After forty or fifty years spent in the world of Journey to the West, the real world has only gone through four or five years, but these four or five years are enough to change dramatically.

Chen Ming stepped on the clouds and mist and rose into the air, looking down on the entire land of East China. I was shocked that the real world had changed so much in the years I had been away.

In the past, Longtan Lake was all dilapidated earthen houses, and there were even thatched houses. Now all of them have disappeared, replaced by new buildings, various styles, and a bustling scene on the street. Over the years, what has happened to Longtan Lake has changed so much.

In a trance, Chen Ming saw a village in the middle of Longtan Lake, although it was no different from other places, but there was a huge power of incense floating above him, all of which were golden red. Normal incense is all cyan, but the golden red color of the power of incense in this village is enough to see the luxuriance of the incense here.

Chen Ming, as the god of water in East China, survives by absorbing incense, and these incense are naturally concrete in Chen Ming's eyes and can be easily seen.

At present, in this piece of East China, the incense power everywhere can be clearly seen. And they all flew towards Chen Ming.

Among the many areas, Longtan Lake has the most incense. Chen Ming couldn't help but feel relieved in his heart, his idol was still quite useful.

"After so many years, people still believe in the god of water."

Being worshiped by many people, Chen Ming was naturally happy in his heart. If you want to compare the Journey to the West world and the real world, Chen Ming naturally prefers the real world, after all, he was in the real world from the beginning, and his idol also survives by the power of incense offered by people in the world, and the power of humanity is also indispensable. These are the foundations of one's own cultivation as a divine soul, and nothing can go wrong.

When I first started to stay in the Journey to the West World for forty or fifty years, I was always worried about whether people in the real world would no longer worship their idols after not going back for so many years. Without the power of incense and the power of humanity, it will be difficult for one's own divine soul to break through. Now I found that the incense in the temple not only did not decrease, but became more vigorous, and the big stone in my heart finally fell to the ground. The foundation has been solidified, and other problems are no longer enough to worry Chen Ming.

Just standing on this cloud, Chen Ming could feel the power of incense from everywhere in the entire region of East China, and those low voices of sincere prayer kept appearing in his mind.

No matter how long it has passed, there will be no shortage of people who sincerely pray, and it is inevitable that there will be things that can be sought but difficult to achieve in mortal life. At such times, people try to pray to the gods for the fulfillment of their hearts.

Of course, the gods cannot just blindly accept the power of people's prayers and incense, but also need to fulfill the wishes of mortals. If you only take and don't give, then the incense offered to yourself will become less and less, and your own strength will gradually weaken.

In order to ensure that the incense burns continuously, the gods will do their best to fulfill people's wishes. Sometimes they will suddenly appear to bless people, and mortals will pray more sincerely after seeing it.

For example, the legend of the Buddha and Guanyin Bodhisattva has long been a household name, and the belief in the gods has become stronger. Since ancient times, the incense is also endless, and it is also the most idol of these two immortal temples, so why is the strength of the Buddha and Guanyin Bodhisattva so profound, and the immortal energy around the body is constantly surrounded.

Chen Ming, as the god of water, is not as old as them. Although the incense offered every year is also vigorous, after all, people feel that this is not a great god like Kannon Bodhisattva, so naturally they will not pray for something that is difficult to accomplish.

Moreover, living here in Qinglong Pond, surrounded by water, it is very likely to have a major flood during the rainstorm season. Most of the people also pray for the safety of their families and a good harvest.

These small wishes, which are easy to complete, do not need to be fulfilled by Chen Ming himself. Even in the Journey to the West, if you leave those gods to worship in the real world, the gods will automatically fulfill the prayers of those people.

Chen Ming would also visit the temples where the incense was most vigorous, and the more sincere the people's prayers, Chen Ming would attach a little of his spirit to the statue to fulfill the prayers of the locals.

This inevitably reminded Chen Ming of the dragon totem, and the dragon totem he happened to create at the beginning was also like this.

Because he has been busy with various things in the Journey to the West world, in addition to the automatic vows of the gods every time, Chen Ming has not given people manifestations, blessings or anything like that. But to this day, the power of incense is also endless. Feeling the strength of his own strength now, Chen Ming thought in his heart that in the Journey to the West, he would surrender the Monkey King and receive the emperor's reward. Coupled with the power of incense accumulated over the years, it is already easy to ascend to the god karma position of the god of water in East China.

Since he already had such a plan in his heart, Chen Ming thought that it should be completed immediately. He is now the god of water in East China, and if he continues, the area under his control will be expanded to the entire Shenzhou, and his temple statues will also be all over the entire Shenzhou. At that time, in such a vast territory, thousands of people would be able to offer incense to themselves, and their souls and cultivation would be immeasurable.

After you fully understand the changes in the real world and grasp the situation of incense offerings in various places, you will start to plan the next step.

In order to accomplish this goal, it is not possible to rely on the power of incense alone, but also needs the help of humane power, so that it can be foolproof and can reach the goal as soon as possible.

The same is true of the dragon totem that Chen Ming made by mistake, which has been transformed from a personal dragon totem into a symbol belonging to the country. And now it is also because he is only the god of water in East China, and has not developed to the whole country and has not been recognized by the country. But fortunately, there are many people in East China, and the incense offerings are also considerable.

"If I can become the god of water in the entire Shenzhou, then my temple statues will also be all over the Shenzhou. But to accomplish this goal, it is most important to first get the approval of the country, which can also ensure that I can complete it in the shortest possible time. ”

This time I came to the real world, and I have completed the breakthrough of the divine soul. But when he encounters this kind of opportunity, he can expand his influence to the entire Shenzhou, and at that time, it will be greatly beneficial to both the breakthrough of his divine soul and the growth of his cultivation.

Chen Ming decided to accomplish this goal before returning to Journey to the West. Promoted to the god of water in the entire Shenzhou.
