Chapter 1377: Chapter 850: Immortal Emperor’s Special Approval
In Zhang Yu’s mind, the Kao Sect Avatar excitedly said: "Yu dares not presume any unprecedented reward; having the chance to serve the Immortal Emperor is already the greatest reward for me. Just to add one brick, one tile to the Emperor’s grand endeavor, I am immensely satisfied."
"If I could see the Emperor’s circle every day, see what the Emperor says and does daily, then I would be the happiest person in the world."
Suppressing the joy in his heart, Zhang Yu felt the Kao Sect Avatar’s words were quite right, and thus followed along, repeating them.
Looking at Zhang Yu’s expression full of loyalty and sectality, Dugu Ming suddenly felt some familiarity.
In the next instant, he realized, hadn’t he said similar words himself once?
Considering Zhang Yu’s various situations, now wholeheartedly loyal to the Immortal Emperor, Dugu Ming internally responded: "This kid... is somewhat like me."
"Or to say... we might be the same kind."
If you ask Dugu Ming how he feels at this moment, it might be akin to an old cat at home seeing his owner bring a new cat home, with the new cat belly-up, making all sorts of flattering gestures.
"Humph... you still want to add the Immortal Emperor as a friend?"
As thoughts raced in his mind, Dugu Ming’s face remained unchanged as he calmly said: "The Immortal Emperor doesn’t post updates."
"As for what should be given to you, the Immortal Emperor will naturally not break his word, requiring no empty speeches of allegiance from you."
After speaking, Dugu Ming extended one finger, from which a white scroll emanated from his fingertip, stretching all the way to Zhang Yu.
The scroll emitted a faint golden light, with "New Blank Law" written at the top, and at the bottom, the signature of the "Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Emperor."
As Zhang Yu was slightly stunned, Zhan Xian had already excitedly spoken in his mind: "This... this is... this is a blank law clause!"
On the other side, as Dugu Ming looked at the blank law clause, the expression of jealousy and envy in his eyes involuntarily emerged again, and he began to introduce: "This blank law clause is the Immortal Emperor’s reward for you this time."
"It is specially authorized by the Immortal Emperor. When you reach the stage of Refining Void and merge with the Dao, you can write whatever law you wish upon it."
"The Immortal Emperor said..."
Just then, a grand voice from the scroll directly entered Zhang Yu’s mind.
"When the day comes that you refine the void and merge with the Dao, I shall grant you the greatest freedom allowing you to establish an unprecedented law within the Wanfa Sect."
In Zhang Yu’s mind, the Kao Sect Avatar screamed madly: "The Immortal Emperor’s kindness is endless! Endless indeed!!"
Fu Ji noticed the commotion on Zhang Yu’s side and immediately grasped the situation, then exclaimed: "Zhang Yu! Doesn’t this mean we’ve boarded the Immortal Emperor’s promotion apparatus?"
Zhan Xian enthusiastically replied: "Blank Law! This way, we face minimal restrictions, needing no worries, allowing us to establish the most promising, most potential, and most suitable law for our circumstances!"
At this moment, gazing at the blank law clause before him, Zhang Yu felt as though he was presented with a blank check from the world’s richest person, told to fill in whatever he pleased.
With a deep inhale, Zhang Yu couldn’t resist asking: "As long as it is written on this, any law can be established?"
Dugu Ming responded: "Indeed, but the prerequisite is that you must be able to establish it. Even with the Immortal Emperor granting you the utmost freedom, whether you succeed in Refining Void and merging with the Dao is ultimately based on your own skill."
Zhang Yu clearly understood that the laws established post-refinement come with many regulations and norms, many intricacies, making it impossible to establish them however one wishes.
Aside from this, one must consider the interest relations and conflicts with various Taoist inheritances.
"Moreover, this blank law is also a peril; if discovered by others, I might become the target of all."
"And the broader the scope of the management, the wider the interests, the more terrifying the difficulty of establishing a law and the resistance faced post-establishment will be..."
Despite the immense risk it carries, Zhang Yu knew it was indeed an unprecedented reward, granting him maximum freedom during legislation.
Which led to any demands Zhang Yu initially wanted to make being swallowed back down.
Dugu Ming calmly said: "Remember this, Zhang Yu, follow the Immortal Emperor diligently; benefits will undoubtedly follow, and the day of ascension to immortality will not be far off."
"But the Immortal Emperor detests those who randomly wave his banner around; do you understand?"
Zhang Yu immediately nodded to indicate his understanding, internally thinking: "The Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Emperor... for now doesn’t wish to expose our connection, does he?"
As he looked at the blank law clause before him, a sudden epiphany dawned upon Zhang Yu: "Even though the blank law is now in my possession, to fully realize its value, it seems whether before or after establishing the law, the Immortal Emperor’s support may be crucial."
Zhang Yu knew it’s akin to a celestial bait before him, enticing any Sect Affairs Officer to fight over it.
Dugu Ming then continued: "Your foremost task henceforth is to develop the soul cultivation industry of the Old Graveyard well, ensuring our sect occupies over 20% of the market there. Once accomplished, the Immortal Emperor has another great reward."
Zhang Yu quickly responded: "Yu will brave fire and water, spare no death."
After nodding, Dugu Ming then sent a series of Spirit Realm addresses to Zhang Yu: "This is the Immortal Emperor’s secret email; send any crucial intel here."
"But remember, it has to be major issues; don’t send every trivial matter to the Immortal Emperor. For minor issues, you might inquire with me first..."
