529 The Extent of The Divine Sense’s Power
“Many thanks for the senior’s guidance. This junior knows what to do.”
Lin Qiye bowed to express his gratitude.
The Dragonman laughed as his body began to fade.
“Good luck, little fellow. I look forward to the day when our imprints will meet again.”
The voice reverberated in Lin Qiye’s ears, but the Dragonman Dharma gradually disappeared.
Lin Qiye looked up into the sky and mumbled, “The realm above the Supreme Being?”
His eyes burst with light, full of anticipation for the future.
…
A month after Black Dragon Alliance Army failed their invasion.
In the Holy King City, all the humans and fiends who believed in Lin Qiye were excitedly discussing the war.
Although the final battle no longer had anything to do with them, the participants had witnessed the scene of Butcher, Chang Shi, and the others fighting against immortal-level fiend lords.
If even they could face an Immortal Level existence head-on, just how strong was Lin Qiye?
Every time a crisis appeared, it felt like a disaster, but Lin Qiye resolved it.
After a few rounds, Lin Qiye’s background became more outrageous.
Everyone who believed in him thought he was the most powerful and mysterious existence.
“Lord Holy Infant must have carried the world’s will. He is the embodiment of the world!”
“Lord Holy Infant’s power is boundless! Lord Holy Infant is unrivaled!”
“Believe in Lord Holy Infant for eternal life!”
The people’s faith in Lin Qiye was outrageous.
If Lin Qiye had not ordered his fiend soldiers to suppress them, they would have given up everything they had.
“My Lord, the incense offerings have peaked recently, and the people are well-fed. Many people want to come to Tata Village to see your elegance with their eyes.”
“I heard that in Wuxiang Village, there was someone who planned to sacrifice himself two days ago, hoping that you could bless his descendants.”
“There has been some chaos in Holy King City recently. After the last war, some forces have begun to split up. Many people have heard about Gui Nian and have been trying to join you through him.”
Chang Shi and the others reported the recent situation to Lin Qiye.
Gui Nian had returned to Holy King City a few days after the battle.
Because he had fought with an Immortal Level fiend lord in the Great War, he had been in the limelight for a while. On the day he returned to Holy King City, he was recognized by some members of the forces who had gone to the battlefield that day.
Lin Qiye looked calm as he listened to Chang Shi’s report. However, he was thinking about how to deal with the situation.
The people’s faith in him had reached a state of madness. If he did not guide them in time, they might go astray and developed into a cult.
‘They even did something like offering a sacrifice…’
Lin Qiye shook his head slightly.
Other than the fiend soldiers and the people under his command, he was more concerned about two things.
“Is there any news from the Holy King City and the Black Dragon?”
He was now fusing with his clone, preparing to transform it into the body of the Thunder God most suitable for him.
His soul and clone could not move around casually, so the Black Dragon and the forces of the Holy King City naturally became a potential threat.
“Milord, the Black Dragon and the others seemed to have been scared out of their wits last time. After losing a million soldiers, they’ve already retreated. The Holy King City has also been well-behaved recently. Because they have seen your divine might, many disciples from various forces want to join us. However, without your approval, we dare not make any decisions.”
Chang Shi replied respectfully.
“Those willing to join us can stay as long as they follow the rules. In the future, you will have full authority to decide on such matters.”
“In addition, regarding the problem of the citizens causing chaos because of their faith, let the members under our command keep a close eye on them. Don’t let them do anything out of line,” Lin Qiye said as he looked at them.
“Yes.”
After Chang Shi and the others left, Lin Qiye began to prepare to deal with the problems caused by the people’s blind faith.
Some so many people believed in him that he had to set up some standards.
Although he had never thought of creating a sect, the general trend had pushed him to the wind. If he did not come up with a solution, it would not take long for problems to slowly appear among his believers and eventually lead to his destruction.
“It seems there’s no way to avoid the sect’s establishment. I really didn’t expect there would be a day when I would become a psychic.”
Lin Qiye laughed at himself.
In the past, he had always ridiculed those monks as quacks. He didn’t expect to become the head of a quack one day.
To ensure that the believers would not go astray and develop into a cult, Lin Qiye spent more than half a month deleting and editing before finally drafting a set of relatively complete doctrines.
It included the rules the believers had to abide by and provided appropriate guidance for blind faith.
As for how to spread the teachings, Lin Qiye wanted to spread them through Chang Shi and others. However, after thinking about it, he found a better way.
“My soul has basically fused with this body. Now that my divine sense has returned to one, my mental strength is comparable to an Immortal Realm expert. If I used the energy gathering formation, the coverage area of my divine sense would be extremely large…”
The divine sense of an ordinary Immortal Realm powerhouse could cover a range of hundreds of miles. Lin Qiye had been able to do this when he had just broken through to the Incarnation Realm.
Now that his mental power had improved, he could not help but be curious as to what level it could reach.
With a thought, Lin Qiye immediately spread his divine sense and communicated with the energy-gathering formation. The strength of his divine sense suddenly increased.
A hundred miles…
A thousand miles…
In a few short breaths, the area covered by his divine sense had exceeded the scope of ordinary Immortal Realm experts, reaching a thousand miles.
However, this was not the limit. The coverage of his divine sense continued to expand, passing over the Holy King City and then reaching the border.
It spread for 3,000 miles before it slowly stopped and reached its limit.
‘The coverage range of this 3000 miles is probably more than 99% of the Immortal Realm experts!’
Lin Qiye was secretly shocked.
“Right now, the Holy King City territory is under my divine sense’s control. It might be effective to spread the teachings directly through spiritual fluctuations.”
Lin Qiye did not have much experience in preaching.
However, in his opinion, the stronger the means displayed, the more devout the believers would be and the higher obedience they would have.
Using mental power to spread the teachings to the believers was definitely enough to make the believers revere.
After all, the existences they believed in could directly connect to their thoughts. How many people in the world could do such a thing?
He did as he thought.
After Lin Qiye’s divine sense covered the Holy King City, he immediately spread his mental power.
The doctrine was condensed into mental fluctuations and spread into the sea of consciousness of every living being.
Of course, Lin Qiye’s control wasn’t enough to accurately identify hundreds of millions of living things.
Therefore, the humans, fiends, and even wild beasts and insects who were not under his command could feel the spiritual fluctuation.
“Big brother, did you hear any strange sounds?”
“You heard it too?”
More and more people looked up at the sky in confusion, as if the voice had come from the sky.
In the fields, the people working put down their farming tools almost at the same time and knelt to listen devoutly.
The town residents also stopped what they were doing. The people chatting no longer made a sound, and the people hurrying on the road no longer moved.
The world seemed to have fallen into silence.
As the mental fluctuation seeped through, everyone knew that it was the Temple Master of the Holy Infant Temple personally preaching.
“City Lord, we’ve just received news that the Evil Slayer Sect and a few other major forces have encountered the same situation as us.”
“Report!”
“City Lord, it’s not just the forces in our city. The tens of millions of residents in the Holy King City should have felt the mental energy fluctuations.”
In the City Lord’s office, after hearing the report from his subordinate, the City Lord’s expression turned from anger to shock.
He had thought Lin Qiye was targeting the few factions in Holy King City and was trying to poach them.
He did not expect him to use his mental power indiscriminately, covering the entire territory of Holy King City!
“How is this possible?!”
The City Lord could not help but grip the armrest of his chair tightly.
“Holy King City’s territory spans thousands of miles. Could it be that his divine sense can cover thousands of miles?”
As an Immortal Realm expert, his divine sense could cover an area of six to seven hundred miles.
To be able to cover thousands of miles with his divine sense… Could it be that the Holy Infant Temple Master was a Celestial?
