Sweeping both worlds: Starting from idealistic martial arts

Chapter 465 Infinite Reincarnation
Where am I?

Li Yan followed the escort team with some trepidation until they arrived at a base.

Since returning from the territory of the Great Zhou not long ago, he has been living a normal life for several days.

Just when he thought Da Zhou's experience was just a minor episode in his life, he was suddenly taken to this base by the local security forces this morning.

Seemingly to comfort him, the accompanying personnel gently reassured him, "Don't worry, this is just some routine questioning and testing. We're just worried that the Great Zhou might use some underhanded tactics on you."

"If the test results are good, you can be sent back today, and you will also receive a subsidy."

"Oh, oh." Li Yan nodded, half believing and half doubting.

After entering the base, he followed the instructions and measured one physical indicator after another.

The entire testing process was monitored and recorded, and then transmitted to the other end.

In the conference room of the capital of the divine kingdom, the local supreme leader was scrutinizing Li Yan in the video with an unreadable expression.

“Your Excellency, Li Yan only went to Da Zhou once. He is not a follower of Fang Can, so there should be no problem detected,” the Minister of Health explained from the side.

"So, do you think that rumor is true?"

The Prime Minister turned to the Minister of Intelligence beside him: "The followers of that god Fang Can are all capable of unleashing the power of the god."

Intelligence Minister Rogoff paused for a moment, then nodded with certainty:
“That’s right. According to the reliable information we’ve received from our spies in other divine kingdoms, as long as you have faith in Fang Can and recite the oath, you can become a little superman in an instant.”

Listening to the intelligence minister's words, the prime minister fell into deep thought. At this moment, the health minister beside him said with concern:

"Your Excellency, could it be that the contents of the 'Chronicle of the Heavenly Emperor' are true? Is the existence of the gods really a conspiracy? Is it because of our faith in the gods that we are unable to cultivate ourselves?"

"What are you saying, Minister Qiao Lifu!" the intelligence minister demanded angrily. "Are you questioning your own faith? You are being disloyal to God!"

"But... the facts are right in front of us."

Qiao Lifu argued, "I heard before I came that those people gained superhuman strength in just one night."

"Furthermore, those superhumans can continuously increase their power through missionary work, similar to that of gods. For every thousand people they preach to, a non-believer can gain the same superhuman power."

"I think you've lost your mind!" the intelligence minister roared. "That's a heresy. If you want to believe, then believe. We will always follow the leadership of God."

Seeing his two ministers arguing, the Prime Minister said with a hint of helplessness, "Enough. This is not the time to argue. You should come up with a solution."

"The trend of faith in Fang Can is irreversible, and we should not go against the tide. At the very least, we should secure a spot," said Health Minister Joliv.

"Absurd! This is capitulationism!" the intelligence minister retorted, turning to the prime minister. "Your Excellency, please don't listen to George's suggestion. Instead, we should take advantage of him."

"Utilize?" Compared to the radical Cholif, the Prime Minister was clearly more receptive to Intelligence Minister Rogoff's proposal: "How do you intend to utilize it?"

“It’s very simple. My subordinates have already contacted a follower of Fang Can in the neighboring divine kingdom. He has already preached to tens of thousands of people and has at least ten non-believers in his hands.”

The intelligence chief revealed a sinister smile of smug satisfaction:
“I pretended to promise him that he would come to our country to spread his faith. Blinded by greed, the guy immediately believed me. In exchange, he was willing to give us half of the non-believers he had.”

"Although we firmly do not believe in Fang Can, as enemies, we should try to squeeze more money out of him."

"Anyway, all that divine power was given by Fang Can. After we absorb it, we can not only increase our strength, but also weaken Fang Can. It's a win-win situation!"

"As for whether we will fulfill our promise after absorbing divine power, isn't that up to our mood? This will surely lead to a crushing defeat for that cultist!"

"I propose that once we absorb divine power and become superhumans, we should report directly to the gods and have that heretic who came to our divine kingdom to preach killed."

As he pondered the other person's reasons, a look of interest appeared on his face; he felt that what the other person said made some sense.

But after hesitating for a moment, he said, "You all go out first, I need to think about it carefully."

Seeing this, the two ministers didn't say much. The two ministers, whose ideas were completely different, snorted at each other and walked straight out of the meeting room, giving the prime minister time to think.

But the moment they stepped outside, their expressions suddenly changed, and they both revealed a slight smile.

Without uttering a word, their hearts continued to communicate in the shadows.

Health Minister: "Long live Fang Can! But will this tactic work?"

“I know the Prime Minister. He’s such an indecisive person. He’ll definitely agree after he’s thought it over. And if he doesn’t agree, does that mean we shouldn’t preach?” the intelligence minister said earnestly.

From beginning to end, before even entering the conference room, they had already been turned by Fang Can's followers next door.

Without using any means, when the foreign teacher position was directly given to him, the feeling of a leap in his life level directly changed his beliefs.

Compared to worshipping one's own country's gods, the benefits of worshipping Fang Can are far superior.

Most people are subconsciously somewhat pragmatic.

A twitching left eye means good fortune, while a twitching right eye means superstition.

In this matter, believe whoever is more spiritual, and believe whoever offers more benefits.

Compared to other gods, Shin Fangcan chose to directly and freely distribute superhuman powers, making the difference in their abilities immediately apparent.

"Besides, are we just going to sit here and wait to die if we oppose it?"

The intelligence minister sneered, "There are too many monks and not enough porridge. Once he joins, he will definitely take a big slice of the pie. We might as well strike first and convert some people ahead of time."

"If we act first and report later, what if he discovers it beforehand?" the Minister of Health hesitated.

"I am the Minister of Intelligence, and we also have our own people in the Propaganda Department."

The intelligence chief sneered, "If I don't report it, he's blind and deaf!"

……

Just as the sea of ​​stars was in full swing.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, inside a quiet room, Fang Can sat cross-legged on the ground.

Fang Can sat cross-legged in the void, his whole body enveloped in radiance.

It wasn't a gentle halo, but rather a visible, violent storm of faith energy!

Endless points of faith, like stardust drawn by gravity, shoot forth from billions of light-years away, from countless life-bearing stars.

The radiance pierced through the limitations of physical space, converging into a tangible, dazzling galaxy within the quiet chamber, continuously bombarding his body. The sheer quantity of that pure white, brilliant divine light overflowed from his body, causing ripples in the space, only to be swallowed up by his body once more.

Beneath his translucent skin, it seemed as if billions of streams of pure energy were surging, colliding, and expanding!

Tiny crystallization cracks instantly appeared on his arm, only to be forcibly closed by an even stronger force in an instant, as it repeatedly endured the tearing of expansion and collapse!

This was because his body was unable to bear the massive amount of faith, forcing Fang Can to adapt to the physical body with its ever-expanding limits.

Each time a crack heals, his physical strength increases to another level. At this moment, the density of every inch of Fang Can's flesh and blood is comparable to that of a black hole, and it continues to rise without end.

From the dawn of yesterday, the power of faith appeared on him from all directions, transcending time and space.

Fang Can also had to constantly cross distances to return the emotions of those believers, while gradually eroding their faith.

Over time, this belief grew exponentially in the sea of ​​stars.

The particles of faith that flow in every second, starting as a trickle, converge into a raging river, and eventually transform into a colossal wave powerful enough to engulf the galaxy.

At this moment, the input of faith has surged from millions and hundreds of millions to tens of billions of faith units per second!

Moreover, this number is still rising at an alarming rate! The 'principal' recovered by this cosmic-level pyramid scheme is pouring in at a scale exceeding its current carrying capacity!

This immense energy, purely composed of faith, and the spiritual imprints extracted from millions of believers, were like millions of invisible needles, stirring up a mental tsunami in his vast spiritual ocean, frantically impacting his true self.

Within the sea of ​​consciousness, the galaxy-like cluster of faith light was no longer docile.

The ball of light was expanding and roaring violently, trying to correct Fang Can's perception and force him to move closer to the form of the most ancient god described in the "Legend of the Heavenly Emperor" setting book.

Left with no other choice, Fang Can could only devour and digest the power of faith with all his might in order to deal with the emotional distortions of those beings.

He felt his power begin to expand wildly at an unbelievable speed.

In order to match the improvement of his realm and not be swayed by the faith of the masses, his consciousness directly simulated the experiences of his past life and began to reincarnate in the past time and time again.

The "Soul Shaping Sutra in the Present World" operates wildly within the core will, forcibly tearing, shattering, purifying, and digesting the tsunami-like faith in each cycle.

Whether it was the words spoken when he first encountered the Tiger Fiend Sect Master, the moves he used to fight against all living beings during the Carnival Day, or the pain he endured during cultivation.

Or perhaps it's the stance when fighting against Ye Qingshi, Liu Qingmeng, Jiang Ning'an, Yan Chuqing, and Feng Qiaoyan.

In short, in each cycle of reincarnation, Fang Can experiences everything from the past again and again, without altering his memories in any way.

Whether it's pain, joy, happiness, depression, frustration, anger, or silence...

All of this is understood, analyzed, and deconstructed through repeated cycles, but without being changed.

In the endless cycle of reincarnation, the more cycles Fang Can persevered, the less he fell into the trap of nihilism. Instead, he felt a deep sense of gratitude for his past experiences.

As Romain Rolland said, "There is only one true heroism in the world: to see the world as it is, and to love it."

At this moment, in the repeated cycles of the [Soul Shaping Scripture in the Present World], Fang Can's will has been strengthened like never before, and his self-awareness has become more profound.

It's like Sisyphus endlessly pushing the rock to the top of the mountain until he fails.

But they still bravely launched an endless charge towards the summit.

In this eternal torment, you must imagine Sisyphus as happy.

For example, Fang Can's persistence in being himself grows stronger with each reincarnation.

Without the slightest boredom or fatigue, they always maintained their original aspirations, stayed true to themselves, and remained forever enthusiastic.

Even now, Fang Can, who has lived through millions of lifetimes in the past 20 years, still retains the initial feeling of being moved.

You can still feel anger when facing an enemy, still crave delicious food, and still feel joy when you see your loved one...

As Fang Can's resolve strengthened, he could clearly feel a subtle, almost imperceptible change beginning to occur in his body and his level of understanding.

It is no longer just a matter of accumulating energy, but a qualitative change from quantitative change.

Transformation from the mundane to a form of existence that is closer to the underlying rules of the universe!
His five senses began to be elevated.

Even without using the inheritance, one can hear a believer reciting an oath on a distant, edge-of-the-world galaxy.

You can see eagles soaring billions of light-years away, and you can smell the faint aroma of cooking oil emanating from the dying stars...

"I think I can vaguely see the barrier to the fifth level of the realm." Fang Can opened his eyes, not with the weariness of a million reincarnations, but with high spirits.

For example, the prerequisite for Bai Xiaosheng to digest the [Fifth Rank - Uncrowned King] potion was to record a sensational event that stirred up various countries.

At this moment, Fang Can could sense that if he wanted to enter the fifth stage, the difficulty would be many times greater because his foundation was too solid.

It would take at least half of the beings in the star sea believing in him and using the light of faith to wash over the fifth-level barrier in order to completely overcome this constraint.

However, the faith that Fang Can has collected at this moment is less than one ten-millionth of this goal.

But it doesn't matter, because compared to the previous trial and error, at least Fang Can can now see the progress bar for officially entering the fifth stage of the transformation.

The moment the BOSS's health bar is revealed, his death is inevitable.

"Moreover, I don't need to lift a finger. The seeds have already been sown, and great scholars will naturally interpret the scriptures for me." Fang Can smiled slightly, watching those believers spread their teachings all over the star sea for their own benefit, proselytizing wildly.

Compared to the ignorant civilians, the high-ranking officials of Xinghai were the first to be bought off because of their high value in uniting the people.

At this moment, the upper echelons of the Star Sea Kingdoms are carrying out reforms from top to bottom at a frenzied pace.

With the high-ranking officials being bribed, the severe situation of the believers being kept in check immediately loosened, and the era of great missionary work broke out!

Qian Lin and other believers, who were already in a difficult situation, suddenly discovered that their comments had been unbanned.

Instead, those who opposed it began to fall into information cocoons under the control of the propaganda department, becoming fools to be played with by AI.

Meanwhile, Fang Can was preparing to break through to the fifth level...

In the present world, superpowered beings from outer space are about to arrive on Earth.
