Cultivation Helped by Ancestors

Chapter 719: Chapter 503: Ascension of the Household (Part 2) (4K)

The civil and military officials were naturally delighted at the prospect of ascending to the Celestial Palace alongside the Great Xia Saint King, Zhang Jian.

They even almost came to internal strife in order to fight over the slots.

After all, True Immortals from this realm find it difficult to enter the Celestial Realm.

Even if they manage to get there through special channels from the Outer World, with the cultivation level of True Immortal, it is very hard to obtain an Immortal Position in the Central Celestial Realm’s Celestial Court.

True Immortals have no competitive edge.

Many ancestors from the Immortal Sect Dao Lineages are also unwilling to be mere cannon fodder.

However, ascending with this Great Xia Saint King is entirely different.

After the Great Xia Saint King’s ascension, it is heard that he will first enter the Human Race Sacred Land, Fire Cloud Cave.

Those Human Emperors who have entered the Fire Cloud Cave, whether serving as officials in the Celestial Realm or going to other celestial realms to serve as local Immortal Officials, at least start from Middle-Level. Moreover, the Great Xia Royal Family has already released the news that the Great Xia Saint King has been conferred by the Jade Emperor of the Central Celestial Realm’s Celestial Court, starting as an Upper-Level Immortal Official, directly surpassing the middle rank.

Most of the immortals from various Immortal Sect Dao Lineages are very savvy and fully understand what this entails.

Middle-Level Immortal Officials are already capable of establishing their own jurisdiction and governing a region.

The Upper-Level Immortal Official rank is extremely high. Given the Great Xia Saint King’s credentials, being an Innate Body, a Divine Dao Emperor, and a Human Emperor body, he is bound to be entrusted with significant responsibilities and is highly likely to ascend straight to Celestial Emperor status.

Following this Celestial Emperor, they would essentially have a reliable backing in the Celestial Realm, and their status would also rise accordingly.

Not to mention promotions, at least they wouldn’t be easily treated as cannon fodder or directly dispatched to the Celestial Army Camp to serve as Celestial Soldiers and Generals.

Soon after, large patches of auspicious clouds appeared, and amidst the radiant clouds, a magnificent Golden Phoenix surrounded by intense Immortal Light rushed forth in an instant.

The Phoenix Spirit directly manifested her Golden Phoenix form, showing a joyful glint in her deep eyes, indicating for Zhang Jian to come to her back directly.

Zhang Jian, having a spiritual resonance with her, naturally sensed her intention, but he refused her good intentions, instead with a wave of his hand, a majestic Red Dragon appeared amidst the clouds.

That majestic Red Dragon revolved, its national destiny shook, and the boundless Emperor’s Qi and Dragon Qi converged, surging straight towards Dou Niu.

This was the Dharma-Protecting Dragon God he condensed after his ascension to Tier Four through the National Fate Immortal Technique of the Nine Dragon Scripture.

Its potency was immense, equivalent to nine Red Vein Fire Dragons merging into one, possessing Taiyi True Number level power.

Before long, Bai Xianyin and the White Turtle also returned one after another, entering the square.

In the distance, Baiqiu True Immortal and Bai Jiu could be seen looking over earnestly.

In their eyes, there was some reluctance but more joy for Bai Xianyin and the White Turtle.

Zhang Jian sensed the auspicious moment arriving and casually unleashed his power to summon the Celestial Realm Gate from the profound void.

Just then from above the firmament, a massive heavenly glow suddenly emerged, piercing through layers of auspicious clouds, and a grand nine-colored gate abruptly appeared from the firmament.

Nine-colored radiance illuminated the sky, filling the world with numerous auspicious clouds.

A majestic might of heaven and earth seemed to penetrate the Path of Heaven and Earth.

That force emerged, the Immortals around the Ascension Platform seemed to feel the deep firmament stir the Heaven and Earth Dao Rules, as if the Heavenly Dao developed a will. Despite not being the focus of that entity’s gaze, many observing Immortal Gods felt their hearts tremble.

Many members of noble families, and even ancient immortals from Immortal Sect Dao Lineages felt a terrifying pressure while standing among the crowd. Despite being among them, they hurriedly bowed to avoid disturbing their Dao Heart and leaving any shadow.

In the meantime, from the depths of the profound void, a calm and authoritative voice sounded:

"By order of the Celestial Emperor: Presently, disciple of Tongshan, Lower Realm Emperor Zhang Jian, master of the East Suspended Divine Continent’s Great Xia Holy Dynasty, cultivated for over three thousand six hundred years, bearing the Saint King Dao Fruit, merits fulfilled, Dao Skill illustrious, now permitted by the Central Celestial Realm to ascend. Due to his profound merits and leaving behind great fortune, he is specially allowed to bring one hundred and nine individuals of perfected Dao Practice and great blessings to ascend together! After entering the Celestial Court, additional conferment will occur."

The Immortal Sound lingered, the Heavenly Dao vividly manifest!

As the voice fluctuated, a Nine-Colored Talisman Decree formed from the void.

Upon its emergence, the numerous Primordial Spirit Masters below, even the immortals, felt their Primordial Spirit intensely trembling.

Their eyes involuntarily focused on the talisman decree, a gleam of intense longing flashing in their eyes.

In the expansive glow, it seemed as though the sky itself fractured with endless clouds as a nine-colored glimmer fell from the firmament, transforming into a radiant light enveloping Zhang Jian, with the decree instantly melding into Zhang Jian’s mind.

He knew this was the summoning talisman decree from the Celestial Realm.

At the same time, another magnificent Emperor Dao Divine Light emerged from the firmament, swiftly coalescing into a purple qi talisman decree appearing before Zhang Jian, collected by Zhang Jian.

Upon brief contact, Zhang Jian immediately understood this as the summoning talisman decree into the Three Emperors Celestial Realm.

He could choose to first enter the Central Celestial Realm or initially enter the Three Emperors Celestial Realm.

Of course, Zhang Jian planned to enter the Three Emperors Celestial Realm first, before proceeding to the Central Celestial Realm.

He had already made proper arrangements with various ancestors from the Celestial Realm!

At this time beneath the Ascension Platform, numerous civil and military officials from Great Xia had their eyes lightened with enthusiasm.

"One hundred and nine cultivators?"

They clearly heard moments ago, that the Immortal Envoy proclaiming the decree clarified, that this Great Xia Saint King can bring one hundred and nine individuals to ascend together to the Celestial Realm.

The many civil and military officials in the field hurriedly gazed towards the Ascension Platform in front.

Yet, before the Ascension Platform, though there were many immortals, there were certainly not one hundred and nine.

At least fifty to sixty slots were still missing to reach the number of one hundred and nine, a substantial gap.
