"Do you have a way to find out how the Temple of Life controls war?" Fengshen looked at Chu Ci in surprise.
As far as the current situation is concerned, finding out the means by which the Temple of Life affects the war is undoubtedly the most critical thing.
Only by knowing their methods can this matter be eradicated from the source. Otherwise, even if the continuation of the war is prevented, the Temple of Life will still have a way to make a comeback.
"I can't guarantee it, but you can give it a try."
Chu Ci did not speak too fully.
Judging from what Fengshen just described, the outbreak of this holy war is very similar to the war in the Spitting Fire Desert.
They all start with small local struggles, and then the scale of the struggle becomes larger and larger, and finally gradually evolves into a war that sweeps the entire desert or the entire state.
Obviously, this is all because of the secret influence of the Temple of Life, which intensified the changes in the entire war.
Since the two were so similar, Chu Ci boldly used the war model of the Spitting Fire Desert to infer this holy war.
There are two main reasons why the war in the Spitting Fire Desert broke out.
One is the main reason, that is, the lack of water sources. The Temple of Life deliberately created this problem by using drought.
This is the source of all contradictions and the most critical factor in war.
Another point is the inducement, that is, the mastermind behind the Temple of Life has been promoting the process of the war.
By raising the price of water resources, secretly controlling the eastern desert area, and stimulating internal conflicts among the desert residents, it affects the progress of the war.
It is obvious that the main reason for this holy war in the temples is the conflict between the temples and the conflict between the beliefs of the gods.
And these are the key points for the Temple of Life to start.
But here comes the problem. Chu Ci is aware of the contradictions and conflicts of faith between the temples, but these conflicts are not enough to break out such a fierce war.
Since the extermination of the great demon three hundred years ago, the human world has entered a peaceful and prosperous era for nearly three hundred years. The relationship between gods and temples has also been eased, and there is no need to fight with each other to compete for believers.
It was also from this time that the beloved ones and priests of the temple needed to seek the opinions of the local gods when taking action on the territory of other gods.
Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly very difficult to expect the two temples to go to war because of some conflicts left over from the past.
Temples are not like the sand people in the desert. You can buy them with some materials or property. If you want these temples to act according to the plan of the Temple of Life, there must be an inducement.
This reminded Chu Ci of the Thirteen Cities. The Temple of Life used the Thirteen Cities to intervene in the rule of cities in the eastern part of the desert and influence their behavior.
Then this holy war must have something similar to the "Thirteen Cities".
At this time, Chu Ci suddenly thought of something.
I saw him take out a worn yellow paper from his arms, open it and read it.
"Ten thousand miles to send a message?" Fengshen saw Chu Ci's movements and asked doubtfully: "Why did you take this out?"
Looking at the last message that was still on the yellow paper, Chu Ci said: "Wind God, you have captured so many God-killers, have you found that there is a message from Wanli on them?"
"Yes." Although he was a little confused, Fengshen still answered Chu Ci's question: "Basically, every team of Godslayers will have a sub-book that is sent thousands of miles away. They rely on this to communicate information."
"It's just that this thing is of no use. Originally, we wanted to use the information in the Book of Miles to track the traces of the Godslayers and encircle and suppress them one step ahead. However, the Temple of Life seems to have a way to confirm the owner of the Book of Miles.
, after the capture of those God-killers, the information in the Wanli Chuan book has never been updated."
"I know." Chu Ci said slowly, "But have you ever thought about who sent these messages?"
Fengshen frowned and said: "Who else can it be? It's just those god-killers... Wait, you mean, the Temple of Life has personnel who are responsible for conveying news?"
Fengshen reacted.
Chu Ci nodded: "There is a group of members in the Temple of Life who collect intelligence. I suspect that they are the ones who conveyed the message sent from Wanli."
"These people may be the culprits responsible for the current situation!"
If you want to influence the actions of the temple, the best way is to break into the temple, understand the situation of the temple, discover the secrets in the temple, and use these secrets to cause conflicts between each other.
But it is not a simple matter to penetrate into the interior of the Temple of Life.
Although the temples are not as exclusive as local forces, not everyone can enter. They will go through many tests, and some temples will also have a testing period.
These conditions alone have stopped most people, especially those who killed gods.
According to Fengshen's information, the Temple of Life began planning this holy war a year ago or even earlier.
And at that time, it happened that the God-killer of the Temple of Life was being hunted by the God Realm and was hiding everywhere.
Chu Ci didn't think that these god-slayers were just hiding from being chased, but then they could sneak into the temple forces and act as spies as if nothing had happened.
Therefore, the Temple of Life must have members who are specifically responsible for this matter. They hold the mother book of the Ten Thousand Miles of Letters, constantly convey the information they know to other members, and can also sneak into the temple to act as spies.
In this way, everything will make sense. These spies will inform the Godslayer of the information they obtained from the temple, and then the Godslayer will execute it, constantly creating and intensifying conflicts between the temples.
These spies do not need to do it themselves or leave the temple, so they will naturally not arouse the suspicion of other people in the temple.
In this case, the temple will be unknowingly affected by the Temple of Life and controlled by them to carry out war.
Of course, all of this is just Chu Ci's guess based on his understanding of the Temple of Life.
If you want to confirm your speculation, you must first find out whether this so-called spy member really exists.
After pondering for a while, Chu Ci told Fengshen his conclusion.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After listening to Chu Ci’s inference, Fengshen said solemnly: “According to what you said, there are spies from the Temple of Life in all temples now?”
"Not necessarily." Chu Ci shook his head: "It is not easy to sneak into the temple. The Temple of Life may not have so many spies."
"But as long as there are spies in a small number of temples, they can influence other temples through this method."
"After all, if you want to cause a war, all it takes is one party to initiate it."
"Then it's not easy to find this spy." Fengshen said with a bitter smile.
If it is true as Chu Ci said, then this spy must be very good at concealing himself.
If you want to find such a being among the many temples, it's no easier than finding the God Killer.
"That's not necessarily the case." Chu Ci smiled and said, "I do have a way to narrow down the possible scope of spies."
The number of spies is limited, and it is impossible to have spies in every temple.
Therefore, they will prioritize using their own temple to continuously intensify conflicts in other temples.
Chu Ci then thought of starting from this aspect.
In this holy war, the more temples have enmity with other temples, the greater the possibility that there are spies in this temple.
After determining the temple where the spy may exist, start from the time aspect.
According to Chu Ci's speculation, the time when the spies sneaked into the temple would not have been too early, and most likely it would have been during the time after the Godslayer began to hunt the gods.
Of course, some may have sneaked into the temple earlier and waited for the plan to be implemented, but Chu Ci felt that this possibility was unlikely.
Because the original God-killing plan of the Temple of Life did not start at this time, it was only because of the appearance of Chu Ci and others that the plan started early.
Chu Ci did not believe that the people in the Temple of Life could predict the future and set up plans in advance, so the spy was more likely to be among the people who joined the temple in recent years.
With these two restrictions in place, it will be much easier to find the spies. As long as you check the temple members who meet the conditions one by one, you can quickly find out where the spies are.
After listening to Chu Ci's words, Fengshen stood up and said happily: "That's right! Why didn't I think of that!"
"Sure enough, I was right to come here to find you!"
"I will go back and start this matter right now!"
Without hesitation, Fengshen turned into a gust of breeze and disappeared from the spot.
The speed was so fast that Chu Ci didn't even react.
Chu Ci:......
Have I become a tool?
Chu Ci was a little helpless. Originally, he wanted to learn more about the situation from Fengshen, but now he could only investigate on his own.
Fortunately, this kind of thing is not a secret. The Holy War in the Temple has caused an uproar in the three states, but Chu Ci didn't know about it before.
Now that he was investigating carefully, he quickly collected a lot of information about the holy war in the temple.
You wouldn't know if you didn't investigate, but after investigating Chu Ci, he discovered that the impact of this holy war in the temple was more serious than he imagined.
A total of thirty-three prefectures in Taiyi Prefecture were caught in the war, and other prefectures were also more or less affected.
According to the merchants who came to Chengyang Mansion, all the mansions covered by the war have been sealed off, and all forces or people who do not belong to the temple are unable to enter or leave the boundaries of the mansion.
Some of them left relatively quickly, some moved slower, and all were detained in the war zone.
This is just Taiyi Prefecture, Jiujiang Prefecture will only get more serious.
Chu Ci decided to go and see with his own eyes the war that affected the entire three states.
Not long after leaving Chengyang Mansion, Chu Ci felt something different.
The air was filled with a depressing atmosphere, and an evil aura belonging to war filled the sky.
The further south you go, the stronger the evil spirit becomes.
Fortunately at first, the northern region close to Chengyang Mansion was not deeply affected by the Holy War in the Temple. Chu Ci only felt the chilling atmosphere of the coming storm.
Occasionally on the road, you can see some well-informed prefectures actively preparing for war.
After continuing to go deeper south, we began to see some forces fighting. Battlefields of various sizes appeared in the vast mansion, and the shouts of killing were loud.
After arriving at Taiyang Mansion, the scale of the war took a further step.
Taiyang Mansion was one of the thirty-three mansions most affected by the war.
Chu Ci could hardly recognize that this was the Taiyang Mansion he had visited more than a year ago.
In just one year, earth-shaking changes have occurred here.
The once peaceful and prosperous city was now in ruins and no longer prosperous.
Nearly half of the entire city in Taiyang Prefecture was destroyed to varying degrees.
The law enforcement team that usually maintains order has now turned into soldiers of war, patrolling the remaining walls with expressionless faces.
After entering Jiujiang Prefecture, this war scene reached its peak.
The temple jihad in Taiyi Prefecture is still restrained. Temples fight against each other, but they rarely attack cities that have nothing to do with them or that do not have temples.
But the war in Jiujiang Prefecture has no restraint at all.
Whether it was a city or a village, any place with people was under attack.
Bodies can be seen almost everywhere in mountains, forests, cities, and plains, and people are fighting everywhere.
Chu Ci even saw two gods fighting.
But they were just two ordinary lower gods, and they left quickly after seeing Chu Ci.
The earth was red with blood, and the turbid smell of blood lingered in the air, making it nauseating.
As Fengshen said, the Holy War in Jiujiang Prefecture can no longer be regarded as a temple war, but a real race war!
Just like in ancient times, the nine tribes fought against each other.
The level of madness is such that not even the gods can stop it.
Chu Ci tried to prevent a small-scale war, but even his star field could not stop the hostility and hatred between the two sides.
As soon as Chu Ci lets go, the two sides will conquer each other again.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Chu Ci remained silent.
Only by truly seeing can we understand the cruelty of war.
Along the way, there were countless casualties and large numbers of people displaced.
The most outrageous thing is that many people use the name of this holy war to satisfy their own selfish desires and do despicable things.
The consequence of this is that ordinary people's trust in gods has been greatly weakened.
The source of previous wars was humans themselves, but this time it was the temple that started the war.
Although the people who manage the temple are also humans, in the eyes of ordinary people, the temple is equivalent to the gods, and the actions of the temple are equivalent to the instructions of the gods.
They don't know what the Temple of Life is, nor what the God Killer is. They only know that it was the war launched by the gods that destroyed their home.
There are even some fugitives who have lost their families and their families and resent the gods.
Chu Ci knew that the purpose of the Temple of Life had been achieved.
Even if the jihad is stopped now, its impact cannot be eliminated.
Chu Ci sighed, what the God Realm can do now is to resolve this war as soon as possible and minimize the impact.
"Temple of Life!"
Chu Ci clenched his fists and his eyes became cold.
This bunch of bastards spare no effort to slander the gods and create favorable conditions for their own survival.
If we continue to let them run free, who knows what else they will do?
Their conspiracy must be destroyed before they cause more serious damage!
Chu Ci's eyes were firm and he had made a decision in his heart.
Just as he turned around to leave, he suddenly heard a movement in the distance.
