These two places happen to be the family territory, making it more suitable for family mbers to beco divine beings than others. Moreover, in encountering tricky and complex matters, they can leverage the power of the family to resolve them, making it more beneficial for them to perform their duties.
——
"I wonder what brings the Star Lord here suddenly?" asked Emperor Mu Ju, who hails from the Wood God lineage, representing many smaller divine lineages with slightly weaker strength, curiously.
Given Li Chengsheng’s identity, all divine beings in the Heavenly Court, including those six emperors, would give him face.
"My family elders have encountered misfortune and I want to exchange for two divine positions to save their lives. I request the Emperor to confer a Wind God position," Li Chengsheng said humbly, as after all, he sought assistance.
At the sa ti, he presented a bottle of Three Lights Divine Water as compensation for the trouble.
Mu Ju’s eyes lit up; this Three Lights Divine Water is a treasure of the Star God lineage, crafted from the extrely pure brilliance of the Taiyin, Sun, and stars. Its value is imasurable, and he didn’t expect the Star Lord to be so generous.
He had not planned to refuse, and with such great benefits, he not only conferred a Wind God position according to Li Chengsheng’s request but also included the Changli Mountain Range to the north.
"Thank you, Emperor!" Li Chengsheng expressed sincere gratitude.
"Star Lord, you overpraise . I imagine the Star Lord must be anxious now, so I won’t keep you. We must et often in the future!" Mu Ju said with implied aning.
Li Chengsheng knew well what he ant; the Emperor feared that the powerful Yin God might produce another emperor and push him down.
And this was indeed what the Yin God was planning!
Thus, while the Divine Path seed calm, it was actually tumultuous.
However, to Li Chengsheng, Emperor Mu Ju was the one he needn’t worry about, because he represents the interests of various smaller divine lineages. Unless the Yin God went mad and decided to offend all smaller lineages, they would definitely not move against him.
"Would be my pleasure! I’ll certainly visit often, hoping the Emperor won’t mind."
"Hahaha, the Star Lord jests."
With the Wind God position secured and so unexpected gains, obtaining the remaining Sea God position would not be as easy.
Because in the Water God lineage, the Sea Clan dominates; land-based Water Gods, especially those in interior locations, are not their concern, as they cannot obtain them anyway.
But the Sea God position is the private domain of the Sea Clan, absolutely not allowing other powers to intervene.
Thus, on the way, Li Chengsheng changed his mind, letting Qingcang beco the Water God of Shanhai State rather than the Sea God of the Ten Thousand Spirit Sea Area.
Yet, he could wait until Qingcang awoke, then work hard to incorporate the sea area into his Divine Domain.
Even so, the cautious Water God Emperor didn’t imdiately agree, saying he needed to discuss with other Water Gods internally before giving an answer.
"Then I won’t disturb the Emperor any further," Li Chengsheng wisely bade farewell.
"Why does the Star Lord seek a Water God position?" Water God Emperor Ao De fell into thought, pondering if there might be secrets hidden within.
Yet, no matter how he thought, he couldn’t fathom any clues, ultimately deciding to agree to Li Chengsheng’s request, exchanging a bottle of Three Lights Divine Water for the Water God position of Shanhai State.
Li Chengsheng was truly generous, with only four bottles of Three Lights Divine Water in hand, losing half of them at once.
"Thank you, Emperor, for your fulfillnt." After expressing gratitude, he contentedly left with the divine positions.
Thereafter, at the Sun Star, his true self received the two divine positions from his divided spirit outside the Heavenly Gate and flew directly to the Li family.
"Father, here are the two divine positions."
Li Zhirui’s eyes showed a trace of surprise; he hadn’t expected Li Chengsheng to be so efficient. Less than half a day had passed, and the divine positions were secured.
"You’ve worked hard; during this process, the spiritual objects you consud will be compensated by the family."
"No need; they were just so worthless items. The reason those two emperors agreed was entirely due to and Shuo’s influence."
Li Zhirui gave him a deep look, saying nothing more, thinking only of returning the favor in the future.
Next ca the solemn and respectful divine enthronent.
With Li Chengsheng, the Deity of the Sun, present, the whole process naturally had no issues, and Xiaoqing and Cang instantly beca divine beings.
"Enthrone!"
The Sealing God Edict carrying Heavenly Dao Power rged into the bodies of the two, emitting a unique force from within them.
For Xiaoqing and Cang, trapped in so unknown place without finding an exit, this was like a lifeline guiding them to light.
With a hum, Xiaoqing and Cang, who had been in a non-life non-death state for years, finally opened their eyes.
"Jiu Brother! Cheng Sheng, we..."
Li Zhirui briefly explained: "Since there was no way to awaken you, we could only use Heavenly Dao Power, and the best way was to beco divine beings in the Heavenly Court."
"Thank you, Jiu Brother, for worrying about us all these years," Xiaoqing and Cang said emotionally.
If not for their persistent efforts over many years, the two would have been trapped in that unknown place.
"From now on, you two will be divine beings; rember to act according to divine rules, and not like before. You mustn’t be reckless and impulsive again."
This ti, they survived through divine enthronent, but next ti? On what could they rely?
"Understood!"
Trapped in the unknown for years, the lesson was enough for them to rember it always, never daring to be so reckless again.
"Alright, go and attend to your own matters."
Li Zhirui waved his hand for them to disperse.
"It’s a pity, if the managed Divine Domain were larger, the mont Uncle Qingpeng awoke, he would face tribulation." Li Chengsheng said sowhat regretfully.
Li Zhirui had a different view on this matter, smiling and saying, "This may be a good thing, letting them have ti to adapt to the changed world and their own strength; tribulation is a minor issue."
"Father, now that this is settled, I’ll return first."
"Go ahead, if you encounter anything unsolvable, rember to seek help from the family; don’t shoulder everything alone." Li Zhirui earnestly advised.
"I’ve noted it all, rest assured, Father."
Saying so, he transford into a rainbow light and left Mount Wanxian.
Li Zhirui shook his head, secretly breathing a sigh of relief; finally, Xiaoqing and Cang’s issues were resolved, allowing him to focus on cultivation.
Years pass slowly in the mountains, and several decades went by in the blink of an eye.
During this period, Xiaoqing and Cang diligently perford their duties; their divine positions were much more secure, with even the Heavenly Court unable to easily strip them.
anwhile, their states also improved, as their previous life-threatening quests for breakthroughs were indeed successful, though at that ti they fell into a coma, unable to awaken for tribulation.
Now, after decades of rest and recovery, their states were complete, ready for Immortal Ascension Tribulation at any ti.
There are many ways to advance in the Divine Path, the most common being divine position advancent, which allows cultivation to improve accordingly. However, it’s like the moon in water, flower in mirror; once a divine position is lost, cultivation wanes accordingly.
Still, before being stripped, one can diligently cultivate, striving to raise true cultivation, thus avoiding the drop issue.
Another way is self-cultivation elevation by divines, like Xiaoqing and Cang, being cases of this kind.
Cultivation is personal, yet divine positions don’t elevate alongside it.
To avoid accidents, Xiaoqing and Cang chose to face tribulation on two separate days.
...
For two consecutive days, clouds of tribulation rolled over Mount Wanxian, thunder rumbling.
First to face the tribulation was Xiaoqing!
Perhaps due to having a divine position, and his firm foundation, strong power, the thunder tribulation hardly hard him, he smoothly passed through nine waves of Tribulation Thunder.
When Cang faced tribulation on the second day, it was effortless compared to Xiaoqing.
The reason possibly being as a Water God, gleaning rit is easier than for Xiaoqing.
