"The Temple of Immortality is dedicated to high and mighty gods. Have they ever witnessed your struggles under the claws of wild beasts? Have they ever heard your cries for salvation?"
A low commotion arose in the crowd. Several soldiers who had been seriously injured and on the verge of death exchanged glances, their eyes flashing with complex emotions.
Several burly men who had served as guards in the city lord's mansion were speechless, their Adam's apples bobbing as they thought of the temple messengers they had witnessed alongside the city lord.
Those messengers were indeed far less awe-inspiring than the man before them.
The doctrines of the Immortal Temple have long been deeply ingrained in people's hearts. Even though the temple's messengers never appear in times of crisis, the people of the Blood Continent are still accustomed to praying to the temple when they are afraid.
“I know about the Temple of Immortality that you worship.”
"But they see you as ants, this continent as pasture. Aside from distributing Blood Crystals to the strongest among you, they have never truly protected you. And my Yellow Heaven Divine Sect,"
Lin Hao paused, "What you represent is your own power, and all the souls of the Blood Luo Continent who refuse to submit. When you unite, when you are willing to fight for each other, you are the embodiment of Huang Tian."
Exclamations of surprise rose and fell from the crowd.
The boy who had just regained his arm suddenly stepped forward, raising his new arm: "He saved us, gave me a new arm, but what about the temple? Where was the temple when our city's main force died in battle?"
The boy's words were like a fire, igniting the resentment in everyone's hearts.
They once placed their hopes on the Temple of Immortality, believing that as long as they prayed sincerely, they would receive divine protection.
But now, Lin Hao has saved them. So what if they are heretics!
If it weren't for Lin Hao, they would have already become the prey of the wild beasts!
"Back then, my father knelt before the temple for three days and three nights, begging them to save me after my leg was bitten off by a wild beast..."
An old man, touching his empty trouser leg, suddenly kowtowed heavily to Lin Hao.
Lin Hao seized the opportunity and, with a wave of his hand, regenerated the old man's severed limbs.
The old man paused for two seconds, then suddenly threw his wooden stick into the rubble and stomped his feet on the broken bricks like a child: "It's true! It's not an illusion, my leg is healed! You are the real god!"
"The teachings of Huangtian are very simple."
"Every believer in the Yellow Heaven, united together, will surely illuminate the entire Blood Luo Continent!"
He gave a gentle smile. "And I am merely your guide."
Lin Hao walked towards one of the girls whose appearance, figure, and temperament best matched his aesthetic, gently took her hand, and activated Dimensional Wave Chasing: "From today onwards, you will become Huang Tian's messenger. Use your power to help more people and let them know that Huang Tian has never abandoned any soul willing to fight."
The girl's eyes were filled with unconcealed embarrassment and shock.
However, she quickly forgot about her embarrassment and anger, and her mind was filled with 'divine magic' used to save people, as well as many other complex insights that she did not understand at all.
"Go, carry on my will, and save the people of Huangtian."
Lin Hao encouraged him softly.
Like Lin Hao, the girl released the primal power containing the law of water to heal the injured one by one.
The onlookers were even more shocked.
"What's your name?"
Lin Hao asked.
"My name is Luo Li."
The girl staggered and knelt on one knee. "So water can be used not only to clean the temple steps! It can also save lives and kill enemies!"
"I am willing to follow you, sir!"
"I do too!"
As the first star lit up the sky of the Blood Luo world, a cacophony of resolute oaths echoed across the ruins of the territory's main city.
Lin Hao stood atop the collapsed city wall, watching the crowd below gradually kneeling down.
Beside her were countless other believers, led by Luo Li, whose gazes gradually hardened.
Now, the first step in establishing faith has been taken.
As dusk deepened, Lin Hao separated a portion of his consciousness and immersed himself in the simulator space, a faint smile playing on his lips.
Indeed, this is the true way to experience the Blood Continent; fighting and killing are too extreme.
Chapter 95 A New Talent in Abstraction!
The last simulated lottery gave me a skill that looked incredibly powerful just from the description—
【Echoes of Prayer - True Manifestation】: When the accumulated “Power of Prayer” (formed by the strong longing, dependence, trust and all love-related energies that the bonded object has for you) in the bond space reaches a critical value, it can tear through space and time and project onto any plane where the bonded object is located.
Note: The projection will amplify all abilities by a hundredfold based on the original body's strength. The duration is also affected by the remaining "Power of Prayer". It can only be activated once per day and is currently unavailable.
Unfortunately, it's unusable.
Lin Hao was dumbfounded when he first drew this talent.
A progress bar was added to the Bond Space, at which time the activation of this skill seemed far off.
With nine companions currently in my bond space, the time it takes to activate the skill seems endless compared to the critical value of "prayer power" required.
I'm like a bulldozer, adding new cases every day, I don't know when I'll ever finish...
Although I don't know why the art style of the Perfect Love Simulator suddenly changed, there must be a reason why they gave us this thing.
So Lin Hao put his little brain to work.
Could it be that "bond partner" is not the same as "romantic partner" in the narrow sense?
This is the correct way to use an emulator?!
I misunderstood you before, emulator!
It turns out that romantic love is a minor path, while universal love is the great path!
When countless people with whom you have a bond feel the power of prayer, thinking "You are the light, you are the electricity, you are the only myth," is that the "power of prayer"?
How do we build new bonds?
Lovers are too slow; believers and fans seem worth a try.
Fan Lin Hao isn't interested in trying it out yet, but would he like to try developing the Path of Faith in the Blood Continent?
God loves the world, and the world loves God; this is perhaps a different kind of "love."
Isn't God's love for humanity essentially a broad and universal love that transcends material things, unconditionally cares for those in need, responds to prayers, and desires for others to become better?
People love God because they yearn for, trust in, and rely on this great power.
This approach... isn't it similar to the idea of "lovers supporting each other, making sacrifices for each other, and hoping that the other person will become better"?
So it makes perfect sense that the dating simulator can extract this talent!
It simply elevates the emotional depth and energetic expression of "love" to a more romantic level.
Who says love can't save the world?
Just try and you will find out.
Through Luo Li's introduction, Lin Hao obtained specific information about the territory.
Blood Ember Territory and its lord, Luo Wuyai, are quite unconventional in this chaotic Blood Luo world.
Her deceased lord father had fought his way up against wild beasts and eventually gained the recognition of the Immortal Temple, which bestowed upon him the Blood Crystal.
Perhaps because of the threat of wild beasts, the people in this territory are more united, and there are fewer bandits.
With Luo Li's help, the 'Yellow Heaven Cult' quickly swept across the entire Blood Ash Territory.
A huge statue of Lin Hao was also erected in Blood Ash City.
……
Sure enough, three months later.
The nascent Holy Maidens Group of the 'Yellow Heaven Divine Cult' was formed by Luo Li and several other girls personally selected by Lin Hao.
Lin Hao was much more relaxed. He rarely took action himself. The 'Yellow Heaven Divine Sect' had already swept across the three adjacent lord borders like a tide—Iron Sand Territory, Gray Mist Territory, and Shattered Rock Territory.
On the city lords' mansions of these territories, dark gold battle patterns representing the Yellow Heaven began to replace the emblem of the Immortal Temple.
The greatest benefit for him is that by using the laws of water to heal, rescue, and preach, he gains a considerable amount of "power of prayer"!
The "Prayer Echoes, True Manifestation of the Dharma" event has already been activated.
Sure enough, many smaller phantoms appeared in the Bond Space.
The so-called "eavesdropping" function is simply an alternative form of listening to prayers!
The Blood World gave him such a huge surprise!
……
Frost Moon World City.
"Reporting to the city lord, those heretic messengers can heal severed limbs with ease!"
A gray-robed priest's voice trembled, "They said... they said the Blood Crystal of the Immortal Temple was forged with the blood and bones of their people!"
The World City Lord, Ye Lan, sat high above, wearing a deep blue battle armor. His silver hair was like frost, with a few strands of hair falling naturally at his temples. His eyes were like icy abysses, as if they contained glaciers that had never melted for thousands of years.
Her lips are naturally slightly pursed, giving her an air of aloofness; her skin is as white as snow, and she has an enviable figure.
Her fingertips traced the floating ice crystal mirror, watching the 'Yellow Heaven Saintess' in the mirror healing the many wounded.
And the source of this 'Yellow Peril': the scene where Lin Hao, known as the 'Yellow Heaven God,' reconstructs the organs of a dying child.
As the city lord of 'Frostmoon World City', her world-class aura could freeze a thousand miles of sea, but at this moment she was disturbed by the dark golden figure in the mirror.
Despite possessing only the aura of the Cloud Realm, she could wield the Law of Water with even greater finesse than she, a veteran Realm Lord specializing in the Ice Realm—the wounds she healed could even purify the toxins of wild beasts unique to the Blood Luo Continent.
The other party should have become her honored guest because of his powerful healing abilities, but unfortunately he turned out to be a daring and reckless madman.
"I want to go and meet this 'Huangtian Divine Lord' in person."
……
On the eternal ice plains of Iron Sand Territory, nineteen ice shards, like towering pillars, pierced through the leaden clouds, trapping Luo Li and the other five saintesses who were on patrol in the center.
The world master 'Night Tide's' silver hair fluttered in the cold wind, and the ice crystals below were slowly devouring the healing light of the saintesses.
"Tell me, where is that false god, the Yellow Heaven God Lord, hiding?"
