Zhang Ke ignored the complicated mentality of the three new disciples.
He continued: "Tao soldiers actually have many names, such as heavenly soldiers, strong men, yin soldiers, etc.
These all belong to the same summoning method.
It seems very common, but in fact this method is extraordinary.
None of the gods who have the ability to issue summoning talisman edicts is simple.
And the reason why I can complete the construction of this method in my current state.
In the final analysis, it is because of the opportunity I got in the secret realm of the Sand Sea."
Having said this, Zhang Ke looked at it with conviction.
"Believe it! Entering the secret realm of the Sand Sea is my personal decision and has nothing to do with you."
Duxin's body trembled, and he silently cupped his hands without saying a word.
Zhang Ke continued: "I have had an idea for a long time to build Tao soldiers that ordinary people can control.
I once used emery to construct three kinds of Taoist weapons: Tiangang, Disha, and Zhoutian."
Lianshan and others couldn't help but cast their eyes towards the many humanoid armors standing in the corner of the hall.
Zhang Ke’s words confirmed everyone’s suspicions.
"The white gold armor around the main hall is the Tiangang Taoist soldiers, the purple armor is the Earthly Taoist soldiers, and the gold armor is the Zhou Tian Taoist soldiers.
But these can only be summoned by believers who have cultivated themselves.
So I have always wanted to build a simple Taoist soldier that ordinary believers can summon.
This time in the secret realm of the sand sea, we finally gathered enough emery to construct the [Ruyi Dao Weapon].
[Wish Thought], [Thousand Mirrors Near Me], and [Ruyi Taoist Soldiers] are indispensable.
This truly completes the idea of allowing ordinary believers to summon Taoist soldiers."
Zhang Ke did not elaborate on the details.
From what Zhang Ke said, it seemed like an understatement, but the difficulty would definitely frighten True Lord Yuanshen.
Su Donghai and others' admiration for Zhang Ke cannot be described in words.
It wasn't until a few minutes later that Hengjiang broke the silence in the hall.
"Master! Just now I discovered in the [Secret Records of the Wheel] that summoning [Ruyi Taoist Soldiers] requires one pillar of ninth-grade incense.
How long does it take for an ordinary believer to condense his willpower into a nine-grade incense stick?"
Zhang Ke nodded slightly: "General gods attach great importance to faith and willpower.
Daily practice, the sacrifice of meritorious instruments, projection of gods, etc. all require the power of faith.
So basically, believers can only eat without spitting out the faith and willpower they have gathered.
My approach is different from other gods.
In my opinion, the relationship between gods and believers should be interdependent.
If the hair is gone, how will the skin be attached?
Therefore, I only retain 30% of the 10% power of faith my believers have gathered.
10% of it belongs to me, and 10% will be used for the future cultivation of church believers.
The remaining 10% is used to maintain the daily consumption of the wish merit pool.
The remaining 70% of the power of faith will be converted into incense from the merit pool and fed back to believers.
Generally speaking, if a believer spends three hours in prayer every day, he can condense a nine-grade incense stick in one day.
But in order not to affect the normal life of ordinary people, I have made restrictions.
You can only pray three times a day, and each time should not last more than a quarter of an hour.
In this case, it will take about seven days to condense a column of ninth-grade incense."
Su Donghai hesitated and said: "If there were no restrictions on daily prayers, wouldn't it be possible to gather more power of faith?"
Zhang Ke replied: "If it were you, would you sit and pray for three hours a day?"
Su Donghai quickly shook his head.
Zhang Kedao: "This is the key point, every believer is an independent individual.
No one likes boring prayers, even the most devout believer.
Normally, morning and evening are the more appropriate times to pray throughout the day.
When you first wake up in the morning, praying for a quarter of an hour can clear your mind.
Praying at night can soothe distracting thoughts in people's minds and help them fall asleep.
Therefore, it is more appropriate to pray twice a day.
But some people still have plenty of time and can pray one more time every day.
I do this as a long-term solution to gradually make believers form the habit of praying in the morning and evening.
It becomes instinctive like eating, drinking, and sleeping.”
Lianshan and others suddenly realized.
Zhang Ke continued: "Faith is a very strange thing, and it does not mean that it can only be produced by praying devoutly.
Believers gain benefits from the [Secrets of the Wheel] platform every time.
In this kind of transaction where you come and go, the power of faith will naturally be born.
Although the power of this belief is very weak, it does exist.
Don't underestimate this number. Over time, this will become a huge resource of willingness.
After all, the number of followers of the Rotating Wheel Church will continue to grow in the future.
Your cultivation needs and the daily consumption of the Wheel-turning Church.
The power of faith generated by this transaction and the faith and willpower generated by believers’ prayers are sufficient.”
Everyone listened with rapt attention and finally understood the cause and effect.
Lian Shan asked curiously: "Master! How strong are you?"
Zhang Ke laughed "haha".
"In this world, I am blessed by the power of faith of millions of believers, and I have few opponents in the Yuanshen realm."
He paused and then said: "However, it won't work if you wait until I leave the Blue Sky Realm.
After all, across countless realms, the power of faith cannot be of much help to me."
Hengjiang pondered: "If Master returns to his own realm, can he also develop followers like this?"
Zhang Ke shook his head and smiled bitterly: "In my realm, there are many masters, and each sect has its own territory under its control.
If he dared to preach like this and rob believers from other sects, he would have died long ago and not even the scum would be left.
That is to say, a realm like the Blue Sky Realm, which is like loose sand and is plagued by demonic insects, is the most suitable place to preach."
Su Donghai and others savored the meaning of Zhang Ke's words.
Zhang Kedao: "Is there anything else you want to know?"
Hengjiang and others looked at each other and shook their heads.
Zhang Kedao: "In this case, I will tell you the foundation of our sect and the situation of being a teacher.
My real name is Zhang Ke, my Taoist name is Keji, also known as Ruyi! I belong to..."
In the main hall, Zhang Ke told the three disciples little by little about his situation with the sect.
At the same time, in another place, Zhang Ke's body was troubled by another thing.
...
In the secret realm of the sand sea.
Zhang Ke has stayed here for thirteen years.
After he recast the Dao Foundation, he never left the secret realm for the sake of the entire space of emery.
It took him three years to finally figure out the situation in the Sand Sea Secret Realm.
Through deduction and calculation of the secret realm, Zhang Ke discovered that the entire sand sea secret realm turned out to be an innate spiritual treasure.
When he constructed the shape of the secret realm in Niwan Palace, he suddenly discovered the truth.
Hourglass!
This is an hourglass-shaped innate spiritual treasure.
Carefully recall all the details of entering the secret realm.
The place where you first enter the secret realm is obviously the top of the hourglass.
And the circular hole he encountered when he was pulled into the desert.
It must be the middle waistband where the sand flows through the hourglass.
As for the desert below the hole, it is the other end of the hourglass.
The pillar of fire that reaches the sky that I saw at the bottom of the hourglass has never been understood why there are many circular marks on it.
At this moment, I finally understood that this pillar of fire was the timing tool of the hourglass.
The rings are obviously the timing scales.
The power of innate magnetism should be the core of controlling the flipping of the hourglass.
After smoothing all this out, Zhang Ke roughly deduced the reason for the secret realm.
This innate spiritual treasure may be somewhat damaged, but it is much better than the [Thousand Layers of Mirrors Near Me].
Because the Lingbao was damaged for some unknown reason, there was a flaw in the operation of the Lingbao.
This is also the reason why practitioners can use the pass token to enter the secret realm.
Although the innate magnetic power in the secret realm makes it impossible for all practitioners who enter the secret realm to escape.
But there is always someone who can reveal the situation.
So this secret realm of the sand sea became a place similar to a prison.
The innate spiritual treasure isolates the inside and outside, and the souls of practitioners who die there cannot escape.
Over time, some souls were transformed into ghosts for unknown reasons.
This secret realm of sand sea has become a dangerous place.
This is the truth that Zhang Ke deduced based on his current understanding.
There may be deviations in some places, but the general picture should be correct.
Thinking that the place where you are is an innate spiritual treasure.
Zhang Ke was so excited that he almost screamed.
In the past, because he could not use magic weapons, he never paid much attention to these things.
But now he has recast the foundation and all hidden dangers have been eliminated.
If God cannot take it, you must suffer the consequences. If you fail to do so at the right time, you will suffer the consequences.
Zhang Ke originally wanted to use the Hunyuan Qi in his body to control the power of Yuan Magnet and command the Qi of the Five Elements to refine this innate spiritual treasure.
But during the refining process, he suddenly discovered that this innate spiritual treasure was actually a dead object.
The core spirituality has somehow been completely wiped out.
And the fire pillar that reaches the sky for timekeeping has disappeared.
Zhang Ke had a vague feeling that this pillar of fire should be absorbed by Wanxiang.
The lack of two important elements meant that this innate spiritual treasure could not be refined and collected.
This discovery really depressed Zhang Ke for a long time.
But if he gave up just like that, he would really feel unwilling to do so.
Then the natal talisman in the advanced state is disintegrated and integrated with the entire secret realm.
This was not a whim move on his part, but the result of careful derivation.
The most basic component of the construction of natal talisman is emery.
In addition, the Hunyuan Qi in his body at this moment can control the power of innate magnetism, and is supplemented by the core [ruyi] characteristic of the natal talisman.
This lays the foundation for the integration of the natal talisman and the secret realm.
Zhang Ke also focused all his energy on this and guided the integration of the two wholeheartedly.
This process lasted for nearly three years.
Finally, this hourglass-shaped innate spiritual treasure and the natal talisman were fused together.
But at the same time, a new trouble arose.
When the two merged, the natal talisman spirit "Nannan" was also forced to blend into it.
After the two are merged, the rank of the natal talisman is too different from that of the innate spiritual treasure.
As a result, Zhang Ke was unable to put away his natal talisman.
