Chapter 469: Test of Faith
Regarding belief in becoming a god, Gu Shang already knew something about it before coming to this world.
In the many worlds he has experienced, he also knows many successful cases.
By accumulating merit, practitioners allow mortals or some living beings to forcibly worship themselves. In this extreme worship, a large amount of power of faith will be born.
The power of faith is an extremely peaceful force. From a certain perspective, it can be used as any force in the world and can manifest all matter.
The specific power of faith to become a god is related to one's own faith.
The more believers you have, the stronger your power will be, and it is difficult to be completely wiped out. As long as someone believes in you, you will get a glimmer of hope.
Similarly, if no one believes in you, then all the power of faith in you and everything you have accumulated before will disappear.
Success is also about faith, failure is also about faith.
Similar to the incense in Journey to the West, this thing is very important to the gods.
According to the memory of the old monk, there are many gods of faith in this world, but their power is relatively weak, and no one of them has grown to the strongest level.
The most powerful thing is only the Mahayana period.
Mainly because why should others believe in you? What strength do you have to make others believe in you unconditionally?
No matter which world people are in, they are extremely practical. I will thank you when it is useful. If you are no longer useful, why should I trust you?
Just like when Gu Shang had the power of the dragon and tested his merits for the first time.
His purpose was to bring wind and rain to the local people and provide them with various blessings, so he allowed that group of people to build an ancestral hall for him and worship him every day, every month, every year.
If you do nothing, no one will write to you.
Not only that, in this world, if your followers develop to a certain scale, they will be suppressed by orthodox practitioners.
After all, everyone has come up through hardship and practice. It is really unfair that you are the only one who relies on spreading your faith and improving your strength.
This is indeed a shortcut, but it is a shortcut that is hated by all practitioners who have tried hard.
So much so that the path of belief in becoming a god is extremely difficult in the world of cultivation.
Most of those religious gods are hiding in every corner, managing their own one-third of an acre of land.
The main reason why they are so persistent is that belief in God can lead to immortality. As long as someone believes in you and gives you the power of faith, you can use this power of faith to maintain your youthful appearance and your life will always be fresh.
Isn’t the purpose of practicing hard to live forever? Now that there is a better way, why does it still take so long to meditate, fight with people, and plunder resources?
All in all, the path of spiritual practice and faith in this world are very strange.
After thinking about it for a while, Gu Shang already had a rough plan for the next road.
As he had thought before, these two paths can be carried out at the same time. After his power completely crushes everyone in the world, he can spread his beliefs on a large scale and let everyone believe in him, thus becoming The most powerful god of faith.
His eyes moved and he looked at the monks next to him.
At this moment, these people have become his capable subordinates, all of whom are in the Dongxu stage. Although this kind of cultivation is not the strongest, it still has some effect in the Blue Star Sea.
It can be said to be the mainstay of every department!
"You can continue to guard here. You can initially spread some of my faith and use your power to develop some believers."
Gu Shang said.
"Master plans to follow the path of belief and becoming a god?"
The old monk asked in disbelief.
He has lived in the human world for so many years and is quite familiar with these things. This is not a path that a monster can go far! !
The contradiction between monsters and humans is already acute. As long as you make some achievements in this area, you will be suppressed by the entire human race.
"That's right, having too many skills is not overwhelming."
After explaining casually, Gu Shang repeated it to them.
As the Blood God, these people naturally carry out his orders unconditionally.
"How many followers does the master plan to develop?"
The old monk asked.
When the leader conveys an order to you, it is best to ask clearly in advance. Otherwise, if you do not do well or do it incorrectly, then it will be your own problem. How could it be that the leader did not make it clear when he said it?
Gu Shang snapped his fingers, and then transmitted a simple message to his mind.
"First try my method. If possible, transform all the monsters in the entire city."
Under normal circumstances, his blood lipids will obey him unconditionally, and he will naturally believe in him unconditionally. In this way, he can easily gain a large number of believers.
Others may need to perform miracles to gain followers, sell their hearts for many years, and put in all kinds of blood and sweat, but Gu Shang is different. As long as one drop of blood is given, the other party will become someone completely loyal to him.
His transformation is a complete physical ability, not a contract or elixir. The other party is completely subject to his inner choice.
If it can really continue like this, then the speed at which his strength will increase will be unimaginable!
"Master, please rest assured that we will definitely give you a satisfactory result within three days!"
The old monk kept his words in mind and spoke firmly.
"Take your time, I believe you."
After giving the order, he left immediately.
When he appeared in front of Shanhu again, he found that the little girl was looking at some small things on the roadside.
Most of them were food made from the sea.
There were both meat and vegetarian food.
After deep processing of some monsters, they exuded a fragrance and looked good.
"Buy some if you like."
Gu Shang patted his shoulder.
It was really weird. Most of the monsters he drew before were used as tools, but for some reason, Shanhu gave him the feeling that he was raising a pet or a daughter.
"Really, Daddy!!!"
Hearing him say so domineeringly, Shanhu suddenly became excited.
"Do as you say, I will pay for everything here."
Anyway, the whole city belongs to the old monk, and of course it belongs to him. If you want something, just take it directly.
The old monk will help him deal with all obstacles in secret.
Shanhu excitedly broke into the shops on the street and started to buy like crazy.
However, this kind of purchase does not cost money, and the shop owners are also happy to let him choose and recommend...
This gentleman is not simple, the city lord has just come over to remind him that he must treat him well.
