Chapter 242 The Artifact of the Kingdom
"The way of luck?"
Fang Chen was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted: "You mean, let the Immortal Dao Computer gather the destiny of the Immortal Dynasty?"
"That's not the case. Luck doesn't concentrate on dead things. Only the power of faith similar to it can."
Yue Yunni shook her head and recalled another kind of power.
The power of faith.
According to Tianyu's previous statement, the way of Shinto practice is to rely on the power of faith.
"According to this gentleman's description, the Immortal Path Computer is closely related to every citizen of the Immortal Dynasty. In this case, it can be used to gather their faith and use the power of faith to advance the Immortal Path Computer."
Seeing Fang Chen was silent, Yue Yunni continued to speak.
"The Immortal Dao Computer is not a god, so how can it enable the people of the Immortal Dynasty to develop the power of faith?"
After reacting, Fang Chen still raised new questions.
"It is not the belief in God that generates the power of faith, but the power of faith that gives birth to God."
Yue Yunni smiled and said something that Fang Chen felt made a lot of sense.
"In other words, we are going to use the power of faith to turn the Immortal Path Computer into a god?"
Based on Yue Yunni's words, Fang Chen also deduced her thoughts.
The Xiandao Computer condenses the power of faith to become a god, and can then continue to absorb the power of faith to grow, thus becoming more powerful as the Xian Dynasty develops.
This will also realize Lin Qingshan’s vision.
"Of course not. If the Xiandao Computer becomes a god, he will definitely break away from the control of the Xian Dynasty and even become another controller of the Xian Dynasty. To be precise, he will make the Xiandao Computer a god."
Another person who was very familiar with the ways of destiny and faith, Zhu Yueyao, cleared up Fang Chen's confusion.
"God's position?"
Fang Chen understood the meaning of this word, but he just didn't know how to do it.
Isn't it said that the power of faith will give birth to gods? How can it become a god?
"Let me explain in detail. We have done a lot of research on Shinto as a means to counter the Immortal Way.
“The merit of Shinto is that the more believers there are and the more loyal they are, the stronger the power of faith will be, which will allow the gods to gain great power in a short period of time.
"But on the other hand, every bit of faith power contains the believers' thoughts. Among every god's believers, the largest number are always shallow believers. Their thoughts are extremely complicated. Gods accept their faith power, and naturally they also have to accept the thoughts of these believers. Over time, they will be affected by the power of faith."
Zhu Yueyao said a lot in one breath, which also made Fang Chen understand the advantages and disadvantages of Shinto.
He suddenly thought of a word and said it directly: "Is the so-called incense poisonous?"
"That's right. I didn't expect you to know something about Shinto."
Zhu Yueyao nodded, and then continued to introduce to Fang Chen: "The gods have great power, so they are naturally unwilling to let their believers influence their thoughts, so they created the throne."
"To strip believers of their minds?"
Fang Chen also instantly guessed the function of this deity.
"That's right. The power of faith first enters the divine throne, where it washes away impurities, and is then absorbed by the gods. This pure power of faith is called divine power."
Looking at Fang Chen with appreciation, Zhu Yueyao nodded.
"Could it be that the former Moon Palace was your throne?"
Fang Chen suddenly remembered something and looked at Yue Yunni to ask.
"That's right. I'm afraid Tianyu doesn't understand either. He only knows that I cultivate my luck, but he doesn't know that I cultivate both luck and faith at the same time."
Yue Yunni nodded and acknowledged it.
"I said, even though the power of luck and the power of faith are similar, if you only cultivate luck, you two won't be called gods."
Tianyu was not surprised by this. He had guessed it a long time ago, but he had no evidence, so he only told the part he knew at that time.
"I understand the way of God, but how do you practice the way of destiny?"
Fang Chen is now more interested in the way of luck.
Tianyu said that there is little difference between the power of destiny and the power of faith, except that the former belongs to the collective and the latter to the individual. Yue Yunni said that the power of destiny cannot be condensed on dead objects, but the power of faith can.
Obviously there is a difference between the two.
"Qi Luck doesn't require cultivation. It is related to the overall state of power. The most important point is to have a treasure that can gather Qi Luck together. Some people call it a dragon vein, and some people call it a national treasure. In fact, they are all the same thing."
Yue Yunni is the most knowledgeable about destiny, so she answered Fang Chen's questions.
"Condensing luck? Can't luck be condensed on dead things? This dragon vein or national treasure doesn't sound like a living thing."
Fang Chen also wanted to get to the bottom of it.
"Its function is to gather luck, but it does not gather luck in oneself. After the luck is gathered, someone needs to take it over, usually the leader of this force."
Yue Yunni smiled, knowing that Fang Chen had misunderstood, and corrected his idea.
"Is that so? Then what is the difference between the power of luck and the power of faith?"
Fang Chen nodded and continued to ask.
"As mentioned before, the power of faith can be transformed into divine power through the transformation of the divine position, but the power of luck can be directly absorbed by the person who inherits the luck. With luck, the speed of cultivation will be improved and the strength will be greatly enhanced."
Yue Yunni first gave a brief introduction, and then added: "And just as gods can use their divine power to bless believers, leaders who inherit luck can also use the power of luck to bless their people. In comparison, the former's blessing will make believers more fanatical, while the latter will not have any effect on their personality."
"It sounds like Shinto's ability to deceive people is stronger."
After listening, Fang Chen also gave his own evaluation.
"Of course, they rely on this to increase their strength, and they must brainwash their followers."
Yue Yunni also agreed with Fang Chen's evaluation.
"Come to think of it, could it be that the Moon God Palace is also the dragon vein of the Fairy World?"
After understanding the power of luck, Fang Chen suddenly thought of another possibility.
"Smart, indeed. The Moon Palace is not only the seat of God, but also the dragon vein of the entire fairy world. It connects every believer through the spiritual light in the moonlight, consolidating their faith and luck."
Since so much has been explained, if Fang Chen cannot guess this, Yue Yunni would instead doubt whether Fang Chen can shoulder the responsibility of being the savior chosen by Heaven.
"So, can the Xiandao computer also take on similar responsibilities?"
Fang Chen suddenly had an idea. Although the Immortal Computer was not like the Moon God Palace, which could illuminate every living being with moonlight, it could still connect with the people of the Immortal Dynasty through the Jade Slips.
"Of course you can. Tianyu designed it this way, and he must have had this idea in mind for a long time."
Yue Yunni looked at Tianyu. After learning about the function of the Xiandao computer, she vaguely guessed Tianyu's plan.
"Senior, you are wise. However, I only thought of the power of destiny. I never thought that you really mastered the way of God."
Tianyu nodded and admitted it frankly.
"The computer cannot condense the power of luck in itself. If we only know the power of luck, how can we strengthen it?"
After hearing Tianyu say this, Fang Chen became very curious.
"The power of destiny has the same effect as divine power. Gods can use divine power to strengthen everything. Since you have inherited the power of destiny, you can naturally use it to strengthen everything. Senior Moon God only gave the example of believers and people."
Tianyu then explained directly to Fang Chen.
"I see. Then Senior Tianyu, please bring Deputy City Lord Lin with you to build this national treasure for the Immortal Dynasty."
Fang Chen understood, bowed to Tianyu and expressed his thoughts.
"National Divine Artifact? This name is quite appropriate. Don't worry, as long as Senior Moon God is willing to share the secrets of the divine way and the power of destiny, I will naturally help you."
Tianyu repeated the four words Fang Chen said and agreed to his request.
"Of course, no problem. The current situation requires us to work together. Bring me a jade slip and I will engrave the two secret techniques on it."
Yue Yunni also agreed happily.
Today is the second update, 2,000 words, and there are still 10,000 words left to be owed.
