Chronicles of Celestial Origins

After Tang Ning was promoted to the steward of the third palace, she now had a say in the selection of the deacons of the sect's departments and was able to cast a vote.

In addition, he is the deacon of the Intelligence Section, is familiar with the internal affairs of the department, and is a confidant of Luo Qingshui's family. The candidates he proposes will definitely gain Luo Qingshui's support.

Therefore, he has a decisive say in the selection of deacons for the Intelligence Section.

It can almost be said that he can completely influence the selection of deacons for the Intelligence Department, so Xu Wenze spent a lot of money in the hope of gaining Tang Ning's support.

As long as he supports it, his position as deacon is certain.

After he is promoted to deacon, his salary can be increased to six thousand spiritual stones per month, plus the overt, covert, public and private share.

In just two years, the extra spiritual stones will be worth the gold essence. This is a sure-profit deal.

Tangning put the wooden box into her storage bag and said slowly: "The internal situation in our department is a little complicated now, and you know this. I definitely want to leave. To be honest, the head of the department has come to talk to me. Now that we have said it, we may have to decide whether to go to Xuande Hall or Yuanyi Hall tomorrow."

"How about the selection of deacons for the ministry! Junior Brother Xu, you are qualified. If the master asks me, I will tell the truth. However, the selection of deacons for the ministry is selected by all the stewards of the three halls and three courtyards, not me. One person has the final say.”

"I know, thank you very much, Master Tang. I won't bother Master Tang to rest. I'll take my leave." Xu Wenze stood up and left.

Tang Ning turned her left hand and took out a silver-white sledgehammer from her storage bag. She got it when she killed the disciples of the Corpse Puppet Sect in the Jingyun Mountains.

At that time, I didn't have enough cultivation to break through the restrictions set by this magic weapon. Now that I have entered the golden elixir, I can finally try this thing.

When his consciousness entered, it was blocked by restrictions, just like there was an invisible net blocking the outside.

The sea of ​​consciousness in his Niwan Palace swayed, and the huge power of consciousness immediately penetrated the restriction.

Tangning's consciousness wandered around the inner space of the silver sledgehammer, and all she could see was a silvery white color, with lightning arcs shining from time to time inside.

Its interior is about five hundred feet in size, filled with violent thunder and lightning. In the middle is a high platform made of green light, with a faint shadow vaguely visible on the platform.

Tang Ning knew that this must be the mark of the divine consciousness left by the previous owner of the silver hammer. The light ball formed by the divine consciousness rushed forward, and upon impact, the phantom immediately collapsed.

He wandered around inside, finally leaving a trace of his consciousness on the high platform, and then retreated to Niwan Palace.

Tang Ning gently tapped the silver-white sledgehammer, and the sledgehammer suddenly burst into dazzling light, with lightning around it shining.

Magic weapons are different from spiritual weapons, and there are qualitative changes between the two. When it comes to the level of magic weapons, there are no longer distinctions between top-grade, top-grade, medium-grade, and low-grade artifacts.

The power of a magic weapon mainly depends on the materials and techniques of refining it. Generally speaking, the wider the internal space, the stronger the power it contains.

But that’s not all. The reason why magic weapons are different from spiritual weapons is that each magic weapon has its own functions or magical powers of certain attributes. The most common ones are of course the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Like this silver sledgehammer, it is a natural weapon. With thunder properties.

In other words, when this hammer is used, it can be equipped with magical powers of thunder attribute.

Many magic weapons have various incredible functions, which is also an important indicator for judging the power of magic weapons.

Above the magic weapon is the spiritual treasure. As the name suggests, it is the magic weapon that produces spirituality.

Once the magic weapon becomes spiritual, its power will immediately reach a higher level. The magic weapon does not need to be controlled by a monk. As long as the owner's mind moves, they will automatically attack and defend, just like spiritual beasts.

Tang Ning waved her hand and put her sword to the test. In an instant, two feet-long lightning bolts shot out from the silver hammer, causing the stone wall to collapse.

He put away the silver hammer and nodded with satisfaction. The price of a magic weapon was at least three to four hundred thousand spirit stones. He had just been promoted to the golden elixir, so this magic weapon was quite handy.

Over the years, he has saved some spiritual stones, but the expenses have not been small. Now he still has about 500,000 spiritual stones.

If you spend more spiritual stones to buy magic weapons, you will indeed be a little short of money.

Tang Ning sat cross-legged and rested for the night.

Early the next morning, he opened his eyes, left the cave, turned into light and walked, and not long after, he arrived at Qianxing Hall.

There was no one inside. Tang Ning took her seat at the end on the left. After waiting for about half an hour, a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes strode in. It was Yin Qingyuan, the master of the Secret Academy.

"Junior brother Tang, congratulations! Entering the golden elixir will bring you great hope. I have said that in recent years, you are the only one in the sect who has the most strength to attack the golden elixir, and it has come true today."

"Thanks to the sect, I succeeded by luck."

"Junior Brother Tang, why should you be too modest? You and I both know that golden elixir cannot be condensed by luck alone. The headmaster summoned us here today to discuss matters, presumably for your promotion to golden elixir."

The two chatted for a while, and then another tall and muscular man walked in, it was Zhuang Xingan. Immediately afterwards, Shi Mingsui and Tong Quan'an also arrived one after another and took their seats.

About a quarter of an hour later, Luo Qingshui came in from the outside, walked to the main seat and sat down and said: "Everyone is here. The reason why I called all the junior brothers here today is to promote Tang Ning to Jindan from the Intelligence Department. What do you junior fellow apprentices think of him taking up the position of steward of Yuan Yidian?"

There are currently eight Jindan monks in the sect, namely Peng Wanli, Jiang Yuhuan, Cheng Shuimin, Yin Qingyuan, Zhuang Xingqian, Tong Quan'an, Shi Mingsui, and Luo Qingshui.

Among them, Peng Wanli, Jiang Yuhuan, and Cheng Shuimin went to Yingxia Mountain to garrison, so these five were the only ones left to guard the sect.

Ten years ago, when the former headmaster Wei Xuande passed away, Peng Wanli took over from him to guard the Yingxia Mountain camp.

Because Gai broke through the bottleneck and advanced to the late Jindan period, such a person with advanced cultivation was needed on the front line, so he replaced Wei Xuande.

No one had any objections, and Luo Qingshui continued: "Since all the junior brothers agree, from now on, Tang Ning from the Intelligence Department will be officially appointed as the steward of Yuan Yidian, responsible for the sect's finances."

"Yes." Tangning responded.

"Also, for the position of deacon of the Intelligence Section, who do you think is more suitable to succeed? But it doesn't matter. You have been in the Intelligence Section for many years and are familiar with internal affairs. You can tell me and all the junior brothers for reference."

Tang Ning said: "The situation among the disciples in the Information Department is a little complicated now. Logically speaking, the position of deacon should be held by monks in the late stage of foundation establishment."

"There is indeed a late-stage foundation-building cultivator in the department. Her name is Xu Qingwan. She is a casual cultivator from the former Silver Fox Intelligence Station. Thirty years ago, she was recruited into the sect under an exception. She had never served in the sect before, until five years ago. After reaching the advanced stage of foundation building, he was transferred back to the sect and was stationed at Yingxia Mountain. He lacked experience in handling departmental affairs."

"There are two middle-stage foundation-building monks left, namely Inspector Xu Wenze and Steward Zhao Liheng. While I was guarding Tianshui Lake, all departmental affairs were handled by Xu Wenze with full authority."

Luo Qingshui said: "Xu Qingwan joined the sect as a middle-aged man and is not familiar with the affairs of the Intelligence Department, so he is not suitable to serve as a deacon."

Tang Ning said: "I think so too. I propose that Xu Wenze be appointed as the deacon of the department and Zhao Liheng be promoted to the supervisor."

Shi Mingsui said: "I agree that Xu Wenze will serve as the deacon of the Intelligence Section. As for the supervisor! I don't think it is necessary to be promoted from the management of the Intelligence Section."

Luo Qingshui nodded: "Junior Brother Yin, what do you mean?"

Yin Qingyuan said: "I agree with Palace Master Shi. Previously, Xu Wenze was in charge of the affairs of the Intelligence Department and also served as supervisor. I think it is not necessary to determine the supervisor so quickly. We can discuss it further."

Luo Qingshui said: "In that case, the position of inspector of the Intelligence Department will be determined later, and Xu Wenze will be promoted to deacon. Junior Brother Yin, you can announce the appointment later!"

"Yes." Yin Qingyuan responded.

Luo Qingshui said: "Who should be in charge of defense at Tianshui Lake? Do you junior fellow apprentices have any suitable candidates?"

Shi Ming Sui said: "I recommend one person, Chen Dake from the Department of Liaison, for this post."

"What do you junior fellow apprentices think?"

Tang Ning said: "I agree with Chen Da to be the director of Tianshui Lake."

Chen Da is very loyal to the sect and has good strength. He is definitely qualified and capable to defend Tianshui Lake. There is no need to oppose for the sake of opposition.

The other people did not express any objection. Luo Qingshui said: "Then let Chen Da go to Tianshui Lake and take charge of the defense work! If you junior brothers have nothing else to do, this discussion ends here."

Everyone stood up and left. Luo Qingshui said, "Tangning, please wait a moment."

Tang Ning then sat back down. After everyone left, Luo Qingshui said, "It's Junior Brother Peng's wish to let you go to Yuanyi Palace as a steward. Yesterday, the sect made contact with the Yingxia Mountain Camp through the sound transmission array. After notifying you of your promotion to Jindan, Junior Brother Peng expressed that he wants you to take up a position in Yuan Yidian to be in charge of the sect’s finances.”

"You have done a good job in reforming the financial system in the Intelligence Department. Junior Brother Peng's original intention is to make you responsible for the financial reform of the entire sect."

"I originally wanted you to go to Xuande Hall. Junior Brother Tong is getting old and his life is short. If you go to Xuande Hall, you can take over his position in the future. But since Junior Brother Peng has spoken, let's go to Yuanyi Hall! "

Tang Ning asked, "When will I take up my post at Yuan Yidian?"

"Wait for now! Junior Brother Peng will come back in a few days, and he will take you to take up the post at that time. You don't know the situation in Yuan Yidian, and you need him to talk to you in detail."

Tang Ning nodded, said goodbye, left the main hall, and returned to the Zhongzhi Peak Cave Mansion, where she saw a figure standing outside the thick fog, it was Zhao Liheng.
