Cultivating Immortals in Two Worlds: From Qing Fu to Primordial Chaos

Chapter 279: Opening the Gate of Heaven and Leading the Rainbow Bridge

Yang Huai also saw a strange phenomenon above his head. A gate of heaven appeared above his head and auspicious clouds and auspicious air emerged. It was indeed like the rumored phenomenon that the gate of heaven opened and an immortal decree descended.

I just don't know which Heavenly Emperor's palace this decree came from.

As far as Yang Huai knows, there is more than one kind of immortal decree in heaven. In addition to the decree of the Central Saint Emperor, there are also the decrees of the Five Heavenly Emperors and the Ten Saints.

The source of each Dharma is different.

And the gold content is also different.

The type of decree one receives usually represents which faction one belongs to, but this is of course not absolute.

For example, the Ten Direction Saints represent the Ten Saints of the Purple Mansion Heaven. They represent a sect, but they also have the authority to enthrone immortals and gods, and their status is no less than that of the Six Imperial Heavenly Emperors.

The Taoists below couldn't help but make a noise, and all of them cast their eyes up to the sky with shocked expressions on their faces.

After Dao Ningzi quickly set up the altar, the gate of heaven above his head finally opened completely. From the depths of the gate of heaven, a thousand feet of strange colors seemed to emerge, almost forming a rainbow bridge.

I saw an infinite and vast divine power flowing out from within.

At the same time, the vast sound of heaven floated down to the ground of the square, and Yang Huai, who was in the lead, heard:

"I have heard that there is a man of moral integrity in Qingfu whose virtues are known across the sky and whose Taoism benefits all things. His name is Taibaizi. He has practiced Taoism for 309 years and inherited the Taoism of the Purple Palace Pure Yuan Emperor. Now his Taoism is complete and he has accumulated 3 million good deeds. Therefore, he is allowed to ascend to the Heavenly Palace and fly to heaven. I have specially granted him the Central Yuanzu Immortal Order. After he ascends to heaven, he can go to the Central Yuanzu Immortal Palace to report and serve. I decree this!"

I saw a faint heavenly sound falling from the sky. Only Yang Huai could hear this heavenly sound. Other Taoists could not hear it clearly, but they did not dare to blaspheme the Heavenly Face. They all paid homage to the Emperor of the Upper Realm by paying homage to him.

The next moment, a colorful stream of light fell towards Yang Huai. Yang Huai's face became serious and he bowed according to ancient etiquette.

"Your servant Yang Huai receives the Central Yuanzu's imperial edict!"

The talisman fell into his hands, and he saw that it was a page of purple-green talismans. He could sense it as it fell into his hands.

He could see some of his information appearing on the talisman.

Yang Huai, the Taibai Star Lord, has practiced for 309 years and has accumulated merits of 3 million. He was granted the title of the third-rank immortal official, the Taibai Taoist Lord of the West, in charge of the military affairs of the West, and was granted a Taibai Taoist Lord mansion, three gourds of golden elixirs, ten pieces of heavenly brocade, twenty jars of imperial wine, three thousand heavenly soldiers, and was allowed to open a mansion and form a six-member immortal class... But Yang Huai could sense that this imperial title was not fixed, and would be affected by the changes in his Taoist practice and merits.

In addition, this talisman is not only a certificate of immortal command given to him by the Central Yuanzu Immortal Palace, but also possesses tremendous power to subdue demons.

He put it into his sleeve.

After giving thanks, the vast gate in the sky slowly dissipated.

However, the many Taoists who witnessed this scene couldn't help but become excited.

This was a very formal reception at the Rainbow Bridge of Kaitianmen. Although Yang Huai did not choose to ascend immediately, it was still a great honor. It was completely different from the ascension of other immortals.

After other Yang Shen celestial beings succeeded in their cultivation, most of them would ascend to heaven alone in a deserted place to avoid having their Yang Shen captured by others during the ascension.

It would be better to have a celestial being in the sect, as there would be the sect’s guardian and you wouldn’t have to be so cautious.

But even the few living Golden Immortals present who were qualified to ascend did not have such courtesy of opening the gate to heaven, let alone being granted an imperial decree in advance.

Beside him, Dao Ningzi immediately stepped forward and said.

"Congratulations to the Emperor for receiving the Immortal Command from the Purple Mansion Upper Realm in advance. After the Emperor ascends to heaven, he will surely become a high-grade Immortal Lord!"

Yang Huai's eyes fell on this old man Deng in surprise.

Seeing this, many disciples of Chunyuan Sect saluted him!

Afterwards, the Nine Heavens Righteous Path, the Purple Sky Righteous Path, and all the scattered people came forward to pay their respects.

The Taoists were touched in their hearts.

With the Taoist accomplishments of this True Lord Taibai, there is indeed a great possibility that he will receive a high-grade immortal command.

Similar to the several emperors who ascended to heaven in Qingfu Shenzhou throughout the ages.

According to the immortal records written by the Jiu Tian Zheng Dao League, the three ancestors of Jiu Tian Zheng Dao received the highest grade immortal edict when they ascended to heaven.

The best-grade immortal edicts can be given to the gods of various departments of the immortal class, or to the Immortal Lord Xiaoyao, or even to the great emperors, who have the authority to establish their own governments and set up their own territories.

The only super-quality ones are the Six Heavenly Emperors and the Ten Direction Saints.

Even among the six celestial emperors, the Queen of the Central Saint Emperor, the Holy Mother of Spiritual Elephant and Treasure Light, is not of super quality, but only of top quality.

Of course, as they are all of the highest quality, it still depends on one’s own cultivation and foundation.

The Taoists were guessing in their hearts, but they couldn't hide the envy in their eyes.

Several Golden Immortals from the Nine Heavens Orthodox Sects couldn't help but feel waves of Taoism in their hearts, and everyone had their own worries.

However, the two living Golden Immortals, Dao Ningzi of the Chunyuan Sect and Ji Mingxue, had smiles on their faces throughout the whole process.

Taoist Guangrong next to him was surrounded by many veteran Taoists from the Nine Heavens Righteous Way and the Purple Sky Righteous Way, who were congratulating him non-stop.

After finishing the sermon, Yang Huai returned to the depths of the Immortal Palace. He did not return directly to Taibai Peak, because he knew that Taoist Guangrong, Daoningzi and others would surely come to ask questions.

Sure enough, after sending away many guests, Dao Ningzi led a group of elders into the Immortal Palace. Seeing Yang Huai drinking tea in the main hall, Dao Ningzi walked forward excitedly, but after thinking about it, he coughed dryly and glanced at Taoist Guangrong. Taoist Guangrong saw that many senior sisters and brothers seemed to become a little "shy", and he suddenly laughed. He looked at Yang Huai and asked.

"Disciple, tell me quickly, which immortal palace did you receive the edict from?"

Yang Huai smiled and said directly without hiding anything.

"Master, please take a seat first!"

He spoke only after seeing everyone seated.

"It should be the will of the Central Ancestor Saint Emperor that has descended. His Majesty the Saint Emperor asked me to go to the Central Ancestor Immortal Palace to serve after I ascend. However, his majesty only gave me a third-rank immortal official position, and I don't know what my main immortal position is..." Yang Huai shook his head slightly.

Taoist Guangrong was stunned, but was overjoyed and smiled.

"Disciple, this is a good thing. Being able to enter the Central Yuanzu Immortal Palace is a great thing!"

Hearing this, Yang Huai's heart moved and he couldn't help but ask.

"Master, is there any explanation for this?"

Hearing this, Taoist Guangrong nodded.

"It seems that you haven't studied the sect's theology carefully. However, any immortal who can directly enter the Central Yuanzu Immortal Palace must be at least a middle third-grade immortal, or even a fourth-grade immortal among the middle thirds. Because they are directly under the Central Yuanzu Immortal Palace, they can only be mobilized by the Central Yuanzu Saint Emperor's edicts, and do not need to obey the edicts of the other five heavenly emperors. This saves a lot of mundane things..."

Hearing this, Yang Huai understood.

As an official, there is a natural difference between having one boss and having countless bosses. If anyone can transfer you away at will, ask you to work overtime, or send you out, that would be painful.

And if one only obeys the orders of the Central Yuanzu Immortal Palace, then one would naturally be much more noble.

Dao Ningzi also said at this time.

"This privilege is indeed not available in other Heavenly Emperor Palaces. On the contrary, the immortals in the Central Yuanzu Immortal Palace have the right to allocate low-level immortals and gods from the other five emperor palaces for external use!"

He had a smiling face.

If Yang Huai became a senior immortal official of the Central Yuanzu Immortal Palace, it would naturally benefit these elders. If Yang Huai's immortal official rank was high enough, not to mention mobilizing these elders who had ascended, at least he could intimidate some people with his influence, and at least they would not suffer unnecessary suffering.

Sometimes those little ghosts are more difficult to deal with than high-level immortals and gods. Having a backer can save you a lot of trouble and at least you can be treated fairly.

In fact, what those of them who were born in orthodox Taoist schools fear most is not ascending to the Five Directions Emperor's Palace. Being sent to the Five Directions Emperor's Palace is already a good job. What they fear most is being sent to the palaces of the Heavenly Lords in various places, or to the front-line areas in the battle against demons.

That is more dangerous.

Because he had just ascended to the heavens not long ago, his cultivation was not stable yet. Even with the greatest talent, it would take some time to grow.

However, the immortals like them from the Nine Heavens Righteous Path are much better than the immortals who come from wild backgrounds.

Because there is the glory of the ancestors above, they will not be assigned to those dangerous places as soon as they ascend.

Taoist Guangrong originally wanted to ask about the specific immortal edict, but then he thought that this was his disciple's private matter after all, and he shouldn't interfere too much.

Yang Huai guessed Taoist Guangrong's thoughts at a glance, but he didn't care. He also wanted to know the value of his immortal command.

“In addition, the Holy Emperor said that I have accumulated three million merits, and promoted me to the Heavenly Western Taibai Daoist Lord. He also allowed me to open a palace, form a six-member immortal class, and lead three thousand heavenly soldiers and generals. This achievement does not seem to be of high level, and is not comparable to the three ancestors of my Nine Heavens Righteous Dao!”

This is Yang Huai’s actual idea. He only leads three thousand heavenly soldiers and generals. This is no better than his former pseudonym, the Commander of Tianhe!
When he was the commander of Tianhe, at his peak he probably led tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals, all of whom were capable and good at fighting.

Hearing this, Dao Ningzi and others were suddenly speechless.

Yang Huai saw that several people looked at him strangely and couldn't help but ask.

"Could it be that there is something wrong with what I said?"

In his opinion, he, Taibai Daojun, is indeed not as good as the emperor with a title.

After thinking about it, Dao Ningzi said.

“Although the three ancestors were called emperors when they ascended, it was actually just an empty title, similar to when our ancestor Emperor Chunyuan ascended, he was also named Chunyuan Tianjun, and then sent out to fight for a thousand years before gaining a foothold in the Purple Mansion Heaven Realm. Now he has been named the residence of the God of the Spirit Mansion, and is one of the twenty-eight auxiliary emperors under the command of God!”

"So that's it..."

Yang Huai nodded. It seemed that he still underestimated the value of himself as Taibai Daojun.

One is the status of the Heavenly Lord under the local warlord system, and the other is the system of the Taoist Lord directly under the Central Yuanzu Immortal Palace. The value of these two is completely different.

He had another thought in his mind at this moment.

I just don't know whether Taibai Daojun can allow the marriage given his status?

Dao Ningzi asked.

"So, nephew, do you have any idea of ​​ascending to heaven next?"

Yang Huai simply shook his head.

"Not yet!"

Although the official position given by the Central Yuanzu Emperor is very high and noble, it is not as free and easy as in the human world.

Being in the human world does not affect spiritual practice.

Besides, the Holy Emperor didn't let him ascend to heaven immediately after receiving the imperial edict.

Dao Ningzi just thought that Yang Huai had greater ambitions and wanted to continue to accumulate merits in the human world. With Yang Huai's current Taoist practice, it was indeed much easier to accumulate merits.

For example, directly sweeping across the magic path of Qingfu Shenzhou, and then finding out those ancient demons and killing them.

Those are merits that are within your reach.

This will naturally be of greater benefit to the Chunyuan Sect and even the Nine Heavens Righteous Dao.

A living ancestor, the emperor is on earth, and he can do whatever he wants with great determination.
