I Materialized the Cultivation Game

Inside the great hall, Chen Han listened to his aunt and four palace guards reciting the evening Taoist scriptures.

Generally, during the evening prayers in the Taoist Sect, all participants are supposed to recite the scriptures.

However, on this first day, the clan members had just gotten off work and simply did not have time to learn this.

Moreover, he had no intention of forcing everyone to learn it, as his ultimate goal was to have the clan members earnestly offer incense. Whether they recited the scriptures or not was not important.

However, he believed that as time went on, some clan members would take the initiative to learn, thereby influencing others and eventually encouraging everyone to learn.

Since they knew they had the real protection of the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable, this was their chance to make an impression in front of him. Others have learned and recited, whether the Venerable remembers is unknown, but what if he remembers those who haven’t learned and recited properly?

As the evening prayer proceeded, more and more visitors gathered around, many had already entered the great hall, each patiently waiting for the Chen Clan’s scripture reciter to come out and recite the Calm Heart Technique.

The ongoing evening prayer really didn’t have any highlights yet.

Liu Ye thought the same; he had visited Master Xinyan’s temple and witnessed the Buddhist morning prayers, which were truly impressive. The current state of the Chen Clan was a bit...

Finally, as the evening prayers concluded, Chen Han watched as his aunt began to lead people in offering incense, his face filled with anticipation.

”Worship the Celestial Venerable, offer incense!” instructed his aunt. Upon her call, the Chen clan members all held incense and bowed, ultimately placing the incense sticks into the censer.

Simultaneously, game prompts started appearing one after another in Chen Han’s mind:

[Congratulations, you have gained 1 Wish Point!]

...

[Congratulations, you have gained 1 Wish Point!]

...

[Congratulations, you have gained 1 Wish Point!]

The densely packed prompts led Chen Han to directly check the upgrade condition for the sect’s base: 10,000 Wish Points (79/10000).

It indeed worked.

This wave alone increased by 72 Wish Points.

If this continues, clan members offering incense after morning and evening prayers every day will steadily provide him with many Wish Points.

Of course, if he wants the Wish Points to grow faster, perhaps he should think of ways involving those tourists.

At this moment, Chen Jing also walked out from the side hall.

He was now dressed in a Daoist robe, holding a duster in his hand, and a scripture recitation master’s hat on his head.

The process of scripture recitation follows a ritual, and Chen Jing had been trained several times on this by his aunt. Thus, he stepped to the scripture recitation position in the great hall as soon as he emerged.

The scripture recitation position is located on both sides of the offering altar in front of the deity statue or beside the scriptures table.

Since Chen Jing was the only scripture reciter, he naturally sat beside the scriptures table.

His aunt’s voice rang out again: ”Sit quietly, the scripture reciter will start reciting!”

As she spoke, the Chen clan members returned to their previous spots, sitting cross-legged, each curiously looking at Chen Jing.

During a previous enlightenment ceremony, everyone had heard the patriarch recite the Calm Heart Technique. The wondrous sensation was still vividly remembered, and now Chen Jing had been authorized by the patriarch to perform this recitation.

Many couldn’t help but feel envious.

Liu Ye and the tourists around them realized that the young man emerging from the side hall was the scripture reciter of the Chen Clan.

”So young, isn’t that unreliable?” a tourist whispered.

”Indeed, I’ve been to Wudang Mountain, where the scripture reciters are all seasoned elders,” another quietly agreed.

But just then, Chen Jing began reciting the Ancient Calm Heart Technique.

Having a background in music, he possessed a strong foundation. Situated beside the scriptures table, his recitation was audible not only to the Chen clan members but also to the onlookers within the great hall, including Liu Ye.

In the sound of the recitation, a wonderful sensation struck, as if anxiety, the pressures of life, and numerous trivial annoyances vanished instantly.

A splendid void nether state enveloped them, where thoughts soared and clarity in thinking emerged—could this be the focused mind state described on the plaque?

It actually had such an effect.

Under Chen Jing’s recitation of the Ancient Calm Heart Technique, everyone calmed down, indulging in this indescribable wonderful state.

This condition persisted until Chen Jing finished his recitation, suddenly snapping everyone back from that marvelous state, each person’s mouth agape with shock.

”Did you feel that just now?”

”Yes, that sensation was so miraculous!”

”The plaque’s claims are true, the Chen clan’s scripture recitation truly has cinematic effects.”

”...”

The astonished tourists couldn’t help but clamor in excitement, unable to restrain their emotions.

Some tourists couldn’t resist pulling out their recorded videos, listening with headphones, as the scene of the young scripture reciter chanting the Calm Heart Technique had indeed been captured in full.

Any gathering includes the peculiar ones.

But these tourists realized that the recorded scripture recitation didn’t have the same effect as experienced earlier.

Just recording doesn’t work?

Even so, some tourists couldn’t resist their urge to share.

Wang Lili was one of them.

She’s the type who must post everywhere she goes, sharing beautiful scenes or rare sights in her social circles.

For instance, she recorded plenty of material outside the courtyard while watching Patriarch Chen and an influencer shoot videos, intending to edit and post on Tiao Yin in the evening, hoping to reach a wide audience.

Now, having experienced the Chen clan’s scripture recitation, she felt that wondrous sensation, just like the magical moments depicted in films and dramas.

There are movie scenes showing restless individuals soothed to tranquility by Daoists or masters through scripture recitation.
