Chapter 409: Saints
So, are there any believers who have been able to firmly believe in a certain god in their lives?
The answer, of course, is yes!
The last two people on the scale of faith, fanatics and saints, are like this.
The biggest difference between the latter and the former is that in addition to being able to unswervingly and fanatically believe in a certain god, the saint will also spend his life practicing the way of the god he believes in.
In the end, the saints and the gods can be said to be almost completely one.
Tongues do not expect to be able to have saint-level believers. If there is a certain chance of fanatical believers, then saints are really unattainable.
In terms of the amount of faith power that can be provided, the amount of faith power that a hundred shallow believers can provide every day is roughly equivalent to that of one true believer. And a thousand true believers can provide as much faith as one fanatic believer every day.
As for the saints, it was already enough to give birth to one that would make the gods rejoice, even sending down an oracle for the faithful of the church to celebrate for three days.
The value of a saint no longer lies in the power of faith that he can provide, but in his ability to become a new incarnation of the gods, and to be able to carry a part of the authority of the gods and walk in the heavens.
What is the authority of the gods?
Naturally, it is the priesthood.
If the Godhead is the root of a god, then the priesthood is the authority that a god can have in the world in which he lives.
Without this authority, the gods are just ordinary transcendents with no divine powers, no different from mortals with power.
But after having the authority of the priesthood, the gods are different.
A god with a priesthood can easily suppress transcendents who have the same level of power as him, or even a higher level of power, in the world he has profes.
In this respect, gods and wizards are very similar. A wizard who takes the path of the Lord of the World is also invincible in his world.
It's just that the former is different from the latter in that it is difficult for the gods to monopolize a world because of the relationship between the priesthood, and they can only share it with other gods.
However, the sorcerer who has become the master of the world can have the power of life and death of an entire world.
Of course, there is really no comparison between the two. Because any world that can give birth to gods must be a high-level plane with complete rules and order.
Such a world, even in front of wizards, they can't control it.
Unless it's something like the fire elemental plane, there is only a single regular special plane. However, such a plane is much less valuable than a normal plane world, and it is unlikely that any wizard would choose this plane as the foundation of his wizarding path.
Moving away from the topic, let's move on to the question of the saints.
As the saint goes deeper and deeper on the path of believing in the gods, the distance between him and the gods he believes in becomes closer and closer, until in the end, he completely loses his independent consciousness and becomes a part of the gods he believes in.
From this point of view, isn't the fate of the saints terrifying?
After all, freedom is the innate pursuit of every living being, and after becoming a saint, you may lose this right.
But for the mad believers in the gods, becoming a saint is a dream thing.
The fact that a tongue has no faith, or that he believes only in himself or in the truth, does not mean that he does not understand the minds of believers.
Just knowing and understanding, the dialect itself will never choose to be such a person.
However, he was envious of the gods who could have saints.
Doppelganger is a very high-end technology. It seems simple to create a Sen Luo clone without looking at the dialect, but this is only the result of his chance. It is extremely difficult to change to another wizard of the same rank, or even a transcendent of the same rank of other professions.
After all, doppelgangers are advanced knowledge involving the soul level, and in the heavens and worlds, except for a very few races that are good at playing with souls, few people will be willing to create doppelgangers on a large scale.
Every time a doppelganger is made, it means that part of one's soul origin will be cut off, and if there is no special means, just restoring the loss of the soul is an extremely vast and cumbersome project.
And the gods have a unique advantage in this regard.
A clerical clone, even if it requires a saint to rely on, is much less expensive than cutting off the soul to create a clone.
The gods don't even have to pay any price, they just need to place their consciousness and a piece of priesthood in the bodies of the saints.
When practicing the path of the gods, the constitution of the saints has been gradually transformed to be completely in tune with the gods, and there will be no rejection.
And what they got was a powerful clone that could have a strength comparable to their own strength without having to re-cultivate.
Compared to other transcendents, the clones that still need to have their souls cut off and spend a lot of resources to re-cultivate for a long time before they can come in handy, it can be said that it is simply too cost-effective.
But the corresponding difficulty is the birth of saints. Even if it is a high deity, the number of saints that can be born among the believers under his command is generally not more than one palm.
……
The darts team is on the road again.
The people around them are still the same as before, but at this moment, their attitudes towards dialects are completely different.
But after just staying for a while, the dialect was a little unbearable.
He thought that his cheeks had been cultivated enough, but when he saw a circle of people around him, who had been staring at him with god-like eyes, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable for a while.
So, after casually finding an excuse that fate was over, Fang Yan shamefully disappeared, leaving only another burst of amazement from the dart masters who looked up at his disappearing figure in the sky.
After Fang Yan left the sight of everyone in the dart team, he discerned the direction a little and headed towards the goal he had set before.
