I Materialized the Cultivation Game

The Taoist sect has always emphasized offerings, which refer to a series of devotional acts undertaken by Taoist followers or devotees to express respect and piety towards deities and ancestors, as well as to support Taoist temples and practitioners in their cultivation.

These include contributions in terms of manpower, material resources, and financial resources.

Common practices include donating to temple construction, sponsoring the printing of benevolent books, organizing vegetarian feasts for the public, and participating in volunteer work at the temple as a form of manpower contribution.

In terms of material resources, it’s mainly offering items to the deities. On a daily basis, there are the ”Five Offerings,” which are incense, flowers, lamps, water, and fruit. On major holidays or ceremonies, there are the ”Ten Offerings,” which add tea, food, treasures, pearls, and clothing to the five.

Additionally, there’s the offering of various Taoist-related supplies or auspicious items.

For example, the two woods, two incenses, and one tree are related supplies and auspicious items.

The financial aspect is straightforward and requires no further explanation.

Moreover, there’s the scenario where devotees, having received favors from a Daoist, or having faith in a Daoist’s skills, make personal offerings to a specific Daoist each month in hopes of acquiring blessings.

In ancient times, these sorts of offerings were more prevalent.

For instance, the famous richest man of the Ming Dynasty, Shen Wansan, offered to Zhang Sanfeng; hence, people believed he gained blessings from Daoist Sanfeng, which made him the richest man.

Thus, at the time, it was quite popular to make offerings to Wudang and to Daoist Sanfeng.

In more practical terms, as written in Mr. Jin Sr.’s novels, a family that offered to Daoist Sanfeng was massacred, and the Seven Heroes of Wudang went straight to their enemies to eliminate them.

Now, the blessing task triggered by the game system is that as long as someone in the Chen Family makes offerings of two woods, two incenses, and one tree, this fulfills the Wish-Fulfillment task, thus allowing the believers providing wish power to be more fortunate under the Great Dao Laws?

To put it simply, once the task is completed, it’s the same as a mini-program lottery; visitors who provide wish power have a higher chance of winning.

In this way, it truly becomes reasonable and fair.

After all, the visitors who provide wish power are inherently more devoted, and they naturally deserve extra fortune; they can’t possibly have the same luck as other visitors.

It’s just that the game system treats this lottery mini-program as the Great Dao Laws, so if one day the mini-program crashes, does that mean the Great Dao is extinguished?

The thought is a bit overwhelming.

But what can be done?

The game system had a teleportation bug, and under normal circumstances, he should now be in the Shushan Game World.

This Great Dao Laws must then be the true Great Dao Laws; it feels like this wave can really take off in the game world.

But there’s no way, in reality, he can only dutifully manage this lottery mini-program, and ensure the successful offering of the two woods, two incenses, and one tree.

After all, still relying on the Wish-Fulfillment blessing to perfect the lottery mini-program, so that in the future, most winners are the more devoted people, which will be beneficial for the Chen Family both in reputation and practical interests.

Then, Chen Han recalls some Taoist information on the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable’s two woods, two incenses, and one tree.

The two woods should be peach wood and zimu wood.

Peach wood is known in Taoism for its purifying properties and is often used to make magical artifacts.

Zimu wood is considered an auspicious material and is used in temple construction, for items such as wooden fish, Holy Grail, altar table, and altar.

It’s just that wooden fish have now been contaminated, and Taoism has mostly abandoned their use.

And the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable’s rituals or events often make use of these two kinds of wood.

The Taoist sect has many kinds of incense, linked to many legends.

Those related to the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable should be agarwood and sandalwood.

Agarwood is believed to have the effects of communicating with the divine and dispelling evil. In many old movies, it is used to capture zombies and ghosts, and when lit, it can keep spirits away, making it related to demon-exorcism.

This fits a kind of incense suitable for the functions of the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable.

Sandalwood, with its fragrant aroma, can create a solemn, sacred atmosphere and is often used in the various ceremonies of the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable.

As for the one tree, it should be the Jade Flower Tree.

The Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable once reincarnated as a national prince due to the Jade Flower Tree, later going through trials to attain enlightenment and becoming a deity, thus the Jade Flower Tree is closely associated with the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable.

So now, as long as offerings are made for peach wood, zimu wood, agarwood, sandalwood, and the Jade Flower Tree, the Wish-Fulfillment blessing task is completed.

The problem is how to get others to make these offerings. Even for someone wealthy like Mr. Liu, if asked, he would certainly do it, but approaching him directly seems mercantile.

Therefore, even in offerings, it must be done spontaneously by others for it to have prestige.

Nearby.

Junior Sister and Xiaomi already started using their phones to set up the lottery mini-program he had configured, actually operating it.

The two of them studied it earnestly, as they had truly put a lot of effort into this National Style Event.

Only after confirming there was no issue did Junior Sister say, ”Senior Brother, there’s no problem with the mini-program you set up, so Sister Xiaomi and I will release the promotional video.”

With that, she led Xiaomi out of the kitchen.

By this time, the aroma of herbal cuisine had begun to spread, tantalizing the taste buds.

Chen Han then took out his phone to scroll through videos and check the online news, while also looking at the Chen Family’s popularity.

However, as soon as he opened Tiao Yin, the first video that popped up left him stunned:

”Because I am very traditional, I lived in cohabitation with my ex-boyfriend for eight years. Because I am kind-hearted, my bride price requirement is only 10 million!”

This was a snippet from a matchmaking show, where a woman was demanding a bride price of ten million on stage in front of countless people.

Chen Han wondered if there was a problem with his account, considering yesterday it suggested a video about a fairy who believed her husband, who brought in 50 or 60 thousand, was not worthy and wanted a divorce.
