The first city Tao Tie visited was Erliuqi City. This is Jin Yu Erliuqi's mundane foundation in the Dayin Realm. The population of this city alone is greater than that of the seven cities in the Qingshui River Basin combined. There are many internal forces in Erliuqi City, but they are divided into distinct classes. Moreover, there is a huge gap in strength between different classes, showing a fault-like characteristic. Standing side by side at the top are the gods and the temple. The God Clan is the bloodline clan of Jinyu Erliuqi, and the temple is the church of believers who worship Jinyu Erliuqi. In terms of blood relationship, the former is closer to Jinyu Erliuqi; in terms of faith, the latter is closer to Jinyu Erliuqi. In addition, most of the temple’s high-ranking officials are from the gods. So for Jin Yu Er Liu Qi, the relationship between the gods and the temple is like the palm and the back of the hand, both are flesh.
Therefore, the two are deliberately allowed to maintain a relationship of fighting but not breaking. This is a very good idea and has been executed very well. The 267 Gods and the 267 Temple not only compete with each other, but also join forces to suppress other classes in the 267 City. Especially those forces that lean towards the gods of the earth, and those families that want to follow the path of human ghosts, ancestral spirits, and gods to replace Jin Yu Er Liu Qi. In essence, the ownership of the land and population of the entire Golden Feather Domain belongs to the Golden Feather God. Jinyu 267 only has the right to use 267 city. The Golden Feather 267 God Clan and the Temple only have the management rights taken over from Him. This provides a basis for the existence of some families that follow the path of ghosts, ancestral spirits, and gods, and the fear that the 267 gods and temples dare not wantonly destroy these families. Genocide is fine, but it can’t be too frequent. Otherwise, it would not be ruling the 267 cities on behalf of the Golden Feather God, but digging out the foundation of the Golden Feather God. If this were really done, even if Jinyu Tianshen could not take care of it for the time being, Jinyu Erliuqi would have to destroy this batch of gods and temples first and create a new batch. All in all, City 267 is a microcosm of the Golden Feather Territory, with distinct features but also chaos everywhere. After wandering around Erliuqi City, Tao Tie still had a question that remained unanswered. If the 267 Gods and the Temples were afraid to go too far when targeting those human, ghost, and ancestral spirit families, then why did they tolerate the survival of those forces that leaned towards the gods of the earth, and they survived quite well? All the authority of the laws of the Golden Feather Realm, even those related to the mountains and rivers of the earth, were occupied by the Golden Feather God and his subordinate gods and servants. There is no earth god at all! With this question in mind, Tao Tie came to Siyijiu City, wanting to see the situation there and make a comparison. The City of 419 is the secular foundation of Jinyu 419. It is exactly the same as City 267 in every aspect, including the tolerance of the 419 God Clan and the 419 Temple towards those forces that are pro-earth. A single piece of evidence is not enough, but if the same situation occurs twice or more, we must carefully consider the deeper meaning behind it.
So Tao Tie, who had originally planned to visit all the thousands of cities in the Jinyu Domain, toured even more enthusiastically. He really wanted to find out the real reason behind this situation. Just when Tao Tie was wandering around, Jinyu 419 returned to the Jinyu Temple. "What about 267?" The real body of the Golden Feathered God who had returned from the Void True Pantheon outside the domain sat upright on the throne at the top, condescendingly summoning all the subordinate gods and following gods, majestically shouting at the Golden Feathered Four One Nine who had hurried back. When the gods and subordinate gods heard this voice, they knew that the Golden-Feathered God was hiding great anger. I don’t know what made the gods angry at this pantheon. Jinyu Siyijiu, who was kneeling below, cried out in pain, knowing that if he didn't handle it properly, he would be crushed to ashes and completely destroyed. Then Four One Nine directly held out the spores and said in a trembling voice: "God, when Er Liu Qi was carrying out your orders, he was ambushed by the rats of the Heroic Spirit Society and was accidentally captured. According to the information I have found out, Er Liu Qi has been refined into a divine puppet by the rats of the Heroic Spirit Society!" After saying these words, Siyijiu slammed his forehead heavily on the floor, raised his hands high, and raised his butt high. Respectful to the extreme, and humble to the extreme. The emotion that is stronger and more extreme than both is fear! Siyijiu knew that whether he lived or died depended on a thought from the Golden Feathered God. "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" The Golden Feathered God roared angrily, "The so-called Heroic Spirit Association is nothing but a group of rats in the gutter. How can they have the ability to capture my subordinate god!" While roaring loudly, the Golden-Feathered God took away the handful of spores and began to investigate. Four-one-nine was pinned to the floor of the temple by an overwhelming force. The teeth-grinding crunching sound continued to be heard. This is what happened because 419's body was being squeezed rapidly, like an egg being crushed by a punch press. The force applied by the Golden Feathered God was just right, exactly the limit that Siyijiu could withstand. With just a little more strength, 419 could be crushed to pieces. However, as Golden Feather God explored the spores more and more deeply, the force applied to Siyijiu became less and less. "Huh... I survived." Siyijiu breathed a sigh of relief. Although the stone was still hanging, at least it was not high enough to kill it if it fell. "Four One Nine, are you sure everything you said is true?" The Golden-Feathered God clenched his right hand vigorously, and the spores floating in front of him disappeared immediately. His questioning voice was majestic, angry, and yet concealed a hint of coldness. All those who belonged to God and followed God in the temple knew that if the answer given by 419 was not even slightly untrue, 419 would still die. Compared with lip service and disloyalty, what the Golden Feathered God cannot tolerate even more is deception.
He always considered himself wise and great. How can a wise person be deceived, how can he allow himself to be deceived? Siyijiu recalled what the people from Dayong Realm told him when he met them in Fushui City, and replied firmly: "Venerable God, I am sure that what I said is what I know, and I dare not lie in the slightest." "Ah." The Golden Feathered God stared at Siyijiu for a while. The divine consciousness and some other abilities repeatedly distinguish the truth from falsehood in the 419 words, as well as the various states of the divine body, divinity, godhead, and divine power. If he finds anything amiss, the Golden Feathered God will never let Siyijiu off easily. At this moment, all the gods in the temple focused their attention on himself, but Siyijiu entered an extremely strange state. In the words of that Dayong man, even the god of your Dayin world, as long as you believe that what you say is true, it can be true. Haven't you discovered that? 419 didn’t know whether the other gods had discovered it, but it didn’t. It doesn't even know how to become a god. He only remembered what he had accomplished and what state he had reached, and then he was promoted to the Golden Feather Temple and became a subordinate god of the Golden Feather God. He also owns a city in the mortal world that serves as the foundation of his faith. However, after the advice of the great mediocre man, 419 personally experienced it again this time and finally understood what it meant to think that what I said was true. Because it is a god, it has no flesh and blood, and its essence is a true spirit. It was just that a bit of divinity was born within the true spirit, and the divinity burned out the divine fire, which in turn absorbed the divine power. The divine fire forged the divine power and burned out a divine nature. The true spirit was placed in the divine nature and became one with it. In short, God is the Godhead, and the Godhead is God, which is the true Spirit. And the true spirit is all in the mind. 419 idealistically believed that what it reported to the Golden-Feathered God was the truth, and it presented an open and frank appearance. Even if this openness is shrouded in fear. However, the more afraid 419 was, the more the Golden Feathered God and other subordinate gods believed in 419's openness. "Go back to class." The Golden Feathered God waved his hand. Siyijiu immediately kowtowed, stood up, and returned to his original position. This is how I finally survived. At the same time, from the vacant positions 256, streams of divine power flowed toward 419. These divine powers enriched 419's body, amplified 419's divine power, and made 419's divinity even purer. In front of all the gods and subordinate gods, the Golden-Feathered God raised the godhood level of Siyijiu and told his subordinates that from now on, working for him would no longer be an act of helplessness, and it would no longer only be a punishment but also a reward! Well…… No one who is of God or from God is moved by this. Who knows how long the Golden-Feathered God's will will remain firm this time?
What if it recurs after just a short period of time? Wouldn't that be a waste of time? The Golden-Feathered God did not pay attention to the reactions of the gods under him or those who followed him. He did not care. Leaving behind an incarnation, the real body left the Golden Feather Temple and descended to the mortal world. The divine sense of the Golden Feather God instantly covered the entire Golden Feather Domain and conducted several rounds of scans. The Heroic Spirits Association is actually a rebellious organization established by a group of remnants of gods who have not yet died. For example, for 267, after its fall, if the fragments of its divinity were not destroyed, or for unknown reasons drifted into the astral realm, and there were still its bloodline clansmen or believers in the mortal world who kept calling for it, then it would have a certain chance of being resurrected from the astral realm. However, this kind of resurrection is not a complete resurrection, and it lacks the most critical priesthood of the gods. In this way, the divinity is unstable, the godhead is incomplete, and it is like dregs. Once high and mighty, but after resurrection he fell into such a state of desolation. How many gods can accept this? So the resurrected incomplete gods banded together for warmth and created the Heroic Spirits, an underground organization that must not be seen in the light. The existence of the Heroic Spirits Association has three purposes. The first is to provide faith to these incomplete gods and continue the foundation of their existence. The second is to develop power in secret and wait for an opportunity to overthrow a certain god and take the position themselves. The third is to sincerely find a new way to regain a high status and strong strength. A certain powerful earth god once made a conclusion about the Heroic Spirits Association. If it weren't for the fact that Purple Emblem Heavenly Venerable was not wandering in the astral realm, none of these scum of the gods would be able to return to the Dayin Realm to be resurrected. Therefore, the Heroic Spirit Society always troubles the lineage of the gods in heaven, and rarely troubles the lineage of the gods on earth. It’s not that we don’t find them, it’s just that there are very few! To the Golden-Feathered God, the Heroic Spirit Society is really just a group of rats. Even if he couldn't single-handedly destroy the Heroic Spirit Society that dared to cause trouble for him and refined his favored gods into divine puppets, it would not be difficult to find out the rats from the Heroic Spirit Society that had sneaked into the Golden Feather Domain and kill them one by one. The Golden Feather Domain is the home turf of the Golden Feather God. With the arrival of the will and consciousness of the Golden Feather God, the vast Golden Feather Domain, most of the people, things, and objects fell into the complete control of the Golden Feather God. Those who have joined the Heroic Spirit Society, those who have come into contact with the Heroic Spirit Society, whether they are humans, gods, priests, or anything else... All of it happened in an instant, suddenly burning like a torch. The painful wails echoed throughout thousands of cities in the Golden Feather Domain. Tao Tie, who had reduced his presence to the lowest level the moment the will of the Golden Feathered God descended, witnessed this scene and frowned slightly. Judging from this scene, the strength displayed by the Golden-Feathered God seems to be stronger than the former Lord of Dadongshan and the current Lord of Pingboshui. In Tao Tie's memory, only Her Royal Highness the Queen, who could send away the leader of the Wu Shi Demon Sect, Ululichi, with just one finger, had such strength. Before becoming the empress, the empress was already a person with great supernatural powers. After becoming the empress, she was blessed by the fortune of the Dayong Dynasty. There is no doubt that his strength ranks among the top ten in the entire Dayong world. Among the feather gods in the Pantheon, the Golden Feathered God only barely ranks in the top fifteen. From such a simple comparison, it seems that the strength of the Pantheon's gods alone is stronger than that of the Dayong Dynasty! This was exactly what made Tao Tie frown.
Because that's not true. Her Royal Highness the Queen attacked from a distance at that time, and the power was transmitted from the Dayong Realm to the void, and the power that could reach the destination was less than one-fifth of the power consumed on the way! Comparing the Golden-Feathered God with the Queen is an insult to the Queen. Tao Tie was very confused as to why he suddenly thought of the queen. For practitioners who have completed the realm of "refining the void" and are trying to "harmonize with the Tao", the emergence of every thought is not groundless. There must be some reason that made Tao Tie remember the existence of the queen at this moment. "What could it be?" Tao Tie talked to himself, and then he heard Zhuzhu's mumbling that sounded like talking in a sleep. "The little guy is a little impatient and eats everything. Maybe he has an upset stomach?" Hearing these words, Tao Tie woke up instantly. It turns out that thinking of the queen at this time was a sudden and clear warning. He did intend to find an opportunity to devour the divinity of Golden Feathered God! Traveling through thousands of cities in the Golden Feather Domain, he searches for the reasons why the Golden Feather God and his subordinate gods and subordinate gods are afraid of the earthly gods. His motive is to find the weakness of the Golden Feather God so that he can deliver a fatal blow and devour him! It's like swallowing up Qingshui Longjun and Jinyu Erliuqi! "Tsk! What a pity!" Tao Tie sighed and gave up the idea. At the same time, he also gave up the plan to activate the new spores held by the Golden Feather God. The Golden Feather God, who had burned to death all the Heroic Spirit Society rats in the Golden Feather Domain, suddenly shuddered and felt infinite fear in his heart! He just felt a sense of crisis that he was on the brink of life and death! It seems that if I am not careful, I will completely perish. "Oops! I fell into a trap!" Jin Yu Tian Shen's heart skipped a beat. "These rats from the Heroic Spirit Association are coming for me!" With this in mind, the Golden Feather God returned to the Golden Feather Temple immediately without waiting for the tens of thousands of torches in the Golden Feather Domain to burn out, and he was still in shock. He then informed his few allies of his plight, adding a warning. "Be careful of the Heroic Spirits Gathering!" (End of this chapter)
