"Previously on the Vast Star, blessings were directly bestowed upon living beings, but the resulting power of faith was rather limited," Lin Yu pondered. "Now I want to see if fear can also catalyze the power of faith."
Lin Yu divided the divine power extracted from the octopus tentacles into three parts and placed them in three locations on the Azure Star, then completely switched to "laissez-faire mode".
Without the limitations imposed by Lin Yu's ideals, the main god's power unanimously developed into something resembling the god of truth and order.
Of course, everything Lin Yu is doing now is based on the premise that he can control the situation.
The divine power extracted from the octopus tentacles by the Hongmeng System appeared to be just a random extraction, but in reality, Lin Yu deliberately had it select the portion that "depended" on him.
Moreover, when Lin Yu poured the three parts of power into the Azure Star, he specifically added traits such as loyalty and order to them.
Lin Yu wanted to use the power of the main god on the octopus tentacles to cause some damage on Azure Star, but this damage obviously could not be endless.
Putting everything else aside, this Azure Star is a civilization that Lin Yu painstakingly built up. If it's destroyed by the power of the main god, who will Lin Yu cry to?
After finishing up the matter on Azure Star, Lin Yu turned his attention back to Vast Star.
Recently, the faith power provided by the Vast Star to Lin Yu has been gradually decreasing.
This matter forced Lin Yu to take it seriously. Given the current speed and quality at which the Star of Vastness was providing him with faith power, it was uncertain when Lin Yu would be able to complete the third stage of divine power replenishment.
In fact, if things hadn't gone wrong on Azure Star, Lin Yu wouldn't have bothered with any experiments there.
The reason why the Vast Star has become like this is largely due to the fact that the Eagle Kingdom has ruled over the entire world.
The existence of the three major churches is perfectly normal for the beings on the vast star.
This is why the vast majority of beings on the Vast Star are born as the most devout believers.
However, under Lin Yu's protection, the creatures on the Vast Star lived a life free from worry about life and death and warmth, and Lin Yu used his spiritual power to eliminate various natural disasters.
While this helped Lin Yu create many devout followers, it also subtly influenced the followers of the Vast Star to become less devout.
There was a saying in Lin Yu's previous life, "Those who do not know suffering will not believe in gods and Buddhas." This means that people who have not encountered suffering that is beyond human control will find it difficult to have faith in or rely on gods and Buddhas.
This is the current situation for the beings on the vast star.
However, their excessive faith in the existence of a true god like Lin Yu resulted in a limited amount of faith power they provided, making it difficult to advance further.
In this vast expanse of stars, anyone who doesn't believe in the existence of God is a freak.
Having considered this, Lin Yu decided to give the people on the Vast Star a challenge.
However, before setting up the specific disaster, Lin Yu would still maintain a certain degree of restraint, after all, he did not want to cause large-scale loss of life.
On one hand, it's because Lin Yu isn't that cruel; on the other hand, the large-scale massacre of living beings also affects the amount of faith power Lin Yu can gain.
On the Azure Star, Lin Yu placed high hopes on the divine aura extracted from the octopus tentacles, but unfortunately, that power had not yet been fully developed, and it would be quite some time before he could see any effects.
"Sigh." Even someone as clever as Lin Yu was at a loss.
"The strength of faith is mainly determined by two factors: the number of believers and the level of their spiritual development."
"If there are enough believers, even if their spiritual level is not high, their piety can still lead to a qualitative change through quantitative accumulation."
"And if a believer's spiritual level is high enough and their own power is strong enough, they can also provide very powerful faith."
"It's like the difference between the power of faith that a being from an ordinary fantasy world and a being at the level of a supreme god are capable of providing."
Lin Yu muttered to himself. He already knew this information, but he was only saying it now to sort out his chaotic thoughts.
What he needs most right now is a sufficiently strong power of faith, so the path before him is very simple, consisting of only two options.
Either increase the number of your followers, or elevate the spiritual level of your followers.
With Lin Yu's current strength, gaining followers in higher-level worlds is extremely difficult.
Moreover, the other gods also know this principle. Those worlds with higher levels have long been divided up by the original gods. It is not so easy for Lin Yu to jump in now.
"It seems that the only way to increase the power of faith is to increase the number of believers," Lin Yu muttered to himself.
Unfortunately, Lin Yu's own power is currently very limited, and he cannot infinitely replicate the process of cultivating believers like the Star of the Vast Expanse.
Lin Yu didn't have the time to sow seeds of life on every planet in the Origin World, nurture life from its most primitive state, and then teach them the path of faith.
Not only is it a lot of hard work, but the benefits gained may not even be proportional to the effort he puts in.
"Since we can no longer sow seeds among the beings of other worlds, there's only one method left." Lin Yu turned his gaze back to the Vast Star.
That relies on the reproductive capacity of the creatures on the vast star!
When the number of beings and the technology on the vast planet reached their peak, they had no choice but to undertake interstellar migration and expand to worlds beyond the vast planet.
"Forget it, the current state of the Vast Star is still too far from interstellar migration. Besides, even if I directly use spiritual power to help them complete the migration, their fragile bodies probably won't be able to adapt to the environment of other worlds." Lin Yu raised his hand and then lowered it again.
This path is blocked, so what else can we do?
After careful consideration, Lin Yu took a different approach and found his own third path.
That is to increase the faith of the beings on the Vast Star in their deities, through terrible calamities, thereby strengthening their faith in the gods!
Lin Yu needs to create a disaster that only a god can solve, and then resolve it!
