Chapter Sixty-Nine: The Case of the Ninth Grade Demon [Requesting for further reading]
The morning sun rises, and the purple air comes from the east.
Xu Shixin accepted one hundred and fifty soldiers and horses, which stimulated the soldiers and horses in the original trap.
Chu Chen spent the whole night refining his divine weapons, and suddenly two more yellow scarf warriors appeared.
This made him happy.
As a result, there are ten Yellow Turban warriors under his command, and their combat power has steadily increased by a small step.
"Not bad!"
Chu Chen was in a happy mood, sitting cross-legged and meditating, taking in the purple energy of the morning sun.
Encounters in the world are often mysterious.
When I'm unlucky, I can't even drink water without my teeth filling it. When luck comes, surprises come one after another.
As soon as Chu Chen finished collecting the energy of the sun for a week, the energy and blood in his body began to boil.
It is like a river frozen in the cold winter. When the warm sun shines, the ice melts and the water flows endlessly.
Chu Chen only felt the energy and blood boiling in his body, like a cauldron in a raging fire.
Rolling heat flowed from his heart to his limbs, moistening his body and filling his body with surging power.
"This...is this the enlightenment and condensation of Xinyuan Lord into Yuanling?!"
Chu Chen was inexplicably surprised and looked inside intently.
Sure enough, he found a little spiritual light in the heart. A "Xin Yuan Lord" formed by condensing the vitality in the body was sitting cross-legged in the heart, closing his eyes and concentrating, and his whole body was emitting a faint golden light.
"It's true that good things come in pairs. Lord Xinyuan has transformed into Yuanling, and my ninth-level Taoist cultivation has been completely stabilized. Next, I only need to enlighten the kidneys, spleen, liver, and lungs, and it will be a matter of course to reach the eighth level.
"
...
People are in high spirits during happy events. Chu Chen smiled all the way into the Ghost and God Department, and greeted everyone he saw with a smile.
Colleagues in the Department of Ghosts and Gods thought that Chu Chen was proud of his new appointment, and no one was surprised, so they all greeted him and expressed their goodwill.
After being promoted to Immortal Official, Chu Chen's working style changed.
Instead of waiting to arrange errands, he discussed the entire errand arrangement of the Ghosts and Gods Division with Master Xu Ping and the other three deputy governors.
Although he has little qualifications, weak strength, and does not have much say, he is still one of the talkers of ghosts and gods, and he must be present.
His master, Taoist Master Xu Ping, told him many times that he did not dare to be careless.
In the meeting hall, Taoist priest Xu Ping glanced at his apprentice in surprise.
"Why did you come so early and didn't take advantage of the sun today?"
Taoist Master Xu Ping's main practice is no longer [Hunyuan Qi Gathering and Form Refining], and there is no need to collect the sun's energy every day, so he came to the Ghosts and Gods Division earlier than Chu Chen.
Chu Chen smiled and said: "Master, take a closer look!"
Taoist priest Xu Ping became interested, looked up and down, and said in surprise:
"The qi and blood are so strong, has your Xin Yuan Lord been transformed into a Yuan Ling?"
Chu Chen smiled and nodded: "Well, today I am gathering the energy of the sun for a week, and my blessed soul is in my heart, and I instantly transformed into a Yuanling."
"Great kindness!"
Taoist Master Xu Ping was quite happy and said: "This is how practice is. Once the opportunity comes, it will be a matter of course. Yes, yes, you practice hard. The practice method of our Lingshan School is not a Mahayana method, but when it comes to cultivating and refining the body,
To build the foundation of the physical body, our master’s practice method is definitely one of the best.”
"Um!"
Chu Chen nodded, this is indeed true.
[Hunyuan Qi Gathering and Form Refining] was derived from the Taoist scripture "Huang Ting Jing" by the founder. It has lofty intentions and great potential.
If someone can deduce and perfect the technique, it will definitely be an earth-shattering and supreme method that directly points to the great road.
While the master and apprentice were chatting, the three deputy governors, Taoist Qingyun, Zen Master Liaokong, and Huang Mei, entered the meeting hall one after another.
"What a happy event, you two, master and disciple, are so happy."
The three deputy governors made fun of Taoist Xu Ping and Chu Chen.
The master and apprentice smiled and didn't say much.
Soon, the five ghost talkers began to discuss matters and assign errands.
Compared with the previous work as an inspector at the grassroots level, running around and completing the errands assigned by the superiors, the work of the Ghost and God Secretary is much more complicated.
All the affairs of demons, demons and gods in the county are gathered in the small meeting hall. Five speakers are required to make arrangements one by one according to their priorities and give precise instructions.
When encountering demons of the eighth grade and above, more difficult cases will be handled by three deputy governors. If necessary, even the master, Taoist Master Xu Ping, will take action personally;
Cases involving possible encounters with ninth-grade demons and ghosts are left to the deputy head of Class Three;
It's a bit more difficult, but it won't involve any serious monsters and ghosts, so the case will be handled by experienced inspectors;
All ordinary cases of demons and demons are assigned to Classes A, B, and C, and each class is responsible for assigning errands...
...
In the meeting hall, Master Xu Ping and the three deputy governors were discussing endlessly, making assessments and instructions on various emergencies in the county. The whole process seemed very orderly.
Chu Chen came here to learn. He rarely spoke and focused on listening and learning throughout the process.
Usually, when Master Xu Ping and the three deputy governors explain something to him, he will draw inferences from one instance and put forward the doubts in his heart, and then get more detailed answers.
His immediate boss is his master. Because of the "White Bone Lady" case, the other three bosses have a very good impression of him and still owe him a favor.
As a result, everyone was willing to give Chu Chen advice and took good care of him.
The whole thing is that the old lead the new, and the younger people learn from the older people. The atmosphere in the hall is quite harmonious.
Chu Chen benefited a lot.
Not to mention anything else, at the end of the day, Chu Chen roughly understood the operating structure of the Ghosts and Gods Department, what the spokespersons of the Ghosts and Gods Department should do, how to handle cases, how to dispatch three groups of inspection envoys, etc.
After some discussion.
Director Xu Ping, the three deputy directors, and the chief deputy heads of the three classes all have corresponding errands.
However, in the end, there was still one case involving a ninth-level demon that had not been assigned.
Director Xu Ping looked at the case file carefully and said calmly: "Leave this case to Chu Chen."
Taoist Qingyun, Zen Master Liaokong, and Huang Mei were all stunned for a moment, a little surprised.
Chu Chen had just entered Taoism and entered the first level not long ago. He had no foundation at all. How could he deal with the ninth level demons? This was not child's play.
"Hey, Xu Duguan, this is not how Master Yan cultivates high-ranking disciples. Chu Chen has just entered the first level and has insufficient background. How can he be allowed to deal with ninth-level monsters? This case should be handled by me. At most, I can make one more trip.
thing."
Deputy Governor Huang Mei waved his hand and vetoed Taoist Xu Ping's decision.
Because his nephew had a good relationship with Chu Chen, he already favored Chu Chen. This time, because Chu Chen was promoted a step further, Huang Mei was more and more fond of Chu Chen.
Taoist Qingyun and Zen Master Liaokong also nodded and agreed with Huang Mei's statement.
Zen Master Liao Kong moved the beads and said, "It's too late to go too far. Chu Chen came from the Yi class of the poor monks. It's better for the poor monks to handle this case."
Taoist Qingyun waved his hand and said: "It's up to me to do it. Our Class A is the strongest. One more ninth-grade demon case is nothing."
When Taoist Xu Ping saw the three deputy governors speaking for his apprentice, he couldn't help but burst into laughter and said:
"Don't do anything for him. To tell you the truth, Chu Chen personally captured the ninth-grade bone demon that day and had nothing to do with my ghost pet!"
When the three deputy governors heard this, they all looked surprised and looked at Chu Chen, who was sitting in the corner with a harmless smile.
