As time passes year by year, the spiritual energy within the Three Realms becomes increasingly thinner.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao sat opposite each other, their faces a little solemn.
Just yesterday, they heard some very bad news.
A large city in Hezhou, Xiniu, belonging to the Ming Dynasty, was conquered by an uprising from within.
People loyal to the Ming Dynasty were killed, and a group of people who believed in Hades occupied high positions.
And this Pluto, although there is no shadow of Buddhism, exudes the aura of the power of Buddhist faith from the inside out.
Obviously, there is no doubt that this is something created by Tathagata Buddha.
Speaking of which, if Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to set an example at this time and kill the troublemakers in the city, or directly wipe out the city, it would be a very simple matter.
All he had to do was move his fingers.
Because within 10,000 miles of this city, there are countless powerful flying swords aiming at this city. He only needs one thought to completely wipe this city out of this world.
But what's the point of doing this?
Pluto, or the power of faith, has begun to occupy the hearts of those cultivating immortals in the Three Realms. Unless all these cultivators are killed and only mortals are left in the entire Three Realms, it will be impossible to prevent them from turning to Buddhism.
One side.
After all, this is a matter of great interest, related to the future longevity and even strength of those cultivators.
People who believe in Pluto can gain massive power of faith, use powerful methods, and even gain long lifespan. However, those who do not believe in Pluto will have their spiritual energy dissipated, their lifespan shortened, and their methods dissipated.
I can watch myself retreat from the extraordinary realm bit by bit.
This is especially true for those who are approaching their longevity.
They will clearly feel that their life span is shortening at an extremely fast rate.
This will drive them all into madness.
This is the reason why this city was eventually transformed into a city that believed in Hades by those crazy immortal cultivators.
"I still misjudged the impact of the decline of spiritual energy on this world!"
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed softly and said: "I also underestimated a world with immortal cultivators and how profound the influence of immortal cultivators is on mortals."
In such a world, immortal cultivators have absolute power, a power that even exceeds the rule of ancient Chinese nobles over ordinary people.
Because in ancient China, if the aristocratic landowners forced ordinary people too hard, they would rise up and fight against the princes and generals.
But in the world of cultivating immortals, such a scene will never happen.
Because immortal cultivators gather great power into themselves, the most ordinary Qi-training realm cultivator can kill a hundred times, a thousand times, or even ten thousand times more mortals.
Not to mention directly killing the person in charge in the midst of thousands of armies.
Naturally, mortals have even less say.
"What do we do now?"
"Biao'er, do you have any good ideas?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
"Father, since the decline of spiritual energy is now an inevitable trend, then we have nothing to hesitate about. We can just stand on the side of mortals."…
Zhu Biao said with a smile: "The main contradiction now is that those cultivators want to gather believers through belief in Pluto, gain the power of faith, and then use the power of faith to strengthen themselves, extend their lifespan and improve their military force.
"
"But this has actually harmed the interests of mortals. If it had been before, before the Ming Dynasty had educated these people, they might not have felt anything. It is not natural to believe in gods and receive blessings from them.
Something?"
"But it's different now. As the essence of Buddhism has been popularized by the Ming Dynasty, many mortals now know the essence of the power of faith. Knowing that this kind of thing is essentially exploiting believers, of course they will have their own thoughts."
"There is only one reason why there is no resistance to these immortal cultivators, and that is that mortals cannot compete with the immortal cultivators. Just like in the big city occupied by Pluto believers, no matter how many mortals miss the Ming Dynasty and want to return to the Ming Dynasty,
Under the rule, as long as those cultivators disagree, they are helpless."
"What do you mean, Biao'er?" Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it and asked.
"Let those mortals who are unwilling to be followers of Pluto have the power to kill gods." Zhu Biao said with a smile on his face.
An ordinary firearm can kill a strong martial artist with just one bullet.
However, it is completely impossible for such a firearm to kill a Qi Cultivation Realm cultivator, because as long as it reaches the Qi Lian Realm, it can activate the magic and turn it into a shield. This kind of shield looks only thin.
It is a thin layer, but it can block thousands of powerful attacks. Bullets cannot break through this protective shield at all.
But ordinary firearms cannot break through, but the laser gun produced by Daming is very simple. Even if it is held by a seven or eight-year-old child, it can easily destroy the head of a Qi practitioner with one shot.
In addition, Ming Dynasty also created a variety of large-scale automated spiritual weapons.
One of the biggest features of this weapon is that it does not require aura to be activated and can be used by mortals, but the power of the weapon is not reduced at all.
There is even a magic weapon called the God-killing Spear, which a trained ordinary person can easily kill.
Of course, the most you can do is try to shoot the Earth Immortal, but above the Earth Immortal, it is completely useless.
And even if you kill an Earth Immortal, the success rate is horribly low, with almost no chance of success.
Of course, even so, it is enough for today's Ming Dynasty.
If the previous Three Realms and Four Continents were holy places for cultivating immortals, and almost half of the people would eventually embark on the path of cultivating immortals, then the current Three Realms and Four Continents have become a dying old man.
The number of mortals has reached 70%, and most of the remaining 30% are the kind of strong people who dare not use too much spiritual power at all.
If before, it would have been impossible for mortals to overthrow the cultivators with such spiritual weapons, but it is different now. They really have hope.
"Okay, let's do it this way. In the end, the mortals of the Three Realms have to decide and fight for matters in the Three Realms. Even if we really intervene, I'm afraid we will encounter a quagmire. Maybe this is Daozu's original plan.
must."…
Zhu Yuanzhang looked like this, and a smile couldn't help but appear on his lips.
Although he has not met Daozu yet, he has already felt that the other party is indeed very strong and difficult to deal with, but it doesn't matter, they are equally strong and difficult to deal with.
Wangyue City
Li Hua looked at the guys on the high platform in the distance who claimed to be the messengers of Pluto with hatred in his eyes.
These guys were once the people in charge of Wangyue City, and they were a group of managers recruited here by the Ming Empire.
Originally, they were also strong men with forward-thinking ideas and very friendly to mortals. Everyone loved these people, but slowly and for some unknown reason, they gradually began to ignore things.
But a few years later, they suddenly appeared again, and as soon as they appeared, they killed several of their colleagues, and then declared that Moon Moon City was under the rule of Pluto.
All of them must believe in Pluto and be governed by Pluto.
You must know that the education system of Wangyue City has been developed for hundreds of years. Over the years, not only the immortal cultivators have been affected, but even mortals have also been affected subtly.
The details of Buddhism have long been known to everyone.
The harmful effects of the power of faith are well known to many people.
As soon as the so-called Pluto cultivation system came out, Li Hua instantly realized that it was just the Buddhist system with a new skin.
This is another way for them to fall into a belief system!
How could he agree to such a thing?
However, although he was very angry in his heart, he was only a mortal after all, and what could he do as a mortal.
In the eyes of those who cultivate immortality, I am probably not even as good as an ant!
Although he has been studying very hard over the years, and he is indeed smart and has learned a lot of knowledge, but knowledge does not represent power. It can even be said that knowledge is vulnerable to power.
He originally placed his hopes on the other cultivators of Wangyue City, hoping that they would scold those guys and their wolfish ambitions, and bring justice to Wangyue City.
But it's a pity that it didn't happen. The entire Wangyue City was extremely peaceful and strange.
There are simply no cultivators willing to stand up.
In other words, those cultivators who were willing to stand up had already been killed as soon as possible.
It was only then that Li Hua finally realized the seriousness of the problem. All the immortal cultivators in Wangyue City had rebelled.
Perhaps it also includes the city lord whose cultivation has reached the fairyland.
To be honest, this immediately made Li Hua's hands and feet feel cold.
After all, he had learned in the book what the mortals in the so-called Paradise were like.
He didn't want himself and his descendants to become like that.
But even so, he still never thought that he could resist. As a mortal, he knew very well how insignificant his power was in front of real immortal cultivators and even immortals.
Of course, this is also because he still has expectations.
I hope that Heaven will bring justice to this matter and send more powerful men to the lower world to deal with this matter.
But he has been waiting for three months, and until now there is still no sign that heaven will send heavenly soldiers and generals to deal with this matter...
Li Hua was a little disappointed and even felt that it was meaningless to continue living like this.
At this moment, he had even secretly made up his mind that if he really wanted to become a follower of Pluto, he would never have children.
Because he knows what kind of life those people in the so-called Paradise live.
He doesn't want his future children to continue to live like this.
And there are many people like him in Wangyue City.
Naturally, the power of faith that can be generated in this big city is much less.
"The power of such faith is really too little. Why does the Buddha never agree to use the magical power of transformation?"
"If we use it, the entire population of this big city will belong to us, and then we will receive ten times more power of faith than here." King Yama looked at the city, frowned and said,
Of course, his current image is that of King Yama, but no one knows whether he is actually King Yama on the inside.
After all, they are now the split souls of Empress Ping Xin. They are essentially the same, but they still retain their own consciousness. Judging from their own auras, they are actually the same.
"How many people are there in this city now?" Tathagata Buddha asked with a smile.
"Nearly one million people." King Yama said with a smile.
Apart from anything else, the Ming Empire was really good at running cities. In just a few years, it was able to turn a city that originally had only about 100,000 people into a city with a population of one million.
"Then tell me how many such big cities there are in Xiniu Hezhou today, and how many such big cities are there in the entire Three Realms?" Tathagata Buddha asked.
King Yama was a little hesitant. He really didn't know the specific number. He only knew that the number of cities was indeed very large.
"Let me tell you, as of three years ago, the Ming Dynasty had built 2,864 large cities in the three realms and four major continents."
"If each city has a population of 100 people, how many people can you count?"
Hearing what Tathagata Buddha said, King Yama couldn't help but stop breathing.
The human race's ability to reproduce is really too powerful. If all of such a large population were acquired by them and became their believers, the power of faith they would gain would definitely be an astronomical figure.
Looking at the appearance of King Yama, Tathagata Buddha knew that the other party must have understood what he said.
"But what does this have to do with what you asked you to do?" King Yama asked curiously.
"Of course it does matter. If everyone here is converted, the managers in other big cities will be afraid. After all, they only want to live forever and keep their current cultivation level alive. They just want to join us.
I don’t want to be a puppet of Buddhism or anything like that.”
"We must at least create a benchmark so that everyone can understand the benefits of the power of faith, and let them get real benefits." Tathagata Buddha spoke with confidence.
Of course, all the people he mentioned did not include mortals.
Mortals only serve these immortal cultivators and even provide them with their own nourishment.
"Okay, I understand, just do whatever you tell me to do." King Yama said with a smile.
Tathagata Buddha took a deep look at this guy. He actually knew very well that this guy didn't understand at all, but he didn't need to know too much about it now.
"Very good, let's just continue to wait and see what happens. No matter what Zhu Yuanzhang does, whether he starts a massacre or just ignores it, he will definitely lose." Tathagata Buddha said in an extremely serious tone.
Obviously, he was very happy to win against Zhu Yuanzhang once.
