Chapter 421: Worshiping the Gods

Three identical statues of the Fire Virtue Star Lord.

Neatly placed together, like ornaments on a supermarket shelf. Although they looked ferocious, they gave Wu Xian a feeling of being obedient.

With somewhat disrespectful thoughts, Wu Xian inserted three sticks of Sui incense into the incense burner.

Whoosh! Three clusters of flames erupted, and nine talismans appeared.

"Let me see what good things there are this time."

"Hmm, Wood-in-Fire Incantation, Fire Metallurgy Technique, Fire Escape Technique, Explosion Talisman, Nameless Fire Incantation, Temperature Raising Method, Expansion Burning Method, Long Burning Method, Fire Spreading Incantation."

As early as the last time he worshiped the gods, Wu Xian had set his strategy for choosing talismans.

That was to rely on the coordination of Dharma talismans and spell talismans to build a combat system in this Fudi.

Since he already had the "Drill-Wood Fire-Starting Incantation," this time Wu Xian wanted to choose one spell talisman and two Dharma talismans.

But he still had to glance at the technique talismans and talismans.

Explosion Talisman: Blesses an item, causing it to produce a small-scale explosion when it touches an enemy, knocking the enemy back.

Fire Metallurgy Technique: "A strong wind sweeps away a hundred grasses, a fierce fire smelts true gold." Holding metal and releasing flames can slowly smelt the metal into the desired shape. The smeltable volume is one cubic meter.

Fire Escape Technique: Enter the flames, hide without a trace, and can use flames for short-distance rapid movement. Can be used three times.

These three talismans were all optional types, but not very necessary. At least not as important as the "Fox Fire Lamp Technique," which made Wu Xian give up his construction strategy.

Next were the spell talismans and Dharma talismans.

There were three spell talismans.

Among them, the Wood-in-Fire Incantation releases three fireballs, and the fireballs are larger than those of the True Fire Incantation, but these fireballs are ordinary fire from burning wood, and their effect on malevolent entities isn't as strong as "True Fire."

This spell talisman should be in the same series as the "Air Fire Incantation" and "Stone-in-Fire Incantation." Putting them together might produce a combination effect, but Wu Xian didn't have the capacity to collect them for the time being.

The Fire Spreading Incantation also releases ordinary fire. Its power isn't as strong as the Wood-in-Fire Incantation, but its area is larger, and it can ignite many things at once. Can be used three times.

The effect of the Nameless Fire Incantation is to ignite a cluster of nameless flames, making the enemy inexplicably lose their temper, thus making wrong decisions. Compared to fire spell talismans, it's more like a mental spell talisman. But Wu Xian has the blessing of Thunder Anger and Electric Rage. No matter what the attack is, as long as the number of hits is sufficient, it can produce the same effect.

Wu Xian struggled between the "Wood-in-Fire Incantation" and the "Fire Spreading Incantation" for a moment, then chose the Fire Spreading Incantation.

First, in terms of power, it can be compensated by Dharma talismans. Such a large-area flame is an advantage that other spell talismans can't reach. Secondly, large-area flames are more suitable for arson.

With this spell talisman, Wu Xian could go to the Inverted Corpse Forest to farm monsters!

Finally, there were three Dharma talismans.

Among them, the Temperature Raising Method and Long Burning Method, Wu Xian had seen before. The only new Dharma talisman was the Expansion Burning Method.

The effect of the Expansion Burning Method is to bless a spell talisman, making the burning caused by that spell talisman easier to spread. Can be used twice.

Wu Xian thought for a moment.

He chose the "Expansion Burning Method" and "Temperature Raising Method," plus the "Fire Spreading Incantation" he just selected. This worship of the gods was officially over.

Seeing the three divine statues slowly burn out.

Wu Xian felt that this Fudi was moving in a relatively smooth direction.

The process of worshiping the gods, while long to describe, was actually just a short while.

Wu Xian walked back to the center of the cavern, picked up a piece of black gel dropped by the shadow-dancing woman, molded it into the shape of a cup, and then immersed it in cold water to set.

Then he inserted two spider-leg piercing spears into the armpits of the charred corpse Yin House and tied them with rope, so that when he wanted to move the charred corpse Yin House, he wouldn't need to touch the corpse directly.

Wu Xian still wanted to do some tricks, but the old lady of the Yin House was getting a bit impatient.

Mist began to rise in the large cavern. This faint white mist reminded Wu Xian of the mist in the graveyard on Luo Wang Island, where they encountered a ghost wall.

What about this time?

Clatter, clatter...

Accompanied by the clattering sound, a large group of thin and tall white-robed people appeared. These white-robed people jumped with strange steps, waving two-pronged forks stuck with human limbs, approaching bit by bit. The scene was extremely bizarre.

At the same time, the charred corpse Yin House grew rapidly, becoming like a giant, and a charred black door opened on the side.

The old lady of the Yin House beckoned to the three of them.

"Come in quickly, those are Impermanence Ghosts, they specialize in catching ownerless wandering souls. You should hide in my Yin House quickly, otherwise you will never be reincarnated!"

"How do you know they are called Impermanence Ghosts? Have you seen them?"

The old lady of the Yin House was speechless.

Wu Xian picked up a mushroom arm with a blank expression and threw it at the white-robed people. The arm passed through them without any obstruction.

"So it really is an illusion. The three of them were tricked in by this kind of trick... But this can't be blamed entirely on them. After all, the concept that this old woman might be an ally was something I instilled in them."

"In my view, there are flaws everywhere here, but for them, the only way to survive before them is to enter the Yin House."

Wu Xian handed two fire-oil balls and the gel cup he had made earlier to Xiong Gang, giving him a wink. Xiong Gang let out a strange cry, made a terrified expression, lowered his body, and crawled into the door, rolling and crawling.

The old lady of the Yin House originally thought she had failed, but seeing Xiong Gang crawl in, a sinister smile instantly hooked on her face.

Immediately after, Wu Xian and Fatty also walked toward the door. The old lady of the Yin House laughed even more happily, beckoning to Wu Xian kindly, like a brothel madam.

But Wu Xian stopped at the door and showed a mouthful of white teeth to the old lady of the Yin House.

Then he slashed over with a knife!

Swish! The saw-blade knife passed through the body of the old lady of the Yin House, but she remained unscathed. Sure enough, there was no way to hurt her outside.

So Wu Xian took a step back, and Fatty rushed over, biting the door handle outside. That posture was to violently tear this door down! The old lady of the Yin House was anxious.

She couldn't care about maintaining the sinister posture of a malevolent entity.

She grabbed the door handle and tried to force the door shut. Fatty also grabbed the door with both paws, exerting all his strength to wrestle with the old lady of the Yin House.

Soon Fatty fell into a disadvantage.

The Yin House had an owner. The old lady wanted to close the door, and Fatty couldn't stop it, only delay it for a while.

Bang! The door finally closed.

The old lady of the Yin House gave a sinister laugh and was about to shrink the charred corpse Yin House, returning it to its invincible form.

Then, the door fell down.

Wu Xian proudly put away the saw-blade knife. Just now, when the old lady of the Yin House and Fatty were pulling the door, he had heated the saw-blade knife and cut off the hinges of this charred black flesh door! Then Fu Ji'an brought over a pile of things, including firewood, bones, and fur, and the two of them worked together to place the fallen door diagonally at the entrance.

This pile of random, messy things was all piled up, and the front of the Yin House looked like a garbage dump.

The face of the old lady of the Yin House was as black as the bottom of a pot.

She glared at Wu Xian sinisterly, then stopped entangling with Wu Xian and turned to walk inside the Yin House. She still had to deal with Xiong Gang who had just entered.
