Just as Feng Qi was deep in thought, the door was pushed open.

He looked up and realized that it was the owner of the fog.

Looking at the owner of the fog who was still wearing tattered clothes and a smile on its face, he couldn’t help but ask.

“Has it ended?”

“Emerging from seclusion, the future holds promise to a divine technique.”

As it spoke, the owner of the fog walked to the desk and sat down.

Hearing this, Feng Qi could not help but roll his eyes.

“What are you researching?” The owner of the fog cast its gaze at the documents on the desk.

“Analyze the composition of human faith at this stage.”

Hearing this, the owner of the fog immediately nodded.

“You need to concentrate on this aspect. We have chosen the path of hero worship to ascend to godhood. Essentially, it conflicts with the faith in these gods. It can even be considered the opposite.”

“After all, pragmatically speaking, the faith in these gods is illusory. If you wish to gain more faith, you have to find a way to undermine the faith in these gods.”

“After all, there’s only one piece of cake. If our believers increase, the number of believers in other faiths will decrease.”

As it spoke, the owner of the fog asked curiously.

“Have you found anything after looking at the composition of modern humans’ faith?”

“There’s an unexpected discovery.” As he spoke, Feng Qi handed the information about the Dark God Sect to the owner of the fog.

After receiving the information, the owner of the fog started flipping through it with doubts.

A moment later, the owner of the fog looked up at him.

“Do you think that there’s a domain faction behind the Dark God Sect that’s obtaining the power of faith?”

“Yes, I think so.” He immediately nodded and continued.

“However, there’s one thing that can’t be explained. If there’s a domain faction behind the Dark God Sect, why would the Spiritual Energy Race in the Former Days City sit back and do nothing? After all, this is a domain faction that has developed in their territory. Aren’t they worried about the threat this faction might pose?”

“Have you thought of a possibility? What if this Dark God Sect is part of the Spiritual Energy Race’s future plan?”

The owner of the fog’s words made Feng Qi fall into deep thought.

He suddenly remembered something.

This matter was related to the monk’s historical identity.

In the Star City database, the monk from 1500 years later was listed as a “spiritual mentor” for humans. He spread the message of mental power and encouraged people to resist invasion through a practical perspective.

For this goal, the monk took the initiative to relinquish his position as the leader of the Prajna Domain Combat Team.

At the time, he had wondered why the monk had done this.

As the leader of the Prajna Domain Combat Team, he could continue to lead his members to fight at the front line.

What made him drop his burdens and turn into a spiritual mentor?

But he had not asked the monk that question.

After all, the monk had not stepped out of the school gate when he confessed the truth to him.

It had been many years since he became a spiritual mentor.

The monk’s current goal appeared to align with his behavior.

The monk’s goal was to challenge the theory of faith and establish a hero worship centered around real-life human heroes.

A possible guess appeared in his mind.

The main battlefield of the Prajna Domain Combat Team led by the monk was near the Former Days Supply Area.

The birthplace of the Dark God Sect and its main believers came from Former Days City.

Perhaps the monk had discovered the secret of the Dark God Sect when he was leading the combat team, but he could not reveal these secrets to the world.

He was afraid that the bloody truth would crush the mental defense of all mankind.

So he chose another way to save humanity.

There were only two ways to defeat the Dark God Sect.

He could directly confront and defeat the forces behind the Dark God Sect or undermine the faith of humans in the sect, rendering their plans useless.

The first method might be limited by the strength of the Prajna Domain Combat Team and the impact it might have on the world.

The second approach involved persuading people to abandon their belief in the gods and shift towards a faith rooted in reality.

Observing the monk’s actions after stepping down as the team leader, it became evident that he had embraced the second method, focusing on encouraging people to shift from faith in the gods to a more grounded faith in reality.

Unlike him, the owner of the fog wanted to crush the faith of the gods so that it could obtain more sources of faith.

However, the monk’s actions were purely to save all of humanity and become a tool for the domain faction to grow.

This explained his series of confusing actions in the historical sources.

Outsiders might not think much of the monk’s change.

Considering Feng Qi’s understanding of the monk, it seemed unlikely that he would undertake a seemingly thankless task unless it held significant meaning or importance to him.

As for the exact truth, he had no way of knowing for now. This was only his guess based on the current information.

At this moment, the owner of the fog interrupted his thoughts.

“Maybe delving deeper into the Dark God Sect will provide more insights. The information we have is limited. Nevertheless, regardless of the details, the Dark God Sect will stand as your adversary on the path of faith.”

Hearing this, Feng Qi could not help but nod.

There were only two guesses about the Dark God Sect now.

Firstly, this faction did not have the support of a domain faction. The growth of this faith faction was purely a coincidence.

Secondly, there was a domain faction behind this faction that was obtaining the power of faith.

As for the exact answer, it remained to be investigated.

Time passed quickly as they discussed the situation of the Dark God Sect.

At noon the next day.

After lunch, Feng Qi changed into casual clothes and left Tiger Soul Research Institute’s headquarters with the owner of the fog.

Their goal for this trip was to the Dark God Sect’s branch in the eastern district of Star City.

He decided to go personally and investigate.

Perhaps he could discover the truth there.

A few hours later, the military vehicle stopped by the roadside half a mile away from the Dark God Sect’s branch.

Feng Qi and the owner of the fog alighted the vehicle.

For the sake of keeping a low profile, they proceeded on foot.

Following the route to the Dark God Sect’s Star City branch, they walked for a moment and saw the building.

The Dark God Sect’s building was unique.

The rooftop was adorned with a scarlet crystal made from an unidentified material, casting vibrant hues in the sunlight.

“It’s quite impressive.” The owner of the fog grinned.

“Is there something wrong with this crystal?”

“There’s no Spiritual Qi fluctuation on it. It’s just an ordinary crystal in a domain field.”

After hearing the owner of the fog’s explanation, Feng Qi nodded.

They walked up the stairs to the building of the Dark God Sect and entered it.

In front lay an elongated, narrow corridor adorned with murals on either side.

There were 18 murals.

These murals depicted the birth of the Dark God, the creation of the world, the origin of various entities, the emergence of humanity, the dissemination of knowledge, and other related narratives.

Moving forward, a grassy garden unfolded, adorned with lush green plants.

Various-colored flowers adorned the outskirts of the grassy expanse. At its center stood eight formidable statues.

At this moment, many believers knelt in front of the eight statues and worshiped piously.

Feng Qi understood the origins of these eight statues through the information.

According to the information, these eight statues were first-rank gods created by the Dark God, namely the Eight Evil Mighty.

Despite being labeled as evil, their actions were never malevolent. Instead, their responsibility was to uphold the equilibrium of the world and strive for a state of perfection.

This allowed the Dark God Sect to be established and promoted successfully.

It had something to do with the teachings of this sect.

At the very least, the doctrine consistently advocated positive values. It continually emphasized the importance of maintaining a compassionate heart and approaching life with positivity and optimism.

It was precisely because of this that the Dark God Sect could promote itself in other cities without any hindrance.

If it were a sect with a warped ideology, the major cities wouldn’t provide a conducive environment for its development.

However, Feng Qi had reason to believe that there might be a conspiracy behind this.

Just like Flesh Sacrifice, it had a glamorous appearance and was even known as a super cultivation technique that could change human cultivation.

However, this super cultivation technique was essentially just a method for the owner of the fog to harvest all of humanity and a large number of domain factions.

Perhaps there was also a group of people controlling the Dark God Sect to extract the power of human faith to grow.

Puzzled, they continued along the marble path in the garden.

After walking out of the garden, his vision suddenly became clear.

It was a circular plaza that was paved with cobblestones. At this moment, dozens of believers were kneeling on the ground and worshiping the statue over 30 feet tall in the center of the plaza.

This statue was the Dark God.

Upon seeing the Dark God statue, Feng Qi inexplicably found it remarkably familiar.

I think I’ve seen this somewhere before.

As he sized it up, he suddenly remembered where he had seen it before.

Although the characteristics of the statue were slightly different, he still recognized it.

Wasn’t this the statue worshiped by the goat-headed demons?!
