127: The decline of the human race and the chaos of the ethnic country

Mirror Lin Chen passed through a spatial rift and directly crashed into the world barrier of a Great World.

This Great World, compared to the unknown Great World Aura encountered, was completely undefended. Its weak and porous world barrier clearly enticed Lin Chen to enter and explore.

Lin Chen didn't hesitate. He entered this unnamed Great World through a crack stretching across its world barrier.

After passing through the crack, Lin Chen directly descended onto a tall mountain, not arriving at the other side of the world barrier as he had expected.

"Heh, why does this feel like fishing?"

Subconsciously, Lin Chen activated Spiritual Stealth.

The current Spiritual Stealth, after Lin Chen's slight modifications and the addition of Causality Power, was already far more effective than the original version and more suitable for Lin Chen's use.

The new Spiritual Stealth retained the original version's ability to reduce presence and alter perception, and also developed the characteristic of severing causality.

When Lin Chen activated Spiritual Stealth, his presence was reduced by 99.9%, and he automatically isolated the causal lines generated with the surrounding world and all things, truly achieving the effect of isolating himself from the world and hiding his presence.

Unless it was a God, no one could discover Lin Chen's existence; even if Lin Chen stood right in front of them, he would be ignored.

At this moment, an energy attack capable of annihilating a Demigod Peak struck the spot where Lin Chen had descended.

Of course, nothing happened. Lin Chen stepped out of the smoke generated by the attack and arrived at the point where the attack originated.

"?"

Lin Chen was a little surprised. He wasn't sure if the human girl in a tech-oriented combat suit in front of him had truly discovered him, or if she was trying to kill that bear and the attack just happened to land where he was.

"I hit it! That's great!"

The next moment, the human girl jumped up happily, her joy overflowing.

Evidently, the girl's attack was aimed at the bear. His descent near the bear was merely a coincidence.

Lin Chen did not reveal himself, merely watching everything before him quietly. As a Karma Dao cultivator, how could he believe this was a coincidence? All coincidences are the result of the convergence of forces like destiny and causality.

The girl didn't notice that someone was observing her. She quickly reached the bear's corpse, put it away, and muttered to herself.

"This Demigod-tier Earth-Splitting Bear will be enough to feed everyone in the Camp for a long time. I'm so lucky today, He Mi, you must work hard. Everyone in the Camp still needs your help."

He Mi, after putting away the bear's corpse, cautiously observed her surroundings, reined in her aura, and headed in a certain direction.

Through the causal lines on He Mi, Lin Chen investigated the stories unfolding around He Mi. He Mi, being a Demigod-tier, was somewhat of a powerhouse in the nearby region, so she naturally understood some information about this world.

The information He Mi understood was being learned and received by Lin Chen.

At the same time, his spiritual power continued to spread outwards, scanning all information within its coverage range, and through this information, constructing his understanding of this world.

He Mi was special; the information she carried was more important than all the information in this area combined.

This Great World was named Ye Huo World.

No one knew the origin of Ye Huo World's name; it had been called that since the birth of the human race.

He Mi was not born in this region; she came from the Human Ancestral Vein of Ye Huo World.

The humans in this isolated island region were merely a remote branch of the Ye Huo World humans, located on an isolated island outside several of Ye Huo World's main continents, relatively cut off from the mainstream world.

The isolated island was named Forbidden God Island, with an area of about 300 million square kilometers, inhabited by about 5 billion humans. This was also due to a disaster on Forbidden God Island.

The mainstream extraordinary path was gene warriors, stemming from the local human race's development of the technological path. Its upper limit was merely Demigod-tier, not even touching the edge of the God Ascension First Order.

Following He Mi, Lin Chen arrived at the Camp He Mi had mentioned.

This Camp was located underground and had a strong technological atmosphere. The strongest person there was the Demigod-tier He Mi; the second strongest only had a sixth-tier cultivation, indicating a severe power vacuum.

He Mi was severely injured half a year ago and accidentally drifted to Forbidden God Island, where she was rescued by Dr. Ye, the creator of this underground Camp.

After He Mi recovered her strength and understood the situation on Forbidden God Island, she had been helping Dr. Ye, who had rescued her, going out to collect important resources and hunt to feed the hundreds of thousands of people in the Camp. These were He Mi's daily routines.

The people in the Camp were also very grateful for He Mi's contributions and greatly respected He Mi. There were no ingrates; even if there were, Dr. Ye would deal with them.

Half an hour later, Lin Chen, through the causal lines of the hundreds of thousands of people in the underground Camp, thoroughly understood the current situation of Forbidden God Island and also gained some understanding of the situation on the several main continents.

The survival of the human race in Ye Huo World was extremely difficult; they were completely at the bottom of the bottom, with no status to speak of, even more tragic than the Myriad Spirits Human Race Lin Chen had encountered.

Of Ye Huo World's five continents, humans were spread throughout, but only in the form of dependents. To survive, they had to rely on various alien races.

Alien races generally established nations, and in these alien nations, humans were the most useful low-class servants.

This was the current situation of humans on the main continents; the situation on Forbidden God Island was also not good.

Ten years ago, the humans of Forbidden God Island still lived in a beautiful state. Hundreds of billions of humans had transformed Forbidden God Island into a beautiful nation suitable for human life, with various technological creations constantly appearing, and the iteration and popularization of gene warriors continuously spreading among the populace.

Then disaster struck. A teleportation gate suddenly appeared on Forbidden God Island, followed by a Devil-monster Clan army of one hundred thousand.

Although the Devil-monster Clan army only numbered one hundred thousand, each member had a seventh-tier cultivation, the strongest was a God Ascension First Order, and there were hundreds of Demigod-tiers, indicating strong high-end combat power.

The human race on Forbidden God Island did not have many Demigod-tier gene warriors, only a few dozen. These few dozen were no match for the Devil-monster Clan's Demigod-tiers, suffering more than half casualties at the beginning of the war.

Fortunately, the Forbidden God Island human race had advanced technology, and their technological weapons were powerful. After paying a heavy price, they annihilated the Devil-monster Clan army.

But this Devil-monster Clan army was merely the vanguard.

Subsequently, more Devil-monster Clan armies entered Forbidden God Island through the teleportation gate. In just three months, Forbidden God Island was occupied by the Devil-monster Clan.

The human population decreased from hundreds of billions to 5 billion, of which over 4 billion were enslaved by the Devil-monster Clan. Only a small number of humans hid in underground bases, barely surviving.

And the Devil-monster Clan was merely a mid-to-low-tier race on the Flowing Cloud Continent, with their strongest being only a seventh-tier Ascension to God, and no Gods existed.

"Should I develop a faith sect, or establish a dynasty?"

After Lin Chen learned about the plight of the Forbidden God Island human race, two options emerged in his mind, and for a moment, he didn't know how to choose.

As for seeking support from the Federation, that was for later. What he needed now was to save the Forbidden God Island human race and liberate these billions of humans.

The Forbidden God Island human race had clearly undergone intellectual enlightenment, and the feudal imperial system had been swept into the dustbin of history. Establishing a dynasty there was unsuitable, so he could only establish a faith sect, which had a lower difficulty.

Faith is not a bad thing. Praying for divine protection, whether for psychological comfort or if a deity can truly save oneself, is not a wrong choice.

A faith sect cannot simply be established. First, the divine name and divine duties need to be determined, scriptures written, and a feedback system for believers established.

Only by solving the believers' problems will believers offer the purest faith. Faith sects that make grand promises are often representatives of corruption and will only seize power for the sect.

Lin Chen first communicated with his faith avatar on Ur Star, learning from its experience in establishing and regulating faith sects.

First, the divine name. Lin Chen pondered for a moment and decided to use the title "Dust World."

All beings suffer, Dust World delivers salvation.

This was the missionary slogan, nothing new, just a label. The specifics would depend on what the Dust World Sect could do for its believers, and believers would naturally attach themselves to the Dust World Sect.

The divine duty would directly be the ultimate divine duty of Creation, encompassing all divine duties, and the fault tolerance rate was also very high.

The Dust World Scripture would naturally be provided by the faith avatar. The Beast-Ear Clan had a talent for writing scriptures, and after modifying some details, it could be directly used.

Finally, the most important part was the believer feedback system.

When believers worship a deity and their faith level reaches a certain point, the deity naturally needs to reciprocate to consolidate the depth of the believers' faith.

This is specifically manifested by establishing a specialized believer-based extraordinary system for believers. Believers have a future to look forward to, and the deeper their faith, the closer they are to the deity.

And believers who possess extraordinary power can also handle some minor matters, so the faith deity does not need to appear for every single thing. Otherwise, the faith deity would seem very cheap, which is not conducive to believers offering faith.

The further from the deity, the purer the faith.

Newly established faith sects generally patch things up little by little during their development. In the early stages, only a general framework is needed; believers will spontaneously fill in the content within the framework, showing strong subjective initiative.
