Enfeoffing Myriad Gods, Preaching Across the Heavens

Shen Zhaochi's True Spirit drifted within the Investiture of the Gods Space.

A sweep of his divine sense revealed a simple chat interface unfolding before him.

[Ding!]

[Moon Worship Cult Leader has joined the group chat!]

[Bu Yao Bi Lian has joined the group chat!]

[Ye Hei has joined the group chat!]

Shen Zhaochi's thoughts stirred, his consciousness sinking into the chat.

The group was lively.

Bu Yao Bi Lian: "What the hell is this thing? Who pulled me in? Come out! I promise I won't beat you to death!"

Bu Yao Bi Lian: "Hello? Anyone there? Say something! What kind of group is this? New members join, and there's not even a welcome ceremony or red envelopes?"

Moon Worship Cult Leader: "Red envelopes? What are red envelopes? A treasure that can answer the truths of the world?"

Moon Worship Cult Leader: "What I care more about is, where exactly are we? This place doesn't seem to be reality, but rather a convergence on a spiritual level. Is this world round, or square?"

Bu Yao Bi Lian: "...No, big bro, are you okay? Did you slip through the cracks of compulsory education?"

Ye Hei: "..."

Ye Hei remained silent, merely lurking and observing.

Shen Zhaochi could sense that this fellow named "Ye Hei" was using a special method to try and analyze the nature of this chat group, even attempting to trace the connection through the internet.

Interesting.

However, now was the time for the group owner to make an appearance.

He didn't speak, merely utilized his permissions as the group owner.

[System Notification: The group owner has changed the group name to "God of Gods"!]

A line of golden text, imbued with an inexplicable pressure, appeared in the center of the chat box.

The chat group, which had been so active moments ago, fell into a deathly silence.

Several seconds passed.

Bu Yao Bi Lian: "Holy crap! The group owner! Alive! That name sounds so badass! A big shot has appeared!"

Bu Yao Bi Lian: "God of Gods? This name... it's oozing power! Big shot, do you still need someone to hang onto your leg? Someone who can shout '666'!"

This guy's attitude changed so quickly.

Moon Worship Cult Leader: "God of Gods? You refer to yourself as a god?"

Moon Worship Cult Leader: "If there are gods in this world, why does suffering still exist on Earth? Why can't lovers be together? May I ask, Your Excellency, what is a god?"

A series of philosophical triple questions, filled with the pursuit of truth.

Ye Hei: "Got something."

Ye Hei, who had been lurking, finally chimed in.

Shen Zhaochi's True Spirit fluctuated slightly as he typed a line into the chat box.

God of Gods: "I am not a god."

God of Gods: "I, enfeoff gods."

As the words fell, the entire chat group fell silent once more.

Enfeoff gods!

These four words carried far more impact than the title "God of Gods"!

It signified authority, status, and the power to set rules!

Bu Yao Bi Lian: "Big shot is awesome! (Voice crack)"

Moon Worship Cult Leader: "Enfeoff... gods? You mean, gods are appointed by you?"

Ye Hei: "Empty words."

Shen Zhaochi no longer paid attention to the shock in the group.

He had made his point. Now, it was time to consider how to monetize that swagger.

"System, come out."

His divine sense echoed within the Investiture of the Gods Space.

"That Primordial Violet Qi (Pseudo) Converter, how do I use it? Where do I get incense and world origin?"

[Primordial Violet Qi (Pseudo) Converter can be transformed by absorbing massive amounts of Power of Incense and Faith and Power of World Origin.]

[Power of Incense and Faith can be obtained by wise beings worshipping the host's divine statue and spreading the host's divine name.]

[Power of World Origin is the core energy of a world. The method of acquisition is usually to destroy the world and forcibly extract it.]

Destroying the world?

Shen Zhaochi directly rejected this option.

Killing the chicken to get the eggs was something only fools would do.

"Spreading my faith in the Primordial Era? Don't joke, Saints above, who would believe me, an unknown nobody."

He knew his place. Competing with those Saints for business would be like rushing to his own death.

[System detected: The Heavenly Dao laws of the Primordial Era world are stable, and the faith system is deeply rooted. The host cannot obtain incense offerings in this world.]

[Only path: Myriad Realms Divine Domain Chat Group.]

As expected.

Shen Zhaochi's "gaze" fell upon the names of the three chat group members.

"You mean, have them build temples for me in their own worlds and develop believers?"

[This is the method to obtain incense offerings and faith.]

"What about the Power of World Origin? We can't have them blow up their own homes, can we?"

[The System has planned the optimal solution for the host.]

[Step 1: Group members will establish temples for the host in their respective worlds, spread faith, and collect Divine Power.]

[Step 2: The host will consume Divine Power to project the authority of the Investiture of the Gods into that world, establishing "divine positions."]

[Step 3: Group members will select suitable candidates, and the host will "confer titles" to fill the divine positions. The conferred deities will gain recognition from the Heavenly Dao of that world, possess Divine Power, fulfill their divine duties, and maintain the order of heaven and earth.]

[Step 4: As the Godhood System is established and perfected, that world will gain order stability and an increase in energy level, known as "plane ascension."]

[Step 5: As a contributor to plane ascension, the host will receive a portion of the Power of World Origin as a reward from the Heavenly Dao of that world.]

The System's cold voice painted a grand blueprint in Shen Zhaochi's True Spirit.

This wasn't plunder.

It was investment!

Using a world as a chessboard, establishing his own Godhood order, and then reaping the benefits of the world's growth!

Truly brilliant!

This plan could harvest incense offerings, earn Power of World Origin, and firmly bind the group members to his chariot.

After all, the deities he conferred in those worlds would need the group members to manage and balance them.

He would eat the meat, and the group members could follow and drink the soup, even becoming the masters of a world's "pantheon." Who would refuse?

"Perfect."

Shen Zhaochi's True Spirit trembled with excitement.

He could already see his statues erected in countless worlds, billions of living beings praying day and night, and immense amounts of incense offerings and Power of World Origin flowing into the Investiture of the Gods like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, ceaselessly.

By then, let alone Venerable Yuanshi.

Even Dao Ancestor Hongjun wouldn't be able to do anything to him!

His divine sense returned to the Chat Group.

Looking at the three constantly flashing avatars, he felt an immense sense of closeness.

These weren't just group friends.

They were clearly the first angel investors on his path to glory!

Ye Hei: "Your Excellency claims you can confer titles upon gods. Do you have proof?"

This Ye Hei was truly cautious.

Shen Zhaochi smiled slightly and took out the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir from the spoils he had just obtained.

He didn't speak and directly sent a special red envelope.

[Ding! Group Leader "God of Gods" has sent you a special red envelope.]
