Chapter 165: Eighth-Rank Divine Power! Mu Renjie Appears! (Two Chapters in One)

"Are they really casual cultivators?" Zhou Qing touched the corpses skillfully. Two of the three people did not have any storage treasures such as leather bag Gu. The money on the three people added up to only 6,000 taels of silver. The most valuable item was the flying knife in the hands of the old man in green robe. After injecting true energy, it would become translucent. Unfortunately, the flying knife was not a magic weapon, but only a conventional weapon of good quality. In addition, the valuable items were the secret books on the three people. The Bone Refining Realm martial artist who was hiding in the dark and good at archery had a leather bag Gu and was slightly richer. The leather bag Gu contained a complete archery secret book, and the bow and arrow in his hand were also top-grade. The treasures on the three people, including the secret book, did not exceed 15,000 taels of silver. "Alas," Zhou Qing sighed. As a Bone Refining Realm martial artist, the life of a casual cultivator is really not easy. The three of them together could not even get half a decent magic weapon. Even so, they also learned from others to rob people. "After all, they are Bone Refining Realm martial artists, don't waste it." Zhou Qing put the things on the three people into the storage space and let the poisonous insects devour the blood and qi in the three people's bodies.

After all, they are Bone Refining Realm martial artists, even in the county city, they are considered masters, not everywhere. It's rare to have three of them, so the blood and qi can't be wasted.

When the blood and qi of the three people were devoured by the poisonous insects and the bodies turned into mummies, Zhou Qing nodded with satisfaction, feeling the satisfaction of watching a small pet eating.

Squeak.

He skillfully poured the corpse water on the mummies and watched the pus slowly seep into the ground.

Under the inspection of the tiger eagle, there were no other warriors nearby, but after dealing with the corpse, Zhou Qing walked out of the forest and hurried on his way at night.

That evening, he rushed back to Ping'an County, returned to the house in the outer city, and had a good sleep.

He slept until the afternoon of the next day, and then Zhou Qing went to Zhao's Business to auction the secret books obtained from the three Bone Refining Realm martial artists.

After confirming the auction date at noon half a month later, Zhou Qing left the county town.

Before returning to Heishan Town, he first entered Heifeng Mountain.

As soon as he entered the territory of Heifeng Mountain, outside the mulberry forest at the foot of the mountain, there stood a temple with three big characters "Mountain God Temple" on the plaque.

"Has the temple been built?" Zhou Qing was slightly stunned and walked towards the Mountain God Temple.

Zhou Qing came to the gate and saw clearly that the interior space of the entire temple was less than 50 square meters, but although it was small, it had everything.

In the middle of the stone platform stood a statue of the same height, carved from stone and coated with a layer of copper paint.

The statue was tall, solemn and dignified, full of majesty, which was in line with the stereotype of gods that most people had.

On the left side of the statue stood a handsome stone statue of an eagle, with its wings spread out, ready to fly.

As for the right side of the statue, there is a fox statue about a foot tall. Its face is not as charming as that of an ordinary fox, but rather dignified and solemn.

"Huying and Ruyan? So, the one in the middle is me." Zhou Qing pondered in his heart.

In the middle of the temple, there are cushions, and many people are kneeling on them at this moment, offering incense devoutly.

From Zhou Qing's perspective, a faint golden light emerges from the tops of these people's heads, some weak, some bright, and finally merges with the fireworks from the incense sticks in their hands, and floats towards the three stone statues together.

The stone statue in the middle took most of it, and the remaining two stone statues divided the remaining small half equally.

When Zhou Qing raised his foot to enter the temple, he immediately felt that he had some kind of connection with the statue in the middle, and a powerful divine power emerged from the body of the statue.

The next moment, he found that the face of the statue had turned into his own. The entire bronze statue was shining with dazzling golden light, as if the real divine power was emerging from the statue.

"In such a short time, so much divine power has been accumulated?!" Zhou Qing's eyes were fixed.

A large amount of divine power entered his body from the statue.

[Your divine power has been improved! Divine power +1000]

[Your divine power has been improved! Divine power +1000]

[Your divine power has been improved! Divine power +1000]

"Look at the appearance of the mountain god!"

"The Black Wind Mountain God has appeared!"

"Mountain God! Believers."

At this time, the mountain people who were kneeling and burning incense suddenly discovered a strange phenomenon. From their perspective, the mountain god statue was shining with golden light, and his face was blurred for a while, as if it had become vivid.

The mountain people were overjoyed and kowtowed repeatedly. Some people even expressed their wishes on the spot.

"Look! The fox fairy has also appeared!"

The next moment, someone was surprised to find that the statue of the 'fox fairy' squatting on the right side of the mountain god had turned into a prostrate posture, as if kneeling and bowing in a certain direction.

'Your subordinates pay their respects to the master. '

'No need to bow. '

From Zhou Qing's perspective, the fox statue turned into Ruyan's face. In such a short time, her divine power increased greatly, and she was able to place her divine power on the statue.

Obviously, in the more than five months that Zhou Qing was away, the spread of faith was not only not delayed, but also made great progress.

'You have worked hard during this period, and you have done a good job. 'Zhou Qing nodded.

'These are what your subordinates should do. Your subordinates are still in Huanglong Mountain at the moment. Please wait for a moment, my master, and your subordinates will come to see you right away. 'Ruyan looked respectful, with a sense of joy in her tone.

Since following Zhou Qing, her cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds, and now she has a bit of the aura of a righteous god.

‘There’s no rush for this. It’s not too late to come back after you finish your own business.’ Zhou Qing smiled. Ruyan had obviously paid a lot to increase her divine power in such a short time. ‘Thank you, my lord. I will be able to handle the wishes of my believers the day after tomorrow at the latest. I will go to Black Wind Mountain to meet you then.’ Ruyan said seriously. ‘Yes.’ Zhou Qing nodded. His attention had been diverted by the words that appeared in his sight. [Profession: Mountain God (Black Wind Mountain)] [Divine Power: Ninth Rank (154800/100000)] [Your divine power has exceeded the upper limit of the ninth rank.] [1. Accept the official imperial decree from the court and be promoted to the eighth rank mountain god. The luck is connected with the court. If one prospers, all prosper. If one suffers, all suffer.] [2. Build a divine golden body, gather the power of will, and be promoted to the eighth rank mountain god. If the divine golden body is damaged, the strength will be greatly affected. You need to obtain the favor of the will of a wider range of mountains, rivers and lakes in order to continue to be promoted. 】

"So much?!" Zhou Qing knew that he had accumulated a lot of divine power during this period, but he didn't expect that so much power had exceeded the upper limit of the ninth-grade priesthood.

"Accept the imperial decree? Wouldn't I be a beggar on my knees?"

Zhou Qing didn't even think about accepting the imperial decree and ruled it out.

The Jin Dynasty was founded nearly a thousand years ago and has already shown signs of decline. Although the thousand-year-old family must have strong people of high realms to suppress the luck, Zhou Qing didn't want to hand his fate over to others.

Even if the priesthood is not his main profession, he doesn't want to be controlled by others in this regard one day in the future.

In contrast, the only choice he can make is to rely on himself.

The loss of the golden body condensed by his own divine power is his own business and has nothing to do with others.

"It seems that the core is still on the establishment of the temple." Zhou Qing pondered in his heart. Only by obtaining a large amount of wish power can it be transformed into divine power to condense the golden body and go further.

After thinking about this clearly, Zhou Qing left the mountain temple.

The statue that originally appeared also returned to normal.

Zhou Qing walked all the way up the hillside of Black Wind Mountain. After entering the mountain, the divine power in his body seemed to become active.

"Based on the total amount of divine power alone, it feels like it has exceeded the scope of the Bone Refining Realm."

After Zhou Qing felt the amount of divine power in his body surge, he felt omnipotent in this Black Wind Mountain.

Boom!

Zhou Qing slapped his palm, and the divine power quickly condensed, forming a huge palm print that was ten feet in radius, and instantly hit a boulder more than ten meters away.

The boulder, as hard as gold and iron, exploded with a bang, directly turning into rubble all over the sky, scattering in all directions.

"There is no obvious improvement in quality, but the quantity has increased significantly, and the overall power has been significantly enhanced!"

Zhou Qing felt the power of the divine power and found the problem.

It seems that there should be another way to use the divine power.

Unfortunately, although the total amount of his divine power has exceeded the scope of the ninth-grade priesthood, the priesthood itself has not reached the eighth grade, so there is no awakening of the corresponding divine power application method, and it is impossible to exert the true power of such a huge amount of divine power.

Of course, based on this exaggerated number, he felt that the Bone Refining Realm would definitely not be able to handle it, and it should not be a problem to deal with ordinary Blood Exchange Realm martial artists.

But if it is against a master in the Blood Exchange Realm, how much effect it can have is still unknown.

Whoosh!

Zhou Qing stretched out his finger and pointed at the sapling in front.

Hualala~

The sapling, which was only half a person's height, trembled violently, and actually grew taller at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a dozen breaths, the sapling became a big tree more than ten feet tall and as thick as a bowl.

As long as Zhou Qing is willing, he can let this tree continue to grow.

However, this tree is not a spiritual herb, and there is not much value in continuing to grow.

Unless it has hundreds of years of age and becomes a spiritual wood, it is just an ordinary wood.

Unfortunately, ordinary spiritual wood is not of much use to Zhou Qing.

Before, his divine power had the ability to ripen plants and restore plant damage. Now that his divine power has increased greatly, this ability has also been improved, but there is no qualitative change.

If he wants to ripen the precious herbs, he will waste a lot of divine power with the way he uses divine power now, which is not worth the loss.

"It seems that he still needs to condense the golden body before he can really exert the power of divine power."

Zhou Qing felt a little sorry, but it was a pleasant surprise to be able to upgrade his divine position to the level comparable to that of an ordinary great martial artist in the blood exchange realm. Everything is developing in a good direction.

"I wonder if it can speed up the gathering of the earthly evil spirit."

Zhou Qing suddenly remembered that his divine power has increased greatly now, and his control over Black Wind Mountain has been further improved.

With the help of the natural wood evil land of Black Wind Mountain to upgrade to the power of the wood spirit corpse, it should also be able to speed up the process under the influence of divine power.

Thinking of this, Zhou Qing was about to rush to the valley where the peach blossom forest was.

However, when Zhou Qing just passed the Jiuxian Temple halfway up the mountain, a mysterious voice seemed to appear in his mind.

"Could it be..."

Zhou Qing paused and looked at the still dilapidated Jiuxian Temple. He paused and walked into the temple.

The statue of the Great Marshal of the Drunken Immortal, which was covered with spider webs, was now emitting a dim divine light from his perspective. This divine light flickered, like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time.

However, the quality of this divine power was indeed extremely high. With the same amount, Zhou Qing's divine power was far inferior to it.

As a regular mountain god, Zhou Qing was extremely sensitive to divine power.

The divine rank of this Great Marshal of the Drunken Immortal was probably much higher than he had imagined.

‘Follower Zhou Qing! Do you know your sin? ! ’

At this moment, a face that looked majestic without anger suddenly appeared on the statue of the Drunken God, staring at Zhou Qing.

A breath as heavy as a mountain came over him, and Zhou Qing’s body stiffened and his legs weakened.

In his subconscious, it seemed as if a voice was telling him that as long as he knelt down and surrendered, he would no longer feel pressured, and he would also gain unexpected benefits.

“Hmph!” Feeling his body bending down uncontrollably, Zhou Qing snorted coldly, and a mighty force emerged from his body.

The dull sound quickly echoed in the Drunken God Temple, and the terrifying pressure just now disappeared without a trace.

He stared at the statue of the Drunken God, and there was a faint golden light in his eyes.

“You are a righteous god, and I am also a righteous god! What crime have I committed? Why should I surrender to you?!”

Zhou Qing held his head high and looked at the statue of the Drunken God.

At this moment, a grand voice seemed to come from outside the nine heavens, resounding in Zhou Qing’s heart.

"Have you forgotten my previous protection? You promised to build a golden statue for me again? Do you want to go back on your word?!" Zhou Qing said coldly: "Your protection? It's just to make me become your divine servant and be at your mercy. Besides, I have offered incense to you before. We are mutually beneficial. As for building a golden statue again, I don't know how to build my own golden statue, so you should wait for yours." He asked himself if he had any debt to the wine fairy. "In this case, I will teach you the eighth-grade worship method to help you build a golden body." The grand voice sounded again. "Are you serious?" Zhou Qing's eyes condensed, "What do I have to pay?" "You move my statue to the mountain temple and share the incense equally. After one year, I will teach you the method of building a golden body." The wine fairy stated his conditions. "Equally? One year? You think it's beautiful!" Zhou Qing frowned and refused on the spot. "Without the eighth-grade worship method, you will never have the opportunity to be promoted to the eighth-grade god post. Have you thought it through?" The wine fairy said in a deep voice.

"Without the worship method, I can still be promoted! If I can't be promoted, forget it!"

Zhou Qing was full of confidence and turned around and left.

"Wait!" As soon as Zhou Qing walked out of the wine fairy temple, the wine fairy tried to keep him.

"Split the incense for half a year."

"Seven to three! I will give you seven and you will give you three. I will supply you with incense for a year, but after a month, you must teach me the eighth-grade worship method immediately!" Zhou Qing said in a deep voice.

"." The wine fairy was silent.

Zhou Qing did not speak again and turned to leave the wine fairy temple.

'Deal. '

Just as he was about to reach the valley, the faint voice of the wine fairy sounded in his heart.

Zhou Qing raised the corner of his mouth, entered the peach blossom forest, and released the Zhimu spirit corpse.

However, before he could put the Zhimu spirit corpse into the valley, the perspective in front of him changed instantly.

This was the tiger eagle sharing the audio and video with him.

"Huh?!" Zhou Qing's expression suddenly changed after seeing everything in front of him.

He saw a middle-aged man in a green robe and with a refined appearance, running towards the valley at a very fast speed.

"Mu Renjie? It turned out to be him?!!"

Zhou Qing never expected that Mu Renjie would arrive right after he entered Black Wind Mountain.

"What's going on?" Zhou Qing's mind raced.
