The fact that Qin Yun had given him two Great Dao Origins alone was enough to make him bow to Qin Yun.
"If you have time in the future, remember to come here and offer incense more often," Qin Yun said.
"And if you get the chance, remember to spread the word about my Mountain God Temple," Qin Yun added with a smile.
For some reason, this felt a little like a pyramid scheme... Qin Yun could not help thinking.
But Qin Yun shook his head and said nothing.
Tongtian kept nodding at Qin Yun's words without raising any objection.
"Alright, that'll be all for now," Qin Yun said.
Tongtian nodded. "Then, Mountain God, Tongtian shall take his leave." He cupped his fists toward Qin Yun in farewell.
Qin Yun nodded. The next moment, he waved his hand, and Tongtian left this Inner Space and returned to the temple.
Standing inside the temple, Tongtian looked once more at the wooden spirit tablet on the offering table. The words Qingyi Mountain God were written upon it.
Tongtian thought for a moment, then took three incense sticks from the side, lit them, and reverently placed them into the incense burner.
Afterward, Tongtian bowed once more before the tablet.
[ Ding! Detected Tongtian offering incense to the host. As this is Tongtian's second incense offering today, the host has obtained 100,000 Incense Value. ]
The system's voice rang out in Qin Yun's mind.
He had not expected Tongtian to offer incense to him again!
Although this offering had only brought him 100,000 Incense Value, far less than the 500,000 from the first time, it was still quite good!
When the same person offered incense in the temple on the same day, only the first three offerings could provide Incense Value, and the amount provided would decrease each time.
Those were the temple's rules.
After offering the incense, Tongtian looked at the tablet once more before turning and leaving.
Hongyun was still in seclusion, comprehending his cultivation technique.
Having obtained the two Great Dao Origins, Tongtian also intended to refine them.
He found a quiet place as well and began his seclusion.
A few days later.
A young woman arrived at an unnamed mountain. As she walked along, she came upon a temple.
The young woman looked at the temple with great curiosity.
Quite a few Mountain Spirits and Wild Monsters were coming and going from the temple. They all appeared deeply devout, as though they had come to worship there.
"This temple is truly miraculous!" one monster said.
"My cultivation has improved again!" another monster said happily.
"A cultivation technique I could never comprehend before—I came here, offered incense, and actually managed to understand it!" yet another monster said excitedly.
The young woman looked at them, curiosity still written across her beautiful face.
"Is this temple really that miraculous?" the woman asked curiously.
Hearing this, one monster replied, "Of course it is! We come here to offer incense every day!"
The other monsters all nodded in agreement.
"Miss, are you from somewhere else?" one monster asked as he looked at the young woman.
The young woman nodded.
She had indeed come from elsewhere.
"Miss, this temple really is miraculous. Why not go in and offer a stick of incense yourself?" one monster said.
The other monsters nodded as well.
Curiosity still lingered on the woman's face. She looked at the temple again, then nodded.
The woman stepped into the temple, and several monsters could not help glancing at her again and again.
"This young lady... she's so beautiful..." one monster blurted out.
"This young lady is really gorgeous!" another monster said involuntarily as he watched her.
"I wonder if this young lady..." another monster began, his eyes fixed straight on the young woman.
Hearing them, one monster glanced at them and said coldly, "Stop dreaming! This young lady's cultivation is very high! You are no match for her at all!"
At those words, the monsters sensed that something was off. This young lady's cultivation indeed seemed incredibly high...
Looking toward her, they could only feel that her cultivation was as vast as the sea, utterly beyond the reach of little shrimps like them.
Seeing this, the monsters withdrew their gazes and no longer dared entertain any improper thoughts.
The young woman paid no attention to what the monsters were thinking. She entered the temple, whose furnishings were rather simple.
There was an offering table, and upon it sat a wooden spirit tablet bearing the words Qingyi Mountain God.
"Qingyi Mountain God..." The young woman looked at the spirit tablet, blinked, parted her red lips, and read aloud the four words inscribed upon it.
"I've never heard of this mountain god..." the young woman muttered to herself.
"Miss, Qingyi Mountain God may not be famous, but this temple truly is miraculous! This Qingyi Mountain God is miraculous too!" one spirit creature said with a smile.
The other spirit creatures nodded as well.
"I feel like my cultivation has improved again!" one spirit creature said.
"I just offered incense here, and I feel that I've gained new insight into the cultivation technique I practice!" another spirit creature said.
The young woman looked at them, feeling that they did not seem like shills.
Moreover, she could keenly sense that the spirit creatures were not speaking empty words. Their cultivation seemed to have truly improved by a tiny amount.
Though the improvement was not great, gaining even a little in such a short time was already a lot!
The young woman seemed to speak to herself. "Is this temple really that miraculous?"
Several spirit creatures could not help nodding. "It's very miraculous!"
The young woman could not stop herself from thinking, I'm currently at the mid-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm. I've been stuck here all this time, unable to break through...
Why don't I offer a stick of incense here as well...
If this place really is so miraculous...
Thinking this, the woman could not help but nod lightly.
Then, moved by her thoughts, the woman walked to the side, took three incense sticks, lit them, and went before the offering table. She bowed to the wooden spirit tablet, then stepped forward and inserted the incense into the incense burner.
[ Ding! A Person of Great Luck has been detected offering incense. A ten-thousandfold critical reward has been triggered. Host has obtained 500,000 Incense Value! ]
The system's voice rang out in Qin Yun's mind.
At that moment, Qin Yun was lying in a recliner, leisurely gazing at the sky.
The sky was so blue, with white clouds drifting by—truly beautiful.
A Person of Great Luck... Another Person of Great Luck has come?
Qin Yun narrowed his eyes slightly and thought, Which Person of Great Luck could it be?
Hongyun, or Tongtian?
Qin Yun lazily raised a hand and waved it before his eyes. The scene inside the temple appeared before him.
Inside the temple stood a beautiful woman, lovely as a flower and fair as jade.
The moment he saw her, Qin Yun's eyes could not help but pause slightly.
There had been female worshippers who came here to offer incense before, but honestly, this was the first time Qin Yun had seen a woman this beautiful.
