I wield power with my innate talents, and forge the Heavenly Court.

Chapter 491 Divine Position Condensation, Conferring of Godhood

After everyone finished their sacrifice and stood up, they looked at the statue of the Earth God again.

Whether it's a misperception or not, people feel that the current statue of the local earth god has gained a touch of mystique.

They exchanged a glance, then looked again at the seemingly different land god statue, and felt somewhat at ease.

After taking a deep look at the statue of the land god, the village chief waved his hand, dismissing everyone to go about their own business.

Amidst the hustle and bustle, people whispered among themselves and left in twos and threes.

As for going about your own business...
Most of them just go home and stay with their families.

Given the current situation, how could they possibly be in the mood to go to work?
Even after returning home, they would secretly pray that this so-called local deity was real and could truly protect their village.

Watching the departing crowd, the old village chief let out a barely perceptible sigh.

It would be abnormal if he had no doubts about that so-called local deity.

Or rather, apart from the innocent young children, 99% of the people in the village harbored deep doubts.

However, as I said before, they have no other choice but to try anything as a last resort.

Regardless of whether this land god is real or an evil god, they must hold on tightly now.

As for the matter of the old village chief committing suicide and becoming an ancestral spirit...
It wasn't that he gave up, but that he had no choice but to give up.

If this so-called local deity is real, he has no reason to do this.

If this local deity is fake.
Therefore, the creature capable of sending messages to the entire village in dreams must be a powerful ghost, or even an evil god.

Such beings, let alone newly established ancestral spirits, even ordinary guardian deities would only perish when facing them.

So what can they do?
If one were to ignore the dream of the local earth god and insist on holding an ancestral spirit sacrifice to conceive the ancestral spirit, one might inadvertently anger the earth god.

Before they could complete the ancestral spirit sacrifice, they were slaughtered by the enraged local earth god.

Therefore, they can only follow the guidance of their dreams and build temples and establish shrines for the local earth god.

As for the final outcome, given the complete dissipation of the ancestral spirits in their village, how much worse could it get?

After glancing at the statue of the local earth god one last time, the old village chief slowly knelt down and whispered a prayer.

".Fude Zhengshen Tudigong (Earth God of Fortune)"
"God above, please bless our village!"

Unbeknownst to everyone, Wang Chao stood before the local earth god temple, watching the old village chief kneeling in prayer, and the twinkling starlight pouring in from all over the village, a smile appearing on his face.

Well, that dream message from the land god was naturally the work of the dynasty.

Since this world has ancestral spirits and deities, he might as well bring over the Heavenly Court's pantheon.

Well, you could also say that it's like bringing over the Chinese pantheon.

Compared to the legendary Heavenly Court of the past, the current Heavenly Dynasty is no less powerful.

Moreover, the Celestial Empire itself also had local deities such as the Earth God, City God, River God, Mountain God, and even heavenly soldiers and generals.

To be honest, the current Celestial Empire is essentially a celestial pantheon.

Previously, the dynasty had never considered changing the name of the Celestial Dynasty to the Heavenly Court.

Today, the Celestial Empire has everything imaginable, including the realms of immortals and the underworld, heavenly soldiers and generals, local deities and city gods, ghost messengers and underworld soldiers.

Isn't this just like the legendary Heavenly Court?

It's just that the more detailed system, promotion model, and so on are slightly different from the legendary Heavenly Court.

But who says the Heavenly Court must have looked exactly like the legends of the past?
His dynasty's Celestial Empire was a unique celestial court, revered by all realms.

Without even needing any changes, the dynasty could directly utilize everything from the Celestial Empire in this world.

Land Gods, City Gods, Mountain Gods, River Gods, Wind, Rain, Thunder, Lightning, Star Lords, Star Gods, as well as feudal lords, human emperors, emperors, and so on.

Well, if it's just one world, the strongest person who governs everything in that world should be the Heavenly Emperor.

However, even if this world is completely transformed by the dynasty, it will be completely brought under the rule of the Celestial Empire.

Naturally, it must follow the system of the Celestial Empire.

Under the rule of the Celestial Empire system, it is naturally impossible for any existence such as a Celestial Emperor to be allowed.

Those who rule over a region of the world are the feudal lords, the kings of the kingdoms, the emperors of the royal-level great worlds, and the emperors of the anticipated imperial-level great worlds.

However, this is just a name.

In essence, within their respective worlds, the authority and power they possess are no different from those of the Heavenly Emperor in mythology.

However, as they were part of the dynastic system, even if they were not directly under the Celestial Empire, it was impossible for them to call themselves the Celestial Emperor.

If anyone can be called the Heavenly Emperor, it is only the Emperor of the Heavenly Dynasty, which is the current dynasty.

It was precisely because of the current situation of the Celestial Empire and after understanding the situation of this world that the dynasty felt compelled to carry out the investiture of gods in this world.

The Celestial Empire is the Heavenly Court, which reigns supreme over all things.

Of course, for a long time to come, the Celestial Empire and the Heavenly Court will exist as a beautiful place in the hearts of all people, and will not actually be revealed to the world.

After all, with the power of that immortal world radiating outwards, the dynasty couldn't possibly project the power of the Celestial Empire over there too early, lest it attract the attention of that immortal world.

Bringing his thoughts back, Wang Chao looked at the statue of the Earth God.

As the spirituality of the villagers of Black Stone Village continued to converge, the divine status finally evolved completely.

Yes, the points of light that emerge from the convergence of everyone's spirit and spirituality are the prototypes of celestial status.

Or rather, in this world, to conform to its rules, it can temporarily be called a divine position. "Buzz~!"

The point of light trembled slightly, and after another violent contraction and expansion, it suddenly burst forth with a burst of intense light, rapidly twisting and changing, and finally transformed into a card.

"The positions of the gods of heaven and earth: the positions of the gods of fortune and earth (Black Stone Village)"
Supernatural Powers: To wield the power of heaven and earth within the territory of Ye Family Village, to regulate the earth's veins, balance yin and yang, uphold righteousness and ward off evil, and reward good and punish evil.

The Earth God is the lowest-ranking deity in the Heavenly Court and Underworld system.

However, the power it possesses within its territory is far more comprehensive and powerful than one could imagine.

Well, that might be a characteristic of many Chinese deities.

The clergy is very comprehensive
When people go to temples to worship gods, they ask for all sorts of things and have all kinds of wishes.

Just like the most widely known Guanyin Bodhisattva, she truly has all sorts of duties.

A sincere and clear-minded Guanyin with a pure vase;
The compassionate and benevolent Guanyin with willow branches;
Horse-headed Guanyin, who vanquishes demons and saves all beings from suffering;

The Thousand-Armed and Thousand-Eyed Guanyin, who surveys all realms and relieves suffering;

There are also Guanyin statues that can grant children, and so on.

It can be described as truly all-around capable.

For example, Guan Gong, also has many divine duties.

The most famous one is probably Guan Sheng Di Jun.

In addition, there is the Three Realms Demon-Subduing Emperor, whose divine might shakes the heavens, who vanquishes demons and monsters.

Lord Guan, the God of War, represents loyalty and righteousness;

He is also the God of Literature, the God of Wealth, and so on.

Furthermore, it is also a guardian deity in Buddhism who protects the safety of temples.

And the land, within its own territory, also possesses incredibly powerful and all-encompassing authority.

The most crucial element is probably fertile land, which ensures a bountiful harvest.

However, in addition to these, it also has the ability to protect the home and ward off evil spirits.

Besides, it's perfectly normal for people to pray to the local earth god for safety when they go out or take exams.

They completely disregard whether the local earth god can even govern other places.

Furthermore, people also go to the local earth god to pray for children or for success in their careers.

When someone dies in the village, sometimes the land deity will guide them to the City God Temple and into the underworld.

In short, the land god's authority over the area was very broad; anything that happened in the village fell within his jurisdiction.

Such special circumstances are enough to allow it to make a good start in today's world and gather more faith and incense.

Moreover, the moment the divine position was created, it began to spread out with mysterious and radiant waves.

"Om~!"

In an instant, the world fell silent as an invisible will descended, watching the divine throne with restless intent.

Wang Chao looked up at the sky, his smile widening.

Indeed, the evolution of divine positions is in line with the rules of this world.

Now, as long as the final deification is carried out, he will surely receive a reward from the world's will, allowing his development in this world to be even smoother.

but
Wang Chao reached out and grasped the divine tablet, but then hesitated slightly.

For him, becoming a deity was easy.

After all, in China, the status of a celestial being is a standard requirement for everyone, regardless of whether you are good or bad, or whether you have made any achievements.

However, while bestowing divine titles is easy, to whom should he bestow these divine positions?

Is it the native inhabitants of this world, or is it drawing the consciousness of the powerful beings of the Celestial Empire to descend?
After pondering for a while, Wang Chao finally looked at the old village chief.

Since he's just starting out in this world, it would be more prudent for him to bestow titles upon the natives of this world.

To avoid attracting the attention of the will of the immortal world, which would inevitably cause a lot of trouble even if he was not afraid.

Once he had made up his mind, Wang Chao immediately stopped hesitating. With a flick of his wrist, he tossed the divine card in his hand toward the old village chief.

The old village chief, who was kneeling and praying, suddenly felt a jolt in his brain, as if he had been hit by a giant hammer, and his whole body was dizzy.

When he came to his senses, he found himself in another world.

The shimmering light flowed and countless images rose and fell, representing his life's experiences.

At the same time, there was a card radiating divine light in front of him.

"This is."

The old village chief looked around, finally focusing his gaze on the card, filled with doubt.

I don't know where I am. Why am I here? And what is this card in front of me?
As he pondered this, the light emanating from the card suddenly fluctuated slightly, and a message flowed into the old village chief's mind.

"Consciousness Space. The Divine Positions of Heaven and Earth, the Earth God of Black Stone Village"

Gradually, a look of realization appeared on the old village chief's face, and he understood the cause and effect of everything.
