of survival for all people."
"Former Emperor Xuanyuan rose from Ji River, establishing the capital in Zulu Wilderness, ruling Ten Thousand Races with Central Thick Earth virtue, leading Human Dao to prosperity."
"Wood births fire, fire births earth, this is the cycle of Heavenly Dao, the order of heritage in Human Dao."
"Now I hail from the western lands, shall wield the virtue of sharp gold, inherit the Thick Earth of previous emperors, be pioneering and rectifying the Universe!"
"From today forward, I am called—Golden Heaven Clan!"
"Golden Heaven Clan! Golden Heaven Clan!"
The ministers and leaders below the throne were thrilled, shouting loudly, their voices reaching Yun Xiao.
The Five Elements rotate, virtues succeed.
Shao Hao's declaration not only justified his rule but announced to the entire Primordial that Human Dao is entering an entirely new, more pioneering, and exploration-filled era!
Following the declaration, Shao Hao did not indulge in the joy of succession but immediately embarked on his bold reforms.
His first decree was to reform the official system.
The bureaucratic system established during Xuanyuan Era, though perfect, had developed some bloated and unclear responsibility issues over many years.
Shao Hao, with the sharpness and order of the Path of Golden Virtue, conducted a thorough cleanse and refinement of the entire bureaucratic system.
He established the "Five Officials," corresponding to spring, summer, autumn, winter, and central: Spring Official, Summer Official, Autumn Official, Winter Official, and Central Official to manage sacrifice, military, criminal law, construction, and livelihood respectively.
He also set up the "Five Officers," Household Official, Wood Official, Water Official, Fire Official, and Gold Official to manage household registry, forests, rivers, fire policies, and mineral deposits.
The most notable was the creation of a completely new position—Bird Official.
Shao Hao appointed the Phoenix Bird Clan, Mystic Bird Clan, Qing Bird Clan, and Dan Bird Clan.
Phoenix Bird Clan sets the calendar; Mystic Bird Clan oversees timing; Qing Bird Clan manages initiation; Dan Bird Clan administers closures.
"These four clans are my aides."
The four clans bowed, "Certainly!"
He also appointed the Five Jiu Clan.
The Five Jiu, manage affairs of the people.
Zhu Jiu Clan as Minister of Works; Ju Jiu Clan as Minister of War;
Shi Jiu Clan leads civil engineering; Shuang Jiu Clan takes charge of justice; Hu Jiu Clan manages official affairs.
"These five clans review the five directions, measure standards, govern civil matters."
This decree stirred the entire Primordial.
The Phoenix Clan had, since the beginning of the Dragon-Han Initial Catastrophe, hidden away in Nanming Volcano, although friendly with Human Dao, never truly partaking in governance of Human Dao.
Now, Shao Hao unexpectedly elevated the Phoenix Clan to the supreme position of managing time calendars, showing immense trust and pulling the Phoenix Clan close!
This move excited countless avian species friendly to the Phoenix Clan, while others witnessed the new common lord's boldness and magnanimity.
Soon, the Phoenix Clan's Supreme Yuan Huang personally descended on Chen Capital.
Five extraordinarily majestic phoenixes, transformed into five elaborately dressed Divine Officers, officially stationed in Human Dao's government office, working with human officials to revise calendars and observe stars and times.
