Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 479 The Ten Realms of the Demon Kingdom, Star Lord True Monarch

The King's Tower has nine levels, and the General Office of Internal Affairs is located there.

"Level 7 Root Bone".

"The Demon Kingdom hasn't produced such a prodigy for a very long time."

An old man leaned back in his seat, gazing at Jiang Jian, who was cultivating on the screen, his eyes slightly narrowed.

"Somebody come!"

He raised his hand, his voice full of authority.

aside.

Immediately, someone stepped forward: "Lord Cige!"

The old man said in a deep voice, "Go to the Grand Tutor's Mansion on my behalf, pay respects to the Mirror Master True Lord, and inquire whether, after meeting the Heavenly Emperor, this person with a level 7 root bone can be appointed to a position in the Internal Affairs Department."

He paused, then emphasized, "I guarantee, in the name of the Consulate General, that he will receive top-tier resource support!"

The man acknowledged the order and withdrew, saying, "Yes!"

The Consulate General for the Interior, not being a bureaucratic family, did not have the power to directly recruit voters.

However, the officials among them were all elites carefully selected from various government offices.

The Grand Tutor's Office has always valued quality over quantity when selecting voters.

Naturally, they were the primary targets of the Consulate General for Home Affairs.

Shortly after.

Someone reported: "Lord Cige, the gates of the Grand Tutor's mansion are closed, and the Mirror Master True Lord is not receiving guests at the moment."

The old man sighed, looking somewhat disappointed, but said nothing more.

He simply waved his hand, dismissing the others.

"The Mirror Master's insight is truly too sharp."

"As early as when he was in the capital of Mercury, he had already taken a liking to this person and sent an envoy to bring him into the Grand Tutor's mansion."

"I just don't know where the Mirror Master will assign him to a post."

The elderly man looked regretful, then turned to look at other screens to continue searching for his preferred voters.

This time, the Demon Kingdom is opening up admissions.

The number of officially recruited voters is in the tens of thousands.

among them.

There are countless people with exceptional talent.

Wait until the final allocation is completed.

Xuanshou Demon Kingdom, any government office.

They can all, to varying degrees, replenish with fresh blood.

At this time.

Waiting lobby.

Among many grids.

The internal ranking of bureaucratic families has reached a fever pitch.

The competition among them is extremely fierce.

As the rankings become fixed.

Above each grid, the voter's name will appear.

and.

Their names are preceded by a clear rank or number.

Click!

The grid barrier has disappeared!

Jiang Jian opened his eyes and looked around.

far away.

The final rankings for the Northern Textile Bureau have been released.

"Northern Textile Bureau, 7th place, Qihua."

In group chat.

Zhao Yang also shared his ranking.

"Zhang family, number 1, Zhao Yang."

Not surprisingly.

Zhao Yang, with his level 7 talent, took first place in the Zhang family competition.

Although among them.

This is partly because the Zhang family recruits fewer voters.

However, this still proves that Zhao Yang himself is quite capable.

at the same time.

Jiang saw his ranking appear above his head.

"Grand Tutor's Mansion, No. 1, Su."

In adjacent grids.

The ranking of the Zhenling Division also came into view.

"Zhenling Division, 1st place, Gao Qi."

"Zhenling Division, 2nd place, He Huixin."

After the rankings were released.

The man in blue crossed his arms and glanced at the girl not far away: "It seems that you are still slightly inferior."

The girl's face was cold, a barely perceptible hint of frustration flashing in her eyes. She snorted coldly and said nothing more.

"Su, where are you planning to take up your post?"

The man in blue, with a smile on his face, walked to the edge of the grid and raised his hand towards Jiang Jian.

Grand Tutor's Mansion, Zhenling Division.

Both were top-level government agencies, and both used a selection system.

Gao Qi felt a certain mutual respect for Jiang Jian.

"Aren't our official positions only determined after we have an audience with the emperor?"

Jiang Jian extended his wrist to exchange identity information with Gao Qi, raising an eyebrow slightly.

this time.

Gao Qi was somewhat surprised: "Didn't the people from the Grand Tutor's Mansion tell you?"

“The loyal voters of top government offices have certain rights, such as the right to refuse to be assigned a position and to choose the official position they want.”

"For someone like me, the best option is to stay in the Zhenling Division."

"But your Grand Tutor's Mansion has never had any real business. If you want to have a good career, you still need to go out and take up a post."

The other side of the grid.

Jiang Jian nodded slightly and said, "I see."

He had a guess.

Regarding his position.

The Grand Tutor's residence should have made arrangements long ago.

You don't need to worry about it too much.

"Given the high starting point of your Grand Tutor's Mansion, if you hadn't been appointed as a governor-general, you would most likely have taken a position in the Zhenling Division."

Gao Qi smiled and said, "By then, we might become colleagues."

Jiang Jian replied with a smile: "I hope so."

The Spirit Suppression Division is the most powerful and violent government agency in the Demon Kingdom.

Voters from prominent bureaucratic families were desperate to get in.

just.

After having an audience with the Emperor.

Only a small percentage of outstanding voters have the opportunity to be assigned to the Zhenling Division.

Suddenly.

A loud voice echoed throughout the spherical building!

"By order of the True Lord of the Nation!"

"Ten thousand twelve hundred official voters, proceed to the tenth level of the Royal Tower and, in the established order, pay homage to the Heavenly Emperor!"

boom!
A huge spherical building.

To the astonishment of many, it began to twist and deform!

Each grid becomes part of the deck, reassembled!
The spherical building itself is transformed into a colossal ship as large as a mountain.

He was accompanied by more than 10,000 official voters.

With a deafening roar, it soared into the sky!

Its speed is simply too fast.

The wind howled.

Many people lost their balance and nearly fell.

Divine Palace Realm cultivation.

In the fierce gale, he was just like an ordinary mortal.

just.

These official voters are all of superior character and talent.

I adjusted quickly.

The grid barrier has completely disappeared.

on the deck.

Tens of thousands of official voters are scattered throughout the country.

At a glance.

"So many prodigies!"

Jiang Jian glanced around casually, but couldn't help feeling a chill run down his spine!
What you see.

Most living beings possess extraordinary Xuan Qi ripples, indicating an extremely solid foundation.

Each of them is an elite of the Third Realm.

To become a formal voter.

There are no weaklings.

This was the first time Jiang Jian had ever seen so many prodigies.

Saturn, its landscape is too overgrown!
The Xuan Shou Demon Kingdom is a star-lord kingdom.

It faces half of Saturn, as well as other extraterrestrial regions.

With just one round of assessment and selection, tens of thousands of official voters were gathered!

This would be absolutely impossible on Earth!

Jiang Jian gazed at Tianjiao on the deck.

They estimated their own combat strength and compared it with those of these people.

"Facing these official voters."

"If I were to fight ten people, I should be able to do it."

"If you're facing twenty people at once, you have to use your trump card, or you're guaranteed to lose!"

After careful speculation.

Jiang Jian has gained a clearer understanding of his own abilities.

after all.

The people here are not pushovers.

Each of them has their own trump card and killer move; they are the elite of the elite.

If this were on Earth, those palace lords or other divine palace realm cultivators would be like this.

Even if he faced a hundred at the same time, Jiang Jian felt he would not be defeated.

The Divine Palace Realm is a vast leap.

Jiang Jian understood very well.

My self-cultivation time is still too short.

Even if some of the potential has been realized.

However, the accumulated spiritual energy still cannot compare to that of these long-established divine palaces.

In this situation.

He was able to single-handedly crush ten official voters.

That's already appalling enough.

If this gets out, no one will believe it.

At this time.

The giant ship pierced through the clouds and fog.

We are getting closer and closer to the tenth level of the King's Tower.

"The Daoist temple of Xuan Shou Zhenjun, one of the lords of Saturn."

Jiang Jian raised his head and looked up at the enormous, dark bird head in the sky, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Until now.

Only then did he truly see things clearly.

The body of this demon lord was actually that of a giant demon with a bird's head and a human body!

Hidden in the clouds, the topmost King Tower has ten layers.

It was a bird-faced head!
This head is just too big.

It blots out the sky, like a celestial palace in the clouds.

The giant ship looked like a sesame seed in front of it, insignificant.

Such a large corpse of a demon lord.

The Mysterious Lord actually managed to bring it back to Saturn from outside the solar system.

The difficulty of it is unimaginable.

Even an ordinary True Monarch of the Spirit Platform Realm would find it difficult to do this.

after all.

The Lingtai Realm is simply a leap in the level of life.

His cultivation level is limited, and there are many things he cannot do.

"King Lu You once said..."

"The ruler of the demon kingdom will meet the voters in his true form."

Jiang Jian gazed at the bird-faced head, his eyes filled with contemplation.

There are over ten thousand official voters.

The number of temporary voters exceeded 200,000.

Although the demon kingdom controls a vast territory.

These people are scattered among us and can't cause much of a stir.

However, if it were one person receiving hundreds of thousands of people, it would take a lot of time, which is simply impossible.

soon.

As the giant ship descended into the tenth level of the King's Tower.

The mesh on the deck lit up again.

These are the patterns of a teleportation star array.

"It is a clone of the original body."

Jiang Jian stood still, letting the teleportation light fall upon him, and a sudden realization dawned on him.

He had already guessed it.

The True Lord of Mysterious Head manifests his true form in countless forms to meet these chosen ones.

The clones here are not external manifestations.

Instead, it was separated from the original entity.

This method is extremely ingenious.

Just like a person, divided in two.

Each half can be called his original form.

Compared to ordinary clone techniques.

This kind of ontological segmentation is even more difficult.

"By order of the True Lord of the Nation!"

"The number one bureaucratic family, granted an audience with the Emperor!"

A resounding, booming sound echoed throughout the ten levels of the King's Tower!
at the same time.

More than two thousand lives were simultaneously enveloped in teleportation light and vanished from the giant ship. A few seconds later...

Jiang Jian opened his eyes and found himself in a huge palace.

This place is dark and empty, yet it possesses an extremely rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Above the grand hall stands a throne that is a hundred meters tall.

The base of the throne stone platform.

A handsome young man stood there.

looks.

The man was eight feet tall and wore a black robe with a black bird motif.

They are no different from ordinary mortals.

The only difference.

The eyes of the handsome man radiated a cold, lonely light.

It was as if all the divine inspiration of heaven and earth was swept up in it.

It makes one's heart tremble at the sight of it.

"Greetings, Your Majesty."

Jiang stopped his thoughts and greeted him respectfully.

The handsome man glanced at Jiang Jian, his tone calm and collected: "Human from Earth?"

The words fell.

Jiang Jianxin's mind sharpened, and his pupils contracted sharply.

He flipped his palm over and immediately took out the paper doll token, ready to activate it!
"Don't be nervous."

The man flicked his sleeve, and the world around him instantly froze. "My Xuan Shou Demon Kingdom is not the Bai Shuang Shang Kingdom. We have no prejudice against the beings of other planets."

Paper doll tokens have been completely banned.

Jiang lowered his gaze, put away the paper doll token, and remained silent.

At this moment.

The paper doll token is invalid.

The only trump card he can use is the dimensional space.

This is also the last resort to save one's life.

"No matter where you come from, you are now a voter of my Demon Kingdom."

The man observed Jiang Jian's actions closely. He chuckled and said calmly, "If you wish to stay and cultivate, go to the Grand Tutor's Mansion to pay your respects to the Mirror Master."

“You are his loyal voters, and he decides what official position you hold.”

The handsome man approached, his gaze deep and somber as he stared intently at Jiang Jian. "If you don't want to stay in the Demon Kingdom, then leave on your own."

The words fell.

He flicked his sleeves.

His form turned into light and vanished.

Jiang Jian stood there, gazing at the spot where the man had left, remaining silent for a long time.

He can sense it.

The cultivation level of True Lord Xuanshou has reached an unbelievable level.

on the earth.

He had met Lu Ye Zhenjun, and even Yujing Shangjun.

Even compared to the True Lord Xuan Shou, he is inferior in some ways.

after all.

Xuan Shou Zhenjun is one of the eight star lords of Saturn.

The Demon Kingdom has long been rumored.

This Star Lord True Lord's cultivation is close to reaching the Heavenly Realm.

That was a terrifying realm that ordinary living beings could not even imagine.

This level of life.

Things that matter.

Only through self-cultivation.

therefore.

The so-called differences between planets and races.

In their eyes, it couldn't even cause the slightest ripple.

After a long time.

Jiang Jian raised his head and bowed respectfully towards the void of the giant hall: "Thank you, True Lord."

Subsequently.

Jiang Jian turned around and stepped into the teleportation circle.

This time.

He met with the Star Lord True Lord.

For Jiang Jian.

My mental cultivation has seen a visible improvement.

Let Jiang see it too.

I rediscovered myself after being buried for so long.

The boundless thoughts that have almost disappeared.

All things in the world that have a spirit are living beings.

Most of the kingdoms and sects on Saturn.

Including the Xuan Shou Demon Kingdom.

From beginning to end, there was no intention to expand outwards.

Only the White Frost Kingdom, the Formless Kingdom, and the Heavenly Law Sword Pavilion.

These three star-lord forces are the enemies of the other planets.

There are only these three star lord forces.

It harbors extreme malice towards Earth and Mars.

soon.

Jiang Jian returned to the deck.

Around oneself.

Official voters from other prominent families began to appear one after another.

Jiang Jian glanced at it.

Almost everyone had some degree of joy on their face.

Obviously.

To pay homage to the true ruler of the country.

They benefited greatly.

Everyone gains something different.

"The Star Lord is too amazing. With just a few words of guidance, he enabled me to break through a supernatural ability that I had been stuck in for a long time!"

In the group chat, Qihua sent an emoji, her words brimming with excitement!
Even the usually composed Zhao Yang sent an excited emoji: "The True Lord of the Nation's few words are like clearing away the clouds to reveal the sun, resolving my confusion."

"If I could follow the True Lord of the Nation in cultivation, I even feel that I might have a chance to see the Divine Platform!"

Zhao Yang sent two messages in a row.

This is something that has never happened before in a group chat.

Jiang Jian stared at the identity certificate, remained silent for a moment, and then sent a message below: "The Xuan Shou Demon Kingdom is indeed different from the three major powers."

Qi Hua: "Su, are you talking about the White Frost Kingdom and the Heavenly Law Sword Pavilion?"

Jiang Jian: "Yes."

Qi Hua sent an angry emoji: "Have you forgotten? When we came here, we were deliberately made difficult by the Bai Shuang Shang Kingdom. I felt so aggrieved at the time."

"I've also heard that during the Star Lord's Heavenly Throne change a year from now, several Star Lord-level forces will unite to target the Xuan Shou Demon Kingdom!"

"If things don't go well."

"Perhaps even the Star Lord's position in the Demon Kingdom will be in jeopardy!"

Her tone carried a hint of worry.

"If the Demon Kingdom loses its position as the Star Lord."

"Our resource supply will immediately shrink by a hundredfold!"

below.

Zhao Yang said, "Don't worry too much. The Xuan Shou Demon Kingdom is the fourth star lord. Even if they want to fall out of the top eight, it won't be easy."

Qihua: "I hope so."

Turn off identity verification.

Jiang Jian stood on the deck.

Calm your mind and practice quietly.

Voters gradually returned over the next four weeks.

The audience lasted until all of the more than 10,000 official voters had been received.

The giant ship finally took off again and landed on the ninth floor of the King's Tower.

After the audience with the emperor.

The Office of the Directorate General of the Interior was responsible for assigning official positions to these voters.

Except for a few special cases.

Most official voters, as well as temporary voters.

They all need to follow the assignment and go directly to take up their posts.

In group chat.

The message notification sounded again.

Qihua: "Have you heard anything about your official appointments?"

"Lord Wang said that it's a done deal that I'll stay at the Northern Textile Bureau."

Zhao Yang: "The Zhang family told me that, based on my current performance, I have two options."

"One is to go to the Zhenling Division and take up an ordinary official position."

"With the Zhang family supporting them, even if they don't start from a high position, their promotion speed won't be too slow."

"The other one is to be sent out to serve as a deputy governor-level official."

below.

Qi Hua sent an envious emoji: "You actually have the qualifications to enter the Spirit Suppression Division. No wonder you have a level 7 talent."

Zhao Yang: "Actually, I prefer to let go out and share resources, so that I can control more resources and it will be more helpful to my own cultivation."

Qihua: "Then think it over carefully."

"Su, how are you?"

"Any news from the Grand Tutor's residence?"

Jiang saw his finger swipe and sent a message: "No, we should see the Grand Tutor before we can make a decision."

While talking.

The giant ship descended rapidly, having returned to the ninth level of the King's Tower.

on the deck.

Many official voters disembarked from the giant ship under the guidance of staff.

They went to the consulate general one after another to await the assignment of official positions.

soon.

Tens of thousands of voters.

Only a few dozen people remained.

These people come from royal families and top government agencies.

They do not need to accept assignments from the Consulate General.

Instead, they followed the decisions of their respective factions and were assigned official positions elsewhere.

"white."

Gao Qi, accompanied by a young boy, walked up to Jiang Jian.

"This is Qingye from a royal family."

He pointed to the person beside him and led him to Jiang Jian, "This is Su from the Grand Tutor's Mansion."

Aoba extended her hand, her smile gentle: "Hello."

Jiang smiled back and gently shook hands: "Hello."

They exchanged identity information.

Qingye waved his hand and said goodbye to the two of them: "I'm going back first. My official position hasn't been decided yet. I need to think about it carefully."

Gao Qi replied, "Okay."

As the boy left.

Gao Qi clicked his tongue and said, "The younger generation of royal families are basically assigned to a governorship, which is the most lucrative position."

The royal family is the family of the true ruler of the country.

It was also the most powerful among the many bureaucratic families.

The Xuan Shou Demon Kingdom rules over ten realms.

Each realm has dozens or even hundreds of paths.

Half of them.

They were all people supported by top-tier aristocratic families, serving as governors of a region.

"I'm going back to the Zhenling Division."

Gao Qi looked relaxed. "As a loyal voter, I can get a Spirit Suppressor envoy position. If I send someone out, I'll make a lot of money."

He blinked and lowered his voice, "If you could be sent out to serve in the same official position as me, that would be great."

Jiang Jian chuckled: "I hope so."

Saying goodbye to high aspirations.

Jiang Jian boarded a self-driving aircraft.

After verifying their identities, they flew towards the seventh level of the King's Tower.

The King's Pagoda has seven layers.

It was the location of the Grand Tutor's Mansion, a top-level government office of the imperial court.

The Grand Tutor's Mansion has always been shrouded in mystery.

The officials were mostly from other prominent families, holding sinecure positions with no real work to do.

The loyal voters of the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

They would all go out to take up their posts and rarely stay in the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

As the aircraft descended.

The imposing sight of the seven-tiered King's Tower once again came into view.

The mansion itself is as vast as a mountain.

At first glance.

It's like a "suspended mountain palace".

Each of the jet-black boulders emitted a ghostly glow.

Ancient demonic script is inscribed on it, and brilliant golden lines flow like water.

Mysterious phantoms appeared amidst the black stone patterns.

Hidden within are the shifting mountains and rivers, and the changing of the four seasons.

The majestic gate of the mansion stands a thousand feet high.

The flying vehicle that Jiang Jian was riding landed below the mansion gate.

Like a speck of dust, extremely small.

On both sides of the mansion gate.

A bronze animal head with its eyes wide open in anger.

At this moment, it appears even more majestic and terrifying.

"Lu Wang, he hasn't arrived yet."

Jiang Jianqing flipped his palm and took out the Grand Tutor's Mansion token.

It was not urged to proceed immediately.

this time.

The Grand Tutor's Mansion admitted two people.

Except myself.

There was also a temporary voter, Lü Wang.
