Chapter 22: Ten Thousand Years Selection



It has been more than two months since the last time I used my sword to cut through the evil paths of Tianyin Mountain.

During this period, nothing happened in Xieyang Mountain and it was peaceful and harmonious.

now.

Zhang Ling takes care of the immortal date trees in the Changsheng Blessed Land.

If you stand on Lingshan and look into the distance, what comes into view is the 10,000 acres of neatly planned spiritual fields at the end of the horizon.

There was a date tree with its roots uprooted, occupying the entire field and towering into the sky.

Dense green leaves are evenly distributed on the tall branches, and jujube fruits like stars hang on the branches, exuding amazing aura.

The entire towering ancient tree was shrouded in a thin purple mist, appearing hazy and ethereal.

This date tree has been planted for five or six hundred years, and now it has finally taken shape, with abundant harvests and rich fruits.

Walking in to take a look, each fairy date is about the size of a baby's fist, translucent red in color, and the surface of the flesh has a layer of spiritual luster.

I picked one and put it in my mouth. There was no core. I didn't need to chew it at all. It automatically turned into a warm current that went straight into my stomach.

The abundant immortal power nourishes the whole body, making people feel relaxed from the inside out.

oh!

In a moment, Zhang Ling's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that his life span would be increased by a hundred years!

Looking up at the sky full of dates, he couldn't help but lower his head in thought, secretly calculating how much longer his life would be if he ate them all.

Although I think so, it is impossible to do so. This is undoubtedly killing the chicken to get the eggs.

Although the fairy date tree has taken shape now, it lacks the foundation and can hardly compare with the real fairy tree fruit.

You must know that the peaches given to the immortals at the Yaochi Festival, at least one of them can extend one’s lifespan by nine thousand years!

Zhang Ling looked at the jujube tree in front of him thoughtfully, and then looked at the thousand-year-old dragon ball in the spirit pool. The dragon ball belongs to water and can grow things with the soil. He secretly thought that it would be great if there was another dragon ball, so that it could stay in the soil and nourish the tree day and night.

Just make a note of this and pay more attention to it in the future.

He waved his sleeves, summoned a stone bench and table, placed a chessboard on it, leaned his back against the fairy tree, and started playing chess.

After coming to this world for hundreds of years, he often relieved his boredom by playing chess alone. However, after playing for a long time, he discovered many tricks in it.

It is very helpful for self-cultivation and enlightenment of the mind.

However, this truth can only be understood but not explained in words, and requires patience and careful consideration.

One child determines the origin of the universe, this is the unity of heaven and earth.

oh!

Suddenly, Zhang Ling stopped his hand that was about to make a move, raised his brows, and exclaimed in surprise: An old friend has come to see me.

Returning to the tiger's residence, the real body hurried out of the cave and waited quietly.

Not long after, a auspicious cloud came from the horizon, with purple mist illuminating all directions. There was a person on it, who was the god of time.

"Hahaha, Brother Zhang, I haven't seen you for over five hundred years. I miss you so much!"

The hearty laughter coming towards you makes you feel more at home.

Zhang Ling clasped his fists and bowed, then went to greet him. He exchanged a few pleasantries with him, and soon the two of them entered the mansion.

"I've come here to inform Brother Zhang that in a hundred years, the Heavenly Court will hold a once-in-a-million-year selection of immortal officials. All immortals, demons, humans, ghosts, and other sacred beings who have reached the Earthly Immortal Realm are welcome to take the test. We will recruit talents regardless of their background!"

The selection of immortal officials once every ten thousand years?

Zhang Ling seemed to be lost in thought. He had never heard of this information before. If the God of Time had not come to inform him personally, he would have missed it.

You must know that on the road to success, one step slower than another will lead to another. As long as you encounter a tiny opportunity, you must grit your teeth and give it a try, no matter how hard or difficult it is. Otherwise, it will take you forever to wait for such an opportunity again.

You may miss it and regret it for the rest of your life.

The God of Time said calmly, "This once-in-a-millennium selection of Immortal Officials is extremely difficult and demanding. Only those with great perseverance and exceptional talent are qualified. This is a grand ceremony specially organized by the Heavenly Court to select the most capable people in the world. Just to say that in the past 300,000 years, only a few have been able to stand out in the annual selection!"

Is it so difficult?

Zhang Ling immediately asked with concern, "How many people have emerged victorious?"

"Only three hundred people!"

Zhang Ling was stunned. After 300,000 years of selection, only 300 people succeeded? On average, only ten people made it through the selection every ten thousand years!

You should know that this is a selection of immortal officials without restrictions on the affiliation, immortal status, or background of all living beings. The number of participants is as numerous as carp in the sea. With such a huge base, only ten people are selected per session on average.

This familiar feeling, why is it the same as the exam I took in my previous life?

The God of Time continued, "It's certainly difficult, but even the worst of those three hundred people can directly become a fourth-rank Great Immortal Official! How can you know if it's possible if you don't try?"

Zhang Ling nodded without comment. In the end, cultivating immortality is all about cultivating one's mind and character. If one does not have the determination to move forward and is always timid, that is certainly not advisable.

"If you're interested in participating in the selection process, you can register directly with me."

"If you are not interested, you can wait for the Heavenly Court promotion assessment in fifteen hundred years. At that time, each department and ministry will randomly select examiners from the fourth rank and above. If you meet the qualifications and pass the assessment, you can be promoted to the seventh rank immortal position."

Zhang Ling pondered for a moment: "I wonder how difficult this Heavenly Court test is?"

The God of Time replied, "The promotion from Eighth Rank to Seventh Rank is a matter of ten thousand! However, it is much easier than the selection ceremony, but without potential, people will not take you seriously. If you can pass the ten thousand year selection, you will rise straight to the top, leaving your name in heaven and on earth, attracting the attention of all, and having a promising future."

Zhang Ling understood the reasoning behind this. This once-in-a-millennium selection was a special channel opened to those with extraordinary talents. Those who stood out would probably be promoted to the top in one step, just like the top scorers in the imperial examinations in the mortal world.

The so-called Heavenly Court promotion assessment follows a process, progressing step by step. Every step along the way must be taken firmly, and the assessee must also meet the qualifications, cultivation level, and other factors. Otherwise, he will have to wait for the next round of assessment a thousand years later.
