My avatar is a god

When Xu Xiao broke through Lijiafang City and looted the spoils, Wei Xiaojiang brought Wang Junyi, a disciple of the national teacher, to the National Guard Temple in Shanyin County.

In every town of Weiguo, there is a National Guard Temple. The two national guardian gods enshrined in the National Guard Temple are not real gods, but two ancestral spirits of the royal family of Weiguo.

In places where the royal family of Weiguo is strong, the National Guard Temple has developed very well, with strong incense and many believers. In places where the power of local aristocratic families is dominant, the ancestral spirits worshipped by the aristocratic families and the National Guard Temple compete for incense, which greatly restricts the development of believers in the National Guard Temple. In places where the power of the immortal cultivation sects is strong, due to the strong suppression of the immortal cultivation sects, the National Guard Temple is even more deserted, and there are very few believers.

Qingshan County is a place with a lack of spiritual energy and a poor environment for cultivating immortals. The immortal cultivation sects regard it as a desert and have no intention of developing here. The local Li family, a family of prestige, has limited strength and has always been at a disadvantage in the struggle for believers. Especially in Shanyin County, a county with a large population, the Temple of the Protector of the Nation was the only one that dominated and monopolized the faith.

Unfortunately, some time ago, the official organization of the Weiguo hunted down the wanted criminal Blood Hand Man Butcher. Blood Hand Man Butcher fought and fled, leading the pursuers into Shanyin County. Intentionally or unintentionally, the Temple of the Protector of the Nation, which represented the official power of the Weiguo, became a battlefield for fierce fighting between the two sides. After the war, the Temple of the Protector of the Nation, which was caught in the crossfire, was completely turned into a ruin, and all the clergy died.

Xu Xiao, who was very lucky, picked up a big loophole and took advantage of a big loophole. When he developed believers in Shanyin County, he did not encounter any resistance. When the Tianzun Sect was established, the Temple of the Protector of the Nation, which should have been the biggest opponent of the Tianzun Sect, was unable to stop it, giving the Tianzun Sect the best development space.

Wei Xiaojiang looked at the Temple of the Protector of the Nation in front of him with a gloomy face. It didn't look like a temple at all, it was just a large construction site. The Temple of the Protector of the Nation has been destroyed for so long, and the reconstruction has not been completed yet, and the clergy are nowhere to be found.

This group of damn bureaucrats only know how to argue and shirk responsibility, and they don't put their minds on the main business at all. Wei Xiaojiang thought viciously.

The Temple of the Protector of the Nation has a huge system in Weiguo, which supports a large number of bureaucrats. The self-contained management system is impossible for outsiders to get involved. The various tangled relationships inside involve extremely wide-ranging interests, which are simply messy and cannot be cut out. Such a bureaucratic organization has a low efficiency, which is simply outrageous.

"A bunch of bastards, there is no trace of loyalty to the country. With such an attitude, how can they compete with the evildoers like Tianzun Sect." Wei Xiaojiang, who became more and more angry, couldn't help but curse.

In fact, Wei Xiaojiang's words did not grasp the essence of the problem at all.

The Temple of the Protector of the Nation does not worship the real gods, but only the ancestral spirits of the royal family of Weiguo. The ancestral spirits cannot grant the priests divine arts, but can only temporarily lend their power to their blood descendants. Clergy without divine powers can only preach by talking, relying purely on deception. Although the Tianzun Sect worships Xu Xiao's divine clone, the divine clone is a real god. Not only can it bestow divine powers on priests, but it can also show miracles, and the holy water of Ganlin is a killer for preaching.

The Temple of the Protector of the Country has long been transformed into a bureaucratic institution. It is not easy to ask the bureaucratic institution to lower its status and preach among the people.

If it were not for the power of incense and faith related to the survival foundation of the ancestral spirit, the royal family of Weiguo would have spared no expense and spent a lot of money, and the situation of preaching in the Temple of the Protector of the Country would have been even worse.

Wei Xiaojiang, who is far-sighted, is still encouraging and supporting the Tianzun Sect to confront the Yin Gui Sect, but he has already made preparations and wants to use the power of the Temple of the Protector of the Country to curb the development of the Tianzun Sect. But the Temple of the Protector of the Country in front of him looks like a piece of mud that cannot be helped, how can it be responsible for the task?

"The luck of the Tianzun Sect is too good. They just faced the Yin Gui Sect, but the Yin Gui Sect got entangled with Huilongguan again." Wang Junyi, who had just received the latest news, said angrily.

A few days ago, a cold iron vein was discovered at the junction of the Yin Gui Sect and Huilongguan forces. In places like Weiguo where immortal cultivation resources are scarce, the immortal cultivation sects don't care about their eating manners at all. It's not enough to describe their greed as vicious dogs snatching food. In other rich places, a cold iron vein is not worth mentioning. But here, it is enough to trigger a war between the immortal cultivation sects.

If the consequences of a full-scale war between the immortal cultivation sects were not too terrible, the Yin Gui Sect and Huilongguan might have already started a war. Although a fragile peace is still maintained for the time being, the two sides have mobilized their forces and started a confrontation without giving in to each other.

"The Yin Gui Sect and Huilongguan are in a standoff, and the Yin Gui Sect may not be able to take care of the Tianzun Sect for the time being." Wei Xiaojiang concluded disappointedly.

The three ghosts of the foundation-building period of the Yin Gui Sect had ambushed in advance and set up a formation, but they were all killed by Tianzun Sect Master Xu Xiao, which means that Tianzun Sect Master Xu Xiao has at least the combat power of the late foundation-building period.

The battle between cultivators is not a game. After the three ghosts failed, the Yin Gui Sect could not continue to send out small monsters of the foundation-building period for Xu Xiao to kill and increase his experience points. The only correct way for the Yin Gui Sect is to send out the combat power of the Jindan period and completely wipe out the Tianzun Sect with a thunderous force.

The Jindan period cultivators represent the highest combat power in the Weiguo cultivation world. The survival of every Jindan period cultivator is related to the rise and fall of the forces they belong to. The Jindan period strongmen, who are usually the ultimate deterrent force, are the existence that suppresses the luck of one side and cannot be used easily.

The Yin Gui Sect, which is caught in a confrontation with Huilongguan, will not easily send out Jindan period strongmen.

At this time, one of Wei Xiaojiang's men brought him the latest news. Tianzun Sect Leader Xu Xiao had already broken through Lijia Market and killed all the fighting forces of the Li family.

Receiving this expected news, Wei Xiaojiang sighed helplessly. If he had not been sure of winning, and if it were not for the tradition of Weiguo officials not to personally take action. He would have had an impulse to personally kill Xu Xiao, the Tianzun Sect Leader, and eliminate the threat of Tianzun Sect in the bud.

Xu Xiao, who made Wei Xiaojiang feel helpless, was very busy at this time.

After breaking through Lijia Market, the remaining mortals of the Li family were just meat on the chopping board. They could be slaughtered whenever they wanted, and there was no need to worry. With the power of the Li family, the aristocratic family of Ping County, there was no major obstacle to the missionary work of Tianzun Sect in Qingshan County.

The four counties of Qingshan County and their surrounding areas were already food in the mouth of Tianzun Sect. Although he promised Wei Xiaojiang not to preach in Qingshan County, he secretly set up a base for collecting intelligence and opened an underground dojo for secret preaching. These are all expected. Xu Xiao has never been a person who is so easily bound.

Seven days after Xu Xiao broke through Lijiafang City, Qian Qianren, the chief constable of Qingshan County, secretly came to Lijiafang City. Since Qian Qianren's identity as the chief constable was still very useful to Tianzun Sect, the news of his joining Tianzun Sect was not made public.

After a brief secret initiation ceremony, Xu Xiao also fulfilled his promise and treated Qian Qianren's injuries.

Qian Qianren's injuries were completely different from Qin Gang, who was also injured by the Blood Hand Man-Slaughterer. On the surface, there was no serious problem, but inside the body, there was a sinister and strange power that was constantly devouring Qian Qianren's vitality and strengthening itself. With Qian Qianren's martial arts master's physique, if he could not get effective treatment, it is estimated that he would have at most three months to live.

As soon as the divine power borrowed by Xu Xiao from the avatar of the gods entered Qian Qianren's body, it triggered a rebound of that power. Two forces of completely different natures began a fierce battle with Qian Qianren's body as the battlefield.

While Xu Xiao used divine power to protect Qian Qianren's body, he said: "This level of power is not something that ordinary mortal warriors can possess. The origin of this blood-handed butcher seems to be very problematic."

Gritting his teeth to endure the waves of severe pain coming from his body, Qian Qianren said: "It is said that there are cultivators behind the blood-handed butcher to support him. Otherwise, the court's many encirclements and suppressions would not have ended in failure."

The blood-handed butcher is the enemy who killed Xu Xiao's father and mother in this life. The accidental death of his parents triggered a series of changes later. Xu Xiao wanted to meet this great enemy, but he never had the opportunity. Since the last war, the blood-handed butcher has disappeared without a trace. Neither the official Weiguo nor the Tianzun Sect has any news of his whereabouts.

After carefully studying the power in Qian Qianren's body and remembering his breath, Xu Xiao did not hold back.

The powerful divine power poured into Qian Qianren's body, tearing this sinister and strange power into pieces, and transformed it into pure vitality to feed Qian Qianren himself.

Qian Qianren, who had finished the treatment, was recovering rapidly. But in a moment, he felt that he had recovered and his physical condition was better than before the injury.

Xu Xiao ignored Qian Qianren's gratitude. Qian Qianren's faith was not high. Of course, this person had great value, and some shortcomings could be tolerated.

Before Xu Xiao left the secret room for treatment, he still said a few words to Qian Qianren.

"God's grace is like the sea, and God's power is like a prison. Today, the Supreme God Daluo Tianzun has bestowed God's grace and healed your injuries. If you betray your faith in the future, God's power will punish you and make you live a life worse than death."
