Lu Yuan thought this way, and his heart grew even more fervent.
He himself was already a cultivator who had gathered two levels of energy (Qi), and having read the Taiping Dao Book and the Five Thunder Book, both Five Qi Towards Origin level Dao books, he had a general understanding of the power of Gathering Three Qi and Four Qi Condensation.
The burst of power from the god statue a mont ago had far surpassed these two levels.
Perhaps only the legendary Five Qi major success, where the Five Elents magic power forms a great cycle within the body, beginning to transition from the Inner World to the Outer World, could possess such vast and Heavenly Earth-like power?
And such a creation, a god statue containing who knows how much Qi Luck and divine power, was now laying before his very eyes.
How could such a precious treasure not tempt the heart?
"Legend has it that thousands of years ago, when Immortals still remained Between Heaven and Earth,
the Spirit Masters and Spirit Won of the church could directly communicate with the god statue during their clashes with the Immortals of the Nine Provinces, causing the deities within the statue to project themselves in Heaven and Earth, directly wielding the mighty power of the Immortals to combat their foes.
But later on, the church faced a catastrophe, and this thod of contacting and summoning deities gradually beca lost.
And as Heaven and Earth began to decline, they could no longer accommodate the power of the Immortals, and the divine power within the god statues could no longer be used."
Upon hearing Lu Yuan’s words, the Spiritual woman first recounted a legend, then continued to explain, "In our generation, although I have received divine power from the deities within the god statue,
the divine power bestowed upon is but a trifling fraction of their power, not even worth ntioning.
So my Emperor, I know you take great interest in the Great Dharma God, but that is the power of the deities.
We mortals don’t have the capacity to ddle with it.
As I am still a Spiritual woman, should you anger the Great Dharma God, I can still soothe it sowhat.
But how long this soothing can last, and how effective it can be, no one knows.
And one day I too, will die.
By then, if Great Mohism is gone and the lineage of Spirit Masters and Spirit Won has been severed, there will be no one left to appease the deities."
The statue of the Great Dharma God before him, with such terrifying power, of course didn’t co out of nowhere.
The source of the statue’s power cos from the faith and offerings of the entire Snow Plains Nomads over tens of thousands of years, which grew stronger step by step, eventually giving birth to a vague consciousness and becoming this fearso Great Dharma God.
That’s why Lu Yuan was able to sense, within the Great Dharma God statue, a Qi Luck force a hundred tis greater than his own, perhaps even more.
Because this represents the entire Barbarian tribe’s faith in the Great Dharma God statue over tens of thousands of years, and the tribe’s Qi Luck slowly converging into the statue, accumulating gradually bit by bit.
Taking into account the Barbarians’ peak population, which stood around fifteen to sixteen million, the imnse convergence of Qi Luck from such a sizable tribe over tens of thousands of years can be imagined.
Even if over these tens of thousands of years, the Qi Luck of the statue has dissipated sowhat, possibly by a great deal,
it still couldn’t compare to the Qi Luck that Lu Yuan has accumulated over just a few decades since uniting one state.
And that’s rely concerning Qi Luck.
Under the faith of the Snowy Plain Barbarians over tens of thousands of years, the religious power that followed, accumulating alongside Qi Luck, also amounts to a terrifying figure.
Although, during most of the past years, this religious power transford into divine power was mostly ascended to the Immortal Realm by the successive generations of Spirit Masters and Spirit Won of Great Mohism, and was never returned to the Great Dharma god.
But even starting from a thousand years ago, after the catastrophe occurred and the lineage was severed,
the accumulated faith of millions over a thousand years is still a fearso number.
Since that catastrophe, the renewed Great Mohism, having lost the news and channel to ascend to the Immortal Realm, the divine power bestowed upon the successive generations of Spirit Masters and Spirit Won has been returned to the Great Dharma god statue.
When the Spiritual woman spoke of the Great Dharma power within her being nothing but a drop in the ocean of the deities’ power, it was not an exaggeration.
Indeed, the divine power she received was likely not even one in ten thousandth of what the Great Dharma god statue possessed.
Because after the discontinuation of Great Mohism’s lineage, a secret technique previously held by successive generations of Spirit Masters and Spirit Won, which was the active extraction of divine power from the god statue, was lost within the church.
The Spirit Masters and Spirit Won of the reestablished Great Mohism, although they could communicate with the Great Dharma god within the statue, could only obtain the Great Dharma power by pleasing the Divine Spirits, allowing them to bestow it voluntarily.
One was active extraction, the other passive reception; the difference and efficiency gap between the two naturally speaks for itself.
Forr Spirit Masters and Spirit Won, as long as there was divine power in the Great Dharma god statue, would draw it all out without leaving anything behind, using it entirely for themselves without considering the statue’s wishes.
After all, when the lineage had not been severed, the successive generations of Spirit Masters and Spirit Won from the ancient lineage naturally understood the true nature of that so-called Great Dharma god.
That was nothing more than a legacy left by the real Great Dharma god for the Snowy Plain Barbarians who worshipped him, a ans for self-preservation.
The Great Dharma god statue was rely a tool, a dium for obtaining divine power, and not a true deity.
It was only after the lineage was severed and the thod of extracting divine power disappeared that the concept of a tool beca blurred amongst the believers who had rebuilt Great Mohism from the ruins, and they began to worship the statue as a true deity.
Eventually, the "Mo Ling Borrowing Life and Cultivating Character Secret thod" was even created, a special cultivation technique where the divine power obtained from the Great Dharma god statue was nurtured and grown by the Spirit Masters and Spirit Won, before ultimately being returned to the statue.
