The Immortal Court's commendation decree came suddenly, without any news in advance.
It is precisely because of this that the Guangping County Ghost and God Department was extremely surprised.
They were not surprised that Du Guan Han Chen and Deputy Du Guan Li Guang received awards from the Immortal Court for their meritorious service. After all, they were from a powerful Immortal Sect and had strong Taoist and supernatural powers. It was normal for them to make great contributions during the turmoil in the Demonic Abyss of the East China Sea.
What surprised everyone was that Chu Chen also made meritorious deeds, even more than the two Du Guan.
Rating first class.
This is a great honor, and it must be given by the Immortal Court after a particularly important and outstanding performance.
Everyone glanced at Dai Du Guan Li Guang from time to time.
At this moment, Li Guang's expression was quite calm. The sudden arrival of the Immortal Court's decree was indeed beyond his expectation, but he was not surprised at all when he was rewarded and credited.
Chu Chen is in charge of the East Extreme Abyss Dragon and has great magical powers in the Demon Abyss. As soon as the demon flames come out, the demons retreat.
They can easily activate the traction array, and Chu Chen should be remembered as the first one.
In addition, what happens to be the most critical traction array is the fourth. It is not surprising that the Immortal Court will give him a first-class merit rating, and he will be promoted to the first level. It is not surprising that the Immortal Court will give him a large reward.
Everyone didn't know the details, but Li Guang, the general manager, didn't look strange, so everyone knew that Chu Chen's contribution was real.
For a time, everyone in the meeting hall had different thoughts.
Chu Chen was promoted to the first level of Lu, and he was promoted to a false position, from a sixth-level Immortal to a fifth-level Dutian Dharma Master. However, his position in the County Ghosts and Gods Department has not changed at all, and he is still a member of the Huanghao Academy.
However, the meaning behind it is extraordinary.
After being promoted to the fifth-grade immortal official, Chu Chen's status among the presidents and vice-presidents of the four courtyards of Tiandi Xuanhuang became transcendent. He was slightly beyond the scope of the person in charge of the four courtyards, ranking only among the deputy capital Under control.
Once there is a vacancy in the County Ghosts and Gods Department, he can take advantage of the situation and sit on the fifth-level immortal position with real power, becoming one of the top leaders of the Guangping County Ghosts and Gods Department.
For a moment, everyone's eyes changed slightly when they looked at Chu Chen.
Among them, the most emotional ones were none other than Taoist Yunlei and Master Zhenqing.
Taoist Yunlei couldn't help but feel in a trance. Unknowingly, whether it was Taoist cultivation or immortal position in the Immortal Court, his nephew was on an equal footing with him, and he had the qualifications to carry the banner of the Lingshan Sect.
As the second-generation disciple of Xinlingshan, Zhenqing, as the senior brother, should have shouldered the banner, but...
Taoist Yunlei thought of this and couldn't help but look at Zhenqing who was huddled in the corner.
At this moment, Zhenqing's scalp was numb, and he couldn't help but look at his master secretly, preparing to observe his words.
As a result, their eyes met.
Just in time to meet that hateful look.
Zhenqing: "."
The routine meetings of the County Ghosts and Gods Department did not cause any commotion. The Immortal Court's commendation decree became the object of heated discussion among the entire County Ghosts and Gods Department.
The protagonist is naturally Chu Chen, who has been promoted to the fifth rank of Dutian Dharma Master.
On this day, there were obviously many more people visiting Huanghaoyuan than usual.
Chu Chen refused all invitations. After leaving the office, he specially invited Wang Ping, Qian Sangua and Yuantong to eat out.
Yesterday, he went to Guangping Ghost Market to find Ying'er. He failed to entertain the three of them, so naturally he had to make up for it as soon as possible.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, I never expected that you would break through again. It really puts us to shame."
At the wine table, Qian Sangua couldn't help but sigh with complicated expressions.
Wang Ping and the young monk Yuantong nodded repeatedly and sighed.
Before, their Taoist cultivation was low and they didn't see that Chu Chen had broken through to the fifth level of Taoism. They thought that it was only the sixth level of Taoism and they still had a chance to catch up.
But now, Chu Chen broke through the fifth level in a leap, and everyone suddenly lost the courage to catch up and gave up the idea of catching up.
"I made a breakthrough by chance. Don't be anxious. Don't be impatient in your practice. Just let nature take its course and don't overthink it."
Chu Chen couldn't help but persuade him.
The more you practice to a higher level, the more important Taoist mind and state of mind are. Taoist practice pays attention to the word "purity". There are too many thoughts and too complex, making it difficult to practice.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Chu, for your guidance."
Qian Sangua and Monk Yuantong thanked him seriously, quite formally, and their words were not as casual as before. Their attitude towards Chu Chen was slightly more reserved.
Compared with Qian Sangua and Yuantong Monk, Wang Ping is much more flexible.
Under the influence of his family, Wang Ping is much more mature than his peers. He can adjust his mentality in time, overcome the sense of loss in his heart, turn his head to move closer to Chu Chen, and give full play to his former network advantages.
Wang Ping smiled and said to Chu Chen:
"Brother Chu, as long as we are rich and noble, don't forget each other. From now on, you can look after and support your brothers."
Chu Chen broke through to the fifth level of Taoism, and was promoted to the fifth level of immortality. He was on the rise, and people from the entire Guangping County Ghost and God Department flocked to please Chu Chen.
Compared with outsiders who deliberately try to please others, Wang Ping seems very natural, complimenting but not flattering.
Chu Chen is also willing to get close to his former friends and colleagues, firstly as a personal relationship, and secondly to cultivate his own power.
In the future, he is expected to take charge of the government, but if he is helped by people who do not know the basics, it will be difficult for him to do so.
"We don't dare to support and care for each other. Let's help each other cultivate our merits."
After drinking and drinking together, we returned home happily.
After returning to Yunshui Residence, Master Xu Ping had not returned yet, so Chu Chen went straight to the practice clean room.
Taking out the bracelet from the Immortal Mansion, he found a cloth bag in his hand.
"Hulala~"
More than 800 thumb-sized beans were poured out of the bag at once. The skin of the beans was orange-yellow. Under the spiritual vision, the beans exuded a faint spiritual energy, which was extraordinary at first sight.
These are spiritual beans that are around 500 years old that Qingying helped him acquire. Each spiritual bean is worth four to five hundred jade coins, and the total value is more than three hundred thousand jade coins.
These are the finest spiritual beans available on the market.
Whether it is the Yishifang Market open on the bright side of the Celestial Empire or the large and small ghost markets in the world of immortality, there are very few thousand-year-old spirit beans for sale.
"These spirit beans will be enough for me for a while, but I still have to prepare for a rainy day. Otherwise, it will be a bit embarrassing if my Taoist cultivation level has improved but my soldiers and horses have not."
Collecting and cultivating Millennium Lingdou is not an easy task, and it is very necessary to make arrangements several years in advance.
As a result, Chu Chen ignored the spiritual beans on the table, but took out the dream stone and invited Sister Wan'er to her dream.
First of all, the best place to practice "bean soldiers" is in the military camp. With the help of the evil spirit on the battlefield, the bean soldiers have even better magical powers.
Secondly, he planned to talk to Yu Xuzi, the headmaster of Guigu, to see if he could get the Millennium Spirit Bean from him.
Chu Chen was not a direct descendant of Guigu, Shuiliandong, and did not have the ability to contact his master uncle Yu Xuzi from thousands of miles away, so he could only rely on Sister Wan'er's information channel.
But it's a pity.
Sister Xu Shi Wan'er was out in the field, beyond the communication range of Mengshi, and could not contact anyone.
When Chu Chen was playing with the dream stone,
Outside the courtyard, Master Xu Ping's voice rang out.
"Master!"
Chu Chen didn't think much, put down the dream stone, and quickly stood up to greet him.
"Disciple, I heard about the Immortal Court's award decree. Hahaha, yes, yes. From a fifth-grade immortal official, you have a place in the world of immortality."
Taoist Master Xu Ping had long known the news of Chu Chen's enthronement and was sincerely happy for Chu Chen. He even finished his Taoist chores early today and came back early today.
Chu Chen was smiling and in a good mood.
The little kid on the side poked his head out from the corner, holding an incense burner in one hand. He did not ask for the incense at this moment, but looked up at the two of them:
"Master, senior brother, I have a confusion?"
Chu Chen and Xu Ping were in a good mood and smiled after hearing this:
"Little devil, what are you confused about?"
The kid scratched his head: "I am still a sixth-grade immortal official, but my senior brother has become a fifth-grade immortal official. If you are in the Immortal Court, do you have to bow when you see your senior brother?"
Chu Chen and Xu Ping: "."
The whole house was quiet except for the whirring outside the window.
The wind blows the fallen leaves, and the leaves swirl in the air.
