Creak-
Daoist priest Xuanqing opened the door of the Taoist temple, set up the wooden sign he had made earlier, and then looked down the mountain.
Most of the incense guests were young men and women, with a few middle-aged people among them, but not a single elderly person to be seen.
But, on second thought,
Although Qingping Mountain is not as tall and steep as Mount Tai, Five Mountains, the path here is not easy to walk. Even for young people, it takes one or two hours of non-stop walking, let alone the elderly.
In his memory, for such a long time, it seemed that only an old lady had come up the mountain to burn incense.
It seems that the path needs to be repaired better in the future.
After waiting for about half an hour,
The first wave of incense guests had entered the Taoist temple.
They followed the signpost to the main hail and saw Xuanqing sitting on the cushion.
What a man with an immortal and unworldly air!
Although they had seen him many times on the internet through videos, they were still amazed by his transcendent temperament when they met him in person.
Upon seeing this,
Xuanqing frowned slightly.
These people climb such a high mountain, didn’t come to burn incense, but just kept staring at himself?
“Fellow laymen, the QR code for burning incense is right next to you!”
Upon hearing the sound,
Everyone suddenly realized their mistake, showed a look of embarrassment, and ran to the side to scan the code and get an incense stick.
It’s worth mentioning that,
In order to avoid explaining to each incense guest one by one,
The instructions at the entrance had already added these two points of attention: “Incense for two yuan” and “Please pay homage to the main god of the Taoist temple first”.
After waiting for these people to finish burning incense and accumulating a certain amount of incense on the ancestral tablets,
Just like before,
Xuanqing used his mana to create a large hand to scoop up the incense floating above his own tablet.
“Exchange for Ingots!”
[Ingot+35]
He continued to wait for the next wave of incense guests, repeat the previous actions, collect the incense and exchange it for ingot.
Next,
With the passage of time,
Not only did the number of people coming to burn incense not decrease, but it became more and more.
Like the first wave of incense guests, most of the people who came to offer incense would keep looking at Xuanqing as if they were looking at a rare treasure.
Even some bold people would ask Xuanqing if he knew martial arts and express their willingness to pay him to demonstrate his lightness skill again.
In the face of these requests,
Xuanqing naturally smiled and shook his head in refusal.
If he met thick-faced or sinister people, his powerful aura would immediately envelop them, leaving them horrified and eventually leaving in dismay.
In the afternoon,
Incense guests were still coming continuously.
Xuanqing slightly paused his movements,
He sensed a familiar aura, and the owner of this aura had been lingering at the entrance of the Taoist temple without coming in.
“As soon as 1 was thinking about it, someone delivers a pillow!”
Xuanqing looked at the many incense guests in the main hall, and thought it would be a good idea to have this person come in and help maintain order.
Undoubtedly,
Standing outside the door of the Taoist temple was Yang Ying, who had skipped work at the company and rushed to the temple in a hurry.
At this moment,
Yang Ying looked at the endless stream of people and couldn’t help feeling anxious.
Based on her understanding of the Daoist Priest, she knew that he was a person with a weak attachment to fame and fortune and a desire for a quiet, simple life.
Suddenly, so many people came up the mountain, wouldn’t that disturb the Daoist priest’s meditation?
Although she was not the cause of this situation, it was the members of the group chat she had created who had caused it, so she still had joint responsibility.
Just as she was feeling extremely uneasy,
Suddenly,
“Miss Yang Ying, can you help me with a task?”
A gentle voice, as smooth as jade, sounded from behind her and reached her ears.
“All… Daoist priest Xuanqing, I… help?” Yang Ying was startled, then recovered her senses.
“Please follow me to the main hall.”
With that,
Xuanqing led her into the main hall, “There are too many incense guests, and I can’t handle them all. Miss Yang Ying, could you help me maintain some order?”
“Oh, sure, no problem.”
It was only after seeing the chaotic scene in the main hall that Yang Ying came to her senses.
She quickly went to the incense offering area.
She maintained order and informed the people offering incense about the rules, such as burning three sticks of incense and bowing three times to the main god, and burning nine sticks of incense for the Three Pure Ones and bowing nine times.
Soon after,
The originally messy main hall became orderly.
As a former journalist, she was more than capable of handling this type of situation.
With Yang Ying’s help,
Xuanqing finally had a break.
His nature was not very outgoing, and he was not adept at dealing with such miscellaneous tasks.
If it were not for the fact that these people could bring incense for him and help recharge it into ingots, he would have considered closing down the Taoist temple.
Time came to the afternoon,
“Exchange ingots!”
[Beep- Ingot+42]
[Player’s incense accumulates to 1000 points, promoted to Standard Rank Nine Immortal Official!]
[New feature unlocked: Jue Sheng Qi Zhi!]
???
Hearing these two additional prompts in his mind,
Xuanqing froze for a moment.
Originally, he only considered the “incense” as a means of recharging ingots for hang-up cultivation and didn’t pay much attention to it.
However, he didn’t expect that the total incense accumulation would not only lead to the promotion of the Immortal Official Record when it reached one thousand, but also unlock a new feature.
“Promoted, and also unlocked a new feature. Based on the literal meaning of
Jue Sheng Qi Zhi, it seems to be related to wisdom. Could it be…”
Xuanqing secretly speculated in his heart.
The next moment,
Information about Jue Sheng Qi Zhi emerged in his mind.
[Jue Sheng Qi Zhi]: Consumes 1 ingot per second, greatly improves the player’s comprehension!
“Hiss-”
Xuanqing’s eyes widened as he took a sharp breath.
Ever since he began his cultivation, he rarely experienced such strong emotional fluctuations as he did now.
Putting aside the usefulness of the[Jue Sheng Qi Zhi]feature for now, the ‘consume 1 point per second’ factor alone was quite frightening.
How alarming is that?
It consumes 60 points in just one minute and 3600 points in one hour.
You should know,
to activate the hang-up cultivation feature, it only consumes 1 ingot per day, and with the time ratio between the two worlds, it’s no more than 10 ingots in total.
“I’ll test the[Jue Sheng Qi Zhi]in a while, to see whether it’s worth this massive consumption. But first, let’s see how many ingots are left!”
Xuanqing’s eyes flickered,
and with a thought he said,
“Open Character Panel!”
[Name]: Xuanqing
[Grade]: Selected Students of Taiji Palace, Wulei Academy, Left Judge, and Granary Thunderbolt Affairs Official (Ninth Rank)
[Cultivation Method]: Food-Qi Decree
[Divine Ability]: Cloud Stepping Travel (Beginner)
[Ingot]: 826
Looking at the information on the character panel,
In the ‘Grade’ column, the original ‘Five Thunder Institute Right Judge’ had become ‘Five Thunder Institute Left Magistrate’, and the ninth rank became the standard ninth rank.
However,
The usefulness of the promotion of the Immortal Official Record was unknown for the time being.
Xuanqing’s main focus was on the ‘Ingot’ column..
