Chapter 786 How can a believer become a god?
The benefits offered by the Pantheon of Salvation shook these prodigies to their core, prompting a thought to arise in their minds.
Is this really a church?
This is clearly a club specifically designed to provide welfare for the poorest of the poor!
In this spirit world filled with injustice and oppression, the Society of Redemption is like an unexpectedly appearing star, rekindling hope for these lost and desperate prodigies.
With church organizations like these, why would they bother attending those other aloof and indifferent churches?
For these prodigies who emerged from the ordinary world and suffered oppression from the rules of the spirit world, although they did not wish to believe in a true god, faith was fundamental in the spirit world.
Those without faith will be persecuted and killed by the churches of the gods.
Since one must offer their faith regardless, who doesn't believe?
Instead of worshipping those spiritual gods who are indifferent to the suffering of the lower classes, who only demand faith but never give anything in return, it's better to worship a god who can genuinely improve your life and guide you to become a better person.
This is simply the most normal and obvious choice.
Compared to the other two, what kind of trash are the gods of the spirit world?
They possess boundless faith and enjoy the offerings of countless believers, yet they disregard the lives and deaths of the lower classes, allowing class stratification and injustice to run rampant.
[A person who only uses cold rules to bind believers and oppresses them with harsh doctrines, and who risks divine punishment for the slightest mistake, is utterly unworthy of being called a god.]
[And every true God in the Society of Redemption is willing to listen to the voices of believers and give them real help.]
From resources for spiritual practice to guidance on attaining higher realms, from protection in dire straits to planning for the future, everything is done to the extreme. Only a god like this is worthy of believers' wholehearted devotion and unwavering faith.
[In August of the Extraordinary Era 35621, the first group of ordinary world prodigies who broke through the world's barriers and stepped into the vast universe have now all broken through to new heights.]
With the full support of the Redemption Pantheon, they have now all entered the realm of Rule Demigods, and many of them even stand at the pinnacle of Rule Demigods, only one step away from touching the threshold of Rule True Gods.
They are no longer the naive prodigies who first entered the universe, bewildered and clueless, unable to even grasp the rules of the Spirit Realm. Instead, they possess formidable combat power capable of shaking a territory, and have earned their place in the universe.
Yet this group of promising and powerful individuals now faces a difficult choice that could tear their souls apart and torment their minds.
[A dilemma with no standard answer, where every choice is painful.]
Over the years, they have grown under the protection of the Pantheon of Redemption. Every breakthrough in their cultivation has been inseparable from the blessings of their faith in the true God, and every escape from dire straits has been inseparable from the protection of their faith in the true God. They have long regarded their faith in the true God as the only light in their lives.
God is the supreme being!
Their hearts were filled with utmost piety and fervor; they were willing to give everything for their beliefs, even their souls and lives, without the slightest hesitation.
At the same time, the pursuit of power, eternity, and a higher realm of transcendence is an innate instinct etched deep within the soul of every extraordinary being.
From the moment they embarked on the path of cultivation, they have been constantly breaking through their limits and climbing towards higher realms. From ordinary extraordinary beings to demigods, and now to rule-based demigods, they have overcome countless obstacles, all for the sake of one day achieving true godhood, escaping the cycle of reincarnation, and gaining eternal life.
[Therefore, they will take control of their own rules, no longer subject to oppression from any person or force, and truly control their own destiny.]
But the ironclad rules of cultivation in this world are always incredibly cruel.
How can a believer become a god?
Once they choose to relinquish their deepest obsessions, pursue their own path to true godhood, refine their own divine power, and build their own divine kingdom, they will inevitably shake the very foundation of their faith.
This will inevitably cause irreparable blasphemy against the true God to whom they have devoted themselves with all their might.
In the spiritual church, especially for those who believe in the true God, if a believer tries to break free from the constraints of faith and achieve their own divine status, it is the greatest betrayal of the Lord God.
[It is the most unforgivable sin of blasphemy in the world. At best, one will be stripped of all power and reduced to their original form; at worst, one's soul and spirit will be annihilated, and one will never be reincarnated.]
This ironclad rule, like a towering mountain, weighs heavily on the hearts of all believers.
This plunged those believers who had already achieved the status of demigods, especially those standing at the pinnacle of demigodhood, into endless pain and torment, leaving them no peace day or night.
On one hand, there is a faith etched into their souls, one they are willing to sacrifice their lives to protect; on the other hand, there is a power and eternity that they are born with and pursue throughout their lives. Both are things they cannot relinquish or give up.
No matter which side you choose, it will cause you excruciating pain.
They didn't know how to face this unsolvable problem, or what choice to make.
On one side is the true God I've sworn to follow to the death; on the other is the path I've pursued for half my life. Taking a step forward would be blasphemy against my faith and betrayal of my original intentions.
[Take one step back, and you'll be stuck here, forever trapped in the realm of a demigod of rules, never to touch the threshold of a true god again, betraying all your years of cultivation and effort.]
[For countless days and nights, they tossed and turned in their training grounds, their souls tormented, their pain and confusion deepening.]
Sometimes, extreme thoughts even flash through their minds.
[It would be better to end it all now, to prove one's innocence with death. This way, one will neither desecrate one's faith nor face this dilemma again, and it will all be over.]
But they knew in their hearts that the core doctrine of the Pantheon of Redemption had always been the supreme right to life.
Every living being's life is precious, and no external force, dogma, or predicament can interfere with or deprive a living being of its life.
Suicide is irresponsible towards one's own life and violates the core tenets of the church. This is a path they cannot take.
Just when everyone was lost and couldn't find a way out, a breakthrough appeared.
[A top-tier believer, who had long since fully comprehended the direction of his own rules, whose understanding of the rules had reached perfection, and who was only one final step away from becoming a true god of the rules, finally could no longer endure the relentless torment day and night, and made a decision that no one dared to attempt.] (End of Chapter)
