Chapter 286: Chapter 286: God of Death, Lord of Reincarnation and Black Lotus Venerable Sage

Fang Jie had no idea about this perk, and it looked like the hidden advantages of a profession aren’t always apparent on the surface.

"Hello, may I ask who you are?" Fang Jie said, somewhat surprised.

"Just a guardian watching over the temple, what brings you here?"

Fang Jie pondered for a moment and decided to be straightforward. To him, this old man seemed to be a part of the temple itself, and likely didn’t have any particular biases. Otherwise, the rules wouldn’t protect him, and he probably would have been eliminated by those Light Elves already.

"I’d like to request a Divine Statue to take back, but I’m not sure what the requirements are."

Fang Jie saw countless indistinct figures inside the temple; it seemed there were definitely many gods being worshiped here. And these were only the gods of the Undead System; there might be an incredibly extravagant number including other systems.

"Each area managed by different gods has its own gods, and here in the Undead System, we have 132 gods. But the specific choice of god will depend on your needs."

If it were a regular person visiting this place, the guardian wouldn’t indulge in much small talk.

They would simply make their inquiries and fulfill their duties.

But Death Messengers were different; in their eyes, a Death Messenger was akin to a Divine Envoy, holding a certainly notable rank. The law of Death itself was seen as divine, and a grand god at that.

Fang Jie thought about it and then said, "I am a lord of an Undead background, but I am human myself. Moreover, my territory houses many different races, including all sorts of beings, even Puppet troops."

"So it is a mixed-type territory then. In that case, most of the gods from the Undead System wouldn’t be suitable for you. Most gods from the Undead System don’t like living beings in their territories."

"Is that so? What would happen if I chose the wrong god?"

"If you choose the wrong god, you must act according to that god’s rules. Some may require you to enslave all living beings in your territory, some may demand their extermination, and others might not even allow you to leave plants alone. Some with specific demands might even require you to transform into a special form."

Well, it’s good that I didn’t blindly make a choice; such problems could really put me in a tight spot.

"Given your circumstances, only three gods are suitable for you: the God of Death, the Lord of Reincarnation, and Black Lotus Venerable Sage."

What bizarre names, spanning both Eastern and Western styles. Even if it’s just a translation issue, these strange styles are too quirky. But regardless, it must be the naming style of gods.

"What are the differences between them?" Fang Jie directly inquired.

"The God of Death represents the strength of Death, but since there must be life before death, this god allows the presence of living beings on your territory. However, the God of Death neither repels nor favors living beings, so there won’t be any blessings."

Fang Jie nodded; this wasn’t a problem for him, but it would be for others.

If there are no benefits, how could others be willing to join him? There needed to be some attractions, not just oppression.

Fang Jie truly felt conflicted about this.

"The Lord of Reincarnation represents the cycle of life and death, so this god feels rather favorable towards life. To him, life and death are merely two states, nothing more."

"Is it like treating everyone equally?"

"Not quite; it’s still more inclined towards death; otherwise, it wouldn’t join our Camp."

That makes sense; if truly inclined towards life, it would be part of the Life Camp. If neutral, it would belong to the Neutral Camp. Gods from different camps wouldn’t be directly worshiped by those from other camps.

"What about the last one?" Fang Jie was very interested in the Black Lotus Venerable Sage.

Since his own Meditation Skill was called the Black Lotus Meditation Technique, he wondered if there was any connection.

"Black Lotus Venerable Sage is indeed a very mysterious god without specific responsibilities. We only know this god is very powerful and handles some external expansion affairs. This god doesn’t pay much attention to followers, so there are fewer worshippers."

Fang Jie lowered his head and thought; the God of Death wasn’t suitable for him, as it merely tolerated living beings.

He wanted to establish a force where all races could coexist, so he couldn’t worship that god.

Although the Lord of Reincarnation wasn’t bad, Fang Jie, for some reason, was very interested in Black Lotus Venerable Sage. This lack of concern for followers could grant him a lot of freedom.

If there was concern for followers, there would probably be many troublesome matters.

And since it was responsible for external expansion, being a god of battle, the added benefits must be related to combat.

"I’ve decided, I want to worship the Black Lotus Venerable Sage."

"Worshiping the Black Lotus Venerable Sage? That’s a good choice." The guardian was a bit stunned, originally thinking Fang Jie would choose one of the first two, especially since he was a Death Messenger.

Even though he accepts living beings, he was still human and likely inclined towards death.

It was unexpected that he would lean towards combat; perhaps the Undead Camp was about to see the rise of a new powerful military force.

However, the role of the guardian was only to guide and not influence others’ decisions, so since Fang Jie had made his choice, it wasn’t the guardian’s place to object.

"The status of Black Lotus Venerable Sage is too high; with your current status, you aren’t qualified to directly worship him. Thus, the gods you can worship are those under Black Lotus Venerable Sage, who are responsible for this region."

The guardian waved his hand, and several figures immediately moved forward, dissipating some of their vagueness.

Fang Jie could now see the introductions of these gods and some issues regarding their abilities.

Fang Jie quickly looked over; he hadn’t forgotten that he was in a race against time. "Then this one, the Cloud God," Fang Jie suddenly pointed at a special Divine Statue.

Then, a small object appeared in Fang Jie’s hand.

Fang Jie looked down to see a small statue in his hand, depicting the Cloud God.

"Please take the statue back to your territory’s temple, and just set it up properly." The guardian’s form gradually vanished, his role completed. At the same time, the entire temple exuded a repelling strength.

Fang Jie knew it was time to leave, so he quickly turned and walked out.

"Let’s go, don’t stay here any longer." Fang Jie quickly said to the people around him.
