True Challenge

Wang Wei looked at all the destruction around thinking about what just occurred. He checked the Karmic Sin on his body, but unfortunately, no matter what he did, it could not be removed or even sealed away.

He tried using Wu Hong's Scripture to at least place a temporary seal on it but it was no use. And after studying it a while, he realized the crux of the issue:

Incense.

In general, faith or incense is not as karmic binding as Qi Luck, most likely because of its transactional nature. Mortals pray to the gods and offered them incense, and in return, the gods provide them with aid, spiritual substance, and a paradise for their afterlife.

Compared to a sovereign who has to constantly keep its people happy and prosperous to retain a dynasty's luck, the power of incense is less Karmicly Binding.
