More importantly, this insect was given to him by the "Buddha of Joy".

The pink light emanating from the Buddha statue's brow turned him into the insect's host.

He entered the tutelage of the Buddha of Bliss and attained the divine position of the Buddha of Bliss.

But what exactly is this "divine position"?

Is it the insect itself, or what the insect represents?

A thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

The silicon-based beings in World Five were controlled by that monk with just a single sentence, and turned into his followers.

Now that he's been parasitized by this insect, has he also become a "believer" in some sense?

He looked down at his hands.

His hands were still his hands, and his skin was still his skin, but beneath the skin, there was a faint pink halo that was barely noticeable unless you looked closely.

He tried circulating his immortal power and found that his strength was indeed several times greater than before; his cultivation at the True God Realm was undeniable.

But this power came too easily, so easily that it made him uneasy.

"Benefactor Lin, congratulations on joining my Joyful Buddhism sect."

Miaozhen stood up from the ground, her face showing genuine joy.

"From this day forward, you will be the guardian deity of Huanxi Temple."

Once your divine position is completely stable, you can formally worship the Buddha of Bliss and receive the complete lineage.

"Guardian deities?"

Lin Mo looked up at her.

"right.

The guardian deities under the seat of the Buddha of Joy are responsible for guarding the temple and protecting the Buddhist community.

Although not as revered as the Buddha's position, it is still a legitimate divine position, blessed with divine authority.

Miaozhen explained it very carefully.

Lin Mo nodded without asking any further questions.

Just then, footsteps sounded outside.

The two turned around and saw a cold and beautiful nun dressed in a deep purple robe standing in the moonlight at the entrance of the temple.

The newcomer was none other than Senior Sister Miaochen!

She stood outside the threshold, her gaze passing over Miaozhen's shoulder and landing directly on Lin Mo's face.

"No wonder you were able to break through, Miaozhen; it turns out you found a man!"

Her voice wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear in the empty temple.

Miaozhen's body stiffened slightly, and the expression on her face quickly changed from gentle to her usual calm and aloof demeanor.

Miao Chen took a step forward and entered the temple.

Her gaze lingered on Miaozhen's face for a moment, then moved to Lin Mo, and then from Lin Mo to the golden lotus mark between Miaozhen's eyebrows that had not yet completely disappeared.

"Junior sister, you are very capable."

She quietly found a man, quietly attained the state of blissful meditation, and quietly entered the realm of the gods.

"If I hadn't been unable to sleep tonight and hadn't come to the temple for a stroll, I probably wouldn't have known that the temple had gained a guardian deity until my junior sister had completely devoured the lineage of the Joyful Buddha."

Her tone was calm, but every word she spoke precisely targeted Miaozhen's most vulnerable spot.

The temple has rules that all rare and precious materials must be handed over!

Not to mention he's a rare man!

"Why don't you hand it in?"

Miao Chen's voice suddenly turned cold, her tone changing from calm to questioning.

"Junior Sister, you must know the significance of men in the Land of Women."

How many disciples of Huanxi Temple are stuck at the peak of sainthood and cannot make any progress? How many disciples risk their lives to go to the Zimu River Secret Realm to find divine water? And how many disciples die on that road? Junior Sister must know all of this.

You found a man, but without reporting to the temple or the abbot, you secretly locked him in a bamboo hut for forty-nine days, broke through your own cultivation level, and then wanted to continue hiding?

Miaozhen, when did you become so selfish?

Miaozhen's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

Initially, she did intend to hand Lin Mo over to the temple after her breakthrough.

After all, such good things should be enjoyed by everyone.

But for some reason, after forty-nine days, she couldn't bear to part with it.

That reluctance to part was completely unreasonable, yet extremely intense.

Every time she thought about handing Lin Mo over to someone else, her chest felt like it was blocked by something, making her feel suffocated.

He even had the idea of ​​keeping it all to himself.

Unwilling to share with others.

Even if it violates the temple rules, even if she is discovered and punished by the abbot in the future, she does not want to hand Lin Mo over.

A murderous glint flashed in Miaozhen's eyes, but she quickly suppressed it.

If she killed Miaochen, although she could continue to conceal the fact that she had a man, she would definitely not be able to continue her cultivation at Huanxi Temple. She knew the temple's rules all too well.

Killing fellow disciples is a serious crime. She had witnessed the methods of Abbot Miaoyin more than once. The last senior sister who broke the precepts was stripped of her cultivation and expelled from the sect, and is still wandering in the wilderness at the foot of the mountain.

Moreover, in cultivating the divine path, each breakthrough requires a corresponding divine statue.

The statue of the Buddha of Joy is only found in the Joyful Temple. If you defect, it will be difficult to break through in the future. You will have to abandon the Joyful Zen and start cultivating other statues.

She couldn't bear to give up the arduous cultivation she had undergone for tens of thousands of years, nor could she afford to gamble with it.

Taking a deep breath to suppress her surging emotions, Miaozhen raised her head to meet Miaochen's gaze:

"What my senior sister said is true; I didn't think it through."

I'll hand it in to the host first thing tomorrow morning, so don't worry about it, senior sister.

Miao Chen stared at her for a long time, as if trying to determine how much truth was in her words.

After a moment, she nodded slightly, her gaze sweeping over Lin Mo's face, a look filled with greed and longing.

Then she turned around and walked toward the temple entrance, her deep purple monk's robe casting a long shadow in the moonlight.

She paused at the threshold, turned her head, and uttered a sentence:

"I hope my junior sister keeps her word."

Then her figure disappeared into the moonlight outside the door.

Lin Mo stood still, but his gaze remained fixed on Miao Chen's back.

He just noticed someone.

When Miao Chen entered, a figure followed behind her.

The figure stood in the shadows outside the temple gate, not entering, but Lin Mo's gaze swept across the entrance and caught its outline.

It was a completely black metallic body.

Silicon-based.

Lin Mo didn't know if this silicon-based individual was the same one who had been enslaved last time, or a new silicon-based individual.

After being knocked unconscious last time, he couldn't contact the other party when he woke up.

"Mr. Lin, I'm so sorry!"

Miaozhen bowed to Lin Mo.

She bent low, her greyish-white monk's robe spread out in front of her like a flattened lotus flower.

"It's alright, you were forced into it too!"

Lin Mo said he was fine, but he was actually a little uneasy.

Although the two nuns I've met so far are both very beautiful, one aloof and the other stunning, it's impossible for everyone in the entire Huanxi Temple to be beautiful!

If he were to meet the abbess tomorrow and she turned out to be an old nun with a face full of wrinkles, then he would feel a bit uncomfortable being called a "guardian deity."

But then I thought, I still have the system. If all else fails, I can just run away. This time, I did gain something.
