Devouring the Stars: Rising from the Snow Eagle System

Chapter 232 The Grand Plan to Spread Faith

"Let's start spreading the faith."

Zhou Lin summoned the Emperor of Guixu and instructed him to first conduct the activity within the capital, ideally spreading it to smaller universes from the perspective of True Gods and higher beings.

In response, Zhou Lin used the credit that the Earth God King had promised to distribute to a large amount of resources, rewarding anyone who could spread faith within his small universe.

As for the entire Cangyuan Kingdom? He doesn't have that capability yet.

A large amount of resources were invested, and the effects were immediate.

Zhou Lin's palace is divided into inner and outer cities. The outer city is reserved for ordinary Chaos Realm cultivators and elite Eternal True Gods, while the inner city is for Chaos Realm Transcendence cultivators and God Kings who are qualified to enter.

On this day, a notice was posted on the outer city wall.

"What?! Spreading faith in a miniature universe can earn you a thousand Chaos Crystals?!"

"The Void God is a hundred grains of cosmic sand? My God."

"Not only that, the Eternal True God spread his faith and directly received ten thousand cosmic sands!"

Countless true gods and void true gods gathered in front of the palace, staring at the flamboyant proclamation with bloodshot eyes, as if they had witnessed some earth-shattering fortune.

They had never heard of such a thing before.

"Quiet down!" Emperor Guixu personally took charge, with a large number of Chaos Realm beings standing behind him to maintain order. After the many beings quieted down, he slowly said, "The exchange will begin at this time tomorrow. The number of slots is limited, so it will end when they are all gone."

Ten thousand cosmic sands is a huge sum of money for most eternal true gods, enough to tempt them. They never expected it could be distributed directly.

Zhou Lin calculated the minimum limit based on the true god's small universe of 100 million light-years, the void and eternal universes, with the diameter increasing by ten times and the volume increasing by a thousand times.

Of course, the Eternal True God level should theoretically be 100,000 cosmic sands, but the Cangyuan Kingdom's economy cannot keep up, so it can only be limited to 10,000.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the True Gods only receive a thousand Chaos Crystals as a reward. They are the most numerous group of True Gods on the Origin Continent, with each large city containing trillions of them.

There are very few Eternal True Gods; even a hundred would only require a million cosmic sands. Zhou Lin knew that True Gods, especially Void True Gods, were the real main force, so he chose to exploit the Eternal True Gods.

The number of small cosmic beings among tens of millions of true gods is greater than that of an eternal true god, not to mention the astonishing numbers of billions or even trillions.

Each of these miniature universes contains billions upon billions of beings...

Those who transcend the Chaos Realm typically possess a net worth of hundreds of billions of cosmic sands.

Hundreds of billions of cosmic sands are roughly equivalent to millions of merits. Of course, that's for the Chaos Realm. For the God-King level, these currencies are of little significance.

There are plenty of god-kings willing to exchange merits for cosmic sand.

However, exchanging cosmic sand for merit would likely cost much more than the actual price for anyone to do it. Zhou Lin's 80 million merits could be exchanged for at least a trillion cosmic sands.

Some god-kings are tirelessly gathering cosmic sand.

Then replace the more common Chaos Crystals with Cosmic Sand...

The exchange rate between cosmic sand and chaos crystals is 1:10000.

With large-scale exchanges, the ratio could be as low as 1:13000.

Taking into account domestic inventory, aid from the Tianmu Kingdom, and some money from Emperor Guixu's own pocket, Zhou Lin produced an astronomical amount of Chaos Crystals.

"Just how big of a reward will I get this time?"

Zhou Lin was getting impatient, but he still had to wait a while.

Because there simply aren't that many true gods in the capital!
Not to mention the True Gods who could reside in the capital of Cangyuan Kingdom, all of whom were either extremely wealthy or of high status. Those gathered outside the palace were almost all there for various reasons to trade in the city. That's why Zhou Lin only gave them one day. One day on the Origin Continent was equivalent to one year on Earth, which was enough time for the True Gods in the wilderness and other large cities to come upon hearing the news.

……

As night falls, the city remains bustling with activity.

At the city gates, colorful rays of light converged, and countless true gods lined up to enter the city, stretching as far as the eye could see. The entrances to the nine city gates were all occupied by eternal true gods who maintained order.

"The scale of this invasion is terrifying," Emperor Guixu exclaimed. "Your Majesty, your actions are truly astonishing."

He had never seen such a large number of true gods gathered before.

If there were a God-King of the Treasure Refining Stream who could forge a mechanical treasure capable of containing so many True Gods, any Eternal True God would be annihilated.

“For a true god, even a thousand Chaos Crystals would be enough to make them risk their lives.” The Refining Void God King shook his head and said, “You have a higher birth, so you probably don’t understand the value of this.”

Although all adults on the continent of origin are true gods, the wealth they enjoy varies depending on the family they are born into.

The Refining Void God King, of humble origins, was most aware of the value of Chaos Crystals.

Zhou Lin laughed and said, "In a large city, the cost for a True God to live there for one cycle is one Chaos Crystal, while the cost to support a force for one cycle is three Chaos Crystals on average. That's right, Void Refining."

The Refining Void God King looked at Zhou Lin in astonishment. He had not expected that the ruler of Cangyuan Kingdom would also know about the underlying environment of the Origin Continent.

"It seems the ruler's origins are also quite humble," the Refining Void God King muttered to himself. He had once served as a guest minister in the Thunder Ancient Kingdom and had interacted with several monarchs.

Some of the monarchs of this ancient Thunder Kingdom were of good birth; during the time of the True Gods, they could enjoy ten grains of cosmic sand per era.

"No wonder. True gods only live for 30,000 epochs. If they earn two Chaos Crystals per epoch, it would take 500 epochs to earn that many."

Emperor Guixu looked at Zhou Lin and asked, "Your Majesty, there isn't much time left until dawn. Do you intend to make your own appearance?"

The nights on the Origin Continent are long. The city is filled with singing and dancing, bright lights, and overflowing taverns. Perhaps it's because they're going to get a hundred cosmic sands tomorrow, so many Void Gods dare to come and spend some money.

Zhou Lin's will encompassed billions of kilometers, and he felt the cause and effect brought about by each person, as well as the heartfelt joy of each true god.

They were overjoyed at the prospect of obtaining the Chaos Crystal.

One by one, the true gods were praising Zhou Lin. To them, this seemed to be more than just a simple transaction; it was as if a ray of dawn had shone into their lives.

The night was cold, and snowflakes kept falling, but the hearts of every true god were burning with passion.

That joy seemed to materialize.

boom!
Zhou Lin naturally comprehended the ultimate branch of the Void Realm Dao's soul, and the improvement of the soul would also improve the will.

"What is this, Your Majesty?!"

"What terrifying mental fortitude! The ruler is probably a god-king from ancient times, but this is definitely beyond the level of a god-king!"

The gods didn't dare to even breathe loudly.

When one's mental will breaks through, it should normally be silent, but Zhou Lin made his divine heart shine and release this pressure.

It wasn't to reprimand his subordinates, but to make them understand how strong he was, so that they would follow him more wholeheartedly from then on.

"I've gained some insights, and my soul and will have undergone a transformation." Zhou Lin smiled and said, "We can start preparing for tomorrow. Emperor Guixu and God King Lianxu, you two will be in charge of the specific matters."
