Cultivation Helped by Ancestors

Chapter 756: Chapter 519: Sequence Nine, Sequence Eight

That is true power.

According to Zhang Qi’s understanding, Immortals from departments like the Celestial Soldier Camp, Divine General Palace, Celestial King Hall, Patrol Hall, etc., hold real power as Immortal Officials.

Nominally, they also belong to the Celestial Court of the Central Celestial Realm.

However, their salaries are distributed by the Three Emperors Celestial Palace.

"It seems staying in the Three Emperors Celestial Realm has turned out to be a blessing in disguise!"

Seated at the lower right, the Dong Shen Ancestor’s expression remained unchanged, but there was a ripple in his eyes.

He was just a step away from becoming a Celestial Immortal, but he knew that even if following the Ling Yuan Emperor into the Central Celestial Realm, he might not be able to secure a formal Immortal Position, not even enough to compete for the twelve preparatory Immortal Positions.

The number of Celestial Immortals present was already considerable.

In comparison, they had a better chance of acquiring an Immortal Position.

Moreover, it’s likely that some Immortal Positions in the Ling Yuan Emperor’s Mansion would fall into the hands of the Tongshan Dao Lineage.

That’s human nature and an inevitability.

Now that they stayed with the Zhangs of Tonglu, they could naturally share the benefits of the Three Emperors Celestial Realm.

And secure formal Immortal Official positions.

The De Yang Ancestor also felt grateful in his heart.

"Fortunately, I didn’t oppose, or I’d surely miss the opportunity..."

In fact, he had wanted to raise objections just now, but luckily he was intimidated by the Emperor’s Might of this Ling Yuan Emperor and didn’t speak out; otherwise, it would have been a laughingstock.

"Ah Yu, is this true? What rank are you in the sequence?"

At this moment, Zhang Yi was somewhat excited, unable to resist standing up.

Behind him were seven or eight Female Cultivators or Female Immortals with bright eyes.

They were the concubines Zhang Yi had taken over the years, mostly ’sugar-coated bombs’ sent from the Tianding Celestial Realm and other realms. While other family members of the Zhang clan were steadfast, Zhang Yi accepted them all without reservation.

Behind him were also dozens of young men and women, who were Zhang Jian’s siblings, nephews, nieces, grand-nephews...

Zhang Jian nodded slightly and said.

"Indeed, currently in the sequence of Tier Three Elders, my rank is nine!"

Zhang Yi immediately laughed heartily, having stayed in the Three Emperors City for twenty thousand years, he was very familiar with the value of rank nine.

That is the highest tier in the Elder sequence.

In the Three Emperors City, it carries significant authority.

Even in such Divine Kingdoms like the Tianding Celestial Realm, there is no rank exceeding seven across the entire nation, let alone rank nine.

The other Female Cultivators behind him also showed expressions of surprise.

The sequence is usually directly connected to a Cultivator’s aptitude, Dao Skill, Destiny, or accomplishments.

This is the same in the Central Celestial Realm.

Being directly awarded rank nine by the Three Emperors and Five Elders Assembly naturally indicates corresponding ability.

According to their knowledge, even in the depths of Saint Emperor Dao Lineage, rank nine Elders are exceedingly rare.

In the distance, Qi Yuhua and Bai Liying also looked over with wonderful eyes, with some delight in their eyes.

Zhang Jian’s gaze swept over everyone, seeing the changes in the expressions of numerous Immortal Gods, his mouth suddenly curled into a slight smile.

"I am an Elder of Haosheng Hall, and simultaneously have eight official Immortal Official positions belonging to Haosheng Hall!

Among them, four are Middle-level Immortal Officials, and four are Junior Immortal Officials!"

Zhang Jian’s gaze swept over the crowd and said.

"Although Haosheng Hall is a civil institution, mainly responsible for categorizing archives and guarding the classics, it excels in its prestige!"

"However, Middle-Level Immortal Officials typically require Dao Practice above the Taiyi Realm, while the four Junior Immortal Official positions only require the Celestial Immortal Level. Zhang Qi, Tian Rui, Tianxiang, Tianhe, among you four, Tianxiang and Tianhe prefer tranquility, so you two will temporarily enter Haosheng Hall to fill two Junior Immortal Official positions!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Tianhe and Zhang Tianxiang, who wore colorful clothes nearby, both showed some surprise and immediately accepted.

"As for Tian Rui, I plan to recommend you to enter the Divine General Palace and take up Martial Preparation Immortal Position. You need to make some preparations!"

Zhang Jian’s gaze fell on this eldest grandson.

Zhang Tianrui is a third-generation eldest grandson, son of Zhang Yi, also a Dragon Child, with an exceptionally pure bloodline, possessing innate divine blood of wind and thunder attribute, although he hasn’t yet transformed into an Innate Divine Body.

But he also possesses an Innate Dao Body of the powerful wind and thunder attribute.

Innate Nine Heavens Dao Body!

"I am willing to follow the Emperor’s arrangements!"

Zhang Tianrui clasped his hands and agreed.

Zhang Jian nodded slightly.

Having decided to become part of the Three Emperors and Five Elders Assembly, the Zhangs cannot be without actual power in the Assembly, and he needs to cultivate a group of direct lineage experts to control authority and take care of the Zhangs of Tonglu.

It would be unwise to run to negotiate with other experts over small matters.

Frequent exchanges would only undermine one’s own dignity and invite ridicule.

Regarding the remaining four Middle-Level Immortal Official positions and two Junior Immortal Official positions belonging to Haosheng Hall, Zhang Jian temporarily retains them or plans to make a deal with the Tongshan Dao Lineage.

Meanwhile, Zhang Jian also comforted Zhang Qi with a few words, saying that after he breaks through to the Celestial Immortal, he will surely be given important tasks and so on.

After deciding on the candidates to stay, Zhang Jian instructed everyone to prepare a bit, and went to the Zhang’s outer residence himself.

The Tianding Immortal Monarch from the Tianding Celestial Realm had received the news and had rushed to bid farewell to everyone; of course, more importantly, to meet Zhang Jian, the nephew of his master.

The Zhangs have been able to develop steadily over the twenty thousand years, thanks to the care of the Tianding Immortal Monarch, and Zhang Jian had a good impression of his Tianding Uncle Master.

...

Central Celestial Realm, Wanyun Ferry.

Seeing the distant edges of the Sea of Realms, huge ship towers breaking through the space-time realm, coming from afar.

At this time, Wanyun Ferry was heavily guarded, Immortal Light filled the void, and many Immortals held Dharma Artifacts, ready in formation.
