In the depths of the Bai Shui Dragon Palace, the surrounding waves surged violently.

The Bai Shui Divine Department was reorganized.

Thanks to the relief from the severe drought on both banks, the abundant Incense Fire Divine Power was infused into the Bai Shui Divine Department, causing its power to grow continuously.

This is why the Divine Power of the Water Realm Gods often surpasses that of other deities of the same level.

Because water and fire are merciless.

More intimidating.

Whether it's a flood or a drought.

At this moment, on the Dragon Monarch's throne, Bai Nu's face was cold as he sneered.

"That old witch is sure that I have just escaped and have no strong allies by my side, but she has made a wrong calculation this time!"

"I will make her suffer losses instead of reaping gains!"

In the grand hall, Bai Liying stood elegantly, her beautiful face showing some concern.

After several battles between the two deities, there was no conclusive outcome.

The Poison Dragon Water God's Divine Power was mighty and at its peak, giving him the upper hand in this great battle, but this is ultimately the homeland of the Bai Shui Lineage.

With the support of Bai Shui Divine Power, Bai Shui Dragon Monarch Bai Nu could also continue to fight fiercely.

But if the battle continued, it would only affect the surrounding common people. Ultimately, with the intervention of two strong figures from Dong Shen Temple, the three parties reached a wager.

The two Water Elders would no longer continue the battle but let their descendants fight instead.

Best of three matches!

If Bai Shui Dragon Monarch won, the Poison Dragon Water God would leave with the descendants of the Poison Dragon Palace, and the enmity for killing the son would be bygone.

And he must also apologize.

If the Poison Dragon Water God won, Bai Shui Dragon Monarch would not only have to apologize to the Poison Dragon Water God but also give up the Bai Shui 800 mile territory to the Poison Dragon Palace.

Giving up the 800 mile territory would be like tearing a hole in the core of the Bai Shui Lineage!

This was, in fact, an unfair wager.

But alas, facing the pressure of the Poison Dragon Palace, Bai Shui Dragon Palace was at a disadvantage.

With the situation stronger than men, if the Bai Shui Lineage refused to accept mediation, colliding two great Water Veins could heavily damage the opponent, but Bai Nu himself might have to pay with his life.

If it were before, the stubborn Bai Nu would never accept such an unfair wager.

But now, seeing the hope of continuing to live and even transforming into a dragon from Zhang Jian, he was unwilling to suffer mutual damage with the Poison Dragon Water God.

Hesitating for a moment, Bai Liying couldn't help but say, "But father, I have just stepped into the Divination Foundation Establishment stage and fear that I may disappoint your trust...!"

Seated, Bai Nu was taken aback, then looked at Bai Liying and laughed heartily.

"Daughter, there is no need to belittle yourself. Although your Dao Practice is low, you are the Well Dragon King. With the blessing of the Divine Position, your Dao Practice is actually comparable to a Golden Core Level cultivator!"

"But you are right. This contest requires you to only be a preparation!"

"Father, do you have other candidates?"

Bai Liying's charming big eyes showed some surprise.

Thinking carefully, her father had only four daughters under his knees; her other three sisters had been married a thousand years ago and were far in other Water Elements, unable to return within ten days or half a month.

Thinking and thinking again, Bai Shui Lineage's direct descendants now only had her alone.

The Bai Shui Dragon Monarch glanced at the somewhat puzzled Bai Liying and shook his head with a smile.

"I was talking about that Zhang family kid!"

"Brother Zhang?"

Bai Liying was a bit taken aback.

With a confident smile, Bai Nu said, "Brother Zhang carries the vast, bright awe-inspiring Qi, which alone can suppress many demon ghosts. As long as those monsters and ghosts come close, their minds would not function, let alone his familiarity with Magic. This battle surely can be won!"

"That old witch is bound to lose!"

Bai Nu squinted his eyes with a smile.

Bai Liying was somewhat speechless, "But didn't both Dragon Palaces agree that only direct descendants could partake in these three duels?!"

Bai Liying wore a solemn expression; this matter was under the witness of two cultivators from Dong Shen Temple, and no deceit could be done.

Hearing this, a hint of a smile appeared in Bai Nu's eyes. "That's simple; we can completely say to the outside that he is the 'husband' you have chosen!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Liying was momentarily dumbfounded, a blush instantly spread across her cheeks.

On the throne, seeing Bai Liying's little-girl expression, Bai Nu had some amusement in his eyes and deliberately asked.

"What, you are unwilling?"

Facing Bai Nu's gaze, Bai Liying replied seriously, "As long as it can help my Bai Shui Dragon Palace overcome difficulties, I'll do anything!"

Hearing this, Bai Nu laughed.

"Don't worry, this is just a stopgap measure. Father will not easily interfere with your Dao path!"

...

Phoenix Nest Mountain

In the Mountain God's Mansion, a special enfeoffment ceremony was in progress.

"Xie Wu, you died in front of Shuangfeng Mountain, in the mouth of the Tiger Demon. In consideration of your loyalty and bravery, your former master recommends you to become the Mountain Patrol Ghost General within the Shuangfeng Mountain Range, to patrol the mountains and protect the weak. Are you willing?"

Within the Divine Office, numerous strong Incense Fire Divine Light surged in, making the majestic Divine Office temple gradually clear, except for the secondary temple, side temple, Divine Prison, Incense Pool, and Merit Pool that remained blurred.

If a Divine Office truly evolved to its extremity, it could even nurture powerful Divine Dao Dharma Artifacts and Divine Dao Treasures.

But this required the support of Incense Fire Divine Power.

At this moment in the center of the Divine Office, Xiaoxie's soul was muddled, and he barely clasped his hands and agreed.

Seeing this, the Feng Ling Mountain God pointed, and a ray of Incense Fire Divine Light was immediately attached to Xie Wu, visibly transforming his ghost body into substance quickly.

His overall appearance became clearer, with strands of Incense Fire Divine Power constructing a piece of Divine Armor on him, displaying the solemnity of the Divine Dao.

His aura was also swelling, gradually nearing the Nourishing Spirit Stage cultivator!

"Thank you, Mountain Goddess!"

Looking at his current state, Xiaoxie was somewhat surprised and delighted, clasping his hands in respect.

Seeing this, Feng Ling nodded slightly, then casually pointed again as a ray of Divine Light fell deep into Xie Wu's forehead. It was a part of the heritage of the Mountain Patrol Ghost General.

This included the Cultivation Technique of the Ghost God Body and several Mountain Patrol Secret Techniques, including collecting Yin Qi, suppressing Yin Ghosts, and driving beasts.

Everything made Xiaoxie feel exceptionally wondrous.

"Go ahead, a part of your comrades is awakening within the Mountain God Department. They will be your first group of Yin Soldiers and Ghost Generals!"

"Yes!"

Xie Wu's gaze focused, with some excitement in his expression.

Seeing Xie Wu leaving, Feng Ling turned to the side with a smile, "Brother Zhang, are you satisfied?"

On one side of the Mountain God Hall, Zhang Jian stepped out and said, "This time, I owe Fellow Daoist Feng Ling a favor!"

The Feng Ling Mountain God smiled beautifully, "No, Brother Zhang, this time, I must thank you. Just look at this Mountain God's Divine Office, usually so empty and lacking even a Yin Soul or Ghost Messenger, having only Baiyang. If it weren't for Brother Zhang's willingness to help expand the Divine Office, I would have to burden myself by personally recruiting laborers from ancient tombs!"

Hearing this, Zhang Jian was somewhat embarrassed.

Even after death, being recruited as labor was too pitiful.

After exchanging a few words, they moved to the main topic.

Zhang Jian's visit this time was to extract the materials needed for refining his Lifebound Dharma Artifact from Phoenix Nest Mountain and conveniently use the Earth Fire Spring in the Dragon Palace to refine it while inspecting the Secret Technique in the Dragon Palace ruins.
