Reincarnation space, but the style is wrong

Chapter 69: The Golden Throne, Suppressing the Spirit World

Outside Lanruo Temple, three figures in Taoist robes walked out of the darkness silently.

They looked at each other, and finally an old Taoist priest with corpse spots on his face said, "The degree of weirdness we have become has deepened, and we have even gradually adapted to the increasingly weird world."

"This is not a good thing. Are you two Taoist friends here to seek help from Lord Ning Xiu?" The head of Kunlun said with difficulty, his face as dead as a tree.

“That’s right,” said Zhang Tianshi, whose body was decaying and emitting a faint stench. “If we delay any longer, until our minds are completely annihilated, we will become completely weird.”

The scene fell silent again. The three looked towards Lanruo Temple, expecting that the people inside must have noticed their arrival long ago.

Sure enough, after a while, footsteps were heard in the temple, and then the temple door was opened, and Chen Xingzhi's face poked out from inside.

As soon as they met, he guessed the reason why the three of them came here and asked directly:

"You can't hold on any longer?"

"That's right," the old Taoist nodded, "If we delay this any longer, there will be three more terrifying monsters in this world sooner or later."

Zhang Tianshi took over his words and said, "We have no way to survive, so why not end it now?"

After listening to this, Chen Xingzhi smiled meaningfully, "Maybe things are not that pessimistic. Maybe you don't have to die?"

The three of them knew that Chen Xingzhi's words were usually not groundless, which also aroused their interest.

"Fellow Taoist, why don't you just speak frankly and see what you want us to do." said the old Taoist priest.

Chen Xingzhi motioned the three to follow him into Lanruo Temple, and introduced to them as they walked: "Ning Xiu has basically completed the transformation of the 'Spiritual World Stabilization Device'. Although I don't understand his process, he said it can be used."

"Once the device is activated, the weirdness of your body may no longer continue."

After hearing what he said, the three of them saw a glimmer of hope to survive and nodded repeatedly.

As the saying goes, it is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. If they could survive, the three of them would not want to commit suicide.

They followed Chen Xingzhi's footsteps and walked along the long passage to an open space under Lanruo Temple.

As soon as they walked in, they saw that the venue was actually a magnificent hall with a huge golden throne standing in the middle.

"Is this a spiritual world stabilization device?" The head of Kunlun had a wooden face and raised his hand to point at the huge throne.

"No," Chen Xingzhi shook his head, "That is the energy supply system. The real device is below."

Energy supply system?

The three of them looked carefully and saw that the throne was covered with densely packed tiny lines. They immediately realized that this was a device used to extract some kind of energy.

As for who would be the person drawn, the three of them had the answer in an instant.

There is only one person who has enough energy for him to draw from, and that is Ning Xiu, who represents the human side.

"Master Ning Xiu, have you made your decision?" asked the old Taoist priest.

"It's decided. I built this palace according to his preferences," Chen Xingzhi said half-jokingly. "At that time, he also asked me to build it in a grander style so that he could experience the feeling of being an emperor."

After hearing this, the three fell silent again.

They undoubtedly admired Ning Xiu.

However, they still have a problem. The human race is now barely surviving, and humanity will inevitably be affected and weakened. Can He now afford the energy needed to suppress the spiritual world?

They expressed their concerns truthfully, to which Chen Xingzhi responded:
"It is true that humanity cannot afford this energy consumption, but as long as the human race still exists, humanity can sustain it."

"Besides, we have another source of energy, and that is Shinto. I will arrange this."

The three of them immediately understood what he meant. He simply wanted to take advantage of the faith and incense.

But in addition to this, they had another question, which was what they needed to do during this process. Before they could ask, Chen Xingzhi took the lead and said:

"After the device is activated, humanity will take action to sink this palace into the crack outside the material world to prevent it from being destroyed. But in order to prevent certain accidents from happening, He needs trustworthy people to guard it."

"Don't worry about the life span. Humanity will take action to solve it. What do you think?"

This request would undoubtedly deprive them of their freedom and force them to live in this palace forever.

The three of them looked at each other and made a decision immediately.

"We have no choice, do we?" said the old Taoist priest.

Chen Xingzhi smiled noncommittally and did not answer. He just waited there with them.

Soon, a familiar figure came towards me.

The old Taoist squinted his eyes and almost didn't recognize that it was Ning Xiu.

Now he is tall and straight, with a face as firm as a knife, and he exudes the brilliance of divinity and humanity.

"Master Ning Xiu? How did you become like this?" the old Taoist couldn't help but ask.

Ning Xiu said calmly: "It's nothing, just some side effects of Shinto belief."

Then he looked at Chen Xingzhi and said, "I can no longer maintain my balance. The power of weirdness, divine nature, and humanity is becoming unbalanced. I will activate the device before my humanity completely disappears."

After saying that, he quickly walked into the palace, sat on the throne, closed his eyes, and quietly waited for the final moment to arrive.

The memories of just a few months flashed through his mind, finally freezing at the moment he opened his eyes for the first time.

At that time, his mind was not mature yet, he didn't know his true identity, and he didn't have the pressure he has now.

Chen Xingzhi took one last look at the figure on the throne, took a step forward, walked into the passage, and quietly stared at the palace in the underground venue.

The complex device located under the palace gradually started up, the patterns on the throne lit up, and the energy from Ning Xiu's body was extracted and supplied to the device.

In the blink of an eye, the figure on the throne turned into a dried corpse. Then the entire venue trembled slightly, and then disappeared as if it had been wiped out out of thin air.

In the crack outside the world, in the dead city, Chen Xingzhi's soul suddenly caught a peculiar energy fluctuation.

This energy wave emanated from somewhere in the gap and quickly radiated to the entire material world and the spiritual world.

The scars on the surface of the material world are healed, and rules from the spiritual world can no longer enter it.

The spiritual world was also suppressed, calmed down, and isolated from the material world.

"It seems that Ning Xiu succeeded, but I don't know how long this situation can last. And why haven't I completed my hidden mission yet? Do I have to wait until the situation is completely stabilized?"

The branches of the Corrupted Tree of Life swayed slightly. Chen Xingzhi assessed the situation in the human world and made a decision.

The weirdness that already exists in the human world has been weakened, but it is still a threat and needs to be dealt with.

The belief in Ning Xiu must also be popularized among the human race so that Ning Xiu can hold on to the throne longer.

In addition, he also has to reap one last harvest before his return.

This time, he planned to attack the spiritual world.

In the human world, the remaining insect swarms took action and worked closely with the ghost controllers to capture or seal each monster.

At the same time, a sect based on Ning Xiu's faith arose among the human race, and many people "spontaneously" accepted this belief.

After paying a huge amount of sacrifices, the human race in this world finally breathed a sigh of relief and entered a new era.
