The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2372 The upper class is well-fed, while the lower class goes hungry.

Lin Chen was quite surprised: "Don't the Path of Willpower and the Path of Qi Refining conflict?"

"Yes, there is no conflict."

Yan Chenglong said with great interest, "Even many disciples of the Sea God Sect cultivate their Qi while simultaneously collecting willpower for their practice."

Lin Chen immediately became interested: "You're from the Moon Goddess Sect, can you join the Sea God Sect?"

Yan Chenglong chuckled: "The Sea God Cult is a religion, not a sect. Many of the middle-level members of the Sea God Cult are themselves sect leaders. They use their status as sect leaders to promote the Sea God Cult within their own sphere of influence, collect faith and spiritual power, and help with cultivation. So, being in a sect and believing in the Sea God Cult are not contradictory."

Nalan Wushuang asked curiously, "Since there's no conflict, wouldn't it be icing on the cake for cultivation? Why can't it be widely implemented?"

Yan Chenglong explained, "The Path of Vow Power and the Path of Qi Refining do not conflict, but once you join the Sea God Cult, you become a follower of the Sea God Cult. If the Sea God Cult is in trouble, no one can stand aside; it's the kind of situation where you can't refuse. This is something you've sworn an oath to the Heavenly Dao..."

"The Sea God Cult is the only dominant force in the North Sea, and no one dares to provoke it, so many people join without worry. However, not everyone is willing to be controlled by others. Those who are truly powerful and confident enough to reach the top are often unwilling to do so."

Lin Chen nodded: "There's no such thing as a free lunch."

"Correct!"

Yan Chenglong agreed, saying, "That's exactly the point. That's why even though the Sea God Sect has grown to a considerable size, many sects are still unwilling to join."

Gu Yuexi asked curiously, "So you're still planning to join?"

Yan Chenglong chuckled and whispered, "I'm not planning to join. I'm planning to secretly get my own Sea God Token for myself..."

Lin Chen was stunned: "This works?"

Yan Chenglong looked mysterious: "The Sea God Cult has countless members and has distributed countless Sea God Tokens. Although there are corresponding formations on the Sea God Tokens, someone eventually figured out a way to break them, making the Sea God Tokens untraceable and turning them into unregistered entities. You know what I mean?"

Hearing this, Lin Chen roughly understood and couldn't help but chuckle. He hadn't expected that even the Sea God's Token would have such an unregistered entity. "I understand."

Yan Chenglong laughed and said, "In the end, many Sea God Tokens will be leaked out and eventually deciphered by experts as unregistered tokens. These tokens cannot be tracked. As long as you are not unlucky enough to run into the Sea God Cult's patrol team and get caught red-handed, you will be fine."

"With the blacklisted token, you can spread your faith and collect the power of faith. If you want, you can even become the god that everyone worships."

Nalan Wushuang asked curiously, "What would happen if we were captured by the Sea God Cult?"

Yan Chenglong spread his hands: "There are two possible outcomes. First, you refuse to confess and are killed, and the Star Gods are scattered. Second, you pay a large sum of compensation, including spirit stones and wish power. In the future, the wish power you pay regularly will be greatly increased. As long as you can do that, you will be fine. You can continue to hold the Sea God Token, but you have to join the Sea God Cult and become a follower of the Sea God."

After a pause, Yan Chenglong said in a low voice, "The core formation of the Sea God's Token, which is the formation for collecting willpower, is controlled by the Sea God and a very small number of high-ranking members. No one else can break it. This is the foundation of the Sea God's Sect. If this is leaked, then I'm afraid everyone will want to replace the Sea God and establish themselves as kings, no longer subject to the constraints and exploitation of the Sea God's Sect."

Zi Yun frowned and said, "Since the Path of Wish Power is so miraculous, could it be that in such a vast Immortal Realm, only the Sea God Sect possesses the cultivation inheritance of the Path of Wish Power, and other places do not have it?"

Yan Chenglong shook his head and then explained, "Of course not. The Immortal Realm is vast, and the Qi Refining Path is naturally the most popular. However, besides the Qi Refining Path, the Willpower Path is also quite prevalent. In fact, the three religions of the Eastern Empire were originally born from the Willpower Path. It was only through the development of time that they merged with the Qi Refining Path and eventually became what they are today."

"The Path of Vow Power is naturally not bad, but it collects the power of faith. To cultivate a peak Great Luo Immortal, the number of believers needed is enormous. So, the Path of Vow Power may seem simple, but it is actually quite difficult."

Lin Chen nodded in understanding: "In the path of Qi Refining, everyone is equal. I wish that those at the top of the power path would be well-fed, while those below would go hungry..."

Yan Chenglong nodded: "That's pretty much the idea. But Brother Lin, you mustn't say this outside. The Sea God Cult has many members, and you can easily offend someone if you're not careful."

Lin Chen hummed in agreement and steered the conversation back on track: "Are you planning to get an unregistered Sea God Token, then promote it on Moon God Island and collect wish power?"

Yan Chenglong chuckled: "It doesn't necessarily have to be on Moon Goddess Island. There are countless islands in the North Sea, many of which have a large number of mortals, but no immortal sects. These people are like wild rice, so it's very easy to spread their faith to them. Of course, there aren't many places like that anymore, since all the good spots have already been taken. I just want to have some fun..."
