Although Alexander had become the first Pope of the Illuminati Church at this time, he respected Shang Tang, the talented and bold founder of the country, and always regarded himself as a subject, and never showed any disrespect or arrogance.

Shang Tang couldn't find a reason to attack the Guangming Church for a while, and could only watch as the Guangming Church grew day by day, and gradually became a trend that could not be dropped.

As time went by, Shang Tang discovered that not only ordinary people began to believe in the Guangming Church, but even ministers and palaces had concubines and princes who worshiped the Guangming Church.

At the same time, domestic voices calling for the Church of Light to become the state religion are getting stronger and stronger.

Shang Tang realized that he could not wait any longer, and that the Guangming Church must be eradicated as soon as possible, otherwise theocratic power would overwhelm the royal power sooner or later.

And at this moment, the news of Lei Chengyang's death came from the orcs' side, and the whole country of the orcs was in grief and morale was low, which was the perfect time to seize the verdict.

Shang Tang had to make a choice between destroying the Guangming Church and ruling Excalibur.

In fact, he only hesitated for a second before choosing to summon the army to attack the orcs again.

Lei Chengyang has made an indelible contribution to the strength of the beastmen in the decades since he became the beast king, and has won the sincere support of all races.

After his death, the kings of various clans personally took the elites of the clans to Qiluo City to pay homage, resulting in the emptiness of defense forces in various places.

And the human army took advantage of this opportunity to be unstoppable all the way, driving straight all the way, and even killed under Qiluo City in just one month.

This is the first time in history that the army of the human race has killed the orc king city.

While the majesty of Qiluo City amazes the people, it is also helpless.

Shang Tang looked at the hundreds of meters high city wall and couldn't think of any way to do it. Even if he took his life to fill it, he couldn't fill the city wall.

Shang Tang made a tentative attack, but left behind tens of thousands of corpses, and withdrew in embarrassment.

And the orcs were united like never before because of Shang Tang's attack at this time, and at the same time they were united like never before. Even the blood warrior Rus of the bears broke through to the second level under this stimulation.

The orcs quickly embraced Ruth as the new generation of beast king, and led the orcs to organize a large-scale counterattack.

With the existence on the battlefield that can confront Shang Tang head-on, and the orcs have the Excalibur of Judgment in their hands, the situation on the battlefield suddenly reversed.

In a head-to-head confrontation, Shang Tang was defeated by Ruth holding the verdict, and the human army was also attacked by the orcs from all over the city and suffered heavy losses.

In the end, Shang Tang fled back to the territory of the human race with the remaining tens of thousands of troops after the Glory Knights desperately broke up.

Shang Tang's prestige was hit hard, but at this time the target was shifted to the Guangming Church.

In the following year, Shang Tang announced that the Creation Theology created by Han Fei was the state religion, and that the Guangming Church was a heresy that believed in false gods, and ordered people to spread rumors about the Guangming Church, such as taking the organs of living people for sacrifices, drinking human organs, etc. Blood, incest, and other evil deeds that the secular society cannot bear are imposed on the Illuminati Church.

Shang Tang started a nationwide three-year extermination campaign. Soldiers destroyed churches of the Guangming Church in various places, arrested local bishops, and executed them directly without trial.

Naturally, Alexander would not sit still. He announced that Shang Tang was possessed by a demon and would be purified by the radiance crowned by the Goddess of Light.

So far, the Great Shang Dynasty and the Guangming Church have launched a struggle for royal power and theocracy.

The Church of Light has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people for decades, and their white-robed monks often use healing techniques to treat poor people, so they have a very broad foundation. Even if Shang Tang has a powerful army, it is difficult to completely wipe out the Church of Light.

It directly led to this struggle, which lasted for 20 years, known as the "20 Years War" in history.

It wasn't until Alexander broke through to the second level that the Church of Light changed from passive defense to being able to counterattack.

Shang Tang knew that the Guangming Church had become a major trend, and if they were forced to use force to eliminate them, it would only greatly damage the strength of the race and give the orcs an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Without the protection of the light magic of the white-robed monks of the Church of Light and the Judgment Knights, the vampires began to wreak havoc again.

There were many complaints among the people, which caused Shang Tang's prestige to drop again and again, and he was forced to negotiate with Alexander.

In the 131st year of the Great Shang Dynasty, after half a year of repeated bargaining, Shang Tang issued an edict to tolerate the Bright Church in the imperial capital.

This edict declared that there was freedom to believe in the Guangming Church in the territory of the Shang Dynasty, and returned the confiscated church property, and also recognized the legal status of the Guangming Church. It is known as the "Emperor's Edict" in history.

The "Emperor's Edict" was a turning point in the history of the Guangming Church, marking the transformation of the Shang Dynasty from a policy of repression to a policy of exploiting it, and from a persecuted "underground religion" to a recognized religion.

As a price, the Church of Light must immediately suppress vampires when they appear.

Since then, the two sides have carried out a clear division of power. Shang Tang does not intervene in the internal affairs of the church, and the church strictly prohibits obtaining political power through its own influence. The royal power and the divine power do not interfere with each other.

In the blink of an eye, a hundred years passed, and Shang Tang finally failed to break through the third level and died.

Chen Luo couldn't help but feel sorry for seeing this, Shang Tang finally fell into the same situation as Han Fei.

Han Fei was obsessed with power, ignored his own strength, and finally tried God to save him.

At the beginning, Shang Tang was also considered wise and powerful, but because of the emergence of the Guangming Church, he was afraid that his authority would be threatened, and fell into a power struggle and couldn't extricate himself.

Shang Tang also knows that improving one's own strength is the core, but what he is obsessed with is the power of the judgment sword, and wants to make himself invincible through the judgment.

That's why he has been obsessed with that artifact, launching wars again and again.

However, Shang Tang’s life in this life can be considered wonderful. Starting from obtaining the blood of the gods, he counterattacked all the way and became the founding monarch of the new dynasty. Although what he did in the second half was not so glorious, overall the merit outweighs the fault , at least much better than Han Fei's back then.

After Shang Tang's death, the whole country mourned, and the memorial activities were held for a full month, and a huge 50-meter-high bronze statue was cast for him outside the palace square for future generations to admire the heroic appearance of the founding monarch.

Even the Guangming Church, which has always been at odds with Shang Tang, declared him to be the Holy Spirit. He did not die, but ascended to bliss and returned to the kingdom of God under the crown of the Goddess of Light.

When Chen Luo saw this, he immediately kicked the only surviving player, Cain, out of the game, and posted an update announcement on the forum.
