If you cast a spell with ascend, you don't get the city's blessing until it resolves. Players may respond to that spell by trying to change whether you get the city's blessing.

2018-01-19wotc

Once you have the city's blessing, you have it for the rest of the game, even if you lose control of some or all of your permanents. The city's blessing isn't a permanent itself and can't be removed by any effect.

2018-01-19wotc

A permanent is any object on the battlefield, including tokens and lands. Spells and emblems aren't permanents.
