"By the way, do you know how to perform the Divine Prayer dance?"

"The Resentful Woman."

The Resentful Woman changed her clothes.

She no longer wore a white shirt and short skirt as before, but instead donned a long red dress, as fiery and dazzling as a flame, which complemented the Daoist priest's red robe.

However, the dress was also covered with many talismans with intricate runes, giving it a mysterious and strange inhuman feel.

Nevertheless, if one does not look closely, the Resentful Woman's appearance is truly no different from that of a human, as if she were a beautiful woman.

The Resentful Woman shook her sleeves, as if showing off her new clothes.

"Alright," the Daoist heard its reply.

The Daoist extended his right hand, making an elegant gesture of invitation. "I'm not very familiar with the Divine Prayer Dance, but... there's a dance I saw once and have never forgotten."

The Daoist took the Resentful Woman's hand and led her into the center of the magic circle.

The time has come.

The Daoist led it in a unique dance.

Are they Divine Prayer?

There were quite a few onlookers.

Some people even set up cameras to film this special Divine Prayer dance.

"Is this Divine Prayer dance?" Yang Yu looked at it for a while and then quickly went online to look up some information.

However, this dance is a bit special, and he couldn't find any information about it online.

"Strange, no relevant information was found."

"Some Divine Prayer dances are unique cultural practices developed by local ethnic minorities or in mountainous areas; the Divine Prayer dances vary from place to place."

"Many of these things aren't documented online. Unless you've traveled to the place or specifically studied the culture, you won't be able to find them."

Seeing Yang Yu sweating profusely with anxiety, a logistics staff member kindly offered to answer his questions.

"Not to mention that different worlds can develop different Divine Prayer dances. Daoist Contract Anomalist, and he has the authority to travel to other worlds to complete missions."

"Perhaps he once accepted a mission to another world, and then saw this Divine Prayer dance in one of those worlds."

Another world?

Then it's impossible to find it.

Yang Yu frowned. He didn't have the ability to search for clues in other worlds, so he finally gave up on his plan to find information online.

They watched quietly from the Divine Altar.

That was a Divine Prayer dance performed by a person and a ghost.

There was no physical contact between them, as it was a Divine Prayer ceremony, and the dance was more about attracting the attention of the gods and expressing respect and supplication.

Let the gods hear their heartfelt prayers.

Slowly, a special power descended from above the Divine Altar, enveloping them.

The livestock, which had been making a racket, suddenly fell silent.

They kept their mouths tightly shut, as if they were frightened. The chickens and ducks huddled together, burying their heads on the ground, not daring to lift them up.

The cattle and sheep lay prostrate on the ground, seemingly kneeling in worship of some great being.

Those below the Divine Altar felt a chill run down their spines.

It's here!

The logistics staff were a little flustered, but they also showed good composure, calmly moving all the livestock to the vicinity of the Divine Altar.

Then they quickly retreated, lest the One unknown god use them as sacrifices as well.

The step of offering a living sacrifice is now complete.

Under the influence of that force, the livestock suddenly took flight and disappeared into the air one by one.

The gods accepted the offered human sacrifice.

This shows that He will fulfill the prayers of those who pray.

The Daoist and the Resentful Woman stopped, and he looked up at the sky.

He could sense a gaze looking down on them from above.

Was this Divine Prayer a success or a failure?

He hadn't forgotten that Divine Prayer rituals weren't 100% successful, and the instructions didn't explain how things could fail or how they could succeed.

Everything was learned through trial and error.

Fearing that failure would result in severe penalties that would render the Character Card unusable, Shen Yu also brought Fu Zhang, who was stationed at Headquarters, over.

As the most stable and powerful fighting force, he can at least hold them off for a bit.

The Daoist and the Resentful Woman stood quietly on the Divine Altar.

That gaze seemed to be scrutinizing them, yet it also seemed to be simply observing them.

at last.

A beam of golden light shone down.

The Daoist and the Resentful Woman bathed together in this golden light.

They felt as if something had changed in their bodies, yet it seemed as if nothing had happened.

The golden light lasted only a few seconds before it began to dissipate and disappear.

That force also suddenly disappeared.

Everything has returned to normal.

Those around them gasped for breath, realizing they had been holding their breath in their nervousness.

After a few minutes of silence.

The Resentful Woman returned to the Daoist's body.

The Daoist also stepped down from the Divine Altar.

Only then did those people dare to speak up.

"It's over?"

What just happened?

What was that golden light? Was the Divine Prayer ceremony successful?

The Daoist Divine Prayer that if the prayer failed, the cooldown period was one month. After a month, he could simply hold the prayer again.

If successful, the cooldown period will be ten years.

To determine whether the ritual was successful or not, simply check the cooldown time of the ability.

The Daoist checked the ability and found that it had been locked and could not be used at present, and the cooldown time had become ten years.

This indicates that the ceremony was a success.

The Daoist replied, "It's done."

However, hidden by the talisman, he frowned slightly, because he couldn't sense what the reward would be after the ritual was completed.

Could it be that golden light?

Congratulations Daoist?

"The pressure was so strong when that power descended just now, it felt like Divine Descent. I was so nervous I didn't dare to breathe."

"Me too, I don't dare to move at all, afraid of offending the gods."

"Divine Prayer Divine Prayer, praying to gods—but do gods really exist?"

"Perhaps it's just a more powerful, or even higher-dimensional being, beyond our own."

"A being possessing immense power, capable of accomplishing what we cannot, would naturally be worshipped as a god."

"God help me, I hope I don't have too much work this month."

"Hahaha, I can't guarantee that. It would be great if those Contract Anomalist Masters could behave themselves and not cause too much trouble."

"Wow, that's even more unreasonable."

The gods would say, "That won't work, choose another wish."

"I wouldn't even dare to dream of getting Contract Anomalist to behave himself."

"Logically, gods could achieve this, but this amount of human sacrifice probably wouldn't be enough. Perhaps a large amount of strange energy would be sufficient."

"How should we achieve this?"
