I Materialized the Cultivation Game
Chapter 210 - 122: The Talisman Floats High! Demon Dao Demons Courting Death! (Part 2)
One by one, they truly began to feel the terror of this Patriarch.
When Xiaoyu saw her senior brother perform this trick, her beautiful eyes also flickered with incredulity.
When did Senior Brother learn this?
Chen Han looked at the talisman and smiled slightly, knowing all the practice with the Sword Control Technique hadn’t been wasted, and now controlling a piece of talisman paper was effortless.
The action of Commanding Heart and Inviting Spirit couldn’t stop, so he immediately picked up the brush, dipped it in cinnabar, and finally stepped forward to lightly dot it on the statue’s forehead.
"Commence the incense, worship the Celestial Venerable," Chen Han finally shouted, which meant the Enlightenment ceremony was halfway complete. Next, as long as the believers kowtowed and the statue was placed, the Enlightenment ceremony would be complete.
In other words, the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable had already appeared, and henceforth everything would be under the Celestial Venerable’s gaze. Once the statue was placed, the Celestial Venerable would bestow blessings and favor upon the believers.
Almost as soon as he spoke, a game prompt suddenly appeared:
"After the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable bestowed a dream, you held a grand ceremony for the Celestial Venerable as requested. After the statue was enlightened and Commanding Heart and Inviting Spirit were completed, you had a premonition and looked up at the sky.
The clear sky was suddenly covered by rolling clouds, so heavy it seemed to crush the entire world, presenting a terrifying celestial phenomenon. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Immediately following, a dazzling golden light shot from the depths of the endless void as if tearing apart the firmament, and where the light reached, it shone in seven colors.
That was the manifestation of the true spirit of the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable, please quickly complete the grand ceremony to receive special rewards: 1. Celestial Venerable’s Blessing: Basic Heavenly Dewfall. 2. Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable Statue’s Solemnity +2.
Seeing this game prompt, Chen Han subconsciously looked up at the quiet side hall roof again, but saw nothing, while in the game plot, the situation had dramatically changed.
However, the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable’s dream task was finally about to be completed.
Moreover, the rewards for the tasks of Data Pack (2) and Data Pack (1) were indeed different.
The Statue’s Solemnity +2, he roughly guessed what it meant.
But what the Celestial Venerable’s Blessing: Basic Heavenly Dewfall meant, he was quite curious about, even feeling a bit eager to try.
At this time, the people of the Chen Family didn’t hesitate for a moment, all lighting incense one after another, beginning to pray to the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable and offer incense.
After all the clansmen finished offering incense, the aunt finally calmed down, holding a duster, stepped forward with a light flick: "Let the Six Ding and Six Jia take their positions, welcome the Celestial Venerable into the palanquin, Spiritual Beast clear the way, Turtle and Snake Generals attend on both sides..."
The chosen sixty people of the Chen Family had long been rehearsed, and now they took action in unison, with clansmen dressed as the Six Ding and Six Jia carrying the palanquin over, respectfully placing the statue onto the palanquin.
Moreover, the Six Ding and Six Jia were all strong men, including Chen Dagou, Chen Dalong, and other members of the Demon Suppression Hall.
Now the impressive talents of the Chen Family were all from the Demon Suppression Hall, regardless of whether their age made them intimidating or their burly physique.
As the Celestial Venerable entered the palanquin, Xiaoyu hurriedly went over, leading Youcai and the Three Oxen of Fulu Shou outside, starting the Spiritual Beast procession. The clansmen wearing Turtle and Snake Hats, painted with Turtle and Snake face makeup, also followed closely behind.
Outside the main hall, those nearby had long heard the talk of the Spiritual Beast clearing the way, so when the one dog and three oxen emerged, their expressions grew solemn.
With the appearance of the Turtle and Snake Generals, the statue on the palanquin was simultaneously carried out of the main hall, with Chen Han and the aunt following behind the palanquin.
The statue was to stop in the main hall, and this was the time for the 300 believers to kowtow. Although there weren’t 300 people in the main hall, outside, a whole street was filled with gathered people, far exceeding that number.
Today those who came to the Chen Family, including those who booked rooms, villagers, and those from the county here for the excitement, definitely exceeded a thousand people.
The aunt’s voice rang out again: "Celestial Venerable descends, believers kowtow!"
At this time, regardless of belief, after witnessing the earlier miraculous sound of chanting, one might have some faith, and coming to the Chen Family for this event naturally required adhering to the host’s customs.
Thus, the visitors in the main hall almost simultaneously kowtowed.
Mr. Wang Sr., Wang Xinhe, and others were the most proactive in kowtowing, particularly Mr. Wang Sr., who was deeply convinced of this, and kowtowed with great piety.
"Raise the palanquin!" the aunt’s voice rang out once more, and then the Six Ding and Six Jia lifted the Celestial Venerable’s statue again, proceeding outward.
Outside, the palanquin halted once more, and the aunt again called out: "Celestial Venerable descends, believers kowtow!"
Following the aunt’s call, though the believers around were not as enthusiastic as those in the main hall, many still kowtowed nonetheless, for matters like this are better believed than not.
The act of kowtowing naturally prompted others to follow.
As they proceeded, this was repeated continuously, and more and more visitors participated in the kowtowing.
Soon, the palanquin was out of the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable Hall Street. By now, tourists began taking out their phones to capture the scene.
Because beyond this point, they were no longer within the hall’s range and could record as the Celestial Venerable went out on the road. There was no special reminder from anyone in the Chen Family.
Simply put, if you liken the Celestial Venerable to a celebrity, recording inside a celebrity’s house with a phone is not allowed; it’s impolite and illegal.
If a celebrity is out and about, and you record it without using it for unlawful purposes, then it’s permissible.
The Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable Hall is the Celestial Venerable’s Palace, so during the ceremony, recording from inside the Celestial Venerable’s Palace was disrespectful. However, once the Celestial Venerable leaves the hall, recording from the roadside is permissible as long as it doesn’t involve blasphemy.
