Regarding the idea of forming a divine system, the more Wang Xu thought about it, the more he felt it was right.
There is a saying called peach picking. You have to be a member of the system to pick peaches. If outsiders come, they will ruin the situation.
Wang Xuming asked himself, it is difficult to compete with the entire world of gods with one blow, but if he thinks about it carefully, he doesn't have to compete, so we can join in the same trend.
You are God, I am God, and everyone is God.
If the meat is rotten, let it rot in the pot. It has nothing to do with outsiders. I will play according to your rules. We all know the truth. You can't smash the pot before the meal is started.
Just setting up a divine system is not something you can do easily.
A complete pantheon must have its own set of ideas to promote itself.
The Light God System has said that those who believe in me will have eternal life.
The God of Death has said that those who believe in me will not fall into hell.
The God of Justice said that fairness and justice are with us.
What about you, what is your slogan?
Although slogans are used for propaganda and to deceive ordinary people, they also reflect the core values of a pantheon in disguise.
Only when believers recognize your slogan and agree with your values will they come to believe in you, and only then can the god system develop and grow.
Otherwise, why are so few people believing in the natural gods that advocate caring for nature, eating vegetarian food, and not killing animals?
Without him, there would be no mutual conspiracies in different ways.
Wang Xu felt that his wisdom theology could use the pursuit of knowledge as its slogan, but the specific divine words, the Bible, were definitely not something he could come up with. He needed an insider who was proficient in this.
After much thought, he settled on Priest Balk as the candidate.
Priest Balk is an elite priest in the Temple of Wealth, and he has taken the position of regional bishop. He must be extremely proficient in divine words and divine laws.
If we can get him to join us, it will be of great benefit to the development of the wisdom god system.
At least around the city of Saint Asona, Balke's reputation is still very high. With him acting as the chief priest of the Temple of Wisdom, the Temple of Wisdom will not be treated as an abyssal force by ordinary people.
Saint Assona, South District, Temple of Fortune
This is the second time Wang Xu has come to the South District Temple. Compared with the first time, today is not a Sunday, so there are not many believers coming and going. Only a few senior believers are praying in the temple.
Priest Balk seemed surprised to see Wang Xu coming, but he did not ask, but invited Wang Xu to his prayer room.
"Father, do you believe in divine grace?"
Sitting on the bench in the prayer room, Wang Xu, wearing a black cloak, looked at Father Balke with interest.
Father Balk didn't know why he asked this. His good priestly qualities made him affirmative immediately and replied: "God loves the world, and divine grace definitely exists, but divine grace consumes a lot of God.
That’s why it doesn’t appear to be that common.”
Wang Xu nodded lightly and added: "If I say that I have received divine grace and met the true God, and that the true God has given me an additional mission and asked me to spread the divine light for him, would you believe it?"
"True God?"
There was obvious disbelief on Balk's face, because the title True God can only be used by high-ranking gods.
Only high gods, main gods, and god kings can define themselves as true gods.
Going down, the fourth-level ordinary gods, the fifth-level low-level gods, and the sixth-level medium gods cannot be called true gods.
As far as he knew, it had been a long time since the world of gods had seen a new high-ranking god promoted. How could Wang Xu get the attention of a true god?
"A new pantheon is about to be born, our Lord is about to appear, and I have been given the mission by the true God to build a new temple in the world and spread the faith. Father Balk, I want to ask you to help me. In return, I will give
What you desperately need."
Wang Xu looked sincere, and Father Balk was stunned when he said this. It took him a long time to realize: "Are you crazy?"
"Of course not, I'm very sober now."
Wang Xu took out a bottle from his arms, placed it in front of Father Balk, and said with a smile: "If I remember correctly, you are ninety-seven years old this year. With your legendary strength, a hundred years is considered an advanced age.
.
If nothing unexpected happens, you will die within the next ten or twenty years, because the God of Death has made a pact with mankind, and the maximum lifespan of a strong person in the legendary level is 120 years.
And you obviously do not have the qualifications to become a demigod. Of course, even if you become a demigod, your life span is only 150 years, and you will still have to ascend to heaven once your life span is up.
The bottle of water in front of you is a treasure given to me by the true God, water of eternal life.
Although it cannot make people live forever, it can rejuvenate people, restore them to their youth, and provide them with a life span of another hundred years.
This bottle of eternal life water is a meeting gift from me. You can drink it, return to your youth, feel the feeling of youth, and feel the power of our Lord."
"It is impossible for such a thing to exist in the world. This is a blasphemy against the God of Death!"
Balk has a thousand disbeliefs. As the master of the death god system, the God of Death, his words are the law. He has made an agreement with mankind that if you don’t become a god, you will decay. So, even if you are a demigod, your soul will return as soon as your 150-year lifespan is up.
Hell.
There are only three ways to break the lifespan limit, one is to light the divine fire and become a god, the other is to preserve the memory and reincarnate, and the third is to change the race.
It's too difficult to light the divine fire, so I won't consider it for now.
Preserving memories for reincarnation involves too many risks, and the chances of success are very slim.
As for the last resort, it is also the most implemented.
The 150-year lifespan is the restriction imposed by the God of Death on humans. However, other races have much longer lifespans than humans due to innate problems.
For example, elves can generally live for thousands of years, and some high elves can even live for tens of thousands of years.
There are also giant dragons, undead races, and abyssal races, all of which have innate lifespans longer than humans.
Even if a third-level semi-god dragon cannot ignite the divine fire, it will be easy for him to live for tens of thousands of years.
This is especially true for the undead. As far as Balk knows, there is a secret realm in the north called the Immortal Sea. The commander of the Immortal Sea is a semi-god-level lich. He has ruled the Immortal Sea for more than 100,000 years. So far,
Still active in the world of gods.
But human beings are different. Legends are 120 years old and demigods are 150 years old. This is the chasm drawn by the God of Death for mankind.
Not even the gods can change this restriction. Of course, whether it is because they are unable to change or because they are afraid of death is another question.
"You can try it. I said this is a meeting gift for you. Even if you don't come to help my Lord, I won't let you pay the price."
Wang Xu raised his hand, indicating that Balk could drink it and try it.
Balk hesitated again and again, constantly persuading himself in his heart: "I'm just giving it a try, and I have no intention of betraying the goddess of wealth."
After reciting it several times, under the temptation of longevity, Balk drank the longevity water in one gulp.
Immortality water was created by Wang Xu using the Fountain of Youth. It is a castrated version of the Fountain of Youth. It cannot provide people with eternal life, but can only slightly rejuvenate them.
After one sip, under the witness of Wang Xu, Balk's wrinkles on his face smoothed out, and even his arms covered with age spots regained their youthful luster.
He stood up in disbelief, feeling that his whole body was full of strength, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off him.
This is what it feels like to be young, Balk remembers this feeling.
Take two quick steps and come to a mirror.
Looking at the young man in his twenties and thirties with a face full of vigor in the mirror, Balk couldn't help but stretched out his trembling hand and stroked his cheek over and over again.
"how do you feel?"
Wang Xu walked to Balk and looked at the young man in the mirror.
Balk swallowed. He couldn't describe his excitement and choked up: "It's great to be young!"
Back then, I peed three feet in the wind, but now my shoes are wet in the wind.
Only those who have loved, hated, and experienced will know the meaning of the sentence "It's good to be young."
"Our Lord is extremely generous. The water of eternal life you drank is just an inconspicuous gadget. Father Balk, I really want you to help me. I believe that with your talents and our Lord's grace, you will be the one you want in the future."
It is not impossible to ignite the divine fire."
"But I am a believer in the goddess!"
Faced with Wang Xu's temptation, Father Balke did not get dizzy, but said bitterly: "I have dedicated my whole life to the goddess, me."
"Don't refuse in a hurry. I can give you three days to think it over before you talk to me."
Wang Xu interrupted Father Balk, and then said: "Now, go and enjoy your second life."
"Second life?"
Balke's eyes moved slightly. Just as Wang Xu said, he dedicated his whole life to the goddess, but now he has a second life.
In this life, can I still
Father Balk stopped quickly, not daring to think any further.
He suddenly felt sad, because when he thought about it later, he admitted that his heart was moved.
"You are a devil!"
Feeling his faith being shaken, the expression on Balke's face became increasingly bitter.
Wang Xu disagreed with this and said with a smile: "God loves the world, and the devil also loves the world. How to define whether it is a god or a devil?"
Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second:
