8: Temple official Liu Chunsheng

Lin Chuping, who was invisibly eating melon seeds by the side, silently sighed in his heart.

“Sure enough, I was still superficial!”

“So it turns out that in this world, humans can also Cultivate!”

“This is also reasonable. All kinds of demons and monsters can Cultivate. As long as the Heavenly Dao doesn't want to directly wipe out humanity, it won't leave humans out.”

“I just don't know what level my current strength is among human Cultivators.”

Anyone who had been in the Xuanhuan novel circle in his previous life was full of fantasies about Cultivating to become an Immortal, flying with a sword, summoning wind and rain, and having three palaces and six courtyards—just thinking about it was exhilarating!

However, this time, I’m already in the stratosphere.

Ascending to the heavens in one step, directly becoming a god—who else but I, Lin Chuping?!

“Hahahahaha!”

Fate is truly wondrous!

The items generated by the System would refresh on time at midnight every day.

After becoming a god, Lin Chuping didn’t need to eat or sleep; as long as he had enough incense value, he was an existence akin to a perpetual motion machine.

It was almost midnight, and Lin Chuping had been staring intently at the System screen, excitedly rubbing his hands.

Take people's money, eliminate their disasters.

Having received the villagers' incense, he couldn't just do nothing.

As soon as the time came, Lin Chuping became a little impatient.

“Tong Ge, open theMall (Mall)!”

【Mall Rank: 1

Current Items:

1. Thunder Punishment: (Upgradable divine technique) Thunderous might, unstoppable. An essential divine technique for manifesting divinity before others (showing off).

3. Rain Summoning Technique: Rainwater like Dragon scales, assisting me for the common people! Merciful god, bestow rain and dew upon your pitiful believers!

Price: 100 incense value

Note: Purchasable items refresh at midnight daily】

Well, that's pretty good!

The divine techniques in the System Mall this time were all things he currently needed.

However, I'm a bit strapped for cash right now!

Lin Chuping looked at the 2500 incense value on his panel!

For the Faith Cultivation Art, which cost 100000 incense value, Lin Chuping could only feast his eyes.

After buying the two divine techniques, Thunder Punishment and Rain Summoning Technique, Lin Chuping simply closed the System Mall, out of sight, out of mind.

As for the Faith Cultivation Art and such, he'd see them next time.

The moon was bright, stars were sparse, and everything was silent.

Everyone was deep in sleep, and Lin Chuping silently floated out of the god's body, appearing in Liu Chunsheng's home.

Yes, after careful consideration, the Temple Official Lin Chuping chose was Liu Chunsheng.

For no other reason than Liu Chunsheng was the most devout among all his believers.

Enter Dream activated!

The next moment.

Liu Chunsheng, who was sound asleep on his bed, slowly woke up, only to find himself in a dark world, with dim light that could only illuminate about a meter around him!

Where is this?

Liu Chunsheng was puzzled. Wasn't he sleeping in his bed?

How did he suddenly appear in such a place?

“Liu Chunsheng!”

Just then.

A low, majestic voice echoed from ahead, striking his Soul.

“Yes!”

Liu Chunsheng's body trembled, and he quickly nodded.

Immediately after.

Just then, Liu Chunsheng suddenly felt his body become light, as if it had lost all weight, and he slowly floated upward.

He was startled, but soon realized he was rapidly drifting forward.

In the blink of an eye, after only a few breaths, a blurry figure gradually appeared in Liu Chunsheng's line of sight.

The person wore a long, flowing green robe, gently fluttering in the wind, like an Immortal descending to the mortal world.

As the figure drew closer, Liu Chunsheng could barely make out the other party's face, which was handsome and exuded an extraordinary aura.

He looked a bit familiar, but Liu Chunsheng didn't recognize him.

“Liu Chunsheng, I am the guardian god of Chang Sheng Village. Today, I have specially brought you into this dream realm to tell you something.”

Hearing this, Liu Chunsheng was first stunned, then excitedly knelt on both knees, respectfully kowtowing.

“This humble one greets Lord Chuping! Greetings, Lord Chuping!”

“No need for such formality, quickly rise.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Chunsheng hastily got up from the ground, still standing there with his head bowed, appearing very reserved.

“I intend to have the villagers build a temple here. Once the temple is completed, a Temple Official will be needed to manage its daily affairs. Are you willing to take on this important task?”

For a temple to operate, it needs someone to manage daily order, and this person holds the highest authority besides the god.

However.

A temple built by a village wouldn't be too large, so one Temple Official should suffice.

Perhaps in the future, if I establish a sect, more personnel will be needed: Temple Officials, Hall Masters, Inspectors, Archivists...!

Of course, these are all matters for later.

“Willing, this humble one is willing...!”

Liu Chunsheng's eyes lit up with surprise upon hearing the god ask him to serve as Temple Official, and he nodded repeatedly in agreement.

“Chang Sheng Village is full of ordinary people, yet there are no Cultivators to protect them!”

“Normally, this god needs to rest!”

“Some minor troubles should be handled by you!”

“When the time is right, I will bestow upon you a set of Cultivation Technique!”

Cultivation Technique!

These simple four characters, however, exploded in Liu Chunsheng's mind like a clap of thunder.

That was a Cultivation Technique, not ordinary cabbage.

Liu Chunsheng's body involuntarily trembled from extreme excitement, and his heart pounded violently, as if it would leap out of his throat at any moment.

Now, everyone in Chang Sheng Village knew that Da Li Village had only gained the envy of all because it had cozied up to the son of a steward from a Family that had Cultivators stationed there, making everyone's eyes almost pop out.

If their own village could also Cultivate a true Cultivator, then... wouldn't they just take off directly!

Liu Chunsheng took a deep breath, suppressing the surging excitement in his heart, and replied respectfully in a slightly trembling voice.

“Thank you for your great kindness, Lord Chuping. This humble one will do his utmost to live up to Lord Chuping's expectations.”

After speaking, he bowed deeply, his attitude extremely humble.

Lin Chuping, standing opposite, nodded slightly in approval.

“There is one more thing. Tomorrow is the day the Vine Demon comes to collect sacrifices. Go and inform the villagers of Nan Shu Village to temporarily take shelter in our Chang Sheng Village for the night.”

As soon as Lin Chuping finished speaking, Liu Chunsheng felt his body lose weight and fall.

Then he instantly woke up.

“Village Chief, Village Chief!”

The next morning, Liu Chunsheng, with two huge dark circles under his eyes, appeared at Village Chief Li Fu's doorstep.

“Chunsheng! What's got you in such a hurry this early in the morning?”

The Village Chief looked at the dimly lit sky and asked with a yawn.

Liu Chunsheng hastily spilled everything about the god's descent last night, especially emphasizing the matters of the Cultivation Technique and the Vine Demon.
