Half a month later, a huge temple was completed in the Holy Spirit City. It was a three-entry, three-level temple. The first level had ninety-nine steps, the second level had one hundred and eight steps, and the third level had three hundred and six steps.
The temple where the statue is located is in the hall above the 306th step. This three-story temple is completely in the architectural style of the Jambu world, which makes the priest named "Arnold" very confused.
But the heavenly soldiers told him that 'the Lord lives in a temple like this'. If Reverend Arnold questioned them, the heavenly soldiers would ask him: "Have you seen the Lord? You haven't? I have!"
How could Arnold, a mere priest, have ever seen the Supreme Lord? The image of the Lord in their minds was entirely a figment of their own imagination. The statues of the Lord worshipped in their previous temples were only vaguely carved images.
This is not the fault of the person who carved the statue, but the doctrine of the Church of Light is such that the statue of the "Lord" cannot be carved too clearly or in too much detail.
On the third day after the temple was completed, the holy light finally descended upon the temple. This time, Lu Fengxian landed directly inside the temple. The "holy light" that filled the sky was draped over his body, making it almost impossible for people to open their eyes.
Under Lu Fengxian's order, all the heavenly soldiers stood guard on the steps of the triple temple. Then Priest Arnold led 10,000 believers and proudly and reverently climbed the triple temple built by their own hands, and then entered the spacious and huge main hall of the highest temple.
In the center of the main hall stood a ten-foot-tall statue, but at this moment it was covered by a huge red silk cloth, and Lu Fengxian was covered in "holy light" and stood quietly at the bottom of the statue.
After Reverend Arnold and all the believers lined up in the hall, Lu Fengxian immediately said, "Now, everyone please bow three times to the Lord and pray with me."
After saying that, Lu Fengxian personally led the believers to bow three times to the statue, and then began to pray devoutly. Of course, the words of the prayer were recited by Lu Fengxian first, and then the others followed suit.
Priest Arnold keenly discovered that the words of today's prayer seemed a little different, and were not from the prayers in the Illuminati's "Nerve" at all.
But Arnold found that he could not stop, because he felt that if he stopped praying, a huge disaster would befall him.
"Perhaps this is the Lord's words that have never been passed down to the world." Arnold could only think so in his heart.
But as the prayer went on, Arnold was horrified to find that his magic power was dissipating, and it seemed that something was being stripped out from the depths of his soul and then left his body.
When Lu Fengxian announced the end of the prayer and the tens of thousands of believers looked up blankly, Arnold's face was already filled with panic. He didn't know what was going on and could only look at Lu Fengxian.
Lu Fengxian also looked at Arnold. When he saw that Arnold's original spiritual power and magic power, which was equivalent to that of a cultivator in the Void Refinement Realm, had disappeared, a very bright smile suddenly appeared on his face, which meant that he had succeeded.
Lu Fengxian had some research on the Church of Light. He knew that the spiritual power and magical powers of the monks of the Church of Light came from their so-called "Lord". The more devout their faith, the faster they would practice.
However, although Arnold was very pious in his prayer just now, the object of his prayer was not his original "Lord", so the power of faith was transferred. Without the favor of the power of the Church of Light, his Taoist practice and magic power naturally dissipated.
Lu Fengxian retracted his gaze and said, "Now, unveil the statue of the Lord."
As soon as he finished speaking, the "holy light" on Lu Fengxian's body suddenly flew up, and then lifted the red silk covering the statue.
As the huge red silk slowly fell to the ground, the appearance of the statue appeared clearly in the eyes of everyone in the hall.
"Ah?!" When Arnold saw the statue clearly, he screamed, and then his whole body trembled violently several times. Although the details of the main statue in their previous temple were very vague, he knew the general image.
But the statue in front of me is different from the previous ones in every way!
Arnold broke out in a sweat. As a priest of the Church of Light, he finally understood why his "divine power" had disappeared. It was because he worshipped the wrong god!
Although he is a priest of the Church of Light and can say that the heavenly soldiers and generals and Fang Jian were sent by the Creator God Yahweh to save them, this does not mean that he can worship everyone as "Lord".
Now, his fanaticism harmed him. His fanaticism made him believe in Lu Fengxian and his words. He did not wake up until his "divine power" disappeared and he saw the statue in front of him.
The believers were also stunned. They seemed to have realized the problem, and for a moment all eyes were focused on Arnold.
"Priest." Lu Fengxian narrowed his eyes and looked at Arnold and said, "You have already worshipped the Lord just now. You should worship the Lord again now. Otherwise, it will be a great disrespect to the Lord. The Lord will punish you and you will go to hell."
When Arnold heard Lu Fengxian's words, he shuddered for a moment and then his face turned pale.
He is now considered a 'traitor' of the Church of Light and has betrayed Yahweh. Even if he dies now, given his familiarity with the Church of Light when he was a priest, he will definitely go to hell.
At this time, Lu Fengxian said again: "Worship the Lord once more, and the Lord will bless you and forgive your 'sins'."
Arnold opened his mouth, but no words came out. After a long moment, he sighed. He had no other choice now. Either he would be executed by these people, his soul bound for eternal damnation in the Church of Light. Or he would return to faith in this "Lord" before him and receive his favor and forgiveness.
