Chapter 83 Upgrading the Temple
This damn place in Japan is prone to breeding ghosts, just like cockroaches in the south, which are hard to guard against, not to mention that so many people died here at once, especially on the narrow mountain road in Onimaru Mountain, where hundreds of people died. It is no exaggeration to say that it is the road to hell. So at night, there are many ghost shadows and phosphorous lights everywhere, and even special effects are saved for shooting ghost movies. When Sadako comes here, she has to pout and take a selfie as a tourist attraction.

If most of the troops stationed in Guiwan Mountain Castle were not system soldiers, they would be afraid but dare not neglect their duties, and there would have been chaos long ago.

But it’s not the same in other places, especially in the village. The movement of pots and pans can make them uneasy for a long time, not to mention the ghost lights floating outside at night.

Not to mention the villagers, even the Taro brothers who were in charge of patrolling could not bear it anymore. They had to run to Guandi Temple three times a day and kneel down, and the redness on their foreheads did not show any sign of fading.

Yan Xu immediately called Sen Ya to ask if he had any good solution, at least to make sure Guiwanshan didn't omit the middle word.

Who would have thought that when Sen Ya arrived, her eyes revealed three parts of helplessness, three parts of embarrassment, three parts of resignation, and one part was too young to see clearly, so Yan Xu was prepared to listen to her excuses.

Sen Ya had no choice. Except for a few priestesses, most of the priestesses' abilities came from the gods they worshipped. Without the power bestowed by the gods, it was difficult for the priestesses to do anything.

It just so happens that Sen Ya gave up the gods he had worshipped before, but has not yet obtained the approval of Guan Di, which means that many of his methods are now unusable.

But this is not a reason to say that she is powerless. As the first priestess in the territory, if Sen Ya does not want to lose her superior status, she must come up with a solution to the problem.

In fact, the problem of Onimaru Mountain is very easy to solve, which is to let Hibiki truly inherit the position of mountain god.

The problem is that Xianggui has only just reached adulthood among the ghosts, which is equivalent to a human age of thirteen or fourteen. His body has not yet fully developed, let alone mastering the power of a ghost. Forcing him to be deified at this time is no different from forcing things to grow too fast for Xianggui.

Yan Xu had high expectations for Xiang Gui and was training him as his confidant, so he rejected this proposal.

Hearing this, Sen Ya secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was not that she had no other choice, but that the adults did not agree. Then she selfishly proposed a second solution, which was to teach her the Central Plains sacrificial method and seek the help of Guandi.

If Xianggui is too weak, then Guandi is too strong, so strong that Sen Ya can't do anything about it, because she has never thought that she can come into contact with a god of such a high level, so high that she can't even touch him, let alone borrow his power.

But she was unwilling to give up. After all, this was the only chance in her life. How could Sen Ya be willing to give up? So she placed her hopes on adults.

Yan Xu was speechless after hearing this. He also wanted to borrow Guandi's power, but how to borrow it was a problem. The magical power still depended on the system, so he had no idea where to start.

In fact, when Yan Xu knew that there were ghosts and gods in Japan, he had thought about becoming a god, but there is a threshold to becoming a god in Japan, and that is, you cannot be a human being.

Although he wanted to break through his limits and stop being a human, Yan Xu was not ready to stop being a human yet. What's more, transforming into a Japanese monster was too cheap, and he was unwilling to do that from the bottom of his heart.

Moreover, the ghosts and gods in Japan are not recognized by heaven and earth, nor are they canonized by the Heavenly Court. Except for those in ancient times that appeared out of nowhere and took up a place, most of them are forcibly bound through the condensation of incense and faith, so they are not very reliable. Once they lose their shrines and faith, they will immediately become unemployed, comparable to temporary workers.

Yan Xu, who had an unlimited future, simply gave up and placed his hopes on the future, but the current problems still had to be solved.

Thinking of this, Yan Xu touched his chin, maybe he had a solution.

At this time, Yan Xu was extremely grateful that he still had a lot of luck points. In addition, the fighting on the secondary island had been intense recently, and he sold arms everywhere to help boost the situation. His luck points exceeded ten thousand again. He didn't know how many people had died as a result of this.

If he didn't have this confidence, Yan Xu would have to spend a lot of money to hire the local extraordinary people here.

However, this will undoubtedly expose a shortcoming of the Moroboshi family, which will inevitably be targeted in the future, so we must take the opportunity to make up for it.

Yan Xu was determined and, despite his fears, he led Xianggui Senya and others through the Road of Hell and came to the mountain shrine at the foot of the mountain.

After the systematic reconstruction, the Johor Bahru Shrine is taller and neater, and ordinary shrines are not so complete. Unfortunately, there are wars everywhere, and the weather is cold, so no one comes to worship.

Hibiki vaguely knew the importance of the mountain shrine to her, so she ran to the kitchen to see if there was anything delicious. As a result, the shrine maiden Maki skillfully invited her to sit in the shrine, and then respectfully offered her delicious food.

Seeing this scene, Sen Ya was even a little envious, because this was the most direct and convenient way to have a good relationship with the gods, but it was a pity that she couldn't use it.

Seeing that Xianggui was eating so sweetly, Yan Xu hesitated again, because he didn't know if it would work, but the problem had to be solved after all, so he made up his mind to infuse a thousand luck points into the Mountain Shrine. As a result, the new mechanism of the system was triggered, and a lot of information appeared in front of him.

There are two types of system buildings: one is an ordinary building that consumes resources to build, and the other is a special building that is infused with luck points.

Ordinary buildings are just ordinary buildings, there is nothing special about them, but if they are infused with luck points, they will have attributes.

For example, if the city walls are infused with luck points, they will have properties such as solidity, rebound, and reduced wear.

However, the most cost-effective special building is still the shrine.

Unfortunately, ordinary shrines can be built at will, but there can only be one special shrine unless a subordinate relationship is formed.

In other words, Yan Xu must first upgrade a main shrine before he can bind the subordinate shrines.

This has a prerequisite. First of all, the rank of the main shrine must be high. If it is not high, how can a subordinate relationship be formed?

The problem now is that he is not sure whether he can bind the subordinate relationship, so he can only rely on the system.

This statue in the territory came from the modern world where there are no gods. Because it had been worshipped with incense, it underwent a few changes after coming to the Japanese world with ghosts and gods. However, it was not until Yan Xu infused one thousand luck points into it through the system that it began to possess initial magical powers.

But it is only the beginning, because a real statue of God is not only shrouded in divine light, but also has a bit of spirituality.

This means that the statue has an owner and will not be occupied by wild gods. It also means that one can communicate directly with the true God, just like inserting a SIM card into a mobile phone to activate more functions.

However, this statue in the territory only has the form but not the meaning. To put it bluntly, it is just a fraud, claiming to be a Guandi Temple, but in fact Guandi doesn't even know about it, let alone pay attention to it.

Therefore, the magical power Yan Xu obtained can only develop his potential, but has no other means.

But if we go one step further, this Guandi Temple will have a deeper connection with Guandi until a bit of true spirit descends.

Yan Xu was not afraid of exposing himself. Regardless of Guan Di's character, the existence of the bronze door alone made him worry-free.

Yan Xu didn’t know what the bronze door was, but from the fact that it could communicate with all the heavens and worlds, he knew that it was definitely a top-notch treasure, so there was no need to worry about it locking him down.

What's more, as one of the most widely believed gods, Guandi has countless incarnations, so how can he know them all? Besides, even if he knew, so what? In view of his contribution to the expansion of territory, he might even have to praise him and give him some benefits.

Thinking of this, Yan Xu decisively spent all the luck points he had accumulated during this period, leaving only a small fraction of them.
