Chapter 570: Immortal Official, Obtaining Mirage Qi
After the evil dog priest left, Ji Ming dragged Taihe Zhenren and chased after him.

On the way, Master Taihe found an excuse and wanted to forcibly withdraw from the action of resisting foreign enemies.

However, Ji Ming did not indulge him. He directly rebuked Taihe, saying that he had dispatched Taiping strongmen to sneak into the small blessed land without authorization with the intention of doing something bad. This behavior was really crazy. He did not take Lu Zhenjun seriously at all, and even forgot the words of Taiping Acting Master Lizhu who tried to reconcile the conflict between the two in the Shangfu Treasure Pavilion.

After hearing Ji Ming's words, Master Taihe lost all his arrogance and could only obey his orders.

Later, Ji Ming's search in the small blessed land was fruitless, and Taihe had the opportunity to withdraw. However, he didn't know that Ji Ming did it on purpose so that Master Qianhuan could set a trap in the Dharma Realm so that Taihe's soul would fall into it.

Even if the three hundred Taiping strongmen were really mobilized, Ji Ming would not be able to compete head-on, and Taihe Zhenren had to be eliminated early.

After pretending to chase for a while, Ji Ming felt that the time was almost right, so he turned around and went back. At the same time, he communicated with the Echo Monk Ghost under the Earth's Lungs, asking him to go upstream through the earth veins to investigate the situation in the Diaolong Pond.

According to the feedback from the Echo Monk Ghost, outside the Yinsha Spirit Cave in the pool, there were clusters of golden figures running around like headless flies.

Then he used strong winds to push the clouds back, creating such a noise, with the purpose of attracting the attention of Master Qianhuan, so that the Echo Ghost Monk could better find out the situation in the pond and report it to him accurately.

When the Echoing Monk Ghost found out that the golden figures were the three hundred Taiping strongmen, Ji Ming already had an idea of ​​the situation of Taihe Zhenren. He immediately rushed to Diaolongtan, preparing to force Master Qianhuan into the pond and subdue him with the preset "Beiquezhu Palace".

When Ji Ming's fighting spirit was rising, the Echo Monk Ghost came again to say that there was a precious pearl dropped on the pond. Looking at it gave one a calming feeling and it must be a treasure that could protect one's soul from harm.

Upon hearing this, Ji Ming immediately slowed down his speed of advancing into the Diaolong Pond, realizing that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and would be far more convenient than relying on his profound magical powers to force Master Qianhuan to enter the pond to receive the illusion.

He immediately sent the monk ghost Huisheng to transform into the Taiping Hercules at the bottom of the pond, pretending to snatch the pearl, and lured Master Qianhuan to go down to the pond to retrieve the pearl.

After finishing communicating with the ghost monk Huisheng, Ji Ming suddenly became nervous.

He rarely feels nervous now, unless the harvest is rich enough and far exceeds his expectations.

Master Qianhuan has been famous in the South China Sea for a long time and has already created his own school. He is considered a big shot. The key is that he still has a trace of Ancestral Mirage Qi. If he takes it, and adds the one from the Son of Chi Shen, Ji Ming will already possess three traces of Ancestral Mirage Qi.

In the Mirage Spirit Realm, the only ones who can control the three ancestral mirage auras are a celestial immortal, an arhat, and a demon immortal. Therefore, the ancestral mirage aura of Master Qianhuan is of great significance.

"It's done!"

The Beiquezhu Palace imposed on the pond was like a big fish caught in a net, bringing a huge burden to Ji Ming.

He quickly descended from the clouds and flashed to the Diaolongtan Lake. Without thinking, he revealed his identity as a general from Xuanming Star and punched the Diaolongtan Lake. Unexpectedly, an oily light appeared on the lake, and the shadows of three people and a dragon were revealed in it.

Xingxiu continued to punch at full speed, and Ji Ming shouted, "Zhang Xiaoyuan, if you don't wake up now, when will you wake up?"

With a loud shout, Zhang Xiaoyuan, who was in a coma, immediately opened his eyes, opened his mouth and released a small divine sound that shook open the illusion world, grabbed Luo Ji and Qingbolong, and finally wanted to rescue Taihe Yin Shen.

But at this time, Xing Xiujiang's fist fell faster, forcing Zhang Xiaoyuan to dodge. At the same time, he understood Ling Xuzi's intention, which was to make Tai Hezi suffer this hardship.

The fist punched through, and even the softest water in the pond could not completely dissipate the force. The water was squeezed and burst inch by inch, and the body of Master Qianhuan was inevitably crushed in an instant by the huge force of the underwater squeezing.

Even though his body was shattered, his soul was still struggling violently in the Beiquezhu Palace, and then suddenly lost strength.

Without the support of the golden elixir in the physical body, the soul was nothing but water without a source and a tree without roots. Soon, a small dragon in the shape of white gas emerged from the broken body and was pulled into the mouth of a small bottle from under the burst pool of water.

"The ancestral mirage energy is in hand."

Ji Ming felt very satisfied in his heart. This was the feeling of a good harvest.

Looking at the shattered body in the water and the golden pill squeezed out by the flesh and blood, Ji Ming had a flash of thought in his mind, then he shook his head slightly and used the Heart-Sucking Yin Pearl to devour the body and Yin spirit of Master Qian Huan, completely destroying them both. "Daoyou Qian Huan, our calamity is over!"

Ji Ming made hand gestures in front of him, as if he was talking to himself, but also to someone else.

"Fellow Daoist Lingxu is indeed not a mediocre person."

The evil dog priest outside the pond rode on a yellow tiger, wearing a red robe and armor, holding a golden whip in his hand, and praised loudly in his protruding dog mouth, saying: "I don't want to be your enemy. If you can promise not to pursue the son of Chi Shen, I can do you a favor."

"The son of Chi Shen listened to the words of the treacherous villain, causing our Heguan to suffer this unprovoked disaster, which affected the education of Guhezhou. How can you be responsible for such a matter?"

"I can promise it."

The evil dog priest swore solemnly: "As long as you say it, I can promise it."

Ji Ming's heart trembled. Seeing the demeanor of the evil dog priest, it seemed that he really had a great background. So he slowed down his tone and said tentatively: "Okay, if you want to resolve the grudge and eliminate the hatred, it is not impossible for me to swallow this fruit."

As he spoke, he pointed to the sky.

"My request is not high. Just give me a promotion in Nandou Yanshou Palace and make me a divine general."

The evil dog priest suppressed his dissatisfaction and said, "No, you don't have to test my ability. How can you become a god general in heaven just by saying so? Why don't you ask me for a spiritual official to be the god general?"

"Ask for a high price and pay it back on the spot."

Ji Ming replied.

"It is impossible for you to be promoted to a Divine General. Not to mention that your cultivation level is only the fourth level, and you have not yet entered the Central Palace, but you have cultivated the skill of reversing the five elements. Let's talk about whether you have achieved the external merits and hidden virtues that a Divine General needs to cultivate."

"Then I will take a step back. Now I have a position as a clerk in the Yanshou Palace. If you promote me to a senior clerk, then the old grudge will be settled immediately."

Although the heavens are free and the various palaces and departments are not the power organs in the mortal dynasties, they are still divided into different levels because of their powers and their closeness to the immortals and gods.

For example, the first level of immortal officials is further divided into three levels.

The highest rank is the chief clerk, who can live in the palace of the Lei and Dou departments, be in charge of the same affairs, and can participate in the decision-making of the palace.

The first-class people this time are called Shangsili, who can walk around the Heavenly Palace, handle important documents and decrees from various departments and palaces, be entrusted with important affairs, and come into contact with the secrets of the palace.

The next level is the scattered officials.

Just from the word "scattered", we can tell that this is a leisurely official position.

In heaven, one is not afraid of having too many errands, as if one can bring him/her great benefits and see a wider world. One is afraid of being left idle in the lower world, being a carefree official and sinking into mediocrity.

Strictly speaking, Ji Ming, a clerk in the government office, can be considered a casual official, but there are some differences.

There are not many channels of communication between the spiritual world and the human world. The clerks who help the Taoist priests convey documents such as prayers and rain to the heaven can barely be considered a channel of communication. There is a lot of money in it and they can also earn a lot of favors.

If Ji Ming had not had to practice complicated exercises and take care of his second soul, he would have taken advantage of his position to make a fortune in the human world.

In addition, what makes him different as a direct official in the government is that he was granted the position by the White Crane Boy of the Three Fates Old Star God. He is close to the White Crane Boy and has a superior status, so he is also called the Jinfu Direct Official.
