Chapter 319 The Emperor Rules the Divine Dynasty, Divine Authority Must Be Granted by the Emperor
The world of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio is actually a world with extremely rich resources.

The concentration of spiritual energy has reached a level where demons and ghosts can appear, so you can fill your stomach by growing anything.

The only problem is that the lives of the people are not guaranteed due to the presence of evil spirits and ghosts. They live in fear day and night and are in a state of constant anxiety.

If the imperial court has the ability to protect a certain area, it will naturally gain the heartfelt support of the local people.

But the Ming Dynasty had already decayed, with demons and monsters rampant everywhere. Now the central institutions had been completely devoured by the thousand-year-old demon Pudu Cihang, and the country's fortune had also been plundered, which was almost equivalent to the destruction of the country.

This really saved Cao Jie a lot of trouble.

Now Cao Jie has led a group of brothers to Kyoto and taken over the chaotic court.

They all had relevant experience and were extremely powerful, so they quickly stabilized Kyoto.

At Caishikou, Wu Yong was giving a speech earnestly.

"When the Great Wei arrives, the world will be at peace! When the Great Wei arrives, there will be a bright future!"

"Look...what is this?"

Wu Yong pointed at the "Jade Kylin" that served as the background wall and said, "This is a Kylin. It is one of the auspicious animals! The birth of a Kylin means that Heaven will bring prosperity to the Wei Dynasty!"

"The unicorn steps on the auspicious clouds, and all the troubles in the world disappear."

He gave Lu Junyi a wink, and the three greatest talents of Hebei immediately commanded his soul to show off in the sky.

In fact, the people are very easy to be deceived. Pu Du Ci Hang pretended to be the Buddha and became a living Buddha of the time. Lu Junyi, the "Qilin stepping on auspicious clouds", also fooled the people in the city and made them crazy.

The Kyoto City God Temple was even more popular than the previous Pu Du Ci Hang Demon Temple.

"Red-haired Ghost" Liu Tang displayed his magical powers many times in Tongzhou and protected the people there.

Now he has been promoted to the City God of the Capital and has become the god of the Wei Dynasty. As the people spread the word, tens of thousands of people have come to burn incense on their own initiative.

Cao Jie is still exploring the question of how to confer honor upon ghosts and gods.

The gods achieve enlightenment through incense and fire, and incense and fire are the way to becoming gods.

Of course, even without the canonization of the Divine Dynasty, the gods and ghosts of Taoism, Buddhism, and any small rural temple can achieve enlightenment through incense.

But wild gods are of no benefit to the country, let alone the emperor. They waste the incense and energy that should belong to the court and practice only for their own selfish reasons. If the temple is destroyed, the god will die.

Only the righteous gods enthroned by the Divine Dynasty can rest and thrive with the country.

Before, the Red-haired Ghost seized the position of the City God of Tongzhou and became a wild god of the Ming Dynasty. Although he had magical powers, he was like a rootless duckweed and could hardly make any progress.

If the temple were demolished, the magical powers he possessed would instantly disappear.

As the saying goes, "The emperor rules the divine dynasty, and divine power must be granted by the emperor." This kind of great supernatural power that is conferred by the divine dynasty cannot be comprehended or mastered in a day or two, or even a few months.

But Liu Tang was one of the five ghosts refined by Cao Jie. He was promoted to the City God of the capital of Wei, and the incense he condensed was equivalent to Cao Jie's incense.

By doing so, we can analyze the secrets of being ordained by the Divine Dynasty and becoming a god through incense.

In front of the bridge between the two worlds, Cao Jie separated his spirit and soul and took control of Zuo Qianhu's body.

The swordsmanship and martial arts mastered by the previous clone were all integrated into the original body.

"With Zuo Qianhu's body to help me practice, I will become a Pure Yang Martial Saint sooner or later."

"I don't need to waste my real body on martial arts anymore. Next, I will focus on studying the Divine Dynasty. In a world where ghosts and monsters are rampant, it won't work without the City God of the Underworld to protect the place."

"The Ming Dynasty's research on the underworld was only superficial, so when the wise rulers of previous generations died, the city gods in various places were in chaos."

"I want to be the true emperor of the Divine Dynasty!" At this time, Gongsun Sheng and Wu Song came together.

"How is it? What is the attitude of those cultivators towards our arrival?"

Gongsun Sheng smiled and said, "Elder Zhizhen killed the thousand-year-old centipede monster, which shocked the practitioners in this world. They dare not say much."

"For the time being, their interests have not been affected, so they dare not take action. Find out their origins and don't be careless."

"Brother, in this world, there are three main orthodox Taoist sects: one is the Shu Mountain outside the sky; one is the Kunlun Mountain outside the world; and one is the Laoshan Mountain outside the sea. Shushan focuses on sword training; Kunlun is good at strange spells; and Laoshan focuses on talismans. Outside the three mountains, there are other Taoist sects, but they are not well-known."

"As for Buddhism, there is a Jinshan Temple in the south, which has great supernatural powers."

"Among the practitioners coming to Kyoto this time, there is a practitioner from Kunlun Mountain named Zhiqiu Yiye. Would you like to meet him, brother?"

Cao Jie shook his head: "I need to practice the magical power of Fengzheng in seclusion. You can make your own decisions on the specific matters of this world. Be polite first and then use force. If you are blind, just beat and kill."

"Yes!"

…………

In the Water Margin plane, a new City God Temple was built in Kaifeng Prefecture.

This temple is not built magnificently, but it is extremely majestic. There is a huge incense burner in the temple, and the incense in the burner is very strong.

Behind the incense burner, there were three huge guillotines, one with a dog's head, one with a tiger's head, and one with a dragon's head!
This is exactly what Bao Zheng used when he was the magistrate of Kaifeng Prefecture.

After this temple was built, all of Tokyo's one million people came to burn incense.

The statue of Bao Zheng is created according to his original appearance, with him wearing a black official hat, a vermilion official robe with a flying python pattern, and pink boots. He has a dark complexion and a solemn expression. He is carved so vividly that he seems to be alive.

On both sides of the City God statue are Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, Wang Chao, Ma Han, as well as Gongsun Ce and Zhan Zhao, one civil and one military.

At the entrance of the temple, there are couplets engraved on both sides, which read: "Public integrity is recorded in books and manuscripts for thousands of years, and the people call for justice when the music is played." The banner reads: "Impartial and impartial."

Based on the power of incense provided by the red-haired ghost, Cao Jie tried out the power of sealing.

Suddenly, the people worshipping in the temple seemed to freeze in space. A ripple like water spread out, and a middle-aged, dark-faced man in a vermilion official uniform was standing in the hall with his hands clasped.

"Kaifeng City God Bao, welcome the emperor!"

"My dear, please stand up!"

This City God Bao is said to be Bao Zheng, but in fact he is not Bao Zheng.

Lao Bao has been dead for more than 60 years. How can Cao Jie find his three souls of heaven, earth and man?

As for why the person can be sanctified, it is because the human soul wanders between tombs. This City God package is based on the human soul and sanctifies the City God.

He should have been in a muddle-headed state and had difficulty achieving anything.

However, the worship of Bao Zheng by tens of millions of people in Jiuzhou was so strong that it made up for his shortcomings in foundation.

The new Wei Dynasty brought about a new atmosphere. Although the tax reform offended many landlords and local tyrants, it won the support of the grassroots people.

All the time, the incense and spiritual power rolling in from all directions gathered on Cao Jie's soul, causing a pure white halo to appear behind the head of the "Son of Heaven".

This halo looks exactly like the halo behind the heads of the Taoist and Buddha sculptures in temples.

Especially as the aperture rotated, an incomparably vast spiritual and soul pressure permeated, a pressure that could make even the gods feel like surrendering.

In the system of the Great Wei Dynasty where worship is the way to godhood, Cao Jie is the supreme being.
