The Star God sat high on the cloud bed in the hall, looking at the two people in the hall. The white Star God robe stretched out, and starlight condensed in the palm of his hand, and a golden scroll appeared.
Taibai Xingjun looked at the golden scroll, flipping it up and down, but did not see the names of the two people in front of him.
"You two are not even on the immortal list. How did you two set foot on this immortal road and ascend to the upper realm?"
"The two of us are here with the Immortal Order!"
Zhang Heming took out the Immortal Order again. The golden immortal light order immediately attracted the attention of all the immortal officials in the hall. All the gods lowered their heads to look at it. Even the gods in the caves and heavens in the upper realm had never seen such a fairy treasure.
When Taibai Xingjun stretched out his hand, he saw the golden fairy order fall into his hand, and then he pressed it into the fairy record. The names of Chang De and Zhang Heming immediately appeared on the golden scroll.
Taibai Xingjun then nodded with satisfaction, a hint of relief showing on his face.
"I am Taibai Star Lord of the Heavenly Court. I am here to guard the road to immortality by the order of the Heavenly Court! I will register the immortals and gods who ascend to the upper realm into the immortal register!"
"You two are the first to set foot on this road to immortality and ascend to the upper realm. Although your fate is not over yet, with this order of immortality, you can also be listed in the immortal register!"
Chang De and Zhang Heming both bowed and saluted. Chang De was the first to step forward, unable to hold back. “As a little god in the lower realm, I hope that the Star Lord can point out a clear path for the two of us to seek a position as an immortal god in the upper realm.”
Zhang Heming also bowed and said, "Since the world reopened and all things revived, hundreds of millions of practitioners in the world have been pursuing this path to immortality. The two of us have no way to achieve enlightenment, and we don't know where the road ahead is."
"Today I am finally able to ascend to the upper realm with the Ascension Order, just to ask the Star Lord to tell us, this divine path has come this far, where should we go next?"
Taibai Star Lord looked at all the immortal officials and divine clerks in the hall, and everyone laughed together.
A priest in a scarlet robe on the left said, "You two have already entered the realm of gods. Once the calamity is complete, you will become true gods. Even in my entire Taibai Star Mansion, I can't find many people who have reached your level of cultivation."
"Coming here means entering the gate of immortals and gods. The road to immortality is the road to becoming an immortal. No matter if you are an immortal or a god, there is a place for you in this world."
Taibai Xingjun picked up the golden scroll of immortal records and shook it to see that it not only showed the origins and past life stories of Chang De and Zhang Heming, but also a list of their merits and demerits, all of their virtues and sins were written on it.
"You two are both people from the cave heaven that was lost in the outer space. You have done great deeds in the human world. You have been in the underworld for nearly a thousand years, which can be considered as remarkable merit."
"You two are listed in the immortal records, and your merits are outstanding. You can stay in the Taibai Star Mansion in the upper realm to practice meditation and wait for the calamity to be fulfilled. I can arrange a god position for you two."
When Chang De and Zhang Heming heard what Taibai Xingjun said, they, the two people who were lost in the cave heaven outside the sky, looked at each other with surprise in their eyes. They had not left the mountain and sea world for a long time. Although they knew about the outside world, they were not aware of it all. Hearing his words at this moment, it seemed that there were countless secrets.
But the look of surprise on their faces had not yet disappeared, and they were immediately attracted by the next words of Taibai Star Lord. Compared with that secret, the position of God in the upper realm was naturally more important, as it was related to their enlightenment and future prospects.
The two were extremely grateful for receiving such affirmation and assurance from Taibai Star Lord, and they bowed in greeting.
"Thank you, Star Lord!"
"Thank you, Star Lord!"
Taibai Star Lord, whose hair and beard were all white, but whose face was still that of a young man, did not care about these etiquettes: "No need to thank me! This Star Lord has been ordered to guard the road to immortality, guide all the immortals and gods who ascended to the upper realm, and register them in the immortal register. This is also part of my job."
Chang De and Zhang Heming then asked, "I wonder what kind of divine position we can take on in the upper realm!"
Taibai Xingjun pondered for a moment and then explained in detail the differences between the divine positions and duties in the upper realm.
"The world is divided into three realms, and the living beings in the world are divided into six paths of reincarnation. Of course, the gods and immortals are also divided into different levels."
"The most honorable and distinguished among them are naturally the Emperor of Heaven and the Son of Heaven. In addition, there are four gods who assist the Emperor of Heaven, the Four Imperial Emperors, who are in charge of all living beings in the universe, and the cycle of life and death in heaven."
After saying this, all the immortal officials and divine clerks in Changgeng Palace showed expressions of admiration and admiration. For such a lofty immortal god who ruled over the three realms, even if they only heard the name and title, no one could help but feel a shocking and ancient feeling, and a longing from the bottom of their hearts.
Only when gods can achieve this can they be said to have truly reached the pinnacle and be said to be high above, looking down on everything.
The two of His Highness were naturally no different. However, after taking a look at the two, Taibai Xingjun said, "But this kind of godhood has its own destiny. Even if a god fell in the last catastrophe, he will return in this life."
"Next is the God of Heaven. The God of Heaven is naturally the chief officer of each department of the Heavenly Court and controls everything in the world. However, the Heavenly Court has not yet been officially opened, so it is naturally impossible for anyone to directly ascend to the Heavenly Court and become the God of the Heavenly Court."
"The Supreme Gods mainly refer to the star gods of the 365 main stars in the celestial sphere, the star lords of the heavenly court, and some celestial officials of the various departments of the heavenly court. It is generally impossible to confer such titles directly. Most of them are promoted through assessment among the many gods in the heavenly court!"
"Of course there are some special ones. Either they have done tremendous merits and received special titles from the Heavenly Court, or they have inherited the Heavenly Court's divine edict and legacy from the previous generation of gods and temporarily took over the position of Star Lord. Once their merits are fulfilled, they will naturally become Star Lords. This can only happen when there are currently a large number of vacant Star Lord positions."
Taibai Xingjun looked at the two of them and said, "Although your merits are remarkable, you are still a long way from becoming a lower god, let alone a higher god. Do you have any divine decrees from the ancient Xingjun Heavenly Court?"
Chang De and Zhang Heming naturally thought of the last time that Tai Sui Xingjun had struck lucky. At this moment, they were so envious that they were speechless and shook their heads with deep emotion.
"The lower gods refer to the star gods other than the 365 main stars in the celestial sphere, the emperors of the underworld, and the lords of the four seas in the mortal world."
"The lowest tier are naturally the lesser gods who are subordinate to the various star gods, the lower-level gods of the various departments of the Heavenly Court. For example, my Taibai Star Palace has several gods who assist Taibai Star Lord, in charge of the wealth of the world, the immortal records of the road to heaven, and so on."
Needless to say, the Shinto system is no longer of the same level as the gods. The gods of the earth, the gods of the underworld, or the immortal officials and clerks in some of the immortals' mansions refer to this type. After all, even if they are immortals in heaven, it is impossible for them to replace the immortal officials and clerks working under them with gods.
Even the lesser gods are extremely noble, and they have ascended from the lower realms step by step through hardships.
"You two have more than enough merit to become a minor god in the upper realm. If you wish, you can even stay in my Taibai Star Palace."
Chang De and Zhang Heming then realized that the little gods they had called themselves before were actually exaggerating. In their current situation, they were not even considered little gods, and the two felt a little discouraged.
After trying every possible means and practicing for thousands of years to ascend to the upper realm, they only obtained such a low-ranking god. Naturally, they were not satisfied.
Taibai Xingjun seemed to understand what the two meant: "If you don't want to be a minor god, and want to seek the position of one of the many stars in the heaven, it's not impossible, but I'm afraid you two can only descend to the mortal world again to accumulate merits."
Chang De and Zhang Heming looked at each other and felt that there was something interesting going on: "Please give us some advice, Star Lord!"
"The Lord of the Four Seas in the Lower Realm is about to be born! If the two of you go down to the lower realm to facilitate this event, you can naturally accumulate merits and be more than qualified to become a Star God!"
The two men could be considered as arrogant and proud people. They had already expected that the position of Star God could not be obtained by begging, but they still wanted to fight for the title of Star God.
The two of them immediately said, "Our own calamities have not yet been completed. Perhaps we should go down to the lower world to experience some training and perfect ourselves. Then we can come back to bother the Star Lord!"
"Then I look forward to your visit to my Taibai Star Mansion again!"
Taibai Star Lord waved his hand, and a ray of starlight swept around the fairy palace. The two of them disappeared into the star palace in the upper realm and turned into light that fell into the lower realm.
Chang De and Zhang Heming returned again after leaving the world of the living for thousands of years.
However, this time, the two were no longer ordinary cultivators, nor were they ordinary gods of the underworld. The moment their names were listed in the immortal records, the two of them left the underworld system.
Now both of them have been included in the immortal register. Although they do not have the status of a god yet, they can be regarded as candidate gods waiting to obtain the status of a god.
