Chu Ci came to the center of the prayer hall, looked at the base of the statue that had been prepared in the center, and praised: "Well done, Shanya."
Shan Ya, who was once the priest of the temple, deeply understood the importance of the first statue to the gods, so he did not choose to let the carving craftsmen put the already prepared statues on it, but let Chu Ci choose it himself.
The idol is the core of a temple. The gods can bless their divine power and magic on the idol, allowing believers to obtain blessings from the gods while worshiping the idol.
A good statue of a god can withstand more divine power and magic from the gods and exert greater power, thereby deepening the believers' faith and expanding the influence of the temple.
Especially the first statue of a god will be the main statue of all future temple statues. The god can descend and incarnate in other temples through the connection between the main statue and other statues.
Therefore, the first statue of a god is usually cast by the god himself.
Chu Ci stretched out his hand and waved, and the things brought down from the God Realm suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, floating in mid-air.
Mountain gold stone, elephant vein stone, divine power crystal...
Looking at these materials, Chu Ci hesitated.
Arnistone and elephant vein stone are both materials for forging statues of gods. They are relatively rare in the human world, but relatively common in the divine world. It just so happened that Chu Ci had prepared some before.
The statues forged by the two have their own benefits. Arganite is conducive to the transmission of divine power, while elephant vein stone is more sensitive to the soul.
As for the divine power crystal, it is used as the core of the statue to strengthen the statue and at the same time provide the statue with an increase in power.
After hesitating for a long time, Chu Ci seemed to have made up his mind: "Since it is the first statue of a god, then we must do the best!"
Chu Ci decided that this statue should be forged with the crystallization of divine power!
This is undoubtedly a very luxurious thing. Using the crystallization of divine power to forge a statue of a god, even a high-ranking god cannot do such a wasteful thing.
Because the power increase provided by divine power crystals is not infinitely superimposed, after reaching a critical point, the power increase efficiency will decrease. At this time, if you continue to add divine power crystals, the gain will outweigh the loss.
For example, every 100 points of divine power crystals can roughly double the power increase of the statue, but after passing the critical point, 200 points of divine power crystals are needed to double the power increase. The further back, the greater the effect of the increase.
Poor, in the end it will take dozens or even hundreds of times the number of divine power crystals to achieve a doubled power increase.
After experiments with many gods, we came to the conclusion that the critical point is 2,000 points of divine power crystals.
Chu Ci now has almost 5,000 points of divine power, all obtained from the God of Gamblers.
He decided to use all these crystals of divine power to cast statues of gods. Since they were obtained through free prostitution, he would not feel bad about using them up.
In fact, I’m still a little worried.
But even if all these divine power crystals are taken out, it is still not enough to cast a statue of the god. At most, a bust can be cast.
Chu Ci has naturally thought about this problem. He not only has the crystallization of divine power, but also has a newly obtained Earth Aperture Stone Insect Demon Core.
The size of the earth-aperture stone insect demon core is not small, and combined with the crystallization of divine power, it can just cast a statue of a god.
After thinking about it again and again and confirming that there was no problem, Chu Ci began to cast the statue.
Reach out and gather your divine power, use the divine flame to melt the divine power crystal and the core of the earthly orifice stone insect demon, and melt it into a ball of ooze-like material, then you can make a clay figurine.
As time passed, a majestic statue that was 70% similar to Chu Ci appeared on the pedestal, with his hands on his back and his eyes looking forward, as if watching the believers praying in the hall.
From the appearance, this statue is almost identical to the one in the temple.
Chu Ci is also very satisfied with his masterpiece. It seems that he has a talent for making clay figures.
After the casting of the statue is completed, the next step is to activate the statue and imbue it with divine power and magic.
Chu Ci stretched out his fingers and tapped the center of his eyebrows, and the diamond-shaped mark appeared again, condensing a divine power mark and sending it into the statue.
As the mark of divine power enters, the statue becomes more agile and exudes a trace of majesty belonging to the gods.
The entire temple also changed due to the activation of the statue, becoming more solemn and solemn.
The members of the law enforcement team patrolling the temple suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of awe in their hearts, and even their patrolling movements became cautious, as if they were afraid of disturbing the existence in the temple.
After the blessing of divine power is completed, it is the turn of divine magic.
Since the entire body is made of the crystallization of divine power and the demonic core of the Earthly Orifice Stone Insect, Chu Ci discovered that this statue can withstand the blessings of three divine arts.
This surprised Chu Ci. You must know that the number of magical spells that a normal statue can bless is only one or two. If there are more, the statue will be unable to withstand it and lead to collapse.
Chu Ci expected to have two magical arts, but now there is suddenly one more, and he has to rethink which magical technique to add.
Soon Chu Ci made a decision.
Star power and divine power appear in the prayer hall and converge on the statue of the god.
Holy Light!
Star healing!
Strengthening technique!
Holy Light Technique and Star Healing Technique are two magical techniques that Chu Ci decided to support from the beginning. One is responsible for exorcising evil spirits, and the other is responsible for healing. One is external and the other is internal. They are the most suitable magical techniques to attract believers.
As for the last strengthening technique, Chu Ci chose it not for the believers, but for the future temple personnel, so that they can exert greater strength within the radiation range of the power of the statue.
When all three divine spells are applied, the statue emits a faint fluorescent light, appearing holy and majestic.
After the statue was completely cast, an accident happened. Chu Ci discovered that he could faintly feel the existence of his virtual world through the statue.
Chu Ci was thoughtful. It seemed that because of the temple, although this first temple did not open up a new virtual world for him, it still connected with the virtual world given by heaven and earth.
Now inside the temple, he can instantly return to the virtual world.
Chu Ci smiled slightly and disappeared.
He was somewhat looking forward to seeing how the believers who came to worship would react when they saw the statue of the god when the temple was officially opened.
What Chu Ci didn't expect was that the first believer to worship came faster than he expected.
That night, in the virtual world, Chu Ci sensed that someone was praying to his statue, and it was an acquaintance.
In the prayer hall.
Song Bao knelt on the ground and prayed devoutly to the statue.
As an important participant and main funder in the construction of the temple, he is also one of the people who maintain the temple and comes to inspect the temple every day.
When he came yesterday, there was no statue of God in the prayer hall, but today there is such a majestic statue, which is undoubtedly the work of Lord Chu Shen.
So he dismissed the younger brother who came with him on the spot and began to pray to the statue.
But what disappointed Song Bao was that he had been kneeling and praying here for a long time, but there was no response from the statue.
Just when Song Bao was about to give up, the statue suddenly made a majestic sound.
