Moreover, the people in the countryside are ignorant and can be easily incited. If he blindly manifests his magical powers and spreads his faith, he will definitely get into trouble.
On the one hand, there is the imperial court, which is more protective of the people than of the rivers. The imperial courts of all dynasties are as afraid of them as tigers. What's more, there is a hero like Emperor Shenwu on the throne. He knows the power of people's hearts better than anyone else. Therefore, Su Ming was not sure that if he acted in a high-profile manner and harvested his faith, he would probably be offended.
When the time comes, the old emperor's decree will force him to return to the capital. After all, he is still a member of the imperial court. Although he does not care about the emperor's orders, if he does not comply with such a simple order, it will also make him and the old emperor There was a rift between the emperors.
On the other hand, there are various incense gods in various states and counties in the world. Many of them are conferred by the imperial court. It is not worthwhile for Su Ming to snatch incense from these gods.
Today's people's hearts are too complicated, with too many desires for what they should and should not have. It is really difficult to develop them into devout believers.
Even if they become devout believers, their thoughts will be complicated, and the efficiency of extracting the purest power of faith from them will be horribly low.
For Su Ming, the power of faith is not the most important, the most important thing is luck.
Only by gaining enough luck can he more easily step into the realm of the soul. Until now, Su Ming has not found the so-called opportunity to step into the realm of the soul.
Suddenly, Su Ming's mind sank into the sea of consciousness and he looked at the Divine Dragon of Luck that was entrenched on the Tathagata's dharma body. When he left the capital, the Great Zhou Luck collapsed and the Divine Dragon bleeded. His Great Zhou Luck was also damaged.
Now he discovered that although the destiny dragon in the sea of consciousness had greatly reduced its momentum, its injuries had healed, and it gave him an indescribable feeling.
It's as if there is some kind of connection between you and it. This connection is extremely weak, and it is difficult to detect it if you don't sink your heart and feel it.
You must know that when Emperor Shenwu issued the edict, these qi flows came to him. Since then, no matter how he communicated, this qi luck divine dragon had no response.
Su Ming felt the vague connection, and a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind. Maybe the luck he had just received was not from the faith of these people, but something he had himself.
In other words, these lucks are already within him, but he has been unable to use them. After gaining the people's mind, people's hearts aspired to him, so his luck value increased.
These lucks did not arise out of thin air, they were already present in him, but he had never been able to find a way to use them.
This was also done intentionally by the old emperor. He only had a false title and no real power. His luck was just rootless duckweed and could not be used by him. However, the fortune of the imperial court is formed by the hearts and minds of all the people in the world. Su Ming gained the hearts and minds of the people. It was like opening the back door of a safe so that he could steal the fortune.
The more people's favor he gets, the more luck he steals.
When he first increased his luck, he had thought that if gaining people's faith could increase his luck, wouldn't the immortal cultivating sects find out?
Obviously not. For them, to gain people's favor, they can only harvest the power of incense and faith, but not luck. Otherwise, those immortal cultivating sects would have already dominated one side and enslaved the people.
In this world, only he can obtain luck through faith. After all, not everyone can have the luck of the court like him, and there is a luck panel that can be checked at all times.
To him, the people's sentiments are like a panacea, which can not only bring them luck but also gain their faith.
After figuring out the origin of his luck, Su Ming took a long breath, his eyes clear and restrained, calm and confident.
In this way, he doesn't have to go all out and use any means to harvest his luck. There is still a big difference between people's ideas and beliefs.
Under the night, the tall stone statue exudes a soft glow under the starlight. Normally, as long as people come within three feet of the statue, they will be affected by the Buddhist charm left by Su Ming on the statue. Their minds will calm down involuntarily, and they will also have the ability to ward off evil spirits. The effectiveness of exterminating demons can be regarded as a low-level magic weapon.
Before leaving, Su Ming left a spiritual thought in the statue to prevent any wild gods from occupying this place and stealing the incense. At the same time, he also left a chess piece behind.
"Wangchen, now that you have cultivated the golden elixir and have the power to protect yourself, it is time for us to part ways. You have your way to go, and I have mine to walk. Even if you follow me, there is nothing you can do. You’ve gained experience, so let’s go.”
Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Monk Wangchen's face froze and he refused directly, "But when the master is out and about, there must be someone to take care of him. Although my cultivation is shallow, I can still run errands for the master."
"In the beginning, Master not only saved my life from evil cultivators, but also reshaped my body. Such a great kindness will never be forgotten by me. How can I abandon you at this time?"
Su Ming shook his head and sighed, "You are really useless if you follow me. The Golden Core Realm is still too weak. You can only help me when you reach Nascent Soul. Besides, the world has changed greatly now, and the Great Zhou Dynasty There is internal instability, and as the Imperial Master of the Great Zhou Dynasty, I must make preparations in advance."
Sensing the worry in Su Ming's words, Monk Wangchen was about to say that he wanted to help, but then he thought of his own cultivation and fell silent again.
After a long time, he reluctantly said, "Since the master has an order, I must obey it!"
After he finished speaking, he bowed heavily to Su Ming and stood up after a long while. At the same time, he secretly decided to improve his cultivation as soon as possible and help the master.
Just when he was about to leave with a solemn look on his face, Su Ming stopped him.
"etc!"
Su Ming frowned slightly and said with some worry, "The world is in chaos now, and you are not a disciple of a famous sect. You may be afraid of accidents when you are alone outside. I will give you a Buddhist seal, which can help you understand Buddhism." , and can protect your life at a critical moment."
After speaking, he stretched out his finger and pointed it directly at the center of Monk Wangchen's eyebrows. A bit of golden light appeared, and instantly condensed into a "swastika" Buddha seal, which fell on his heavenly spirit, and then disappeared.
Just after the Buddha's seal fell, Monk Wangchen felt that his mind seemed to have become sharper. He was able to run his skills and absorb spiritual energy much faster than usual. He suddenly felt grateful and prostrated again.
"Thank you, Master!"
"Go and walk outside, be sure not to lose the reputation of my Pudu Cihang!"
"I understand!" He nodded, saluted, and then drove away in the light.
After he left, an inexplicable smile appeared on Su Ming's face. Now that he was alone, he could finally do some things that were difficult to do.
He had long wanted to send Monk Wangchen away, but his cultivation level was too low and he didn't even have the ability to protect himself. Su Ming's matter hadn't been found out yet, so he took him with him.
But now, he was going to gain people's favor and steal luck. It was inconvenient to carry an oil bottle with him. The situation was urgent and he didn't need someone to bring him tea and water, so he was sent away.
