Chapter 1 The Start

Wanli Twenty-fifth Year, Sixth Month, Twenty-second Day, Four Watches.

Throughout Shuntian Prefecture, torches were lit everywhere, collecting corpses.

Ji Xiang saw Old Zhang outside the Forbidden City gate.

The shattered statue of the Jade Emperor was placed to one side.

"My yang spirit incarnations have already been recovered, Senior Brother, the two of us can make a trip to the heavens."

As he spoke, Old Zhang supported the statue of the Jade Emperor, explaining to Ji Xiang, "This is the statue of the Jade Emperor from the Supreme Pavilion back then. It's different from ordinary statues. This statue seems to be directly connected to the Jade Emperor's divine position."

Ji Xiang's gaze moved to the face of the Jade Emperor statue, kind-looking and amiable.

"Since that's the case, let's begin."

Two divine senses, in the darkness, connected to the heavens, wanting to reach the Great Floating Li Earth. The usual operation is to follow the process of receiving the position.

Trying to receive the position in the heavens, the divine sense can reach the Great Floating Li Earth.

But this is not the real physical body entering, only an incarnation of a thought enters Floating Li. So Ji Xiang also knows that this trip will not bring him the cultivation of the Ascension Realm.

After all, he is not a true Ascension Realm master.

The main force of this probing mission is Old Zhang.

Aura surrounded them, and soon the azure sky appeared before their eyes. The two divine senses of Old Zhang and Ji Xiang ascended to the Great Floating Li, transforming into ethereal forms. After opening the Gate of Heaven, what they saw was the divine tablet of the Jade Emperor!

Boom! Upon seeing Ji Xiang, the Jade Emperor also immediately reacted, the divine tablet facing Ji Xiang, locking onto his position.

Old Zhang had never seen this scene before. His floating ethereal form stepped forward, trying to receive the Jade Emperor's divine position in order to learn about its condition.

But the next moment, a huge wave of expulsion will, was transmitted from the Jade Emperor's divine position!

Within the Jade Emperor's divine position, three beams of light appeared, seemingly split from the divine position, or new deities born from human will.

These three beams of light carried intense hostility, not allowing Ascension Realm masters to pry into the Supreme Jade Emperor!

Old Zhang narrowed his eyes, feeling he was losing face.

He had boasted so much in front of Ji Xiang, but now that he came to heaven, he was actually blocked by the three rays of light before the Jade Emperor. Bearing the title of the best under heaven, he couldn't lose face here.

"I'll see what you three things are."

Old Zhang operated his divine sense. He was a true Ascension Realm master, and his divine sense could create immense power. After all, the true Ascension Realm master, one person's will is equivalent to the will of the people, and he can transform into a "god" himself. Ji Xiang, as a fake Ascension Realm master, cannot do this.

Therefore, Old Zhang, with his thoughts, can do whatever he wants in Floating Li!

Old Zhang's divine sense appearance gradually changed. His beard became very long, his eyes bulged out, appearing somewhat fierce, his hair was tied behind his head, and his clothing also changed from extremely gorgeous colors to simple and unadorned sketches.

Ji Xiang's divine sense entered Floating Li, and the Inner Vision Divine Tablet can still reflect the situation seen by this thought!

[Grand Celestial Master (Light Red Cloud): The Righteous God of the Nation! The first Celestial Master Zhang Daoling! All the Holy Ones of the Heavens, the Four Great Celestial Masters! The sixth rank of the Heavenly Department Great Office!]

[Within the office of the Celestial Master Zhang, resides the will of the Celestial Masters of the Dragon Tiger Mountain through the ages. The incense of the divine position has been offered for thousands of years without extinguishing!]

The office of the Celestial Master Zhang is red, surrounded by a faint, thin red cloud!

Ji Xiang suddenly thought of the similar description given by Elder Lei Xuan before, saying that the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill gathers the will of the people, and when it reaches the ninth turn, it turns into red clouds, which is the highest achievement in Taoist cultivation!

The office of Celestial Master Zhang, although it is the sixth rank, is surrounded by a thin red cloud! Obviously, it coincides with Elder Lei Xuan's description of the human-shaped elixir!

The office will bring powerful power to the holder. The manifestation of Celestial Master Zhang's office is equivalent to all the Celestial Masters of Dragon Tiger Mountain launching an attack on the three rays of light in front of the Jade Emperor!

Among these Celestial Masters, there are many Ascension Realm masters!

Sure enough, under Old Zhang's powerful pressure, three lines of text gradually appeared in the three rays of light.

[Lai He Heavenly Lord], [Heavenly Net King], [Guang Yao Longevity Holy Constitution Heavenly Lord]

These three lights seem to be divine tablets that have not yet taken shape, and are somewhat different from other divine tablets. The surrounding Floating Li divine tablets have gathered around them at some point.

Ji Xiang saw Emperor Liang Li. The scene before him was somewhat astonishing.

Many Heavenly Emperors, Heavenly Gods, and Commanders of Ten Thousand Gods have come here, surrounding the Jade Emperor's divine position and the three luminous divine positions.

"This is....."

"Nurturing."

Old Zhang saw the problem here: "The Jade Emperor's divine tablet has long had problems, just like that empty statue. The divine power in the Jade Emperor's divine tablet has also been divided into three."

"This is truly unbelievable. The gods born of the world's wills represent the thoughts of countless people throughout history. These three divine positions are unheard of and unseen. There is no incense offering them in the world. How could they be born from the Jade Emperor's divine tablet!"

The divine position of the Jade Emperor first appeared in the Five Dynasties period, and was later supported in the Song Dynasty. However, the Jade Emperor's belief among the people has always been very high, and the incense is also very strong.

Compared with some other ancient Heavenly Emperors, the folk tales of some Heavenly Emperors have always had a prosperous incense.

For example, the Jade Emperor and Heavenly Elder.

These two gods were originally folk tales. Among them, Heavenly Elder's status continued to decline with the demise of the Tang Dynasty, so that later generations no longer mentioned him, while the Jade Emperor's status continued to rise with the rise of the Song Dynasty, and finally even became one with Haotian in name.

Ji Xiang was truly amazed.

This time, it's really the Jade Emperor taking turns, today it's my turn!

"Junior Brother, can you destroy these three strange divine positions?"

"I'll try my best!"

Old Zhang indicated that he would take care of them.

The divine sense was running, and the will of the Celestial Masters of Dragon Tiger Mountain through the ages, with the help of the divine position of the Ancestral Celestial Master Zhang Daoling, crushed towards these three strange divine positions!

Those three divine positions were attacked, and naturally they also released great light. At this time, countless divine tablets around Floating Li vibrated slightly, separating incense and qi, seemingly helping Old Zhang to suppress them.

For the divine tablets, these three divine positions are extremely vile cuckoo nests, even more unwelcome than Ji Xiang, this extraterrestrial demon!

Old Zhang immediately became spirited.

I guard the human world as a Celestial Master, up to the blue sky and down to the yellow springs! All the heavenly saints are on my side, how can you fight me!

But at this time, a powerful and strange will suddenly appeared in the distance of Floating Li.

That will came here, its ethereal form emitting a shocking sound, temporarily dissolving Old Zhang's power, and at the same time taking action, receiving the Jade Emperor's divine position!

Old Zhang was shocked. The Jade Emperor's office was taken away before his eyes. Those who can enter Floating Li with their divine sense to cause trouble are undoubtedly Ascension Realm masters, but where did the third Ascension Realm master come from in the human world?

Old Zhang certainly wouldn't give up, the Celestial Master's will suppressed towards the distance, while carrying a warning:

"Fellow Daoist, the Jade Emperor's divine position cannot be received, there is something strange in it, quickly give up receiving it!"

And the will in the distance gently brushed away the Celestial Master's power, dissolving it into nothingness, and at the same time gave a response:

"Little Celestial Master, what I want is this shell. If there was no problem, I wouldn't come to receive it!"

"Helping those Song Dynasty emperors nurture the divine tablet for so long, now that you have separated the divine light, I have also fulfilled my promise, it's time to take back this Jade Emperor's divine position!"

In Floating Li, a phantom of grand thunder and lightning appeared, which was clearly the method of the Divine Firmament!

That will received the Jade Emperor's office and left, just when it was happy, suddenly a hand stretched out from the side and grabbed the Jade Emperor's divine position.

Ji Xiang suddenly took action. Although he did not have the cultivation of the Ascension Realm, he could still touch the Jade Emperor's divine position, and was not rejected.

After all, the friendship of picking up trash for more than a hundred years is still there.

The will in the distance was somewhat surprised that it could not receive the Jade Emperor's office, and Ji Xiang pulled the Jade Emperor's office, his divine sense gazing at the distance. In the Inner Vision Divine Tablet, an amazing description was given.

[Lin Lingsu: Divine Firmament Grandmaster, Yuan Miao Great Saint!]

[Cultivation: Peak of the Ascension Realm!]
