Chapter 61: High-End Faith

……

"However, at least from your purpose, there is no big conflict between us." Nan Feng said inexplicably.

"？？？"

Qian Renxue was dumbfounded.

You have already fought the Elder Hall like that, and there is no conflict? Do you want to hear what you are saying? "Don't look at me with this look. You are not young anymore. Don't look at problems so superficially. You must look at the essence through the phenomenon." Nan Feng said.

"You want to revitalize the faith of the Angel God, so that this god becomes more powerful, right?"

Qian Renxue nodded.

Unifying the continent is just incidental. They only need faith. As for being above ten thousand people, the Qian family with divine inheritance is already at the top of the continent. The replacement of mortal dynasties for ten thousand years and countless tribal wars—they just watched and had no interest in interfering.

Because they are the descendants of gods, the six-winged sacred angels soaring in the sky, and they are born to be looked up to by everyone. They don't need to do those extra things.

Status is based on strength, and their power from the Angel God is unshakable, and their status is also unshakable.

"Then what kind of faith do you want?" Nan Feng asked.

"What do you mean?" Qian Renxue asked, puzzled.

Nan Feng paused, "What do you think faith is?"

"Like the Angel God, when encountering problems, don't care about anything, just bend your knees, hit your head on the ground, and come up with a 'please help me'."

"Is this called faith?"

Qian Renxue's eyelid twitched, "Can you keep your mouth clean?"

"Yes." Nan Feng nodded.

"But why should I hold it back?"

"It's you who asked me, not me begging you to listen. I'm just pointing at your nose and cursing you as a moron, and you have to hold it back. This is what you asked for."

Qian Renxue's face turned black, "Then I won't listen, okay?"

"You're dreaming!" Nan Feng had an expression of looking at a fool.

"I finally have such an opportunity to curse people. You want me to stop before I finish cursing? Do you think it's possible?"

"Listen up!"

"Faith refers to the firm persistence of individuals or groups in religion, philosophy, values, or beliefs. It can be a pious belief in gods, supernatural forces, or moral standards. The object of faith can be a concrete existence or an abstract concept."

"The Angel God faith you are engaged in is the lowest level."

Lowest level?

Qian Renxue's face turned black, "Don't force me."

"Isn't it?" Nan Feng said.

"What is the use of this Angel God faith of yours? What kind of bastards are those who believe in the Angel God?"

"When encountering problems, knees soften, eye sockets turn red, heads smash to the ground, and they cry and howl. The quality of your believers is really low!"

Qian Renxue was speechless for a moment, "Then what else can faith be?"

Isn't the faith of the Angel God born because people in that era of yours thought of relying on it when facing the rampant evil Spirit Masters? "Low-end faith stays at the material level. The believers derived from this kind of faith only know how to ask, ask, ask when encountering problems. You should understand the truth of 'a grain of rice is a favor, a bushel of rice is an enemy', right?" Nan Feng said.

"They ask, you give, then they believe in you. They ask, you don't give, don't help, they turn around and sell you out."

"Is this called faith? Believe in your mother's head?"

Qian Renxue gritted her teeth, looking at Nan Feng, "Then what about high-end faith?"

Nan Feng picked up the teacup and took a sip, "High-end faith can satisfy people's inner spiritual needs and emotional needs, giving people a sense of security when they are helpless, and giving people inner guidance and support when they are confused."

"……"

"Gone?"

"Gone." Qian Renxue's eyelid twitched, "Just pure bluffing?"

Nothing practical, just engaging in abstraction?

"Bluffing?" Nan Feng raised an eyebrow.

"First of all, this is not called bluffing. Secondly, do you think it's simple to bluff people?"

"Physical shackles can be broken by power, but what about ideological shackles?"

"Do you know how hard it is to let someone who has knelt for a long time really stand up?"

"You can pull him up from the ground, you can cut off his whip, but you can't eradicate the slavery in his bones."

"And slavery is contagious. As long as one is left, if you are not careful, this thing will spread rapidly like an infectious disease."

"……"

"Don't understand?" Nan Feng looked at Qian Renxue's somewhat confused look.

"Then I'll tell you a simple and easy-to-understand story."

"There is a small mountain village. There is a big landlord here. The ownership of all the land here belongs to him alone. And the others living here can only borrow land from him to cultivate. And the wealth obtained from cultivation must be handed over to the landlord for the most part. And this landlord doesn't need to do anything. He only needs to watch the people below labor, and he can live without worry, and he is high above. Even, everyone has to thank the landlord for lending them the land."

Qian Renxue frowned, "Is this landlord very strong?"

"Perhaps very strong, just like Spirit Masters are to those ordinary people, but this strength is not insurmountable. As long as there is enough determination, using lives to pile, it is still possible to pile this landlord to death." Nan Feng said.

"Then……"

"Listen to me!"

"……"

"And one day, a group of people came. They told these farmers in the local area that you don't need to hand over all the wealth you worked hard to cultivate to that landlord who does nothing. You should overthrow him and hold the land in your own hands. Without that landlord, you can live better."

"The farmers who heard this idea for the first time stood up very excitedly, picked up hoes, followed this group of outsiders to beat away the landlord. Although this process killed many people, everyone was very happy. After that, they lived a relatively prosperous life for a short time."

"However, the good times didn't last long. One year, a natural disaster occurred. Most people's crops were destroyed by this natural disaster. Only a few people's crops were spared. In order to fill their stomachs without a harvest, everyone chose to use their own land to mortgage to those who had surplus food, in exchange for more food."

"Someone discovered this point. They thought, if only their own land had a harvest, while others didn't, in order to fill their stomachs, others would have to use the same method to exchange their land for more food."

"People with this idea started to sabotage, secretly killing other people's crops at night, leaving only their own……"

"Are those people idiots? Can't they see the problem with this kind of thing?" Qian Renxue couldn't help but interrupt.

"They saw it, but what can they do?" Nan Feng said.

"Kill the crops of the person who sabotaged? Then what do they eat? Everyone starve together?"

"Then……"

"Listen to me!"

"……"

"Someone discovered this problem. They united to find the person who sabotaged and questioned him why he did this. And the answer they got was that this could get more land. Others were naturally very angry. Just to snatch everyone's land, he actually did such a shameless thing."

"Those people originally wanted to report him, but the person who made trouble proposed a cooperation method. He could give them enough food for free, and next, when others came to him to exchange for food with land, he could distribute a part of the newly obtained land to everyone."

"Everyone agreed and really got more land."

"So, the next year, these people who got more land spontaneously started to sabotage, forcing others to use their land to exchange for life-saving food."

"After one conflict after another, the land of this small mountain village finally belonged to one person. Then, this person started his landlord life again. He didn't need to do anything. He just needed to rent out his land and let others labor, and he sat back and enjoyed the fruits."

"Until one day, another group of people came."

"……"
