Chapter 114: Opening Incense and Building a Temple, the Power of Faith
The elder of the Shenxing Hall came over and quietly reminded the Holy Son that this set of rhetoric was not enough to judge Qin Mu!
This elder is not a follower of the Holy Son, nor does he stand on any side. Everything he does is based on the Sword Sect.
Qin Mu is innocent, so the Shenxingtang cannot torture him into confessing. Even if the Holy Son secretly signals him, he cannot take any action.
But the elder of the Shenxing Hall did not see that after he finished speaking, the Son of God's expression became somewhat ferocious, and his obscure eyes seemed to want to drag Qin Mu into this endless abyss.
They made such a big fuss and invited many elders to take sides, but in the end they said that Qin Mu was innocent?
After that, how could Qin Mu fall into his hands, and when could he be suppressed?
"Since Qin Mu is innocent, I think we should end this interrogation. Let's all just go about our business. We still have a lot of internal affairs to deal with!"
Some elders who did not want to offend the Son of God, nor do they want to be at odds with Elder Ying's side, began to smooth things over. They wanted the matter to end in nothing, which was the outcome they wanted to see.
Just as many elders stood up and left, a disciple from the mountain gate came and reported to the Holy Son:
"Sir, the envoys from the Daqian Dynasty in Zhongdu have come to pay their respects to the mountain and say..."
"They said they wanted to invite Gu Chenxi to Zhongdu for a small gathering!"
The disciples of the mountain sect reported carefully. They all knew that the Holy Son had always been interested in Gu Chenxi. They were afraid that the Holy Son would get angry and implicate innocent people in matters related to Gu Chenxi.
"Shouldn't you go to Yuzhu Peak and look for the people from Yaochi Holy Land? Why are you asking me?"
The Holy Son, who was still angry about not punishing Qin Mu, became even more furious when he heard that someone from the Daqian Dynasty was coming.
They had not had any dealings with the Daqian Dynasty for many years, but this time the other party came and actually invited Gu Chenxi by name!
The deep meaning behind this is intriguing, and the Son of God is even more reluctant to agree, but Gu Chenxi is not his disciple of the Sword Sect.
"Haha, Saint Son, you are so polite. I have already discussed this with Yao Chi Holy Land. However, for something like this, I must obtain Saint Son's approval!"
Before he could say anything else, he saw an envoy in court robes, holding a scepter and axe, walking into the hall.
Even though there was no sign of cultivation on his body, the messenger still held his head high and chest out in front of the Holy Son, without any humility.
This is the foundation of the Daqian Dynasty, and it is also the confidence that the Daqian Dynasty gives to the envoys!
Qin Mu looked the envoy up and down. At a close distance, he could see that although the envoy did not have much cultivation, he was equipped with many treasures.
The court robes were at least of the Xuan-grade quality, and the axe in his hand also had the power to suppress space.
If he encounters danger, the messenger can activate the treasures on his body without any consumption to teleport him back to the imperial capital of the Daqian Dynasty!
"If I say no, will you, Daqian, just let it go?"
The Son of God had a frosty face. Although he was unhappy with the messenger, he could not take the initiative to attack.
Although the Daqian Dynasty is no longer as prosperous as it once was, the means left by the founding emperor can still allow the dynasty to stand.
With such an existence, even if the Sword Sect were to engage in a fight with it rashly, it would probably suffer heavy losses. It is not worth trying.
"Holy Son, you wouldn't do that. After all, our King Changping has promised that if you agree, we will build a temple for you in our imperial capital."
"My people in Daqian number more than a hundred million. I don't think the Holy Son can refuse the power of their faith, right?"
The envoys did not avoid others and negotiated directly with the Son of God. If the other party agreed, they would do what they said.
"A temple? How would that help?"
Qin Mu, who was listening to the envoy's words, had a confused mind. He really couldn't understand why the Daqian Dynasty would make such a promise?
But looking at the expression of the Holy Son, it was obvious that he was extremely attracted to establishing a sect and a temple for him. At this moment, his eyes were shining with brilliance, and he wished that the Holy Son could personally supervise the casting.
This matter has nothing to do with the Holy Son, but the Daqian Dynasty took the initiative to approach him, which must be because they want to make friends with the Holy Son.
But thinking of the behavior of Prince Liu Xi before, Qin Mu felt a little resistant. He was unwilling to let Gu Chenxi take the risk of going to Zhongdu.
Liu Xi was like this alone. Who knows what the royal family of the Daqian Dynasty would be like?
"The envoy is free to do as he pleases. Yaochi Holy Land and our Sword Sect are allies, not vassals. Since Senior Master Zhenhong agrees, I will certainly not stop him!"
The Holy Son changed the subject and his furrowed brows slowly relaxed. At this moment, he seemed to have forgotten Qin Mu's existence.
The current scene was just an exchange between the envoy and the Holy Son. Upon seeing this, Elder Ying took Qin Mu out of the hall.
"Elder, why is he so excited about building a temple for the Holy Son?"
"Besides, shouldn't temples be built for the dead?"
After leaving the hall, Qin Mu asked Elder Ying about everything that had happened since he came into contact with the inner workings of the Sword Sect. He seemed to be a little confused.
Burning incense and building a temple for a living person, this unlucky practice not only did not make the Son of God angry, but instead made him forget his previous troubles?
"You also heard from the messenger that after the temple is built, it will be worshipped by the people with incense, and within it, a mysterious power of faith will be generated."
"This power of faith may seem illusory, but it can provide infinite help to cultivators. Now that the Holy Son's cultivation has stagnated, he naturally wants to intercept the power of faith between heaven and earth and use it for himself..."
Elder Ying had a serious expression on his face. The power of faith was originally a legend among the ascetics, but with an absolute number of offerings, the power of faith could really be born!
At that time, the Holy Son enshrined in the temple will also be regarded as a god. With the admiration of all people, the Holy Son will naturally be in harmony with heaven and earth, and the power of faith will make his cultivation advance again!
"So magical? Looks like I'll have my own temple in the future!"
After hearing what Elder Ying said, Qin Mu immediately became yearning. If he could have a little communication with the great Dao of heaven and earth, his cultivation speed would be even faster!
With the ancient holy body and the five elements spiritual roots, if he also has the power of faith, wouldn't Qin Mu take off?
"Don't ever imitate that!"
Elder Ying shouted, interrupting Qin Mu's sweet dream, and then he continued:
"The universe is mysterious. You may not believe in anything, but you must have a sense of awe!"
"In order to improve my cultivation a little, I have to intercept the power of faith. When I get hurt, it will be too late to regret!"
Elder Ying was very secretive about this matter. In ancient times, his Ying clan was also a dominant force, so naturally more information would be passed down.
The power of faith is indeed a good thing, but if you harbor other thoughts, this trace of mysterious existence will become a death warrant!
Qin Mu knew that Elder Ying had no selfish motives, so he discarded the idea. He was going back to the mansion and talking to Gu Chenxi about Daqian's invitation.
He didn't want Gu Chenxi to go, at least, he didn't want Gu Chenxi to take the risk alone!
As soon as he arrived at the upper pavilion area, Qin Mu saw a long row of mahogany boxes in front of his house. Even though the boxes were sealed, the faint light of the treasures inside still flowed out from the gaps.
