One could almost figure it out with one's toes: the Heavenly Guard Soldier, a legendary title that not even many Dao Ancestors had obtained, surely came with conveniences and authority so great they were astonishing.
After all, the authority of a Guardian Emperor was already laid out in plain sight, known to everyone far and wide.
But after thinking it over, Yang Chen still decided to give up on it for the time being.
According to his estimates, even if he handed over every expert under his command, he would need as much as five hundred million Cosmic Essence to advance to Heavenly Guard Soldier.
To scrape together such a vast amount of Cosmic Essence, he would have to keep all of his Heavenly Mandate Realm, Heavenly Separation Realm, and Transcendent Realm experts.
