Chapter 1556 Worship
“A Nascent Soul at around twenty years old?” Tigris was stunned for a moment. “If this were during ancient times, it would have been nothing strange. But in today’s world, a genius like that is extremely rare…”
After he contemted it for a while, Tigris spoke up once more. “Don’t mind him. As long as he doesn’t stir up trouble, leave him be… By the way, the faith energy has been showing signs of declely. Is this how you do things? You’re iparable to your brother,” said Tigris in an icy tone.
Upon hearing that, Terrell trembled all over. He pleaded, “I’ll see to it right away. Please forgive me, Tigris…”
“Go. If you’re not a good fit for this position, then let others take over.” Tigris dismissed Terrell with a wave of his hand.
Terrell left hurriedly with cold sweat dripping down his face.Meanwhile, Tigris went into a valley located behind his residence. A huge statue was ced right in the middle of the valley.
The statue looked ancient. It had been worn down over the years and begun to show signs of damage.
Even so, its dignified and majestic aura was not the slightest obscured despite its decrepit state.
A meditation cushion was ced in front of it. Respectfully, Tigris knelt down before the statue.The moment Terrell got back to the pce, he called for a meeting with all the Great Elders.
“Make an announcement that everyone must go and worship immediately. Those who do notply will be exiled from Encanta Ind!” said Terrell coldly.
The Great Elders wasted no time in getting everything arranged upon receiving the order.Everyone on Encanta Ind set aside what they were doing at once and went to the nearest temple to worship.
xseed was having his meal when he noticed everyone stop what they were doing and rush out. He was curious, so he followed them.
What he then saw was many people going into a temple. They did their worshipping and left after they were done.
After entering the temple along with the crowd, xseed was surprised to find that the object of worship was not any deity in particr but an ambiguous one-meter-tall stone statue.
Why are they worshipping a stone statue? Aren’t these people cultivators? Why would they worship a stone statue like this?
“Hey, you! Why aren’t you worshipping? Do you want to be exiled from Encanta Ind?” An old man who was over seventy years old spoke up when he noticed that xseed was standing there in a daze.
Following that, xseed quickly knelt and bowed his head twice as a sign of worship.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
However, unbeknownst to him, a wisp of white vapor arose from his body and went into the stone statue when he bowed down!
After xseed was done, he exited the temple with the elderly man.
“Mister, can you please tell me why the people here worship a stone statue but not deities? Also, why did everyone suddenly rush over to the temple like they’d just received an order?” asked xseed curiously as he fished out a cigarette for the elder and lit it up for thetter.
Puffing on the cigarette, the old man nced at xseed and said, “You must be new here.”
“Yes, that’s right. I’m new here…” replied xseed while nodding his head.
“Listen here. An order just came from the pce that everyone has to worship today. Whoever doesn’tply will be exiled from Encanta Ind. That was why everyone came to worship in a hurry,” exined the old man.
“Why must we worship a stone statue?” asked xseed.
“Beats me. That’s just how things are around here. Someone should have told you this when you first came here. Didn’t anyone brief you?” inquired the old man while looking at xseed in a slightly confused manner.
In response, xseed shook his head. “I’ve been here a couple of months, but no one told me about this…”
“I see. You must havee here as a traveler. So that’s why you didn’t know that you were supposed to worship at the temple. Let me tell you. There are rules on this ind that must be obeyed…”
As the old man informed xseed about the ways of the ind, thetter slowly got a better understanding of Encanta Ind.
