I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong Chapter 532 - 494 The Home is Gone

According to the explanation of that female disciple, the whole incident stemd from Tian Lin’s doctrine.

Tian Lin’s preaching was that relying on oneself was better than relying on gods. In Beiyed County, even in the Southern State, rituals for praying to Zhu Rong and the Four Seasons Gods had been conducted many tis.

But in reality, these god-seeking rituals not only proved to be useless, but also beca a ans for villains to amass wealth and a burden that crushed the common people.

Therefore, as long as one grasped the laws of the growth of all things and understood the origin of the changes in the twenty-four solar terms,

then much could be achieved without asking the gods, promoting the harvest and growth of crops on one’s own.

Conversely, if one did not understand the laws of growth or the connection between solar terms and the land,

even with the help of the Four Seasons Gods, crops would still be wasted due to human inaction.

Many people benefited from the improvent of farming tools and the application of small magic in farming, naturally becoming interested in Tian Lin’s teachings.

In these tumultuous tis, the importance of food cannot be overstated.

There have long been rumors that after the migration of the Daqi Dynasty, this world has beco a Land of God Abandonnt.

This ans that this land had once received a divine punishnt.

The reason the Four Seasons Gods ignore this place is because of a heavenly mandate. From then on, this world had no Four Seasons Gods.

If the old Four Seasons Gods no longer exist, could new Four Seasons Gods be created?

The disciples of the New Heaven Sect have much to say about this issue.

Most people in the New Heaven Sect are Hua Hualangs, coming from various trades and professions. And the New Heaven Sect is essentially an organization of great tricksters.

Many in this group enjoy deceiving others, and there are plenty who easily fall for scams.

Creating a god for people to worship is the most effective way to unite a disorganized group.

Moreover, creating gods oneself is not a re fantasy!

Since ancient tis, there have been three ways for Land Gods, Mountain Gods, and River Gods to be appointed.

One way is a direct appointnt by the heavens, allowing any person, beast, or deceased to be enshrined as a deity.

Another is through the immortal gate and the court writing to the heavens, requesting a celestial appointnt.

The third is through folk rituals, with a large number of incense offerings and blessings; leveraging the power of incense, deities can be brought into existence from nothing—

However, such deities produced via the third thod, though the result of the people’s collective will, are intolerable to both the court and the heavenly court—

This kind of deity, unapproved by the court or heavenly court, is labeled as an Evil God, much like Hua Hualang.

During the Daqi Dynasty, such Evil Gods would be captured by the Demon Slayer Bureau, and lewd shrines would be destroyed.

But with the migration of the Daqi Dynasty, this world had long been abandoned by the heavenly court. Doesn’t this an the people of this world can create gods themselves without being detected by the heavenly court, let alone controlled by the Daqi Dynasty’s Demon Hunting Bureau?

So in the New Heaven Sect acted upon this imdiately; since Ju Mang and Zhu Rong, the Four Seasons Gods, ignored them, they would just create their own Four Seasons Gods.

To differentiate from Ju Mang, Zhu Rong, and others, they established a New Four Seasons God Temple.

Using local materials, they created statues based on Tian Lin’s appearance and physique, and these served as the ’doctrine’ for the new Four Gods Temple.

But when Tian Lin asked them to dismantle the New Four Gods Temple, they refused:

We built the temple on the Goddess Sect’s territory, and the elders of the Goddess Sect didn’t object, so why should a disciple from the Wenda Sect ddle in our affairs?

As for image rights and doctrine copyrights—well, in these tis, whoever has the bigger fist makes the rules.

The best solution for Tian Lin was to forcibly demolish the Four Gods Temple or kill those believers.

But killing was not sothing Monk Kong Wu would consent to, nor did Tian Lin himself find it necessary.

And dismantling the New Four Gods Temple was not as simple as it seed.

Because this new ’Four Gods Sect’ was not composed solely of people from the New Heaven Sect—there were even so Outer and Inner Disciples of the Goddess Sect who are followers of this Four Gods Sect.

These people are essentially masters of the Goddess Sect; unless Tian Lin wanted to completely fall out with the Goddess Sect, he couldn’t forcibly deal with the Four Gods Temple on their turf.

"Utter nonsense!"

After understanding the whole situation, the Great Elder smacked the table and said, "Does our Goddess Sect have no founder to follow, that we’d listen to those New Heaven Sect people and bow to a few stone statues?"

The Second Elder, on the side, remained calm and composed:

"The Immortal Tree was taken by the old ancestor, and with the Fairy Cave lost from the Goddess Sect, combined with the attacks from the New Heaven Sect, it’s natural for disciples within the sect to feel uneasy—originally, we should have stayed to comfort them, but at the ti, we were busy with matters of the sect’s secret realm.

During this period, all sect disciples were in fear, so it’s quite normal that soone took advantage of the situation. In the end, since we left, it’s our fault for choosing a monk as the leader!"

The Second Elder’s words largely blad the Great Elder for arbitrarily appointing Monk Kong Wu as the leader.

But it was indeed a decision the Great Elder had long made.

Though Monk Kong Wu was sowhat dim-witted, his lack of malice was a rarity. Moreover, as long as he stood on the moral high ground, Monk Kong Wu could be utilized by them.

Additionally, Monk Kong Wu not only possessed an Immortal Artifact but was also connected with the Little Leiyin Temple—

In the future, if the Goddess Sect wanted to leave this small world, having Monk Kong Wu’s help would make things much easier.

"What has Master Mage been up to during this ti of New Four Gods Sect’s preaching?"

After the Great Elder posed the question, the female disciple made a sowhat peculiar face and responded: "Master Kong Wu is preaching, distributing porridge through charity, and also spreading Buddhist Law within the sect."

This sentence stunned all the elders in the hall drinking tea; the Great Elder chuckled dryly, "Don’t tell , as a result, half of our Goddess Sect disciples have embraced the Four Gods Sect, and the other half are following Buddhism, right?"

Fortunately, the female disciple shook her head. But before the Great Elder could breathe a sigh of relief, she continued: "Only one-third follow Buddhism—"

One-third?

The Goddess Sect trained disciples for so many years, yet only a small portion still worshipped the founding ancestor, while the rest either beca bhikkhunis or followers of a cult?

It’s not only ridiculous to others, it was already laughable to herself just hearing about it.

"Tomorrow morning, summon all sect disciples to Divine Maiden Peak, for I will lead the worship to the founding ancestor!"

Without delay, the Great Elder made a decision, though she secretly felt lost.

Now that the Immortal Tree had left, the Goddess Sect could no longer rely on the Divine Lady Tree to cultivate Divine Skills.

Those who had access to the Divine Lady Tree were fine, but for disciples without it, what good would worshipping the founding ancestor do?

Without the Divine Lady Tree, they couldn’t even cultivate the Divine Skills of the founding ancestor. The ancestor was rely a broken idol occupying a spot, but not providing any benefit.

Unless the Goddess Sect could offer a thod to cultivate the Great Thousand Skill without the Divine Lady Tree—otherwise, they couldn’t stop disciples from adopting other doctrines and cultivating different divine skills.

"It’s one thing to follow Buddhism, but what is this devotion to the Four Gods Sect?"
