Then, with practiced ease, he brought out offerings like incense and candles, and made a bow towards the stars.
"Thank you, Moon God!"
"I will surely offer incense to you every day in the future."
The billowing incense smoke rose directly into the sky, incredibly containing an exceptionally pure golden merit within the seemingly white smoke.
It was caught by Li Ye from within the divine temple.
"Oh."
"The merit within is so pure."
Although he himself possessed quite a bit of merit, he found that this tiny amount of merit was on par in quality with his own.
In fact... it seemed slightly better than his merit.
The long-waited Silver Toad immediately chimed in to explain:
"Because it was exchanged by that mortal with his own life."
"You must know, the poor have to pay a higher price to do good deeds. He sacrificed his life to do good deeds, so the merit he gains is much purer than those rich families who donate roads and bridges."
"Because he truly has a life to offer."
