Chapter 1858

Nation's Fate World.

A resplendent, luxurious building resembling the Forbidden City stood at the center of the city.

"This is the temple!"

"It covers one hundred and twenty thousand mu, about one-sixth the size of the Forbidden City. Now, basically every city center has a temple this large — they're considered the landmark buildings of each city."

As Luo Wei walked, he explained in his heart, and the chat group converted what he said in his mind into sound and played it out.

As Luo Wei turned the livestream camera toward the temple, the crowd saw streams of worshippers and curling wisps of incense smoke inside.

One by one, citizens harboring all manner of thoughts entered the temple to burn incense and pay their respects — the scene was extremely lively.

Su Xiao: "You built it fast, on your side!"

Luo Wei: "Because the country takes this very seriously. The great affairs of a nation lie in sacrifice and war — if gods truly exist, the country would naturally put forth its sincerity in handling this matter."

Luo Wei: "Besides, science is relatively advanced on my side. A temple of this scale would have taken over a decade to build in ancient times, but on my side it went up far too quickly."

Bai Suzhen: "How magnificent! Is this really just a temple? It's even more splendid than my imperial palace!"

Alice: "So pretty — even prettier than the house of the richest person on my side. Brother Luo Wei, can I come over and see it?"

Luo Wei: "Of course, anyone who wants to come over is welcome to come play."

Just as he was speaking, the scene shifted.

Alice appeared in the frame — golden hair, sky-blue eyes, giving off a pure, flawless impression.

Standing in front of the temple, it was even more breathtaking than watching the livestream.

Alice was utterly stunned.

Only when Luo Wei spoke did she come back to her senses. She followed the crowd into the temple, chattering nonstop, and stuck a stick of incense into the incense burner.

The temple's layout was very particular: the main hall displayed the statues of Daoist Lord Taixuan, Houtu, and Nüwa.

Daoist Lord Taixuan occupied the center, with the two standing on either side.

As for the side halls, they enshrined the great gods of legend throughout the heavens — for instance, Yun Xiao, Erlang the True Lord, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven…

These deities all shared one common point: they were all deities of Huaxia, with not a single one from beyond Huaxia.

The moment Alice inserted the incense into the burner, she felt as if the statues on the altar had come alive.

"Daoist Lord brother, is that you?"

Alice said, pleasantly surprised, gazing at the statue.

She had joined the chat group several days ago, and had also been to the Taixuan Realm under Xiao Mai's lead.

Daoist Lord brother was both handsome and gave her so many delicious things — she simply adored him.

"It's me!"

The statue chuckled lightly. "Today, since the temple is complete, naturally I must show a little divine marvel."

At the turn of a thought, the ruler held in the statue's hand blazed with boundless spiritual light, illuminating heaven and earth.

In just an instant, the spiritual energy across the entire Central Plains multiplied tens of thousands of times over.

Spiritual energy became like liquid, even transforming into a long river that roared and surged.

Ginseng and lingzhi sprouted forth like weeds, dotting the mountains and fields.

Old women and old men saw their white hair turn black again, restored to their youthful prime.

Auspicious light enveloped heaven and earth; blessed qi shot straight through the nine heavens.

The changes were not confined to the Central Plains, but spread across the entire Small Thousand World.

The worshippers, seeing the changes in Daoist Lord Taixuan's statue and receiving tangible benefits, grew even more fervent in their faith.

Nüwa: "Since Daoist Lord has shown his holiness, I'll make a move as well."

Houtu: "Sister Nüwa, together."

Unlike Zhang Taixuan, Nüwa and Houtu lacked sufficient divine power — to locate the world where Luo Wei was amid the boundless chaos was still beyond their ability, so they could only have him open up access.

The next moment, the statues of Nüwa and Houtu also blazed with light.

With a light sweep of the Nüwa statue, the humans of the Central Plains felt their bodies grow light, their skin become crystalline as jade, and their strength boundless.

This was only the surface change.

In truth, Nüwa — as the Holy Mother of humanity — had employed the method of Revolving Creation, granting the humans of this world a fraction of the root-constitution of the Primordial humans.

Although it was only a fraction of a root-constitution, it was still quite extraordinary.

At the very least, the humans of the Central Plains in this world would face no bottleneck whatsoever before reaching the Immortal realm.

The Houtu statue glowed, and upon the earth the netherworld instantly appeared.

The Six Paths of Reincarnation manifested, and the hidden ghosts and monsters of the mortal world were drawn away by the Six Paths in an instant.

In a flash, the mortal world was cleansed and at peace.
