Chapter 9: The Red Moon Disaster! Chapter 21: Yanhuang Sect!
Yanhuang Star.
It was not originally called Yanhuang Star.
But since Chu Zhou decided to use it as the headquarters of the "Yanhuang Sect", its name became "Yanhuang Star".
As for its original name, it is no longer important.
The volume of Yanhuang Star is about one hundred times that of the Earth, and its population is roughly 10 billion.
Over the past ten years, solemn and sacred temples have sprung up like mushrooms after rain on the Yanhuang Star.
And on the Yanhuang Star, in the most central position, stands the most majestic temple.
This is the main hall of the Yanhuang Sect.
In the center of the square of this main hall stands a dark gold statue that is 10,000 meters high.
This statue looks 90% similar to Chu Zhou.
But more majestic and indifferent.
As if he were an ancient god that towered over all living beings.
This day.
On the Yanhuang star, hundreds of billions of humans were prostrating themselves before majestic temples.
Among them, the humans crawling on the square of the main hall were as numerous as the ocean, with no end in sight.
The humans in the square include those who look like humans on Earth, some with three eyes, some with four arms, some with blue skin, some with two heads, and so on... Their origins are quite complicated.
Originally, Yanhuang Star was a resource planet controlled by the Talon family.
The tens of billions of humans on Yanhuang Star , whether they are native to Yanhuang Star or humans of various races purchased by the Talon Family, are all miners of the Talon Family.
It was not until this planet belonged to Chu Zhou that Chu Zhou ordered the elimination of the slave status of these hundreds of millions of miners.
Of course, the prerequisite is that these people must join the "Yanhuang Sect" and believe in him.
For the hundreds of millions of miners who were slaves, this was not something they had to consider at all. They all chose to join the "Yanhuang Sect" and become believers of the "Lord of Yanhuang".
In fact, in the hearts of these slaves, Chu Zhou, who freed them from their slave status, was their savior, and they were happy to believe in Chu Zhou, the "Lord of Yanhuang."
In addition to the countless believers prostrating themselves on the square of the main hall, there were also a large number of guests surrounding the square.
These guests included the emperor of the Galactic Empire and the patriarchs of many large families in the Galactic Empire.
There are also representatives of the first-class forces in the Blood Peak Star Domain, such as 'Cangming Mountain', 'Black Dragon Castle', 'Blood Thorn Alliance', 'Kab Family', 'Golden Flame Family', 'Blood Fang Family', etc.
There are also many representatives of other forces, big and small.
These people came to witness and congratulate after learning that Chu Zhou, the owner of Panlong Villa, was going to establish the "Yanhuang Sect".
At this moment, Monica, wearing a crown, holding a scepter in her hand, and wearing a sacred and solemn robe, stepped onto the altar in the main hall square.
She ascended the altar as the supreme leader of the Yanhuang Sect.
As for Chu Zhou, he is naturally the god worshipped by the Yanhuang Sect, the 'Lord of Yanhuang'.
At this moment, Monica's virtual projection appeared in front of all the temples on Yanhuang Star.
In fact, it’s not just Yanhuang Star.
In the entire Milky Way, on all life-bearing planets except Earth, as well as in the more than 800 life-bearing planets outside the Milky Way, Monica's virtual projection appeared in front of every temple.
More than 90 trillion believers were watching Monica at the same time.
"I declare that the 'Yanhuang Sect' is established!"
"My God is the Lord of Yan and Huang. Believe in my God and you will have eternal life!"
Under the gaze of more than 90 trillion believers, Monica, the supreme leader of the Yanhuang Sect, suddenly raised his scepter and shouted loudly with a pious and sincere look.
Her voice rang in the ears of 90 trillion believers.
The next moment, Monica disappeared.
Instead, there was a dark golden figure as tall as a mountain.
The dark golden figure seemed to be in a mysterious kingdom of God, sitting cross-legged on a huge throne, with a mysterious green vine wrapped around one of its arms, and stars surrounding its head.
"Bow down to my God!"
The moment they saw the towering dark golden figure, more than 90 trillion believers prostrated themselves.
A tsunami-like sound resounded among the living planets.
"I vaguely understand why Chu Zhou wants to establish the 'Yanhuang Sect'. Although, establishing the 'Yanhuang Sect' seems to have the same effect as establishing a normal force, both are for the purpose of strengthening the forces under his command and obtaining more cultivation resources."
"But... establishing a normal power is not as satisfying as being a god believed in and worshipped by countless people."
“I’m afraid that even the Holy Lords of the two holy lands, the Blood Peak Holy Land and the Mirror Moon Lake Holy Land, cannot compare to this sense of accomplishment!”
The Emperor of the Galactic Empire said this with some envy.
Although, as the emperor of the Galactic Empire, the number of humans he ruled was at least 300 trillion, far exceeding the number of believers of the Yanhuang Sect.
On the surface, he should have a stronger sense of accomplishment.
But the fact is...
However, he understood very well that even though the Galactic Empire had more than 300 trillion citizens, the vast majority of them only obeyed the laws set by the Galactic Empire.
Most people only have awe towards this emperor.
As for worship and faith, I can't say that at all.
This sense of accomplishment is certainly not as good as that of a god believed in and worshipped by countless believers.
"Haha, it's really cool to be a god believed in by countless people! However, being a god is not that easy... There is a widely circulated saying in the universe that faith is poisonous. I really don't know why Chu Zhou is so bold as to choose to become a god."
A tall and thin man with blood-red hair spoke with a half-smile.
"Yes! Faith is poisonous... The power of faith mixed with countless spiritual distractions can cause serious damage to the soul. Long-term exposure to the power of faith can even make one lose oneself..."
Another silver-skinned figure said.
"Yes! If faith wasn't poisonous... the entire universe would have been filled with gods."
An old man from the first-rate force 'Cangming Mountain' also spoke with a serious expression.
Is faith toxic?
The Emperor of the Galactic Empire and many other representatives of second- and third-rate forces were all shocked when they heard these four words.
Many of them have never been exposed to religious civilization and do not know much about it. This is the first time they know that faith is poisonous.
Suddenly, many of them showed a look of sudden enlightenment on their faces.
I vaguely understood why the number of religious civilizations in the universe is far less than that of other civilizations.
Perhaps the main reason is that faith is toxic.
In Chu Zhou's world.
The moment more than 90 trillion believers knelt down and worshiped him, he immediately felt a trace of the power of faith spreading towards him along the invisible threads.
And after this trace of power of faith entered his soul space, it was immediately converted into attribute points through the attribute panel.
"Attribute point +1!"
"Attribute points +3!"
"Attribute points +2!"
…
Countless reminders sounded in Chu Zhou's ears.
But to Chu Zhou, the sound was so beautiful.
"My world is too far away from those planets. Only a small amount of the power of faith can be transmitted to them... Most of the power of faith is collected by the towers of faith placed at the bottom of each temple."
"When the power of faith collected by those towers of faith reaches its capacity, it will be time for me to reap the rewards."
Chu Zhou muttered to himself, with a hint of joy in his eyes.
To be honest, the power of faith that the Yanhuang Sect provides him with now is not that much.
Or say.
The 'Yanhuang Sect' had just been established.
Those believers were not actually very devout to him.
The power of faith contributed is naturally less.
But Chu Zhou was very satisfied.
Because this is a stable and sustainable income channel.
Moreover, as the believers become more and more devout, the income from this channel will surely increase.
Yanhuang Star.
After announcing the official establishment of the Yanhuang Sect, Monica, the supreme leader of the Yanhuang Sect, was about to announce the end of the founding ceremony.
But at this moment...
A sudden change occurred!
Five figures with single horns on their heads suddenly descended over the main hall of the Yanhuang Sect.
Five terrifying auras of pressure emanated from them, covering the entire Yanhuang Star.
At this moment, the entire Yanhuang Star was in turmoil and the celestial phenomena changed dramatically.
The hundreds of millions of believers of Yanhuang Star, as well as all the living beings of Yanhuang Star, found it difficult to even breathe under the heavy pressure as heavy as a mountain.
One by one they almost suffocated.
“This…what’s going on?”
Many believers were worried and anxious.
Especially the believers in the main hall square, their faces changed drastically when they saw the five terrifying figures floating in the air.
Although the believers from other planets could not feel the terrifying pressure as heavy as a mountain, they also saw the five figures with single horns on their heads through the virtual screen.
Seeing these five figures, believers from many planets realized that the situation was not good. It seemed that a powerful enemy came to sabotage them on the day of their founding ceremony.
"Hiss... This is a strong man from the Ryan family!"
Among the many distinguished guests surrounding the main hall square, some looked at the purple horns on the heads of the five figures and immediately recognized that these five figures were from the Ryan family, one of the eighteen families.
"Not only are they strong men from the Ryan family... they are also five world masters!"
Someone else said in shock.
"This...what on earth is going on? Why would the five world masters of the Ryan family descend on the Yanhuang Sect at this moment?"
"Could it be that there is an unknown conflict between the Ryan Family and Panlong Villa, and these five giants of the Ryan Family deliberately came here to cause trouble at this time?"
Upon learning that the five giants in the sky were from the Ryan family, many distinguished guests changed color.
Many distinguished guests even flew away from the square and away from the main hall of the Yanhuang Sect, as if to distance themselves from the Yanhuang Sect, Panlong Villa, and Chu Zhou.
"Alas, Chu Zhou is finished. Today, he announced the establishment of the 'Yanhuang Sect' and was worshipped by more than 90 trillion believers. This should have been his glorious day... But the five Ryan family giants came with malicious intentions, and today may become his death anniversary."
An elder from 'Cangming Mountain' said with emotion on his face.
"The higher you stand, the harder you fall!"
"Yes! Not everyone can be a god!"
"Chu Zhou is too arrogant... He has to offend the Ryan family because he can do anything else. The Ryan family is one of the eighteen families in our Blood Star Domain. They have stood at the top of the pyramid of the Blood Peak Star Domain for more than hundreds of millions of years. Can he afford to offend them?"
Some distinguished guests who were dissatisfied with Chu Zhou's claim to be a god began to add insult to injury.
Unlike those distinguished guests who were panicked or shocked, Monica, the supreme leader of the Yanhuang Sect, looked very calm when facing the five world masters of the Ryan family.
There wasn't even a ripple on his face.
It seemed as if these five giants of the Ryan family were just weeds on the roadside, not worthy of any attention at all.
In fact.
Monica not only didn't take it seriously, she even sneered in her heart.
As Chu Zhou's right-hand man, she knew too well how terrifying her master Chu Zhou was.
Ten years ago, many superpowers such as the Blood Peak Holy Land and the Crimson Moon Cult had to tolerate Chu Zhou, a "corpse collector", who kept appearing on their battlefields to collect corpses.
During the past ten years, Monica, who often interacted with Chu Zhou, clearly felt that the strength of her master Chu Zhou was still increasing rapidly and becoming more and more terrifying.
Even after she successfully became the Realm Master, she still didn't have the courage to attack Chu Zhou.
These five people in front of me actually dared to come and make trouble on the master's 'big day'.
This is just like a birthday star hanging himself because he thinks his life is too long.
"Haha, the Yanhuang Sect wants to be established? Chu Zhou also wants to be called a god? Have you asked our Ryan family?"
"Humph, does Chu Zhou really think that what he has done is perfect? He killed the core figures of our Ryan family, but instead of hiding in the stinky ditch like a rat, he dared to blatantly develop Panlong Villa and establish the Yanhuang Sect... Did he underestimate our Ryan family? Or does he not even know how to write the word death?"
"Chu Zhou? He's just a clown. As early as when he touched our Ryan family, his fate was already determined - that is death! However, our Ryan family was busy dealing with the Red Moon Divine Cult before, so we didn't bother to pay attention to him. But he dared to establish the Yanhuang Cult in such a high-profile manner, so we are here to send him off today!"
…
The five Ryan family giants spoke one by one, sneering and full of murderous intent.
All the distinguished guests were frightened by the murderous intent of the five Ryan family giants.
Everyone was sweating profusely.
However, Monica remained expressionless and calm.
"You must be the supreme leader of the Yanhuang Sect! Before I kill Chu Zhou, I will collect some interest from you."
A Ryan family tycoon smiled coldly and suddenly attacked Monica.
"boom!!!"
In an instant, an extremely huge thunder hand, carrying endless destructive power, reached down and grabbed Monica.
All the believers and distinguished guests in the main hall square looked at the giant thunder hand that seemed to be destroying the world, and their faces turned pale as paper.
It's so scary.
but.
Before the terrifying giant thunder hand could catch Monica, the Ryan family giant who attacked suddenly screamed in fear.
"ah--"
A giant dark gold hand came out from nowhere and instantly exploded the Ryan family giant into a bloody rain.
