Evergreen Immortal.

Chapter 755 Half a Dao Lord
"Zhu Qingshan, who can suppress even a mountain of green?!"

Upon hearing this name...

Li Rui was slightly surprised.

No wonder he thought so; after all, this old Master Zhu was so famous that he had heard of him long ago.

Let me just mention one thing.

The tenth book in the Heavenly Register is named Zhu Qingshan.

Jiang Linxian smiled and nodded: "Exactly."

"This Master Zhu is actually the reincarnation of the Green Mountain Daoist from eight hundred years ago, and is now equivalent to half a Daoist."

Half a Dao Lord!

Li Rui raised an eyebrow.

This evaluation is quite extraordinary.

A True Lord is a True Lord, and a Dao Lord is a Dao Lord; the distinction is clear. A Dao Lord is a fruit that has ripened and fallen from the tree; he is the representative of the Great Dao in the human world. In comparison, a True Lord is fundamentally different.

Jiang Linxian said he was half a Daoist master.

This means that Master Zhu may have already mastered some of the abilities of a Dao Lord.

Jiang Linxian: "Master Zhu has no hope of attaining the Dao Lord status in this life, but he still has a solid foundation and is quite prestigious in the Divine Void Immortal Dynasty."

He was more than just highly respected.

The Shenxu Immortal Dynasty was able to rise to become the leading immortal dynasty in the world not only because of the legacy left by the Azure Emperor, but also, and extremely importantly, because of the Shenlu Academy.

we can even say.

The Divine Void Immortal Dynasty has always been jointly governed by the imperial court and the academy.

More than half of the third-rank officials in the court came from Shenlu Academy, not to mention the scholars all over the Shenxu Immortal Dynasty.

Master Zhu held an extremely high position at Shenlu Academy.

He is even the tutor of the current Minister of Personnel of the Divine Void Immortal Dynasty.

Getting a scholar position at the Hongwen Pavilion is really not a difficult thing.

Even though he was just an outsider.

Jiang Linxian said, “Brother Li, you can focus on your cultivation here from now on. You can go back after you become a True Lord. Master Zhu was once acquainted with Ancestor Zhuge. If you have any questions in the future, you can ask him for help.”

Li Rui asked, "Brother Jiang, are you leaving again?"

"The Ascension Platform is about to open; I should definitely give it a try."

Jiang Linxian made no attempt to hide anything from Li Rui.

Ascension Platform

Li Rui narrowed his eyes slightly.

Even a genius like Jiang Linxian needs the Ascension Platform to have a chance to compete for the Dao Lord position.

That's not surprising.

Although Jiang Linxian is said to be the closest to the Dao Lord in Baiyujing, he is only closer than the other True Lords, and it is still extremely difficult.

Even the reincarnation of Master Zhu, who broke through the secrets of the womb, failed to become a Dao Lord again, which shows the hardship involved.

"Good luck, Brother Jiang."

"Thank you for your kind words, brother."

Jiang Linxian laughed heartily, and then his body deftly vanished into thin air.

after that.

Li Rui continued his cultivation in the courtyard as before.

Cui He and Gu Changsheng were enjoying the cool air in the courtyard, discussing interesting things in Shenxu City.

Suddenly—

There was a knock on the door.

Before the door was even opened, Cui He frowned slightly: "Divine Void Guard?"

Gu Changsheng also stood up, a hint of apprehension flashing in his eyes.

That day, the Divine Void Guard chased a Nascent Soul cultivator so hard that he fled in disarray all over the city. Even if he didn't die or lose his Dao, he was at least seriously injured, and his path to immortality was cut off.

They both remembered it very clearly.

In front of the Divine Void Guards, the names of the Heavenly Mystery Clan and the Cui Family are not so effective.

Just as the two were filled with surprise and doubt.

But then they saw Li Rui walk out of the small house and calmly push open the courtyard gate.

Congratulations, Scholar Li.

An official in a purple robe offered his congratulations with clasped hands.

"Bachelor's degree?"

Upon hearing this, Cui He and Gu Changsheng exchanged bewildered glances. Li Rui had always lived a secluded life at home; how could he suddenly have become an official?

The two were puzzled.

Li Rui's voice transmission rang in my ears.

That made it clear.

Cui He couldn't help but exaggerate the image of the venerable Zhuge Liang, who was far away in Baiyujing, once again in his heart.

'Our ancestor was so thoughtful!'

The most outstanding Daoist of Baiyujing came to Zhongzhou, not to hide his identity. It was obvious that Ancestor Zhuge had paved the way for Li Rui long ago.

This made Cui He quite envious.

The Cui family wielded considerable power.

Even if it's distributed among everyone, it might not be more than what Li Rui received.

Bai Yujing intends to use the entire power of his sect to support Li Rui's path to enlightenment!

Cui He's heart pounded with excitement: "We made the right bet!"

"Scholar Li has recently gained considerable fame, and I have long admired him."

The official in purple robes spoke with a smile.

What he said was true.

Just a few days ago, the list of Heavenly Secrets was released, and Li Rui's name jumped into the top 200 of the Earthly Register in one go. This speed can be described as a once-in-three-thousand-years event.

Its reputation is not small even in Zhongzhou.

Furthermore, True Monarch Zihuan pointed out that the person who stepped into the ninth floor of Wangtian Tower that day was Li Rui!

In a short time, its fame spread far and wide.

The official in purple robes took out a piece of purple-gold iron cloth from his bosom and said loudly, "Scholar Li, this document was personally signed by the Emperor. You are extremely lucky."

This is the document appointing Li Rui.

Li Rui took the iron cloth, his heart stirred slightly.

The terrifying divine aura emanating from it originated from the character "帝" (Emperor) on the iron cloth.

"The methods of the Human Emperor are truly terrifying."

Li Rui was secretly surprised.

Not all emperors of immortal dynasties can be called the Human Emperor; only the five people in the Human Emperor Palace are qualified to call themselves the Human Emperor.

The Human Emperor of the Divine Void Immortal Dynasty was a great immortal cultivator at the Dao Lord level.

His cultivation is unfathomable.

This can be seen from the single character "帝" (emperor).

This document alone is a magical treasure no less powerful than a divine weapon.

With the iron cloth put away, Li Rui was now officially a scholar of the Hongwen Pavilion.

Seeing that Li Rui had received the iron silk, the purple-robed official laughed heartily: "My name is Teng Bochuan, and I also serve in the Hongwen Pavilion. Scholar Li, you still have seven days to prepare before taking up your post. I have prepared some spiritual food and wine at the Lingguang Tower. How about we have a little chat?"

Li Rui certainly knew.

Teng Bochuan was interested in befriending him.

He certainly wouldn't do anything to spoil the mood, so he immediately agreed: "Then I'll respectfully comply."

at dusk.

Li Rui and Teng Bochuan sat facing each other in a private room in Lingguang Tower. There were seven or eight kinds of snacks on the table. The spiritual energy and aroma wafted to their noses. Each dish was comparable to a large pill!
'They're quite willing to spend that much.'

This meal will cost at least several hundred top-grade spirit stones!

Teng Bochuan said with a smile, "Scholar Li, I studied at Shenlu Academy for several years, under the tutelage of Master Zhu."

"I've heard that Scholar Li was also recommended by Master Zhu?"

He heard the news at Hongwen Pavilion, which is why he specifically took on this job.

In the Divine Void Immortal Dynasty, the bond between fellow disciples is extremely useful.

Li Rui had no intention of hiding anything, nor could he hide anything.

Since they're already holding positions in the imperial court, it would be rather unprofessional to be secretive and secretive.

“I was indeed introduced by Master Zhu.”

Li Rui confirmed this.

Teng Bochuan became even more interested, and the two chatted for a long time, eventually becoming close friends.

They drank three rounds of the spirit wine.

Teng Bochuan said, "Brother Li, you may not know this, but this imperial edict has many wonderful uses!"
