Chapter 820 The Divine Seal is Completed
Shortly after.
The main entrance of Gan Mansion.
Under the incense table, Gan Yu knelt down on the ground with his wife, concubines, children, servants and maids.
A cloud of auspiciousness fell in front, and among them was an angel who was slowly reading out the imperial edict:
“The emperor’s system is entrusted to the emperor and he says: Jinshi Gan Yu, who is loyal to the king and enlightens one side, is specially given the Eighth Grade Taishang Daoting Beidou Secret, and is appointed as the Eighth Grade Zhongyong Colonel of Heishi County, Panlong Prefecture. I admire this!”
The angel finished reading the imperial edict and said sharply: "Master Gan, accept the edict!"
Gan Yu looked like she was crying or smiling, and felt a little resistant in her heart.
But as a person who has been "entrusted", facing the imperial edict and the angel that represent the majesty of the emperor, he can't resist at all, and can only kowtow: "I accept the edict and thank you!"
Even if the court gave him a glass of poisonous wine to kill him, Gan Yu could only do the same.
With this kowtow, a Taoist drum suddenly shone brightly and floated down, replacing the original Taoist drum in Gan Yu's body.
Gan Yu stood up with only one thought in his mind: "Who wants to harm me?!"
If it were another county that was promoted from the ninth grade all the way to the eighth grade, and instantly raised one grade or two, then he would have to kneel down and kowtow to the person who promoted him.
Although the officialdom pays attention to one step at a time, they are very contemptuous of the "lucky little people" who ride in helicopters, and there is much resistance.
But he didn’t want to be an official of the first rank and have his name go down in history.
Only those scholars who aspire to become famous ministers and powerful officials will pay special attention to this kind of evaluation. They pay attention to climbing up step by step, having a solid foundation and making a wide range of friends.
But Gan Yu is unlikely to reach the fifth rank in this life, so being promoted is a good thing!
Being able to be selected successfully and having a clergy, I am grateful for zero.
As for upgrading levels one after another? That's a great thing...after all, it's difficult to improve the divine level, and each level represents a huge gap in strength.
And the gap in strength is the gap in status and treatment!
Given how difficult it is to get promoted in the Taoist court, Jinshi is nothing at all. Even though there are many people who waste their time and die of old age.
Moreover, all of them are in actual positions much lower than casual officials, and there are very few of them with the same rank.
But Heishi County, Panlong Prefecture?
Who doesn’t know that Panlong Mansion is located in Zhuzhou, and rebels have been everywhere in the past twenty years!
As a Jinshi, Gan Yu had the intelligence channels of the government, and he also knew that since the rebellion of the mountain gods in Heiyun Mountain twenty years ago, the imperial court had sent out high-ranking officials to carry out several encirclement and suppression campaigns... but they were all defeated!
From the beginning he was a fifth-rank guerrilla general, to later a third-rank mighty general, and even to the governor and grand master...
How many famous ministers and generals who are famous all over the world have all been tricked by Zhuzhou...
Many Jinshi in the capital also died in that bottomless pit.
Ten years ago, there were still Jinshi who would try their best to become an official. Nowadays, many Jinshi do not want to die in Zhuzhou even if they cannot become an official in their lifetime!
How come this drudgery has fallen on me now?
Gan Yu wants to cry but has no tears.
But again, with the imperial edict, even if it means killing his whole family and annihilating his entire clan... The laws of Taoism are so majestic and frightening that Gan Yu can only accept the edict respectfully and thank him!
Now that he is promoted to be a captain, he naturally has to go.
"Please also ask the angel to show your favor, and ask your subordinates to prepare a small amount of wine to entertain..."
Gan Yu calmed down and prepared to keep this angel and inquire about it.
But the angel smiled slightly: "We have other business matters at home, so we won't stay any longer. Mr. Gan, pay attention, you must take office within one month, otherwise you will be beheaded..."
Gan Yu looked at the angel's leaving figure, and suddenly felt a shiver in his heart: "Official duties...do I have to go to declare the decree...Isn't the redundant officials of the Taoist court not enough?"
At the thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
How brutal should the battle from state to state be?
…
State by state.
Mei Changkong controlled a flying sword, a spiritual weapon, and moved freely among a group of officers and soldiers.
“Rebels and thieves will die!”
A general roared angrily, rose into the air, and thrust his spear fiercely.
But the next moment, a talisman on Mei Changkong burned and turned into an extremely thick rock shield.
The spear pierced the rock and broke immediately.
Mei Changkong controlled the flying sword, and the sword passed through the heart of the general. The cold sword energy crazily destroyed his soul.
“Kill…kill the thief…”
The general stared angrily, and finally lost his breath.
“Haha, so happy!”
After building the foundation, Mei Changkong looked younger. He used the flying sword to kill all the remaining officers and soldiers, and then left with the light of the sword.
He received the favor of the mountain **** and gave him a panacea. He finally succeeded in building the foundation ten years ago, and then went to kill the thief Cao.
From then on, An Xin became a rebel in Zhuzhou.
In this world, there is a saying that "the law does not add noble people". Even those Taoist priests who are successful in cultivation can hardly use magic to confuse noble people, let alone rebel.
The reason is that he took a shortcut and submitted to the law of Tao through the teaching.
Even if the Taoism and Dharma are successful, if they are used against high-ranking officials, they will commit the following offenses. Naturally, there will be no good results...
But Mei Changkong is different. He has not been taught the secrets, and he also practices immortal skills. He is not restricted by the Taoist court, and he is a real rebel.
But Mei Changkong only felt happy.
Heiyun Mountain, Mountain God’s Mansion. Mei Changkong pressed down the escape light and saw Bai Tongzi coming out: "The mountain **** has summoned me!"
His expression turned solemn: "I'll go right away."
Mei Changkong walked into the mountain and saw a magnificent hall. Compared with the simplicity of 20 years ago, it was a completely different world.
A young mountain **** wearing a green crown, sitting upright on a throne, with a majestic appearance, and a green cloud above his head, as clear as jade, which shocked Mei Changkong at the first sight.
“Meet the mountain god.”
When he saw Fang Xi, he immediately bowed.
"You have the blood and resentment in you...are you going to kill those officers and soldiers again?" Fang Xi opened her eyes and said calmly.
“Those imperial officers and soldiers who dare to come to drive out the state do not take the mountain **** in their eyes and should be killed...” Mei Changkong replied firmly.
Fang Xi couldn't help but remain silent.
After a moment, he said: "There are too many killings and too much evil, which is not good for you."
Mei Changkong, who was kneeling, straightened his back: "Master Mountain God, only Shintoism pays attention to merit. What I practice is Immortal Dao... Immortal Dao is free and unfettered. God will not reward you if you are a living person, and you will not be rewarded if you kill tens of millions of people." What punishment will there be..."
‘…’
Fang Xi could not help but feel silently that Mei Changkong seemed to be growing crookedly.
But it doesn’t matter, he is a guinea pig in the Immortal Way.
‘I didn’t expect that he turned out to be a swordsman…’
‘Naihe...Although the immortal way is unrestrained, people cannot live in a vacuum. Immortal cultivators live in this world and take inspiration from heaven and earth to practice, and they will naturally be affected by heaven and earth...The laws of luck and cause and effect in this world are very strict. ’
‘If you kill too much, I’m afraid there will be no retribution…’
Over Fang Xi’s head, a Qi Luck Gu was swimming leisurely in the blue clouds.
Under his gaze, three feet of light above Mei Changkong's head was like a long sword, emitting a ray of light that was dazzling.
This is the Qi of his sword cultivation and foundation building cultivation.
And above the three feet of light, there is a blood-red cloud, almost forming a situation like a dark cloud covering the sky.
The reason why he did not fall completely was that Mei Changkong resisted with his own cultivation, and the mountain **** favored him.
Only a trace of green thread was seen, like a fishing line. Although it was weak, it 'fished' the layer of blood-red evil energy and kept it from falling.
This is Fang Xi's favor.
If he is too lazy to pay attention to it and this ray of green luck breaks, then it will be difficult for Mei Changkong alone to survive the backlash of this karmic fate...
“That’s it, go down.”
For this person, he just gave a few words, waved his hand for Mei Changkong to step back, remained silent for a moment, and then rolled his sleeves.
A piece of sapphire-like divine power immediately blocked the entire hall.
Above his head, deep in the blue clouds, a Shinto talisman edict looked like sapphire, with purple divine inscriptions on it, and it was written boldly-'the third-grade Black Mountain God'!
Fang Xi was originally a fourth-grade mountain **** from Heiyun Mountain, but later he rebelled and took over Lianyun Mountain.
Afterwards, they successively defeated the various crusade armies of the imperial court, gradually occupied Zhuzhou, and either killed or incorporated the mountain gods, land, city gods and other people from all over the country. They had unified the Zhuzhou territory, and occupied the core section of the Dragon Vein, changing Heiyun Mountain to Black Mountain. , as the center of Zhuzhou.
As a mountain **** of the Black Mountains, I was promoted to the third rank!
“A **** of the third rank, his divine power is pure green, without a trace of gold... But this seems to be the limit of the amount of incense in a state.”
Fang Xi murmured.
This third-grade priesthood is supported by Zhuzhou's earth-line inspiration. It has nothing to do with his own strength. It is purely the power of Shinto.
"Besides... the incarnation of heretics also had a lot of fun at Panlong Lake... Now he has called himself the 'Hunshui Great Sage', and drove Mr. Panlong Lake out of Panlong Lake and occupied his Dragon Palace... and also captured many clam girls and dragon girls. Bei Nu playing..."
Speaking of reality, even without the cooperation of the heretic incarnation, there is not much problem for the Shinto incarnation to occupy Zhuzhou. It is more appropriate to call it the 'Hunzi Great Sage'.
The most dangerous time was when the Grand Master of the first rank of Daotingzheng set up a large formation.
It is equivalent to a formation formed by a monk who transforms into gods. Although with the power of Shinto, the trap can be killed even if the soul transforms perfectly.
But for the incarnation of Shinto who was already at the sixth level, it was like a worm shaking a tree.
Since that time, Daoting seems to have been completely quiet. Except for occasionally sending some low-level gods to die, no high-ranking officials above the third level have shown up.
‘It seems that we are tacitly admitting the fall of Zhuzhou, but we can’t admit it, so we can only send some unlucky people here every year to show off... and by the way, it can also consume a lot of redundant officials? Is this the legendary bad thing that happens when bad things happen? ’
‘Sure enough, there is a crisis, and when there is danger, there is an opportunity... I am here to reduce the burden on the Taoist court. If you want to recruit people, you must at least be granted a title...'
Fang Xi thought jokingly.
In fact, now, he has almost nothing to ask for from Daoting.
The reason I have been procrastinating at this point is just for another thing.
A green light flashed in his hand, and a seal appeared.
This seal is as green as jade, and there is no trace of the appearance of the stone seal. It is the former "Treasure of Qingtong Lord"!
After 20 years of uninterrupted sacrificing with the cyan divine power, Fang Xi gradually lost the self-obscuring appearance of a divine object, revealing its true essence.
Even the cracks are constantly being healed, and now only a trace remains.
“When I refine this seal, I will go directly to become the father of the Emperor!”
Fang Xi could sense that this seal was only a hair away from being completely refined.
He no longer hesitated, and the cyan divine power fell from the top of his head, pouring into the divine seal like a waterfall.
On the blue divine seal, the last crack was closed, and suddenly there was a clear sound, and the light shined brightly.
Then, mysterious messages poured into Fang Xi’s sea of consciousness.
A look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face!
