Primordial Era: I am a member of the Jie Sect, and I am the God of Literature.

Chapter 65 Zhao Gongming comprehends the Holy Path, is enfeoffed as the Emperor of the Big Dipper, commands the stars of the Big Dipper, and comprehends the Seven Killings of the Big Dipper.

"The disciples of the Jie Sect are all a group... what Master said is true."

Guang Chengzi, the leader of the Twelve Golden Immortals, couldn't help but ponder as the Jie Sect repeatedly entered the Heavenly Court, "Could the Jie Sect be plotting something this time...?"

Thinking of this, he prepared to go and pay his respects to his master to inquire about the situation. If the Jie Sect truly had some scheme in mind, their Chan Sect naturally could not remain uninvolved...

……

"Very well, the Three Immortals of Jiejiao, along with our elder brother, greet all fellow Daoists. We are grateful for your assistance today," Yunxiao said with a faint smile.

"How dare we! How dare we! You seniors are great cultivators of the primordial world, how can we compare to you?" Taibai Jinxian said hurriedly, extremely frightened.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Taibai Jinxian and the officials of the Heavenly Court led the Three Immortals of Sanxiao, Zhao Gongming, and Su Shaochen to the Yaochi for a banquet.

Even Su Shao Chen couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement at the scene. As expected of his masters, this scene was worlds apart from what he had witnessed back then...

However, Master and Senior Uncle are capable of handling such a scene, both in terms of their cultivation and status. It would be abnormal if only Taibai Jinxing was there, or if no one came to greet them.

Two Quasi-Saints alone would have been enough to draw all the officials of the Heavenly Court to come and greet them, let alone two Quasi-Saints, two peak Grand Luo Golden Immortals, and the added blessing of a disciple of a Saint, making it even more extraordinary.

In the Jade Pool.

Haotian and the Queen Mother of the West were already there, along with many other female immortals who were hosting a banquet.

A moment later, Venus invited the Three Immortals of Sanxiao and Zhao Gongming, and all the officials of the Heavenly Court took their places.

Su Shao Chen stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "I report to the Heavenly Emperor that the Heavenly Court's might extends to the primordial world today, and is also commanded by the Heavenly Dao. My master and senior uncle, now..."

Before Su Shao Chen could even finish speaking, Hao Tian spoke in a gentle, courteous tone, taking the initiative to speak.

"Now that I am in the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Dao has been moved and has sent word to me that a great cultivator from the primordial era has come to the Heavenly Court. I never expected it to be you fellow Daoists."

"The arrival of fellow Daoists in the Heavenly Court has given it a new look. On behalf of the Heavenly Court, I welcome you all."

Haotian's tone was sincere, showing absolutely no airs of a Heavenly Emperor, and he even lowered his status to treat everyone as equals.

Seeing this, Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals knew perfectly well what was going on. They cupped their hands and said, "We have met the Heavenly Emperor. We are honored by the Heavenly Emperor's favor. We siblings are also destined to be connected with the Heavenly Court. Today, the Dao has revealed its will, and we wish to enter the Heavenly Court and do something for it..."

"Excellent! With the help of you fellow Daoists, my Heavenly Court will surely become even more prosperous."

Immediately afterwards, Haotian held the Heavenly Mandate in his mouth and, with the aid of the Heavenly Emperor's authority, his voice resounded throughout the primordial world.

"The Three Immortals of Jie Sect have cultivated the Great Dao, attained the highest rank of immortal, and made great contributions to the Primordial World and the Xuanmen (mysterious sect). Heaven has revealed its will and has specially conferred upon them the title of Responsive and Companion of the World, granting them the first-rank divine position, allowing them to reside in the Nine Heavens, and to govern the birth of all living beings in the Primordial World, and to bestow blessings, misfortunes, good and evil!"

"Zhao Gongming of the Jie Sect, who cultivates the Great Dao, is ordained by Heaven as the God of Wealth. Today, Zhao Gongming is hereby conferred the title of God of Wealth, True Lord of the Mysterious Altar, enjoying a first-rank divine position, specializing in welcoming auspiciousness and blessings, managing the flow of wealth in commerce, and possessing the ability to attract treasures, collect valuables, bring wealth, and ensure market prosperity, recording the wealth of all living beings in the primordial world!"

"Su Shao Chen of the Jie Sect, cultivated the Dao of Literature and comprehended the Wenqu (the star of literature), spread the Dao among humanity, and governed the world. He was favored by Heaven and his merits are immeasurable. Now, in accordance with the Dao of Heaven, he is conferred the title of Wenqu Emperor and Beidou Emperor, enjoying a second-rank divine position, ruling over all the stars of the Beidou Dipper, and becoming the head of the Beidou Dipper!"

"He governs all literature and arts under heaven, oversees all human affairs, controls fortune and evil, follows the laws of the Nine Heavens, commands all spirits and deities, leads the register of the people, assists the Heavenly Emperor, and records all living beings in the primordial world."

Even Su Shao Chen was taken aback when he heard the Heavenly Emperor's words. He did not expect that Haotian would bestow a title upon him today, and that his divine position and rank would far surpass those before. Even a Great Luo Golden Immortal would be eager to receive such an imperial decree.

Haotian's voice resounded throughout the primordial world, and the Heavenly Court's fortune bestowed upon them, making Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals seem to have attained enlightenment. They all exuded a mysterious aura, especially Zhao Gongming, who seemed to have come to understand, and his peak Great Luo Golden Immortal body was beginning to transform into a Quasi-Saint.

"I have achieved the path to sainthood!" Zhao Gongming said with emotion, his aura becoming more ethereal than before.

Upon seeing this, the immortals including Venus also offered their congratulations, saying, "Congratulations, True Lord, on your enlightenment of the Great Dao. The Great Dao is within reach."

"Congratulations, elder brother, on your enlightenment of the Quasi-Saintly Opportunity!" The Three Immortals couldn't help but congratulate Zhao Gongming upon hearing his words.

Although Bixiao had also gained something, she always felt that something was missing, and she could never quite grasp that sliver of opportunity to break through to the Quasi-Saint realm. But now she knew that her breakthrough to the Quasi-Saint realm was probably related to her divine position...

Su Shao Chen naturally noticed the changes in Master Bi Xiao as well. Although he had some enlightenment like Uncle Zhao Gongming, he was clearly still lacking something.

This made Su Shao Chen ponder, "Sensing the world... granting a child..."

Suddenly, Su Shao Chen's eyes lit up, as if he had sensed something, and then he guessed what Master Bi Xiao's quasi-saint opportunity was.

Now is not the time to think about this matter. The opportunity for Master Bixiao to become a quasi-saint and his divine position need to be considered carefully.

After everyone received the decree, the banquet at Yaochi began.

Just as Su Shao Chen sat down, preparing to taste the peaches again, someone suddenly darted to his side. Su Shao Chen looked closely and saw that it was Bian Zhuang.

Upon seeing Bian Zhuang, Su Shao Chen couldn't help but think of the famous poem "Don't Bully a Poor Young Man" that had spread throughout the Heavenly Court. He strongly suspected that it was Bian Zhuang who had written it.

But after Bian Zhuang came to his side, he picked up a few peaches and started eating them, saying as he ate, "Brother Dao, I didn't spread the 'Don't Bully the Young and Poor' poem. Don't misunderstand, the most suspicious person in Heaven is..."

Bian Zhuang glanced at the Heavenly Emperor, but did not continue speaking. Instead, he quietly told Su Shao Chen a secret.

"Do you know what I discovered when I descended to the mortal realm? It's about the Heavenly Court, and a major event is about to occur there!"

Bian Zhuang spoke to Su Shao Chen with great confidence, and Su Shao Chen listened attentively to what Bian Zhuang had to say.

However, he glanced at Haotian and Yaochi Jinmu at the very top, as if to say, "Let's talk here?"

Bian Zhuang stopped them in time, and they waited until the banquet ended. Then Bian Zhuang took Su Shao Chen to the Milky Way, took out a magical treasure shaped like a magic lamp, and immediately enveloped the two of them.

Suddenly, the aura of a top-grade innate spiritual treasure surged forth, causing Su Shao Chen to glance at Bian Zhuang. If he wasn't mistaken, this should be the Eight Scenery Lantern.

It's good that there aren't many disciples; the spiritual treasures in the hands of the sage alone are enough to fill countless portions...

Bian Zhuang seemed to notice Su Shao Chen's gaze and couldn't help but say, "This was given to me by my master when I entered the Heavenly Court last time. I will have to return it in the future."

Upon hearing Bian Zhuang's words, Su Shao Chen's expression hardened, and he looked at Bian Zhuang with a somewhat strange expression.

Bian Zhuang's words made Su Shao Chen suspect that the lamp in Bian Zhuang's hand might have been orchestrated by a sage, specifically designed to ensure that Bian Zhuang wouldn't be discovered when he told him things in Heaven...

Thinking about this, Su Shao Chen calmed down and pondered what had happened in the Heavenly Court in later generations. During this period, very few major events occurred in the Heavenly Court, and Su Shao Chen made a guess in just a moment.

He also summoned the Seven-Corner Ruler, and a mysterious aura instantly enveloped the two of them.

Bian Zhuang sensed the aura of Su Shao Chen's spiritual treasure and couldn't help but take a deep look at Su Shao Chen.

Although this treasure exudes the aura of a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, its power is in no way inferior to the Eight Scenery Lamp in his hand, and the offensive aura contained within it far surpasses that of his Eight Scenery Lamp...
