Indeed!
This world has long deviated from the normal trajectory, with humans reduced to two-legged sheep awaiting slaughter.
Not to ntion the zombies, even the legendary Evil Ghosts have appeared in the real world. If a Lord of Tai Mountain Prefect were to show up, it wouldn’t be so hard to accept.
"Lord of Tai Mountain Prefect, show rcy to the people. The eternal holy fire, everlasting through the ages. Shelter the multitudes in distress..."
The temple priest in charge of the Lord of Tai Mountain Prefect Temple truly lived up to his na as an expert. He was among the first to co to his senses from the shock and imdiately began preparations, dispatching people to distribute flyers and holding grand ceremonies daily to proclaim the teachings of the Lord of Tai Mountain Prefect.
Although he didn’t know exactly what thods Zheng Yi used to make the miracle happen, and they were even less clear whether the Lord of Tai Mountain Prefect, this deity-like existence, truly existed.
But this event was undoubtedly the best opportunity to promote the Lord of Tai Mountain Prefect Temple. If he didn’t seize such a good opportunity, he’d feel he was wasting his deceitful skills and had no right to be a temple priest.
With the tacit approval of the settlent’s higher-ups and appropriate guidance, the Gourd Temple and the Lord of Tai Mountain Prefect Temple quickly beca the liveliest places in the settlent. The number of believers surged in a short period, and the incense was incredibly prosperous.
The temple promoted the equality of believers, did not accept any donations, only requiring true prayers twice daily at the temple.
Moreover, the temple directly distributed a certain amount of food to believers in difficult situations to ensure their livelihoods.
However, so ambitious people saw the opportunity and began stirring up trouble in secret. Even small sects started to erge.
But soon, these actions t with a devastating crackdown from the upper echelons of the settlent, using thunderous thods, showing no rcy.
Zheng Yi found these people quick-witted, but he utterly loathed the idea of them taking advantage of his hard work.
He had painstakingly arranged everything for so long, and it was harvest ti. There was no way he’d let others profit at his expense. The Power of Belief in the settlent was only his to collect.
This was the baseline, and also the iron law of the settlent. Zheng Yi intended to implent this iron law precisely throughout the settlent’s constantly expanding journey, perhaps eventually expanding it worldwide, truly creating a deity nad the Lord of Tai Mountain Prefect.
Thus, soon the settlent issued a new decree: the Lord of Tai Mountain Prefect Temple was the only legitimate religious sect in the settlent, with the Five Directions Spirit Child of the Gourd Temple under the Lord of Tai Mountain Prefect, belonging to divine attendants and also subordinate deities.
Aside from this, any secret sects gathered by any person or force without permission were considered cults. If discovered, they would be severely punished, with minor offenders expelled from the settlent and major offenders directly losing their lives.
...
The number of believers rapidly surged, and the Power of Incense at the Lord of Tai Mountain Prefect Temple increased significantly each day.
However, Zheng Yi needed a true deification campaign. This apparent total wasn’t enough; it was actually just a drop in the bucket.
In the history of the Great Yi City Immortal Realm, many ancient dynasties attacked the mountain to demolish temples, where the incense accumulation of so mountain gods with so Dao Practice, ancestral spirits, and dark lords asured ti in a century or even centuries.
The Path of the Divine Dao, although the goal is clear and the orthodoxy established, wasn’t necessarily a broad and open road. The divine path was obscure and required prolonged efforts to yield minor achievents.
However, Zheng Yi wasn’t in a hurry since accumulating the Power of Incense was originally a long-term process.
After resolving the issue of believers for the Lord of Tai Mountain Prefect Temple and Gourd Temple, he handed off follow-up matters to the higher-ups of the settlent.
Zheng Yi intensified his cultivation. The path of the Incense Fire Divine Soul was just an adjunct channel to him; he had no intention of following it himself. Therefore, the god he worshiped was primarily through the Five Viscera Temple Feeding God Technique, naly the five Spirit Infant Sword Embryos.
As a Cultivator, the cultivation of his own Cultivation was the most important. Zheng Yi didn’t stop for a mont and turned to the area where Blood Lotus Seeds were cultivated.
After so ti of expansion, the Blood and Flesh Lotus Pool now covered four to five acres, serving as a source of cultivation for the many Blood Warriors and Superpower Users in the settlent.
The Blood Rice provided the necessary food, while Blood Lotus Seeds were extrely valuable cultivation resources, which required Contribution Points to exchange for and risked life to obtain.
Ultimately, the acquired resources were returned to the settlent, making the settlent’s power expand more broadly. Separated Zombie Flesh was directly sent to the Blood and Flesh Lotus Pool to cultivate Blood Lotus Seeds.
With the continuous replenishnt of Zombie Flesh, the Blood Lotus thrived. The lotus leaves rose skyward, many Blood Lotus Seedpods were already filled with seeds.
Zheng Yi plucked a Blood Lotus Seedpod, clearly feeling the Blood Qi within had decreased significantly. The surface showed signs of drying, lacking the initial smooth texture like glossy jade.
He tore open the Blood Lotus Seedpod, and one by one, translucent Blood Lotus Seeds tumbled out. Holding one in his palm, Zheng Yi gazed at it.
In an instant, he saw the reason: the Blood Qi hadn’t dissipated but rather condensed into the Blood Lotus Seeds, becoming solidified through the Blood Lotus Seeds into precious Blood dicine.
With a slight shake, it seed he could see warm red liquid flowing slowly inside; the purifying Zombie Flesh eventually gave birth to this special form of Blood Lotus Seed.
"Solidifying into liquid, crystallizing solid!"
"Blood dicine? Blood Crystal?"
"Or perhaps... a combination of both."
This was recently found by Zheng Yi from the Cultivation Miscellaneous Records of the Great Yi City Immortal Realm, recorded in a text collected by the Qi Family caravan. It was a Blood Demon Dao treasure dicine refined after significant purification.
In the Great Yi City Immortal Realm, it was much more precious than Qi Replenishing Pills or Nourishing Essence Pills. Regardless of Righteous Dao or Demon Dao, every cultivator needed pure blood essence supplents.
Not only could it promote bodily evolution, but also heal cultivation injuries, essential for household and wilderness adventures, and it had no side effects or dicinal toxicity.
However, this item could only be enjoyed by Zheng Yi himself. He dared not take it back to the Great Yi City Immortal Realm; given the current power of the Qi Family, they couldn’t protect sothing like this.
Throwing a seed into his mouth, Zheng Yi gently bit down with his teeth, instantly unleashing a surge of Blood Qi in his mouth, rushing down his throat.
