Chapter 895: Chapter 581: Breakthrough (4K)_3

Yuan Jiang shook his head and said.

"You can’t put it like that. Every Immortal Official of the Celestial Court can be said to be a peerless genius of some mortal Great Realm, or a heaven‑favored child from the deep dimensions of the Celestial Realm’s great powers. They cannot all be judged by the same standard!"

"Speaking of the Ji Family of the Three Emperors Celestial Realm alone, you, Dao‑friend, are already an exceptionally brilliant one among them!"

Seeing this Commander Yuan full of praise, Ji Family was somewhat taken aback.

Ever since she began handling part of the internal affairs in place of Zhang Jian, she had clearly noticed that the many Immortal Officials inside and outside the Eternal Ice Castle were visibly more respectful in their attitude toward her.

Even someone like Yuan Jiang, a Taiyi Celestial Immortal.

But in the end, it still came down to the divine might of Zhang Jian, the Eternal Celestial Monarch.

Without Zhang Jian, even if she truly were from the Ji Family of the Three Emperors Celestial Realm, these High-Tier Immortal Gods would not necessarily give her any pleasant expressions.

Seeing that Ji Family did not wish to say more, Yuan Jiang merely let his gaze move slightly.

Ever since Wu Chun, that Commander of the Eternal Celestial Soldiers and Ice Castle Deputy Lord, had met with an accident, the positions of Eternal Heavenly Army Commander and Deputy Castle Master had instantly fallen vacant.

As Deputy Commander of the Eternal Celestial Army, Yuan Jiang naturally had hopes of succeeding, and thus he had been actively maneuvering all along.

However, at this time, the most important thing was undoubtedly the attitude of Zhang Jian, the Eternal Ice Castle Celestial Monarch.

If Zhang Jian did not support him, the Celestial Court was very likely to parachute in another Commander to take the post.

At this moment Zhang Jian was in closed‑door cultivation.

Thus, it was Ji Family who would be handling this matter, and he naturally had to spend some effort to cater to her preferences.

Ji Family watched Yuan Jiang’s receding figure; there was a hint of laughter in her eyes.

She saw through Yuan Jiang’s urgency as clearly as a candle in the dark.

On this matter, she was actually not planning to make things difficult for him.

Yuan Jiang had already made his stance clear—he was willing to follow the Eternal Celestial Monarch with unwavering loyalty—so she certainly did not wish for some unfamiliar Commander to be parachuted in.

The memorial of recommendation she had already written; all that remained was to send it up to the Celestial Court.

At this time, her gaze fell beyond the city tower. She noticed that over the past hundred years, the chill of the Eternal Ice Castle seemed to have grown day by day; the snow fell ever heavier, and at times there were even scenes of mingled rain and snow.

There were also some abnormalities over in Beichi Zhou. It was said that winter lasted somewhat longer than in previous years.

Ji Family did not take such minor changes to heart.

Beichi Zhou lay close to the Eternal Forbidden Area, and the Eternal Mountain Range had had a portion destroyed in battle by several Daoist Monarchs; that Beichi Zhou suffered some influence was only natural.

"I wonder to what stage Your Majesty’s cultivation has now reached!"

At this moment, some thoughts stirred in Ji Family’s heart.

Very soon she descended from the city tower again and returned to the Celestial Monarch’s Mansion.

One thousand two hundred and eighty years later.

Within the Eternal Ice Crystal Divine Hall, upon the Celestial Monarch’s Throne, an immense and ineffable power blossomed forth around Zhang Jian. One could see above his head the Space-Time and the deep reaches of the River of Destiny; at the instant this radiance erupted, strands of space-time were like ten thousand rivers returning to the sea, naturally merging into Zhang Jian’s body upon the divine throne.

Under the Three-Colored Divine Light, there was not the slightest hindrance!

The power of the Three Lives Stone pierced through all ages; even the traces of certain Daoist Monarchs were drowned by the Three-Colored Divine Light!

A portion of the Daoist Monarchs who had once intersected with Zhang Jian vaguely sensed something at this moment, but did not act to stop it!

Most of these Daoist Monarchs had no conflict with Zhang Jian!

And those that did have conflicts had the will but not the power!

Such as Jiu Feng, Profound Extreme Demon Monarch, and the like!

Upon the divine throne, the Dao Fruit Immortal Light deep in the center of his brows swelled at a speed visible to the naked eye, expanding three to fourfold in a short span.

One saw behind him the River of Space-Time gradually contracting, transforming into a single origin point that fell into the depths of his Earth Emperor Dao Fruit; at this moment, his past, present, and future abruptly became a Chaos that could not be spied upon.

His whole body was filled with the sole, majestic Dao-rhyme of Eternity.

Taiyi Perfection Fourth Step had already been achieved.
