Myriad Paths of the Dragon Emperor

Chapter 4559: Chapter 4559-power of faith

Lu Ming was certain that the statue was of the heavenly human tribe.

”Could it be that the gods that ocean sect was talking about are the heavenly human tribe?”

Lu Mingʼs heart stirred.

This was highly possible.

The flame clan was born from this mainland.

In the universe ruins, the laws and profound mysteries were chaotic in the past, but only in the recent dozens of star years did they become more orderly. Some places were able to give birth to some races.

In other words, the history of the fire clan was only a few dozen star years at most.

Cultivating from nothing to something in a few dozen star years and slowly groping around wouldnʼt make him any stronger.

The cultivation of the strongest person in the fire clan was probably not that high.

Lu Ming sensed that the highest cultivation level in this village was only virtual God-level.

On the other hand, if the heavenly human tribe were to descend on this mainland, their lowest cultivation base would be at the ninth level divine Emperor realm or the Divine Master realm. In the eyes of the fire clan, they were no different from gods.

As long as the powerhouses of the heavenly human tribe showed some skills, it was normal for them to be worshipped by the Fire Tribe like gods.

alright, Timeʼs Up. Let the prayer begin!

There was an old man below the statue. He said respectfully to the statue, then knelt in front of the statue and bowed deeply.

Everyone else in the courtyard, including ocean sect, bowed deeply and began to pray.

Naturally, Lu Ming did not do so. How could he kneel down and worship the statue of the heavenly human tribe?

He stood there and watched silently.

The villagers here were all praying wholeheartedly. Hence, no one noticed that Lu Ming was still standing.

After a while, Lu Ming discovered a shocking scene.

He realized that when the villagers started to pray, they seemed to resonate with the statue. Lu Ming circulated the forbidden power into his eyes and could clearly see that there was a thread on the villagers that was connected to the statue. Something seemed to be flowing along this thread and gathering on the statue. A layer of hazy glow appeared on the statue.

”This ... Could it be the legendary power of faith? The heavenly human tribe is collecting the power of faith?”

Lu Ming was shocked.

He had once read in ancient books that in the early days of the heavenly Palace era, there was a kind of cultivation method that was popular for a time.

That was the cultivation method of the power of faith.

Many experts would gather believers and power of faith from all over the place.

Many of them had followers all over the life planets and even the small worlds.

However, the cultivation method of the power of belief had a huge drawback. It was fine in the early stages, but the later the cultivation, the harder it was to control and the easier it was to be devoured.

After all, the power of faith came from countless different living beings and contained different thoughts.

&Nbsp; when it reached a certain level, even top-class experts would find it difficult to control it. Their bodies would be affected and might even suffer a backlash from the power of faith. In the lightest case, they would be heavily injured, and in the worst case, they would die.

Therefore, over time, no one cultivated this kind of cultivation method anymore. It was almost extinct.

He didnʼt expect to see the heavenly human tribe collecting the power of faith here.

”What is the heavenly human tribe trying to do? Is it for cultivation or for something else?”

Lu Ming furrowed his brows and pondered.

The surroundings were silent, and everyone was praying wholeheartedly.

No, there was one person who didnʼt pray wholeheartedly, and that was ocean sect.

Lu Ming realized that the thread connecting ocean sectʼs body to the statue was very faint. It was almost non-existent, as if it would disappear at any moment.

”Ocean sect, this fellow, claims to believe in gods, but. ʼm afraid he doesnʼt think so in his heart ...”

Lu Ming smiled faintly.

The threads were very faint, indicating that ocean sect wasnʼt completely focused on this, but was only putting on an act.

Lu Ming watched quietly. The prayer only ended after three hours.

The old man under the statue, who was the village chief, was the first to end his prayer. He opened his eyes and stood up. He raised his arms and was about to announce the end of the prayer.

Then, he saw Lu Ming standing there with his back straight and his eyes closed.

In fact, Lu Ming was secretly absorbing the black mist. He did not want to waste any time.

”You ... You actually dare to not pray, how bold!”

The village chief pointed at Lu Ming and roared.

This loud roar woke everyone up and they all looked at Lu Ming.

what? this person didnʼt even pray? heʼs too audacious!

this is blasphemy against the gods. He must be punished!

”I suggest we burn them alive on the stake!”

Many villagers roared.

Lu Ming dared to disrespect and blaspheme the gods. They were afraid. They were afraid that the gods would be furious and not protect them. They were even afraid that they would be punished. Therefore, they vented their anger on Lu Ming.

”Men, drag this person out and burn him to death!”

The village chief shouted.

Immediately, a few burly men stepped forward to take Lu Ming down.

Lu Mingʼs gaze turned cold.

The strongest in this village was only at the void God Realm, yet they wanted to kill him.

Even if he didnʼt make a move, QiuQiu, who was a ninth level God Emperor, could destroy this village in one move.

”Wait, village chief, wait!”

At this moment, hai Zong shouted and quickly stood in front of Lu Ming.

”Ocean sect, are you trying to protect him?”

Village chief said coldly.

village chief, tianyun isnʼt from our village!

Hai Zong explained.

I know heʼs not from our village, but even if heʼs not, as long as he enters our village, he must pray. This is the rule set by the gods.

Village chief said coldly.

”Village chief, tianyunʼs hometown is very remote, and it has not yet been enveloped by the light of the gods. Also, the gods have also made a rule that under special circumstances, there is no need to pray. Tianyun is heavily injured and needs to recuperate at all times. If he prays, it will only worsen his injuries. This is in line with the rules set by the gods, and I believe that the gods will not blame him.”

Hai Zong argued loudly.

The village chief and the other villagers sized Lu Ming up carefully.

Lu Ming did look like he was in a bad state. Although the wounds on his body had recovered a little over the past few days, he was still very thin and his aura was weak. He did look like he had suffered a great loss of vitality.

The village chief and the others heaved a sigh of relief.

There was no need to pray when one was seriously injured. The gods did have such a rule, and he believed that they would not blame him.

alright, haizong, take him away. If his injuries arenʼt healed, he doesnʼt need to come again. However, once heʼs recovered, as long as heʼs still within the village, he must come. Otherwise, heʼll be sentenced to death!

The village chief said sternly.

”Yes, yes yes!”

Ocean sect nodded repeatedly, then gave Lu Ming a look and left the place with him.

After they had walked far away, hai Zong let out a long breath and said, that was a close call just now. Itʼs a good thing your injuries havenʼt healed yet. Otherwise, it would have been troublesome.

Lu Ming smiled and did not mind. He said, How long have you been praying like this? are you praying like this in other places? ”

”Itʼs been a long time. Itʼs been passed down for many generations. It must have been at least tens of thousands of years.”

”As far as I know, any place that is covered by the light of the gods must pray.”

Hai Zong said.

Lu Ming nodded silently in his heart. The heavenly human tribe had excavated the stellarsky region about tens of thousands of years ago.
