[AN: Kong's POV will end in the next chapter. We can see Wang Wei again. Yeah!]

Kong opened his eyes and finally exhaled. After so many years, he finally absorbed enough nourishment for his seed and established his foundation. He added the characteristic of [Virtue and Benevolence] to his [Existence], further elevating his [True Self] or existence as a higher being.
Although this particular characteristic does little in battle, it's an excellent boost to charisma, leadership skill, judging good and evil, and more. As someone dedicated to reviving the Literary Way, Kong was more than happy with their powers.
'After so many years, I've finally reached this point,' Emperor Kong thought. His excitement was beyond words to explain. Even if the expedition were to end right now, he would be more than satisfied. However, he knew this was just the beginning.
"Congratulations, Great Sage Qi, you are the 267th Literary Lord," a small spirit said. "I hope you have a prosperous reign."
