As for why he had this idea, it was entirely because when he met Hua Wenwu and fought with the three Chinese Consecrators, he had obtained a jade slip from the last Consecrator's body when he killed him.
This jade slip was quite mysterious, and there was a powerful restriction in it. He could only see the most superficial part of it, but it was this little bit that shocked Di Shitian greatly. Because the things inside had somewhat subverted some of his understanding of cultivation.
In this world, there were quite a lot of different kinds of power. For example, the most basic power of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements was the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, the Qi of the Netherworld, the power of the Immortal Spirit, and so on. These were all powers that ordinary people knew. There were also some special powers, such as the power of the stars in the sky emitted by countless stars in the starry sky, and the power of desire produced by countless living beings in the world because of their desires. Finally, there was a power called the Power of Wish.
The so-called Power of Wish was actually the Power of Faith. The generation of faith was the sincere worship of a certain existence in the hearts of all living beings, such as a certain god in their hearts. Every day, every day, every time, all kinds of wishes were deposited, and so on. In this way, a mysterious power would be produced in their bodies, and this power was the Power of Faith.
There was a saying from ancient times: Man strives for a breath, and Buddha strives for a stick of incense!
This incense was not really incense, but the Power of Faith.
This Power of Faith was quite mysterious. On the Purple Gold Mainland, perhaps only a handful of people knew about it. Even if they knew, to collect this Power of Faith, they would need to use a lot of methods.
The simplest method was to build a temple in the secular world and create a golden body. Then, good men and women would come to offer incense, or pray for protection, or deposit their beautiful wishes, and so on. At the same time, their bodies would emit wisps of Power of Faith that ordinary people could not see, and gather in the golden body in the temple.
The golden body was where the Power of Faith was collected.
It wasn't difficult to collect faith. What was difficult was that there were very few people who truly knew how to use the power of faith. If they didn't know how to use it, no matter how much faith they collected, they were just fools who didn't know how to use it.
Therefore, on the Purple Gold Mainland, there were many people who knew about the power of faith. However, there were very few people who would actually collect it because of the power of faith. Although there were many temples and Daoist temples in the secular world, even if there was a golden body with the power of faith, no one could take it out.
Of course, Di Shitian wasn't aware of any of that. He had only acquired some information from the jade slip. According to the information, by gathering faith power, one could avoid inner devils, clear one's mind, and gain enlightenment. One would be impervious to all evils, and would be able to vanquish the horde of devils!!
Although it didn't sound like much, Di Shitian discovered the value of it at first glance. Avoiding inner devils, clearing one's mind, and gaining enlightenment. This undoubtedly meant that if he could absorb the Power of Faith and stay in it, he would not be troubled by inner devils. His understanding of various Magic Arts and realms would be incomparably fast.
This point alone was enough to make him pay attention to the Power of Faith. Coincidentally, when he heard that Hua Wenwu was a prince of China, he immediately came up with a plan. He didn't kill him, but went all the way to the imperial capital of China with him. He wanted to use his identity, or rather, he wanted to use the identity that Hua Wenwu would have in the future to help him collect the faith of the whole of China.
The method that other people usually used to collect faith power was nothing more than building their own Daoist temples and building a golden body for themselves. However, Di Shitian had a lifetime of experience. Almost instantly, he thought of a better way, which was to build a golden body in a Daoist temple. That way, not only was it troublesome, but also required a lot of effort. Not to mention the slow speed of developing believers, it was also very difficult to collect the faith power.
However, Di Shitian thought of an excellent way from the totem of the descendants of China in his previous life. That was to build himself into the totem of Hua Guo. Totem was the symbol of a country. As long as one was a Chinese, he would be deeply remembered in his mind. Then, it was almost natural for the emperor to order him to collect faith power.
Hua Wenwu's expression changed quickly several times. China had not established a totem yet. Totem had never been established in the surrounding countries. It was not difficult to establish a totem. However, once established, it meant that the totem would have a kind of transcendence. Hua Wenwu, who had been a prince for so many years, naturally thought of this.
Therefore, even he did not dare to agree easily.
Di Shitian was not in a hurry. His face was full of certainty, as if he had already guessed Hua Wenwu's final answer.
For a moment, the whole bamboo building fell into a kind of silence.
After a full quarter of an hour, Hua Wenwu's churning thoughts finally settled down. He secretly gritted his teeth, and his face slowly became firm. He raised his head, looked at Sakra, and said, "Alright, this junior agrees to this matter. As long as Mister can help me successfully ascend the throne, this junior will clear Mister's name, build a golden body, and raise a totem after ascending the throne!!"
The tone of his words was unusually cautious. Obviously, it was because of the importance of this matter. It involved too much and was too broad. Almost at the moment when he agreed, it also meant that in the future, there would be a high and mighty totem in China. This almost instantly changed the fate of all the people in China.
One could imagine how heavy this decision was.
"Good, very good." Di Shitian turned around, and his indifferent face finally became much gentler. Obviously, he was also very happy because the matter was confirmed. He nodded and said, "Although what I want to make is a totem, you can rest assured that I have no interest in the politics of China, and I will not interfere. You'd better act as your emperor. In the future, if China is in trouble, as the totem of China, I will naturally help you solve the problem and protect the country."
Politics? What a joke. He was not in the mood to care about the politics of the secular world. Moreover, he was very clear about his identity. He was a demon. If he really wanted to become an emperor and establish a country, he would establish it among the demons. He would gather all the demons in the world and establish a country of demons. Now he wanted to make a totem because he wanted to know specifically what magical effect the power of faith had.
Moreover, he wanted to see if the power of faith could suppress the hidden danger in his body and eliminate it. If it could, it would really be a kind of supreme treasure. He would try his best to collect it.
Then, he paused and said, "You can leave behind the location of the Hall of Consecrations, and the specific consecrations. Then, you can go back. I will clean up all of this for you. You just have to wait for the day you ascend the throne. However, you must not forget what you promised me. If you dare to go back on your word, I can take back everything I gave you."
Hua Wenwu's heart skipped a beat. With a solemn expression, he said, "Mister, please rest assured. I will not go back on my word. After this junior ascends to the throne, I will establish the totem on the same day and build a golden body for you." In his mind, the scene of Di Shitian outside Ping 'an Town appeared in his mind. He could not help but remind himself secretly.
After that, Hua Wenwu put down all the things in his mind. He took out a scroll from his body, which recorded all the information about the Hall of Worship. It seemed that he had prepared it long before he came.
He put it on the bamboo table, turned around and left respectfully. He closed the door and left with light footsteps.
Di Shitian glanced at the scroll on the table, and an inexplicable look flashed across his face. He thought to himself, "Hua Wenwu agreed, which means that my collection of faith is on the right track. If there is no accident, I will be the totem of China. However, I can collect faith, but how to use the power of faith is quite a big problem."
Various thoughts flashed through Ye Xiwen's mind. Regarding faith, he had only obtained a part of it from the jade slip, or the most basic part, which was some information about what faith was and how to collect it. The rest was sealed by an extremely powerful restriction. If he wanted to obtain the rest of the information, he had to break the restriction in the jade slip.
He had also tested the restriction. With his current strength, there was absolutely no way to break it. Perhaps he would have this strength when he condensed his Neidan and really transformed into a demon.
"Forget it. Anyway, as long as I collect the power of faith and put it there, no one can take it away except me. The more I collect, the better. It definitely won't be bad. When I break the jade slip in the future, I should know how to use it. "
Di Shitian was not in a hurry. Encountering the jade slip and collecting faith were completely unexpected products. No matter what, he would not be too disappointed. What's more, now he got the promise of the Qin family to teach him music theory. This was the real purpose. Now that the purpose had been achieved, the purpose of coming to the secular human world was basically completed.
Di Shitian couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
Standing in front of the window, looking at the void, he seemed to see somewhere.
"Mom, don't worry, I won't let you and my brother wait too long. As long as I have enough strength, I will save you from the sea of bitterness. At that time, I will make the entire Thousand Beasts Sect atone for the crime of capturing you."
"Doo doo doo!"
Not long after Di Shi Tian had sunk into contemplation, about half an hour had passed. After Hua Wenwu left, there was another crisp knocking sound on the door. The sound was very rhythmic, and it could be heard that the person outside the door should be a rather cultured person.
Di Shitian was awakened by the knock on the door. He frowned slightly and turned his head to look at the door, secretly guessing who it could be. There were very few people he knew here. He didn't have any friends. Could it be the Qin family? (To be continued, if you want to know what happens next, please go to www.qidian.com and read more chapters.
