Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 229 The World
I do not know how long it has been.

On the sacred mountain, only Shen Xi remained.

He stood on the edge of the cliff, looking down at the world's mountains and rivers, his gaze deep and unfathomable.

A soft murmur drifts away into the clouds.

"Spiritual platform."

The four realms of Earth, Moon, and Heaven are home to hundreds of billions of living beings.

The Lingtai realm has only a dozen or so members.

Countless geniuses at the Divine Palace Realm struggled desperately, but could not even glimpse the Spirit Platform.

Shen Xi is just one of them.

Suddenly.

He suddenly turned around and looked at the portal to the world, his expression unusually surprised.

Right under his gaze.

The enormous gate of the Earth-Moon Academy world, as vast as the sky, actually emitted a thunderous tremor!

Boom!

A deafening roar echoed across the sky!
At the gateway to the world, blazing lights intertwined and miraculously merged!
"How is this going?"

Shen Xi was horrified. He took a step forward and appeared directly below the portal.

Surrounded by surging air currents, he held his identity device and walked towards the outside of the gate.

Clang!
A deafening roar came from my ears!

Shen Xi retreated rapidly, dissipating the immense force of the recoil, and looked up at the world portal, his expression becoming increasingly solemn!
at the same time.

His golden identity device flashed with light!

Countless communications messages came in one after another!

"The lunar realm is in turmoil!"

"The Earth's surface boundary is trembling!"

"The boundary portal has been squeezed and closed by the boundary wall!"

The message was striking and pierced Shen Xi's eyes.

His heart sank.

The turmoil in the lunar realm intensifies.

At this point, it even affected the Earth's surface!

Both the Earth Alliance and Chang'an Prefecture sent messages one after another.

Let Shenxi guard the border gate.

The Surface Realm will try to restore the Nine Realms of Chang'an Prefecture to normal as soon as possible.

The Nine Realms were affected by the fluctuations, with numerous subsequent impacts and implications.

The Earth-Moon Academy will temporarily cease accepting new students.

Graduates are unable to leave the dual realm.

On the holy mountain.

All the teachers and staff of the university came outside.

Looking up at the gateway to the world, they were horrified and speechless.

The second boundary was completely sealed off by the pressure from the surface boundary wall.

In other words.

At this time, the academic world was isolated from the outside world!

News of such dramatic changes spread like wildfire among all living things on Earth in a very short time.

Like a giant rock thrown forcefully into a stream, it stirs up a thousand splashes.

Da Zhou, Zhenhai Prefecture.

The Demon Slayer Division.

"The lunar realm is in turmoil, the surface boundary is squeezed, and the world portal is forced to close."

"The second realm has temporarily become an isolated city."

The commander's seal also displayed a message.

This is a message sent by Xu Chaolu to Jiang Jian.

These days.

Jiang Jian had already noticed that the official seal of the Great Zhou Dynasty was similar to the identity artifacts in the surface world.

If a being from the Earth's surface holds this item, it can connect to the network of destiny and send messages to all beings within it.

Native creatures cannot do this.

Through the Qi Luck Network, Jiang Jian could clearly see the surface beings who were currently serving in the Great Zhou Dynasty and had not yet left.

Furthermore, it was discovered that...

Throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty, almost all important official positions, whether in the Grand Secretariat or the Six Ministries, were occupied by students from academies!

The governor of the Demon Slaying Division in the capital also sent a message to Jiang Jian through his official seal.

Inform the world that the portal has closed. Do not panic. Just focus on your cultivation and wait for it to reopen.

This message was sent to a group.

However, the information clearly states that...

Recently, the fortunes of the Great Zhou Dynasty have increased dramatically.

He will do his best to help the students working in the Demon Slayer Bureau and obtain more imperial edicts.

Jiang saw that of the original four imperial edicts, half of them had already been used up in less than a month.

Quiet room.

"With the circulation of Qi into spiritual energy, cultivation is indeed much faster."

Jiang stopped cultivating and put away the official seal.

Beside him lay two rolls of brocade, their color grayish, their spirit utterly lost.

These were the two imperial edicts that had been used.

"We've used up most of the resources we brought."

Jiang Jian lowered his gaze, looking at the crystal in his hand. A water spirit stone.

With a flick of his fingers, the crystal-clear spirit stone turned into dust and collapsed silently.

This is the last piece of water spirit stone brought from Qiushui Palace.

Since this month.

Jiang Jian spent two days swiftly and decisively clearing away all the disaster-stricken areas in Zhenhai Prefecture!
Countless people cheered and celebrated the achievements of the Demon Slayer Division with gongs and drums.

The officials of Zhenhai Prefecture were overjoyed and sent many treasures as a gesture of goodwill.

Unknowingly.

Jiang Jian's official seal as commander is connected to the fortune of the Great Zhou Dynasty, unlocking a massive amount of spiritual energy!
After returning to the Demon Slayer Division.

Jiang Jian retrieved the imperial edict and took the resources from Qiushui Palace.

For more than twenty days, they did not go out even once.

Day and night, he devoted himself to rigorous self-cultivation in the quiet room.

Luck and inspiration depend on the transformation of official seals.

The imperial edict of the Great Zhou Dynasty amplified this spiritual power to a terrifying degree!
In addition, it is blessed by the Autumn Water Spirit Essence, the Sea-Suppressing Pearl, and the Water Spirit Stone.

One month.

Jiang Jian's cultivation speed is now half again as fast as it was in the Dragon Palace!
The reason.

This is because the spiritual energy of the Dragon Palace in the Sea has been severely weakened.

The advantages of cultivating within this environment are not obvious.

"There are only two imperial edicts left."

"The scarce resources of Qiushui Palace are also insufficient."

Jiang Jian stood up and walked to the door of the quiet room.

A layer of dust had settled on the doors and windows.

This is, after all, an ordinary pavilion, without any formations.

But Jiang Jian was dressed in a moon-white robe, which was clean and spotless.

Threads of shimmering gold light flowed, appearing and disappearing between the sleeves of the robe.

Squeak.

Jiang Jian pushed open the door.

Not far away, a demon-slaying guard heard the noise and exclaimed with delight, "Commander!"

Although Jiang Jian instructed that no one should disturb him during his meditation.

However, Deputy Commander Wang Jian, eager to prove himself, still sent a team of demon-slaying guards to patrol outside the Jingwai Gate day and night.

"Congratulations on your successful completion of the seclusion, Commander!"

The demon-slaying guard strode forward, knelt on the ground, and bowed loudly.

"No gift."

Jiang Jian walked past with a flick of his sleeve, through the corridor, and headed towards the Demon Slayer Hall.

Along the way, wherever we went.

All the guard captains and demon-slaying guards stood up straight, their faces showing reverence: "Commander!"

Jiang Jian led the Demon Slayer Division to clean up more than ten disaster-stricken sites.

For the people of Zhenhai Prefecture, he removed more than a dozen malignant tumors.

These demon-slaying guards received unprecedented respect when they walked outside!
When the local people encounter the Demon Slayer Guards on patrol, they always offer them fine wine and meat as a warm welcome.

The demons and monsters in the vicinity were terrified of the Demon Slaying Division of Zhenhai Prefecture and fled at the mere mention of its name, daring not to enter Zhenhai Prefecture at all.

Compared to when Liu Ji was in power, Zhenhai Prefecture is now a peaceful place.

The local people have finally enjoyed a rare period of peace and stability.

The Commander of the Demon Slayer Division is gaining increasing prestige among the people.

Many people, from household to household, pooled their money to build a shrine for Jiang Jian and offered devout worship.

The demon-slaying guards shared in the honor.

Every time I went out on patrol, I stood tall with my head held high, filled with pride.

Normally, patrolling is a chore, and nobody wants to do it.

But now, almost all the demon-slaying guards are vying to go out on patrol.

This turned what was originally a chore into a highly sought-after job.

"Lord Commander!"

At the entrance of the hall, Wang Jian strode forward and made a gesture as if to kneel.

"Come in."

Jiang Jian walked past him, his moon-white robe sleeves fluttering lightly, and swept him directly into the hall.

Wang Jian stumbled and lost his balance, barely managing to stand upright in the hall, his face filled with horror.

"Just what level has the Commander's cultivation reached that is so terrifying?"

He stood there, raised his head, and looked up at the white-robed youth above, his heart trembling.

Wang Jian himself was at the Yongquan Realm cultivation level.

He could face Jiang Jian.

Wang Jian, however, clearly sensed it.

Compared to it, I am like a stream to the ocean, the difference is like heaven and earth.

"Wang Jian."

The young man in the white robe spoke softly.

Wang Jian realized what was happening and immediately responded loudly, "Commander!"

Jiang Jian sat at the table, briefly flipped through the files, and said, "You've done a good job these past few days."

Wang Jian was flattered and his face flushed slightly. He hurriedly said, "I am grateful for the Commander's divine might, which has enhanced the prestige of our Demon-Slaying Division. As a member of the division, I dare not shirk my duty."

Jiang Jian nodded and said, "There's something I need you to do."
