After discussing the bizarre plants, Jiang Jun finally asked about the specifics of the Mirror World's descent.
Su Tie glanced at Cai Liang and Zhao Jing, and hesitated slightly.
Jiang Jun waved his hand, signaling the two to take the two little ones and leave the cat cafe to stroll around the neighborhood.
After the two had walked away, Su Tie's expression turned solemn, and he bowed to Jiang Jun: "If it weren't for your heroic efforts this time, Senior, Qingjiang City would have been in danger of destruction. On behalf of the Bureau of Divine Miracles, I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to you."
Jiang Jun sighed: "There's no need for that. I only did my bit. The main danger was borne by your Divine and Mysterious Division."
After all, of the four lord-level monsters back then, he only managed to stop one; the main force had always been the Department of Mysteries.
Su Tie said solemnly, "If we really talk about it, the role played by the talisman was the greatest in this catastrophe. You deserve the greatest credit for this."
After he said that, Jiang Jun stopped refusing and accepted it readily.
Su Tie said, "I suppose you know that this great calamity is far more than just the Mirror Realm's upheaval and its arrival in reality."
"Both the Ghost Realm of Southern Tibet in our country and the Ghost Realm of Area 51 in the Star River Federation have seen the arrival of the Great Ghost Abyss, who want to overturn the real world."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jun frowned slightly.
The so-called "Great Ghost" refers to beings above the Lord-level Ghosts, and within the Ghost Master system, it is above the Transcendent Realm.
As far as he knows, there are no such powerful beings in the world. If they were to descend, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Su Tie took a deep breath: "In order to deal with the Great Demon, the Star River Federation brought out its national treasure, the Seven Virtues Crown and the Seven Sins Nails, and sacrificed two extraordinary fifth-level experts to finally stop the Great Demon."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jun also felt a chill run down his spine.
He found even a newly ascended lord-level toad quite troublesome to deal with, let alone a fifth-level transcendent toad.
He couldn't even imagine what kind of power such a being possessed.
"That great demon of the Southern Tibetan Ghost Realm was forced to retreat. My talisman must have played a significant role, right?" Jiang Jun probed subtly.
This is the conclusion he drew by simply working backward from the fact that the golden light had returned like a waterfall.
Su Tie's eyes were full of respect: "Senior, you are the pioneer of the Way of Suppressing Things, this is indeed impossible to hide from you."
"Our two big shots from the Department of Mysteries used magical artifacts to draw a prison on the ground, turning the entire ghostly realm of southern Tibet into a prison."
"Where there are cells, there are windows. Those two made a large number of 'mysterious prohibitions' and hung them in the ghost realm of southern Tibet, then amplified them with divine artifacts, directly shielding that great ghost."
"This time, apart from the energy accumulated by the divine artifacts, we forced the Great Demon to retreat with almost no casualties. It can be said that we repelled the enemy without a fight."
"Not only this time, but the last time there was an uprising in the ghost realm of western Sichuan, the same method was used to send another great ghost away."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jun suddenly understood: "I knew it! How could a mere clone of a town possibly accumulate such great merit? It turns out it's due to the mechanism's restraint!"
He suddenly realized that his use of the talisman was still quite rudimentary, especially his understanding of its operating mechanism, which remained too superficial.
In other words, the "Divine Chicken Talisman" is used to counter low-level situations like the Five Poisons.
As for "Gui Bu Xu", he mostly used it to conceal his whereabouts in reality, never expecting it to have such a great use!
"As expected, cultivating a good relationship with the Bureau of Mysteries was the right move." He nodded to himself.
Speaking of the mysterious realm in southern Tibet, Su Tie's expression turned serious: "Senior, our Chief Deng of the Supernatural Affairs Bureau asked me to convey a promise to you."
Jiang Jun felt a chill run down his spine: "What promise?"
Su Tie solemnly said, "Once you officially open your path and trigger the calamity of the Abyss, the entire Divine Bureau will do everything in its power to help you successfully open your path!"
This is not just about repaying kindness, but also about planning for the long term!
Jiang Jun remained silent for a moment before nodding slightly: "In that case, I shall accept your offer."
Having broken through to the Transcendent Realm and unlocked the fifth page of the Folklore Notebook, he was about to venture into the Abyss of Ghosts to unleash a calamity. With the assistance of the Divine Bureau, his chances of success would undoubtedly increase significantly.
As for the tribulation of opening the path, Jiang Jun couldn't bother to cover up that lie for the time being.
There's always a way out; things will work themselves out. We can only take it one step at a time.
After learning the inside story of the Great Ghost of the Abyss's attempt to descend from Su Tie, Jiang Jun felt a sense of urgency and asked about the methods for dealing with the Lord-level ghosts of the Divine Mystery Division.
After a long silence, Liu Yan spoke up: "I knew you were concerned about that Lord-level Mystic Tree. Don't worry, we'll keep it."
Jiang Jun: "————" No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!
Liu Yan added, "As for that three-headed dog and that mountain of flesh, we plan to directly use the Chen Wangjian sword to trigger a conflict with the rules of the Ghost Abyss and annihilate them."
"After all, monsters cannot be tamed and are of no use to be kept alive. It is better to kill them sooner rather than later, obtain a few lord-level monster artifacts, and cultivate a few more extraordinary beings."
Jiang Jun extracted useful information: Only by using divine objects to trigger the rules of conflict and by engaging in a battle between worlds can the lord-level monster be destroyed?
This is indeed quite difficult.
After all, those two faint-light-level Brahma Lotus seeds were clearly not enough to cause such a commotion.
Just then, Liu Yan took out a jade box from her storage bag: "This time, when the Qingjiang Ghost Realm descended, Senior's 'When the Rooster Crows, the World Turns White' technique was a great help to us."
"Upon learning of this, the provincial authorities specially sent this treasure as a token of our gratitude. We urge you to accept it."
When Jiang Jun opened the jade box, he found a simple, gray bamboo slip inside, engraved with seven large seal characters.
Jiang Jun recognized it immediately; it clearly read: "The Master did not speak of strange phenomena, physical prowess, disorder, or spirits!"
Judging from the aura of this bamboo slip, it far surpasses that of the two Brahma Lotus Seeds, and may have already reached the third tier: Rising Sun level.
Judging from its grade alone, it is only equivalent to an elite-level monster.
However, in terms of value, a mere elite-level strange object is not even a fraction of the value of this bamboo slip.
"This is—?" Jiang Jun admitted that he was indeed somewhat tempted.
Liu Yan said sincerely, "To be honest, this bamboo slip was unearthed thirty years ago along with the 'Chen Wang Slip' from our company."
"Later, the secrets of the Chen Wang Jian were deciphered by a senior colleague in our company, allowing it to manifest its great power. It remained in Qingjiang City, becoming a treasured artifact of the company."
"This bamboo slip has never met its destined owner and has been stored in the provincial treasury. When the higher-ups learned that you had deciphered the secrets of the lotus seed, they thought that this treasure might also be destined for you, so they sent us to deliver it as a token of our gratitude."
Jiang Jun was actually a little embarrassed, after all, protecting Qingjiang City was also protecting his hometown.
But he really needed this magical object.
"I couldn't refuse your kind offer, so I accepted it." He accepted the bamboo slip with an air of nonchalance.
