After Zhang Ling returned to Xingfu Town, he immediately hid in the land temple.
He took the initiative to hand over the flying centipede's body, and he certainly had his considerations.
Although the thousand-year-old demon body is good and has many advantages, it is far less powerful than the one that was given away.
I am a newcomer and my strength is weak, so I shouldn't be too greedy and rush into things.
Sending it away can create a good relationship. First, he won't be blamed for allowing the evil spirit to wreak havoc in the town and standing idly by for more than a year. Second, if a big monster appears next time and he can't handle it, he can wait for the fastest help. He can't let others make a wasted trip and return empty-handed.
Then he checked his own situation.
[Name: Zhang Ling]
[Lifespan: 499/710]
[Immortal Position: Ninth-Rank Land God]
Realm: The Three Realms of Earthly Immortals
[Magic Powers: Knowing Time, Knowing Places, Opening Walls, Summoning People, Walking on Earth, Marrying Dreams, Invisibility]
[Longevity Blessings: Spiritual Field (100 mu), Spiritual Pond (10 mu), Spiritual Mountain (1 mu)]
As expected, every time a monster is subdued, one's life span will be increased by 100 years and one's cultivation level will be improved by one level.
Fudi continues to expand.
At the same time, Zhang Ling's mind contained more information about the Flying Centipede's life and past.
In order to repay the kindness of the pork seller, he vowed to kill all the evil people in the world. Although he is a demon, he has a chivalrous heart.
"pity!"
Zhang Ling admired the Flying Centipede's personality very much, but the immortal and the demon were different and each had their own stance, so it was difficult to find a compromise.
With this in mind, Zhang Ling entered the Land of Eternal Life and came to the spiritual field. He flicked his sleeves and let the breeze blow. Some peach seeds brought back from Taohua Temple were scattered in the 100-acre spiritual field.
As soon as it was buried in the soil, it sprouted branches and began to take shape.
In time, these seeds will grow into towering peach trees, shading the ground and laden with fruits. It can be considered as a token of my love for things, giving the flying centipede a ride.
After dealing with the matter of the blessed land, Zhang Ling returned to the land temple. Just as he was about to go to the town to eliminate the demon, he ran into the city god and the mountain god head-on.
The Linjiang County City God said, "I forgot to inform you that I, the Second Immortal, had already eliminated the demon in this town for you when you went to Taohua Temple."
Zhang Ling took the opportunity to glance at the sky, and sure enough, the wind had blown away the clouds, and the sky was clear, without any trace of evil spirit.
"Zhang Ling, you're great!"
The City God and the Mountain God did not hide their admiration at all.
After several greetings and thanks, Zhang Ling watched the two immortals leave.
After a while, the big stone that had been hanging in his heart fell to the ground.
In this way, the two major crises from Happy Town and one's own lifespan are completely resolved!
In addition, he was appreciated by the two immortals, and from now on, Zhang Ling could sit on the Diaoyutai in this small piece of land under his jurisdiction.
A person without complicated matters will have a leisurely life.
After returning to the land of longevity, Zhang Ling began to meditate and practice, cultivate his essence and qi, harmonize the dragon and the tiger, and capture the Kan and fill the Li.
Although slaying demons is the best way to practice, there are no demons in the area under his jurisdiction. As the ruler of a certain place, he cannot leave the area at will, otherwise he will be discovered by the day and night wandering gods and the four guards, and he will be in trouble.
As for the reclamation of the Lingchi and Lingshan, Zhang Ling decided to put it aside for now.
In the past, he did not have the conditions to use spiritual seeds, so he had to use ordinary seeds as a last resort. Now that he has gained some experience and has lived long enough, of course he wants to find some better spiritual seeds to raise.
Just like this a few days passed.
One day, Zhang Ling suddenly felt a sense of inspiration and his mind moved.
He stood outside the land temple and looked up at the sky. Not far away, an auspicious cloud floated over, and purple mist permeated the entire sky.
"Zhang Ling, the land god of Xingfu Town, is here to be appointed!" The person who spoke was actually the god of time, one of the four guards.
Zhang Ling immediately bowed respectfully, "Zhang Ling, I await your appointment!"
"The imperial decree states: Zhang Ling, the landowner of Xingfu Town, has been dedicated to his duties, possesses both talent and virtue, and has made remarkable achievements. He is hereby promoted to an eighth-rank immortal official and appointed the mountain god of Jieyang Mountain. He is to assume his duties within three days. This is my decree!"
A stream of purple air descended from the clouds, washing over Zhang Ling's entire body. It was like a sudden enlightenment, like an immortal pointing the way.
He took a look at the panel and found that his lifespan had increased by a thousand years and his cultivation level had risen by three levels.
[Name: Zhang Ling]
[Lifespan: 499/1710]
[Immortal Position: Eighth-Rank Mountain God]
Realm: Sixth Realm of Earthly Immortals
[Magic Powers: Knowing Time, Knowing Places, Opening Walls, Summoning People, Walking on Earth, Marrying Dreams, Invisibility]
[Longevity Blessings: Spiritual Field (100 mu), Spiritual Pond (10 mu), Spiritual Mountain (1 mu)]
This is the immortal power and longevity bestowed by heaven, so the blessed land has not changed at all.
After the god on duty finished speaking, he offered a few simple congratulations and prepared to leave on his cloud.
Zhang Ling quickly escaped into the clouds, grabbed the man, and calmly handed him a Qiankun bag: "Thank you for coming all the way here, Immortal. This is a small gift from me."
When the God on Duty heard this, he was surprised at first, and then his heart warmed.
Although he was responsible for inspecting the world and recording merits, he was ultimately only a sixth-rank immortal official, and no one had ever expressed any affection for him.
On weekdays, the four shift officials were always working in the wind and fire. After finishing one job, there was another one. It was an endless process with no end. They did a lot of work related to imperial decrees and enthronement, but no one of them ever said thank you for the hard work. They were all just being grateful to their superiors.
This Zhang Ling is quite interesting!
No wonder the City God and Mountain God of Linjiang County praised this boy highly.
The god at that time used his divine sense to check the Qiankun bag and found that it was the body of a spirit snake. This was a very tonic thing. If it was carefully refined, it would have endless uses.
"The City God and Mountain God of Linjiang County have given you the only position in the county for promotion to the Ninth Rank Immortal Official in the past three hundred years. They say you are intelligent, talented, virtuous, and have made remarkable achievements. I see today that you are truly extraordinary!"
