Chapter 722 The Return of the Gods 6
And the original body was none other than the Holy Maiden of the Temple.
He has amazing bones and extraordinary talents.
At the age of eight, she stood out from millions of people and was chosen as a saint by the temple. She served in the temple since she was a child, burning incense and practicing every day, praying for all living beings in the Sky Continent and asking the gods to bless the people.
The saint is more like a symbol of the temple, revered by millions of people. Disrespecting the saint is disrespecting the gods.
"In a few days, it will be the Day of Divine Prayer. I know you want to defeat Liu Yao, so I have been practicing with all my might. However, when it comes to practice, if you are too eager for success, there is a risk of going astray. The Palace Master will also be there on the Day of Divine Prayer, so you must not make a fool of yourself in front of the Palace Master."
A hint of surprise flashed across Quan Jiu's lowered eyes.
In the original body's memory, the temple master who built the temple was elusive. Except for a few elders with rich experience who had seen his true appearance, others had only heard rumors about him.
No matter whether they are ordinary people or cultivators, they have never seen a true god. Strictly speaking, this palace master can be regarded as the most honorable person in the Cangkong Continent.
Quan Jiu had never seen this Palace Master before:
"Master, if I remember correctly, the Palace Master hasn't appeared in three hundred years."
The last time the Palace Master appeared was to fight for a fire phoenix divine egg.
Wan Chaolin also looked thoughtful:
"I haven't heard of this rumor, but it's a good thing for you. If the gods choose you on the day of prayer, the hall master will definitely have a good impression of you."
There is more than one goddess.
Including Quan Jiu, there are four in total, and Liu Yao is one of them.
The other two posed no threat to Quan Jiu, except for Liu Yao, whose talent was comparable to hers. She was kind to others, had a compassionate heart, and was skilled in animal taming. She tamed spirit beasts for the sect and the dynasty, winning over many people's hearts.
The four goddesses were all born on the same day of the same month of the same year. When a goddess turns eighteen, which is the day of prayer, the gods will give an oracle to the chosen saint.
The three people who are not chosen will have their titles of saints revoked, and in the end only one person can truly become a saint.
"Disciple will definitely not let Master down."
Quan Jiu looked respectful, but his eyes seemed thoughtful.
"You should get some rest. The Black Valley has been uneasy lately. I'm afraid that the devil has awakened again. I'll go check on the seal and will be able to reach the Wei Kingdom branch in two days."
Wan Chaolin hung up the voice stone, and the figure floating in the air shattered and disappeared.
The surroundings became quiet, and Quan Jiu finally had time to think about his situation.
Her original name was Chen Luan. She was the niece of the Empress Dowager of Wei. She was chosen as a saint at the age of eight and left the palace for the temple.
"The Temple is a huge mountain weighing down the old feudal dynasty. Queen Mother Wei doesn't like being controlled by others, so she wants to use Chen Luan to reversely control the Temple."
But Chen Luan had been away from the palace for ten years and had long lost her affection for the people in the palace. She also understood that Queen Mother Wei was only using her. Under the repeated pressure of Queen Mother Wei, she finally tore her face off and refused to work for the Wei royal family anymore.
Unexpectedly, Queen Mother Wei was a ruthless character who had planted a soul-attracting Gu in her body ten years ago.
The poisonous insect attacked, causing Chen Luan to suffer excruciating pain and fall into a situation where she was at the mercy of others. This led to the bloody scene in which Quan Jiu traveled through.
The soul-calling Gu is difficult to remove. If you want to remove the Gu, you must find the mother Gu, kill it and take it as medicine. Then the child Gu hidden in Quan Jiu's body will lose its effect.
The most urgent tasks at the moment are, first, to find the mother Gu, and second, to prepare for the day of praying to the gods as soon as possible.
