Chapter 663 - 376: Powerful Race—The Asura Clan (Part 2)
Chapter 663: Chapter 376: Powerful Race—The Asura Clan (Part 2)
The highest-ranking position is held by the Profound Immortal Xiao Yunzhou, one of the four marshals in the clan, serving as a rank-8 Commander in the Thunder Division of the Celestial Court, commanding an army of three hundred thousand Celestial Soldiers, with absolute authority.
Seventeen True Immortals, some help under Xiao Yunzhou’s command, while others hold positions in various departments, generally with ranked positions.
Unfortunately, the Celestial Court is too vast, and these people are scattered, a few here and a few there, unable to gather together.
Although there are five clan members in the Combat Division, including a True Immortal named Pan Dongsheng and four Celestial Immortals.
However, True Immortal Pan Dongsheng serves as a vice leader of a thousand under the Greedy Wolf Star Lord, ranked as a ninth-grade Celestial General, not in the same place as Su Yu’s Po Jun Star Lord.
The four Celestial Immortals hold no official positions and serve under Pan Dongsheng as captains and leaders of hundred-man teams.
The most active member is Meng Dong, serving as a liaison and coordinator for the Human Race in the Celestial Court, akin to Jin Chi’s role at Celestial Pillar Mountain. Any assistance needed from the clan can be coordinated through Meng Dong.
After their explanations, Su Yu had a slight understanding of the clan’s situation within the Celestial Court.
At this moment, Meng Dong suddenly sent a private message to Su Yu:
"Brother Su Yu, I remember the Patrol Envoy has a quota of 100 patrolling Celestial Soldiers, would you like to transfer a few clan members to help?"
"You see, Senior Xiao Yunzhou is a rank-8 Commander with seven True Immortals and dozens of Celestial Immortals under his command, assisting him in fully mastering the troops."
"Fellow Daoist Pan Dongsheng holds the position of vice leader of a thousand under the Greedy Wolf Star Lord and has also recruited some clan members for assistance."
"You can also recruit a few fellow Daoists to help, they are much more flexible than Celestial Soldiers and can help solve many troubles for you."
Surprised, Su Yu asked:
"How does this operate? Can we transfer people within the Celestial Court at will?"
"If they apply for transfer themselves, of course, it’s not easy, but what about if they’re allocated?"
Meng Dong replied with a smile:
"I’m currently the director of the New Soldier Deployment Department in the Celestial Court. No matter where the clan needs help, have them apply to the Celestial Court first, then I’ll deploy them to your Beidou Star Palace, under the command of Po Jun Star Lord, and you can then designate them to join your patrol team."
"Can it operate like this?"
"Yes."
"This should be some small benefit given by the Celestial Court to the clans, tacitly approved by the Celestial Court and won’t be obstructed."
"This is quite... interesting."
"Indeed, it’s quite interesting but very normal, after all, it allows the Celestial Court to recruit experts from various clans, enhancing the strength of the Celestial Court."
"Well, how many do you want, give me a number and I’ll contact the clan."
"Hmm...."
After a few seconds of silence, Su Yu responded:
"No need for now, we’ll talk about it when needed in the future."
"That works too."
Closing the communication, Su Yu was about to close the region channel when he suddenly thought of something and asked in the channel:
"I just saw a new race, with strong physique, red skin, ugly appearance, and horns on their heads, what race is that?"
A few seconds later, someone responded:
"It should be the Asura Race."
"This is a part of the Asura Race created by the Old Ancestor of Ming River, with an exceptionally strong racial talent, one of the highly threatening opponents."
"Oh...."
Su Yu’s expression grew serious.
"Even a top-tier Divine Techniques practitioner like the Old Ancestor of Ming River is joining this battle of destiny!"
"And has even dispatched the Asura Race."
"But speaking of which, the cultivation of the Old Ancestor of Ming River has advanced to a point where there’s no further to go; the next step is to prove the Dao and become a Saint, which in normal circumstances is impossible. Only this calamity has a Saint position, and he definitely wants to fight for it."
"Not just him, many bigwigs in the Earthly Immortal Realm who have reached this level of power probably have secretly entered the field, many races may have a Daluo Golden Immortal standing behind them."
After all, like top-tier existences such as the Old Ancestor of Ming River, who have basically severed two corpses and achieved Quasi-Saint cultivation, if their self-created race wins the final victory, they can immediately break through and ascend to Primordial Infinite Great Luo Golden Immortal.
"The responsibility is heavy and the road is long."
Su Yu suddenly felt that this civilizational war would not be as easy to win as he initially imagined.
He previously thought he could cheat the system and guarantee a sure win in the future, but now it seems uncertain.
"Current cultivation is still insufficient; at the very least, I need to prove the Dao and become a Daluo to ensure a sure victory."
After waiting not long, it was his turn, he handed the receipt to the window’s Immortal Official, who verified it and said:
"Please confirm the number of people and determine the race."
Su Yu immediately said:
"80 Celestial Soldiers, preferably of Dragon Race origin, no other requirements."
"Alright."
After confirming, the Immortal Official took out the Immortal Seal and stamped it with a series of ’bang bang’, then handed the receipt back and said:
"Now go back, the Celestial Soldiers will report to you within a week."
"Okay."
Retrieving the receipt, Su Yu turned and left.
A week passed in the blink of an eye, and a group of 80 Celestial Soldiers arrived at his residence on an immortal boat.
All from the Dragon Race, most of them were Flood Dragons, Pig Po Dragons, Dragon Whales, Chilongs, and Qiaolongs, with some being True Dragons. Their levels were all above 330, with templates ranging between elite and legendary, and the four squad leaders were all 350-level legendary template True Dragons.
The leading Immortal Official said in a deep voice:
"Everyone, being reassigned under a Patrol Envoy is definitely stronger than being a Celestial Soldier in the camp. If the Patrol Envoy you follow is capable, you will also rise with the tide, and you may even secure a ranked immortal position in the future."
"The Patrol Envoy you’re about to be reassigned to is said to come from a great sect, listen well, and you will have boundless prospects."
The Celestial Soldiers responded in unison:
"Your subordinate respectfully follows the immortal order!"
"Hmm, go on."
As the immortal boat landed, the Celestial Soldiers filed out, and soon Su Yu received the message, went out, and started the handover with a salute to the leading Immortal Official.
"He is a famous True Immortal of the Human Race."
"His pressure is stronger than most True Immortals I’ve seen, surely a great sect background."
