Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar

Regardless of the commotion on the official side of Great Xia, Lu Wenwu feels that his current state is quite good.

The official speed was quick; that evening, they delivered the cellphone and computer Lu Wenwu needed, along with a credit card with unlimited usage.

Thus, early the next morning, Lu Wenwu grabbed the liaison and went for a stroll in Yanjing City.

Walking in the bustling Yanjing City, there’s a unique feeling.

This place is prosperous and lively, with an ancient aesthetic that Blue Star doesn’t possess.

It’s a unique aesthetic that blends ancient architectural structures with modern ones, appearing both familiar and strange.

Compared to the continuous concrete and steel in Blue Star’s cities, here, there’s occasionally a relatively lower place among the urban clusters.

No need to ask, it must be some sects and Immortal Gods’ temples, shrines, and halls or something, places for incense offerings and worship.

The scent of burning incense and candles is noticeable even across a street.

Besides those particularly obscure Immortal Gods, some so obscure they’re somewhat Underworld-like, most of these priestly sites have very prosperous incense offerings.

For a world clearly knowing the existence of Immortal Gods, this situation is somewhat reasonable.

A large number of priestly and religious goods are placed blatantly in the most visible locations of each roadside shop, making even the eight-lane city main roads resemble some scenic imitation ancient streets.

Lu Wenwu observes his surroundings with interest, holding Mao Mao, and leisurely walks along the street with the crowd.

Eventually, he stops at the entrance of a classic ancient-temple gate.

The incense offerings here are very prosperous, and visitors come and go continuously.

Looking up, the plaque on the gate reads five golden bright characters - True Monarch of Destiny Temple.

"Xiaogao, is this the right place?" Lu Wenwu lowers his mouth, "Is it really effective here?"

"Yes, Senior."

The liaison Xiaogao, with dark circles under his eyes, responds.

"The True Monarch of Destiny ascended the Upper Realm forty-one years ago, being the latest recorded ascension among Immortal Gods. Whether before or after ascension, he has been very active, widely recognized."

"According to some Great Cultivators who interacted with the True Monarch of Destiny, he is generous and helpful. Due to often fulfilling his devotees’ requests, his followers are numerous."

"Oh? Truly an interesting person."

Lu Wenwu spends six yuan at the ticket booth to buy three tickets and then receives nine sticks of incense from a Daoist-attired staff member on the left.

Not the God-Inviting Soul-Nourishing Incense previously found at the Dao Fire True Monarch Temple, just ordinary incense without any special attributes.

"Did the True Monarch of Destiny leave any inheritance in the Human World, or establish any forces before his ascension?" After dividing the incense with Mao Mao and Xiaogao, he casually asks.

Xiaogao takes the incense and shakes his head slightly: "No, the records don’t mention the True Monarch of Destiny leaving any descendants or heirs, let alone sects or forces. Even the current temple and Divine Statue were self-funded and built by devotees."

Mao Mao, unsure of what his owner is busy with, has already lit his three incense sticks and discreetly uses Spiritual Power to insert them into the sand underneath the incense burner while no one is watching.

Hope my owner is happy every day! Hope Mao Mao can eat delicious food every day!

Mao Mao’s wishes are simple and direct.

On the other side, Xiaogao glances at the sky and whispers very softly: "However, my personal advice is, Senior, maybe don’t make a wish to the True Monarch of Destiny, even if he is indeed effective."

"Why is that?" Lu Wenwu is puzzled, "Isn’t it a good thing for wishes to come true?"

Xiaogao firmly shakes his head: "Indeed effective, but the way it manifests usually isn’t easily accepted by people; many colleagues around me have had this kind of painful experience."

"There’s such a thing?" Lu Wenwu is surprised, "Tell me more."

Xiaogao, with a firm expression, discreetly explains: "Before, there was a colleague whose wife made a wish here, hoping to spend a few quiet days in a simple two-person world without having to bring along the kids. True Monarch of Destiny was very powerful, fulfilling the wish that night."

Lu Wenwu raises an eyebrow: "Isn’t that a good thing? Shows that the True Monarch of Destiny is quite good!"

Xiaogao calmly explains: "That night, my colleague had a bike accident, broke his leg, fractured four ribs, and lay in a VIP hospital room for a month, with his wife accompanying him every day."

"He later learned that my colleague had also been to the True Monarch of Destiny Temple before and wished to become wealthy overnight. Truly wealthy, as the rich second generation driving under the influence compensated over three million to privately settle it with him."

Lu Wenwu: "???"

Wait, what???"

"Quiet, simple, two-person world, don’t have to bring the kids, wealthy overnight, you just say whether this request was realized or not."

"... hopefully, people are alright."

"Also, before, a young man came from the Armed Forces Department, a doctoral student at Yanjing Academy, his advisor finally expected him after ages, and then, out of nowhere, on the third day of school, the guy suddenly applied for suspension to join the military."

"Is that true? What wish did he make?"

"Actually, it wasn’t him, it was his sister who made the wish before he unexpectedly got into the doctorate. She wished for a high-education soldier brother to accompany her for life, and well... only can say the True Monarch of Destiny is very generous, fulfilling two wishes at once."
