Dajin Capital City, Haoyang City.

It rained continuously for two days, which is very rare for the capital in autumn.

Under the early dynasty, Emperor Fengtian turned the Hall of Light, did not enter, and went straight to the Ming Palace.

"They're all waiting outside, no one is allowed to enter!"

"Slaves obey!"

The two little eunuchs pushed open the door of the hall left and right, Emperor Fengtian entered, and the door closed again.

Emperor Fengtian felt three breaths of concentration, and then stepped around the screen, and there was another bedroom behind him.

The emperor did not stop in his bedroom, but walked straight to the east wall, where there was a wooden pillar the size of a bowl with a dragon carving.

With his hand on the dragon's head, he turned and pressed again, and the east wall slowly opened.

This is the most powerful man in the Dajin Dynasty, and there is a secret room in his palace.

There are more than 30 meters of corridor down the secret room, and some night pearls are placed, and the light is also bright.

At the bottom, there was a stone room, and on the stone table was a jade box, and in the jade box there was a black olive-shaped crystal, which was somewhat broken.

"It's no wonder that Ding Shimao hid and didn't report it, this thing is magical, just its passing power, I can only guide it to one-twelfth, and it is possible to break through the innate one!"

"There is such a strange thing in the world, and with the help of this thing, within five years, I will be able to advance to the innate level. ”

"At that time, I will be able to prolong my life for another 200 years, and many things that the previous emperors wanted to do but could not do can be completed in my hands. ”

The 500-year-old Great Jin Dynasty has been plagued by internal and external troubles all the time. Speaking of this internal worry alone, there are temples in various places, ostensibly respecting this imperial power, but in fact, I do my own thing, just because I have the name and actual strength of the gods.

There are also those sects that have been inherited for thousands of years, some of the big factions, and even have innate seats, although the innate strong cannot fight against the army, but once they turn their faces, it is a big trouble, and these forces can only be gentle.

Then there are some powerful families, some of which are thousands of years old, these families not only have strong economic strength and strong cohesion, but also have a thousand-year-old heritage, and some of them are also congenital, and the imperial power cannot be controlled at will.

At the end of the day, it's still strength.

--

In Penglai County, the sky was clear, and the villagers finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The storm came strangely, and some people speculated that it was the anger of some god.

The rumors spread, and there was a reflection, so the temple in the village came to worship one after another.

This temple is not big, but it enshrines a statue of a god, Zhang Erleng told Ding Mu and others about the situation, saying that it is the god of the sea.

This temple is, of course, Tanah Lot Temple.

Ding Mu knew that there were gods in this world, and he was a little curious, so he proposed to worship the god of the sea.

Zhang Erleng is welcome, the gods are also divided into schools, most people only believe in one god, this Mu Gongzi is willing to worship the god of the sea, then there is a chance to be his own family.

Uncle Fu had doubts, but the young master had opened the light in the Temple of War, how could he go to worship other gods?

Ding Mu said: "Follow the customs of the country, we are now in a foreign country, we have received the favor of others, and worship the gods of others, which is also respect." ”

The young master was right, so he let the old slave go with the son. ”

In front of outsiders, Uncle Fu and others all called Ding Mu a son.

"Okay, Qin Gang, a few of you will stay here and prepare some food. Also, Ban Lianhu's gang has to be careful. Even though we don't have anything to do right now, it's always right to be careful. ”

Ding Mu instructed Qin Gang and the others a few words, then left the arranged residence with Uncle Fu and went to the village in Zhang Erleng.

Along the way, he met some local villagers, many of whom looked sideways, and Zhang Erleng wanted to explain. When they heard that Ding Mu was going to worship the god of the sea, these people immediately had some good feelings.

After a short walk, I saw a quaint small temple, there were villagers at the door, Zhang Erleng's name was Erleng, in fact, his eloquence was not bad, and he explained the terroir to Ding Mu all the way, boasting about how the sea god worked. It is said that whoever went to sea for three days did not return, because of the guidance of the sea god, and finally did not die in the belly of the fish. Whoever was blessed by the god of the sea, and the old age was full of children.

Ding Mu naturally didn't believe it, there were strange powers in this world, but even if there were really gods, how could they care about so many small things for believers.

In such a small place, not even the grace of God will descend.

Entering the temple, Ding Mu just felt that his whole body was a little mysterious, and he was naturally infected by the atmosphere.

This hall is also simple, there is a lot of incense burning smell, but the enshrinement is a two-zhang high stone statue, it seems to be some age, even the facial features have lost the original stone color, become a little gray.

Ding Mu was only stunned, but Zhang Erleng took three incense sticks, lit them and handed them to Ding Mudao: "Mu Gongzi, since you have entered the gate of this temple, let me wait and worship." ”

Ding Mu naturally knew the process of ordinary believers, took three incense sticks, lined up among the villagers, inserted the incense into the incense burner, bowed down again, and then turned around to join the team of kneeling to pray for blessings.

There were two rows of kneeling on the ground, neither of them spoke, only muttered something in their mouths, and began to kowtow again after speaking.

Since he came, he naturally had to pretend, and Ding Mu also learned to kowtow to the ground.

After doing this three times, Ding Mu felt that it was almost the same, and he was about to get up, when he suddenly buzzed in his head.

When he looked at it, something strange happened to Ding Mu.

I saw that although the hall was full of smoke at this time, it was not real, but Ding Mu clearly saw that there seemed to be a thin white mist thread above everyone's head, which was connected to the statue, and slowly disappeared into the center of the statue's eyebrows, and disappeared.

Even the top of the head.

In the entire hall, except for Uncle Fu and himself, everyone else had a little bit.

Ding Mu's heart shook tremblingly, and three progress bars appeared in his soul at this time.

"Refining 85%. Will 3%. ”

At the end, the progress bar prompted: "The special energy of this world, the power of faith, can be forcibly stolen and converted into storage!"

Seeing this, Ding Mu was overjoyed.

This is good!

"Convert!"

As soon as his mind moved, Ding Mu found that the threads of white mist were slowly surging towards him.

"This is the power of faith?"

After a stick of incense, he didn't get up yet, which made Zhang Erleng secretly admire, this son is really different, so decent.

How did he know that Ding Mu was absorbing the power of this faith, and he wanted to see the limit.

It was a stick of incense, and there were only about 20 people, and the power of faith generated actually made the third progress bar reach the level of 1%.

Zhang Erleng saw Ding Mu get up, it was because he could no longer absorb the transformation, and this transformation ability had a limit.

"I can only complete one percent of the progress at a time, and my body and soul can't bear it, and it seems that I have to improve my strength. ”

Ding Mu muttered to himself and left the Sea Lot, his spirit seemed to be extremely tired at the moment, but his face was full of joyful smiles.

Zhang Erleng had his own things to do, and after leading Ding Mu to his residence, he left on his own.

Ding Mu ate something, thinking that he could practice Jiangxing again when he was full, but he didn't want to suddenly fall asleep.

"Maybe it's just the power of faith that has just been transformed, and the spirit is a little tired, so let's take a rest first. ”

Thinking of this, he simply lay down and fell asleep, and in less than a few breaths, he fell asleep.

In a haze, Ding Mu felt that he was not asleep again, and when he sensed it carefully, he actually came to a certain space.

As far as the eye can see, the space is dark, but when you look at your feet, there is solid ground.

"I'm dreaming?"

In a haze, Ding Mu noticed that there was a point of light in front of him, so he strode forward.

In fact, it was only a short distance, and when I got closer, I realized that it was a square in the dark, and the square was empty, with only three huge pillars, vaguely transparent, and I didn't know what material it was.

When Ding Mu wanted to touch the pillar, he suddenly felt dizzy, and he felt like he was in endless darkness.

This time I really fell asleep.
