From the Carp that Brings Children to the Celestial Officials

Chapter 27: Establishing a Mansion and Building a Temple (Please Read)

At night, the little carp was about to go to sleep, but was awakened by a series of heavy footsteps.

He flashed and left the cold pond immediately, but saw a group of monsters that were two meters tall, with green faces and fangs, walking slowly in groups in the heavy fog.

"So it's the Indigo Slave. How did you get into my temple? I didn't apply for temple repairs."

You Ming felt surprised, but suddenly a three-foot-tall little man jumped out from among the group of monsters. He was wearing a black robe and had a tile-like decoration on his head. He jumped nimbly on the heads of the monsters.

"The craftsman, the tile clerk, numbered Jiachen 354, pays homage to the Supreme God."

"In accordance with the will of the City God, since you have been promoted to the ninth rank, you are eligible to have a branch temple built within the Bixia Yuanjun Niangniang Temple and enjoy sacrifices. Therefore, he ordered us to build a temple for you overnight."

The little tile clerk said loudly.

You Ming's eyes suddenly widened. "Is there such a good thing?" There are a lot of people of the ninth rank in Changning County, but only a few are qualified to build a temple to worship them.

Even ordinary eighth-rank deities without temples have gods there.

After the tile official finished speaking, he directed this group of monster indigo slaves to start working.

Although these monsters look sturdy and clumsy, they are all good workers. They are very strong and can easily lift beams weighing thousands of pounds. Their workmanship is particularly delicate. Even with a thick axe, they can carve out delicate patterns.

It was for this reason that Shintoism raised them and named them "Indigo Slaves", specializing in doing rough work such as building temples, clearing rivers, and repairing roads.

It is similar to the strong men of Taoism.

For a moment, the entire Temple of the Goddess of Childbirth was filled with flying dust, but a layer of faint spiritual light covered the entire main hall, preventing dust from the outside world from falling into it and colliding with Bixia Yuanjun.

The indigo slaves worked swiftly and soon the structure of the side temple was completed. The walls were built with blue bricks, the roof was covered with red tiles, there was a step every three steps in front of the door, red ropes were hung on the roof ridge, and silver bells hung from the eaves, often ringing in the wind.

There is no statue of the god in the temple, only a tablet with the words "Yuanlingshan Xitaishi" written on it.

The temple door is half-open, with small notes on both sides saying "The fetal god is here, mortals please do not disturb"; there is also a tripod and a furnace, which is neither extravagant nor vulgar.

The moment the small temple was built, the void seemed to expand outward along a point in an instant, with layers of ripples rippling, and then an illusory space emerged.

In just a moment, that space expanded outward and was actually larger than the entire Yuanling Mountain.

Then, at the junction of reality and the underworld, a temple emerged, half light and half shadow, like the scene at dawn, but vaguely symbolizing the ignorant state of "the fetus has not yet been born and the soul has not yet settled."

The temple is nine zhang and six chi high, with a three-tiered roof covered with flying tiles. Five-colored flags and red ropes with hundreds of knots are hung on the eaves.

The three characters "Yinming Hall" are engraved on the main hall, their brushstrokes resembling dragons and snakes in water, evoking a sense of spirituality. In front of the temple is a cold pond, reflecting countless figures of fetuses in the spring, creating a shimmering ripple.

I have to say, Tian Guan Xian is really good.

Although the little carp is only the lowest-level god, he is a legitimate descendant of the heavenly court and is merely seconded to the human world.

Therefore, the temple he built in the underworld was also extremely magnificent.

……

"Woohoo, that feels so good!"

As the little carp entered the temple of the underworld, its form suddenly changed, transforming into a boy of four or five years old. His skin was fair and delicate, with only a few scales covering his forehead and cheeks. He wore a green official robe, which, because he was so short, dragged on the ground.

This is not because he can transform, but because this is his "divine realm". In this place, his Yin Spirit will manifest independently.

Because he was too young in this life, he appeared as a boy.

You Ming ran around excitedly throughout the temple hall. He had worked hard for so many years in his previous life but still couldn't afford to buy a house. Now such a big house belonged to him. You can imagine how happy he was.

Compared to the cold pond where I lived before, this is a life like a god.

He was tired from running, so he lay on his back on the cold floor of the hall, but his heart was burning.

But now that you have a big house, you can't just sit back and relax.

He was still thinking about truly transforming and becoming a human again.

Now that I've been promoted and my level has improved, I have to replan my future.

First of all, he was promoted to the ninth rank Xitaishi. No matter how big or small the official position is, since he has built a temple and opened a government, it means that he can form his own team and he has to recruit some subordinates in the near future.

Secondly, he has already broken through to the Xuan Guang realm. It is not realistic to further improve his realm in the short term, but he needs to master the method of using Xuan Guang as soon as possible. He must quickly plant the seed of the magical power [She Yao Gui Yuan] bestowed by the Golden Boy God, hoping to master this magical power quickly.

Thinking of this, You Ming turned his attention to the magical seed in his mind.

Magical powers are different from spells.

Magic is an external force that relies on spiritual power, mantras, and tools, while supernatural powers are internal methods that come from the understanding of the origin or the awakening of divinity.

For example, after he swallowed the blood of the [Golden Spirit Carp] that day, he gained a small magical power called [Gold and Water Mutual Generation], which is similar to a passive skill. It can add the sharp edge of gold to his water-based magic and add a lot of power.

However, with You Ming's aptitude, it is impossible for him to comprehend the magical power of the level of [She Yao Gui Yuan], and even many masters of the third level cannot possess it.

In order to improve the strength of their descendants, some great figures will condense their own magical powers into a magical seed, which will be cultivated and grown in the bodies of their descendants, allowing those with less strength to also comprehend high-level magical powers.

The Golden Boy God was greedy because he had too many treasures, while You Ming was greedy because he was too ignorant. If outsiders knew that a mere lower-level god in the mortal world had a seed of magical power, who knows how much they would covet.

You Ming calmed down and concentrated his mind, and the star-like seed in his mind slowly floated up.

He sunk the Yao seed into the center of his eyebrows, and saw that in the spiritual platform, a dark mass gradually began to glow, as if the root of light had just sprouted and was trembling quietly.

The fine light continued to spread out towards the depths of his mind, but it was like fine roots taking root in his brain.

You Ming's aptitude is not high, and his comprehension is even lower, so his mind is often filled with drowsiness.

But as the light bloomed, the haze in his mind faded away little by little, making his brain clear. Many problems that he had been unable to understand in the past now became much clearer.

After obtaining this magical power seed, the Golden Child God Lord did not study it carefully, and only thought it was a magical power that could drive the brilliance of heaven and earth. Little did he know that this was not a killing type of magical power, but a supporting type of magical power.
