Chapter 38: Faith and Will
Chapter 38: Faith and Will
-------
It is inevitable that people will be treated differently.
Others will do this to you, and you will do this to others. Basically no one can escape this.
"When I first used the group function to recruit people, I set two conditions for screening, but the screening function of this chat group can only be used once, which is a benefit for me as a group owner."
Xu Zhuo said that everyone was listening carefully.
"The first of these two conditions is that the group members have good character."
"For the second one, I chose to be strong. Even if my strength is not strong at the moment, my overall worldview must be strong enough, and I must have room for improvement and a promising future."
"Otherwise, if an ordinary fat otaku or beggar group member comes, even with my help, he can at best become a rich man, or even better, an emperor of a secular dynasty. What's the point? It's a waste of my energy."
For a cultivator like Xu Zhuo who lives in a fantasy world, secular resources are not completely useless, but they are better than nothing.
What does he want those secular dynasties for?
Creating a wonder?
"But in that case..."
Ye Fan raised a question, "If this screening function can only be used once, then the next group member who comes in will have a certain probability of being untrustworthy and weaker, not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of upper limit."
If they are weak and have a low upper limit, doesn’t that mean they are of no help to us and can only consume our resources?
Although Ye Fan is the descendant of Master Yuan Tian and is wealthy, the feeling and mood of supporting a bunch of parasites and value investment are completely different.
Look at the four group members now. They get along very well and nothing offensive has happened.
Compared to Ye Fan’s former classmates Liu Yunzhi and others, they couldn’t be better.
And group members will be able to provide him with help in the future.
Not only in the future, but now, they have already given him tremendous help. The Nine Secrets and the Great Five Elements Technique are all good things.
As for Xiao Yan and Luo Feng, although they don’t have anything to show for themselves now, they are both geniuses.
Behind Xiao Yan there is a powerful teacher who is only left with his soul and is good at making pills.
Luo Feng is also a genius certified by the group leader, and he has also awakened his mental power, so his future is promising.
Ye Fan didn't feel any emotion at all when helping them.
But if someone changes.
For example, when he was on Earth, the young and dangerous guys in the Hong Kong movies he watched joined the chat group. The rules for getting into trouble are things like 'betraying your brothers', 'being a traitor', and 'seducing your second sister-in-law'. Do you think he is disgusting?
They have bad character and their entire worldview doesn't have anything that can help them, so what's the point of recruiting them into the group?
Xiao Yan took over the conversation and said, "For example, in the world of Kung Fu movies, the strongest can only beat a few ordinary people?"
"Or maybe the ancient world where even modern guns and cannons had not yet appeared and food production was extremely low." Ye Fan added, "This kind of world is really useless to us. Even if we want to grow spiritual medicine, their environment may not be up to standard."
"If you don't have any resources for cultivation, you can only be a mascot in the group. I hope you're someone who's easy to get along with. Otherwise... can you, the group leader, kick people out?" Xiao Yan asked.
"Of course you can, but the vacant vacancy will have to wait until the next activity level is full before we can recruit new people to fill the vacancy. In other words, the vacancy will be vacant for a while after someone is kicked out." Xu Zhuo explained.
"That's good too. Even if there's only one person left, it's better than having someone to trouble me. I hate that kind of people the most." Xiao Yan said.
It seemed that he had met this kind of person in his previous life.
Ye Fan also nodded, and thought of his classmate Liu Yunzhi. "Indeed, it is the most annoying thing to have to stay with people you hate. Doesn't Buddhism say that meeting people you hate is one of the eight sufferings in life? This is it."
Luo Feng and Fang Han also nodded. "Okay, everyone agrees, so the next group member to join will be judged by us to see if they are qualified to stay in the group."
There was no administrator position in the chat group, so Xu Zhuo had to form a management team himself.
"If the new member is okay, then even if his world doesn't have many resources, I think we can still help him. It won't cost us much resources. Otherwise, we will just kick him out."
"Okay, I have no objection."
"I agree."
"agreed, agreed."
Everyone has no objection to helping other group members. As long as they can get along well, it doesn't take much effort to help each other.
If you don't get along well with someone, just kick them out.
If you are a little more annoying, I will tell you offline!
The group owner has the authority to enable world teleportation permissions for all group members without the other party's consent, and has the highest priority.
Xu Zhuo glanced at everyone, then looked at Yan who was curled in the air with his neck stretched out, and paused.
"Wait a minute, it suddenly occurred to me that thanks to the offline mode function of the chat group, it should be somewhat useful no matter what world it is."
When Xu Zhuo saw Yan, he suddenly remembered a resource in the world of immortality.
"How to use it?" Xiao Yan asked.
"The murderous spirit of war, and the power of faith." Xu Zhuo said slowly.
Yan's eyes lit up, and he immediately explained, "That's right. These two things are the spiritual thoughts of all living beings. The former must be collected on the battlefield, and the latter requires many living beings to pray devoutly. It can only be obtained over time and can be used to cultivate some special magical powers."
Everyone was smart and immediately understood what Xu Zhuo meant.
The offline mode can speed up the flow of time in the group members' world, that is to say, they can shepherd sentient beings in other group members' worlds and harvest vows for cultivation.
After all, this is how we treat those group members who have little value.
Since it doesn't have much value, its military strength must not be high. If it is just a simple low-tech world or a martial arts world, with their strength, it would be easy for them to control a country.
"Can both the murderous aura of war and the power of faith be utilized?" Xiao Yan asked curiously.
"Of course, on the battlefield, the killing intent is intense and the soldiers are emotionally excited. These spiritual thoughts can be collected using special methods and used to cultivate supernatural powers. However, the killing aura of war is not very effective and cannot be sustained. The power of faith will be of better quality because it is a pure and beautiful spiritual thought. Over here, it is very common for various sects to nurture secular dynasties to collect the power of faith." Yan explained.
very common?
And they are specially raised?
You actually industrialized this kind of thing?
Everyone expressed shock.
Fang Han was also among them, and only Xu Zhuo knew the situation a long time ago.
Ye Fan was also shocked: "So, isn't the Western Desert Buddhist sect in my world also collecting faith and vows?"
"They haven't done it so industrialized, only the Buddha Emperor Amitabha has done some research." Xu Zhuo said, "The situation here is a bit complicated. There are indeed a lot of faith and vows in the Western Desert, but it is basically impossible to get them."
