Martial Arts Genius with Proficiency System Chapter 988 - 439: The Origin of the Three Gods, the Eternal Venerable God Who Vanished in Subspace!
Previously on Martial Arts Genius with Proficiency System...
The devotees were on the verge of crying, yearning to call out the name of their Divine Son.
The holy texts on their lips were about to burst into unified chants.
Then, suddenly...
Weng Weng Weng!!
An unseen force breached their very hearts. In a fleeting moment, the immense faith they held for the three revered deities was shattered as if by a colossal hand.
Subsequently, guided by an external influence, this fractured faith began to rapidly reform.
A bloody river stretching a thousand miles, a mountain of corpses accumulated over a millennium, and a majestic figure cloaked in the austere divinity of silence materialized.
Instantly, a new devotion surged into their beings.
Kneel, before the Eternal Venerable God!!
The actions of these five devotees came to an abrupt halt.
Silenced, they fixed their gazes upon Su Tu, enthroned above, with an indescribable fervor, their lips quivering, heads bowed low to the ground.
Bow... kneel!!!
Observing this transformation, Su Tu gave a slight nod. Indeed, the more profound the original faith in the three deities, the simpler its alteration became. Especially now that his Heart and Spirit had undergone a fundamental shift, and his subordinate, little Xue Yue, had also gained enhanced abilities.
Previously, converting such devout believers demanded considerable preparation time. Now, however, a mere glance sufficed to turn them into his devoted followers.
[Your followers are worshipping the Eternal Venerable God for the first time, Inference of Heaven skill level +300]
[Your followers are worshipping the Eternal Venerable God for the first time, Inference of Heaven skill level +300]
[Your followers are worshipping the Eternal Venerable God for the first time, Inference of Heaven...]
[Inference of Heaven: 61000/1000000]
The system's notifications materialized before his eyes.
The designation 'first worship' signified an additional two hundred skill levels bestowed by newly converted followers.
Though this bonus seemed negligible compared to the million needed for Inference of Heaven's full mastery, it was crucial to remember Su Tu's current advantage: he was in an 'Experience Baby Paradise.'
The count of high-level believers alone numbered in the tens of thousands, not to mention the countless lesser believers and ordinary followers scattered throughout.
Individually, this extra two hundred skill points appeared paltry. However, aggregated across such a vast populace, it promised a tremendous qualitative leap.
In truth, little Xue Yue's current capabilities allowed her to absorb hundreds, even thousands, of high-level followers simultaneously. Yet, Su Tu felt an extreme sense of danger emanating from Chen Yuan. Having just been reborn, his physical body remained frail, necessitating a cautious progression.
Consequently, he opted for this conservative strategy to accumulate experience.
Nevertheless, his current physique was developing at an astonishing pace. It was predicted that it would not be long before his body matured into adolescence and then young adulthood.
By that juncture...
Su Tu's lips curved into a subtle smile, yet it was a smile devoid of genuine warmth, appearing as stiff and artificial as a mask.
Witnessing this display, Su Tu's brow furrowed slightly, betraying a semblance of contemplation. However, this thoughtfulness also struck an uncanny, false note.
After attempting two distinct expressions in succession, Su Tu ultimately ceased, resuming his expressionless posture on the throne, abandoning further attempts.
He could now confirm with certainty that he had indeed lost his capacity for genuine emotions. Even when attempting to manifest expressions that represented feelings, they appeared profoundly artificial.
This occurred because he had lost the fundamental understanding of emotions and desires, rendering him unable to associate them with appropriate facial cues or accurately convey their essence.
Naturally, if he were to actively pursue an action, he could somewhat mimic it. However, Su Tu was testing whether his physical form retained any residual memory of corresponding emotions; the answer was now unequivocally clear.
"In the current circumstances, my present disposition is indeed more fitting; a Divine Son should exude an aura of divinity."
Su Tu's guiding principle for decision-making had narrowed down to a single criterion: how best to advance his objectives and the core nature of each situation.
He was currently entrenched within the Three Deceits Cult, maintaining his position solely through the identity of the Divine Son. Until his power matured sufficiently to challenge those at the apex, this identity had to remain unassailable.
Furthermore, his current state of being was demonstrably more suitable and congruent with the persona of a deity.
Drawing a deep breath, Su Tu cast a glance at the five devoted believers. Following the transformation of their faith, Su Tu stood as their sole True God. No words were necessary; a mere thought from him constituted divine decree for them.
The five individuals bowed deeply towards Su Tu before respectfully exiting the grand hall.
Within the opulent and imposing hall, only Su Tu remained seated upon the throne. He propped his chin on his hand, his visage, though endearingly small, utterly devoid of expression. His dark pupils lacked any discernible light, resembling miniature black holes capable of consuming all existence.
An invisible wave, emanating from Su Tu as its epicenter, gently expanded outward, permeating the entirety of the main assembly area.
This ripple, reminiscent of a spider's intricate web, formed connections among all the hidden Doomsday Believers. Instantly, every Doomsday Believer within the church experienced a jolt of surprise. They collectively turned their gaze toward the main hall, pivoted, and prostrated themselves on the ground. Witnessing this, the surrounding congregation emulated their actions. To the onlookers, it appeared these adherents were paying homage to the Holy Son. Yet, only the Doomsday Believers understood they were bowing to the singular, True God. Every Doomsday Believer felt as though they perceived that awe-inspiring and boundless deity gazing upon them from the heavens, its divine radiance enveloping all existence, igniting an even greater fervor within them. Concurrently, a voice, filling the brothers Hua Yun and Hua Yu with ecstatic joy, resonated in their ears.
