Chapter 703: Chapter 13: Causal Derivation, The Terrifying Religion ‘Virus’ (10k+)_6

But once the Virtual World gained this ability, things were different.

You see, it could accumulate power through the Faith World, and advancing from the Eighth Realm to the Ninth Realm was no problem.

Should a powerful being make contact with him,

he could dispatch the Faith World, secretly growing his base of believers.

Once the power was sufficient, he could deliver a fatal blow.

A sneak attack from the Ninth Realm, just how terrifying would that be?

As for instantly establishing a Faith World, it was even simpler, since faith itself is a form of cause and effect.

As long as someone developed faith in him, there was no need to open a channel like the Winged People Planet did, to transmit the Faith World over.

Instead, he could directly construct the Faith World through the believers’ faith, secretly amassing power, and essentially keeping that world in the palm of his hand.

“Two abilities, each more terrifying than the last…”

“Huangtian made the right choice. In a world where cultivators who could reach the heavens existed, faith must be unified; otherwise, attracting any form of life would be extremely troublesome.”

The establishment of the Lifeless Sect, although not completely solving the issue of rogue gods of faith,

still resolved ninety percent of the problem without any issue.

A world with unified faith had a much lower risk of being invaded by external faiths compared to a world without such unity.

Of course, this only applied to cultivation worlds.

“It looks like Huangtian needs to be more vigilant.”

Wang Sheng himself possessed the ability and knew full well how terrifying it was.

Take, for instance, if followers from an unknown world suddenly appeared and that world, unaware of their presence and lacking a Ninth Realm cultivator,

then that world could essentially be considered part of the Source Star.

And he himself would have gained a vast new ground to harvest.

“The main problem is how to spread the faith; after all, separated by worlds, there’s no way to communicate it but—”

“In worlds where Prophets exist, it’s still possible to interfere with stellar messages…”

To his knowledge, every world in this region with a Prophet should be aware of the Source Star, aware of the presence of Lifeless True Saint.

And it’s all the higher echelons that knew.

Chaotic Realm and Daojun also fell into the same category.

This was not necessarily concerning but—

“With the expansion of Source Star and Chaotic Realm, most worlds in the region have felt tremendous pressure, which makes the higher-ups all the more conscious that they’re no match for us, hence the need to seek a way out.”

Wang Sheng took a deep breath.

“Without knowing the specific situation, both Lifeless True Saint and Daojun represent a way out; as long as they wish to establish contact with me and pray inwardly, it would generate cause and effect!”

In a flash, Wang Sheng seemed to stand above the starry skies, looking down at countless Life Worlds and planets within the region, as if all were his for the taking.

Countless worlds, all living beings aware of Lifeless True Saint’s existence, in that instant, sensed something as though being targeted by a colossal beast.

The feeling lasted but a moment; many living beings thought it was an illusion, with only a few powerful beings left in deep thought.

They knew that at their current state of being, inner unease could not be a deception.

Yet not one was able to trace the source of this unease.

Wang Sheng retracted his gaze.

“Faith is terrifying, but if it can be wielded by oneself, then it is an incomparably potent weapon, especially in situations where worlds must contend against one another…”

“Regardless of the reason, it’s essential to harvest as many worlds as possible.”

One, to inhibit the Chaotic Realm from devouring worlds to enhance its own foundation, ensuring Daojun grew stronger.

Two, he himself needed more worlds, more living beings to supply diffused spiritual power and Life Essence Qi.

Over the years, his cultivation had steadily kept pace.

“The progress of ‘Refining God and Returning to Void. Immortal Embryo’ is already over forty percent.”

His strength increased, but this also brought increasingly substantial consumption.

“It’s estimated that to reach sixty percent progress, the diffused spiritual power from four worlds would no longer suffice to expand the Virtual World, and to reach seventy percent progress, the diffused spiritual power and Life Essence Qi from the four worlds would be insufficient for my daily consumption.”

Although this required continuous effort over time, some things are always better to be prepared for.

To acquire more worlds was imperative.

And the “Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter” Breakthrough would bring even more convenience.

“It won’t be long before I can use the Yu Kong ability again; with a dual approach, it should be quick to acquire new worlds.”

“If the Chaotic Realm’s pressure is substantial enough, the harvest will include more than one world.”

Other worlds may not understand, but does he not?

Chaotic Realm chose the path to devour worlds.

It could yield the most substantial short-term benefits.

And this meant a natural and substantial conflict with Wang Sheng.

Yet similarly, if the Chaotic Realm’s pressure on other worlds was enough, those worlds would naturally gravitate towards him.

“I hope you make the right choice…”

And indeed, things were much as Wang Sheng had expected.

The weaker the world, the quicker the decision.

“We must align with one world now. According to the Prophet’s information, both the Source Star and Chaotic Realm have Ninth Realm peak figures, while our strongest is only of the Sixth Realm, leaving no hope for a turnaround.”

“Which side should we align with?”

“Let the Prophet try to foresee which choice to make.”

“Even if we do make a choice, how do we establish contact? Without contact, all is in vain.” This was the problem all worlds were contemplating.

Unable to make contact, the outcome would not change; they still couldn’t decide.

Some worlds were deeply troubled.

But those with deeper foundations were different.

“Knowing of Source Star, Chaotic Realm’s strongest titles, the task becomes much simpler. We’ll use our trump cards to attempt contact. Source Star, Chaotic Realm can invade other worlds, which means cross-world channels can be opened. As long as we make contact, there’s no need for us to worry.”

At this time, the Tianhe Federation, the most powerful world in the region, was also making its final decision.

“According to the Prophet’s words before falling into a coma, Chaotic Realm are destroyers, Source Star holds a sliver of hope, it’s time for us to make a life-and-death decision!”

And while they were discussing,

a round portal with chains appeared in the sky above the Tianhe Federation’s Mother Star.

Once it appeared, the chains began to break, one by one…

On the other side of the portal, Daojun threw a treasure that split the chains and then left immediately.

The third world’s affairs were still unresolved.

But due to the unexpected changes in Source Star, he needed to quickly settle this world using invasion, to speed up progress, therefore he had to plan ahead.

Meanwhile, Tianhe Federation’s Prophet awoke from his prophetic coma.

Upon waking, his first words were—

“Lifeless True Saint is the only hope!”
