Investiture of the Gods Project Office Established! The Primordial World Enters the Age of Recruitment!

Upon the high platform, Hongjun's emotionless gaze swept over the Sages in the hall one final time.

"This matter is hereby settled."

"Three days from now, the Job Descriptions for the 365 Departmental Deities must be publicly announced throughout the Three Realms."

"Dismissed."

The instant his words fell, that figure seemingly fused with the Great Dao dissipated like wisps of smoke, as though he had never been there.

The Dao Ancestor had left.

The supreme Heavenly Dao pressure within Purple Cloud Palace slowly receded with him.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate abruptly rose from his seat.

He did not say a single word.

He did not even glance at anyone else again.

He merely fixed Chen Changsheng with an intensely cold stare.

There was no rage in that gaze, no killing intent—only a pure, orderly chill capable of freezing eternity.

As though he were looking at a... variable that had disrupted the entire chessboard and had to be eliminated.

The next moment, his figure vanished from Purple Cloud Palace.

Seeing this, Sect Leader Tongtian snorted coldly, sword qi flashing around him before vanishing.

The Two Sages of the West, Jieyin and Zhunti, exchanged a glance.

The expressions that had remained unchanged on their faces for countless years now carried an indescribable... liveliness.

Daoist Zhunti gave Grand Supreme Elder Lao and Sect Leader Tongtian a distant Daoist salute, an enigmatic smile on his face.

"Senior Brothers, this Evaluation is truly a blessing for the Heavenly Dao and a blessing for the Three Realms."

"The West is impoverished, and we do not have many disciples, but we are still willing to contribute our share toward the construction of the Heavenly Court."

With that, he and Daoist Jieyin transformed into golden light and vanished.

Saintess Nuwa had not spoken from beginning to end.

Before leaving, however, her beautiful eyes, which seemed to contain the mysteries of creation, lingered on Chen Changsheng for one extra moment.

There was curiosity in her gaze, appreciation, and a trace of... investigation.

In the blink of an eye, only Taiqing and Chen Changsheng remained in Purple Cloud Palace.

"Haha... hahahaha!"

Sect Leader Tongtian, who had suppressed himself for so long, could no longer contain himself and burst into earth-shaking laughter.

That laughter was filled with boundless exhilaration and pride, making the entire Purple Cloud Palace hum!

"Wonderful! Truly wonderful!"

He stepped up to Chen Changsheng and heavily patted his shoulder, his eyes brimming with approval.

"Wuwei, today you have won tremendous face for the Interception Sect and for your master!"

Grand Supreme Elder Lao also slowly rose from his Prayer Mat.

He looked at Chen Changsheng, and for the first time, a genuine gentleness like that of a teacher appeared in his chaos-like eyes.

"You have done well."

He said only those three words before his figure gradually faded away.

"Remember, Process is also Dao."

"If there is anything you do not understand, come to Eight Views Palace and find me... for tea."

As his words faded, he was already gone.

Chen Changsheng respectfully gave another deep bow in the direction where Grand Supreme Elder Lao had disappeared.

He knew that after today, his "Process" would finally have the strongest backing in the Primordial World.

"Let's go! Back to the island!"

With a wave of Sect Leader Tongtian's hand, a gentle force of Sage power swept Chen Changsheng up as he took a step forward.

Space and time shifted.

The next moment, the two had returned to the main hall of the Calamity Aversion Department on Golden Ao Island.

Daoist Duobao, Zhao Gongming, Holy Mother Jin Ling, Yunxiao, and the others, who had been anxiously waiting there, immediately crowded around them.

"Master! Junior Brother!"

"How did it go?!"

Every face was filled with anxiety and anticipation.

Sect Leader Tongtian looked at his outstanding disciples, the smile on his face no longer able to be restrained.

He said nothing. He merely turned toward Chen Changsheng and solemnly gave him a bow between equals.

"Wuwei."

"Today, your master should bow to you."

This act was like a bolt of thunder striking every Interception Sect disciple over the head!

A Sage bowing to a disciple?

This... this was simply unprecedented!

"Master, you absolutely must not!"

Chen Changsheng turned pale in shock and hurriedly dodged aside.

"Everything this disciple has done was for the Interception Sect, and it was only through Master's protection that it could succeed!"

"Hahaha!"

Sect Leader Tongtian did not insist. Straightening up, he swept his gaze across all the disciples in the hall, his voice ringing like a great bell throughout Golden Ao Island.

"All of you, listen well!"

"From this day onward, the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation is a thing of the past!"

"The Dao Ancestor has personally decreed that the Killing Tribulation shall be renamed the 'Investiture of the Gods Evaluation'!"

"Our sect's disciples will no longer need to use their bodies to answer the tribulation. Instead, you may rely on your own abilities to 'compete for positions'!"

"This achievement was entirely the work of our sect's Dao Protector—your Junior Brother Wuwei, Chen Changsheng!"

After a brief silence.

All of Golden Ao Island erupted!

"What?!"

"The Killing Tribulation... is gone?!"

"It became an Evaluation? We don't have to die anymore?!"

"Senior Brother Wuwei... no! Immortal Official, mighty! Immortal Official, invincible!"

Cheers like crashing mountains and roaring seas rose from every corner of Golden Ao Island.

Countless Outer Sect Disciples, living beings who had once believed they were destined to become cannon fodder, were so overwhelmed that tears streamed down their faces as they kowtowed toward the Calamity Aversion Department.

They were not bowing to the lofty Sages.

They were bowing to the young Dao Protector who had truly pulled them back from the brink of death!

Daoist Duobao and Zhao Gongming exchanged a glance, each seeing extreme shock and wild joy in the other's eyes.

They knew their junior brother had a plan for this journey, but they had never imagined that he would actually... turn around the entire Heavenly Dao Momentum!

A heartfelt, relieved, captivating smile also blossomed across the beautiful faces of Holy Mother Jin Ling, Fairy Yunxiao, and the others.

Faced with this overwhelming fervor, there was not the slightest trace of pride or relaxation on Chen Changsheng's face.

He respectfully bowed to Sect Leader Tongtian.

"Master, Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters."

"The Dao Ancestor has ordered that within three days, the Job Descriptions for the 365 Departmental Deities must be publicly announced throughout the Three Realms."

"We do not have much time."

His words instantly calmed all the core disciples who had been immersed in wild joy.

That was right.

Victory had only just begun.

The execution to come was what truly mattered.

"Transmit my decree!"

Chen Changsheng did not hesitate and directly took command.

"Effective immediately, establish the 'Investiture of the Gods Evaluation Project Office' within the Calamity Aversion Department!"

"I will personally serve as Office Director!"

"Senior Brother Duobao!"

"This disciple is here!"

"You will serve as Executive Deputy Director, responsible for coordinating the drafting and final review of all documents! Ensure that every Job Description is logically rigorous and that its responsibilities and authority are clearly defined!"

"Senior Brother Zhao Gongming!"

"This disciple is here!"

"You will serve as External Relations Deputy Director, responsible for publicity messaging! In three days, I want every independent cultivator in the Primordial World to understand the great significance of the Interception Sect's actions and scramble to join our 'Evaluation'!"

"Senior Sister Jinling, Senior Sister Yunxiao!"

"Please speak, Junior Brother."

"The Data Center will immediately shift its focus to conducting a Job Value Assessment for the 365 divine positions! I need to know the Merit output, fortune bonus, and potential karmic risk of every position! Provide data support for subsequent Salary Grading!"

Each order was clear, calm, and methodical.

The core of the Interception Sect once again began operating at high speed like a precision machine, revolving around him as its new center.

Only after finishing all this did Chen Changsheng finally let out a breath.

And at that very moment, deep within his Sea of Consciousness, which had been silent for so long.

A succession of cold yet delighted mechanical notifications crashed down like the Milky Way pouring from the nine heavens, exploding thunderously!
