Chapter 524 - 81: Competing with Gu Wen for Superiority
Ten thousand miles outside the Daoist Sect, in Sword State.
Ao Tang transformed into a handsome man, walking through the human realm. Having once stayed in the Immortal Land and ventured deep into mortal dynasties, he was quite familiar with human society instead of being a stranger to it.
He was well-versed in mortal matters, rules, and etiquette to the smallest details.
What he sought were suitable candidates for Earth Official positions, namely the Six Case Merit Official, Judge, the Three Divisions of the Netherworld, and countless Yin Officials.
Initially, Ao Heng thought it was a simple task, merely requiring the enshrinement of suitable people. Among the human race were many cultivators, and even more great powers with limited lifespans, there was no shortage of people.
However, he soon discovered that not everyone was suitable, as Earth Officials were not chosen based on cultivation but on Fate Diagram. Some were born with Yin Life, becoming Earth Officials after death, while some, despite having Mahayana cultivation, could not become Yin Officials.
Everything was predestined and hardly alterable.
This strictness made Ao Heng feel a bit frightened, conflicting with his past beliefs.
The Devil Clan valued bloodline, yet strength was paramount, often producing prodigies without pure bloodlines but possessing formidable skills.
Such devils would be treated with respect by the Dragon Clan. For instance, strong humans existed within Jianmu and were equally privileged.
