Chapter 265: Ziwei Cave Heaven "Can I... get an advance?" Jiang Lin couldn't help but blink. In fact, Jiang Lin was mentally prepared for the fact that he would not be able to save much from his salary. Although the young director of the Treasury Department seemed to be praising Jiang Lin, what he said was correct. When practicing in the human world, one would reserve the Heavenly Talisman of the Heavenly Palace and start accumulating salaries, which would then be withdrawn all at once after ascending to heaven. This was not uncommon as a step towards promotion to immortality. At least this is the case for the Taoist masters that Jiang Lin knows. This is already a very common and routine procedure. The Taoist sect will never be stingy with their talented younger generations. But each of those Taoist masters has accumulated wealth for a long time, and they have also accumulated a lot of salaries from the Heavenly Court. But Jiang Lin was different. His path to becoming an immortal was too short and it didn’t take much time at all. This also resulted in the fact that the salary from heaven, which should have accumulated over a long period of time, was now almost gone.
What's more, with Jiang Lin's background and foundation, this amount of resources is not enough. Jiang Lin was originally worried and didn't know what to do, but now... "Of course you can get an advance!" The treasure house's young master Gu Ying was smiling happily. They all hang out in the Arctic Exorcism House, so of course they know that the core of the house is the Black Law Mage. To outsiders, the Black Law Mage is avoided as much as possible, but to other immortals and gods in the Arctic Exorcism House, there are not many opportunities to build a good relationship with the Black Law Mage or even do him favors. Although this won't make the Black Law Mage show even a little bit of mercy when you commit a crime, the Black Law Mage is also an immortal, and as a human being one must be able to socialize and have connections. Especially, he is the only Black Law Master who has attained enlightenment in the Black Law Division in the past two hundred years. Moreover, before this young master showed up, Master Deng had explicitly and implicitly said that he would no longer teach the Black Law, and even Tan Zhe was not able to learn it. Gu Ying would have to be crazy to turn down such a genius from the Arctic Exorcism Institute and such a free favor. "Don't worry, Brother Jiang." Gu Ying smiled and said, "There are old precedents for this kind of thing. After all, although the rules of my Beiji Quexie Academy are strict, we cannot say that we have delayed the path of our own genius." He took out a red pen with a smile, and wrote and drew on the notebook in his hand. He raised his hand and continued to smile: "That's not a matter of following the rules, but a lack of mind." It sounds easy, but as long as you see this young official writing and drawing on the notebook for a long time, you will know that this matter is not as simple as he said. That book is no simple thing. All the resources of the entire Arctic Exorcism Institute must be filed in the Treasury Department before they are specifically distributed. And that book records all the resources of the Treasury Department. "All right." After working for about a quarter of an hour, Gu Ying wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead, raised his head and smiled at Jiang Lin. That smile was full of the confidence of a professional. "I think that Fellow Daoist Jiang has a great foundation. According to the usual resource allocation for the highest level of geniuses in our academy, I have prepaid your salary for the next 500 years and exchanged it all for the North Star Immortal Qi." Jiang Lin's expression changed. Although he had never heard of the North Pole star immortal energy, he knew as soon as he heard it that it was closely related to the North Pole.
Coupled with Tan Ze's reminder before coming in, it is obvious that this North Pole star immortal energy is specifically used to give the cultivators of the North Pole lineage a solid foundation after they ascend to immortality, and as a step for promotion. "The immortal energy of the stars in the North Pole can only be condensed in the Purple Palace. It takes the starlight of the North Pole and combines it with the creation of the Purple Palace. To others, it is only slightly better than the ordinary Taiyi immortal energy, but for us in the North Pole lineage, there is nothing better than this." Gu Ying explained with a smile, and then said: "In fact, if it were anyone else, I would never advance 500 years of salary at once." "Because now the advance payment is available, taking you as an example, you can only advance your salary at the fifth rank. Even if you are promoted to a higher rank in the next five hundred years, there is no such thing as refunding or making up for the loss." "But it's different for you, Brother Jiang. It's extremely difficult for a Black Law Mage to advance to higher ranks. Five hundred years is not a long time." Gu Ying explained with a smile. Jiang Lin also nodded in agreement, but he felt a little absurd in his heart. Even if I count my two lifetimes, it would still be less than fifty years at most. Now I have extended it to five hundred years later. And judging from Gu Ying's tone, five hundred years is really not a long time for an immortal. For a moment, a sense of contrast spread in Jiang Lin's heart. However, Jiang Lin did not think much about it. For immortals, lifespan is something that does not need to be taken too seriously most of the time. Even the most ordinary immortal who has managed to survive can live for three thousand years. Not to mention someone like Jiang Lin, who has built a flawless immortal foundation. It would not be an exaggeration for him to roll over ten times on this basis. Moreover, becoming an immortal is not the end. After becoming an immortal, there are still many realms and many levels ahead. With each upgrade, lifespan would skyrocket, and it would not be too uncommon to even live as long as heaven and earth. "Fellow Daoist Jiang, follow me." Gu Ying waved at Jiang Lin and stomped his feet. Suddenly, the scene around them changed drastically. The originally dark world suddenly burst into countless lights. In just a short moment, the surroundings were filled with countless precious lights. Jiang Lin looked around and felt that he had very little experience. Most of the treasures here were things he had never seen or even heard of. "It has always been the rule of the Treasury Department that treasures cannot be shown to others, so as not to arouse unnecessary greed." Gu Ying explained with a smile: "Of course, for Daoist Jiang, this is not a rule." "All the things in this treasure house put together are not as good as the integrity of the Black Law Mage." Jiang Lin smiled and did not answer, but followed Gu Ying into the deepest part of the Treasury. "I actually have too much of the North Pole Star Qi in my inventory. After all, as long as this resource is from the North Pole system, there is nothing I don't need." As Gu Ying spoke, he pointed to a large vat. That’s right, an object that is as thick as ten people’s arms. It is more like a large round-mouthed pool than a large vat. What's inside is not water, but bits of stardust. It's like a pocket-sized sea of stars. Jiang Lin walked forward and was attracted by the stardust with just one perception.
"Hahaha." Gu Ying laughed, picked up a bit of stardust with a snap of his fingers, and pushed it in front of Jiang Lin. Jiang Lin did not hesitate and used the Ziwei method to absorb the stardust. As soon as the stardust entered the body and fell within the meridians, it turned into a ray of starry air. Then, after just a few moves, it was completely absorbed by Jiang Lin. Jiang Lin closed his eyes and sensed. In his perception, his foundation had improved a little bit, imperceptible. Although subtle, it is still noticeable, and... "There are no sequelae." Jiang Lin smacked his lips, a little amazed. This North Pole star immortal energy is indeed a priceless treasure for the North Pole series. "Of course there won't be any sequelae. This was created by Emperor Ziwei specifically for us, the younger generations." "May the Emperor live forever!" Gu Ying worshipped the North Pole sincerely, and Jiang Lin naturally followed suit. Then, Gu Ying stood up, took out a crystal ball, and dipped it into the big vat. Suddenly, the North Star immortal energy in the large vat began to gather towards the crystal ball. After the large jar of North Star immortal energy sank one foot visibly, the crystal ball spontaneously jumped up and was grabbed by Gu Ying, who then handed it to Jiang Lin. "The five hundred years of salary and incense of the fifth-rank mage of the Black Law Department of the North Pole Exorcism Institute have all been exchanged for the North Pole Star Immortal Qi. The amount is sufficient. Please inspect it, Master." Gu Ying said in a businesslike manner. Jiang Lin didn't even look at it, he just put it away, bowed and smiled, "This is my first time to take up my post in our academy, I am totally clueless, I would rather not bother you two masters, can Brother Gu point me to a place for retreat?" "Hahahaha! It's a small matter!" Gu Ying laughed loudly. Jiang Lin gave him enough face. Jiang Lin's way of addressing him also changed quietly. "Fellow Taoist, come with me." After saying that, Gu Ying pulled Jiang Lin's sleeve and walked out of the Treasury. After greeting Tan Ze who was guarding the door and hearing "I'll wait for you to come out", Jiang Lin followed Gu Ying to the depths of the Arctic Exorcism Institute. Deep in this Arctic Exorcism House, it looks a bit desolate, with few people and a bit dilapidated. Jiang Lin was a little surprised. He obviously didn't expect that there was such a place in the Arctic Exorcism Hospital. "Our Arctic Exorcism Institute is located in the north of the Arctic. The Grand Marshal personally selected the site and supervised its construction." “And this place is the North Pole of our hospital.” Gu Ying smiled mysteriously at Jiang Lin and motioned Jiang Lin to look forward. Not far away, there was a small portal that looked inconspicuous, but after noticing it, his eyes could no longer accommodate anything else. "Fellow Taoist, please."
Seeing Jiang Lin staring at him intently, Gu Ying laughed and raised his hand to push Jiang Lin's shoulder. Jiang Lin was pushed to the front of the door, slowly raised his hand and pushed the door open. 'call! ' As soon as the door opened, a cold wind blew in, making Jiang Lin's clothes rustle. Although the wind is cold, it is not bad at all. Instead, it is refreshing, just like the cool air emitted by ice on a sunny day in the coldest days of winter, making people feel comfortable all over. Jiang Lin couldn't help but perk up and looked inside the door. All he saw was a vast expanse of white, as if the ground was covered with snowflakes, but Jiang Lin knew that it was not snow, but something else. He can't see clearly. "Fellow Daoist, just keep walking, the farther the better!" Gu Ying's voice came from behind. Jiang Lin nodded and stepped into the door. 'Bang! ' As soon as he walked in, the door behind him closed. Jiang Lin didn't even look at it, but just walked forward. When you step on it, it feels soft at first and then hard. It felt like snow when he stepped on it. Jiang Lin looked down and couldn't help but be amazed. This is not snow, but stardust. This is all... Stardust is not star fragments or any other waste. For stars, this object is the starlight itself condensed to the extreme, the starlight that turns from virtual to real. Because it has substance, it is called stardust. If one of them was thrown into the human world, it would be enough to make the cultivators fight over it. But here, the ground was covered with stardust, and Jiang Lin couldn't even see the edge... Jiang Lin resisted the urge to squat down, grab a handful and put it in his pocket. He took a deep breath and stepped forward. Since Gu Ying said that the farther we go, the better, let’s see what magical things this place has. Jiang Lin thought to himself, took a step forward, and then his expression changed. My body, with this step, became a little heavier, insignificant, but extremely clear. Bodybuilding? No, it's not that simple. This is strengthening oneself. really! Jiang Lin's eyes lit up. The land paved with countless stardust cannot be simple. This place is worthy of being hidden in the deepest part of the Arctic Exorcism House!
Jiang Lin felt the changes in himself and took one step after another, faster and faster. Finally, he even started running. Outside the portal. Gu Ying put his hands in his sleeves and looked at the door with a smile. And beside him, a Taoist priest appeared without anyone noticing. "Deacon Zuo, how far can Brother Jiang Daoist go?" Upon hearing this, Zuo Tongxuan said calmly, "Since its creation, 1,230 people have walked through the Purple Star Cave Heaven. The one who walked the furthest was the True Man Zi Yang who had just attained enlightenment. He was only 200 miles away from reaching the end." "As for Xuan Ying..." Zuo Tongxuan's expression changed slightly, and he said, "About, no less than this number." "Deacon, are you so optimistic?" Gu Ying asked with some surprise. "Ah." Zuo Tongxuan didn't say much, just nodded slightly and stared at the portal quietly. Above the portal, there is a ray of starlight. The light is now less than a foot long and is slowly rising. It looks like it can extend all the way from the bottom to the top of the portal. But from ancient times to the present, no one has been able to do it. The two of them stared quietly at the starlight, which rose relatively quickly at first, but then began to slowly slow down. Until the starlight was only two or three inches away from touching the top, it completely stopped moving. "The distance to the deepest point is less than 200 miles." Gu Ying exclaimed: "He has surpassed Master Zi Yang!" "very good." A rare smile appeared on Zuo Tongxuan's lips, and he turned around and was about to leave. Jiang Lin is the first person throughout history to reach this level in the Star Cave. Naturally, he has to share this good news with Wei Zu and his master Zi Yang Zhenren. There was nothing interesting to see next. It was nothing more than absorbing the immortal energy of the North Star and then coming out of seclusion for a period of time. Zuo Tongxuan was thinking this in his heart, when he suddenly heard a cry of "His mother's call". He turned around and saw Gu Ying with his eyes wide open, pointing at the door with trembling hands. "It's moving! It's moving again!" Zuo Tongxuan looked towards the door suddenly, and saw that the starlight, which had originally stagnated, suddenly burst out a little bit again.
"To go one step further, this is really...excellent!" The smile on Zuo Tongxuan's cold face was already obvious. However, the next moment, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, and Gu Ying also began to tremble. "arrive?" In the eyes of the two, the starlight suddenly jumped up and reached the top! 'boom! ! ’ Zuo Tongxuan's figure disappeared after an explosion. He didn't even have time to escape, but was so anxious that he rushed out directly with the strength of his physical body! Gu Ying didn't make any movement, just stared blankly at the portal. "Fellow Daoist Jiang...how did you do it?" Gu Ying muttered to himself, looking a little confused. He had been to the Starry Cave Heaven and knew how great the pressure would be as time went on. It was a consolidation of the body, soul, background, foundation and even the cause and effect level! The benefits are naturally countless, but the difficulty of each additional step also increases exponentially! "No, no, no, no!" Gu Ying suddenly slapped his forehead and hurriedly flipped through the booklet. "I miscalculated, I miscalculated!" Gu Ying took out a red pen and changed something very quickly. "This level of improvement in foundation is definitely not something that can be stopped by five hundred years of North Star Immortal Qi!" "We have to carry the tank over here!" Gu Ying had no time to worry about whether he would be blamed if the Treasury Department's North Star Immortal Qi was out of stock, nor did he have time to worry about what would happen to Jiang Lin after his grade was upgraded. Damn it! Nothing is more important than this Ziwei Star Cave that you can only enter once! Gu Ying closed the notebook with a "snap" and ran away like a leaping animal. When he came back, he was carrying the large jar filled with the North Star's immortal energy on his shoulders. And in front of the gate, there were already many people standing. Gu Ying couldn't help but stop. "Wei Tianjun, Deng Zhenren, and... the Grand Marshal!" (End of this chapter)
