I am a living immortal.
Chapter 204 Faith, Authority
"I know all this, but why can't I respond?"
"Because the country is about to fall, you will be roasted on the fire. Most gods will find it troublesome and cut off contact. Some, like you, will only make brief contact and invest their power."
“It’s all a choice.”
Taihong understood. Although he was not conspicuous in the mountains and forests, he had also witnessed the reckless struggle at the end of the dynasty. It was a determination and recklessness that was very scary.
"What should we do?"
"Don't worry. The current Yan Dynasty is still far from reaching its peak. After reaching the peak, it will last for a while before starting to weaken. This is a long process."
"Over hundreds of years, many things will be forgotten and become vague, turning into legends whose truth or falsehood is unknown. Who really believes in this legend completely?" Su Mu pointed out the key point.
"Overall, it's good for you. The power of faith is very magical."
Taihong breathed a sigh of relief. The power of faith was dispensable to him, but that didn't mean faith was useless. On the contrary, when your virtue matched your position, faith would definitely be a great help to the gods.
Speaking of faith, Su Mu thought of his clone, the Holy Lord of the Way, who relieves disasters and brings all kinds of blessings.
It seemed like something big was happening over there.
Even this clone was involved.
However, Su Mu believed that as his clone, it should be able to solve the problem, so he did not pay too much attention to it.
This time, just because of his faith, Su Mu casually asked, "Do you know about the death of the Shinto god?"
Taihong gave him a surprised look.
"Fellow Daoist, can you sense it from such a long distance?"
"No, one of my parts was involved."
"This..." Taihong's face became serious as he organized his words.
"I don't know much. I only know that a divine monarch died. I don't know the rest. The place where it happened is too far away from here. It's just that the fluctuations were too shocking. My strength has increased, so I can barely sense some of the fluctuations."
Seeing Tai Hong so serious, Su Mu comforted him, "Don't worry, my clone is fine. I just asked, but the situation turned out to be like this. It doesn't look optimistic."
"It's not optimistic, it's simply the sky falling and the earth collapsing."
"How many of these people have yet to return from this world's silence, and how many are known to exist? The fall of a divine monarch, even if you're thousands of miles away, can still feel the sorrow of heaven and earth."
"I think my strength is pretty good, but it's just barely enough to reach the upper limit. It will take another thousand years to stabilize. You can imagine how difficult it is."
Su Mu nodded: "Thank you for your reminder, fellow Daoist. I will pay attention to it."
Seeing that Su Mu was not joking, Tai Hong breathed a sigh of relief: "Daoyou's clone? Is it also a divine way?"
"Yes, come to think of it, the seal you gave me is still in the hands of my clone." Su Mu did not hide anything and told the story of Dayu.
"I stumbled upon the position of a Divine Lord by accident."
"By accident?"
Tai Hong shook his head and laughed, "You sound so easy, fellow Daoist. If someone could get the position of a Divine Lord by accident, wouldn't there be Divine Lords everywhere in the world?"
"I have underestimated you, fellow Daoist. Nowadays, there is hardly anyone who can attain the position of a Divine Lord."
Taihong can only be considered half-a-god. Although his strength is close to the limit, he has not been canonized by heaven and earth. Secondly, Taihong is a mountain god, and his strength can only be fully developed within the scope of Cangze Mountain. This is a constraint on his authority. "
"Speaking of which, do you have any ideas about expanding the authority of the Godhead?"
"Expand the authority of the Godhead?" Tai Hong was a little surprised. Could this be expanded?
"It should be possible." Su Mu said after thinking for a while.
"When I first gained the status of the Holy Lord of the Spiritually Enlightened and Benevolent Dao, who can relieve disasters and bring all blessings, one of my goals was to slay the demons, accelerate the transformation of the Dao Dynasty, and achieve the goal of relieving disasters at the lowest cost."
"However, he also used his demonic body to bless the heaven and earth, breaking the drought and causing the earth to revive, thus achieving his goal of breaking the disaster."
"As for all blessings, enlightenment, and benevolence, they are all due to faith."
“For all the people of the nations, it is a great blessing for those who seek peace to find it.”
"Clear thoughts, returning to the bright universe, this is spiritual enlightenment"
"Benevolence and kindness are the common understanding of the world. This is what we hope for, and it is also the way of benevolence."
Su Mu took a sip of wine and explained his honorific name one by one.
Just by listening to it, Tai Hong understood how great a thing Su Mu had done. He changed the laws of an area and stopped the rolling wheel of history. It was not as accidental as Su Mu said.
Then I heard Su Mu continue, "The first two are things I did, but the last three are not what I did, but what I felt or expected to do by faith."
"Do you understand, fellow Daoist?"
Su Mu's words were like a ray of light that cleared the fog, allowing Taihong to clearly see a path forward.
"So, as I said before, accepting faith isn't a bad thing. If you can subtly change the direction of your faith, perhaps when you truly attain the status of a Divine Lord, things will change."
"Of course, these are not all correct, but it doesn't hurt to try."
This was the inspiration Su Mu got from the local beliefs. For example, the old turtle he met at the beginning and the gods and deities that came later all verified this conjecture. Of course, this initial conjecture was also attributed to the inspiration from his previous life, that is, the Lord of Mount Tai. The changes in beliefs and the introduction of Buddhism were all subtly changing the division of power.
"Faith is magical and important to God."
"But I think it's better not to aim too high. These are just for the future. You still need time to settle down. Once you've completely digested what you've gained, it won't be too late to think about other things."
"I know." Taihong nodded and expressed his gratitude, then put the thought aside. He was not in a hurry. Perhaps, in Taihong's sense of time, he had just had the opportunity to climb yesterday, so no matter how anxious a person was, he would not be like this.
Su Mu understood Tai Hong, so she said this.
The Monkey King and the Tiger King, who were pouring wine on the side, didn't even dare to think about it. This was too high for them, too high.
This conversation was also a casual talk that came to mind suddenly.
After that, they toasted each other and talked about other topics. Both of them were very happy and excited.
The two chatted until it got dark, and Su Mu stood at the place where she had first attained enlightenment and looked down.
The lights at the foot of the mountain are already bright, just like stars falling on the earth.
He will not return to Fanyun Mountain today. Behind him, Taihong is looking into the distance, wondering what he is thinking.
Su Mu has been staying in Cangze Mountain these days and is not in a hurry to go back. She is living a very comfortable life.
Until one day, he looked up in the direction of Fuyun Mountain and saw that his fourteenth disciple seemed to be coming out of seclusion. He waved goodbye to Cangze Mountain with gifts all over his body.
