Chapter 318: Chapter 10 Xuanyang Supreme Deity, Spreading the Path of Faith!
Since his arrival in this world, where he could send avatars, he had no intention of spending a long time to establish a religion.
Stealing an existing one was clearly the optimal choice.
Not only could he gain the ready-made Power of Faith, but also inherit its centuries of legacy.
Moreover, he had some insights into the nature of faith.
Taking a step forward, he placed his hand on the statue under the uncomprehending gazes of the crowd.
Boom! Rumbling!!
A thunderclap sounded as if it arose from within the hearts of the many elder Taoists.
Subsequently, their consciousness stalled, and their vision endlessly ascended.
They transcended mountains and stars, until they were beyond this world.
An embodiment cloaked in infinite divine radiance appeared before their eyes.
The divine figure was too majestic, too splendid; despite straining their eyes, they could still not discern a ten-thousandth or even a millionth of it.
But at the very moment they glimpsed this divine shadow, they already knew its true name.
"Praise be, the most exalted Divine Lord of Exorcism with Mysterious Yang and Subtle Elements!"
"Praise be, the Xuanyang Supreme Deity."
The multitude called out, and that mighty deity seemed to detect something.
A strand of divine light traversed the void, cascading down upon their aged forms.
"Go! Go on!"
Within the main hall, the many elder Taoists opened their eyes, looking excitedly towards the Divine Statue and the figure with its back to them.
The excitement on their faces was devoid of any falsehood.
One by one, they knelt on both knees and bowed to the statue.
"Praise be, the Xuanyang Supreme Deity!"
Indeed, the divine truly existed; the records in the Taoist Scripture were without error; immortality was not a fantasy.
...
At the Mount Taibai Range, outside Loulan Mountain.
People held their umbrellas, waiting quietly.
Suddenly, a tourist pointed towards the mountain peak with one hand, his expression filled with indescribable excitement.
"A god! A Deity!!"
A beam of red light rose from the Xuanyang Temple on Loulan Mountain.
Like an unrivaled divine sword, it instantly cleaved the thick clouds, halting the rainfall.
Then, it spread to the surroundings, coloring the Mount Taibai Range, imparting warmth and relaxation to all beings, like being embraced by a mother.
Even the short-statured Ghost Subduer felt an ease coursing through his body, as if the ghosts’ erosion of his flesh had vanished at that moment.
"There truly are deities between heaven and earth," murmured the diminutive Ghost Subduer.
Next to him stood a tall young man, relaxed, with eyes burning fervently towards Loulan Mountain.
It seemed that they, the pitiful ones, could indeed survive, could be saved.
As everyone was relishing the sensation just experienced, the red glow became increasingly bright and dazzling.
A blurry figure, towering over mountains and crowning the sky, appeared before all beings.
The moment the figure emerged,
grass, stones, insects, fish, animals—everything in the world—gently quivered, making a murmuring sound that resonated through heaven and earth.
"Praise be, the most exalted Divine Lord of Exorcism with Mysterious Yang and Subtle Elements!"
All things shouted, the multitude called out, and at that moment, the blurry figure became more concentrated, clearer.
At this moment, even humans, as the most capable beings on earth, chose to kneel and bow their heads.
Liang Hui, through his ethereal shadow, observed everything that was happening within the Tai Bai Mountain Range.
He withdrew his arm from the statue, his gaze profound.
"Praise be, Divine Emperor!"
He stimulated a modicum of the Power of Faith to shock the beings of this world.
To firmly confirm the existence of gods and Buddhas in the Xuanyang Taoist Temple.
Next, was to nurture the fruits, in preparation for the final harvest.
He turned around!
Facing the many elder Taoists who had fallen to their knees.
"Ghosts and goblins will emerge, creating havoc for all living beings; the Emperor, unable to bear this, has sent me to walk among the mortals to spread the Great Law, leading all beings across the bitter sea of suffering."
Like the tolling of a great bell, each word imprinted itself deeply into the hearts of the crowd, unforgettable.
Looking at the increasingly devout and excited elders before him,
Liang Hui no longer hesitated. He extended his hand, smoothing the wrinkles on his robe.
"The Emperor is merciful, proficient in the Scriptures; the devout may become Taoist Children, endowed with power granted by the Emperor."
"To be the adversary of a hundred."
...
Taoist Child, Taoist, Demon Exorcism Taoist, Taoist Sect, Sect Master.
The cultivation system, simplistic to the extreme, was then announced by Liang Hui.
The core of this system has only three aspects.
Devotion! Subduing ghosts! Faith!
The more devoted you are, the more faith you contribute, the greater the power that is returned to you.
The more ’ghosts’ you save (offered to the Xuanyang Supreme Deity), the greater the power you receive in return.
Thus, this system is utterly deformed, depending entirely on Liang Hui himself.
It holds even greater control than the Spiritual Power system of the Guangxi Realm.
Of course, after Liang Hui obtains the desired Great Law from this world, he would inevitably return the so-called source of power back to the ’Xuanyang Supreme Deity’.
The elderly Taoists at the foot of the stairs listened as if bewitched, even if some words contradicted the Scriptures.
It must have been the ancestors who remembered incorrectly.
Time passed, and night fell.
Only then did the discourse come to an end.
Qing Xu, the Temple Master of the temple, stood up and bowed again.
"Teacher, must Demon Exorcism Taoists seal a ghost within their bodies to convert it, or is there another way?"
How could these old arms and legs, people who have spent their lives studying the Scriptures,
go and fight those regular ghosts? It would be like sending lambs to the slaughter.
"Besides this, there is no other way," Liang Hui said indifferently.
His gaze looked forward, through the walls, to the beings standing outside the Taoist Temple, waiting earnestly.
"Qing Xu, the Xuanyang Emperor is merciful and willing to ferry the living beings. Let them come back after seven days to pay homage," he said.
"At that time, the temple will widely accept disciples, pass on the Great Law, and carry the living beings across the bitter sea."
"The Emperor is merciful! Teacher is merciful!"
Qing Xu spoke and then walked back.
The many elderly Taoists also left the main hall, following the indications of a young man.
Liang Hui consequently sat cross-legged on the cushion and closed his eyes in contemplation.
Granting seven days was to attract almost all of the Ghost Subduers in this world.
All these were manifest Great Laws of considerable value to him.
As for keeping the promise and drawing only the Way of the Five Elements, what a joke.
...
Outside the world, in the void,
Two cloud beds made of starlight occupied millions of miles in the void.
Figures that looked like both gods and demons sat cross-legged on the cloud beds, confronting each other.
Ah!
A sound of surprise.
The void boiled, endless silver light pervaded, stirring the vast mist.
"Fellow Daoist has quite the skill, to bypass the world and descend upon this realm," Tian Fu said while clapping his hands, his voice calm.
He would inevitably notice such a huge change happening in the world below.
"My skills are, of course, not lacking," Liang Hui replied as he picked up his cup of tea and took a sip.
Then, he slowly tilted the tea cup, pouring it out.
Rumble!
A galaxy emerged from the void.
In a flash, it transformed into a multicolored river, rushing forward, washing away all the silver-white luster.
Tian Fu watched the approaching multicolored river, extended his hand, and pressed down gently.
Boom!
The multicolored river, spreading across a million miles, crumbled in an instant, turning into droplets of water scattering through the void.
Tian Fu withdrew his hand.
"Such a boring provocation. Isn’t that enough?"
"Wu Shan, I only want the Way of Fortune and nothing else."
"Heh, fortune?"
"Of course, you can have it. With three thousand Great Laws, how could I monopolize them all?"
Liang Hui chuckled lightly, his hand wiping his damp sleeve.
...
Within the Taoist Temple on Loulan Mountain, Qingcang reached out his hand and grasped the droplet that appeared out of nowhere.
A grin spread across his face.
"The final piece is in place!"
