Bagua Valley.
Three heavenly officials with three-foot-high crowns on their heads and black robes stood on wisps of black smoke, floating quietly in front of Chutian.
Right next to a heavenly official, a three-foot-square black cloud held a one-foot-long black jade seal. Countless complex patterns were looming on the surface of the jade seal, exuding a chilling power that made people shudder. pressure.
"Bagua Master Luo Buping, please tell me your birth and origins. And how did you get the Deadwood Divine Body without ascending?" Zhongzhong Tianguan, the head of the Examination Department of the Western Heavenly Court's Ministry of Officials, looked at Chu expressionlessly. God, slowly asked in a stern tone.
The Ministry of Personnel, Kao Gong Division, Kao Gong Division Chief, this is an important official in the third rank of the Western Heavenly Court.
Such a high-ranking official went to Wuliang Mountain in person just for the unknown casual cultivator "Bagua Master Luo Buping". It was actually Gongsun Langlang who spoke personally. Otherwise, how could the master of the examination department pay attention to Chu Tian? Sending a low-ranking minion here at will is enough to send Chu Tian away.
If not for Chu Tian's outstanding performance this time, blocking the Senluo Sword Formation alone in front of a group of distinguished guests, which greatly earned Gongsun Langlang face, Gongsun Langlang would not have spoken out in person for such a trivial matter.
In fact, Chu Tian's performance was really good - the Mingjiao clan was notoriously evil, and Gongsun Langlang's distinguished guests knew how powerful a hive with a diameter of 100,000 miles was. Being able to chop down a mother nest with one sword, one can imagine the power of the Senluo Sword Formation and the Senluo Sword Talisman.
A casual cultivator in Gongsun Langlang's territory was able to withstand such a sword formation and such sword talismans for such a long time, and was forced to wait until reinforcements arrived. This is enough to highlight the foundation of the Western Heavenly Court, and it also trampled the Mingjiao clan heavily. One kick.
Although the Canglan Mountain Mine Supervisory Office suffered heavy losses, Gongsun Langlang was probably secretly happy in his heart.
Chu Tian hurriedly took out the family tree of the Luo family, as well as a remaining Ascension Holy Fruit, as well as a token of the Luo family that could prove Luo Buping's origin, such as the original book of the family heirloom, such as the patriarch of the family. Identity tokens, such as the personal seal used for correspondence between family patriarchs, etc...
Seeing the Ascension Holy Fruit, Chu Tian clearly noticed that the eyes of the head of the examination department and the two subordinates beside him suddenly lit up, and a few divine lights flickered in their dark eyes. If it weren't for their identity and official duties, Chu Tian believes that the head of the examination department may have already taken action to snatch her body.
Something like the Ascension Holy Fruit is enough to avoid the supervision system of heaven and create an unknown powerful master.
The value of this unknown and secret power to any force is self-evident - this kind of secret master power can be used as a spy, a dead soldier, an assassin, and has many, many uses!
Chu Tian pretended to be ignorant and pointed at the Ascension Holy Fruit, and said "cautiously": "This thing was accidentally obtained by the villain in a deep mountain somewhere. I compared it with the records in the family heirlooms..."
Chu Tian raised his head and looked at the gleaming-eyed leader of the examination department, and said in a deep voice: "The thing I found is just an ordinary spiritual fruit. I have come all the way to help you. The villain has nothing to show for it, and I only have a wild fruit." Let the boss receive the wind and wash away the dust, and express my feelings."
The head of the examination department nodded, waved his sleeves, and the Ascension Holy Fruit disappeared silently.
His two subordinates blinked, lowered their heads slightly, and assumed a solemn posture while looking at their mouths, noses, and hearts. They have decided to completely forget what happened here and now.
A smile appeared on the cold and stiff face of the head of the examination department. He took out a thin case file from his sleeve and said calmly: "The records of the Luo family are detailed in the case file transferred by me from the Ministry of Household Affairs. Records. Back then, the Luo clan fought with their enemies in the northern heaven and were unfortunately defeated. There were indeed members of the direct lineage who escaped while protecting the family inheritance."
Pointing at Chu Tian, the head of the examination department smiled and said: "I heard that the Dead Wood Technique inherited by the Luo family is quite mysterious?"
Chu Tian smiled, took a deep breath, and with a "whoosh" sound, a hurricane arose from the ground. Dozens of horned hurricanes shot up tens of thousands of feet high. A green halo of light quickly spread out behind his head. Come, the blue light flows and the withered yellow lines appear rapidly in the vibrant nimbus. After just a few breaths, the entire nimbus turns into a lifeless withered yellow.
The meaning of withering between heaven and earth is strong. With Bagua Valley as the core, the mountains and forests with a radius of 100,000 miles suddenly dry up and wither. Countless flowers and trees instantly turn into dead branches and leaves. Strips of withered yellow torrents visible to the naked eye soar into the sky from these withered mountains and forests. Flying up, roaring across the void, continuously pouring into the withered yellow light wheel behind Chutian.
"Oh, yes, you have understood the Great Way of Wood to the extreme, and you have condensed the Treasure Wheel of Heavenly Dao. Very good, very good!" The head of the Examination Department praised unhurriedly: "And you can combine the Great Way of Wood with it. Infect the whole body with the power of withering... Your magical transformation is no longer weak."
Turning his head slightly, the head of the examination department said calmly to the subordinate on his left: "The emperor's explanation is to grant this official the authority. If Luo Buping can be reused, he will not hesitate to reward him generously."
The two subordinates showed almost identical smiles. Their chief officer had already accepted the Ascension Holy Fruit of the "Bagua Master Luo Buping" in front of him, and even used these rare treasures as bribes. This shows that Luo Buping has obtained Gained the appreciation of his own chief officer.
Who would be stupid enough to go against his immediate boss
The subordinate who was questioned smiled and said: "My lord, you are right. This Luo Buping has a pure origin and a clear origin. He is an indigenous family of my Western Heavenly Family. After the decline of his family, he did not forget to revive the family reputation and worked hard to cultivate. His current level of cultivation is truly commendable for a casual cultivator, which shows that he has a tough mind and is a useful talent."
Another subordinate hurriedly picked up the topic: "That Luohu traitor is so bold, and he has inherited the legacy of the fierce Senluo sword master. Even the nest of the Mingjiao clan was chopped open with one sword, which shows how ferocious his methods are... Mingjiao The entire clan has behaved badly, but only Luo Buping, holding up one arm to the sky, has protected the Mine Supervisor Yamen Zhouquan, and even more so has protected my face in the Western Heavenly Court!"
The two subordinates looked at each other and said in unison: "Such talent, such strength, and such loyalty should be rewarded heavily!"
The head of the examination department smiled and nodded. He casually flipped through the tokens that Chu Tian took out to prove his identity as the legitimate son of the Luo clan, and nodded: "Since the emperor has spoken, then naturally, I will follow the emperor's instructions. The highest reward will be given as instructed by the Master."
"Luo Buping has received the title!" The head of the examination department grabbed the black jade seal floating in front of him with one hand and shouted solemnly towards Chu Tian.
Chu Tian greeted the mother of Emperor Xitian in his heart and knelt down obediently.
"Luo Buping comes from a clean background, works hard, and has a character and talent that can be called a hero. This time you have made even more outstanding achievements, defending the dignity of our Western Heavenly Court and capturing the murderer. I respect the Heavenly Court's rules and designate you as the Sixth-Rank Upper Heavenly Governor. His official position... Wuliang Mountain God!"
