Chapter 1279 Two Elders
Ye Mengyao was no longer calm. She used her divine sense to observe Xu Changshou's cultivation level and found that it was shrouded in a fog and could not be seen clearly at all.
"Senior Brother Xu, how could this happen? Your cultivation level..."
"hehe!"
Xu Changshou smiled and said, "I have broken through to the Mahayana realm."
"What! You've broken through!"
Ye Mengyao was extremely surprised, never expecting that Xu Changshou could break through to the Mahayana realm.
It should be noted that back in the Canghai Sect, Xu Changshou's cultivation speed was not as fast as hers.
Even though her cultivation speed was later surpassed by Xu Changshou, Ye Mengyao did not believe that Xu Changshou had the ability to break through to the Mahayana realm.
They all entered the Donghua Immortal Sect as menial disciples. The reason why menial disciples are menial disciples is because their spiritual roots are limited, which does not allow them to break through to the Mahayana realm.
The limitations of spiritual roots are unsolvable.
Xu Changshou's breakthrough shattered Ye Mengyao's perception.
"Senior Brother Xu, you..."
"Mengyao!"
Xu Changshou interrupted Ye Mengyao with a smile, saying, "It's not right to call me Senior Brother Xu, you should call me Martial Uncle Xu."
"Xu, uh... yes, yes, disciple Ye Mengyao greets Martial Uncle Xu!"
Ye Mengyao then realized what was happening and respectfully bowed to Xu Changshou.
Although Xu Changshou's breakthrough made Ye Mengyao a little jealous, she was secretly delighted. After all, she and Xu Changshou were from the same sect, and Xu Changshou becoming a Mahayana cultivator could only benefit her.
"Let's go, take me to see Senior Sister Hua."
"Uncle Xu, please follow me!"
Ye Mengyao led Xu Changshou toward Hua San Niang's cultivation place.
Before they even reached Hua San Niang's dojo, Hua San Niang sensed Xu Chang Shou and greeted him with a smile.
When Hua San Niang saw Xu Chang Shou, she was completely stunned.
"Xu Changshou, you've made a breakthrough!"
"This humble brother greets Senior Sister Hua!"
Xu Changshou smiled and scanned Hua Sanniang with his divine sense, seeing that Hua Sanniang's cultivation level was at the early stage of the Mahayana stage.
"Junior Brother Xu, you're really something!"
Hua San Niang smiled and gave Xu Changshou a thumbs up. At this moment, Hua San Niang was even more convinced that Xu Changshou's identity was extraordinary.
From the time Xu Changshou entered the Sima Bureau until now, only a little over four thousand years have passed. In just four thousand years, Xu Changshou has cultivated from the early stage of the Void Refining Realm to the Mahayana Realm.
This cultivation speed is something that even many inner disciples cannot match.
"You flatter me, Senior Sister Hua!" Xu Changshou said modestly with a smile.
Xu Changshou glanced at Hua San Niang and asked, "Senior Sister Hua, I've just broken through. Will I continue working at the Sima Bureau?"
"Of course not!"
Hua San Niang shook her head and said, "You are now a cultivator at the Mahayana realm, and the Sima Bureau cannot tolerate you. Every breakthrough of a cultivator at the Mahayana realm is a major event for our Jumen Peak, and we must report it to Uncle Zhu."
“Our Sima Bureau is a small organization. The people under my jurisdiction are all menial disciples. No one has ever broken through to the Mahayana realm. I don’t know how to report it.”
"Here's what we'll do: I'll take you to the Thunder God Temple and hand you over to Uncle Zhu. As for how to settle you down, that's up to Uncle Zhu."
"Thank you for your trouble, Senior Sister Hua."
"Junior Brother Xu, please..."
Hua San Niang and Xu Chang Shou took to the air and flew towards the Thunder God Temple.
Soon, the two arrived at the entrance of the Temple of Thunder.
"Disciple Hua San Niang greets Martial Uncle Zhu!"
"What's the matter?"
Zhu Miaoshan's faint voice came from outside. At the same time, Xu Changshou felt a vast and boundless divine sense descend upon him.
"what?"
Zhu Miaoshan let out a soft "hmm" and then fell silent.
Hua San Niang respectfully said, "Junior Brother Xu has broken through to the Mahayana realm. I don't know how to settle him, so I brought this to you."
"Okay, you can go back now. Leave it to me."
"Yes!"
Hua San Niang left.
Zhu Miaoshan's calm voice came from inside the Thunder God Temple, saying, "Come in."
"Yes!"
Xu Changshou stepped into the Thunder God Temple, and upon seeing Zhu Miaoshan, he respectfully bowed and said, "Disciple greets Ancestor Zhu."
If Xu Changshou didn't have the identity of being Lei Zu's disciple, he should have addressed Zhu Miaoshan as his senior uncle. However, in reality, Xu Changshou and Zhu Miaoshan were of the same generation.
Xu Changshou didn't know how to address Zhu Miaoshan. If he called her "Senior Sister," Zhu Miaoshan might feel uncomfortable, so he simply called her "Ancestor Zhu."
"Ok!"
Zhu Miaoshan nodded slightly, not correcting Xu Changshou's form of address, and said, "I never expected that you, with a spiritual root that is twice as strong, would eventually break through to the Mahayana realm. Because of your spiritual root, I placed you in the Sima Supervisory Office. I hope you don't hold it against me."
"Disciple dare not!"
Xu Changshou shook his head and said, "If it weren't for Zhu Zu taking me in back then, I would have nowhere to go. I am extremely grateful and would not dare to hold any grudges."
"hehe!"
Zhu Miaoshan smiled gently and said, "Now that you have broken through to the Mahayana realm, you are relieved of your duties as a menial disciple, and give me your identity token."
"Yes……"
Xu Changshou handed the identity token to Zhu Miaoshan, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Ancestor Zhu, what position will this disciple hold in the future?"
In the world of cultivation, one's position is of utmost importance, as it determines the amount of resources one receives.
Zhu Miaoshan's eyes flickered, and she said, "We cultivators rely on our own abilities to perform our duties. Although you are a disciple of the Thunder Ancestor, you cannot be treated specially."
"Disciple understands!"
Xu Changshou felt a chill in his heart. Zhu Miaoshan's words were clearly a warning to him not to rely on Lei Zu's name.
He knew better than anyone that cultivating immortality required a certain background.
But Lei Zu has already ascended to heaven and is now a thing of the past.
Ninety-nine percent of cultivators who have undergone tribulation cannot ascend to immortality, and Zhu Miaoshan does not possess the ability to ascend either, so her efforts to curry favor with Lei Zu are futile.
She couldn't possibly provide Xu Changshou with ample cultivation resources just because he was Lei Zu's disciple. Of course, if Lei Zu were still alive, that would be a different story.
He glanced at Xu Changshou and said, "Besides the peak master, Jumen Peak has three elders: the Dharma Protector Elder, the Law Enforcement Elder, and the Affairs Elder."
"The cultivators at the Mahayana realm on Jumen Peak are almost all under the jurisdiction of the three elders. Let me introduce you to the three elders first, and let them make the arrangements."
"Your disciple will obey you."
Xu Changshou nodded obediently.
Xu Changshou had met the three elders mentioned by Zhu Miaoshan before; they were all among the twenty-eight patriarchs.
"We invite the three elders to come to the Thunder God Temple for a meeting."
"Greetings, Senior Sister Zhu..."
As soon as Zhu Miaoshan finished speaking, three figures landed in the main hall.
Xu Changshou glanced at the three of them, then immediately looked away, not daring to use his divine sense to investigate.
The three men had different appearances.
An elderly man with a white beard and hair.
One was a woman in her early forties.
The last one was an elderly man with white hair and a youthful face.
Xu Changshou had seen all three of these people at Bai Wenlong's Taoist temple.
"Huh? Another newcomer has made a breakthrough."
"This kid looks familiar!"
"I feel like I've seen this somewhere before."
All three of them turned their gazes to Xu Changshou.
