Pfft-
A sound like farting rang out.
A Taoist wearing a Daoist robe, holding an Immortal Official’s Jade Seal in his left hand and a whisk in his right hand, shot out from the dark hollow entrance.
“Hiss… so fast!”
Xuanqing steadied his body, feeling amazed in his heart.
No wonder he is such a big shot. Even when sending people, he’s so incredibly fast. Xuanqing thought he would be riding on a lucky cloud, carrying him at a faster speed.
Poor and weak imagination, it turns out that an emperor’s life does not involve farming with a golden hoe.
With such commotion.
It attracted the attention of everyone in Black Wind Town.
Everyone thought it was Shimen attacking, so they hurriedly gathered and then found out that it was their Sir who had returned.
“Sir!”
“Sir!”
The four little gods, two demons, and Qingwan all gathered around. As for the City God, he didn’t come because such fluctuations could not be transmitted to the Netherworld.
Suddenly.
When the Black Bear Essence and Gentleman Bai She, the two demons, approached Sir, they discovered that their Sir was different now.
“Eh… Sir, have you shed your mortal body and achieved an immortal body?” Black Bear Essence couldn’t help but ask.
The White Snake Gentleman on the side also showed surprised.
The four little gods were even more overjoyed, never thought that their Sir would shed his mortal body and achieve an immortal body so quickly. No wonder they can’t see through him.
“Yes, I have condensed an immortal body and achieved the status of a heavenly immortal!” Xuanqing nodded.
“Congratulations… huh?”
“Heavenly Immortal?”
“Sir has achieved the status of a heavenly immortal?”
Except for Qingwan, who had little cultivation experience, everyone else found it unbelievable and was shocked beyond belief.
“Sir… you mean you have stepped onto the Road to Celestials?” Gentleman White Snake asked with trembling lips.
As a footless scattered monster.
Even if he had tried his best, shedding his mortal body would not have been more than transforming himself and walking the path of Earth Immortals. Although he had mastered hundreds of spells, he would never have access to divine powers in this lifetime.
What’s more important is the slow cultivation of Earth Immortals, which is indescribable.
Despite mastering alchemy, working hard, and consuming countless elixirs, the final result is that he still could not catch up with his boss, Black Bear Essence. Playing casually, sleeping when tired, getting bored and fetching honeycombs, his cultivation rocketed up.
It was all because Black Bear Essence had a trace of extraordinary heritage, possessed a trace of Tsunami Bear blood, and was not just an ordinary body since birth; he walked the path of ‘Earth Immortal Way.’
It’s hard to imagine that their Sir… said that he had achieved the status of a heavenly immortal just now?
“Yes!”
“With the help of an elder, I was fortunate enough to step onto the Road to Celestials.” Xuanqing said lightly.
Without the help of Great Immortal Zhenyuan, even if he had the Body of Merits and Ginseng Fruit, the distance to becoming a heavenly immortal would still be a little short.
This moment.
Everyone received a definite answer from their Sir’s mouth.
One by one, they widened their eyes, and then, as if they had won a Ginseng fruit prize, they jumped on the spot, completely disregarding their identity as Immortals.
“Congratulations Sir, and best wishes to Sir!”
“Congratulations, Sir, on attaining the status of Heavenly Immortal.”
“Sir has stepped onto the Road to Celestials, in the future he will surely become a powerful figure in the Three Realms.”
Everyone was extremely excited.
As the saying goes, when one person attains the Dao, even the chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. If their Sir could become a powerful figure in the Three Realms in the future, could their future be bad as subordinates?
In their hearts, they were all muttering thoughts like… they chose the right person… they were going to make a fortune in this life… their Sir was so awesome…
Seeing this scene.
Xuanqing’s eyes looked into the distance, as if he could see the chaotic void beyond the primordial world.
“The Great Dao is clear and massive, even if I become a powerful figure in the Three Realms, what about it? As a person… one’s vision must be far-sighted!”
To be honest.
Ever since he refined the Body of Merits in the Eight Trigram Furnace, his goal in his heart has long been more than just a simple pursuit of longevity.
“Alright, I have gained something this time and need to undergo closed-door cultivation for a while. You all continue to guard Black Wind Town.”
Xuanqing waved and said.
There were so many ginseng fruits in his backpack, he might as well eat them and convert them into his cultivation. It’s not like he was planning to save them for offspring.
Before, he was rushing to deal with the disaster in Black Wind Town, then went to Wuzhuang Temple for the ginseng fruits, and later waited for Great Immortal Zhenyuan to preach. This series of events prevented him from logging out of the game.
He had to know that in the real world, a lot of matters were waiting for him to deal with.
However.
Everyone looked surprised upon hearing Sir’s words.
Black Bear Essence, being simple and honest, directly asked, “Sir, having achieved the Way of Celestial Immortals, aren’t you going to hold an Ascension Banquet?”
Ascension Banquet?
Xuanqing was momentarily startled, before recalling a particular feature of this world.
Apart from cultivating to become immortal in this world, there was another conspicuous characteristic: people loved to hold ‘banquets.’
There were grand events such as the Flat Peach Banquet, which took place every 500 years in the Heavenly Court, and the yearly celebration of the Queen Mother’s Birthday, which occurred once every 365 years in the Mortal World.
Moreover, whenever someone got married, had a promotion, broke through in their cultivation, or experienced significant life events, they would always hold a grand banquet.
Not to mention anything else.
If Xuanqing were a native of this world, he probably would have hosted countless banquets by now – for his promotion in the Immortal Official’s Jade Seal, for the promotions of his subordinates, for obtaining treasures, for breaking through in his cultivation… There were simply too many reasons.
The highest-ranked figures all enjoyed hosting banquets.
As a result, cultivators in the Three Realms followed suit, as it was in their nature to worship the powerful.
Of course, that’s another story.
“Ascension Banquet… Let’s host one, but we’ll hold it half a year later. You guys can handle the arrangements.”
Xuanqing gave it a thought and decided to go with the local customs.
After all, everyone else was hosting banquets, so if he didn’t do the same, wouldn’t he stand out awkwardly?
Hosting the banquet six months later meant that he would have 18 days in the real world to handle all the other matters.
“You may all disperse now!”
Xuanqing flicked the whisk in his hands and ordered everyone.
“Yes, Sir, we are taking our leave.”
“Yes, Sir, we are taking our leave.”
Everyone bowed in unison before leaving.
Back in the Divine Realm.
Xuanqing sat cross-legged on the ground.
With a single thought, he said,
“Open the character panel!”
[Name]: Xuanqing
[Physique]: Body of Merits
[Grade]: Taiji Right Palace Supervisor Immortal Official, Shangqing Department of Luoshu Signing Books, Thunder Clap Capital Affairs (Secondary Seventh-Rank)
[Cultivation]: Integration of Void Stage (Early Stage)
[Cultivation Method]: Food-Qi Decree
[Divine Ability]: Cloud Stepping Travel (Perfection), Five Elements Talisman Array (Perfection)
[Ingot]: 5869
At this moment.
The information on the character panel had changed.
After listening to Great Immortal Zhenyuan’s lecture, the Five Elements Talisman Array had gone from a Great Achievement to a Perfect state.
For the [Cultivation] column, it had changed from Refining Spirit to Emptiness to Integration of Void Stage.
It’s worth mentioning that,
Shedding the mortal body to achieve the Immortal Body and embarking on the Road to the Celestial Immortals primarily refers to the ‘type,’ not the cultivation realm.
It can also be understood that after becoming immortal, the cultivation process involves comprehending the Great Dao.. Thus, the true name of this realm is the Integration of Void Stage!
