When humans encountered unbearable hardships, they would seek help from the deities. This was how the deities developed their faith.
In the past, the humans were so weak that the deities did not even need to deliberately create hardships for them to seek help from the deities.
However, over the years, the cultivators had been growing stronger and stronger.
The humans had gradually become less reliant on the deities. When the deities realized this, they naturally would not sit idly by.
Hence, all sorts of hardships created by the deities took turns.
The Frost God created extreme cold, the Tempest God created violent winds, the Ocean God created tsunamis, and the Osiris God released thousands of evil spirits …
The endless hardships made the humans miserable.
They could only seek help from the deities again and again.
That was how the deities obtained the faith they wanted.
"This is how the deities act. They self-directed and played the humans in the palm of their hands," Chu Kuangren said calmly.
Qing Yi was stunned when he heard what Chu Kuangren said. He knew that the deities were not easy to deal with, but he did not expect them to be this despicable.
"Don't they care about the human cultivators?"
"The cultivators do, but they can't."
"What do you mean?"
Qing Yi was a little confused.
Chu Kuangren continued, "The cultivators can intervene, but they can't reveal too much strength, lest the deities become wary."
"In the eyes of the gods now, although the human cultivators are interesting, they are not strong enough to threaten the status of the gods. And the human cultivators are also using this point to secretly accumulate their strength, waiting for the opportunity to counterattack in one fell swoop, so they can't be exposed for the time being."
"Therefore, the human cultivators can only fight against the gods at this stage without revealing their true strength."
Cyan Yi suddenly understood and nodded. He then asked, "Can the Yanwu tribe withstand the disaster created by the gods this time?"
Chu Kuangren scanned the entire Yanwu Tribe with his Emperor's Thought and shook his head. "The strongest cultivator in the tribe is only in the Beginning Emperor Realm. It's basically impossible for them to withstand the attacks of Qiong Qi and the Thunder Beast."
"Then should we intervene?"
"Of course."
Chu Kuangren smiled.
He would not sit back and watch the deities act so presumptuously in front of him.
The next day.
A thunderous roar came from the Yanwu Tribe.
Qiong Qi, Hou, and Thunder Beast appeared in the tribe.
These ferocious beasts were powerful and naturally knew how to cultivate. Adding on the abundant spiritual energy of this era and the manifestation of the Heavenly Dao, it didn't take them a few hundred years to cultivate to the Early Emperor Realm.
In the Yanwu Tribe, the most powerful cultivator was a burly man with a head full of red hair. He was also the leader of this tribe, Yanwu!
Yan Wu was also at the Origin Emperor Realm, but he was unable to withstand the combined attacks of the beasts and was quickly defeated.
Faced with this situation, some of the clansmen were shaken. They knelt on the ground and wanted to seek help from the gods like before.
Seeing this, Yan Wu felt helpless as well.
Compared to the gods, his power was still too weak.
One had to know that even the weakest god had the strength of a Celestial Venerable.
They were much stronger than the Initial Emperor Realm.
A god who had been observing in the dark was ready to take action.
However, one of the other gods stopped him and said, "There's no need to rush. Let's wait for more of their casualties."
"Oh."
"The more unforgettable their suffering is, the stronger their faith will be. This level of suffering is still not enough."
The god's lips curled into a cold smile. Hearing this, the other gods also had an expression of understanding.
"You're right. Then let's wait and let these lowly humans know that worshiping the gods is the only way for them to survive in this world. Qi refinement and cultivation are all bullshit."
… …
Qiong Qi, Thunder Beast, Hou, and the other ferocious beasts were about to attack again and slaughter the Yanwu Tribe. Countless humans couldn't help but tremble at the sight of these ferocious beasts, not having the courage to fight them at all.
A burly man roared and charged forward with a spear in his hand.
"It's brave warrior Ah-Tu."
"Ah-Tu, it's up to you."
Everyone looked at the burly man Ah-Tu and couldn't help but feel hopeful.
Ah-Tu's spear stabbed into Qiong Qi.
But with a clang, the spear broke into two, while Qiong Qi was completely unharmed, not even a single hair fell.
This scene caused everyone to fall into despair again.
Ah-Tu looked at the spear in his hand and was at a loss.
His spear could pierce through a mountain, but it couldn't even harm a single hair on Qiong Qi's body. The difference was just too huge.
"A human who isn't even an emperor dares to harm my body?"
Qiong Qi scoffed coldly and raised his hand to deal with Ah-Tu.
Just as Ah-Tu thought that he was about to die, Qiong Qi's claw stopped in mid-air and couldn't descend anymore.
Then, Qiong Qi's face was filled with fear.
"What is going on? What is this power … "
"This isn't God Power, it isn't a god attacking."
Qiong Qi was frightened by the unexpected change.
Especially from this power, he sensed an aura that made him fear even more than that of a god. What was this?!
"It must be a god showing himself."
"A god is showing himself." Seeing Qiong Qi's sudden change, those who were sincerely praying to the gods were delighted.
As expected, only a god could protect them.
Qi refinement and cultivation were all unreliable.
"Ah, I am not a god."
A chuckle was heard.
A skinny young man in a white cloak slowly walked over. Behind him was a young man in green clothes.
Everyone looked at each other when they saw that young man.
"Where did this sickly guy come from? How dare he insult the gods."
A middle-aged man shouted at Chu Kuangren.
"Sickly guy?"
Chu Kuangren looked at himself.
Indeed, Cang's physical condition did not look good because he had been suffering from the cold qi all year round. His face was a little pale too.
He did look a little ill.
He did not care about the middle-aged man's insults, but Green Robe could no longer sit still. A cold glint flashed across his eyes.
"You're asking for it."
Green Robe drew his sword and was about to attack.
Chu Kuangren raised his hand to stop him. "Don't bother."
Green Robe could only angrily sheath his sword and glare at the middle-aged man. That man was so scared that he fell to the ground.
"Who are you?"
"How dare you interfere in our affairs."
The wild beasts looked at Chu Kuangren with fear.
Although the young man before them looked weak, they did not know why he made them feel a chill down their spines.
That feeling was even scarier than facing a god.
"Heh, a few puppies. Get down."
Chu Kuangren chuckled.
As soon as he said that, the few wild beasts at the scene felt an incomparably horrifying force descending from the sky.
With a bang, the few wild beasts were pressed to the ground without any resistance, unable to move.
The Yanwu Tribe's people, including the Emperor Yanwu, stared with their eyes wide open in disbelief at that scene.
Those were all powerful wild beasts that were famous far and wide.
'He told them to get down just like that.'
'Where did this guy come from?!'
After Chu Kuangren suppressed the wild beasts, he looked up into the sky and said, "You've watched enough. It's time to come out."
