[052] Beauty Vine
The original Shinto can almost be described as wild growth.
At that time, the gods had very low standards for the choice of believers. As long as they were willing to give their faith, they would be considered believers.
But later facts proved time and time again that such believers were not reliable and might even lead to the fall of gods. So Shinto practitioners gradually absorbed the lessons and gradually summarized the plan for cultivating believers.
The first option is a completely brainwashing type. This kind of believer can provide very weak faith power and not flexible enough. The only thing is that he is particularly loyal to the gods he believes in.
The second solution is to cultivate the type from the beginning. This kind of believer has been exposed to information about gods since childhood and lives in an environment where everyone believes in gods, so he will naturally believe in this god.
But there is also a disadvantage, that is, distance produces beauty, but if the distance is closer in the future, the other party may find that the gods are different from what they imagine, thus creating a strange mind.
The third option is the priest training type. Simply put, it is to personally cultivate believers, both gods and like fathers. The loyalty of children cultivated in this way is the most reliable. The only problem is that they are prone to affection for believers, and even in the end they are really raised as sons.
The fourth plan is the sub-branch cultivation type. This plan is often mixed with the previous plans to leave your own descendants among believers, and even all believers are their own descendants.
The fifth solution is to create a racial type. Some great gods who have achieved success in other cultivation systems do not directly use the original race after choosing to practice the Shinto, but create a new race, and directly engrave this point of believing in themselves into the race's genes.
The advantage of doing this is that there is no possibility of betrayal of the entire race, and the disadvantage is that race is a race created by man-made, with its potential often having limits, and it is almost impossible to break the limit. Therefore, it is often difficult for such races to have a chance to improve when they reach the limit.
At present, Shinto and cultivating believers choose two or three in four options.
Zhang Sen had long considered how to cultivate believers.
He intends to choose the first and third as the basis of believers, and use the fifth as the auxiliary.
But he is not in a hurry now, because he must carefully consider his divine nature direction next. The so-called greed and chew it hard to make it hard. The more divine nature the better the more priests the better.
And it is best to avoid some popular clergy in order to avoid possible future wars.
For example, when two war gods meet, it is difficult for both sides not to attack each other.
On the one hand, everyone is a god of war, so no one will accept each other, but the most important thing is that the divine nature is the same origin, because they are both gods of war. As long as you kill the other party and devour the other party's divine nature, you can improve the divine nature level completely without side effects. This is a temptation that all practitioners cannot refuse.
If Zhang Sen becomes a God of War, then he must consider whether he has enough strength to protect himself or even kill the other gods in the future.
With the same clergy, there is almost no possibility of peaceful coexistence between both sides!
There is also a relatively small division in the Shinto, namely the natural god, the concept god and the element god.
The concept god is actually: the god of war, the god of martial arts, the god of death, the god of law, the god of beast...
The natural gods are: the sun god, the moon god, the mountain god, the sea god, the earth god, the shadow god...
The last elemental gods are: Fire God, Water God, Wind God, Thunder God, Earth God, Light God, Dark God, Poison God...
Generally speaking, the divine practitioners choose priesthoods as concept gods, natural gods and element gods.
Simply put, a divine character has three priesthoods, each with three types.
For example, the God of War, the Sun God, Fire God, will have a very violent divine power and will often have very strong combat power.
There are also similar to the Death God Moon God Water God, whose divine power will produce various strange and unpredictable abilities, and can even surpass the level of death and death enemies.
What Zhang Sen needs to consider most now is how to choose his priesthood.
At present, he is not qualified to choose three or more clergy. The only thing he needs to consider is the conceptual clergy of God.
In fact, the priesthood of concept god is very wide. As long as it is a concept of existence, it can be used as a priesthood. Even the "Concept God" itself is a priesthood. However, because this priesthood is too wide, it is difficult for believers to understand the characteristics of the gods they believe in, and it is often difficult to gain more faith.
The clergy is not the higher the sound, the better it is, but the easier it is to be understood by believers.
For example, God of War, everyone knows what this God does when they hear it.
But if it is the God of Creation, it sounds very powerful, but how can Creation create it?
God said that there would be light, there would be light?
It is difficult for believers to understand, or even impossible to imagine, and naturally they can provide much less power of faith.
For example, the God of Programmers, the believers chosen are a large group of programmers, so the power of faith that the God of Programmers can obtain will be far more than the God of Creation, because programmers all understand what the God of Programmers is.
But if the God of Programmers is placed in ancient times and a large group of ancient people believe in this god, then the power of faith will be very little, because no one knows what a programmer is.
Zhang Sen now must consider a priesthood that everyone can easily accept and will not have too much competition.
Of course, the ideal state is that there is no competition at all, and the only priesthood.
In fact, he had considered the God of Wisdom, because "wisdom" itself is also a concept that is invisible and intangible, but everyone knows the concept of its existence.
The problem is that the God of Wisdom is similar to the God of War, and they are both popular priests. The possibility of meeting competitors in the future is as high as 99.9%.
Zhang Sen is not afraid of competition. If the strength of both sides is similar, competing with each other will also help improve each other.
The problem is that those who compete with him are some old monsters who have practiced for many years. Who can stand this?
This is a good race. Zhang Sen is still preparing to start at the starting point. He is almost at the finish line and is still a bit too bad.
Zhang Sen pondered hard all night, but in the end he still had no good idea. Choosing a priest is a very cautious thing. One step is wrong, and one step is better than one step to make a rush to make a choice.
Finally, he left the Kingdom of God and returned to the castle, and decided to calm himself down first and then think carefully.
Temporarily putting the matter of choosing a clergy aside, Zhang Sen began to prepare seeds of various plants.
Although there are already mountains and waters in the human Taoist space, the problem is that there are no plants or animals, so he needs to prepare them.
He did not plan to plant ordinary plants, but was preparing to plant potions and spiritual plants.
Potions: Magical drugs, generally speaking, the growth conditions are very harsh and are often highly toxic. They need to be transformed into beneficial agents through special means.
Spiritual plants: Plants containing spirituality have harsh growth conditions. However, spiritual plants themselves are not toxic, but have various rare effects. Some plants even need to be refined and can enhance the body's various attributes and even lifespan by eating them directly.
If Zhang Sen was asked to find the magic potion plant himself, even if he had a lost door, it would still be difficult to find one.
But he now has a cheating method, which is to go directly to the mirror world to buy it.
To be honest, he really doesn't know what is impossible to buy in the mirror world.
It is said that in the shops in front of Jingjie Trading Street, there were even gods auctioned as slaves. You can imagine how terrifying the power behind the Trading Street is.
The magical grocery store that Zhang Sen opened in the Mirror Realm was already located in the middle section of the street. He also knew a lot of common sense about the Mirror Realm.
For the first 100 shops in the Jingjie Realm, you need not only have good products, but also the store owner’s own strength must be strong.
It is said that each of the top ten owners of the store has amazing power and mysterious means.
There was once a wizard who managed his store well and actually squeezed into the top ten, but the next day the store disappeared out of thin air.
There is only one answer to this kind of store disappearing, that is, the wizard himself died.
So if you don’t have strong strength, it’s best not to try to mess with the top ten.
Of course, because the owners of these stores are strong enough, more wizards choose their products, which is equivalent to the star effect.
Moreover, the products in these stores are indeed better than those in ordinary stores, and many products that cannot be purchased by ordinary stores can be purchased after members.
Zhang Sen spent one night writing down the list of plants he needed, and after breakfast, he entered the mirror world.
Although he cannot be said to have a very good understanding of the mirror world, he knows almost the same common sense.
For example, if you want to buy a mysterious creature, the store opened by Shira's friend is the best choice. For example, if you want to buy a good potion, it is best to go to the potion shop located in the ninth row of the Trading Street.
The name of this store is Potion Shop, which only sells all kinds of strange potions.
Zhang Sen walked into the potion shop, and a beautiful woman descended from above and asked, "This guest, don't know what you need?"
The woman's upper body is so beautiful that it is suffocating. Her chest is just covered with two leaves, but her lower body is suddenly indifferent. Her lower body is a flower bud, and a long green vine is connected to it.
Zhang Sen reads information about this woman in the Book of Truth.
Beauty Vine is an extremely dangerous potion. They will use their beautiful appearance and the fragrance of hallucination to attract tourists who accidentally enter the depths of the jungle, and finally pull the tourists into the abyss to make flower fat.
However, Zhang Sen found that this beauty vine was a little different, and it did not emit a deadly fragrance.
"This is the first time a guest is here? Haha, don't be afraid, I am the beauty fungus improved by the owner. Although no one still cares about it, at least it won't harm anyone." The woman smiled immediately when she saw Zhang Sen's shocked look.
Zhang Sen quickly spoke, "Sorry, I just didn't expect to encounter such a rare potion, and I didn't react for a while."
However, his words immediately made the beauty Teng chuckled again.
