7: Chapter 7 Dream Entry Technique

The next day, during the hour of Chen.

Heaven and earth were clear and bright, the yang energy was just beginning to rise, and all things were starting to awaken.

Qin Ling, who was inside the shrine, heard footsteps coming from outside the temple and instantly perked up.

As a wild god, naturally he did not need to sleep.

Therefore, last night he had been looking at the system mall.

It could be said that the more he looked, the more envious he became, but whenever he thought of his pitiful incense points, he could only wipe away his drool.

Fortunately, he would be able to receive quite a few incense points soon!

The footsteps outside the door went from far to near, and the first to step into the temple door were still the sister and brother pair, Qin Yin and Qin Mo.

At this moment, in addition to joss sticks, the two of them also held a small jar of fruit wine exuding a sweet aura.

Behind the brother and sister were those sailors and their families.

They were all holding things in their hands, including dried fish, rice cakes, and wild fruits wrapped in clean coarse cloth.

Although they had already offered incense and confessed their wrongs to Qin Ling yesterday, these sailors still arrived the earliest today.

Seeing this, Qin Ling immediately took out an incense double talisman, pasted it on the shrine, and used this incense double talisman.

Of course, only he could see this talisman.

"Lord Qinling, bless us."

The brother and sister, Qin Yin and Qin Mo, respectfully offered incense.

[incense points + 6]

[incense points + 6]

Seeing these two sixes, Qin Ling's eyes lit up.

This was his first time seeing such a large number!

As expected of the incense double talisman.

After the siblings Qin Yin and Qin Mo, the rest of the sailors and their families respectfully offered incense in turn.

"Many thanks to Lord Qinling for saving our lives."

"Please continue to protect us, Lord Qinling."

"..."

[incense points + 4]

[incense points + 4]

[incense points + 4]

...

Looking at the string of "incense points + 4", Qin Ling's eyes narrowed into mere slits.

After the sailors and their families finished offering incense, it was the turn of the remaining villagers to offer incense.

When they heard about the sailors' deeds at sea yesterday, these villagers had already wanted to offer incense to Lord Qinling.

Now, after a night passed, the village had spread the news of Lord Qinling's manifestation everywhere, causing even more villagers to come and offer incense.

"Lord Qinling, bless us."

"Lord Qinling, bless us."

"..."

[incense points + 2]

[incense points + 2]

[incense points + 2]

Seeing the 2 incense points, Qin Ling was not surprised at all.

After all, these villagers had only heard rumors, and in terms of piety, they could not compare to the sailors who had personally experienced things at sea.

Therefore, he had long anticipated the 2 incense points after the doubling.

Although the incense points were a bit small, there were many people!

Looking at the villagers lined up in queues, Qin Ling, who had been here for over a month, felt that he might truly reap a massive harvest today.

After the hour of Chen passed, the last villager in line at the temple finished offering incense.

Seeing this, Qin Ling couldn't wait to check his harvest.

[incense points: 240]

Seeing the incense points reaching as high as 240, Qin Ling almost drooled with envy.

Yesterday, after consuming the incense double talisman, he had 40 incense points left, and now, relying on the incense double talisman, he collected a full 200 incense points in a single wave.

Awesome!

Qin Ling swung his arms inside the shrine.

At this moment, he only hated why the mall only sold one incense double talisman.

If it weren't limited, he swore he would paste the incense double talisman all over the shrine!

After the villagers who offered incense left the temple, Qin Ling immediately spent his newly acquired incense points.

What he upgraded first was still his cultivation, first using 100 incense points to raise his cultivation to [Incense Realm 10%].

After his cultivation was upgraded, Qin Ling began trying to leave the temple.

Sure enough, this time when he left the temple, he did not suffer from that pulling force, but successfully left the temple.

He saw the entire village.

The village was not big, with a total of about forty households, windingly spreading along the coastline.

Most of the houses had walls built of stones and roofs covered with thatch; over the years, the walls were covered with dark green moss marks.

The fish-drying ground was in the center of the village, an open space paved with stone slabs.

At this moment, it was quite lively here; women sat around in a circle, their hands rising and blades falling, splitting open sliver-bright fresh fish and spreading them out on bamboo racks to dry.

The ships that went out to sea this time safely returned, bringing back a bountiful catch of fish.

"If it weren't for these fish, I really don't know how next month's days would pass."

A woman picked up a fresh fish and sighed.

"That's right, those who went to sea said it was because Lord Qinling manifested that they were able to come back."

Another woman waved her knife and split open a fish belly.

"Hey, do you guys say whether this manifestation of Lord Qinling is real? I even went to the temple this morning to offer incense to Lord Qinling!"

Another woman leaned over and said in a low voice.

"Hey, regardless of whether Lord Qinling's manifestation is true or not, isn't it great that the people who went to sea returned safely?"

"Ain't that the truth? I wish Lord Qinling would manifest more often and properly protect the people in our village who go out to sea!"

"You're right, today I must also go and offer a stick of incense to Lord Qinling~"

Several women chattered away.

Qin Ling turned his head to look elsewhere.

The paths in the village were all dirt paths, trampled solid by the villagers' feet.

On both sides of the road were stacked fishing nets and wooden barrels, and several children were playing with seashells by the base of the wall.

However, soon, Qin Ling felt that pulling force once again.

Obviously, with his current cultivation, although he could leave the temple, he still couldn't move freely throughout Qin Family Village.

Having successfully tested his range of movement, Qin Ling returned to the temple.

Returning to the shrine, he first opened the system mall and looked at one of the divine arts within it.

[Divine Art: Dream-Entering Technique]: Can enter the dreams of living beings and move freely within the dreams.

Price: 80 incense points

Quantity: 1

Without much hesitation, Qin Ling directly purchased this Dream-Entering Technique.

His panel drastically changed.

[Host: Qin Ling]

[Level: Wild God]

[Jurisdiction: Qin Family Village]

[Cultivation: Incense Realm 10%]

[incense points: 60]

[Divine Arts: 4]

[Teleportation], [Exorcism], [Primary Talisman Art], [Dream-Entering Technique]

The moment he saw this divine art named Dream-Entering Technique, Qin Ling knew it was what he needed.

With this divine art, he could communicate with the villagers in the posture of a god.

This point was very important to him.

After purchasing the divine art Dream-Entering Technique, Qin Ling began to try making talismans.

Previously, when he possessed the Primary Talisman Art, he didn't choose to consume incense points to make talismans because his purse was shy.

Now that he had earned a wave of incense points, he could finally give it a try.

Qin Ling's gaze swept past numerous talismans and then lingered on the golden light talisman.

This golden light talisman was an offensive divine talisman among talisman arts; its function was to attack, and it had a slight restraining effect on evil spirits.

This was it.

Qin Ling used the Primary Talisman Art, consumed 5 incense points, and manufactured a golden light talisman.

[Primary Golden Light Talisman]

[Effect: Offensive divine talisman, has a slight restraining effect on evil spirits.]
