Chapter 1777: Demon-Slaying Temple
If Shen Xiang wanted to make a lot of divine money by refining pills here, he had to first find a residence in this city, then condense the spiritual liquid, copy a large amount of medicinal materials, and then start refining pills.
If he didn\'t have the tracking spell, he would definitely have dug a cave in the deep mountains and forests outside and hidden inside to make the elixir, which would have saved him a lot of money.
For the sake of safety, he now has no choice but to stay in a divine city, so that he can concentrate on refining the elixir without any worries. However, finding a place to live in the divine city requires divine money.
According to what he had learned, these divine cities generally did not sell houses, but only rented them out. The rents in good places were very expensive, while the rents in bad places were cheap but the environment was very bad. This was also a way for the divine cities to make money!
It is possible to buy a house, but the price is very high and not affordable for ordinary people.
If one only stays in this divine city for a short period of time, one would generally choose to stay in an inn or hotel. However, Shen Xiang plans to stay for a long time, so he can only look for a place to stay. The cost of staying in inns and hotels is too high, and these places are not suitable for alchemy.
"I don\'t have much divine money on me, so I have to sleep on the street tonight." Shen Xiang looked at the sky and saw that it was getting dark. He just asked and found out that the monthly rent for an ordinary small house was two thousand divine money.
Most people can only earn two to three thousand dollars a month, so the rent is relatively high, and it is usually cost-effective to rent together with several people.
"If I had known before coming here, I should have asked Sister Meng\'er and the others to give me some Dingtian Stones. I can sell them for a lot of money here, enough for me to get through the beginning."
Shen Xiang was wandering on the street, looking for a good place to spend the night.
Just when Shen Xiang was planning to sleep on the street, he suddenly saw a very familiar face appear in front of him, which surprised him.
"Tai Qiang!" Shen Xiang hurriedly sent a message to the middle-aged man in front.
Although some unpleasant things happened between Shen Xiang and Tai Qiang when he was in the Divine Prison, they reconciled in the end. Moreover, Tai Qiang was able to leave the Divine Prison with the help of Shen Xiang. To Tai Qiang, Shen Xiang is his great benefactor.
Tai Qiang was also very surprised when he heard the familiar voice in his mind. He didn\'t expect that he would meet Shen Xiang again.
"Shen Xiang, is it really you?" Tai Qiang still couldn\'t believe it. He thought that Shen Xiang was already in trouble. After all, the Demon Emperor of Hell and several gods joined forces to capture Shen Xiang. Not everyone could escape.
"Manager Tai, I didn\'t expect that we would meet so soon!" Shen Xiang responded. His appearance had changed now, but Tai Qiang could know where Shen Xiang was based on his voice transmission.
"It\'s not that fast. Five thousand years have passed!" Tai Qiang sighed. He had already come to Shen Xiang\'s side.
Taiqiang is a higher-level true god, and compared to most people here, his strength is quite good.
"I just came to the Realm of Gods. When I arrived, I was chased by a large group of strong men. Fortunately, I ran fast." Shen Xiang sighed as he followed behind Tai Qiang.
Tai Qiang said: "No wonder I heard that many experts gathered in Tongshen City some time ago. It turns out they were there to deal with you."
"Lao Tai, do you have a place here? I just came here, and I used up the last of my god money in order to teleport to this god city. Can I stay at your place for a while?"
Chen Xiang was Tai Qiang\'s benefactor, so Tai Qiang was very happy and said readily: "No problem, my place is relatively big!"
Shen Xiang and Tai Qiang chatted all the way and learned that Tai Qiang came to the Demon-Slaying City after he came out of the Divine Prison. Because the Demon-Slaying City was mainly responsible for dealing with the Hell Temple of the Hell Demon Emperor, and Tai Qiang seemed to have a grudge against the Hell Temple, so he found a job in the Demon-Slaying City.
Tai Qiang is a higher-level true god, the strongest under the Xuan God, so he is currently working in the Demon-Slaying Temple in the Demon-Slaying City, mainly responsible for hunting down evil demons.
As long as someone provides clues and determines where there is a powerful evil demon, the Demon-Slaying Temple will send people to kill it. Taiqiang is now the captain of a team, and he can get tens of thousands of divine money every month.
So Taiqiang lives in a very nice place, in a mountain villa with mountains, water and pleasant scenery. It is a house built halfway up the mountain.
"Old Tai, you are living a good life!" Shen Xiang sat on a comfortable chair, took a sip of the fine wine that Tai Qiang brought out, and exclaimed: "This house should be very expensive!"
"Isn\'t it? It costs at least several million divine coins. I am also renting it now because everything here belongs to the Demon Slaying Temple, and I am a member of the Demon Slaying Temple, so I rented it very cheaply, only two thousand divine coins a month."
"This villa is full of people like me. As long as it\'s not a holiday, we have to leave immediately once we receive a notice. Sometimes it\'s quite dangerous. A few days ago, several guys from the mountain next to me all went to see the Demon Emperor of Hell." Tai Qiang sighed: "This is also a life of licking blood on the knife. It\'s not easy to make money!"
Chen Xiang smiled and said: "It\'s easier to make money than in the God\'s Prison!"
"Of course. Back then, it was difficult to earn a single coin in the Divine Prison." Thinking back to the many years wasted in the Divine Prison, Taiqiang sighed.
"Brother Shen, how about you join the Demon Slayer Temple? You are currently at odds with the Hell Demon Emperor, and the God of Wealth and the God of Fire are just joining in the fun. Once you join the Demon Slayer Temple, the God of Wealth and the God of Fire will definitely stop. As for the Hell Demon Emperor, there is no need to worry about that. The Demon Slayer Temple and the Hell Temple have always been mortal enemies."
Shen Xiang had thought about this before, but he was worried that after joining the Demon Slaying Temple, his freedom would be restricted to a certain extent, and he didn\'t want to be subject to too many constraints.
Tai Qiang saw Shen Xiang\'s concerns, and hurriedly said: "Actually, you don\'t have to worry. The Demon Slaying Temple is different from other temples. This temple will not tie people up to death. As long as you don\'t want to hang out in the Demon Slaying Temple, you can leave at any time! However, most people who enter the Demon Slaying Temple will choose to stay in the end, and it is not so easy to join the Demon Slaying Temple."
"Of course, if it\'s you, I think it will be very easy. Maybe the Devil Slayer will come out to talk to you personally."
Shen Xiang was already tempted. If it was really as Tai Qiang said, there wouldn\'t be too many restrictions and he could leave at any time, then joining the Demon Slayer Temple now would indeed be a good choice. In addition, he had another purpose, which was to see if the Demon Slayer God could help him get rid of the tracking spell that annoyed him.
The Demon-Slaying Temple has always left a good impression on Shen Xiang, because Lu Zhen came from the Demon-Slaying Peak, his master Huang Jintian was also from the Demon-Slaying Peak, and even Su Meiyao and Bai Youyou had some relationship with the Demon-Slaying Peak, so the Demon-Slaying Temple gave him a sense of familiarity.
"Okay!" Shen Xiang nodded: "When are you free, take me to the Demon Slayer Temple. I hope that the fact that I join the Demon Slayer Temple will be kept secret for the time being."
Tai Qiang was very happy that Shen Xiang was going to join the Demon Slayer Temple. He smiled and said, "I will take you there now, directly to find the Demon Slayer Heavenly God\'s eldest disciple. That guy is also my current master."
Although it was already too dark, Tai Qiang said it was okay and still brought Shen Xiang to a giant tower in the middle of this divine city.
In the dark night, this giant tower, which is a thousand feet high, emits a silvery-white light, shrouding the center of the entire divine city in this sacred silvery-white light. This is the Demon-Slaying Temple, a magnificent and sacred building, with gods inside.
Shen Xiang followed behind Tai Qiang. Tai Qiang had already informed his master, the eldest disciple of the Demon Slayer God, whose name was Ren Tianyong. He was an upper-level Xuan God and also had the qualifications of a God of War. He was the leader of the ten Gods of War in the Demon Slayer Temple and had a great reputation in the circle of Gods of War in the entire world of gods.
This powerful god of war should give Shen Xiang the impression that he is murderous and tall and strong, but after Shen Xiang saw Ren Tianyong, he was surprised.
Ren Tianyong looked very elegant, wearing an old gown and holding a folding fan in his hand. There were beautiful words written on the fan, which looked like they were written by a woman. Although he looked delicate, he was not weak, because he was very tall. Although he was not strong, he was not thin either, but very well-proportioned. He had a strong scholarly air and did not look like a war god at all.
After seeing Shen Xiang, Ren Tianyong smiled slightly, without giving people a feeling of superiority.
"It\'s a wise choice for you to come here. Xiaotai told me about your concerns. I can guarantee that what you worry about will never happen." Ren Tianyong went straight to the point and got down to business.
"Since I have joined the Demon Slayer Temple, I will also follow the rules of the Demon Slayer Temple!" Shen Xiang nodded and said with a smile: "But I don\'t want the Hell Demon Emperor to know that I have joined the Demon Slayer Temple yet."
Ren Tianyong chuckled: "You have a tracking spell on you, and you are here. Even if we don\'t tell him, he will guess it. And then we will help you unlock the final curse. The Hell Demon Emperor, as long as he is not a fool, can think of your choice."
Shen Xiang was overjoyed that this Demon-Slaying Temple could actually help him break the damn tracking spell!
"Then what do I need to do now to officially join the Demon Slaying Temple?" Shen Xiang has decided to join temporarily.
"If it was anyone else, we would follow the Demon Slayer Temple\'s traditional procedures, but for you... we\'ll make an exception and let the main temple\'s gods come directly."
Tai Qiang was shocked and said, "The main temple god came in person? Does this mean he wants to accept a disciple?"
Ren Tianyong smiled and said, "Not really, they all say it\'s an exception... The main hall god knows that Shen Xiang doesn\'t want to become a disciple, so he doesn\'t have this idea. He does this just to make the God of Wealth, the God of Fire and other gods stop staring at Shen Xiang!"
