Authority of Divine Investiture

Zhang Yang had already understood the importance of protecting others.

Of the more than 100,000 disciples in the entire Azure Cloud Sect, who wouldn't offer their Vow Power to Zhang Yang?

Among the hundreds of thousands of people in Azure Cloud City, a large portion are providing him with their Vow Power.

He himself possesses the Vow Power!

Therefore, when Azure Cloud Master was explaining how to cultivate Divine Power, Zhang Yang simply combined his Vow Power with his own intention and easily cultivated Divine Power!

Azure Cloud Master chuckled when he saw the Divine Power in Zhang Yang's hand.

His divine Divine Dao was truly established thanks to his disciple's reminder, and even the gathering of countless Vow Power across the entire continent owes a debt to his disciple.

Under such circumstances, how could one not understand the Protective Intent?

Once you truly understand the True Intention of protecting, it will be easy to cultivate the Vow Power.

"From now on, I will focus on comprehending the divine Divine Dao. I'm truly entrusting all matters of the sect to you," Azure Cloud Master said to Zhang Yang. "You are the thirty-seventh School Leader, so you can plan the Azure Cloud Sect however you like without consulting me."

"It's alright, I'll just be the acting sect School Leader for now!" Zhang Yang said with a smile. "Once you, Master, have truly achieved Divine Dao perfection and established the God Realm, I can officially take on the School Leader without any problem."

"Oh, right, Master, now that your Divine Dao has been officially established, let me give you a big gift!"

"Hmm?" Azure Cloud Master was somewhat surprised. Why was this kid suddenly being so polite?

Zhang Yang took out the Immortal-Refining Cauldron, pointed at it, and said, "Although I have already killed this True Immortal Realm, I have not destroyed his Divine Soul. It is, after all, a Divine Soul at the Great Dao Perfection, which will be very important to your Divine Dao, Master."

I originally intended for the Immortal-Refining Cauldron to refine it, but Master probably needs it more right now, so I'll give it to you."

"What would I do with it?" Azure Cloud Master was even more surprised. "You mean, I'd Smelting in my Dao Domain?"

I don't think this is necessary for my Dao Domain at all.

He was naturally aware of the Dao Domain he had cultivated himself.

A perfect Great Dao Divine Soul is certainly very precious, but it is useless to his Dao Domain.

"Master, you are the Divine Dao Lord!" Zhang Yang said solemnly, "Besides others who cultivate to become gods, I think you should also have the authority to bestow titles!"

Does this mean that a Divine Dao Lord doesn't even have the power to bestow the title of a new god?

Therefore, I think that the 'Investiture of the Gods' should also be your Divine Dao Authority, Master!

For example, if an emperor finds a place unguarded, he can simply appoint a general to guard it; isn't that acceptable?

Why must we wait until someone volunteers to guard it?

Of course, it is very good to be able to willingly protect a place.

In the early days of Divine Dao, it would be best if the master's Divine Dao followers appeared in the same way.

But we currently have a prisoner in our hands, isn't this the perfect opportunity to test your Divine Dao Authority?"

He genuinely believed that his master should possess the authority to "Divine Investiture Authority".

Otherwise, the authority of this Divine Dao would be too weak!

Azure Cloud Master was tempted, but he wasn't sure if it would work out.

"Shall we give it a try?" Azure Cloud Master asked.

Zhang Yang handed the Immortal-Refining Cauldron to his master, after all, he couldn't handle Divine Soul at the Great Dao Perfection.

Azure Cloud Master reached out and grabbed the Divine Soul of the True Immortal Lichen from the Immortal-Refining Cauldron.

"You... you've already killed me, and you still won't spare my Divine Soul?" True Immortal Lichen was terrified. "At least let me go to Reincarnation!"

He dared not even think about possession or anything like that.

He would be willing to do anything as long as he could be Reincarnation.

"I'm giving you a chance, so cherish it!" Zhang Yang pointed at the Immortal-Refining Cauldron and said to the Divine Soul of the True Immortal Lichen, "This Immortal Artifact of mine can refine the Great Dao. Even if you have a perfected Great Dao, you can still refine it, and even improve upon it!"

Next, my master needs you to do something. If you obey him, you will not only survive, but you will also surpass your previous achievements.

If you don't obey, then I'll refine everything about you, making Reincarnation impossible for you!

True Immortal Lichen was dumbfounded.

These two don't even spare the dead?

What kind of Demon Dao behavior?

He hurriedly asked, "What do you need me to do?"

"Do you know the World-Opener?" Zhang Yang asked rhetorically.

"I know!" True Immortal Lichen nodded repeatedly. "I don't know much about this. Do you want to ask about the other World-Opener? I will answer everything I know..."

"You know about the World-Opener, that's good. Let me formally introduce myself. My master is World-Opener the Divine Dao Path, already at the Late Tribulation Realm. Furthermore, the place we are in is the Dao Realm founded by my master, which will become the God Realm in the future!" Zhang Yang spouted off, mixing truth and falsehood to deceive the True Immortal Lichen. "You don't need to worry about my master's future cultivation on the Divine Dao, because my master's Dao Realm has already merged with the Dao Origin Stone. No one can take away my master's Dao Fruit, and no one can stop my master's Divine Dao."

True Immortal Lichen stared blankly at Azure Cloud Master. As True Immortal Realm of the Immortal Realm, he naturally knew how terrifying the World-Opener was, and also how great the benefits of following the World-Opener were.

More importantly, with factors such as the Late Tribulation Realm and the fusion of Dao Origin Stone, the God Realm may truly appear!

After a long while, True Immortal Lichen finally came to his senses and respectfully asked Azure Cloud Master, "Respected Divine Dao Lord, is there anything I can do for you?"

Azure Cloud Master, holding the Divine Soul of the True Immortal Lichen, explained the mysteries of the Divine Dao to him. Then, he instructed the Divine Soul of the True Immortal Lichen, "Next, I will bestow upon you the title of..."

He pondered for a moment, then opened his Dao Domain, pointed at Azure Cloud Peak, and said, "I hereby appoint you as the Mountain God of Azure Cloud Peak. You must protect Azure Cloud Peak well for me!"

He dared not let the True Immortal Lichen go too far, after all, it was the Divine Soul of a True Immortal Realm.

With Azure Cloud Peak right under his nose, as long as he kept a close eye on it, he could control even the Divine Soul of the True Immortal Realm at any time.

"Yes, sir!" replied the True Immortal Lichen.

Then, things got awkward.

Then what?

"Master, how do you feel?" Zhang Yang hurriedly asked Azure Cloud Master.

Logically speaking, one should feel something when being Investiture of the Gods for the first time. If one truly has the authority to bestow titles, the Divine Dao Lord should have a sense of it.

"No!" Azure Cloud Master shook his head.

He was somewhat speechless; did they simply lack the authority to Investiture of the Gods?

This is not an appointment, after all...

"Do you feel anything?" Zhang Yang asked True Immortal Lichen.

True Immortal Lichen hurriedly shook his head, but he was speechless.

He thought something good was about to happen, but it turns out he was just being used as an experiment... No wonder he didn't feel anything!

"What's going on?" Zhang Yang pondered. "Master, when you Investiture of the Gods, were the responsibilities not clearly defined? How about you clearly explain the responsibilities of the Divine Dao to them?"

Although Qingyunzi found it somewhat absurd, he still very seriously issued an order to True Immortal Lichen: "I hereby appoint you as the Mountain God of Qingyun Peak. From now on, you shall bear the responsibility of guarding Qingyun Peak and protecting all living beings within your jurisdiction."

As Azure Cloud Master issued his order, both Azure Cloud Master and True Immortal Lichen revealed unusual expressions.
