The entire populace was connected to the Spiritual Pivot Network, allowing a census of all citizens across the entire Empire and the creation of personalized identity verification within the Spiritual Pivot Network.
For ordinary citizens, this asure might only an an extra tool to simplify their lives.
But for fugitives with outstanding cases, especially the universally reviled Evil Soul Masters, this was undoubtedly a disaster.
Under the near-omnipresent surveillance of the Spiritual Pivot Network, their whereabouts were virtually impossible to hide.
The enforcent teams of the "Supervisory Bureau" would strike precisely based on the System's markers, executing anyone who resisted.
Even those who managed to escape the first wave of pursuit would face a second, a third, and an endless stream of purges until the target was completely neutralized.
In just half a month since the Spiritual Pivot Network went online, the security level in the Empire's major cities soared by several Ranks, and scattered Evil Soul Masters and fugitives on the run were almost entirely swept away.
Furthermore, thanks to the Spiritual Pivot Network's built-in real-ti recording and feedback functions, public security officials themselves were also under the supervision of the "Supervisory System."
Any who neglected their duties, offered protection, or even colluded with malicious forces would similarly be marked by the System.
This directly caused many officials, who were previously arrogant and deceitful, to beco "law-abiding."
After all, the "Supervisory Bureau" only recognized the System's markers when handling cases and showed absolutely no rcy.
Execute first, report later—Imperial authorization!
What, dissatisfied? If you are dissatisfied, go talk to our director, Silver Moon Douluo Kong Deming!
In addition to this iron-fisted governance, the Spiritual Pivot Network also offered various forms of assistance.
For instance, in terms of livelihood, it provided food to commoners struggling to make ends et, helping them sustain their lives; in terms of education, it offered children intellectual enlightennt; and even in terms of dical care, it provided real-ti scanning of physical conditions, allowing for imdiate dical attention if a problem arose.
In short, the greatest beneficiaries of the Spiritual Pivot Network's proliferation were undoubtedly the common people throughout the Sun Moon Empire.
The Empire's cohesion increased almost visibly.
Long Xiaoyao listened silently, muttering softly, "Is that so? Well, yes, it certainly counts as a good thing."
He picked up his teacup, only to put it down again, letting out a nearly inaudible sigh, "It is only a pity that it is not entirely a good thing."
He shook his head.
Admittedly, the changes brought by the Spiritual Pivot Network were imnse, making the entire Sun Moon Empire seem reborn.
But unfortunately, this seemingly flawless net had already been torn open by an invisible breach.
The current Crown Prince Your Highness hired their Holy Spirit Cult to obtain the construction thod for the Spiritual Pivot Network in advance.
Initially, they thought it was just a simple hire; however, who would have thought that after obtaining the materials, Ye Xishui copied a portion of the data, and subsequently, successfully cracked it.
Before the Spiritual Pivot Network fully expanded and completely covered the entire Sun Moon Empire, Ye Xishui had a burst of inspiration and successfully cracked the Spiritual Pivot Network, using it as a foundation to reverse-engineer a "Disguise System."
Relying on this System, the core mbers of the Holy Spirit Cult were able to hide their unique Evil Soul Master aura and Soul fluctuations within the Spiritual Pivot Network, temporarily evading the "Supervisory System's" scan.
Although the other side seed to have noticed and perford an upgrade on the Spiritual Pivot Network, making this disguise unsustainable long-term—requiring limited "keys" to be updated regularly to maintain it—it was effective nonetheless.
For example, right now, the Holy Spirit Cult was using this "Disguise System" to send secret assembly invitations via the Spiritual Pivot Network itself to all remaining, constantly fleeing Evil Soul Masters and Spirit Master criminals within the Empire.
And the destination was the Evil Demon Forest, one of the few lawless areas within the Sun Moon Empire that had not yet been covered by the Spiritual Pivot Network signal.
That is, the Holy Spirit Cult Headquarters.
The irony lies here: the Spiritual Pivot Network's encirclent not only failed to find the Holy Spirit Cult hiding behind the scenes, but instead acted like a cruel screening and coercion, causing a large number of desperate, scattered Evil Soul Masters and other criminals to choose to defect to this largest Evil Soul Master organization, seeking refuge.
Currently, deep within the Evil Demon Forest, the Holy Spirit Cult has gathered more than twenty powerhouses of the Titled Douluo Rank!
Their power is unprecedented.
Ye Xishui recently even developed a "Evil Soul Master Search System" again through the Spiritual Pivot Network, preparing to use it to expand into the Douluo Three Kingdoms and recruit Evil Soul Masters from there.
The Holy Spirit Cult is currently thriving.
Long Xiaoyao sighed internally; if not for the astonishing power and prestige of Kong Deming, who presided over the Mingdu, Ye Xishui would probably have long been unable to restrain herself, dragging him and the Crown Prince Your Highness into starting the subversion of the Sun Moon Empire.
As it stands, they can only secretly accumulate strength; once Ye Xishui's terrifying Tower of Death is completely finished, a bloodbath will likely await the Sun Moon Empire.
After a long ti, Long Xiaoyao collected his scattered thoughts and asked, "How much longer can your Disguise System last?"
Zhang Peng sensed it and replied, "It can roughly last for one more day."
Long Xiaoyao nodded, stood up, and his black robe billowed without wind: "Let's go. According to orders, we still need to bring several newly found companions back to the Holy Spirit Cult today."
Zhang Peng also stood up and respectfully responded, "Yes, Dragon Emperor."
The two said no more, left money for the tea, and quietly left the teahouse, rging into the flowing crowd below.
However, neither Long Xiaoyao nor Zhang Peng themselves noticed that,
In the deepest parts of their eyes, both during their recent conversation and while they walked now, a trace of extrely faint, pale silver light occasionally flashed, almost blending with the natural color of their pupils.
Like an illusion, yet genuinely present, undetectable by anyone... Inside the laboratory of the Kong Family Chamber of Comrce.
Kong Mingan, leaning sowhat lazily on a comfortable sofa, routinely checked the progress bar of a program he called the "Garbage Cleanup Plan" via the Spiritual Pivot Network.
Watching the steadily rising progress bar based on the data feedback, he nodded slightly, feeling rather satisfied.
This was like when cleaning up scattered garbage: before sweeping, one uses a broom to gather it all together, then uses a dustpan to scoop it up and dump it into the trash can.
Compared to the ti-consuming and laborious task of cleaning up scattered Evil Soul Masters one by one, it was much more efficient and less strenuous to find a way to make the Evil Soul Masters obediently gather together, then dispose of them all at once.
Although he couldn't achieve things like killing targets out of thin air using the Spiritual Pivot Network, he still possessed so minor abilities.
For example, subtly influencing the subconscious of a certain Limit Douluo, giving her a flash of inspiration that generated the idea to crack the Spiritual Pivot Network and create both the "Disguise System" and the "Evil Soul Master Search System" for contacting her kind.
She is, after all, a Rank 9 Soul Engineer who will eventually be able to manufacture Rank 10 spirit tools; dealing with a re Spiritual Pivot Network is naturally trivial for her.
This is perfectly reasonable.
