Chapter 42: The Plundering of Faith
"In my name, Pope Kongming, I declare that from now on, you can pray anytime, anywhere, and by anyone!"
The empty words stirred up countless waves in the hearts of all those present, the Pope, only a servant of God can have the true title, this is the true ruler of the whole kingdom of God, it is a supreme glorious title, although everyone in the whole kingdom of God knows that each pope is only a few months short, and the long term can be up to several decades, but this does not affect the holy title of the pope and his power. It's a pity that Kong Ming doesn't care at all about the so-called god on the bright side, maybe the other party's strength is not as strong as his own.
"Wow!"
All of a sudden, everyone present knelt down.
"See His Majesty the Pope!"
"See His Majesty the Pope!"
"See His Majesty the Pope!"
"See His Majesty the Pope!"
"See His Majesty the Pope!"
Loud voices came and went.
The sound of this floor spread to the other floors, and in an instant the entire hotel fell silent, and countless kneeling voices came, and countless respectful voices continued to sound.
The little girl fell to her knees, and her whole body trembled, the Pope, but the true master of the kingdom of God, even if the bishop presided over the daily activities and did it for countless years, he never dared to touch the throne, because all those who sat in that position without permission died, and only those who were truly appointed by God could be called the Pope.
At this time, Kong Ming didn't make any movements, and he didn't need any movements, because he was carefully experiencing it. The infinite fear, panic, and firm faith that permeated the reverence of those people continued to seep into the empty body. Arrive at the corresponding small universes, so that the small universes can begin to expand continuously in the first time. Even Kong Ming closed his eyes directly. Calming his mind down, what made Kong Ming feel puzzled was that he actually gained some understanding of the void rule in this experience. This has never been before, in the abyss of despair, in the land of bloody battles, in countless battles, what he can receive is the understanding of the battle and the absorption of some negative breath, but it is really difficult to understand those negative voids, but now, in front of these people. Those complicated feelings made Kong Ming have a real understanding of these voids. This really makes Kong Ming a little strange, or when he is fighting, he also has some understanding of these void rules, but, at that moment, where is he in the mood to think about this kind of thing?
Kong Ming was silent for a long time, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the entire lobby was inside. They were all on their knees. And seeing that the legs of those people were trembling, even several people had already foamed at the mouth and fainted, but no one dared to step forward to help. Apparently a long time had passed, and Kong Ming looked at the clock hanging in the center of the lobby and realized that nearly two hours had passed. Or the person kneeling below is really slandering himself. Kong Ming thought, and then waved his right hand. All of them felt a burst of refreshment, and those who had fainted woke up. And there is a lot of spirit. Kong Ming's action made those people sigh.
"Sit cross-legged on the spot. Kong Ming said lightly, there was no meaning, just a sentence, but the kneeling person, keep you looking at me, I look at you, and then look at some dirty floors, and finally there was a bolder person, directly sat down cross-legged, and the others also did the same, not caring about the expensive clothes, and after a while, the entire lobby was full of people sitting on the floor. The little girl selling flowers looked straight at Kong Ming, her eyes were full of fanaticism, she never thought that in this life, she could actually see the Pope at such a close distance.
Kong Ming didn't dislike being dirty, he also sat down cross-legged, and waved his hand again, and the tables between the entire lobby flew to a no-man's corner, so that Kong Ming could directly face everyone. , directly preaching: "God has mercy on the world, and the Pope preaches in vain......"
No one thought that Kong Ming would sit down and preach directly, and it would take more than two hours to speak, in the process of this continuous preaching, Kong Ming did not have a book about the gods enshrined in this world in his hands, after all, he had already memorized that thing, there was no need to hold it in his hands, and he began to use a different method to explain the book, such as magic and spell demonstration. Kongming's words were no different from the beginning, but as Kongming's words deepened, Kongming directly used his divine sense to hook up the belief of the god he was offering, so that he could truly manifest before people. To put it bluntly, Kongming is just using Li Dai Taozhuang, using the cloak of God to do his own things. And as Kong Ming continued to preach, his name was constantly mentioned in his words, so that everyone had more understanding of him, and at this time, Kong Ming carefully experienced, he suddenly found that when he preached, the little faith he divided was a little more, and it was still increasing. And in addition to this, there are more emotions in it, and the broughtness of these feelings does not make Kong Ming have any trouble, but makes Kong Ming have a deeper understanding of the void where these things are, after all, he can experience everyone's thinking about preaching things from those beliefs.
In the process of preaching, Kong Ming found that through guò's understanding of everyone's beliefs, we can get everyone's true thoughts at this moment, and even everyone's belief in this so-called god.
Faith is supposed to be a kind of divine art. This was the first thought of Kong Ming, and it was a magic spell born in the beliefs of the powerless commoners. At this moment, Kong Ming really had an extremely urgent need for the exploration of divine arts. Divine magic does not necessarily have to be issued by a strong person at the god level, this Kong Ming has long known, after all, he can use divine magic when he is also at the god level, but he never thought that divine magic can also be produced among mortals, and this kind of divine art actually has the effect of washing thoughts, you know, in the cultivation world, in order to make every step of their ascension to the Jin Dynasty more stable, usually they need to constantly wash their own thoughts, only so. in order to truly survive the catastrophe. And in order to wash the thoughts, the methods are also strange. Kong Ming didn't expect that faith was actually one of them.
After Kong Ming finished preaching. He left directly with Philip and the little girl named Ah Qin who sold flowers, he didn't embarrass those people, nor did he pay attention to more things, he just left with people.
In the temple, Kong Ming was sitting in the study, and behind him there were countless books about the so-called gods, Kong Ming thought about it and reached out and took out one.
"In the year 13673 of the Divine Calendar, the rogues in the Kingdom of God were everywhere. Countless priests and knights were killed, the four sides shook, the miracle was displayed in the city of God, the magic was overflowing, everyone felt full, many magicians and knights took a step forward, and the miracle reappeared, and everyone died. In the year 6378 of the Divine Calendar, the Kingdom of God was besieged by six empires around it. And has been under the siege of the city for more than three years, miracles, a splendor. Subsequently, the elites of the six empires were killed and wounded, and the Kingdom of God took the opportunity to sweep through the countries. More than 12,000 kilometers of land have been expanded. In the year 1002 of the Divine Calendar, the land of God was 1,000 kilometers. There are countless countries around, and they are attacked by all countries. The kingdom of God suffered greatly, and miracles descended, and the four sides were subdued, and the land expanded for more than 3,000 kilometers. In the first year of the Divine Calendar, God descended on the sacred mountain, preached for more than 30 years, and countless believers followed, with the establishment of the Kingdom of God, the place was 100 kilometers square......"
Kong Ming looked at the history of the entire kingdom of God, this is not only the history of a kingdom of God, but also the history of the expansion of the kingdom of God, and more importantly, one of the points, that is, Kong Ming found that the strength of this so-called god should not be very large, from his beginning to the present, the total history is only more than 20,000 years, and in this history, he can only continue to slowly spread the entire kingdom of God to the surroundings, according to Kong Ming's estimate, this so-called god is only a strong man at the level of a god servant, so he does not dare to eat directly into a fat man。
Kong Ming then read other books, I have to say, the Pope has a lot of books, not only the history of the entire continent now, but also many different cultivation systems and many spells in the entire continent, they are all using spiritual power, Kong Ming thought about it, and recorded these things directly with some monks' jade slips, these things either he will not practice, or they will not be applicable to the Huatian Continent, but they can be used as a reference, the collision of the two civilizations will inevitably be able to wipe out the most dazzling fire, this point, Kong Ming has always been very much agreed。
After a long time, Kong Ming sighed, he finally read all the books in the entire room, of course, this is also thanks to his god king-level divine soul, otherwise, if according to the opinion of mortals, I don't know how many years and months it will take to read it, not only that, but I will also read the back and throw the front.
Kong Ming's fingers tapped on the table from time to time, constantly thinking about how to get a piece of the soup from this suspected god servant's faith, and at the same time, he would not be discovered, and even if he did, the other party would not dare to say anything.
First of all, it is impossible for Kong Ming to reveal the essence of the God King in front of this suspected god servant, otherwise, I don't know how many people will find him in the future and want to destroy him, so the gains outweigh the losses, so it is impossible for him to have similar negotiations with the other party, so he can only start from other aspects.
Secondly, Kong Ming knows that everyone who comes here is actually equivalent to a person similar to the land of gods and demons, so that they can understand the importance of faith, which can stabilize the divine soul, clear the strength, and can be in the mortal world, where there is no divine element, which is beneficial to cultivation, so even if he gets some faith at this time, people will not say anything, but the key question is how Kong Ming can get these beliefs for a long time, you must know that once Kong Ming leaves here, he will have nothing except a little trace of history here, and all his current share of faith will also be replaced by others。 In other words, they came here on a mission to understand the foundation of the kingdom of God and prepare for the creation of the kingdom of God in the future. There can be many ways to establish the kingdom of God, some are to use magic weapons such as caves, melt them into themselves, and then put some mortals into it, give birth and rest, believe in themselves, and become a kingdom of gods, which is also the most basic one; some are using their own small universe to directly form a kingdom of gods after fusing together, and now Kong Ming is taking this path; some are using the current continent to directly shape themselves into the image of a god, so that the people there can believe in themselves, so that it can be called the kingdom of God。 It's just that the foundation of this kind of divine kingdom is extremely poor, and the entire faith will collapse at any time with the invasion of other forces. In this way, faith will also be lost. Therefore, this kind of divine kingdom is also called the pseudo-divine kingdom, this kind of is usually established by some powerful people above the level of gods who are not very strong, and the place where Kong Ming is now is such a pseudo-divine kingdom.
Kong Ming thought about it, and couldn't help but walk out of the room and into the garden, the long night was long, the moonlight was like water, and the small animals around him kept calling, and this place had almost become their paradise. In the garden, there are several knights of the temple, constantly patrolling there in case of accidents.
All of this qiē cut into Kong Ming's eyes, thinking about it, Kong Ming couldn't help but smile, it was he who thought too much. The land of gods and demons let them come here to try, and there must be a taste of investigation in it, or maybe this kingdom of gods was established by one of them. At this time, Kong Ming suddenly woke up to the fact that the god of this kingdom of God should actually be like him. It is a strong man similar to the land of gods and demons, and a strong man of their level who came to this continent is almost a top powerhouse, in other words, a god. As for every miracle shown. How could such a thing be rare for those strong people who guarded the land of gods and demons? They only needed to send some other strong people over and divide them by two, and they could solve these problems, after all, this kind of thing was a great disaster for the kingdom of God. For them, it's just a small matter of waving hands. That way, everything makes sense. Why a god-level powerhouse can oppose a god-kingdom here is not how powerful he is. Rather, it was established here before he became a man of God, and now, it has become a kingdom of God for him. Kong Ming didn't believe that a god-level powerhouse would have only one such pseudo-god-kingdom? When he figured it out, how could Kong Ming care about that so-called god? As a god-servant, he didn't even have the qualifications to come to the mortal world from the god realm through normal channels, and that god was obviously a person from the camp behind the land of gods and demons. I really think about it too much!" Kong Ming sighed.
"See His Majesty the Pope Kongming!" a patrol passed by Kongming, and the leader of the leading squad saluted Kongming directly.
Kong Ming nodded and walked past them. And the squad began patrolling again.
Kong Ming followed a path in the garden, lowered his head and continued to think. Since others have established the kingdom of God, why does Kong Ming receive some of these beliefs when he conducts prayer ceremonies?
"See His Majesty the Pope!" said some of the maids in the temple as they passed by Kong Ming's side.
Kong Ming still nodded and walked forward. When the maids saw this, they hurried to their business.
After walking more than ten steps, Kong Ming suddenly felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong for a while. After thinking about it, I still don't know the point. Letting go of this thought, Kong Ming went forward again.
"See His Majesty the Pope of Kongming!"
"See His Majesty the Pope!"
"See His Majesty the Pope of Kongming!"
"See His Majesty the Pope!"
"See His Majesty the Pope of Kongming!"
"See His Majesty the Pope of Kongming!"
"See His Majesty the Pope!"
……
Two hours later, Kong Ming was still walking in the garden, but at this time he suddenly realized where something was wrong. It's the salutation, the name given to him by those who pass by him. Whenever his name is included in the title, he gets more faith, and whenever his name is not included in the title, there is less faith. Think about it, there can be many popes, and there is only one empty Ming, there can be many empty Ming, and there is only one empty Ming who becomes a pope, even if there are many empty Mings in the world, and there are many people who become popes, but there is only one empty Ming who becomes a Pope in this kingdom of God, that is, the only one, so he is the only one.
When those people call him the Pope, it is just a kind of title for his position, not how much respect or belief he has as a person, but once he is called the Pope of Emptiness, no matter what he thinks at the time, it is only for him as a person, and it is a pope, and at this time, that God cannot separate even a trace of his faith. From here, Sora Ming knows, what he should do, he needs to give his name to everyone within these three months, so that faith will come to him in every chant, whether these things are good or bad, but, one thing, Kong Ming knows, that is, he will get more faith.
This situation is like there are many gods in every place, the mountain has a mountain god, the fire has a fire god, the water has a water god, and even the stove has a stove god, these are the names of the people for the specific gods of the place, which is the source of their faith. Thinking of this, where does Kong Ming still not understand? He needs to become a god in this plane now, even if he is not now, but he must do it, anyway, after leaving here, no matter what, he will get some faith.
There is an old saying that is true, the way of thinking determines the way out.
Kuming returned to the room, and he slowly thought that during these three months, he must make people think that he was a god and not a person. Of course, there is an essential difference between God and the strong man of God and the level of God and Servant, the strong man is a human being rather than a god, and God is more in a spiritual realm than in reality. So what kind of face will he appear in front of these mortals? Pope Kongming? Of course not, but it should be a god of Kongming? Thinking of this, Kongming couldn't help but smile dumbly, never thought that he would have such a day, in order to make himself stronger, and shape himself into a god, a guy in the spiritual realm. So where should he start?
War, Battle, Nature, Space, Humanity, Fire?
Kong Ming kept thinking that his strengths were only these, and only in these aspects did those who came after him have no way to pull down his status, and this god-making movement is a bit like breaking a record, once someone's record has been there, and the people behind him can't surpass it, then people can only add words like "so-and-so second" in front of the most outstanding person, that is, they will resolutely not admit that it is the first. And with the brother in front of him there, it's really not easy for Kong Ming to be brilliant! Fortunately, there are always more ways than difficulties, not to mention that Kong Ming is also a plotter in a certain situation. What he knows is that once the people believe in themselves, then many times, affordability is the most economical, but also the fastest way, of course, it is also the shortest-lived way, for example, you can give others ten yuan, let others call you the God of Wealth, then other people can also give others fifteen yuan, let others call him the God of Wealth, in this way, their own efforts are all in vain, of course, the use of such a method can allow Kong Ming to establish faith in a short period of time, so that the power of their own faith will increase all of a sudden, and the next goal is to maintain the power of faith。 The word mystery is the meaning of making people think about it, and in most cases, this word will make more people remember, for example, people worship fire, so there is the god of fire, which is a virtual god position, and once someone plays with fire out of the gods, then the first person will definitely be called the god of fire, and after a few years, in the hearts of the people this person is the god of fire, and the god of fire is this person, and in this way, the virtual god position has become the real god position, no matter how many people come later, it is impossible to replace the god of fire in the hearts of the people, even if those people are strong, they can only be relegated to the second, this is the role of mysteryIt cannot establish a faith in a simple time, but it can make the faith of a kingdom of God last for a long time, and as long as this kingdom does not disappear, then it will exist as far away, because it is rooted among the people.
Sometimes I have to say that I am not afraid of hooligans and have culture, but I am afraid that cultural people will play hooligans. Thinking of this, Kong Ming hardly thought about some other nonsense, he decided that if he wanted to establish the source of his own faith power within three months, then he had to start in two aspects, one was to benefit everyone in a short period of time, and the second was to make everyone feel mysterious.
Thinking of this, Kong Ming couldn't help but laugh directly. Because he had a brilliant idea. (To be continued......)
