No matter how many martial artists there were in the True Martial Sect, they were not as many as the anomalous creatures that could be seen everywhere in the deep mountains and forests, especially some anomalous creatures controlled by the Heavenly Demons. They were extremely cunning and basically would not fight a martial artist head-on. After the martial artists left, they would appear again and cause trouble. They would treat mortals as food and devour them completely.
However, it was said that a mortal family had enshrined the longevity tablet and portrait of the Heavenly Venerable Demon Vanquishing. In an incident where they were attacked by an anomalous creature, their pious beliefs were responded to. The Heavenly Venerable Demon Vanquishing in the portrait appeared and killed the anomalous creature that entered the house with lightning speed on the spot before returning to the portrait. From then on, his family had never been attacked by any anomalous creature. Even the chronic illness of coughing for many years was cured.
This matter spread like wildfire. In addition, the appearance of the Heavenly Venerable Demon Vanquishing happened in many places. Therefore, the faith of mortals became more and more pious.
After decades, it had actually evolved into festivals. They would worship the Heavenly Venerable Demon Vanquishing wantonly. There was a Heavenly Venerable statue at the door and a Heavenly Venerable paper cut on the windowsill.
Even homeless beggars, as long as they were pious, could enter the Heavenly Venerable temple to worship with the nobles and wealthy merchants.
At this moment, at the top of Mingcang Mountain, in the Demon Vanquishing Hall of the True Martial Sect, Han Zhao was sitting cross-legged on a mat in the middle of the hall. His expression was gentle and solemn, and divine light appeared around him.
Suddenly, Han Zhao’s expression changed. He pretended to glare angrily, and a slight fluctuation of Faith Power appeared around him.
A moment later, Han Zhao’s expression returned to normal and he slowly opened his eyes.
At this moment, a faint golden thread appeared out of thin air in front of him. The thread was surrounded by purple-gold fog.
“As expected, your faith has become more pious.” Han Zhao smiled faintly. Every time he responded to his believers, his faith would become more pious.
Among the many authorities of the divine status of the [Heavenly Emperor], there was one ability, and that was ‘Divine Descent’.
As long as the believer encountered danger in the place where his longevity tablet and statue were enshrined and his faith was pious enough, he could manifest his clone through the Divine Descent and help the believer tide over the crisis.
Of course, the prerequisite was that there was enough incense Faith Power accumulated in the longevity tablet or statue. This was because Divine Descent required the consumption of the Faith Power of Incense.
The strength of the clone completely depended on the amount of Faith Power of Incense offerings.
In addition, when the believers made wishes on his longevity tablet and statue, if they were pious enough and worshiped him from time to time with enough incense offerings and Faith Power, Han Zhao could use the power of incense offerings and Faith Power to grant their wishes.
For example, recovering from illnesses, doing well in examinations, having many children, and so on.
The Faith Power of Incense could cure all the terminal illnesses of the common people. It could even treat the illnesses of cultivators. It only depended on how much Faith Power of Incense was consumed.
With that, he could be considered to have taken it for the people and used it for the people.
Of course, the prerequisite was that the consumption was less than the Faith Power paid by a single person.
For example, the faith of a scholar. The Faith Power could only make his mind clearer during the exam, his thoughts more agile, and he would not be nervous or sick. In the end, whether he could get in or not depended on his own standards.
As for having more children, it was also using the Faith Power of incense to nourish the other party’s body. Whether he could have more children or have more blessings depended on himself.
All in all, faith was only an auxiliary. After all, the premise of Han Zhao broadcasting faith was to benefit.
However, even if faith was not omnipotent, ordinary people would still flock to it.
This was because, in this era, social class was very fixed. Other than practicing martial arts, the only thing that could change one’s fate was studying.
However, unless one was extremely talented and was chosen by a martial arts school, the descendants of ordinary families might not have the chance to learn martial arts even if their aptitude was middle-grade.
As for studying and becoming an official, it was even more complicated. There were more than a billion mortals, so how many official positions could the Great Qin Empire have?
When hard work could not change the fate of ordinary people, they could only pray to God.
Before Han Zhao spread his faith, there were countless evil sects wreaking havoc in some remote places. The White Lotus Sect, Fragrant Candle Sect, Longevity Sect, and other sects were all fooling the mortals at the bottom.
And Han Zhao had really fulfilled all his requests!
As long as he was pious enough and provided enough Faith Power of Incense, he was a god to mortals! He was omnipotent!
Not only that, if a cultivator’s faith was pious, he could also respond.
Just now, he had directly used the Divine Descent to help a Divine Power Realm martial artist escape the encirclement of a powerful enemy. That was because the other party’s faith was extremely pious and respected him like a god. Furthermore, because of his cultivation level, the quality of the Faith Power of Incense provided was extremely high. At the same time, the other party was a disciple of the True Martial Sect and could provide more Faith Power of Incense in the future. Therefore, Han Zhao used a lot of Faith Power of Incense to save him.
Of course, the higher the level of a cultivator, the harder it was for them to be devout. Although the quality of the Faith Power of Incense provided would be very high, the quantity would be much lower.
On the contrary, the quality of the Faith Power of Incense provided by the vast number of mortals was very low, but the quantity was astonishing.
“It seems that even in the Origin World, I have to walk the path of the masses.” Han Zhao couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. To the God of Incense, he needed a lot.
High-grade cultivators had more power of faith than gods. They would only become devout believers when needed.
“However, as long as one’s realm isn’t high enough, there will be times when they can’t solve the problem.” Han Zhao smiled faintly. Now that there was a huge battle, it was the best time to broadcast faith and harvest Faith Power. Furthermore, according to the original timeline, this battle with the foreign races had lasted for hundreds of years, giving him enough time.
“It’s time to deal with the Heavenly Demons!”
Han Zhao stood up. Now, through the power of the [Heavenly Emperor] divine status, he had already steadily obtained the strength of the Emperor Realm. Previously, he was afraid that he would provoke the Nine Nether Heavenly Demon if he acted early. Now, he was not afraid of even a sixth-grade Heavenly Demon. Furthermore, if he wanted to obtain a simulation opportunity, he had to hunt high-grade Heavenly Demons.
