The people of the Gully Realm also invited Daoist Feng and boarded the flying carriage. Feng Zhaotong was invited by Daoist Feng to share the carriage.
The carriage circled above the sea of clouds and took the opportunity to admire the scenery above.
During the tour, Daoist Feng said, "Feng Xuan Zun, it's convenient to travel between the Gully Realm and Tianxia now. I have a Dao Guarding Treasure that allows me to pass through. If Feng Xuan Zun and the rest of you are willing to stay here and cultivate, it's fine as long as you follow the rules of Tianxia."
Feng Zhaotong thought about it and said sincerely, "Thank you for your kindness, but I'll stay in the Gully Realm. The upper level is indeed a good place to go, but there are many things that the juniors below can't do well."
Daoist Feng nodded, "Feng Xuan Zun's words are reasonable. From a small sect to the lord of a realm, it's indeed necessary to have a suitable leader."
Feng Zhaotong looked over and heard the deeper meaning in Daoist Feng's words. He asked, "Do you have something to say, Feng Tingzhi?"
Daoist Feng smiled, "Yes, I do. We might have to ask Feng Xuan Zun to stay in Tianxia for a while."
Feng Zhaotong asked curiously, "Why? Is there anything that you need me to do? "
If it were another power, they might think that they wanted to keep a hostage here. However, Tianxia clearly didn't need to do so. Tianxia and Yuan Xia's interests were aligned. Moreover, without Tianxia's support, the Gully Realm wouldn't be able to last for even a day.
Daoist Feng said, "There is indeed an important task that I want to entrust to Feng Xuan Zun."
Feng Zhaotong's expression became serious, "Please speak, Feng Tingzhi. As long as I can do it, I won't refuse. "
Daoist Feng looked at him and said, "Feng Xuan Zun, you should know that the upper level of Tianxia is controlled by Xuan Ting. He makes all kinds of decisions."
Feng Zhaotong nodded and said, "This Feng has heard a thing or two before. It seems that Zhang Tingzhi is also one of the court administrators."
Daoist Feng smiled and said, "In Xuanting, Chief Enforcer Chen is in charge of the Clear Sky Boat. His position is above the other enforcers. Zhang Tingzhi's position is just below the Chief Enforcer."
"So the status of Ancestral Immortals is actually this high!"
Feng Zhaotong was surprised and happy at the same time. He didn't expect this Ancestral Immortal to have such a high status in the court. At the same time, he also felt that the Xuanting really valued the Gully Realm. Back then, they even let Zhang Yu personally teach them Daoist techniques.
Seeing his reaction, Taoist Feng nodded inwardly and continued, "Now, all of you from the Gully Realm have returned to Tianxia, and you should have your rightful position. Xuanting has already decided that if the time is right in the future, one of you will be selected to be the Court Administrator."
Feng Zhaotong was startled. He pondered for a moment and asked, "Magistrate Feng, for you to discuss this matter with me alone, is it because you want me to be the magistrate?"
Taoist Feng smiled and said, "That's right. However, the selection of the magistrate hasn't been finalized yet. If we were to choose one person from the Gully Realm, only you, Fellow Daoist Feng, are the most suitable. Zhang Tingzhi thinks so too. "
Feng Zhaotong thought for a moment and said slowly, "But I've just reached the upper realm. If I suddenly become the Court Administrator, how can I convince the others?"
The people of Tianxia were convinced not by the people of the Gully Realm, but by the people of Tianxia. He knew very well that the position of Court Administrator was so important that there must be countless people in Tianxia eyeing it. If he were to become the Court Administrator, he would be dissatisfied with many people before he could do anything. Moreover, his current cultivation wasn't qualified at all.
Taoist Feng smiled and said, "Feng Xuan Zun, you don't have to worry about this. I haven't reached the Virtual State either, and I'm also the Court Administrator now." He paused for a moment and said meaningfully, "Actually, Xuan Zun, becoming the Court Administrator isn't your problem alone. It's the Gully Realm's problem."
Pushing Feng Zhaotong into the Court Administrator wasn't purely to win people's hearts. The Gully Realm had Xuntian Dao Zhang and the same dao intent. Even the dao techniques they cultivated were very similar. In fact, the Gully Realm was a step away from Tianxia. There was almost no difference between them.
However, the Gully Realm was so big that its population was comparable to a continent. A considerable portion of its population was cultivators. Moreover, the Gully Realm was bound to be at the forefront, so it needed to be supported and valued accordingly. It couldn't be justified if there wasn't a Court Administrator in the Court.
Feng Zhaotong fell into deep thought. He obviously thought of this as well. This clearly wasn't his problem alone, but the entire Gully Realm's problem.
Taoist Feng continued, "Moreover, Xuan Zun, we've all seen your abilities. With your abilities, it won't be difficult for you to reach the Virtual State. What Xuanting values more is your qualifications and experience in ruling a continent."
Feng Zhaotong was considered the person with the highest level of cultivation in the Gully Realm, and he had accumulated a lot of experience. It was possible for someone like him to obtain top-notch achievements. With Tianxia's support, reaching the Virtual State wouldn't be difficult for him at all.
Moreover, his prestige and abilities were both qualified. What was even more difficult was that he started as a cultivator at the bottom. He reconciled various parties and slowly worked his way up. He seemed to have outstanding talent, but in fact, he was a very solid person. There was no doubt that he fulfilled all the conditions to become a Court Administrator.
The only regret was that he didn't know much about Tianxia. However, this didn't matter. As long as he knew enough about the Gully Realm, there was no need for him to give any useful advice to Tianxia.
Feng Zhaotong thought about it carefully and said, "Xuanting must have considered Xuanting's arrangement. I'm willing to accept it, but I don't think I dare to accept it because I haven't reached the Virtual State yet. Once I succeed, if Xuanting is still willing to look down on me, I'm willing to listen to his arrangements."
Taoist Feng thought to himself, 'Although Xuan Zun is a true cultivator, the people of the Gully Realm are all taught by Zhang Tingzhi. If he becomes a Court Administrator, he'll have another supporter above Xuanting.'
However, he understood why Feng Zhaotong insisted on reaching the Virtual State. He was afraid that people would criticize him and look down on all the cultivators of the Gully Realm. This person's approach was prudent, which made Taoist Feng think highly of him.
At the same time, he also felt that he should work harder because he was the only one who hadn't reached the Virtual State yet among the Court Administrators. However, this problem wouldn't be a problem after he solved his own cultivation method. It was just a matter of time.
After all, the Court Administrator had mystical rations to cultivate and also grasped the Clear Sky Qi as a reference. He wouldn't fall behind others. He didn't dare to think about getting the best results, but he was confident that he could take a step further.
After talking about this, he didn't continue to talk about it. Instead, he talked about some internal and external affairs of the court. After a summer, they arrived in front of a large hall. The people of the Gully Realm were arranged to meet Chief Administrator Chen and the other Court Administrators.
After entering the hall, the cultivators of the Gully Realm saw Zhang Yu standing on the steps only below Chief Administrator Chen. They were excited and relieved.
After Chief Administrator Chen comforted them, he let Chao Tingzhi preach the rules of Tianxia.
Everyone expressed that they were willing to abide by the rules and wouldn't go overboard.
Next, Chief Administrator Wei Ting announced that the Gully Realm would establish a prefecture according to Tianxia's method. Next, he set up a gate that connected the two realms. This way, even ordinary cultivators could take flying boats to travel between Tianxia and the Gully Realm.
The Xuan Zun of the Gully Realm knew about this before they came. Instead of resisting, they were very happy because this meant that Tianxia didn't treat the Gully Realm as a realm that could be abandoned at any time. Instead, he truly treated the Gully Realm as his own territory.
After the ceremony, Chief Administrator Chen comforted everyone and then praised them. This time, every cultivator of the Gully Realm who contributed to the fight against Yuanxia was rewarded with mystical rations.
All of these things were beneficial to the two realms, so the Xuan Zun of the Gully Realm were convinced.
Zhang Yu was almost done waiting, so he said from the steps, "Chief Administrator Feng, although the scenery on the upper level is good, the inner level of Tianxia is also a part of Tianxia. I'll have to trouble you to bring the Xuan Zun to the lower level to take a look."
Daoist Feng gladly agreed.
Seeing that the ceremony was over, Feng Zhaotong and the others bowed to Chief Administrator Chen and Zhang Yu before retreating.
Daoist Feng stayed behind. He bowed to Chief Administrator Chen and said, "Chief Administrator, I've asked Xuan Zun Feng just now. He's also willing to accept the position of Chief Administrator, but he insists that he wants to accept the position after he obtains the Illusory Merit Fruit."
Wei Tingzhi looked at Chief Administrator Chen and said, "Chief Administrator, this Xuan Zun Feng seems to have his own concerns, but his choice is fine. After all, this matter isn't urgent."
Deng Jing said, "It's only the Gully Realm. Although the Gully Realm is the first to bear the brunt, it should be able to obtain the position."
The various adherents would come to support more Heavens and Earth, but the possibility of adding the position of Court Enforcer was not high. This was because Tianxia's current defensive power could not be spread too far. If they had to defend every Heavens and Earth that was raised, it would instead give Yuanxia an opportunity and disperse the power of the Dao Guarding Treasure.
Therefore, even if there were other realms, it would be better to give up on the realms and gather them into Tianxia.
Only the Gully Realm needed to be maintained. Yuanxia wouldn't let this place go, so this place was considered the frontline of the battle.
Chief Administrator Chen said in a deep voice, "This matter also needs to be considered. Let's leave it at that for now."
After the people of the Gully Realm left the upper layer, they took a spiritual boat and headed to the inner layer.
They were actually more interested in the inner layer because the cultivators of the Gully Realm had been fighting against all kinds of mystical creatures since the beginning of their cultivation. First, it was on the land, then it was in the void.
It could be said that they had always been struggling to survive. Most of their output was used to provide for the cultivators' cultivation, and the people's livelihood was only maintained to a minimum. On the other hand, the cultivators were either in seclusion or fighting against external enemies every day. They never thought that they could have such a rich and colorful life.
Halfway through, a Xuan Zun asked, "Chief Administrator Feng, we've already seen Tianxia's creation through Xuntian Dao Zhang, but can we see how it's refined?"
Daoist Feng shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that's not possible."
Seeing the disappointment on this person's face, he smiled and said, "It's not that I'm afraid that you'll see it. I, Tianxia, can even provide you with Daoist techniques, let alone creation. It's just that this thing goes against the path of cultivation. If cultivators get close to it, it'll be difficult to create it. "
The Xuan Zun said in surprise, "There's a change?"
Daoist Feng nodded and said, "That's right."
Everyone couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of Daoism.
Feng Zhaotong thought for a moment and said, "I heard that it's made by some craftsmen. Can we invite them to our Gully Realm to create something?"
Daoist Feng smiled and said, "As long as it complies with the rules, it's fine. In fact, Xuanting will send some craftsmen to set up a prefecture. If you feel that it's not enough, you can submit a request to Xuanting, and they can send some craftsmen to the Gully Realm at their discretion. "
