Chapter 337: White Tiger Returns
With the help of the land god and the door gods, Yang Xiangwei's incense became popular instantly.
There is an endless stream of people coming and going in front of the mountain temple. Devotees hold incense and candles in their hands and kneel down to worship devoutly. The rising smoke seems to be the bond between mortals and gods, continuously conveying people's prayers.
In the idol grocery store, the owner was extremely busy. He had to deal with customers who were selecting idols while answering questions about various idols.
"Boss, is there any stock of this statue of the mountain god? I would like to take it home to worship it." A middle-aged man with simple clothes but sincere eyes asked anxiously.
The shop owner wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled as he responded, "Yes, yes, yes. Please wait a moment and I'll get it for you. The statue of the mountain god has been selling very well these days, thanks to the gods of the land and the gods of the gates."
At the same time, there were crowds of people in front of the land temple.
The villagers brought homemade snacks, fruits and other offerings and carefully placed them in front of the land temple, chanting: "Lord Land, thanks to your blessing last time, you drove away the monsters and blessed us with a good harvest and our families are safe."
On the doors of every household, brand new portraits of door gods gleam in the sun, as if silently guarding everyone in the house.
Yang Xiangwei sat on the throne of the mountain temple, feeling the power of the incense pouring in, and was secretly proud of herself.
Although he would never admit to taking "commission" and insisted that it was a tribute, the slightly upturned corners of his mouth still revealed his good mood.
With incense, He will have more room to play, right?

…
Yang Xiangwei took a look at her incense value.
[Incense value: 16214030]
Well, not bad, not bad, a big increase.
It just so happened that He had always been thinking about the four divine beasts, and this time He could let them "return to their places".
With the increase in believers and the expansion of the territory, the land lord and the door gods alone would definitely not be able to govern such a large area, but the situation would be different if the four sacred beasts were used.
Because the four divine beasts are originally in charge of the four directions. As long as they guard the four directions of east, west, south and north, guarding the four directions is equivalent to guarding the territory.
Even if other things happen in the territory, they are all under control.
Yang Xiangwei's figure flashed, and when she reappeared, she had already reached the top of Huangshan Mountain. Looking at the misty peak, he thought: Has Huangshan Mountain grown taller?
I felt it and it seemed that I had indeed grown taller.
Yang Xiangwei's heart moved, and she carefully sensed the changes in the territory. She discovered that not only Huangshan, but also the mountains, rivers and streams in the territory seemed to be glowing with more vigorous vitality, and the spiritual energy of the earth became more rich and mellow. This was undoubtedly the effect of the power of incense feeding back.
"It turns out that it also has an impact on my original body in this world..." Yang Xiangwei whispered to herself. He thought that this world was stingy and "restricted" him so much that they might not even give him room to grow. He didn't expect that they still gave him room to grow.
Well, just give it if you want to. Why not just open it up directly instead of putting so many restrictions?
Yang Xiangwei curled her lips.
Of course He knew that if He were the world consciousness, He would definitely impose so many "restrictions" just in case when He was not sure whether the person He invited was a human or a ghost.
But, even though I know it, I still learn it after reciting a few words.
Yang Xiangwei raised her eyes and gazed into the distance, her thoughts drifting towards the four sacred beasts that were about to return home.
She had invited the White Tiger Mountain King out before, but because of the limited incense offerings at that time, she took advantage of a coincidence and not only detained the White Tiger in the position of the Mountain King, but also let it temporarily take over some of the powers of the Azure Dragon. Now it was time to let it go free.
Yang Xiangwei's mind moved, and strange movements suddenly occurred in the mountains.
The originally peaceful Huangshan Mountain was now hit by strong winds. The trees were blown all over the place, making creaking sounds.
The clouds on the top of the mountain seemed to be stirred by an invisible giant hand, spinning rapidly to form a huge vortex.
Sensing something, the White Tiger Mountain King looked up at the sky, its already majestic eyes now filled with confusion and expectation.
As a divine beast, it could naturally sense that the source of this mysterious power was Yang Xiangwei.
"roar……"
Baihushanjun raised his head slightly and let out a low roar, with a hint of urgency in his voice, as if asking why this sudden change had happened.
Yang Xiangwei's voice echoed through the heavens and the earth: "Lord Baihushan, it has been a long time since I detained you here. At that time, due to the lack of incense, many arrangements were helpless. Now, there are more and more believers, and the incense is flourishing. It is time for you to return to your throne."
As the voice fell, a dazzling white light burst out from Yang Xiangwei's hand and shot straight towards Baihushanjun.
The light contained the power of runes that could release restraints. They were like agile elves, circling and dancing around the White Tiger Mountain King and gradually merging into its body.
Baihushanjun only felt a powerful force surging in his body, and the shackles that had originally imprisoned his power shattered one after another.
It shook its body excitedly, and every strand of its white hair stood up, sparkling with a bright luster.
"roar……"
The White Tiger Mountain King, who broke free from his restraints, let out a deafening roar towards the sky, a roar filled with joy and relief at regaining his freedom.
It leaped forward, its figure looming in the clouds and mist, and every leap caused the surrounding air currents to roll violently.
Yang Xiangwei looked at Baihushanjun's actions, nodded slightly, and said: "Now that you are free again, go to the west to guard and keep my territory safe."
Baihushanjun turned in the air, nodded in the direction of Yang Xiangwei, and then turned into a white stream of light and rushed towards the west.
Wherever it passed, the wind and clouds changed color, and the animals in the mountains and forests prostrated themselves on the ground, as if worshiping this majestic beast.
With the departure of the White Tiger Mountain Lord, the unusual movements in Huangshan gradually subsided, but the afterglow caused by the power of the mythical beast still lingered in the mountains for a long time.
[Incense value: 14214030]
Yang Xiangwei took a look at the incense value and found that it was indeed not cheap. Seven digits were gone just like that.
This is just to put it back in place. If we change it to Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, or Black Tortoise, I'm afraid we will have to clear it all out again.
Yang Xiangwei cast her gaze towards the east, borrowed a wisp of divine soul between heaven and earth, and prepared to create a blue dragon to guard the east.
The Azure Dragon is a mythical beast that governs the east and controls the clouds and rain. It is crucial to the vitality and prosperity of the territory, which is why he had allowed the White Tiger to temporarily take over some of the Azure Dragon's powers and responsibilities.
There is no other way. He needs “thugs” and also the authority to “prosper and bring vitality.”
Yang Xiangwei slowly raised her hands, with her palms facing each other, and there seemed to be an invisible force pulling and entangled between them.
He was muttering something, and an ancient and mysterious spell was echoing on the top of the mountain. The sound seemed to come from the beginning of time, carrying a majestic momentum of the creation of the world.
As the spell sounded, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth began to surge wildly, converging towards Yang Xiangwei.
The originally azure sky was now obscured by the rich spiritual energy, presenting a strange blue-green light, as if giving birth to a whole new world.
In the vortex of spiritual energy, Yang Xiangwei carefully placed the borrowed soul in the core position.
Wrapped in spiritual energy, this soul is like a sleeping seed, waiting to be awakened.
