Speaking of which.
If Wu Haojian were not burdened with so many karmic debts, he would still die eventually but not so soon.
There might even have been a chance that after some time has passed, he would forget the whole matter, and not seek trouble with Wu Haojian, in which case the latter might have survived.
Of course.
If one is free of karmic debts, they are less likely to cause harm to Taoist temples.
At this moment.
After hearing this.
Wu Haoming breathed a sigh of relief and then bowed deeply, Daoist Priest, I see that your Taoist temple is under construction, why not let me handle the works behind it!
Having said that.
Worried that Xuanqing might misunderstand, he hastily added, Ill do the work for the temple free of charge, consider it a donation.
For Wu Haoming, although the cost of constructing a road is substantial, compared to taking over Good Brothers Construction completely, it was nothing.
As for the sorrow of losing his brother?
To this, Wu Haoming had only one thought to share he deserved it, he was warned to behave himself but he never listened, now he has reaped his own karma.
After all these years, the brothers relationship has been worn out by the constant quarrels, leaving behind nothing but the title of brothers.
At this moment.
Upon hearing this.
Xuanqing looked at this middle-aged man in surprise.
I have already said, you just need to do your part.
However., if you can rebuild this Taoist temple of mine, 1 might consider offering you work when 1 open my branch temples!
Upon hearing this, Wu Haoming was overjoyed and assured, Rest assured, Daoist Priest, I will make sure to do a superb job.
Who would have thought- Who would have thought that he would get a chance to establish a connection with the Daoist Priest, not looking to soar to great heights, just wishing for a peaceful life, it is good enough.
Just as he was fantasizing about spending a lot of money to renovate the Qingping Temple beautifully.
Wu heard this again.
Wu Haoming, use materials according to the market price, dont act smart! warned Xuanqing.
He always upheld the principle of fairness and reciprocity. You must not take any undue advantage of him, nor would he take any undue advantage of you. Moreso, for such trifles as earthly wealth, do not think you could curry favor with him.
His thoughts exposed.
Wu Haoming chuckled awkwardly and quickly gestured that he would never do such a thing.
You may leave now, 1 have other matters to attend to. Xuanqing turned his head and told Huai Qingyun: Qingyun.. see the guest out!
Observing this.
Wu Haoming immediately bowed again, Ill do things appropriately, the affair of temple construction, will not disturb the Daoist Priest anymore!
Watching his child servant and Wu Haoming, the middle-aged man, leave.
Xuanqing shook his head slightly.
He never took the matter to heart. As soon as he used the Industry Burning Talisman, he had already settled the karmic retribution.
Wu Haojian and Wu Haoming, though brothers, due to differences in character and viewpoints, their resulting fates were starkly different.
Indeed.
Even without him, Wu Haojian, who loved cutting corners, would eventually be struck by disaster due to his greed. Though not leading to his death, he would have to spend the rest of his life in misery.bender
On the other hand, Wu Haomings original fate was going to prison with his brother. Now, he had good luck and a chance to rise.
Twists and turns of fate are elusive and marvelous-
Forget it, dont think too much, now I should go to the Back Mountain and test the Bewilderment Formation.
With these thoughts.
Xuanqing attached an Invisibility Talisman and then, like a gentle willow catkin, floated towards the Back Mountain.
The Back Mountain.
A lush forest emitting a natural fragrance, occasionally accompanied by the chirping of insects.
Compared to hustle and bustle in the front of the mountain, it is definitely much quieter here.
Even the most bored incense guests, after climbing the mountain, would at most make it to the mountain top, and not to the Back Mountain.
Seeing this.
A thought occurred to Xuanqing.
Currently, the number of people who come to offer incense at Qingping Temple is increasing, and some evil spirits have started to appear. If one lives here for a long time, it will inevitably have an impact on cultivation.
The quiet and elegant scenery of the Back Mountain, filled with the chirping of birds and fragrance of flowers, is extremely suitable for a cultivator like him.
Of course.
This is something to be considered later. For now, lets first test the effects of the Bewilderment Formation.
Thinking so.
Xuanqing took out the jade talisman, emitting two kinds of light.
Command!
Accompanied by the infusion of mana into the jade talisman.
Hum-
There was a mysterious wave, the water molecules in the air began to jump and a layer of mist formed.
Immediately after.
The mist became more and more dense.
When the mist had covered almost half the mountain.
Boom-
The ground began to shake. Numerous saplings rose from the ground, and then grew into towering trees at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In no time!
The entire Bewilderment Formation was successfully laid down, and the place where the jade talisman was put was the Array Eye of the whole Formation.
Lets test its effectiveness.
Xuanqing closed his eyes and took a random step.
The next moment.
The landscape around him kept changing. In the dense fog, numerous tall trees began to change their positions, forming a maze.
Opening his eyes.
Xuanqing touched the tree standing in front of him.
The touch was dry and rough, not any different from a real tree.
Of course.
Xuanqing knew that these illusionary trees contained energy from the wood element. In a sense, these could be considered as corporeal trees without a body.
If he wanted to cut them for building a house, it wouldnt be feasible, because once the wood energy inside was exhausted, it would dissipate into nothing.
Then.
Xuanqing left the Formation and came out.
Looking from the outside in, there was a faint fog at first, but the deeper one goes, the denser the fog became, until it became completely imperceptible.
After entering the formation, as long as one walks for about ten meters, the effect of the Bewilderment Formation will be triggered, and one will be trapped in a maze formed by trees.
Furthermore.
The trees inside the Formation appear to be individual entities, but the wood energy contained within them is interconnected, forming a clump.
Under such circumstances, even if a machine were used, none of the trees could be moved.
Good, this intensity may not be worth mentioning in the Game World, but it is enough for the Real World.
Xuanqing was satisfied and nodded.
Just at this moment.
Suddenly.
[Player has accumulated 20000 points of Incense, promoted to the Eighth Rank Immortal Official!]
A sudden system prompt echoed in his mind, catching him off guard.
Less than ten days and the count has increased by nearly twenty thousand, it seems Yang Ying is managing the temple quite well!
Just as he was thinking to himself, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
Thats strange.
The Incense is still in the Gathering Qi Bead inside the main hall, 1 have not absorbed it yet, how can I be promoted to the Eighth Rank Immortal Official already?
