All the heavens begin with the mind-monkey.

Afterwards, Zhe Xingsun and Zheng Zha found an ancient altar in the shrine.

After watching for a while, they did not move the altar.

Because this altar was deeply connected to the ground, Chu Xuan glanced at the symbols on the altar through the camera, and then asked Saito Ichi for his opinion. The conclusion was that the symbols on the altar probably meant that the altar was used to suppress or seal something.

Since there is no one else in this city, it's not a bad thing to leave the altar in its current location until its function is determined and it is needed, or to keep it fixed in place.

When Zheng Zha and the others returned to the hotel, Chu Xuan and Saito were translating the materials that Zhe Xingsun had obtained from the church.

At this moment, Zhe Xingsun also saw what Zheng Zha and the others had obtained from the temple: a handwritten Buddhist scripture and several relics that looked like sarira.

These items were enshrined in a room in the backyard of the temple.

Zheng Zha said, "You don't know, when I first entered that temple, I felt the chill on my body disappear instantly. Later, when I found these relics and Buddhist scriptures, and got this thing, I felt like I was entering a warm hot spring. These two things can definitely counteract Kayako, or protect us when we enter the city."

Zhe Xingsun looked at the Buddhist scriptures and said, "This might be the same thing as the Buddhist scriptures in the original work."

Furthermore, the relic never appeared in the original story. It is possible that the monks of the temple kept something secret and did not give the truly precious thing to Zheng Zha and the others.

As for shrines and churches, they are not mentioned at all in the original work. It is unknown whether this is a plot change by the main god or a story that can be seen if the plot of the original work is explored in depth.

However, Zheng Zha and his group were already exhausted from dealing with Kayako and were unable to delve any deeper into the details behind her.

As for what happened afterward, Zheng Zha and the others were traumatized by Kayako and refused to return to the Ju-on world to complete any missions, so those buried stories were buried forever.

Chu Xuan said, "If what you say is true, then the temple is likely a place similar to a safe house, where one can go in to take refuge in times of danger."

Zheng Zha said, "Why don't we hide there now? After all, Kayako wouldn't dare to attack us directly from that place."

But Chu Xuan shook his head and said, "That's impossible."

Seeing the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, Chu Xuan said, "The task assigned to us by the Supreme God wouldn't involve setting up such an obvious safe house. I'm at least 90% sure that the safe house will lose its protective function at some point. Besides, we need to complete the mission in the mortal world, and leaving here now would be very inconvenient."

Hearing this, Zheng Zha gave up his plan.

Next, while Chu Xuan and Saito Hajime were discussing matters, the newlyweds were not idle either.

Several newcomers surrounded Li Shuaixi. Although this veteran seemed to have a bad relationship with the other veterans in the Zhongzhou team, they might be able to get some information from him.

Lu Renjia looked at Li Shuaixi, who had willow-leaf eyebrows, wore light makeup, and was completely hidden in a cloak, took a deep breath, and said, "I would like to ask for some information."

Li Shuaixi smiled coldly, looking at everyone without bothering to respond.

Lu Renjia said, "If we successfully return to the Main God Space, we can pay some intelligence fees."

Upon hearing this, Li Shuaixi pondered for a moment, then nodded and asked, "What do you want to ask?"

Lu Renjia then said, "We want to know some things about Sun Wukong. We heard he came to the Central Continent Team from the last horror movie, but now it seems he's completely a key player for the team."

Upon hearing this, Li Shuaixi fell into reminiscence. After a moment's thought, he said directly, "If I return to the Main God Space, I want 2000 reward points."

These words immediately silenced Lu Renjia.

2000 reward points was a huge number for him.

Ordinary newcomers can get a minimum of 1000 reward points for completing the tasks given by the main god. If it weren't for the side quest they received this time to investigate the eternal world, 2000 reward points would have been the reward points that the main god would only give them after completing two horror movies.

Even with this side quest, 2000 reward points were still too much for him; it would be absolutely impossible for him to do it all by himself.

After a moment's thought, Lu Renjia said, "We can use some other intelligence to offset part of the cost."

Li Shuaixi said, "You tell me first."

Lu Renjia felt that Li Shuaixi was a very difficult person to get along with, no wonder he had such a strained relationship with the Zhongzhou team.

However, he still said, "We received a side quest worth 5000 reward points, and there's also a B-level side storyline. Anyone who completes the side quest will receive these rewards. Moreover, the other veterans in the Central Continent Team have already accepted this quest."

Upon hearing this, Li Shuaixi's mind raced, and he said, "Alright, 1000 reward points. I can tell you about the horror movie that's coming out, as well as news related to Sun Wukong."

1000 reward points were still a bit expensive for Lu Renjia and his group. After discussing it for a while, they gritted their teeth and agreed. After all, it was news about Sun Wukong, and if they could figure it out, it would be of great benefit to them.

Afterwards, Li Shuaixi talked about what he knew about Sun Wukong from the horror movie he had just seen.

After hearing this, Lu Renjia and the others said excitedly, "So, in reality, Sun Wukong and those veterans from the Central Continent Team aren't that familiar with each other? It's just that the people from the Central Continent Team knew Sun Wukong first, and they might even be using him."

Everyone became excited.

Looking at the newcomers, Li Shuaixi knew they were up to some bad idea, but he didn't care.

For him, the incident where Sun Wukong killed Kayako with a single blow had already made him realize the gap between himself and his opponent.

Even so, he did not give up.

Since the same number of reward points still resulted in a vast difference in power between him and Sun Wukong after redeeming them at the main god's place, he decided to use more reward points to redeem more side quests and corresponding enhancements.

In a world like the Main God Space, as long as you survive, there is always hope.

Li Shuaixi felt a little regretful. Back in the Main God Square, he had secretly opened some doors and overheard Chu Xuan talking about some things related to exchanges. So he directly exchanged for the Sunflower Manual to cultivate, and afterwards his strength was greatly improved.

Chu Xuan must know more about the main god, but unfortunately he didn't hear any of it.

Li Shuaixi walked away on his own, and went straight to Chu Xuan, saying, "I want to see that letter."

Chu Xuan, who was still translating documents, heard Li Shuaixi's words and replied without turning his head, "That's a mission that corresponds to 5,000 reward points and a B-level side quest. We've all accepted this mission, which proves I'm quite confident I can complete it. Given your current relationship with us, why do you think I should let you accept this side quest and get a free reward?"

At this moment, the experienced members around also gathered around, and they also noticed the conversation between Li Shuaixi and Chu Xuan.

Considering the conflict between the two, Zheng Zha planned to try to stop them if they started fighting later. To be precise, he needed to be wary of Li Shuaixi suddenly stabbing Chu Xuan with his sword.

Although Arno was standing beside Chu Xuan, remaining vigilant, even if Li Shuaixi suddenly attacked, he would definitely be stopped.

Zhe Xingsun was also watching from a short distance away. With his keen hearing, he could hear everything that was happening in the hotel.

"What conditions do you want to propose?" Li Shuaixi asked Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan responded bluntly, "It's simple. If you want to accept this side quest, then you also need to contribute in the process of completing it. It's impossible for you to accept the quest, sit on the sidelines, and wait for us to finish it so you can enjoy the reward points and side story content. What do you think?"

Li Shuaixi said coldly, "It sounds fair and just, but how am I supposed to know what you want me to do? If it's like in that horror movie, where I'm sent as bait to my death, do you think I'd agree?"

Chu Xuan said, "It's alright, we can discuss the details of the mission later."

After thinking for a moment, Li Shuaixi agreed, and Chu Xuan handed the letter to Li Shuaixi.

After reviewing it, Li Shuaixi returned it; he had already accepted the side quest.

Time passed slowly, and by evening, Chu Xuan and Saito Hajime had finally finished translating a portion of the documents.

The reason I don't say all of them is because most of the materials are highly specialized knowledge in metaphysics or mysticism, and Saito and his team could only understand a few of them.

Chu Xuan said, "The situation is now basically clear. According to the existing information, this city dates back to the Heian period, and at that time it was one of the entrances to the Eternal World."

"As the Heian period ended and the mysterious power faded, the city gradually became ordinary. Then, as Japan began to communicate with the outside world, some mysterious forces from the outside world entered the city and became curious about the Tokoyo (the world of the dead), thus joining in their research on it. However, their research seemed to have violated some taboo, the most direct result of which was that at dusk, some people would be randomly teleported into the Tokoyo, a phenomenon known in Japan as Shinkaku (divine disappearance)."

"As the number of people who have disappeared from the world grows and the scale of their activities expands, those mysterious forces have also begun to gather mysterious forces from within Japan to build an altar that seals the Eternal World. However, it now seems that the altar has most likely encountered problems. If we want to investigate the reason for the unusual changes in the Eternal World altar, we must go deep into the Eternal World and find the location of the altar to investigate."

Zheng Zha asked curiously, "Where is the altar?"

Chu Xuan said, "Actually, it's located at the same shrine you investigated during the day, except it's located within the Tomorrow Shrine."
