The feeling is familiar. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Before leaving the Golden Tree Secret Realm that day, when he broke the Heavenly Ladder with a sword of Heavenly Dao Remnant Style, with the sword intent and the rules of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, he entered an extremely short "omniscient state";

At the moment when he ascended to the throne, the concept of "little self" had disappeared from Lu Qiming's consciousness. The huge throne, the majestic temple, the whole palace city, and even this heaven and earth - all became a part of him. He was able to feel the presence of everything, like the meticulous perception of his own body during meditation.

However, the majestic feeling of connecting with the vast world did not bring Lu Qiming even a trace of satisfaction; on the contrary, the scene unfolding in Lu Qiming's consciousness only made him feel cold all over his body-

Above the endless sea of clouds, Lu Qiming "saw" countless kneeling creatures! Millions, tens of millions or more, he couldn't count them at all, as if all the spiritual beings in the entire Middle Continent had gathered under the divine seat!

The figures of all living beings are illusory, and they will dissipate with the wind almost the next moment. They seemed to be praying sincerely, but the strange thing was that all Lu Qiming could see was a blank face, and all the creatures had exactly the same expression, like puppets who had lost their consciousness.

For Lu Qiming, who was in a state of omniscience, he easily found the nearest Xiao Dizi, Sheng Yucheng and Red Lady in the crowd; soon, Lu Xingzhi, Lu Zai, Lin Zhaoyu, and even Lu Fengshan, who had entered the Mystery Realm, were among them, and farther in the East China Sea, Lu Qiming saw Qin Yuefeng's face......

- These were all the people he knew best, but at this moment, their expressions all became terrifyingly strange.

Lu Qiming used the fastest speed to break free from the omniscient state brought by the Divine Throne, Huo Ran stood up and looked at the stone man in shock: "What the hell is this doing?!"

The stone man said flatly: "Gather strength." ”

Lu Qiming's eyes were slightly cold, and he said, "Just from them?"

Shi Daodao: "Yes." ”

Lu Qiming's heart slowly sank. He thought, he already knew what this power the stone man had gathered was.

The Power of Faith.

In his previous life, when he was in the Chengyuan Sect, he had heard Master talk about this kind of power - the god of the world is in charge of the Heavenly Dao, maintaining the order of the world, and the world is flourishing and endless. The gods bestow endless blessings on sentient beings, and sentient beings return the power of faith.

Therefore, according to the normal order, it should be the blessing of the gods first, so that the power of faith will naturally arise, and then feed back the power of the gods.

However, in that world, in a world where everyone covets the position of God, there are cultivators with unscrupulous minds who come up with the evil way of "forcibly collecting the power of faith", and try to steal the power that originally belonged to the gods through this "shortcut" - although this will not be recognized by the Heavenly Dao in the end, it is undeniable that individual rebels who steal the divine power have indeed obtained power beyond mortals, which has led to the frenzy of violent plundering of the power of faith in that world after the death of the Chengyuan God, and many so-called names have swarmedA special practitioner of "false gods".

It's just that that period of history was tragic but extremely short. Because forcibly plundering the power of faith is essentially a dangerous and evil sacrificial ritual.

The unrestrained plundering of the "false gods" and their inability to respond to the prayers of the sacrificers like the real gods inevitably caused irreparable damage to the ordinary people who had been deprived of the power of faith for a long time, and countless innocent people died as a result, and the "false gods" themselves were destroyed one by one due to the karma brought about by their sins.

Soon, "false gods" and "power of faith" became the most taboo words in the hearts of the people at that time, and all the methods of sacrifice that could be found were completely destroyed. By the time Lu Qiming was practicing, everything had already been reduced to brief words in the history books, and he had only heard about it, and it was impossible for him to have the opportunity to feel the power of faith in person.

Lu Qiming never thought that Shi Ren's so-called "helping him improve his strength" would actually use this method!

Lu Qiming closed his eyes and said in a normal tone as much as possible: "If you do this, senior...... It is indeed to help me, so please stop doing this as soon as possible. ”

Hearing this, the stone man's expression was instantly complicated. He stood under the throne, looked up at the young man's determined eyes, and was silent for a moment.

However, just as Lu Qiming was quickly thinking about a solution, Shi Ren said a word he didn't expect-

"Good. ”

After another moment, Shi Ren said, "I have now withdrawn the formation and returned the consciousness bodies of all living beings. You can check it again through the shrine. ”

Lu Qiming shook his head slightly, and did not mean to touch the divine seat again. He walked down silently and said, "Thank you." ”

Shi Daodao: "You thank me for them, but the world will never thank you." ”

Lu Qiming smiled faintly and did not answer.

The stone man was silent for a moment, and then said: "Ordinary life, even if it dies, is nothing more than rain falling into the sea, and they will not lose their essence. What's more, in just a few months, the world will not hurt their lives. I wonder why the little master gave up collecting this power. ”

Lu Qiming shook his head and said: "Not to mention that many of them are my relatives and friends, even if they are strangers, it is impossible for me to pass this ......" He sighed, did not finish this sentence, and said slightly tired: "This is something that doesn't need a reason. ”

Shi Daodao: "If you give up this method, there is no other way to help you now." ”

"So what?" Lu Qiming asked in a low voice, and said calmly: "Cultivation is my own business, and I don't need to use this kind of 'shortcut'. ”

Shiren suddenly laughed and said, "So, little master, you still believe in all this that happened today." ”

Lu Qiming said expressionlessly: "If it's just me, it doesn't matter if there is any misunderstanding for the time being." But if it was just like that, I wouldn't believe it. ”

After a pause, Lu Qiming said again: "I also have something to puzzle about - since Senior Shi doesn't agree with my opinion, why is he willing to change his mind?"

Shi Daodao: "Do not interfere with any of your decisions - this in itself is one of the master's admonitions to me. I always trust the judgment of the master. ”

Lu Qiming fell silent again.

"I already understand what the little master means. The stone man bowed slightly, "I'll wait here." ”

"Until the day we actually meet you. ”

......

Zhongzhou, Xing'an City, Lu Zhai.

Feeling his consciousness return to his body, Lu Qiming slowly opened his eyes.

The room was bright. It was already morning.
