Chapter 10: Praises to the Three Realms Demon-Subduing Great Emperor of Divine Might and Far-Reaching Suppression, Heavenly Venerabl

Mu Yi could see that the book's author had deep prejudices about Military Yin-Yang, but still dutifully carried out popularization, even thoughtfully noting some deities that could be worshipped via the Zongwang.

Most of them are well-known existences, such as the Three Realms Demon-Subduing Great Emperor of Divine Might and Far-Reaching Suppression, Heavenly Venerable Guan Sheng Dijun, the Golden Heaven Wish Saint Great Emperor of West Peak Hua Mountain, and the Sixth Star Lord of the Northern Dipper, North Pole Military Star……

According to the book's author, these deities have some or other connection to the Military Strategists; as long as one does not meddle, they will mostly respond to worship.

Any Military Family Descendant can, by virtue of this identity, communicate with the deities through the corresponding worship methods and offerings, and receive a newcomer's benefit from them.

Most orthodox heirs of the Military Strategists usually have no need for this; their elders will have prepared it in advance. This worship is specifically set up for situations like Mu Yi's, where one unexpectedly obtains the Military Strategist inheritance.

It is a gift from the Military Strategists to their disciples who have drifted abroad.

Although the book's author encourages Military Strategist heirs to obtain everything through their own hands, he also believes these gifts can greatly increase newcomers' survival rates.

Huh?

Free newcomer's benefit!

Mu Yi felt energized; isn't this exactly what he currently lacks?

【Your occupational skill—Military Yin-Yang skill library adds a new worship ritual—Worship Deity】

Mu Yi flipped through and found that Guan Sheng Dijun's worship ritual was the simplest; the basic ritual only needs three sticks of incense, a peach, and wine to complete.

Set off for the chain supermarket.

Ten minutes later, Mu Yi stood at the exit of the nearby chain supermarket, sunk in deep thought.

Because of version restrictions, he cannot directly purchase summon-related items via the Zongwang, and he also lacks that Zongwang Disaster Coin.

This means that even for the simplest worship items, Mu Yi must find the materials himself.

I thought it would be easy, but I didn't expect the supermarket to not sell incense.

If mosquito coils count as incense, then there are some.

In the conventional sense of incense for worship and blessing, the supermarket indeed has none.

In Mu Yi's memory, the stalls selling paper money and flower wreaths might sell incense, but in midsummer, where would he go to find those elusive vendors?

After pondering for a long time, Mu Yi chose to enter a temple; as a locally famous classic, this temple is said to be effective for praying for marriage.

Ignoring the various fortune-tellers and charlatans squatting on the street outside the temple gate, Mu Yi followed the crowd and strode into the temple.

The temple was crowded, after all, praying for marriage is still quite a talking point; although no one knows why one can pray for marriage in a temple, everyone discusses it with relish and never tires of it.

Mu Yi had once been among them; he had come once before and drawn a lot.

The forty-sixth lot, 'Fishing in the Wei River,' is a middle lot, just like Mu Yi's past life—plain and uneventful, without waves.

In it, the marriage column notes: 'Love needs to wait for the right moment; if a noble person recommends, marriage will come.'

Mu Yi originally thought this noble person would be a friend or classmate, but by now he has realized that this noble person is probably at a matchmaking agency.

Someone like him, who never steps out of his gate, can probably only rely on arranged meetings to settle life's major affairs.

After receiving three sticks of pure incense from the place where the temple distributes free incense, following the crowd, Mu Yi walked out against the flow.

Guan Sheng Dijun is the Martial God of Wealth and also a guardian deity of the Buddhist Sect's monastery.

Using Buddhist Sect incense to worship Buddhist Sect deities shouldn't be considered deceiving the deities, right?

Mu Yi looked at the incense in his hand, looked at the sun above, shook his head, and carefully carried the three sticks of incense back home.

He closed the door, shutting out the summer heat outside the air-conditioned room, Mu Yi cleared a tabletop and then began preparing the worship ritual.

After everything was set up, Mu Yi lit the three sticks of pure incense.

"Praises to the Three Realms Demon-Subduing Great Emperor of Divine Might and Far-Reaching Suppression, Heavenly Venerable Guan Sheng Dijun!"

Accompanying Mu Yi's soft murmur.

Instantly, an invisible wind penetrated the room's thick concrete walls.

For no reason, Mu Yi felt a heaviness in his chest.

He felt like a restless small animal before an earthquake.

He could sense a heavy pressure descending; in a place invisible to the naked eye, a deity with boundless power was descending.

In a daze, he seemed to see a pair of large eyes scanning him up and down, confirming his identity.

"Good!" accompanied by a faint, resonant bell toll.

Mu Yi did not feel fear or panic.

Because at this moment his eyes held an indescribable kindness, as if returning to the countryside, with elders far away gazing upon his return.

Mu Yi slowly opened his eyes, which had closed at some unknown time; the sudden strange scene seemed merely a momentary illusion of his.

Only the empty tabletop and the prompt information refreshed on his retina proved that he had indeed just completed a deity-worship ritual.

"Zongwang Prompt: Initiating worship of the deity……"

"Zongwang Important Prompt: The character is attempting to initiate, in their native region, a worship ceremony targeting the Three Realms Demon-Subduing Great Emperor of Divine Might and Far-Reaching Suppression, Heavenly Venerable Guan Sheng Dijun."

"Zongwang Important Prompt: Worship successful, the deity's divine consciousness is descending."

"Zongwang Prompt: Detected Jiuzhou gift inheritance, worship activity abnormal…… no danger…… awaiting response…… the deity's divine consciousness is descending with blessings."

"Zongwang Important Prompt: Worship ended!"

"Zongwang Prompt: You obtained【Inheritance Mark (Blade Weapon)】"

"【Inheritance Mark (Blade Weapon)】"

Uses: 1/1 (Irreparable)

Description:

You can permanently consume the ancient power on this item to obtain one of its inheritance techniques.

"Zongwang Prompt: You obtained special talent——【Wealth Luck】"

【Wealth Luck】: Having a destiny where Wealth Luck clings to one throughout life, never troubled by money, living as a billionaire, and more likely to obtain special items.

Looking at the prompt shown on his retina, Mu Yi felt as if he had hit great luck.

At the same time, he gained a new understanding of the reward from the sacrificial ceremony.

Until now, Mu Yi had thought it would be some kind of equipment or weapon.

But now it seems he was a frog at the bottom of a well; any kind of thing can become a reward.

Moreover, the Jiuzhou gift he possesses seems more powerful than he imagined.

Perhaps only by truly reaching Jiuzhou can he understand its underlying meaning.
