Taoist Master: I have a strange world

Chapter 30 Accepting the ultimatum and changing the ultimatum

Zhang Ling wore a Taoist robe, carried a package on his back, and left his Taoist temple.

The enshrinement ceremony was to be held early in the morning, so Zhang Ling got up quite early, before it was even dark.

He took a taxi and soon arrived at Qingyun Mountain.

Qingyun Mountain is also a famous mountain nearby, and the Qingyun Temple on it is quite popular.

In the past, people from nearby areas would also come to Qingyun Mountain to climb, so there was special attraction management here.

Zhang Ling came to the tourist entrance at the foot of Qingyun Mountain and showed his Taoist certificate.

Not long ago, there was an incident where Taoist priests returned from traveling and were blocked by the scenic area management. Therefore, all major scenic spots are now open to Taoist priests as long as there are sightseeing spots on the mountain.

Zhang Ling was dressed as a Taoist priest and had a Taoist certificate, so he entered the scenic spot directly without paying any tickets.

Although it is still dark, there are many early-rising tourists preparing to go up the mountain.

In this way, along the way, Zhang Ling's figure shocked every tourist.

"What the hell, so fast?" The tourist was stunned.

Coupled with the suppression of the real world, 'Pegasus Yunzu' has turned into a high-grade one, becoming an instinct that can be mobilized to a certain extent without mana.

But considering that there were still some mountaineers on the way up the mountain, Zhang Ling took his time and controlled his speed to a less shocking level.

Zhang Ling glanced at the time.

"Hurry up."

It was almost six o'clock, and the enclosing ceremony started at eight o'clock, plus there was still preparation time.

Zhang Ling raised his hand and tied up the wide sleeves of his Taoist robe, which was more convenient.

"What's the matter?"

The altitude of Qingyun Mountain is nearly two thousand meters. Normally, it would take three or four hours to go up the mountain.

The 'Pegasus and Cloud Feet' have been completed by Zhang Ling.

Therefore, Zhang Ling's body is light and there is wind on his feet.

Some tourists took out their mobile phones, took a photo of Zhang Ling’s back, and posted it on Douyin with a caption.

"Family members, I met a Taoist priest while hiking up the mountain today."

The next moment, Zhang Ling's thoughts moved slightly, as if there was wind under his feet.

Swish!
  Zhang Ling raised his legs and took a step, between the rock steps, directly crossing several steps with one step, and walked upwards with an ethereal posture.

On the mountain road, a tourist wearing a jacket was huffing and puffing while climbing, and suddenly he felt a gust of wind around him.

When he looked up, he saw that a figure was already heading up the mountain. In just a moment, it had passed dozens or hundreds of steps, leaving only a small figure behind.

So there is not much time left for Zhang Ling.

If he exerts all his strength, it is easy to jump several meters at will.

Even if this is the case, it is already quite shocking in the eyes of others.

……

Zhang Ling completed the mountain road that normally took three or four hours in less than an hour.

This was the result of his deliberate restraint.

Qingyun Temple is located on the top of this mountain.

Zhang Ling climbed up the steps and entered the palace. When he saw Youdao boy, he reported his intention.

Soon, Zhang Ling was arranged to Qingyun Palace and met his second uncle.

"Second uncle."

Zhang Ling stepped forward to say hello, and his second uncle also turned around. When he saw Zhang Ling, a smile appeared on his face: "You kid, you look more and more like a Taoist priest now."

"What is a Taoist priest?" Zhang Ling asked.

"Sanctimonious haha."

The second uncle patted Zhang Ling on the shoulder, then pulled Zhang Ling aside and whispered:
  "Xiao Ling, originally this time I was supposed to give you a Taoist book from the Tianshu Academy or the Arctic Exorcist Academy, but I helped you clear the way and got you a Taoist book from the 'Shenxiao Ranking'."

The Taoist scriptures mentioned by the second uncle are not the Taoist scriptures registered in the actual country.

Rather, conferring Taoist status is related to the Taoist priest's position as a Taoist official.

In ancient times, this Taoist official position was tantamount to "Heavenly Official" or "Immortal Official".

No matter which academy you enter, even if you are an immortal official in that academy, after practicing, you should worship the gods of this series more.

Therefore, what kind of teachings are taught and what Taoist books are accepted are also related to inheritance.

In modern times, after the establishment of the Taoist Association, the Taoist membership card is no longer so strict, and everyone can choose to join.

Generally speaking, Taoism is divided into four major systems: Tianshu Academy, Arctic Exorcism Academy, Yufu, and Shenxiao.

In each of these systems, there are levels of Taoist officials that can be promoted from ninth grade to first grade.

"Originally, you were supposed to receive the title of Ninth Grade, but now you are all alone. Although it is only temporary, I can still promote you to one rank and receive the title of Ninth Grade."

The second uncle quietly revealed this to Zhang Ling.

Zhang Ling nodded. Originally, he only knew all this when he was given the gift, but now he knows it in advance through his second uncle.

"Is the ninth rank of the Shenxiao sect the 'Taiping auxiliary translator Shenxiao's official'?" Zhang Ling asked.

"No, that is the title from the ninth rank."

The second uncle said: "The one who is in the ninth rank is 'Taiping Fuhua Xianqing Shenxiao Law Enforcement Immortal Palace and Xitai Storm Official'."

Taiping auxiliary Xianqing Shenxiao law enforcement fairy palace and Xitai wind and rain official. This is the name of the Taoist official, and it also has a rank, which corresponds to the position of the heavenly official.

After Zhang Ling is awarded the engraving, he will perform it by three masters during the enclosing ceremony, which means to spread the word to heaven and earth and inform the heaven, so that this Taoist book can also be listed in the heaven.

Zhang Ling nodded and had no objection to this offer.

Soon, as the time came, the burial ceremony began.

Zhang Ling stood among the crowd of students waiting to be conferred and went through a series of rituals.

In the end, you have to be awarded the "Tai Shang San Wu Du Gong Sutra", and obtain the Taoist certificate of the ninth grade, and the position is "Taiping Auxiliary Xianqing Shenxiao Law Enforcement Immortal Palace and Xitai Wind and Rain Official".

After this process, the Taoist priest can be officially called a mage, and can be regarded as a registered heavenly cao. He can formally preach on behalf of heaven, preside over fasting rituals, etc., all of which are justified.

In medicine, it means having a medical qualification certificate.

In addition, Zhang Ling also received the ‘Divisional Ring Department Ticket Talisman’, which is equivalent to an employment contract and proof of identity.

This talisman is divided into two, one half is on Zhang Ling's Taoist priest certificate, and the other half is burned during the practice, which represents direct access to heaven.

In addition, there are also magical weapons such as seals, swords, orders, and flags.

After all the ceremonies were over, Zhang Ling also got these things.

In the process, Zhang Ling also discovered a scene that surprised him.

Looking at it, Zhang Ling could watch the Qi.

His official certificate, which represented his identity, had undergone some wonderful changes after completing the enshrinement ceremony and having various seals stamped on it!
  It seems that there are many breaths surrounding it.

Zhang Ling was no stranger to this feeling.

"Is this job certificate a bit like a temple order from another world?"

Zhang Ling suddenly discovered this. His official certificate was surrounded by many auras, just like a temple sign from another world, connecting the surrounding heaven and earth, with the power of law and worship by all people.
