Chapter 686: Dividing the Southern Wasteland (1)
 

Cui Zhicheng and Wang Jin could only laugh at the name of the country that Zhu Wuyang had given them. However, when they thought of Zhu Wuyang’s contributions to the destruction of the Sacred Flame Sect and the surrender of the Medicine God Sect, the two Grand Elders felt that it was reasonable.

And before conquering the entire Southern Wasteland and establishing the Great Zhu Immortal Dynasty, Zhu Wuwan still had an extremely important matter to do, which was to divide the territories of the Southern Wasteland.

In fact, Zhu Wuwan had already started to deal with this matter before this, and it was almost done now.

After Zhu Wuwan’s division, the huge Southern Wasteland was divided into 108 prefectures. Each prefecture had 10 counties, each county had 10 counties, and each county had 10 towns. As for the number of villages below the towns, there was no specific number.

Therefore, the huge Southern Wasteland was divided into 108 prefectures, 1080 counties, 10800 counties, 108000 towns, and more than 10 million villages by Zhu Wuwan.

The ruler of a prefecture was the prefecture master, the ruler of a county was the county king, the ruler of a county was the county magistrate, the ruler of a town was the town mayor, and the ruler of a village was the village chief.

In this division, the resources of each of the 108 prefectures were not much different. At least, they maintained a relatively balanced state.

Since the difference in quantity and quality of resources was not big, the difference was mainly reflected in the territory. After all, although some territories were large, they lacked resources. Some territories were small, but their resources were more concentrated.

In order to maintain the balance of resources, some prefectures were especially large, while others were especially small.

The Southern Wasteland was as vast as 10,000 Earths. On average, each prefecture was as large as nearly 100 Earths.

However, in the newly divided territory, the largest prefecture was as big as 500 Earths, and the smallest prefecture was only as big as one Earth. However, the resources in these prefectures were about the same.

Below the prefecture, the resources in each county were also relatively balanced. It was the same for the county, town, and village. Although absolute fairness could not be guaranteed, relative fairness could still be guaranteed.

Apart from the 108 residences, there were three other independent regions. The first region was naturally the Thousand Poison Mountain, where the headquarters and ancestral land of the Thousand Poison Sect were located. It was also the region with the most abundant resources in the Southern Wasteland. It was not part of the 108 residences but the ancestral land and sacred land of the Thousand Poison Sect.

The other two regions were Tianlong Jia and the Skyfall Volcano. These two regions were the second and third best places in the Southern Wasteland. They were extremely rich in resources, second only to the Myriad Poison Mountain.@@novelbin@@

The Skyfall Volcano was the capital of the Great Zhu Celestial Dynasty, while Tianlongjia was the secondary capital. It was also independent of the 108 prefectures and was the foundation of the Great Zhu Celestial Dynasty’s rule over the Southern Wasteland. It belonged exclusively to the Great Zhu Imperial Family.

The 99 mountain ranges of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect would be the rulers of the 99 prefectures in the future. These prefectures would also be named after the mountain ranges. Most importantly, they would be distributed to the prefectures in these 99 mountain ranges. Most of the resources in these mountains would be needed by these mountains, which would better ensure the development and growth of these prefectures.

For example, the Endless Snake Marsh was extremely suitable for the cultivators of Nine Dragon Mountain to cultivate and improve there. Therefore, the Nine Dragon Mansion with Nine Dragon Mountain as the center belonged to Nine Dragon Mountain.

Just the 99 mountain ranges of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect alone occupied more than 90% of the Great Zhu Immortal Dynasty’s territory. The power of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect would also increase dramatically, and its development speed would also soar many times in the future.

In addition, Wuyang Peak, which was ruled by Zhu Wuyang, was also qualified to obtain a residence. This residence was Wuyang Residence, which was located around the Skyfall Volcano.

The original Sacred Flame Sect had also obtained a mansion, which was called the Sacred Flame Mansion. It was temporarily under the direct command of the Myriad Poisons Sect Leader. The mansion that the Medicine God Sect had obtained was the Medicine God Mansion, which was also under the direct command of the Myriad Poisons Sect Leader.

There were still six prefectures left. Zhu Wuwan did not allocate them for the time being. Instead, he prepared to leave them to the big immortal sects in the Southern Wasteland who knew what was good for them. These big immortal sects would be given different prefectures, counties, and so on.

Such a distribution rule obviously took into account the interests of Zhu Wuwan and the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect. It was rather unfriendly to the other immortal sects. Of course, this was relative to the neutral immortal sects. As for the immortal sects that were hostile to the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, there was no longer any in the Southern Wasteland.

There were also some vassal sects and families from the various mountain ranges. Naturally, these mountain ranges were also assigned to different counties, towns, and villages in their respective prefectures. The principle was that the allocated areas had resources suitable for the development of these vassal sects and families. This was also what Zhu Wanwan had requested.

The Imperial Dynasty had absolute control over the 108 prefectures. They could recruit soldiers and collect taxes from the 108 prefectures. At the same time, they could station a certain number of cultivator armies in each prefecture to ensure the protection and basic control of these areas.

Of course, these were the basics. After all, the content involved an area as large as 10,000 Earths. There were too many things to consider.

Therefore, before he ascended to the position of the Thousand Poisons Sect Master, Zhu Wuwan had been planning this for several years and had specially formed a team to do this. This was why he was able to come up with a detailed plan not long after he ascended to the position of the Sect Master.

Naturally, Cui Zhicheng and Wang Jin could see the huge impact of this plan on the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect. Therefore, they only considered it for a moment before agreeing to this plan and handing it over to Zhu Wuyang to handle.

Zhu Wuyang gave the plan to Cui Zhicheng and Wang Jin first to show his respect for them. After all, these two were the First and Second Grand Supreme of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect. On the surface, their status was above him, and both of them had done him a favor.

In fact, with Zhu Wuyang’s current strength, he could basically dominate the entire Southern Wasteland by himself. No one could stop him.

Cui Zhicheng and Wang Jin had also considered this point, so they didn’t really interfere with Zhu Wuyang’s matters. Instead, they often advised Zhu Wuyang not to spend so much time on these complicated matters. His cultivation was the most important.

In Cui Zhicheng and Wang Jin’s opinion, there were very few resources and treasures in the vast Southern Wasteland that could be useful for the Sky Pillar above the Unity Stage. Even if they had great power, the amount they could obtain was very limited.

Since it was very difficult to obtain resources and treasures in this area to increase his strength, he would just focus on cultivating step by step. Why would he waste time on developing his forces? It would purely delay his own cultivation.

However, what the two of them didn’t know was that developing their forces was the fastest shortcut and way for Zhu Wuyang to increase her strength.

The so-called establishment of an aboveground Dao Country by Zhu Wuwan could also be said to be the establishment of an aboveground farm!
