Chapter 196 Who Are You Trying to Fool? The Seventh Master's Curse
"Visit... worship the statue?"
"This, Sect Master Lu, although this is a praying statue, can it really work?"
"Can't praying statues only serve as a psychological comfort? They have no effect at all."
Ji Hao and the other eight people were a little confused when they heard this.
Although, this praying statue of Lu Tao looks quite extraordinary.
But.
All praying statues in the martial arts world have no effect. No matter how well they are built, they have never worked.
And now.
Lu Tao took out the praying statue for them to worship, and it was his own statue.
No matter how you look at it.
What's more.
The last sentence Lu Tao said to Gu Shengjie was obviously aimed at Gu Shengjie, which also made them feel that this matter was extremely unreliable.
At this time.
Gu Shengjie's face was extremely ugly.
He was a perfect martial king with extremely powerful strength, but Lu Tao didn't even give him any face and said that kneeling down would be more effective.
This is clearly to make him kneel down.
This is completely insulting him.
He, Gu Shengjie, has never been insulted like this since he joined Wuying Palace.
Therefore.
Gu Shengjie looked gloomy and looked at Lu Tao with cold eyes.
What a pity.
Lu Tao didn't care about his eyes at all. He didn't take the mere perfection of the Martial King seriously at all.
"Now, you can start."
Lu Tao looked at the others and reminded them with a smile: "Remember, you must be pious, otherwise, there will be no effect."
Then.
Lu Tao looked at Gu Shengjie again and said: "If anyone doesn't want to worship, you can leave the Immortal Sect now."
"..."
Gu Shengjie's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot when he heard this.
A moment ago, Lu Tao asked him to kneel down, but after a few breaths, he urged him to leave again.
Obviously, Lu Tao wanted to humiliate him because of the previous incident, but he didn't seem to want him to get this opportunity.
This shows that praying to the statue is most likely true.
This made Gu Shengjie very conflicted.
What should he choose?
If he left, he couldn't bear to give up such an opportunity.
This was the realm of being promoted to the God of War, the pinnacle of martial arts in the lower plane.
Moreover.
Once he was promoted to the God of War, he would engrave the heavenly-grade martial arts in his dantian and transform them into magical powers. His combat power would be greatly improved, reaching the perfection of the God of War, and he could be free and easy in the lower plane.
It was even possible for him to ascend to the God Realm in the future.
Although after leaving, with his talent and qualifications, he would sooner or later be able to break through the God of War, but he himself didn't know how long it would take.
This retreat to break through the God of War lasted for several years, but he still failed.
Now that such an opportunity was right in front of him, how could he be willing to give it up.
The most important thing was.
This realm-breaking pill could ignore the influence of bottlenecks such as state of mind, foundation, and inner demons, and directly break through the realm. The effect was so amazing.
Once missed, there would be no more.
But if he stayed, he would be humiliated by Lu Tao. How could he be willing to be humiliated?
Thinking of this.
Gu Shengjie wanted to slap himself twice. Why did he provoke Lu Tao for no reason.
It was the Wuying Palace's junior who got the upper hand over Lu Tao, but was counter-robbed by Lu Tao. In this matter, Wuying Palace was in the wrong. Why should he say anything?
Now it's good.
Not only did he not get the slightest advantage from Lu Tao, but he also disgusted the Seventh Master and left a bad impression on the Seventh Master.
Even.
Now he has to be humiliated by Lu Tao in front of so many martial kings.
Why bother?
While Gu Shengjie was struggling in his heart, the other six martial kings of the Daqian royal family had already begun to worship the statue.
With the Seventh Master here.
These six people don't even want to leave.
They can only worship and pray to the statue again and again according to the Seventh Master's instructions.
However, when worshiping, whether it is a pious worship or a pretense, only they themselves know.
However.
What they don't know is that there is another person who knows.
Lu Tao looked at the changes in the faith value of the statue, his expression was calm, not anxious at all.
They seemed to be fooling themselves and the statue, but in fact, they were just fooling themselves.
No matter what they did, Lu Tao was too lazy to say more.
Anyway.
The faith value they needed for their prayers must be contributed by themselves. Don't think that he would be kind enough to use the faith value contributed by the disciples of the Immortal Sect on them.
When the contribution is enough, it will end.
As for the delay that led to the fall of the King of Martial Arts and the God of Martial Arts in the Great Qian Tianwai Tian.
That has nothing to do with me.
That's it.
After the six people of the royal family paid homage, the other two Kings of Martial Arts also began to pay homage, and then Gu Shengjie also pretended to pay homage.
Seeing this.
The Seventh Master frowned, looked at Lu Tao, and asked with his eyes.
Lu Tao smiled faintly, didn't care, and turned to talk about another thing.
"Seventh Master, since members of the royal family can join the Immortal Sect, I want to ask you for someone."
Lu Tao said: "My brother Kong Hao, I originally invited him to join the Immortal Sect, but he insisted on waiting until the crisis of Daqian was resolved and resigning from the position of Palace Master before joining the Immortal Sect. Can we let him resign from the position of Palace Master now?"
"If you want to join the Immortal Sect, just join it. Why do you have to resign from the position of Palace Master?"
Seventh Master naturally agreed to Kong Hao joining the Immortal Sect, but not after resigning, but to join the Immortal Sect as the Palace Master of Yongkang Prefecture.
In this way.
The relationship between the Daqian royal family and the Immortal Sect is one step closer.
If anything happens to Daqian in the future, the Immortal Sect will not sit idly by.
Although Ji Zhiyuan and Ji Chengxuan joined in, Qiye understood that the weight of these two people in Lu Tao's heart was definitely not as great as Kong Hao.
It was undoubtedly better to have the relationship between Kong Hao and his daughter and Lu Tao.
Lu Tao did not care about Qiye's little thoughts.
Regardless of whether there was a relationship between Kong Hao and Kong Xin, he would not ignore anything that happened in Daqian.
That's it.
With just two simple sentences, Kong Hao's matter was resolved.
"Qiye, excuse me."
Lu Tao apologized to Qiye, left the hall, and informed Kong Hao of the news.
Then.
Lu Tao took Kong Hao into the cave, asked him to break the pill and start over, and took the Transcendent Pill to improve his qualifications.
Then he taught him the Breathing Technique and asked him to practice in seclusion in the cave.
Although Kong Hao started from the seventh level of the Divine Platform and broke the pill, with his current qualifications and various enhancements, it would not take long for him to practice again.
It was just a few days.
Time passed.
In a blink of an eye, two hours passed.
In the hall, everyone was still worshipping without stopping, and Qi Ye was always supervising them.
At this time.
Lu Tao came to the hall and said to one of them: "Ji Hao, you can stop."
"Okay, thank you, Sect Master Lu."
Ji Hao was slightly stunned, then his face was happy, and he clasped his fists to thank Lu Tao.
Others were waiting for Lu Tao to stop, but unfortunately, after Lu Tao stopped Ji Hao, he didn't even look at them, and said to Qi Ye: "Qi Ye, you will give the realm-breaking pill to Ji Hao."
"Okay!"
Qi Ye was a little excited when he heard this, which meant that Ji Hao was about to become a martial god. He hurriedly handed a realm-breaking pill to Ji Hao.
"Sect Master Lu, what should I do?"
Ji Hao took the pill and asked Lu Tao for advice.
Lu Tao smiled and said, "You can worship my statue again. When you worship, you can pray in your heart, praying that after taking the realm-breaking pill, you can successfully ascend to the realm of the Martial God."
"Okay!"
Ji Hao did not ask any more questions, and directly prayed to the statue of Lu Tao as before.
Then the next moment.
I heard Lu Tao say: "It's OK, as long as you are ready to deal with the Martial God's thunder tribulation, you can take the realm-breaking pill at any time, and you can immediately ascend to the Martial God and start to overcome the tribulation."
"Thank you, Sect Master Lu!"
Ji Hao was very excited.
Although he was not sure whether this matter was true or false, he was like this. For many opportunities, he would rather believe it than not believe it.
Of course, there is a premise.
The premise is that you don't need to pay too much to get this opportunity.
This is the case with today's trip to the Immortal Sect.
Without paying any price, just worshiping the statue, you get a chance to ascend to the realm of the Martial God.
So when he worshipped, he was very pious and did not cheat.
Although he didn't know whether it was true or not, he chose to believe it first.
"Master Lu, what about us? How long do we need to worship?"
Seeing this, the others were a little anxious, and some couldn't help asking.
Lu Tao glanced at them calmly and said, "Whether you are sincere in your heart when you worship, you know it yourself."
"Continue to worship."
Leaving behind a word, Lu Tao said goodbye to the Seventh Master and returned to the cave to practice again.
"A bunch of ungrateful people, Sect Master Lu has given you the opportunity to worship the statue with good intentions, but you are so good as to cheat me."
Seventh Master was full of anger, and said angrily: "Since this prayer statue is so magical, as the owner of the statue, how could Sect Master Lu not know whether you are attentive when you worship?"
"You are so careless about such an important matter as the promotion to the God of War!"
"Can the future of my Daqian be handed over to you people?"
"Assholes, it really makes me angry."
"Why don't you worship quickly."
Seventh Master became more and more angry as he spoke. If he was not just a clone and only at the Grandmaster level, he really wanted to beat this group of people up.
"Yes, Seventh Master!"
The remaining few people were all red-faced by Seventh Master's scolding.
Immediately put down the arrogance of the King of War and began to worship devoutly.
However.
Although Gu Shengjie was worshiping, his heart was full of anger, and he always felt that he was being played by Lu Tao.
Therefore.
Although he appeared very pious when he was worshipping, he was rejecting it in his heart.
