As the old monk continued ranting, he led Wang jun through the door, towards the guest room.
As they walked, Wang jun continued assessing his surroundings.
The temple looked small from outside but upon entering, it was surprisingly large! With him already having passed 4 rooms till he reached his destination.
"Little brother, you can stay in this room for tonight! I will go prepare some food for you, till then, you can use the bathroom at the end of this corridor to tidy yourself" saying this, the old monk turned around and left.
Looking at the vanishing figure of the monk, Wang jun sighed heavily, he had just used his detection eye on the old monk!.
It's results chilled his little heart.
[Demonic Monk, Red Moon Cardinal, Demonic cook, Fallen Dawn Pope....., Danger: True Death].
Looking at the sparkling 'True Death' character, Wang jun swallowed hard, taking deep breaths to calm his pounding heart.
He slightly opened the room door and peeked inside, not finding anything suspicious, he immediately entered, shutting the door behind him.
"Phew! Thanks to 'cold face', or a single stutter could have ended my precious little life." Wang jun muttered, as he wiped the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief.
He then shifted his attention to the dark panel that had been hovering in front of him since he had entered the temple.
[Main story line trigerred.....Main line Task issued]
[Main Line Task:
1) Disrupt the Ancient corruption ritual.
2) Rescue the God Spirit of Lady Aurora.
Note: Failure to complete any of the tasks results in instant death].
[Main Line Task Progress: 0%]
Looking at the two simple lines and the final note on the panel, Wang jun was left speechless.
"Nether boss, at least give me some more information to complete the Main tasks!! How are we newbies even supposed to survive, dammit!.'
[Ding...]
Just as Wang jun was cursing the Nether administrator for lack of details, the systems 'heavenly' voice sounded.
Wang jun immediately looked at the golden panel.
After reading through its content, he felt like kowtowing 300 times to its creator.
[History:Dawn Temple, as the resting place of one of the Fallen Ancient Gods, Goddess of Dawn, Aurora, is situated in the center of Ancient Holy World, closest to the 'World core' containing the world source.]
[It was personally guarded by the injured God Spirit of Lady Aurora, but falling prey to the 'Primodal Demons' devious scheme, she was captured and trapped by the three 'Red Moon' Popes combined forces. They have trapped the God Spirit of Lady Aurora under the Priomdal demon statue situated in the worship hall, slowly absorbing her dawn source to fuel the 'Corruption core'.]
[Due to its location, the Primodal Demon has chosen the Dawn Temple to perform the Ancient Corruption Ritual. All the native monks of the Dawn Temple have already been sacrificed by its followers]
[To divert the attention of other Primodal Gods, it has set a cover of large scale Moon sacrfices across the Ancient Holy World.]
[Guidance I: Host is recommended to destroy the 'Origin Crystal' embedded in Primodal demon statue' situated in worship hall.]
[Guidance II: Use the Mystery box]
Reading the final part of 'Guidance', Wang jun immeditaley remembered the final reward of his first spin.
He willed it and a small, glowing, purple box apperared in his vision.
[Type-I Mystery box (???)]
A line of words formed above the mystery box, (???) Particularly glowing, even his 'detection eye' couldn't discern any more information from it.
He bent slightly and touched the box, as soon as it came in contact with his hand, a bright yellow light flashed, illuminating his vision! And three small spheres of light burst forth from the box.
The spheres sparkled and three object fell to the ground with a 'thud' sound.
Wang jun used 'detection eye' on the three objects and lines of words formed above them.
[Lord Eternal's Rod(Mythical): Thick and Robust, strike while stroking and even Gods may fall.

Effect III: Doppelganger, creates a shadow clone bearing 50% of main body's attributes

Fang lui looked at the small needle, a vial of unknow white liquid and the ragged book on the ground with a peculiar expression.
Out of the three items, he first picked the strange needle.
Just as his hand came in contact, the needle enlarged, growing to the size of 2 meters.
Wang jun tried to pick it and found it surprisingly light, even lighter than his baseball bat, he could even adjust its size at will, he swung it around a bit to get a hang of it.
Next, he picked the tattered booklet, similar to the needle, it immediately flashed upon contact, enveloping Wang jun into sphere of light that lasted for a moment.
"...!!"
Wang jun opened his eyes, but felt nothing different, he immediately tried the doppelganger function.
'Shadow' he shouted internally.
The shadow beneath his feet wriggled, half of it forming into a human silhouette, its dark membrane slowly retracted, taking the appearance of Wang jun.
Wang jun's vision shifted and it suddenly descended into the shadow body, Wang jun felt as if he had grown two extra eyes, he moved around the room and didn't feel any kind of discomfort using the shadow body.
With a thought, his vision shifted again and he ones again returned to his own body. The shadow body immediately metled and entered his shadow.
Then, he closed his eyes and tried to exchange positions with his shadow and immediately found himself floating in a void, surrounded by darkness! With the only source of light being the firament above the void, through which he could see his shadow bodies feet and a small area of 2 meters around it.
Wang jun immediately became excited, this skill could very well be considered a second lifeline for him.
Calming himself, his returned to his inital spot.
Finally, Fang lui picked the small vial, filled with 'thick white liquid', uncorking it, a strange mushy stench filled the entire room.
'....ugh!!' Sniffing around, he almost vomited.
Gazing at the vial, his hand trembled a little, he almost cried! Just one look at the vial and his resolve to attain omnipotence and 'thank' his 'benefactor' amplified a hundred times.
