370: Chapter 168 Starting from Pangu Creating the World 370: Chapter 168 Starting from Pangu Creating the World No matter how eloquently Max spoke, Li Mumu didn’t believe a word.
“I don’t know you, so why should I believe any of your nonsense?”
“What good does it do to join so inexplicable Longevity Sect?
Can it be more tempting than all this actual silver right in front of ?”
But Xia Yubing was very interested in it.
“How can I obtain the Incense Offerings from the Longevity Sect?”
Max smiled and said, “That’s very simple, but I see you both have many misunderstandings about the Longevity Sect.
Let start from the beginning…”
“Cut to the chase!”
Xia Yubing slamd her hand on the suitcase, “I have limited patience, don’t waste my ti!”
“Okay, okay, no problem!”
Max’s face was smiling, but inwardly he cursed ‘little jerk’.
But he didn’t have any other choice, since the Longevity Sect had been ground into dust by the Special Service Bureau from top to bottom, leaving only him, a core mber.
Talking about money was out of the question; whether he could even save his own life was uncertain.
Without winning over these two ladies, he couldn’t support the Sect by himself for long.
“Actually, the Longevity Sect is a genuinely local religious sect, we are the real lineage of Eastern Taoism.”
Max spread his hands and said, “I know you won’t believe it, because you don’t understand ‘the truth of the world.’ So I have to start from the beginning to make you understand the whole story.”
Xia Yubing raised an eyebrow and asked, “What is ‘the truth of the world’?”
“Do you know the concept of space-ti tides?”
“Of course.”
“Well, can you understand the concept of parallel space-tis?”
Xia Yubing turned to look at Li Mumu, “Do you understand?”
“I do!”
Li Mumu thought to herself as soone who had been baptized in the age of internet information, what hadn’t she seen, and what couldn’t she understand.
It just felt sowhat twisted to listen to a foreigner who claid to be the orthodox of Taoism talk about such a sci-fi concept.
“Okay, continue.”
“In a multi-dinsional universe, there exists an infinite number of parallel space-tis—just like this bundle of banknotes, each is the sa aside from the serial number.”
Max took out a stack of US Dollars from the suitcase, weighed it in his hand, “Each parallel space-ti will head towards its predetermined apocalypse, which is the source of the space-ti tides.
But among the countless parallel universes, there must exist one path that can survive the apocalypse.”
“According to the East, that is, ‘The Great Way has fifty, Heaven evolves forty-nine.’
“But, sadly, it is not our world.”
“Since the Industrial Revolution, the gods and Buddha of the East have gradually fallen silent and stopped responding to the faithful’s calls.
I believe you also deeply understand this.
Those mystical systems that have been passed down for thousands of years seed to crumble overnight, and there were earth-shattering changes from Heaven to Hell…”
“Focus on the main point!”
“All right, the main point is that based on all the clues and evidence we have at the mont, we believe that those gods and Buddhas from the East haven’t simply disappeared without a trace.
Instead, they have found a parallel dinsion where they can safely survive the apocalypse.”
“It’s like, in this bundle of bills, only the first one is real money; the remaining ninety-nine are counterfeit.”
“It’s not that They have abandoned our world, but rather that our world is drifting away from Them.
We have lost the value to continue existing.”
“The Baroque Alchemy Society calls this hypothesis ‘Relative Theory.’
“So what does this have to do with the current Longevity Sect?”
“Haven’t you understood yet?
You think that the ancient lineages of Taoism have fallen and ceased to exist, but that’s not the case.
Whether a school gets acquired or demolished has no necessary connection to the knowledge taught within it.
As long as the learning is good, you can still take the examination for further education!
Only the cultivation system of the East can allow us to ascend to immortality and leave this dood sinking ship!”
Max looked at Xia Yubing, who still seed unimpressed, and he beca red in the face with urgency.
Xia Yubing turned to Li Mumu and asked, “Do you understand what he’s saying?”
“More or less.”
Li Mumu thought to herself that it wasn’t hard to understand at all.
The ga she had been server-hopping was not sustainable anymore, and they were rging servers to prolong its life.
The real VVIPs didn’t even need to ask; the operations departnt proactively transferred their character data and left half a month early.
Then, a week later, news from the uncle’s party ca out, saying that as long as you were in the top ten of the spenders, you would enjoy a triple rebate benefit as a VVIP Joy mbership Level 18 after the server rge.
When the light spenders heard about this great deal, they thought, wouldn’t they be at a loss if they didn’t spend now?
——In a nutshell, that was the situation.
Coming from this guy’s mouth, it all sounded too complicated, with all the talk of counterfeit bills and exams, like the kind of cringeworthy, convoluted, low-budget ga studio marketing copy written by a deranged copywriter.
When cultivation to immortality makes your wits muddled, these are the symptoms that appear.
“In short, what I’m trying to say is that the Longevity Sect we worship venerates the Three Pure Ones, practices the orthodox Mystic Taoist Immortal thod, and is neither a deviant sect nor so evil villainous organization!”
Max was becoming quite frustrated.
“Okay, okay, I believe you.
Continue.”
Seeing the veins bulging on his forehead as if he were about to have an aneurysm, Li Mumu quickly offered so words of comfort.
“Let’s clarify this issue first, and then we can discuss the issue of Incense Offerings!
Otherwise, even if I tell you, you will still suspect our Incense Offerings have dubious origins and doubt my intentions!”
Max took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
“The reason why the Longevity Sect won’t be so easily exterminated is that it has a necessary aning for existence.
The followers of the Longevity Sect are not natives of Ming Country but rather overseas immigrants!”
“They travel great distances to this Eastern land and then find that everything here is completely foreign to their accustod way of life.
The food, the language, the culture…
but most importantly, the faith!”
“Culture and language can be gradually learned, but faith is sothing they can neither understand nor accept when it cos to the ways of Eastern belief.
The Governnt of the Ming Country does not allow Roman Orthodoxy to preach here, they can only find churches of the Qianjin Church, and Liberation Theology is just as much heresy to them as anything else.”
“Therefore, they desperately need a religion that they can understand and at the sa ti integrate into the local culture.
This belief is a necessity for them, an essential part of their worldview, as indispensable as cheese and bread.”
“It just so happens that the People of Ming no longer worship these gods and Buddhas, and the gods and Buddhas no longer respond to mortals.
So you don’t need to worry about the safety of Incense Offerings at all; it is a complete open market with no competition, and it will not encroach upon the interests of other religious factions.”
“Trust , there won’t be any problems!”
