Chapter 1155 - 914: Rules, I Understand!
Huo Jun strategically drank tea, calming his mind.
He didn’t believe anything about Wilderness World, the Elder Dragon, the Azure Dragon Power, Tribulation Crossing Realm Demon Beasts, etc.
How could such good things exist in the world?
If ascension to a Divine Beast were truly without pitfalls, why would Bai Yunqi easily give it up? It’s madness!
However, the Elixir he had swallowed was genuine, indeed a top-quality advanced Elixir, something rare even during his travels around the world. The severe injuries that had troubled him for years had indeed improved five or six parts, and the remaining medicinal effects would surely restore his former vigor once refined.
No matter what, this Mr. Jiang brought by his clone had a great life-saving grace for him; even if he was crazy, he had to play along. Even if taking ten thousand steps back, everything they spoke of was for good things! It’s just about dreaming together; he’s not losing anything.
"Who wouldn’t be happy to ascend to a Divine Beast?" Huo Jun laughed. "Just not sure what price I need to pay if I want to obtain this chance?"
Finally, someone was willing!
Jiang Yuan brought out the Azure Dragon Power, solemnly asking, "Huo Jun, are you truly willing to refine the Azure Dragon Power and ascend as a Divine Beast to guard the Wilderness World?"
The other party didn’t answer, not because of regret, but because his gaze was fixated as soon as the light ball appeared. It seemed as if the whole world reduced to this deep green mysterious power, with everything else becoming unimportant.
"What kind of treasure is this?" Huo Jun murmured to himself; never in his life had he seen such an alluring Supreme Treasure!
The light ball wasn’t large but brimmed with vibrant life energy, infused with the aura of the Divine Dragon, holy and mysterious, utterly captivating!
"The gentleman is asking you a question." Bai Yunqi, seeing his hopeless expression, knew the matter was settled and felt happy for his past self.
In the End of Dharma Era, ascension had become an unattainable legend; for him to seize this opportunity to ascend as a Divine Beast wouldn’t make his millennia of cultivation in vain.
As for himself, Bai Yunqi was steadfast in his belief — he would die to serve Mr. Jiang!
"I’m willing! I’m so willing!" Huo Jun, reminded, came back to his senses, eagerly saying, "I sincerely wish to, can I really refine this Azure Dragon Power?"

"Of course." Jiang Yuan nodded and patiently asked, "Have you thought it through? Once you ascend as one of the Four Symbols Divine Beast, you must fulfill your duty to protect a side of the world safely."
Upon hearing this, Huo Jun patted his chest and laughed, "I understand the rules! Whether ascending as a god, an immortal, or a divine beast, one must take up the corresponding responsibilities.
Immortals protect a realm, with the power of heaven and earth blessing and the worship of subjects under their rule, maintaining the eternal way of heaven and earth.
If one merely ascends without an appointment, they’re just a loose immortal, vanishing completely when their immortal power dissipates. After toiling for thousands or even tens of thousands of years to ascend, becoming a loose immortal to wander for only a few centuries before fading away — what’s the point?
Rest assured, sir. If I gain this fortune, I will diligently work to protect one world in peace!"
"Loose immortals have such short lifespans? How do you know?" Bai Yunqi looked shocked.
The other slightly raised an eyebrow and said, "Kid, how many years have you lived? You’re way behind compared to me! As the saying goes: one day in heaven is one year on earth, an immortal living one day equals a year of mundane life, referring to the energy consumed.
Think about it, a loose immortal without an appointment has no additional blessings, lifespan only depletes and doesn’t increase, making their death not far away?
Only appointed legitimate gods and immortals have the chance to live as long as heaven and earth.
Of course, if appointed but neglecting duties, the Heavenly Dao is most fair, never allowing a god position to be occupied, giving opportunities to successors."
Bai Yunqi thought it made some sense but was still half convinced.
"Sir, what else must I do?" Huo Jun looked at the other with bright eyes, fearing such a great opportunity would slip away.
Jiang Yuan truthfully replied, "You need to acknowledge me as your master and follow my orders."
The other was slightly shocked, not because of acknowledging a master; with the Azure Dragon Power in his hands, certainly, there was an ulterior motive. He cautiously asked, "Acknowledging you as a master is not difficult, but if I were to truly ascend as a divine beast in the future, then as the Master of the Cyan Dragon... you..."
He thought to himself, within the myriad of small worlds, each having one of the Four Symbols Divine Beasts is abundant, yet they are also divine beasts.
To have a Divine Beast Cyan Dragon bow down and obey, wouldn’t that be the Celestial Emperor?!"
Jiang Yuan didn’t understand nor considered that much, thinking not only you, but the future Black Tortoise, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird had all acknowledged a master early on, what’s the harm? So he retorted, "What? Do you think I’m unqualified?"
"No, no, no, don’t misunderstand, sir, how dare I doubt you." Huo Jun hesitated, instead testing that this seemingly young mortal was actually a Celestial Emperor’s avatar, immediately both shocked and fearful, kneeling seriously with a flick of his long robe, "Huo Jun willingly acknowledges sir as master, from now on obeying your orders without any objection!"
[Request received: Demon Cultivator Huo Jun requests to establish a subordinate relationship, allow binding as a contract pet, process the request?]
He immediately clicked confirm, with another light ring flying out and binding the other, instantly establishing a successful relationship!

Huo Jun was still immersed in the descending Heavenly Dao Laws when he heard Jiang Yuan calling, "Come, I’ll give you something good."
