BXBX NOVEL Chapter 51 - 50: Unexpected Incident.
“Divine Realm?”
Xuanqing raised his eyebrows, looking at the completely formed shadow of the
Divine Realm. With a thought, his entire body disappeared into the air.
“Huh…Where did Sir go?”
“Boss Black Bear, the superior immortal must have gone to the Divine Realm!” The Black Wind Mountain’s Land God explained.
Black Bear Essence understood, then showed an embarrassed expression, “Well… 1 used to bully you a lot. Now that we’re both under Sir’s command, 1 hope you won’t hold any grudges against me.”
“Dare not, dare not! Boss Black Bear, you have profound mana and vast divine powers; how could I, a little god, dare to hold a grudge against you!” The Black Wind Mountain’s Land God hurriedly waved his hands.
For an Earth God like him, his achievements in his lifetime would stop here, while Black Bear Essence was different. Now that he followed a superior immortal, his future potential was unlimited. How could he…or rather, how dare he harbor resentment?
As for Xuanqing’s side.
After a motion of his thoughts.
He felt as if he had come to a strange space.
The structure of the houses was exactly the same as the temples and Taoist temples on the ground; it’s just that there were no divine statues on the altar, or perhaps he himself was the divine statue.
“The space is quite big but a bit weak.”
Xuanqing’s eyes were filled with curiosity. He even tried to pull the corner of a table, but he didn’t expect the corner of the table would break off like foam.
However, the broken corner of the table, after emitting some black mist, returned to its original state.
Not only that.
After the incense was absorbed in the main hall, it eventually flowed into the Divine Realm, slowly strengthening the walls of the Divine Realm.
Moreover.
Through the Divine Realm.
Xuanqing could sense that, with the Divine Realm as the center, everything within a radius of about a kilometer could be detected.
For example, inside the great hall, the old temple attendant maintaining order, and the townspeople offering incense and prayers.
Also, Black Bear Essence and the Black Wind Mountain’s Land God chatting in the clouds above.
As long as he wanted, he could clearly sense all these scenes within the range.
More importantly.
Xuanqing discovered that as long as he was in the Divine Realm, he could use a unique divine power technique that belonged to the gods.
Incense Blessing!
Incense Blessing: Condense the power of sentient beings’ incense, with faith as the medium, bless the believers, so they are untouched by catastrophe and free from evil.
“Let’s give it a try!”
Xuanqing looked through the Divine Realm and saw the old temple attendant maintaining order in the main hall.
“Incense Blessing, go!
In the main hall.
The old temple attendant’s body trembled.
The motion of handing out incense candles paused involuntarily.
The fatigue from directing everything for an entire day vanished in that moment. His entire body felt lighter, and his blurry, cloudy eyes became clearer.
“What happened, Old Temple Keeper?”
The townspeople who were receiving incense candles couldn’t help but ask with a puzzled expression.
The old temple attendant didn’t speak. Instead, he turned around, went to the futon in front of the altar, and paid a respectful tribute by kowtowing three times.
After that, he returned to his post and continued to distribute incense candles.
However, if anyone observed carefully, they would notice that compared to before, the temple attendant’s back was straighter, and his spirit seemed better.
On this side.
Xuanqing explored the Divine Realm for a while and roughly understood its various functions.
Then.
With a thought.
His body disappeared from the Divine Realm.
When he appeared again, he was still in the clouds above.
“Thank you, Sir, for blessing our temple attendant, and sorry for the trouble.”
Black Wind Town’s Land God had seen everything and thanked Xuanqing with a bow as soon as he saw him emerge from the Divine Realm.
“It’s not a problem. It’s just a little incense.”
Xuanqing waved his hand indifferently.
Hearing such casual words, the four little gods exchanged glances, astonished in their hearts.
Their superior immortal didn’t care for worldly gold and silver, which they could only use when building temples, and now he didn’t attach importance to incense either. To use the Incense Blessing, a considerable amount of incense must be consumed. At least one-fifth of the incense that the people contributed today was used up.
It seemed… their superior immortal’s temperament was truly carefree and generous.
The four Earth Gods couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.
The total population of Black Wind Town was not small, but there were not many permanent residents in the town itself.
So,
The burning of incense and worship only lasted until midday before it ended.
After giving instructions to the last of the common people, and receiving instructions from his own Earth Deity Sir, the old temple attendant of Black Wind Town’s Earth temple left the temple and Taoist temple.
Just like that,
The once bustling temple quieted down.
In the air,
Xuanqing gazed at the deserted temple, knowing that it was time for the next step: to enroll Black Bear Essence and Gentleman Bai She under his command.
It’s worth mentioning that,
this enrolling under one’s command is not as simple as saying “you worship me as the boss, and I will be your boss,” but rather requires a certain ceremony.
Now that he is a Taoist Registry Standard Ninth-rank Immortal Officer, his status has changed. After enrolling new subordinates, he needs to burn an imperial edict to report to his higher-ups.
“Black Bear, White Snake!” Xuanqing said solemnly.
“Sir!”
“Sir!”
Knowing what was about to happen, the two demons replied excitedly.
Then,
Xuanqing led the two demons into the Main Hall of the temple.
The Four Little Gods also stayed nearby. Even though nothing concerned them right now, as subordinates, they could never leave easily before the matter was completely resolved.
In the Great Hall,
On a table, there are talisman brushes, cotton cloth, inkstone, law stakes, law hammer, stamp… and other magic tools needed for the imperial edict.
Xuanqing’s body stood straight.
He held a finger gesture in his left hand and a talisman brush in his right hand.
The Immortal Official Document emerged from his body and floated in the air. Afterwards, he mobilized the Mana in his body to surge into the floating Immortal Official Document.
Hum hum-‘
A divine and celestial aura filled the Main Hall.
The four little gods who were standing in the hall sensed a tremendous pressure from all directions.
Even the Black Bear Essence and Gentleman Bai She with physical bodies couldn’t help but feel oppressed.
At this moment,
“Black Bear, hold the hammer and strike the stake!”
“White Snake, hand over the tools and talisman!”
Xuanqing’s eyes shone brightly as he shouted.
“We obey Sir’s instructions,” the two demons woke from their stupor and began to move as instructed.
Thud-
Black Bear Essence fiercely struck the law hammer, emitting a dull sound.
Seeing this,
Gentleman Bai She quickly handed over the cotton cloth used for writing the imperial edict.
“I, Xuanqing, report to the Eastern Emperor, enlist Black Bear, White Snake, to join Taiji Palace, Five Thunder Court, and Thunder City Supervisor Left Judge Xuanqing’s subordinates…”
Xuanqing’s brushstroke was like a wandering dragon as he wrote the imperial edict on the cotton cloth.
Moments later,
Black Bear Essence, who had been striking the law stake, was already sweating from his forehead.
Finally,
The imperial edict was completed.
Xuanqing put down the talisman brush and received the imperial edict from Gentleman Bai She.
“Light the candle!”
Boom-
The specially refined candlestick on the Law Stage lit up.
Seeing this scene,
Both Black Bear Essence and Gentleman Bai She trembled with excitement all over their bodies.
It’s almost there.
As long as they lit the imperial edict, they would become demons with an identity, albeit temporary workers under their Sir’s name.
But as long as their Sir was promoted, they too would rise to heaven, joining the official structure of the Taoist school wouldn’t be a dream.
At this moment,
The edict was getting closer and closer to the candlestick.
Suddenly,
An unexpected event occurred.
Woosh-
First, raging winds blew in, extinguishing the candlestick. Then, Sanskrit chanting echoed continuously, and lotus flowers floated wildly in the sky.
Two divine figures
suddenly appeared in the Main Hall..
