I Can Use Myriad Divine Abilities-Chapter 308: Comprehending the Dao in the Hall
Dharma Guardian Divine General!
All the Daoists within the Outer Hall were astounded and speechless.
Although Hui Zhi, the Chief Mage, had previously decreed that everyone knew the vacant position of the Divine General had found its owner.
Everyone was still guessing which expert could receive such an honor.
Unexpectedly, the new Dharma Guardian Divine General turned out to be the former Outer Hall Guardian, Zhao Yun.
However, Zhang Yuan was indeed too young, causing them to feel a sense of absurdity.
But someone quickly recalled that Zhang Yuan had once slain Li Wanlong, a Tier Five expert of the Li Family, leaving his strength beyond doubt.
Everyone looked at each other, with the hall in silence.
After a moment, the Outer Hall Steward, Daoist Chen, tremblingly asked, "Zhao, no, Protector Zhang, you should go to the Inner Hall to register, right?"
The weight of the Inner Hall and Outer Hall of the Celestial King Hall differs.
As the new Dharma Guardian Divine General, Zhang Yuan’s status and position are too high for the Outer Hall to accommodate.
Zhang Yuan smiled, "My position as Dharma Guardian Divine General is nominal, without a real position, so it needs to be registered in the Outer Hall."
He added, "This is the decision of the Chief Mage!"
Zhang Yuan understood clearly that Hui Zhi arranged this mostly to appease the Sub-Palace Masters, Elders, and other high-ranking members of the Celestial King Hall, making it easier for them to accept.
Otherwise, resentment and disputes below would cause this Grand Mage headaches!
Daoist Chen suddenly understood and promptly responded with respect, "I understand."
He held up the Divine General Token with both hands on the table, completing the registration procedures for Zhang Yuan.
This way, Zhang Yuan could use this plaque in the future to undertake any Daoist Merit task in the Outer Hall or exchange for any item in the Daoist Vault, surpassing ordinary Daoists.
Even if nominal, it is still the Dharma Guardian Divine General!
This time, Zhang Yuan registered his real name in the Celestial King Hall.
Using the former name "Zhao Yun" had no further meaning, as his fame inside and outside the Xia Ruins was known by almost everyone, yet few knew his real name.
Almost two years had passed since the reward notice issued by the Furious Whale Gang throughout the Ruins City had vanished in the sun and wind.
And even if others remembered, so what?
Not to mention, Zhang Yuan was now the Dharma Guardian Divine General of the Celestial King Hall. Without this protective layer, he still could secure a place in the Xia Ruins.
Zhang Yuan achieved this by trampling over the Li Family’s fallen!
What surprised Zhang Yuan was that his Divine General Token astonishingly held five hundred Daoist Merits.
Zhang Yuan previously exhausted his Daoist Merits before leaving the Celestial King Hall, leaving none.
It’s likely these five hundred Daoist Merits were given by Hui Zhi. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
The Chief Mage was indeed generous!
Zhang Yuan had no immediate need to exchange Daoist Merits for cultivation resources, so after completing the paperwork, he left the Outer Hall and entered the main hall of the Celestial King Hall.
Today was not a day for the main hall to be open to the public, so the vast hall was void of ordinary believers.
Only dozens of Daoists sat cross-legged on both sides, their eyes closed, reciting scriptures in cultivation.
Zhang Yuan did not disturb these Daoists and took three incense sticks, offering them on the incense burner.
He performed a grand ritual towards the Primordial Celestial King Statue standing in the center of the hall.
He bowed deeply three times!
With Xuan Cheng before and Hui Zhi after, Zhang Yuan achieved today’s opportunity inseparable from the Primordial Celestial King.
Whether the deity truly existed, its guardianship over Zhang Yuan was undeniably real.
Otherwise, why would the Chief Mage single him out for special attention!
Zhang Yuan silently expressed his gratitude, pledging to repay the divine grace with efforts.
The moment Zhang Yuan straightened up, ready to leave.
A profound and mysterious aura suddenly descended.
Enveloping him wholly within!
Zhang Yuan shuddered, standing motionless, his spirit drifting out into the heavens.
He felt his consciousness detach from his body, as if guided by an immensely powerful force into another realm, losing all perception of the external world.
Only his mind retained some clarity.
In the next instant, enlightenment sprouted in Zhang Yuan’s heart.
The "Primordial Celestial Spirit True Method," "Carefree Travel," "Nine Blades of Wind and Cloud," "Great Stone-Throwing Hand," "Six Harmonies Qilin Body"...
One by one, the cultivation techniques and martial arts he mastered and practiced emerged in his sea of consciousness.
His intuition told Zhang Yuan he must make a choice.
To choose one among these cultivation techniques and martial arts!
Without any hesitation, Zhang Yuan decisively chose the "Primordial Celestial Spirit True Method."
As this extraordinary skill was his primary cultivation technique, closely linked to his cultivation realm and martial arts foundation.
Zhang Yuan had invested most of his time and energy into the "Primordial Celestial Spirit True Method."
Choosing one from many, naturally, this must be the selection!
Boom!
The moment Zhang Yuan made his choice, his mind suddenly shook, and aside from the "Primordial Celestial Spirit True Method," the rest of the cultivation techniques and martial arts collapsed and vanished.
The Heart Method content of the "Primordial Celestial Spirit True Method" then unfolded word by word.
Even though Zhang Yuan was extremely familiar with this Heart Method content.
Yet, as he unconsciously re-read it, inspiration surged, generating many new insights!
Zhang Yuan knew very well that such insights were exceedingly rare and precious.
Thus, he devoted his entire mind to comprehending the "Primordial Celestial Spirit True Method."
Many previously overlooked areas became clear, appearing as if clouds parted to reveal the sun, directly accessing the core and essence of the cultivation technique!
Zhang Yuan felt unspeakably joyful, immersed within, unable to extricate himself.
At this time in the main hall, the Daoists sitting on both sides opened their eyes.
Witnessing Zhang Yuan standing before the statue, they displayed expressions of shock, bewilderment, and even doubt!
A faint golden glow enveloped Zhang Yuan.
While the mystical aura descending upon the main hall swirled around him, subtly revealing a vision of scattered falling flowers.
The blessing of the Celestial King, enlightenment in the hall!
All the Daoists understood what had just transpired.
Though some didn’t know the origin of Zhang Yuan, it didn’t hinder their envy and jealousy towards him!
Over hundreds of years, the devout Daoist cultivators and believers of the Primordial Celestial King were innumerable.
Yet, obtaining such an opportunity was exceedingly rare.
No one knew exactly what conditions needed to be met to gain the chance for blessing and enlightenment.
But everyone knew how greatly such an opportunity could enhance one’s cultivation!
Previously, someone attained enlightenment in the hall, advancing from Daoist to Mage within a day, breaking through three levels of cultivation.
And presently, the Palace Master of the Celestial King Hall, Chief Mage Hui Zhi, received such an opportunity!
The issue was, Zhang Yuan was merely an outsider.
What merit did he hold to warrant such extraordinary favor from the Primordial Celestial King?
It’s truly unjust!
