Chapter 898: Chapter 583: Overcoming a Dangerous Trial

Taiyi the Celestial Lord of Salvation usually resides in the Dongji Miaoyan Palace of the Celestial Realm, commanding all True Immortals of the Cyan Profound Left Mansion, and is responsible for the salvation affairs across the Three Realms (Immortal Realm Longevity, Mortal World Salvation, Netherworld Deliverance). This Celestial Venerable’s Dao Practice is formidable, holding a highly esteemed position among the Immortals.

Zhang Jian had long intended to visit this Taiyi the Celestial Lord of Salvation.

He was also curious.

When he ascended, this Taiyi the Celestial Lord of Salvation had indeed decreed a Talisman Decree, allowing him to enter the Netherworld anytime he wished and become a Netherworld Emperor.

Or perhaps to follow Taiyi the Celestial Lord of Salvation.

If not for the many backgrounds he had and a Daoist Monarch supporting him, Zhang Jian would find it difficult to refuse a Talisman Decree from an Immortal Venerable.

This being is one of the Six Celestial Emperors, and following this celestial figure would undoubtedly lead to a bright future.

In the Netherworld Palace, Zhang Jian met this Ten Directions Savior, who senses cries for help, with King Yu. He was dressed as a Daoist, wearing a Tai Chi Lotus Crown, draped in a Primordial Daoist Robe, holding a Duster in his hand, with gentle eyes like an ordinary Daoist who has long recited the Dao Scripture.

There was no imperial demeanor.

After a simple greeting, King Yu began chatting with this Celestial Venerable, and Zhang Jian became a bystander.

Zhang Jian was happy to be the bystander.

After some discussion, King Yu brought up the purpose of their visit.

Taiyi the Celestial Lord of Salvation spoke.

"Your Majesty King Yu, you should know the rules of the Dongji Miaoyan Palace. As long as the conditions are met, regardless of who it is, they can receive the permission of the Dongji Miaoyan Palace!"

King Yu smiled heartily upon hearing this.

"My disciple’s cultivation time is not long, but he has accumulated a great deal of Outer Training, and he already meets the requirements of the Dongji Miaoyan Palace!"

Zhang Jian maintained a solemn expression and straightened his posture.

The Dongji Miaoyan Palace wields part of the authority of the Netherworld Underworld, and this Taiyi the Celestial Lord of Salvation, being merciful in nature, proposes that to borrow the authority of the Netherworld Underworld for enlightenment, certain conditions must be met. As long as these five conditions are satisfied, Taiyi the Celestial Lord of Salvation will generally not make things difficult for the other party.

The most important of these five conditions is the accumulation of ten billion Outer Training.

Secondly, one must be of Daoist Sect origin, of Celestial Court origin, and there are several other conditions related to the Divine Dao.

Zhang Jian meets these conditions.

As for Outer Training, he previously rescued the Jade Glaze World’s majority of sentient beings, then assisted the Donghua Celestial Realm’s dimensional ascent successfully, guarding the Earth. Later, as the Water Official Emperor, he harmonized the Three Elements of Heaven and Earth, accumulating ten billion Outer Training.

Taiyi the Celestial Lord of Salvation nodded in response.

"If that is so, I will bestow an East Pole Talisman Decree, which can, when activated, offset a backlash from the Origin of the Netherworld Underworld!"

As he waved his hand, a milky white Immortal Light formed from the void, transforming into a Talisman Decree that fell into the depths of King Yu’s palm.

King Yu then handed this Talisman Decree to Zhang Jian.

"Disciple thanks the Celestial Venerable for the generous gift, disciple shall never forget the Celestial Venerable’s great kindness, and shall establish Ten Directions Merits in the future to repay all sentient beings!"

King Yu raised an eyebrow and glanced at Zhang Jian.

Establishing Ten Directions Merits is indeed a grand vow.

Ten Directions Merits entails at least a hundred billion Outer Training.

Surviving the dimensional ascent tribulation of the Donghua Celestial Realm was already a stroke of luck, and such opportunities won’t come easily in the future.

Taiyi the Celestial Lord of Salvation turned to look at Zhang Jian with a smile finally appearing on his face, complimenting him.

"You have wisdom, long ago I sensed someone had purloined a portion of my authority and thereby sensed your presence, but since the expansion of redemption authority aligns with my wish, I didn’t mind and instead secretly aided you!"

"Now, it seems you have indeed lived up to my expectations and grown successfully!"

Hearing this, King Yu looked slightly surprised.

"So it was the Celestial Venerable’s compassion that facilitated the success of his Redemption Immortal Technique!"

Taiyi the Celestial Lord of Salvation chuckled.

"To have one more Immortal God’s grace saving sentient beings and redeeming Heaven and Earth in this world, what great fortune for sentient beings it is!"

Zhang Jian felt somewhat ashamed.

And he felt an immense admiration for this Celestial Venerable’s magnanimity.

Secretly withholding this Celestial Venerable’s ’patent fee’ seemed rather short-sighted.

Having successfully acquired the Talisman Decree of Taiyi the Celestial Lord of Salvation, they were both extremely pleased with this successful encounter.

After leaving the Netherworld Palace of Taiyi the Celestial Lord of Salvation, they proceeded towards the Pingxin Hall at the depths of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

The Consecrated Earthly Spirit of Emulating Heaven usually resides in Pingxin Hall.

This time, Zhang Jian planned to meet alone.

Meeting two of the Six Imperial Lords in one day, Zhang Jian couldn’t help but feel some gravity in his heart.

In front of Pingxin Hall, a tall Ghost God looked at Zhang Jian and said in a deep voice.

"Eternal Celestial Monarch, Her Majesty Houtu rarely opens the palace gates and seldom meets guests. I will convey your message, but whether she chooses to see you depends on your fortune!"

"Thank you, Daoist friend!"

Zhang Jian gave a slight bow.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Jian added: "Daoist friend, recently I acquired an old item of Lady Xuanming’s and wish to present it to Her Majesty Houtu. I believe Her Majesty Houtu, upon hearing, will agree to the meeting!"

Upon hearing this, the tall Ghost God appeared slightly surprised, evidently familiar with Lady Xuanming, and immediately entered Pingxin Palace.

Moments later, he emerged from the palace and directly stated.

"Eternal Celestial Monarch, you may enter. Her Majesty Houtu is willing to grant you an audience!"

The Ghost God looked intriguingly at Zhang Jian, but quickly concealed this expression, stepping aside to make way.

Zhang Jian immediately crossed the enormous Netherworld Divine Bridge before him, stepping across the Six Paths of Reincarnation beneath, entering the depths of the torrent formed by the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Passing through cascades formed by layers of Nether Qi of Reincarnation, moments later countless Netherworld waterfalls were left behind, roaring like they were falling from the heavens.
