I'm an immortal in heaven

Dongsheng Shenzhou, Dongtian blessed land, Zhangyan Mountain.

Dan Qingzi is teaching scriptures and teaching to his disciples, enlightening and passing on the Dharma. As a golden immortal monk, he has neither established a sect nor inherited from a teacher.

However, he is still a Taoist disciple, because he entered the Tao by the method of the Taoist great virtue "Zhong Huang Laoxian".

Although there is no direct apprenticeship to Huang Laoxian, whoever you follow, you are his disciple, and you are a member of this religion. This is a rigid rule, unless you openly declare that you have joined Buddhism or Xuanjiao.

As a Taoist disciple, the Nanzhan Buzhou War seems to have nothing to do with him, and there has been no legal order to announce that he will go to Nanzhan Buzhou to participate in the war.

However, Dan Qingzi is still preparing all the time. As long as there is an edict, he will immediately go to Nanzhan Buzhou to have a "friendly" discussion on Buddhism and Xuanjiao.

However, after all, Dan Qingzi did not wait for the edict from the Taoist sect, but the edict from Taixuandu Province.

"Is Danqingzi here?" A deep voice came from outside the mountain, startling Danqingzi and his disciples.

At this time, the boy next to Dan Qingzi stood up and said, "Master, I'll go and have a look."

Dan Qingzi nodded, and the boy immediately turned around and walked out of the cave.

Not long after, the boy came back in a hurry and bowed to Dan Qingzi: "Master, the person who came here claimed to be the Great Spirit Officer of the Taixuandu Province in the Heavenly Court, and the Grand Director of the Taixuandu Province issued a big move, and ordered the master to go to receive the imperial edict." .”

Hearing this, Dan Qingzi's expression froze, and he asked, "Can he explain why he came here?"

"No." The boy shook his head.

Dan Qingzi immediately got up and straightened his Taoist robe, and then said to the group of disciples: "You wait here to sit quietly and study the Dharma, and come as you go as a teacher."

All the disciples responded respectfully, "Yes, Master."

Then Dan Qingzi led the boy to fly out of the cave on Qingyun, and soon saw the fairy official wearing a first-grade crimson official robe, with hundreds of heavenly soldiers lined up beside him, and possessed the Taoism of Taiyi Xuanxian on the top of the peak.

Dan Qingzi immediately stepped forward to pay his respects and said, "Poverty Dan Qingzi, I have met the God."

The fairy official nodded, and then said to Dan Qingzi: "I am Huang Zhi, the great spirit official of the Taixuandu Province, and I am here to announce that you will go to the Taixuandu Province to accept the assessment."

"Assessment?" Dan Qingzi was a little dazed, and asked Huang Zhi: "Dare to ask God, what is the assessment?"

Huang Zhi said: "Immortal official assessment." After speaking, Huang Zhi said to Dan Qingzi: "Fellow Taoist, prepare quickly, and then follow me to Taixuandu Province."

Dan Qingzi was still in a daze, why did he suddenly have to go to Taixuandu Province for the Immortal Official Examination?And I never had the idea of ​​being a fairy official.

Huang Zhi saw that Dan Qingzi was still hesitant, so he sent the edict directly to Dan Qingzi and said, "Fellow Taoist, you will know when you receive the edict."

When Dan Qingzi heard the words, he immediately reached out to take the edict and read it, and he couldn't help being surprised.

There are four Dharma names signed on this edict, the top Dharma name is: 'Gouchen Shanggong Emperor', followed by: 'Dongji Qinghua Emperor' and 'Zhaodao Hezhen Dongling Emperor'.

Although the last dharma name was far inferior to the first four, it also made Dan Qingzi's complexion slightly changed. There were only two extremely short words: 'Fang Jian'.

If someone asked Danqingzi Fangjian more than 200 years ago?Dan Qingzi will most likely be puzzled for a moment, and then ask back: "Fang Jian, who is that?"

But now if you don't know who Fang Jian is, then Dan Qingzi can only give you some advice: Fellow Daoist, you should stop practicing in the Great World of Jambudha.

Dan Qingzi knew that the Heavenly Court and the Daoist sect merged, and also knew that the "Zhaodao Hezhen Dongling Great Emperor" was the "Dongling Daoist", one of the four great Daoists in the past.

But he didn't know about Fang Jian's appointment as the director of Taixuandu Province, so he was so surprised when he saw the name.

It's just that Dan Qingzi quickly realized that since the name of Emperor Dongling was included in the edict, it meant that the Taoist saints had already discussed this matter with the Heavenly Court, so he had to go to the assessment, unless he said he was not a Taoist disciple.

"Please wait for a while, the poor Taoist will go to prepare." Dan Qingzi said to Huang Zhi.

Huang Zhi nodded and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, hurry up."

Dan Qingzi also nodded, and then returned to the cave with the boy.

Knowing that their master is going to participate in the assessment of the Heavenly Court Immortal Officials, the disciples are surprised and curious. After all, the current Heavenly Court is a real "big" backer. shade?

So after Danqingzi arranged everything after he left, all the disciples sent Danqing out of the cave in person, and gave Danqingzi all kinds of auspicious words, which made Danqingzi dumbfounded.

Then Dan Qingzi followed Huang Zhi all the way up to the 36th heaven, entered the East Heaven Gate, and went straight to Taixuandu Province.

Dan Qingzi, who had just entered the Heavenly Court, was still a little nervous and restrained, but there were no obstacles along the way, and he arrived in Taixuandu Province smoothly.

When Dan Qingzi came to the hall specially arranged by Fang Jian for their assessment, Dan Qingzi realized that he was not alone here.

In this vast and huge hall, there are twenty jade cases, and there is a distance of at least two feet between each jade case.

Among them, there are more than a dozen jade tables with people sitting on them, and they are all golden immortal monks in Taoist robes.

"Fellow Daoist, you can choose a place to sit, and the assessment will begin when everyone is ready." Huang Zhi said to Dan Qingzi.

Dan Qingzi nodded, and then asked: "Are all these fellow Taoists here to participate in the assessment?"

"That's right." Huang Zhi said, "They are all Taoist Golden Immortal monks from the three major continents. There are a total of 20 people here to participate in the assessment."

"Oh, thank you Great Spirit Officer for letting me know." Dan Qingzi cupped his hands and thanked.

Huang Zhi waved his hand, then Dan Qingzi found a place, and then sat down cross-legged in front of the jade case.

At this time, he looked at the dozen or so comrades who were not far away, and they were also looking at Dan Qingzi, and bowed to him.

Seeing this, Dan Qingzi hurriedly bowed his head to return the gift, and then sat cross-legged in the hall, quietly waiting for the start of the assessment.

In the Hall of Martial Heroes, Fang Jian was looking at the list of Taoist monks in his hand for the immortal official assessment.

"These lists are all taken from the Ministry of Leisure, and the Ministry of Leisure personally screens monks with outstanding merits and virtues in the Taoist sect." Qu Daoping, the provincial director of Taixuandu, said to Fangjian.

Fang Jian asked, "Is everyone here?"

Qu Daoping said: "There are still three people left."

"What happened to these three people?" Fang Jian asked.

Qu Daoping said with a smile: "Two people have gone out to find the immortal medicine, which is more difficult to find, and one is in retreat. The fairy official who went to announce the edict has asked his boy to wake it up, but I don't know if it succeeded or not."

Fang Jian said: "You pass on my order and tell the two immortal officials in front that if you find monks who have gone out to search for immortal medicines, tell them to come and take part in the assessment immediately, regardless of whether they pass or not, the immortal medicines they seek will be bestowed by the heaven. As for the closed one, if you really can’t wake it up, forget it, don’t force it.”

When Qu Daoping heard the words, he immediately bowed in response and said, "I will abide by the decree of the law."

After another hour, the two monks who went out to search for medicine finally arrived in Taixuandu Province, but the monk who was in retreat was not awakened, so Fang Jian also asked the immortal official who went to announce the edict to withdraw.

Therefore, a total of 19 Taoist monks participated in the assessment, and Fang Jian was in charge of the assessment, and Fang Jian even came up with the test questions.

Dan Qingzi sat in the hall for an hour, and as a melodious sound of jade ringing resounded through the hall, Dan Qingzi turned his head and looked around, only to see a majestic figure, awe-inspiring, wearing a Lingxiao jade belt robe, wearing a jade-like robe on his head. The young immortal official with the lotus crown of the Qing Dynasty walked into the main hall surrounded by a group of first-rank immortal officials, and went straight to the top of the main hall.

When the young immortal official turned around, Qu Daoping announced immediately: "According to the decree of Emperor Gouchen Shanggong, Emperor Dongji Qinghua, and Emperor Zhaodao Hezhen Dongling, the meritorious deeds of being promoted to Taoism are luxuriant, and the great achievements are obvious." Those who act as first-rank immortal officials in the Heavenly Court, and the evaluation of immortal officials is fully responsible for the evaluation of immortal officials, just like a law."

Tier [-] Immortal Official!
All the Taoist monks present were stunned. They thought that the assessment was to select ordinary immortal officials, but they didn't expect that they would be first-rank immortal officials.

Dan Qingzi was also very surprised, first-rank immortal official, let's not talk about the weight for the time being, but it can be said to be a 'high position', because in the next step, he will go to the Dongshen Hall to practice, and he will be able to hear the preaching of the Supreme Lord.

Taishang Laojun!That is the belief of Taoist disciples, not to mention that there are many famous Taoist true kings and great virtues in Dongshentang.Not to mention authority or status, just for this point, they have to do this first-rank immortal official!
After Qu Daoping made the announcement, Dan Qingzi and the others also stood up immediately, and bowed to the young immortal official Jishou, "My respects to Daoist Hongqing."

Fang Jian cupped his hands to return the salute, and then said to the crowd: "Friends, please sit down."

Dan Qingzi and the others thanked again, and then sat down cross-legged.

Immediately afterwards, I heard Fang Jian say: "Dear fellow Taoists are here, the edict has already made it very clear, so I won't talk nonsense here."

After finishing speaking, Fang Jian raised his hand and said, "Send the scroll."

The next moment, the first-rank immortal officials of the Hall of Martial Heroes personally handed out the jade scrolls filled with examination questions. When Dan Qingzi received the jade scrolls, he couldn't help being surprised. The jade scrolls were not simple. With the surging mana above it, the person who edited this examination paper must have spent a lot of effort.

But when Dan Qingzi unfolded the jade scroll and looked at the examination questions above with his spiritual thoughts and eyes, he was immediately stunned.

What... what kind of exam question is this?Shouldn't it be a test of Taoism, magic power, and the realm of scriptures?
Dan Qingzi turned his head and glanced around, and found that other fellows were as surprised as he was. Dan Qingzi withdrew his gaze and landed on the examination paper again. The years of imperial examinations.

It turns out that the end of cultivation is the exam?
