If the Zhao Hua Master can borrow the power of the Path of Heaven and Earth, then the Primordial Spirit True Monarch itself becomes a fragment of the Heaven and Earth Dao Laws.
It embodies the Heavenly Might.
However, Primordial Spirit True Monarchs clearly differ in strength.
After achieving Primordial Spirit Unity, the number, strength, and fusion of the laws one masters can also vary.
This is like the fish born in a lake.
After achieving Primordial Spirit Unity, some are naturally small fish, shrimp, or carp and bream in the lake, but some, with strong foundations, are naturally whales, flood dragons, or even become the lake's True Dragon.
Zhang Jian slightly perceived the vast oscillations of the Sheji Dao Laws around him, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
Using the Sheji Emperor's Primordial Spirit as the foundation, his current Returning to Void and Merging with Dao undoubtedly places him among the top existences in the world, with the power over Sheji Dao that far exceeds others' imaginations.
"Next is truly achieving immortality, becoming a god..."
Zhang Jian felt that becoming an immortal was not difficult for him.
But to achieve greater accomplishments required additional effort.
"To become an immortal, one must first condense one's own Immortal Dao Rules within this ocean of laws..."
Zhang Jian reflected quietly in his heart.
Only by condensing one's own Immortal Dao Rules can one break through the shackles of the ocean of laws, sublimating and transforming above it.
Becoming immortal marks the beginning of transcendence.
Zhang Jian recalled those Great Power Immortal Techniques.
Simultaneously, Zhang Jian's eyes lifted to look at the Imperial City below, his gaze reflecting the changes around it, and with a thought, he vanished from the Observatory Platform in a single step.
In the West Garden, Zhang Jian's figure emerged.
From afar, he saw the master and disciple in conversation and immediately walked into the West Garden.
"Emperor!"
Seeing Zhang Jian's arrival, Jingming Daoist quickly stood up, and Zhang Jian smiled slightly to indicate he need not be so formal.
Then Zhang Jian's gaze fell on the Dong Shen Ancestor, and he smiled slightly.
"I heard that Elder Dong Shen has entered the court, and I am overwhelmed with joy. However, due to cultivation, I was unable to break away and thus neglected the elder!"
The Dong Shen Ancestor laughed and said.
"Your Majesty overestimates me; the truth is that I didn't foresee that my Beichu and even the vast Daqian would ultimately conclude in Your Majesty's hands. I must admit, I was blind!"
A trace of a smile appeared on the corners of Zhang Jian's mouth as he sighed.
"It was the grand momentum of the world that chose me, just as I chose this land. It was merely destiny!"
His expression was serene.
In fact, even without the clamor of contention, he believed that he would eventually replace them in the future.
It was just a matter of time.
The Dragon Veins of Daqian and Beichu shattered in various struggles, merely accelerating this process.
It relieved him of some trouble.
But this kind of thing, in the eyes of outsiders, would probably make it seem like he orchestrated the situation behind the scenes, prompting the conflict that led to this outcome.
Of course, he indeed played a part in encouraging events along, but most was just taking advantage of circumstances.
He wasn't a secret manipulator from start to finish.
When he tried to be this manipulator, Daqian was already half-destroyed by his own faction before he really had to exert much effort.
Dong Shen Ancestor looked deeply at Zhang Jian for a moment and then said:
"Indeed, as the Cultivation Realm says, when Your Majesty rose, the Dragon Vein was already formed, and truly a True Dragon Emperor, naturally destined to unify the world and sit upon the throne of the Nine Nine Venerable!"
Zhang Jian said with a smile: "Elder Dong Shen, as a former State Preceptor, is insightful and possesses a heart for the people under heaven. Since my ascension, I have worked tirelessly, and the more I see, the more I feel the boundlessness of the world, and personal strength ultimately has its limits. I truly need high cultivators with a heart for the people, like you, elder, to assist me. Since you have entered the court this time, why not stay?"
"Back in those days, all the Destiny of the people nurtured you, although I cannot do the same, I can help you achieve the Celestial Immortal status, and ascend to the Celestial Palace in the future. Wouldn't that be wonderful!"
Zhang Jian cast his gaze on the Dong Shen Ancestor, sincerely extending the invitation.
The fortune, talent, and aptitude of the Dong Shen Ancestor are undeniable, having emerged from a mere Loose Cultivator and helped the Grand Ancestor of Daqian defeat Former Shu over five hundred years ago, stabilizing the country's fate for nearly five hundred years.
This ability surpasses most Primordial Spirit True Monarchs of the Immortal Sect Dao Lineage.
In essence, he has the bearing of becoming an immortal.
If he could convince him to stay, it wouldn't be impossible to cultivate a Celestial Immortal.
Of course, ability is secondary; Zhang Jian values more the Dong Shen Ancestor's character of seeing things to the end.
When Daqian crumbled, he indeed fought desperately for Daqian, risking both life and future.
Unlike the two National Guardian Masters of Beichu, who decisively plucked the fruit and left when Beichu was about to fall.
Upon hearing this, the Dong Shen Ancestor turned his gaze to Zhang Jian, his expression slightly changing. Zhang Jian exchanged a glance with Jingming Daoist beside him, and Jingming Daoist quickly said.
"Master, please agree to His Majesty's request. Without your guidance, we, the disciples, are like leaves adrift. Only you can lead our Dong Shen Temple to establish a millennia-long foundation!"
The Dong Shen Ancestor heard this, glanced at Jingming Daoist, and his eyes moved slightly.
In fact, before entering the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty, he had already used his influence to explore Great Xia's foundation.
His entry into the Great Xia territory was in part because he saw promise in the Great Xia Dynasty.
He had heard that on the day the Great Xia Dynasty declared its establishment with the Emperor's ascension, many high figures from the Tongshan Dao Lineage descended personally, repelling numerous cultivators from the Two Realms Region and the demon gods from the Barbaric Region.
The Tongshan Dao Lineage supports Great Xia.
Tongshan Dao Lineage is considered the Saint King Dao Lineage, with connections even in the Celestial Realm.
The fact that on the day of True Monarch Jue Ming's ascension to the Celestial Palace, he was directly appointed as the Great Spirit Official of Fortune shows this.
Being in the sky, the Tongshan Dao Lineage not only has people there but a profoundly deep connection; otherwise, it would be impossible to be granted the Immortal Position of the Great Spirit Official of Fortune, akin to a Middle-Level Immortal Official, just upon the day of ascension.
And even if he could withstand the current backlash from the world and smoothly achieve immortality.
Even if he succeeds in becoming an immortal with a Celestial Immortal Body, he might not necessarily be valued upon reaching the sky. Although he had received a Celestial Monarch of the Thunder Department's legacy in his youth, who knows if it would be acknowledged.
Seeing that Jingming Daoist earnestly implored repeatedly, the Dong Shen Ancestor seizes the opportunity and, without waiting for the Great Xia Emperor to invite again, says:
"Enough!"
He smiled bitterly and looked at Zhang Jian, saying.
"This old body, in its twilight years, remains esteemed by Your Majesty, so much that I am fearful and can only repay such grace by devoting all I have!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian laughed heartily and immediately helped the Dong Shen Ancestor up: "With the Ancestor's assistance, I shall have a Celestial Monarch of my own in Great Xia, and today I shall issue a decree, appointing you as Supreme Master of Truth and Imperial Tutor of the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, and also hold an Immortal Welcoming Banquet for the Ancestor to proclaim to the world!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Upon hearing this, the Dong Shen Ancestor bowed to accept the decree.
Zhang Jian helped the two sort their emotions, both master and disciple showing joy.
Although the Dong Shen Ancestor lacked the noble title from the former dynasty, more than the position of State Preceptor, the role of Imperial Tutor of the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace was also significant.
Currently, with the Saint King's Ascension, the position of Crown Prince's Grandmaster is not merely an honorary title but a real appointment.
Jingming Daoist was well aware of the weight Crown Prince Zhang Zhao held in the Great Xia Emperor's heart.
At this moment, the Dong Shen Ancestor also perceived that as the Great Xia Emperor personally decreed, a profound fate of purple and gold descended from the profound void, wrapping around his Life Plate, suppressing numerous black clouds of backlash rekindled by this destiny.
His Primordial Spirit Dao Heart felt a long-lost sense of ease, reconnecting with the Heaven and Earth Dao Laws.
Zhang Jian perceived this change, his eyes smiling slightly.
Compared to a bit of destiny, the entry of the Dong Shen Ancestor into the court finally provided the Great Xia Dynasty with a showcase-worthy National Guardian Powerhouse.
In the future, whether it is in attack or defense, he would have many more options.
Lightly stroking his beard, the Dong Shen Ancestor suddenly said: "Your Majesty, only upon my initial entry into the court am I entitled to such high status as Imperial Tutor of the Crown Prince, but Your Majesty's kindness is as bright as day and moon, and I am deeply grateful. I have a treasure willing to present to Your Majesty, which might enhance the Emperor's Fate!"
