"My daughter is awake..."
"May God protect us, may God protect us..."
The newcomers kowtowed, wept, and were filled with excitement. When they looked at the statue of the Ziwei Emperor, the excitement and piety in their eyes were beyond compare.
The "young girl" Du Laiqiu walked to Zhou Yan and Erlang Shen's side and whispered a reminder.
“These brothers and sisters have also prayed to our great Lord in the past, and the Lord has answered their prayers. The bald one originally had cancer and was told by doctors that he would not live more than a month. After joining our denomination, his condition has now begun to improve.”
"The woman in the red dress, her daughter was hit by a van and became a vegetable. She had been lying in the hospital for half a year with no hope of waking up. But after praying to our Lord, her daughter woke up in the past week."
"And there's that old man with the Mediterranean hairstyle. His son had been missing for decades and they couldn't find him until he came here. Now he's reunited with his son."
The pure eyes of the "young girl" Du Laiqiu reflected the images of Zhou Yan and Erlang Shen.
“I believe that your prayers will be heard and fulfilled by the Most High and Great, Almighty Lord.”
Erlang Shen stealthily glanced at the people praying around him. It was possible that these people had taken too many hallucinogenic drugs, causing inexplicable organic changes in their bodies. Zhou Yan hadn't noticed anything yet, but the people kneeling and praying below already looked dazed, clearly trapped in hallucinations induced by the drugs.
"I don't want Zhou Yan and Erlang Shen to see the believers who have taken too many hallucinogenic drugs and are in a daze," said "Young girl" Du Laiqiu, blocking the believers from view.
“There are some Taoist priests outside who offer blessings and dream interpretations. Let me take you for a walk.”
Erlang Shen and Zhou Yan had no objections, and the two walked out of the main hall and went to a few temples next door.
Inside the shrine next door, there were people who could interpret divination slips and dreams, as well as an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor. Halfway there, some young Taoist priests offered bamboo juice to quench our thirst.
This bamboo juice is amazing. Fresh bamboo is cut down and placed at an angle over a fire to roast. The liquid inside the bamboo drips down from the bottom of the bamboo into a collection dish.
This plant-based juice has a refreshing and slightly sweet taste; it quenches thirst and leaves your mouth feeling refreshed.
If the bamboo juice isn't enough, there are also some snacks like glutinous rice balls to come.
If Zhou Yan hadn't been absolutely certain that he was here to investigate this cult, he would have thought he was just a tourist.
The tour ended at 1:30 pm.
The speakers on the second floor started broadcasting announcements.
"The Holy Grace Ceremony is about to begin. All believers are requested to assemble in the conference room on the sixth floor."
"The Holy Grace Ceremony is about to begin. All believers are requested to assemble in the conference room on the sixth floor."
"The Holy Grace Ceremony is about to begin. All believers are requested to assemble in the conference room on the sixth floor."
Originally, Du Laiqiu, the "young girl" who had wanted to take Zhou Yan and Erlang Shen to eat qingtuan, asked Zhou Yan.
"Are you two interested in participating in our Holy Grace Ceremony?"
The "young girl" Du Laiqiu's face once again displayed that devout expression that made her face glow.
"I believe that with your abilities, you two will surely receive divine favor."
Zhou Yan crossed his hands in front of his chest.
Qi said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."
Erlang Shen pressed a button in his pocket.
Outside the Ling Building, inside a hotel.
The Celestial Dog sat behind a laptop, which contained surveillance footage of the entire Ocean Building.
Before entering the Ocean Building, Erlang Shen had already hired a hacker to infiltrate the building and gain complete control over everything within it.
However, manpower is limited. At present, Xiaotianquan is mainly monitoring the floors from the second to the sixth floor controlled by the "Tongxing" cult.
Now, the cultists on the second floor, having finished their fried chicken and fries, rubbed their bellies and went up to the sixth floor. The cultists on the sixth floor, dressed in various clothes, went out from different rooms.
The main venue for the Holy Grace Ceremony is the conference room on the sixth floor. The conference room has been renovated and can now accommodate thousands of people, instead of just a few hundred. It is also equipped with various lighting and props.
As the cultists gradually emerged from the various entrances and exits of the conference room, Xiaotianquan began to suspect that these people were not there to participate in a cult meeting, but rather to attend an awards ceremony or something similar.
As people gradually took their seats in the conference room, in one shot, Erlang Shen and Zhou Yan found a seat closest to the camera and sat down. Erlang Shen even made a gesture towards the camera.
The Celestial Hound immediately controlled the camera to rotate, which was a response to Erlang Shen's gesture.
The camera panned to show several of Erlang Shen's subordinates, each equipped with advanced magical artifacts, entering the sixth floor and sitting down in different corners of the conference room.
There are over a thousand people in the meeting room now; no one will care about a few unfamiliar faces.
After the last group of people entered the conference room, everything was ready, and the fluorescent lights in the conference room were turned off one by one.
Darkness enveloped the entire conference room.
……
Inside the meeting room.
Zhou Yan, who was sitting next to Erlang Shen, leaned close to Erlang Shen's ear and whispered.
"One of their demigods was just killed, and a demon-level awakened one just ran away. How come they're acting like nothing happened, going about their business as usual?"
Erlang Shen said in a low voice.
"Because of self-confidence."
Erlang Shen stared at Du Laiqiu, the "girl" sitting in the corner.
According to Bai Ze, this guy should have a fragment of the Taiyi bloodline. Erlang Shen doesn't know what the effect of the Taiyi bloodline is, but he imagines that after having the Taiyi bloodline, the confidence of the Tongxing cult has increased.
In addition, Zhou Yan's side did not actually suffer any losses. Whether it was chasing Zhou Yan or including Erlang Shen in the assassination attempt, Zhou Yan and Erlang Shen were both unharmed. On the contrary, the awakened ones sent by Tongxing were either killed or injured. Tongxing was the one that really suffered losses.
Therefore, if Erlang Shen, who may be a highly skilled person from the common people, comes to us in the future seeking an explanation, there is actually quite a lot of room for negotiation on our side.
Thinking even further ahead, Erlang Shen thought that the higher-ups of Tongxing probably felt that as long as they didn't offend a true god, they had nothing to fear. As for Zhou Yan, Erlang Shen struggled so much against a demigod, so he figured Zhou Yan was probably no match for him.
A spotlight shone on the podium at the very front of the conference room.
The prophet Feng Wanlai reappeared, this elegant woman opening her arms to embrace the light.
Chapter Forty-Six Miracles
The beam of light in the darkness was conspicuous and translucent, shining on the person and giving their body a faint fluorescent glow.
It has a sacred scent.
Legend has it that ancient cavalrymen liked to charge down from high places at dawn, when the sunlight shone behind them, giving them an invincible feeling of heavenly troops descending from the heavens.
Of course, the wind inside the beam of light isn't as heavy and terrifying as a cavalry charge, but when light is used well, the resulting aura enhancement is visible to the naked eye.
“My children…”
The evening breeze swept through the nearly one thousand people in the conference room.
These are all the followers of the Tongxing Sect in Cihe City, whom she has carefully cultivated for several years.
Although an accident occurred when cutting the chives, and the woman who seemed to have a subtle relationship with Lin Ziwei approached a man who could fight a demigod to a standstill, none of that mattered.
As long as it doesn't involve the true god, the threat of demigods is nothing.
Among the high-ranking members of Tongxing, several are members of Congress. Lin Ziwei's lover's new man (Erlang Shen) has no personal combat power or influence that can reach Congress, so what is there to be afraid of?
Feng Wanlai didn't care what Zhou Tao, who had killed Li Zhang, was doing now. Just before the plan succeeded, Feng Wanlai had thought about the predicament she was facing.
There were many difficulties, but after his thoughts swept over them all, Feng Wanlai felt as if he were standing on these difficulties, like building a throne high enough from the bones of his enemies, and then shouting to the believers who were prostrate outside the throne.
"The Lord has come!"
The light dust floating around Feng Wanlai paused after being illuminated by the beam of light, and then dispersed outwards.
Everyone saw a galaxy ripple outwards from Feng Wanlai and drift to all around.
In the corner, Zhou Yan and Erlang Shen frowned slightly.
They saw stars rising and falling around them, and the Milky Way stretching out.
The two seemed to have left Earth and arrived in the vast universe.
Several believers nearby hesitated.
"Holographic projection?"
We're all modern people now. The magical arts that used to fool the public in ancient times can be explained by modern technology. For example, the starry sky surrounding this conference room can be created using holographic projection.
At least many people think so.
"Wait, something's not right!"
"Oh my god, why, I, I feel..."
"I can feel my breath coming in here..."
"A miracle, it really is a miracle!"
Erlang Shen's forehead cracked open, and after staring at his surroundings for a while, he exclaimed in surprise.
"It really is the power of the Milky Way! ≡∩∩〕≥;(£⌒⊙⊙sosUO:"
"Uh, I, I..."
A man stood up and stared intently at a star not far from him.
Zhou Yan and Erlang Shen hadn't noticed anything yet, but the moment the power of the universe flowed from Feng Wanlai's body, many people felt their heartbeats change.
This feeling of unease isn't that my heart is beating too fast or too slow, but rather that I feel like my heart is outside, and something outside is beating rhythmically, which I can perceive through my nerves.
The person who felt the external heartbeat most clearly had already gotten up from their seat and walked to the location of the external heartbeat.
Those are stars.
In the boundless universe, there are stars that belong to each and every one of them.
Once they got close enough, the believers who felt the resonance with their hearts suddenly saw the stars that were originally resting peacefully in their own galaxy suddenly turn into shooting stars and fall towards them.
The sensation of an external heartbeat approaching is so clear that these people can feel the heartbeat moving from a distance to getting closer, and finally falling into their own heart.
"My heart..."
"I...I feel..."
"My God, what is this?"
Those who saw their hearts being struck by stars screamed and shouted.
Zhou Yan glanced at these people shouting and yelling, his expression turning serious.
"Star Soul Enters Life." (Collection)
Spell Name: Star Soul Enters Fate.
Effect: All the celestial stars enter your destiny, and divine power is bestowed upon you.
Erlang Shen's expression also looked rather unpleasant.
"Did they really steal Taiyi's authority?"
Erlang Shen knew what "Star Soul Entering Fate" meant. To put it nicely, it was a high-level divine attack that allowed one to take any of the power of the stars in the heavens and add it to oneself.
However, normally, such divine intervention would involve setting up an altar, offering sacrifices, and asking the stars for mercy. It's nothing like now, where a whole galaxy is laid out for others to choose from.
Heavenly Emperor Taiyi...flow
The Purple Star Emperor...
He truly used his identity as the Lord of All Stars to forcibly distribute the power of all stars among the followers of Tongxing.
After the first group of people received their Star Souls, the remaining group also sensed something, got up one after another, and began to search for their own Star.
On the podium, Feng Wanlai, who belonged to the source of the Milky Way, spoke loudly.
“My children, do not fear, do not hesitate, this is a blessing from the Father. Embrace Him, control Him, and all will be blessed!”
"Hey hey hey! My, my hair..."
A member of the Tongxing Cult touched his head. He was originally bald, but after receiving the Star Soul into his life, his scalp started to itch. Now, when he touched it, oh ho, his hair had grown back.
"My feet! My feet!"
Some people were disabled, but after being possessed by the Star Soul, their hands and feet began to recover. Some fat people started to lose weight, like deflated balloons. Some elderly people's skin began to tighten, and their spirit expanded at a visible speed.
The wind on the platform shouted loudly in the evening.
"Children, look closely, this is the miracle the Lord has given you. As long as you have a sincere faith, the Lord will reward you even more!"
"It's true!"
"I've stood up!"
