"I am Hongmeng. I impart the Dao to all heavens. Praise my divine name; your name is not on the Reincarnation Tablet! Obey my Divine Dao, and you shall live forever, basking in the Divine Dao!"
The Soul Hall Saint Girl: "Shocking!!!"
The Soul Hall Saint Girl: "Is the newcomer really a god?"
The Dominator of The World Association: "The newcomer is quite arrogant, even more so than I, Xiong Ba! Reveal your power and origin, and let this leader see how strong this so-called god of yours is!"
The Descendant of the Great Yan Royal Family: "Leader Xiong, be careful with your words. Our chat group could very well have been created by Immortal Gods. Besides, since there are gods in Goddess Bi's world, it's not impossible for a god to join our chat group!"
The Dominator of The World Association: "Murong Fu, are you trying to cling to the coattails of this so-called 'god' again? You really spare no effort and miss no opportunity!"
The Huashan Sect Master: "Leader Xiong, Young Master Murong does make a valid point. Given the existence of a chat group that can connect the worlds of the heavens, why is it inconceivable for a god to join?"
Yue Buqun added his voice to the conversation. Given his cautious nature, he naturally wouldn't offend people like Xiong Ba! After all, speaking well of Hongmeng wasn't a loss. On the contrary, if Hongmeng were a god, even if he didn't gain favor by speaking up, he wouldn't garner any ill will either.
His thoughts were similar to Murong Fu's. Murong Fu was also harboring the thought that if Hongmeng were a god, he could make a great profit. Better to miss a kill than to let an opportunity pass. If Hongmeng truly were a god, even the smallest crumb of help could assist him in achieving his dream of restoring his nation. Therefore, that's why he had been eagerly trying to connect with the newcomer in the chat group and was the first to cozy up upon suspecting that Hongmeng might be a god. After all, if Hongmeng wasn't a god, there was no loss.
The Lord of Great Qin: "(Sneakily observing)"
The young Ying Zheng from the World of Heaven's Nine Songs couldn't help but interject, speaking for the first time. But everyone was so shaken and captivated by Hongmeng's words that they paid no mind to him.
The Dominator of The World Association: "Alright, newcomer, you claim to be a god? What proof do you have?"
The Soul Hall Saint Girl: "Divine Spirits are sacred and inviolable beings. Leader Xiong had better choose his words carefully!"
The Dominator of The World Association: "…"
Watching the chat group, Hongmeng smiled faintly. He wasn't surprised by everyone's disbelief. If people had believed him based on a single claim, he would have doubted their intelligence, wondering if they were foolish or just lacking in it. In response to this, he had already prepared a plan. Don't believe it, huh? No problem. Let me show you the mighty power of the Divine Spirits. When the time comes, you won't have a choice but to believe.
「The #10,000 Celestial Chat Group.」
The God of Hongmeng: "Today I impart to you Volume one of 'Meditation Method' and 'Sacrificial Method'."
The God of Hongmeng: "'Meditation Method': By chanting my divine name, you can receive the blessing of Divine Power."
The God of Hongmeng: "'Sacrificial Method': By offering sacrifices of all things, you can receive the grace of Divine Spirits."
The God of Hongmeng: "Praise my divine name and follow my Divine Dao. Immortality and eternal life will be within reach. Becoming Immortals and gods is not difficult. One day, you may ascend to the God's kingdom to exist forever with the heavens, alongside me. Then, you shall enjoy eternity!"
The God of Hongmeng has uploaded "Meditation Method".
The God of Hongmeng has uploaded "Sacrificial Method".
The "Meditation Method" and "Sacrificial Method" were from Hongmeng's past incarnation, taken directly and then slightly modified. In the Eternal Continent, where gods abound, these practices are commonplace and can be found everywhere. Each god's "Meditation Method" and "Sacrificial Method" are quite similar; this is no secret. The key lies in the Divine Soul imprint. The Divine Soul imprint distinguishes the many gods and enables believers to connect with that god without confusion.
The members of the chat group were speechless. They didn't know if the newcomer was being too arrogant or if he had gone mad. Immortality and becoming gods, all easy tasks? Even a god wouldn't dare to make such grand claims, would they?
Although they disbelieved in their hearts and scorned him inwardly, the members still swiftly took action.
The Descendant of the Great Yan Royal Family downloaded "Meditation Method" and "Sacrificial Method".
The Soul Hall Saint Girl downloaded "Meditation Method" and "Sacrificial Method".
The Lord of Great Qin downloaded...
The Huashan Sect Master downloaded...
The Dominator of The World Association downloaded...
Their mouths said no, but their actions were honest.
"As expected, no one can escape the True Fragrance Principle!" Hongmeng thought, seeing all five members download his "Meditation Method" and "Sacrificial Method" in less than two seconds, a hint of a faint smile in his eyes. The bait was scattered; could he worry about the fish not taking it? He believed that no one could resist the temptation of immortality and becoming a god!
「In the Douluo World.」
Within the Soul Hall, in a secret chamber, Bibi Dong was clad in a silver gauze dress that exposed two delicate and slender legs. They were straight and well-formed, with skin as white as snow, beautiful enough to challenge the frost itself. Her near-perfect face eclipsed everything around her. However, at this moment, her noble and exquisite face was marked by an undeniable expression of shock.
Anxiousness. Excitement. Trepidation. Fear.
With her moist lips slightly parted and her chest heaving, she took a deep breath and clicked to download Hongmeng's "Meditation Method" and "Sacrificial Method" from the chat group.
After downloading, two documents resembling literature appeared in her mind.
The "Sacrificial Method" detailed how to worship Divine Spirits and the precautions to be taken during the ritual. The first step in performing a sacrifice is to construct an altar. The next step is to prepare the Sacrifices. Altars have their ranks, and so do the Sacrifices. The more precious the Sacrifice, the more bountiful the blessing received from the gods. Once everything is ready, the faithful stand before the altar, earnestly chant the Divine Spirits' names, and offer their Sacrifice.
Her world also had gods, and the rituals of worship were more or less the same, nothing too complicated. What mattered was the "Meditation Method."
When she saw this volume of the "Meditation Method," it seemed to possess some kind of magical power. Sacred. Majestic. Noble. Indescribable in words. It invigorated the spirit and seemed to draw the soul into it.
The other party might indeed be a god. Thinking of this, Bibi Dong's breathing quickened, her chest rising and falling.
She took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement and trepidation in her heart, adjusted her mentality, and began to chant slowly:
"Who governs the rise and fall as Chaos is opened up?"
As her voice faded, a powerful and imposing aura washed over her. Ancient. Wild. Timeless. A surge of indescribable emotion swelled within her, her heart pulsating with it.
"Who governs the rise and fall as Chaos is opened up?"
It was as if the Divine Taoist Sound echoed in the depths of her soul—magnificently ancient, eternal, and weathered, resounding in her ears, chanting along with her, resonating with her voice.
Bibi Dong's soul shivered, her eyes shone brightly, her voice grew prouder, and her spirit more devout.
"Hongmeng is boundless, the origin of heaven and earth!"
"Hongmeng is limitless, the end of all things!"
The more Bibi Dong read, the more ineffable mysteries she sensed, the deeper she immersed herself, her mind becoming more active than it had ever been.
"Hongmeng is boundless, the final home of gods and demons!"
"Hongmeng is limitless, the cradle of Immortals and Buddhas!"
HUM!
As if a light of wisdom burst forth, the fire of life blazed furiously. All of her previous Cultivation confusions were effortlessly resolved. All of her once hazy memories became clear in an instant. She had a moment of enlightenment, as if awakening to profound truths. She was intoxicated with joy, as if she had found a priceless treasure.
God! This truly was a god! In that moment, Bibi Dong was utterly convinced.
"Hongmeng, the birthplace of the universe and the world!"
"Hongmeng, the natural creator of all life and beings!"
"Praise You, ancient and mighty God of Hongmeng!"
"You are the nurturer of the universe and the world!"
"You are the creator of all things!"
Her chanting voice grew louder, the devotion on her cheeks deeper.
"Your radiance lights up the earth."
"Your Divine Fire burns eternally."
"Praise You, the supreme God of Hongmeng."
Bibi Dong's voice was impassioned as she loudly recited the last sentence.
BOOM!
Instantly, her mind was struck as if by thunder. All things in heaven and earth disappeared. Around her was a murky gray expanse, as if she had arrived amidst the boundless Chaos. Between heaven and earth, there sat an immeasurable, indescribable great existence.
Sacred. Majestic. Its full figure unfathomable. Its true form inscrutable. It was as if it existed since ancient times, ancient and weathered, great and immortal. As if it was everything in the world, unceasing and eternal, forever the only one. No matter which direction one looked, their gaze would ultimately rest upon him, for it seemed he was the center of the universe. Indescribable was his greatness. He was the sun, the world, the endless stars, the boundless universe, everything... He was the one True God. The eternally unchanging, supreme True God. He was... The Tao! To see him was to see the Tao!
