“Ah, this … It really turns out the chat channel is based on the territory system, not the Lord system, I can’t believe I can still use it, it’s odd indeed,” Qin Muye commented.
“But there’s a bit of good news, although activation failed, it’s enough to prove that the birth of Divinity is related to faith, just a pity that in terms of public opinion, the Divine Church has very tight control.”
“Indeed, the indescribable pollution of mine is a bit too severe, the faith activation in the Abyss Demon Net sandbox failed…”
“It’s a shame this world doesn’t have the Alien Clan, only humans, otherwise there would be so many more possibilities, especially with the Elf God, I kind of miss him.”
“Let the Dark Hand arrange it, capture a couple more Divine ones.”
“The Abyss Missionary’s transformation plan can be scheduled now, since we’re doing free riding, a bit of blasphemy doesn’t make much difference,” Qin Muye squinted his eyes.
“Got the faith module figured out, but further research is needed on the other modules, being part of the so-called Divine system after all.”
“I’ve also got a clear idea of the source of the Power of Faith, it really feels a bit like a meme.”
“Should be a probe, so should I reply?”
“If the entire system study is successful, the result might be even better,” Qin Muye squinted his eyes, pondering whether to bring another unfortunate Divinity into the lab, after all, you can’t have just one sample.”
“But what does it mean that these Divine Beings are creating Divine Systems inside the Divine Country? It looks like they are preparing for war, it can’t be that there’s a war of gods, can it?”
[***: No need, thank you. If you have any needs, just say it, I’ll help as much as I can, after all, we’re on the same server, we should support each other.]
[Zijing Xian: May I ask what the senior is busy with? Did you settle here successfully? If you need anything, just say it, I’ll go through fire and water without hesitation if I can help.]
However, this contract can also be annulled, which is through abandoning the faith.
Of course, being able to afford a Divine System is naturally because they have enough Power of Faith to transform into Divine Power, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to support such enormous expenses.
Of course, no one expected Qin Muye to pull such a sly move, using a method similar to corruption to create followers, and even having his followers bring their own provisions for propagation.
The other party also responded immediately, but it was all flattery, looking as if they were trying to find out where Qin Muye’s territory was located.
For the gods, the souls of the followers are their wealth.
On the other hand, Divine beings have their hands tied in this regard because they can’t tear up this contract.
According to his in-depth research, Qin Muye didn’t get wrong about the nature of the Power of Faith, but there was more to it, such as soul ownership rights.
Well, even the Holy Light God is probably in jeopardy, given the drastic disparity in strength.
Soon, Qin Muye came up with a very interesting idea about this unfair contract concerning soul ownership rights.
The Elf God did give him a lot of help, it’s a pity that he wasn’t strong enough back then, otherwise, he would have moved the Divine Country and wouldn’t have to worry about dying.
It seems like a good thing, but it gave Qin Muye some ideas.
Unfortunately, Qin Muye doesn’t have that kind of talent, but what he needs to do doesn’t require finding loopholes, just a slight tweak to his Abyss Missionaries under him will do to cheat the contract in the Power of Faith concerning soul ownership rights.
As of now, there’s no conflict of interest between the two parties, Qin Muye also didn’t intend to contact the other, being a Lord, although a bit low in rank, it doesn’t mean weak. He was able to crash the server when he was rank 4; one should not underestimate anyone.
A contract is not perfect, as long as there’s enough capability, loopholes can always be found.
Qin Muye sent out such a string of text, as for truthfulness, except it’s not necessary to be true, the rest were all superficial.
Qin Muye looked at the data in his hand, and there had indeed been some friction before, but the problem was that the Divine was too weak, so weak that it couldn’t even remove the contamination Qin Muye had left in the Abyss Demon Net sandbox.
Qin Muye had seen Divine Punishment, positioned and struck directly through the faith module—a service akin to providing a burial all in one go.
It was quite normal for Qin Muye to know this because Spirit Monster spies had already infiltrated among those Divines in the Divine Country.
Qin Muye was not very good at dealing with these matters, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t see them, so he naturally responded vaguely and casually dealt with them.
Qin Muye also suspected that it was precisely because there was no external pressure that the situation where Divines ruled the Main Material Plane had arisen today.
Qin Muye had received quite a bit, not from the Spirit Monsters but from human followers, and he owned the soul rights to that group of Abyss Missionaries.
Population was restricted in movement, as all people belonged to the Nobles as assets, and speech was also controlled. Only the Church had the right to publish or report, so even if they succeeded once or twice, it would be quickly extinguished, and even the Divines would personally intervene.
If it were Rank 5 natives, Qin Muye would not pay them any mind, only ordering Spirit Monsters under his command to deal with them. However, with Lords, he had to be more cautious.
After some contemplation, he decided to reply anyway, at least to give a perfunctory response, and maybe he could even extract something from the other party.

So, if Qin Muye were to really spread opinions to suppress others, it would be a thankless task because the Divines could really handle it precisely, and the opinions could not spread at all.
He did not fancy the faith of these followers, so he took from the people and used it for the people, having his own source of faith, which was safer using Spirit Monsters than human followers.
The location of the Endless Abyss must not be exposed. After all, the other party was in the Main Material Plane, and he was in the Star Realm, completely different regions, easily leading the other side to imagine things. What if they inferred something they shouldn’t and then went to seek the Holy Light God? That would mean Qin Muye had to personally visit them and drain their blood?
Such as the Holy Light God, who was not a solitary Divine. Precisely speaking, it should be called the Divine System of Holy Light, which included the Holy Light God, God of Fertility, God of Power, and other Divines who were actually part of a complete Divine System with an extremely complete system, unlike the Main Material Plane.
You should know that everyone worships Divines, so if anyone slanders Divines or wavers in faith, the Divine Country would detect it immediately. Afterward, through the exchange of information, a response would be produced, namely Divine Punishment.
One should note that relations among Divines were very harmonious. There were no conflicts over faith that led to life-and-death struggles, instead, they divided the “cake” in a manner similar to sharing.
This was precisely why the faith module played out completely. Essentially, it was the believers who, unknowingly, were forced to sign an inequitable contract.
Because it was of no use, firstly, the world was really too backward, too backward for opinions to be effectively spread.
The Divines who actually held real power were not like the God of Etiquette, who was useless. They could infuse Divine Power into the souls of the believers for transformation, making them their Divine Servants, subordinate gods, and various types of divine minions.
After receiving this data, the first thing Qin Muye thought of was naturally to undermine the Divines through public opinion, but this idea remained merely a thought.
In his eyes, the severity of blasphemy wasn’t even as significant as freeloading.
Once fully formed, the soul rights of the believers belonged to the Divines. This was more akin to a Rule Level contract, and because of this, they would be taken to the Divine Country after death.
While this world also had Divines, the Elf God could no longer be found, causing Qin Muye to sigh at the impermanence of the world.
This did not match his interests at all.
These matters would never circulate among the middle and lower tiers; only high-ranking figures in the Divine Church like the Pope and other similar bigwigs knew about them, even manufactured gods like the God of Etiquette were unaware of this technology, clearly ostracized from the circle.
Did you really think he was so kind-hearted? It was nothing more than establishing an identity for himself, a helpful old good person everyone likes. Qin Muye liked good people too. The more good people there were, the more comfortable it was for someone like him, a classic silver coin-type villain.
While contemplating, Qin Muye suddenly noticed some activity in the chat channel.
However, after venting, he pondered one thing, why did this kid seek him out?
Turning his head, Qin Muye began to delve into the meanings of the Divines.
After all, the Main Material Plane had been forged into an impregnable pasture, and trying to carve out interests from it was likely not a simple matter.
