Chapter 387: Temple of the Gods

"However, after learning martial arts, you can take revenge on your own. I support you very much." Qingwu suddenly suggested.

Mingshan said angrily: "They are bad people, not weak. Grandma was killed by them."

Qing Wu: "You are weak to Ji Xing and his group, and Ji Xing is even weaker to us. If we rob and kill Ji Xing, how will our actions be different from those of Ji Xing, the bad guy you mentioned? But we will also complete our promise to rescue your people, but our method of rescue will be gentle. Revenge is your own business!"

Mingshan was still a little excited, but Minghu quickly stepped forward to stop him, bowing and saying, "I would like to ask the Immortal to help rescue my people."

Hu Zi suddenly asked, "Can't immortals kill mortals at will?"

Qiuqiu nodded: "Yes, if you want revenge, you can do it first and then cultivate. If you cultivate and then seek revenge, the karma you carry will be too heavy, which will be detrimental to your cultivation. Of course, if you insist on revenge, we will not forcibly stop you."

Seeing that the three were still a little confused, Xuan Shen had more contact with them and was more familiar with them, so he patiently explained: "Jixing and his group killed your relatives, so it is normal for you to kill him and his relatives in revenge.

But if you kill him after you become an immortal, even if you do ten or a hundred times more good deeds, it will be difficult to make up for the sin of killing you committed.

However, after you become an immortal, if Ji Xing provokes you first, you can kill him without hesitation. This is how you can have a clear mind.

There's no absolute truth here, just be clear on your conscience. And there's also the old saying, "God is watching everything you do!"

Mingshan: "If I become an immortal and do something to deliberately make Jixing provoke me, even if I kill him, it won't work."

Ming Hu patted his grandson and said, "God is watching us. Take your time with revenge. Even if Ji Xing kills people at will, God will not let him off."

Xuan Shen nodded in praise: "Patriarch Ming is indeed far-sighted. There are many ways to take revenge. After rescuing your people, you can make careful plans. When you embark on the path to immortality, you will see that these mortals will be like ants."

Ming Hu knelt down in front of Qiuqiu and begged: "Is there any way for the immortal to take us in to see? I want to remember those evil people who killed my relatives."

Whether it was Mingshan or Huzi, they only saw the scene of the village full of dead bodies later. Only Minghu witnessed the whole process with his own eyes.

Moreover, he himself was the first one to be slaughtered. The reason why he was spared was to let him watch his tribesmen die in front of his eyes.

Therefore, the hatred in his heart was particularly deep. When he heard that Qiuqiu and the others would not kill anyone, he vaguely felt that it would be better to take revenge himself.

Qiuqiu was about to take out the Breath-Suppressing Talisman when Xuanshen raised his left hand towards the two of them. After his fingers shifted, a simple illusion was performed. Minghu became a servant leading the way, and Mingshan's figure and appearance were transformed.

Qiuqiu also transformed into a young man, so that it would be more convenient to go out and negotiate.

The buildings in the city are mainly made of stone and wood. There are only a few large castles with stone walls, and the houses are quite simple.

It is incredible that the houses in this bustling city are so backward.

Looking at their attire, both men and women wore linen, with those of a more respectable status wearing furs. They looked about as wealthy as Ming Hu and the others.

After a round of inspection, it was found that only the nobles sitting on the high platform were wearing bright silk.

Qiuqiu used his spiritual sense to explore the city center and helped build a building that covered the largest area and looked majestic.

I took the opportunity to overhear the conversation between several old men inside and gained some understanding of the current situation.

Sneak into the heavily guarded sacrificial stone courtyard and quickly check the classics recorded inside.

Qiuqiu had a rough calculation in his mind: there were more than a dozen major factions on this continent, each operating independently, and more than twenty smaller factions that depended on the major ones for survival.

Every year, wars break out where larger forces devour smaller tribes.

This was a social state where religion dominated, and the major forces attacked each other, making it even more chaotic than the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Decades of war and smoke were all caused by the fact that the Temple of the Gods controlled by the high priest was in name only.

The Temple of the Gods is more of a religious belief than a political center.

Its members were selected from the nobles of each tribal city, all children under ten years old with a divine affinity. Those who entered the Temple of the God-Serving Gods to study, and returned to their tribe upon completion, were the ones to gain the support of the Temple of the God-Slayer and become the legitimate rulers.

After completing their studies at the age of eighteen, the best candidates can stay and serve in the Temple of the Gods.

They will also look for children among the common people who have a connection with the temple. Those who excel in their studies can get married and have children, and can also become servants of the temple and serve the temple for life.

The offspring of the God's servants, boys and girls who have learned to be fifteen or sixteen years old, can also marry into various forces to consolidate the ruling position of the God's Temple.

Therefore, the power of the Temple of the Gods is particularly huge in this world.

But five years ago, the previous high priest died mysteriously, and no next high priest was appointed.

There was an internal fight among the servants of the Temple of the Gods, and nearly half of the high-level forces were lost.

This had already severely damaged the overall strength of the Temple of the Gods. Even worse, the newly appointed High Priest, after praying at last year's succession ceremony, had received no response from Heaven and Earth.

This caused the rulers of the following countries to become restless, and the originally small-scale battle escalated to a higher level.

The so-called gift from heaven and earth is that the Temple of the Gods holds a large-scale sacrificial ceremony every five years, and all forces, big and small, will be invited to participate and bring gifts.

During the sacrifice, the high priest will perform a blessing dance, and then golden blessing rain will fall.

The king who bathes in the golden rain will have all his illnesses cured, and those who are healthy will be strengthened and healthy, and may even appear to be rejuvenated.

The amount of blessings received is directly related to the prosperity of the country being governed and the value of the gifts given.

Because the last time they prayed for blessings, no rain fell, and the prestige of the Temple of the God of Servant was greatly reduced when they suffered heavy casualties. If it weren't for the thousands of years of respect the other nations had for the Temple of the God of Servant, they would have started a large-scale war long ago. After all, the Temple of the God of Servant had been standing over their heads for too long.

By studying the records in books, we know that it is impossible to find out when the Temple of Servant of Gods came into existence.

There were no clear records of it until a thousand years ago. Its power grew rapidly, the people benefited, it spread quickly, and soon surpassed other countries.

Thousands of years ago, the Temple of the Gods was composed of only a small group of wizards who performed sacrifices, medical treatment, and blessings.

Up to now, the unfavored princes, young men without divine affinity, and noble ladies of various countries who were selected to serve the gods mainly studied medical skills, natural solar terms, writing, etc.

Without the deterrence and suppression of the Temple of the Gods, the various vassal states that had long been dissatisfied were ready to make moves.
