Alternate Dimension Game: Happiness is all that matters!
Chapter 444 - 306

Chapter 444: 306

Li Qingshan crouched on the roof, taking quick, small steps.

Soon, he arrived at the Taoist temple of the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother.

The temple was grand in scale, a lavish wooden structure shaped like a gigantic turtle. It was over thirty meters tall and a hundred meters in length and width.

Beside the temple flowed the "Submerged Turtle River"—a river comparable in size to the Huangpu River.

With the dim light of the lanterns, one could see the plaque above that read "Turtle Mansion."

It was said that hundreds of years ago, Fenghua City was just a small fishing village. The local fishermen worshipped the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother for good harvests, and over time, the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother became a True God, and the village evolved into a city.

Li Qingshan jumped down from the roof and immediately felt a wave of coldness; there were no signs of anyone in the vicinity.

The temple was brightly lit. The spiritual tablet of "Nameless Wen Shu" was located in a secluded hall. It was originally a minor deity, but in recent years its popularity had surged through some means.

Li Qingshan held his breath, secretly peering in. The statue had a green face and sharp teeth, a bizarre body with a human face, a slender figure, and mosquito-like wings similar to the creature he saw at the Kunlun estate but not exactly the same.

On closer inspection, the statue of "Nameless Wen Shu" showed no signs of divine power.

Li Qingshan frowned slightly, feeling something was off.

Generally speaking, an avatar of a deity should be identical to its statue and would not easily leave its temple, otherwise the Power of Incense would diminish. Only those like the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother, who had some support, possessed the freedom to move.

"What’s going on... where has this incarnation gone?"

Suddenly, Li Qingshan’s ears twitched as he heard a painful roar coming from the direction of the main hall, the undertone raspy, seemingly not human...

...

...

[You build up the courage to approach the "Turtle Mansion" main hall and see a terrifying scene through the gap in the window!]

[A blue phantom with twin spikes perched atop the huge statue of the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother, its pointed mouth piercing deep into the turtle’s head, seemingly channeling a pale white light from the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother’s body into the blue phantom. [Photo]]

[The appearance of this phantom was the same entity you saw at the Kunlun estate!]

[Inside the brightly lit temple, many people dressed in white were fanatically worshipping something, chanting unknown scriptures, and lighting some yellow paper. You faintly recognized them as Taoists from the Kunlun sect.]

[Before long, a light pink mist emanated from the rear of the blue phantom, and the crowd inside the temple became even more frenetic, crazily inhaling this mist.]

[The Turtle Spirit Saint Mother was extremely angry but was restrained by the blue phantom, unable to do anything but emit faint roars of helplessness!]

"This scene is so disgusting, people eating pink farts! What kind of bizarre Evil God is this?" Wang Hao held his phone and unconsciously pinched his nose as if he smelled something foul.

He suppressed his curiosity and continued reading.

[You recall a term after seeing this: "spiritual usurpation."]

[Among the deities of the Mountain and Sea Realm, harmony is not always prevalent; they fight brutally over resources and the anchoring Power of Incense.]

[The lowest form of "spiritual usurpation" is expelling a rival from their territory, causing them to lose their foundation. The "Burnt Flesh Great Mother" of Qingshi Town was once expelled by an Evil God, losing popular worship and her Power of Incense gradually declined, eventually making her weak and feeble.]

[The second form of "spiritual usurpation" is to destroy an avatar, plundering decades or even centuries of stored Power of Incense.]

[The highest form of "spiritual usurpation" is to forcibly subjugate a rival, seizing their title for personal use.]

[You hid in the shadows and watched for a while, feeling terrified. The dark gray phantom had an overwhelming advantage and did not seem to intend to kill the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother’s avatar outright; it looked like it wanted to completely subjugate and steal her title.]

[Watching the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother in agony, she might not last much longer...]

[You didn’t have much time to think. Outsider, what do you plan to do now?]

"That mosquito has some big ambitions, I wonder if it’s the same one that left ’Nameless Wen Shu,’ or maybe, ’Nameless Wen Shu’ is also enslaved by this mosquito-like creature."

Wang Hao was intrigued and opened the photo to see a ferocious mosquito-like creature perched on the turtle’s head, sucking out its vitality.

This bizarre scene reminded him of an un-investitured character in "Investiture of the Gods": Turtle Spirit Saint Mother!

The "Turtle Spirit Saint Mother" gained merit by helping Cang Jie create characters and took human form, but then along came a mosquito Taoist who sucked the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother dry.

In "Investiture of the Gods," immortals are basically immortal. Even notorious figures like Shen Gongbao could be appointed as the "East Sea Division Commander" after death. But the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother was alive and sucked dry by a mosquito, which led to suspicions that maybe the author had a personal agenda.

Now, the current Turtle Spirit Saint Mother seemed about to meet a similar fate, also being sucked dry by a mosquito?

Wang Hao felt a twinge of compassion as he looked at the options before him.

[1. Rush in, spread the Light of Righteousness (launch Meat Mountain Bomb), and help the Turtle Spirit Saint Mother break free.]

[2. Watch and see what happens.]
