Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 685
Chapter 685: If the People Needed Something to Believe In, Then I Shall Be the One They Put Their Faith In
“Wherever I go, all the false gods shall perish!”
Chu Kuangren stood in the air. His body radiated with divine light while surge after surge of his powerful aura spread forth everywhere.
He had easily shattered the three Godly Apparitions with power so terrifying and more powerful than that of a deity, shocking countless people.
“Foolish mortals, it is I who am the one true God! Those who worship me shall be saved from the cycle of rebirth!” Chu Kuangren’s gaze swept through the crowd.
He then gently lifted his hand and cast the Spring Breeze Healing Technique. The spiritual qi from his surroundings was gathered and transformed into a majestic rain that descended upon the whole area.
Countless living beings in the rain could feel every single cell inside their body jump with delight, and those with injuries or hidden illnesses were completely healed.
Various flowers, trees, and plant life grew in abundance.
Every living being rejoiced as if it were a celebration of life!
This occurrence was undoubtedly a miracle to everyone!
“A God. This is the true God!” Upon seeing such miracles, some of them kneeled on the ground and called out the name of their true God.
“I see. So the God of Fire and others earlier were false Gods. He is, without a doubt, the one true God! Oh, almighty God, please forgive us for our stupidity and ignorance.”
“That’s right. If that was the real God of Fire, why was he burned to death by someone else’s fire? They must certainly be false Gods. This, right here, is the real God.”
“The true God’s appearance shall bless all beings with happiness. Whatever we see now is the best proof of this. Oh, True Black Heaven God, please accept our worship.”
Some of the followers from the School of White Lotus— no, Black Heaven School that were among the crowd, as planned, took the opportunity to rile up the crowd and praise the True Black Heaven God.
Upon seeing this, the others also knelt on the ground.
“Almighty True Black Heaven God…”
“Almighty True Black Heaven God…”
Everyone was chanting the name of the True Black Heaven God.
“Stand up now, everyone. He’s not the True Black Heaven God. He’s a liar. Do not be fooled by him.”
Feeling anxious, the Fire God Cult Leader and others said loudly.
Chu Kuangren’s gaze landed on them, and he spoke in an apathetic tone, “If you guys kneel and repent for insulting the true God, perhaps I shall forgive you.”
“You liar, there’s no way we’ll submit to you. The day when the Gods break free from their seals will be the day your real identity as a false God is revealed.”
The Fire God Cult Leader said with a ferocious expression.
“So you’re refusing to awake from your delusions.”
Hence, Chu Kuangren raised his arm. The Almighty Avatar behind him immediately reached out and grabbed both the Water God Cult Leader and the Fire God Cult Leader in its hand.
The might of his Almighty Avatar erupted!
With a bang, two veils of blood mists burst out in the air.
Both the Cult Leaders were dead!
At that, the only remaining Ice God Cult Leader’s figure flashed, preparing to flee. However, an attack from the Divine Four Mystical Elements Sword immediately reduced him to a pile of flesh.
“If heretical followers like you continue to worship the false Gods, you shall be trapped in the endless pits of hell!” An invisible surge of Daoist fluctuation appeared from Chu Kuangren’s hand and enveloped the followers of the three religious orthodoxies.
It was the Immortal Technique, Phantasmal Seven Emotions Tune!
The followers from the religious orthodoxies immediately knelt on the ground crying while admitting to the wrongs they had committed.
“It’s all our fault. We shouldn’t have poisoned the villagers’ well and saved them after just to make them believe in the God of Fire.”
“Sobs… Sobs… Those bandits in the past were actually our people.”
“This is all a mistake…”
The followers of the religious orthodoxies cried their eyes out.
Upon seeing this, the common folk were dumbfounded and angered at the same time. There was a boiling rage seeping out from their eyes.
“You b*stards. It was you guys all along.”
“If it weren’t for the true God’s appearance, who knows how long you guys would keep us in the dark? Every one of you deserves to die.”
“Kill them. Kill them…”
At this point, no one doubted Chu Kuangren’s identity as a true God anymore.
Killing three great Godly Apparitions easily, creating miracles, freeing the people of the truth, and making all of the three religious orthodoxy followers cry and confess with just one sentence, were these not the actions of a true God?
On top of the despicable methods those religious orthodoxies used to grow their followers and worshippers, no one would believe them now that their actions had been exposed.
“Seeing the sufferings of every being in this disaster-riddled world, I have created a school, called the Black Heaven School. From this day onwards, those who join this school shall be under my protection.”
“With my presence, the school shall flourish while my followers shall live in peace and prosperity. You shall not fall into the cycle of rebirth after death.” Chu Kuangren stood in the air, his voice echoing throughout the whole prefecture.
Divine illumination radiated from his body, and his Almighty Avatar stood proudly in the air.
Countless people knelt on the ground one after another while chanting the name of their God.
“Almighty True Black Heaven God.”
“Almighty True Black Heaven God…”
After he was done with all of this, Chu Kuangren disappeared.
The Immemorial Sage and others would take care of the rest.
Having been in charge of the School of White Lotus in the past, they were very familiar with how to grow a religious orthodoxy. With Chu Kuangren, a living breathing “True God” around, they were immediately flooded by countless new followers who joined their school.
After that battle, the three religious orthodoxies in Barren Cloud Prefecture crumbled not long after. The common folk who believed in the God of Fire and God of Water turned and chose to believe in the True Black Heaven God instead. This time, they were even more devoted and loyal than before.
In the meantime, an Emperor, who was checking out the situation in Barren Cloud Prefecture, secretly gulped in shock. “I can’t believe the Heavenly Tormentor would use such a tactic to deal with the God Worshipping Cult. This is simply remarkable.”
“But is it really okay for him to be doing something like this?”
He was a little worried.
By doing this, Chu Kuangren was no different from the Gods who increased their followers to gather the Power of Faith.
The Great Panhuman Revolt that broke out in the past was to destroy the people’s faith in the Gods.
However, Chu Kuangren had gone and started another new religious orthodoxy.
‘Is this really alright?’
After much pondering, that Emperor reported this to the Heavenly Imperials.
…
Inside the School of White Lotus.
Chu Kuangren, the Immemorial Sage, the White Lotus School Leader, and others were discussing their next move and how to grow the Black Heaven School.
“I heard that some so-called Thunder God Cult has recently emerged in the Dark Tiger Prefecture. Let’s eradicate them next.”
Chu Kuangren yawned as he said.
Since there were many types of Gods, this meant that there would be many branches and factions within the God Worshipping Cult. Now that those factions were here at Firmament Star, they had begun to spread their faith, building up the number of their followers to gather their Power of Faith.
In the future, various factions and religious orthodoxies would appear without a doubt. Hence, Black Heaven School would have many opponents to deal with.
At this moment, the communication compass on Chu Kuangren’s waist suddenly vibrated.
It was a call from the Seventh Tormentor, one of the Heavenly Tormentors.
“Oh, can you give me a moment?”
Chu Kuangren said to the Immemorial Sage and others.
Everyone nodded and left after that.
Chu Kuangren opened his communication compass, and a light projection of a figure appeared from it. It was the Seventh Tormentor, who was currently looking at Chu Kuangren with a complicated and doubtful gaze. “I heard you’ve created a religious orthodoxy in Barren Cloud Prefecture and announced yourself to the people as some so-called True Black Heaven God. What are you planning to do?”
“Get in the way of the Gods and stop them from gathering the Power of Faith.”
Chu Kuangren replied.
“During the Great Panhuman Revolt, we fought against the Gods to break the humans free from their control, enabling them to live in freedom by shining a light on the Gods’ heinous acts. But whatever you’re doing now is no different than the Gods back then. You’d better stop this at once.”
The Seventh Tormentor said seriously.
“I disagree, I believe that by doing this, we’re eliminating the possible threats that could happen in the future! Not every human being can be wise and rational. If you want proof, just look at the situation now. Since you’ve sealed away the Gods, why are there still so many people who choose to worship them?”
“Not everyone can be as powerful as us, to stand up to the Gods. In this world, the weak occupy an overwhelming majority of the whole population, and with the newly-found faith, it can make them fearless and make their hearts stronger!”
“If the people need something to believe in, then I shall be the person they put their faith in!” Chu Kuangren said with confidence.
