Chapter 840: Get the Secret and Find Another Job

Although the three had left Qiling Province quickly with the help of the power of the earth veins.

But they could still sense the huge roar and vibration coming from the running of the earth veins.

It was like a huge wave hitting from behind. Even Lin Ling, who was protected by the power of the ancient tree of the earth veins, was forced to shake and deviate from the original direction.

It is conceivable how terrifying the movement in Qiling Province was.

Not only the neighboring states, but even the distant Congyun Sea.

All felt a slight vibration.

On Haixuan Island.

The Congyun Sea Mutual Aid Association, which already had 18 cultivators, was originally discussing the organization's future plans.

But at this moment, everything was quiet in an instant.

Everyone looked at each other, surprised and doubtful.

"Hmm? Just now, it shouldn't be my illusion, right?" He Zhenghao asked with a somewhat uncertain look.

Fellow Daoist He is indeed a wise man who knows the times.

Although he missed the opportunity to join the association for the first time. But when he confirmed that the news that Pei Tuo had successfully ascended to the Nascent Soul stage was true, he immediately visited Ji Shaoli again.

Even though he was rejected for seven days, he still did not give up.

Instead, he kept sending messages, expressing his strong desire to join the association.

In the end, Ji Shaoli was moved by his sincerity.

He Zhenghao also became one of the second batch of eleven cultivators to join the Congyunhai Mutual Aid Association.

Ji Shaoli stroked his beard and said nothing.

Pei Tuo, who had the highest cultivation among the crowd, looked at the direction of Qilingzhou with a solemn expression: "It's not an illusion. Even here, we can feel the earth trembling slightly. It seems that the matter is not small."

"It's terrible. I don't know how many cultivators will die tragically in this disaster."

"Could it be that the war has started again?"

...

Everyone was talking about it.

In the end, Ji Shaoli, who was always paying attention to the movements of the Immortal Alliance, read out the official announcement as soon as possible.

"An earthquake occurred in Qiling Prefecture, and a Hedao monk rushed to the scene as soon as possible."

"The earthquake has gradually subsided, and no monks have died."

"After preliminary investigation, the possibility of subsequent disasters has been ruled out."

"No need to be nervous..."

After reading slowly, Ji Shaoli looked at the people in the room: "Everyone, what do you think?"

Xiang Xin snorted coldly: "Such a big disaster, saying that no monks have died. Who would believe it?"

A monk on the spot agreed: "Yes. In my opinion, the Immortal Alliance is deliberately whitewashing the peace."

"It's really getting more and more outrageous, and they are too lazy to even make up a story?"

...

The reaction of the crowd was within Ji Shaoli's expectations.

If it weren't for the fact that I and my group were the initiators of the earthquake in Qiling Prefecture, I'm afraid he would never believe that such a terrible disaster would not have such absurd things as casualties among monks.

However, he did not mean to stand up and correct it.

Ji Shaoli smiled and said, "Okay, let's stop discussing this matter. It's okay to talk about it among ourselves, but it's better to keep it to ourselves when we are outside. Otherwise, it will easily cause unnecessary trouble."

No one present was a fool. He nodded immediately.

Ji Shaoli also brought the conversation back to the main topic.

"It's not that the organization doesn't trust you. It's really a matter of great importance. If it is leaked, I'm afraid everyone here will die."

"Therefore, you need to swear an oath in front of the statue of [Rescue the Suffering, the True Immortal of Red Dust Compassion]."

Ji Shaoli placed a red contract with a strange aura in front of everyone.

Pei Tuo took the first oath without hesitation and engraved his name on the contract.

The others followed suit.

Ji Shaoli nodded with satisfaction and put away the red contract.

Asked: "What do you think of the upcoming Immortal Alliance exam?"

Everyone was slightly stunned, and for a moment they didn't know what Ji Shaoli meant.

Because everyone present had already worked in the Immortal Alliance system.

Although this exam was very grand and half of the positions were expanded. But they were out of luck.

Unless...

They resigned from their positions now and re-applied as white-collar workers.

This kind of thing has happened in the past.

Only if you are very dissatisfied with your current position. And for a long time, there is no hope of promotion.

And the ambitious cultivators will do this.

After all, the exam is not easy. Who can guarantee that they can successfully re-enter the exam after resigning from their original position?

And doing so would offend their former superiors.

If they fail to successfully pass the exam again, they may have to consider leaving their hometown and seeking refuge.

If they are not absolutely confident, almost no one will choose this approach that is like a heroic act.

Seeing that everyone in the field was silent, Ji Shaoli did not explain it first.

Instead, they distributed the jade slips to everyone.

After checking them, everyone frowned.

They could see that the content in the jade slips was the format of the big test questions.

"Could it be..."

Thinking of Ji Shaoli's mysterious behavior before.

And the hidden and terrifying background of the Mutual Aid Association.

A guess appeared in everyone's mind.

"Is it possible?"

Soon, they all shook their heads secretly and rejected it.

The big test questions for the Immortal Alliance are the most confidential.

Even if they secretly complained from time to time that the Immortal Alliance was corrupt. But for so many years, they have never heard of the big test questions being leaked.

Although there is definitely a big force behind the mutual aid association.

But...

The scene was dead silent for a moment.

It was Ji Shaoli who spoke up and confirmed the guess they dared not even think about.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the content of this year's exam should be in this jade slip."

The words were very light.

But they sounded like thunder in everyone's ears.

Many cultivators stood up on the spot and looked at Ji Shaoli in astonishment.

"Fellow Daoist Ji, are you serious?"

"When have I ever lied to you?" Ji Shaoli said firmly.

There was a moment of silence, giving everyone time to slowly accept the huge shock.

Ji Shaoli looked at He Zhenghao and others with different expressions, and said again: "Although with the support of the organization, everyone's strength will surely improve by leaps and bounds in a short period of time. But it is still difficult to get promoted."

"After all, those who are willing to join our mutual aid association will not have any strong background."

"Besides, Congyunhai is a remote place. It cannot be compared with the prosperous state in the center of the Immortal Alliance."

...

After Ji Shaoli explained the reason for helping everyone.

He asked: "Here are the real questions of the big exam. I wonder which Taoist friends are willing to fight for it?"

As soon as these words came out, the venue fell into a dead silence.

From the expressions on everyone's faces, their inner entanglement can be seen.

"It is just to provide help to all Taoist friends. It depends on you to make your own decisions, and I will never force you." Ji Shaoli added with a smile.
