I wield power with my innate talents, and forge the Heavenly Court.

Liu Feng sat blankly in the Earth God Temple, still feeling lingering fear as he thought about what had happened.

After a long while, Liu Fengshi suddenly came to his senses and remembered the large number of incense offerings that had suddenly appeared earlier.

Could it be.
As Liu Feng murmured to himself, a single thought instantly descended to the mortal realm, and he looked towards the earth god temple.

Sure enough, there were three sticks of incense that had burned out, with wisps of smoke rising gently.

He wondered why there had suddenly been such a large influx of religious offerings.
These must be the villagers of Blackstone Village. After a night of fear and trembling, they discovered that although ghostly wails and howls echoed through the village at night, no one was injured or killed.

They believed this must be the result of the land spirits protecting their village.

That's why they gathered in front of the Earth God Temple, performed a ritual of sacrifice and thanksgiving, which brought them a large number of believers and incense offerings, ultimately stabilizing the realms of immortals and the underworld.

but
Feeling the empty divine power within the soul space.

Liu Feng could only sigh inwardly, knowing that it would be difficult to exterminate the ghosts for a long time tonight.

However, to his surprise, when evening came, the villagers of Black Stone Village, who had returned to their village, gathered again in front of the Earth God Temple and performed a sacrifice, which gave him a lot of divine power again.

For the next period of time, Liu Fengshi began to repeat the behavior of the previous day: at night he would kill ghosts and purify the yin energy, and during the day he would continuously strengthen and stabilize the immortal and underworld realms.

Once the realms of immortals and the underworld are completely stable, Liu Feng will occasionally spend time sorting out the rules.

This time, however, he has to be much more careful.

Sometimes, he would only be doing the rule-making for a breath or two, and if he felt the celestial and underworld realms begin to tremble slightly, he would immediately stop and switch to the rule-making and strengthening of the celestial and underworld realms.

Meanwhile, after confirming that there would be basically no problems with Liu Feng in Blackstone Village, Wang Chao had a thought and left Blackstone Village.

When it reappeared, it had already arrived at another village a hundred miles away.

Xiahe Village, with a population of over two hundred, like Heishi Village, has lost its ancestral spirits.

Next, the dynasty naturally repeated its previous actions.

However, this time the dynasty bestowed an imperial edict not upon the Earth God of Fortune, but rather guided the villagers to establish a worship of the River God.

As time went by, the dynasty began to establish and spread the belief in mountain gods, land gods, and river gods throughout this world.

Gradually, the names of the mountain god, the land god, and the river god began to spread.

In particular, some villages where ancestral spirits were weak or even gone began to convert to Christianity and build temples to mountain gods, land gods, or river gods.

Of course, since they do not have a divine position, they can only worship existing mountain gods, land gods, or river gods.

However, as long as they build the corresponding temples and go to the temples where the true gods reside to invite the gods.

Then their village would also be brought under the jurisdiction of the mountain god, the land god, or the river god, who would be able to protect them from being harmed by ghosts.

After these mountain gods, land gods, or river gods received enough incense offerings and faith, their power began to grow rapidly.

Once their strength reaches a certain level, the divine positions within their soul space immediately begin to shift and transform rapidly, with countless rule patterns spreading out, evolving into more profound and complex rule patterns and even more powerful divine positions.

In a large city, Liu Feng closed his eyes slightly, sensing the rapid changes in the divine position within his soul space and comprehending its various mysteries.

Finally, after about an incense stick's time had passed, the changes in the divine positions suddenly stopped, and abruptly transformed back into divine position cards.

[The positions of the gods of heaven and earth: the position of the City God of Yunchuan Mountain City.]

Supernatural powers and authority: Communication between Yin and Yang, soul-locking and ghost-summoning, and bestowing titles upon subordinates.

Feeling the various changes after his ascension to godhood, Liu Fengshi couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

Now, not only has his own cultivation level broken through and become incredibly powerful, but his domain has also covered all the affiliated villages of Yunchuan Mountain City.

Within this range, his power will be greatly enhanced, and he will not need to consume divine power to mobilize the power of the rules.

Most importantly, he could also bestow divine titles upon his subordinates.

Finally, he was able to delegate a large number of tedious tasks to his subordinates to do.

Otherwise, if he were to handle all matters concerning the entire territory by himself, he wouldn't need to do anything else.

It was fine for just one village, but as the territory expanded, even though mobilizing the power of the rules didn't require much effort, it made him somewhat strapped for cash.

In the following period, Liu Fengshi began to bestow titles and dispatch landowners to various villages and towns.

Whenever a local deity is appointed, the space between the celestial and underworld realms is strengthened to a certain extent, becoming more stable.

Thus, as one land deity after another was granted a title, the celestial and mortal realms grew stronger and more stable.

Similarly, its ability to organize chaotic rules is also becoming stronger and stronger.

Most importantly, the land in each village and town can also be governed by rules, and they even have the support of the entire Immortal and Underworld Realms. Their understanding of rules is much stronger than when Liu Feng was in charge.

In addition, Liu Fengshi can also mobilize the power of everyone to conduct a deeper and wider sorting of rules, using the entire Immortal and Underworld realms as a foundation.

As time went on, the realms of immortals and the underworld delved deeper into the realm of rules, and their connection with the rules of heaven and earth became increasingly close.

Even before Liu Feng gained greater authority and power, the Immortal and Underworld realms had already begun to slowly and proactively expand outwards.

Even though its expansion is not fast, it still represents a fundamental difference from the past.

Following Liu Feng, powerful mountain gods, land gods, and river gods began to appear in various parts of the world, evolving into even stronger city gods, mountain gods, river gods, and so on.

From the perspective of the dynasty, the entire world was scattered with regions bathed in a bright yellow glow.

Subtly, these regions resonated and echoed each other, with strands of golden rules connecting their cores.

However, these golden threads of rules are still too few and too fragile to connect the bright yellow radiance with the celestial and underworld realms.

Even so, the appearance of countless immortal and underworld beings has gradually led to a return to order in the rules of this world.

Even the forces invaded by the other great world of feudal lords began to be driven out little by little by the world's will.

Sensing all this, Wang Chao couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

Ultimately, it was a world will driven solely by instinct; it had no intention of feigning weakness to lower the enemy's guard, waiting until it had amassed sufficient power before launching a counterattack, wiping out all forces that had invaded the world, and quickly escaping its hiding place.

Once its power is enhanced to a certain extent, it will react immediately and begin to expel the invading forces from the Great World of the Lords.

Even after the invading forces are completely driven out, they may not immediately leave the Great World of the Lords and hide far away. Instead, they may take the opportunity to invade the other world.

This is the difference between the world's will and intelligent life; it has no idea of ​​temporarily avoiding conflict or accumulating strength, but only the instinctive will to immediately respond according to the current situation.

However, the dynasty had anticipated this, so it only sighed slightly and didn't take it too seriously.

The rules governing divine positions in both the celestial and underworld realms have gradually become integrated into the world.

Even if this world is eventually swallowed up by another powerful world, these rules will most likely be integrated into the other world.

It is important to understand that the divine positions transformed by dynasties are secondary extensions of the world's will and the rules of heaven and earth, and can, to a certain extent, help the world's will operate and regulate the rules of heaven and earth.

Moreover, once a deity who has merged with a divine position goes against the general trend of heaven and earth and the will of the world, the will of the world can instantly strip him of his divine position and knock him off the altar.

It can be said that this is a group of laborers who work for the world's will, and everything is under the control of the world's will.

It's unlikely that many global powers would reject such a group of working people.

At that time, the realms of immortals and the underworld, as well as the divine system, will naturally be reborn in another great world of feudal lords.

Therefore, for the dynasty, the final outcome of this world was not really that important.

Whether it lives or dies, it can achieve the dynasty's goals.

As the dynasty had anticipated, the world's will retaliated, immediately triggering a response from the other world's will.

In an instant, the other side intensified its invasion.

"boom!"

In that instant, the entire small world trembled, causing everyone to jump in fear, thinking that an earth dragon was about to rise up.

And those powerful figures at the highest levels of the world are able to sense even more.

They clearly felt that the alien power in the world, which had been gradually fading, suddenly became stronger again and quickly surpassed its previous intensity.

Even the rules themselves have become more turbulent and chaotic, making it even more difficult for them to comprehend the rules and improve their cultivation.

At the same time, the power of the entire world is being eroded and transformed by this alien force.

Those animals and beasts, birds, snakes, and insects, which already had little intelligence, began to mutate rapidly and began to attack normal life forms, especially humans, who represented the world's civilized order, as their primary targets.

In an instant, chaos reigned throughout the world.

Only those places with City God lands can suppress this sudden chaos and do their best to maintain the normal operation of the rules.

However, it seems that the will of another world, through its power invading this world, has noticed the anomalies in these places and has begun to influence those mutated monsters, constantly launching attacks on these places.

At the same time, the widespread chaos in other areas also caused people to become restless, and endless negative emotions rose up.

Furthermore, because the rules of this world are chaotic and the yin-yang order is unbalanced, these negative emotions have nowhere to go.

Ultimately, these negative forces, merging with the chaotic rules of the world and the forces invading from the other world, gradually twisted and mutated into streams of filth that eroded everything in the world.

Whether it's the normal world and its inhabitants, or the invading forces and those mutated monsters, all are being eroded by this pure and turbid energy.

Even the local city gods and earth gods are extremely troubled by this endless stream of foul air, which keeps rising higher and higher.

However, as word spread that the locations of the City Gods, Earth Gods, Mountain Gods, and River Gods in various places were clearly different from those in other places, more and more places began to worship the City Gods, Earth Gods, Mountain Gods, and River Gods.

Even the world's top leaders, after learning of these circumstances, began to gather to discuss whether to conduct a nationwide sacrificial ceremony and extend it to the entire world.

As the dynasty had predicted, the system of city gods, land gods, mountain gods, and river gods quickly spread throughout the world.

The situation in the world today is getting worse and worse. The rules of heaven and earth are in chaos, and the air is filled with filth, making their cultivation extremely difficult.

If one insists on cultivating, there is even a possibility of being corrupted by the impure energy and transforming into a monster.

At this time, they suddenly discovered that the laws of heaven and earth in the location of the City God and the Land God were still in a relatively stable and orderly state, which could temporarily provide them with a place for cultivation, so they naturally flocked to it.

They even began studying the process of the enshrinement of the City God, the Land God, the Mountain God, and the River God, hoping that they too could become similar deities.

The dynasty naturally did not stop this, and even secretly facilitated it to some extent.

Especially with the complete development of the system of City God, Land God, Mountain God, and River God.

The celestial and underworld realms were completely united, and a bright yellow light filled the heavens and earth. The dynasty immediately made corresponding adjustments to the rules governing the celestial and underworld realms and the divine positions.

This allows powerful cultivators to perceive with their divine senses, delve into the realms of immortals and the underworld, gather divine power and strange energy within them, and then evolve their own divine positions.

This has attracted countless practitioners.

In an instant, the world began to be filled with a large number of gods, the chaotic rules were suppressed and sorted out, and the corrupt forces were purified.

In fact, what the dynasty initially wanted was to completely remove the restrictions on the Heavenly Rank and allow everyone to merge and evolve into the Heavenly Rank.

However, even at this point, the world's will and the rules of heaven and earth remained rigid and inflexible.

The divine positions are those that help the world's will operate according to its rules, maintain order in the universe, and shepherd all living beings. They are extensions of the world's will and the rules of the universe, and can only be held by a minority.

If it weren't for the current special circumstances, facing a powerful invasion from a foreign enemy, most of the gods today would probably be unable to condense and evolve their divine positions.

Under normal circumstances, only when some of the rules of heaven and earth are bloated or chaotic will the world's will condense into corresponding divine positions, which will be contested and merged by powerful cultivators.

It is even possible that, as the rules return to order, they will be thoroughly sorted out and perfected, and then the world's will will remove them from their divine positions.

As for what happens to the deities who have merged with divine positions, the world's will will naturally bestow merit rewards upon them.

Whether the gods are willing or not is beyond the consideration of the world's will. (End of Chapter)
