Chapter 402: Religion

“Did you make a mistake?” Chu Tian couldn’t help asking the nearby Delores, “What part of this fellow looks like a god?”

Delores had a look of reverence and when she heard Chu Tian say this, she glared at him, “You dare insult the great Demonic God, that means you are my Demonic God Religion’s enemy!”

Demonic God Religion?

He had never heard of it before!

But it should be a religion like the Druid Religion or the Shaman Region. This was not like a cult or sect like the human’s Heavenly Demon Sect, there was an essential difference between them.

The influence of a sect depended on their inherited cultivation technique. Their personnel were very centralized and they were a very condensed group.

Religions primarily depended on inheriting belief. Of course religions also had a key inherited cultivation technique, but their members were not centralized. A single religion could not only surpass a region, it could even surpass a race.

“What is this Demonic God of yours?” Chu Tian did not pay attention to Delores’ hostile look, “Also how many Druids and Shaman religions are there in this area?”

Delores did not want to talk to this fellow who hit the Spiritual Monkeys and disrespected the Demonic God, but the Demonic God was brought here by him, so Delores just explained it simply.

Originally, religion was very popular in the depths of the Forest of Chaos.

After all, the forest was very ancient, so many things were related from the great ancient era. Although there were many religions, the strongest powers in this were were the Druid Religion, the Shaman Religion, the Undead Religion, and the Green Religion. As for these fox tribe members who believed in the Demonic God, they were a second class power.

“Green Religion?” Chu Tian was stunned, “Is this Green Religion related to Green City?”

This fellow really was an outsider, he actually didn’t even know about this.

“The Green Religion are a bunch of people who believe in the forest, their believes branched out from the elves. The Green Religion had a lot of power in the forest before, but they have now declined and cannot even compare to the Druids and Shamans.”

So it was like this.

The Green Religion branched out from the elves, so it was no wonder the Elven King could obtain Green City through diplomatic means. Chu Tian never thought that the influences in this place would be so complicated, just these religions were enough to cause him a headache.

Because the religion believers were very fanatical and these people were troublesome to deal with.

The cultivation techniques of these religions were very special. To use an example, if a believer of the Fire God Religion had a water attributed source spirit, cultivating a fire attributed cultivation technique was just suicide. But if they cultivated the inherited fire attributed cultivation technique of the religion, as long as their faith was strong enough, not only would they feel no backlash to their source spirit, their cultivation would become stronger with their faith.

Therefore the inherited cultivation techniques of religions mainly relied on faith.

These believers worshipped or believed objects not only because it was good for their mind, but also because it was related to the growth of their cultivation, so these believers would be even more fanatical.

The move that Delores had just used was clearly similar to the summoning technique the fox normally used.

He had never seen this summoning technique in any ancient cultivation technique books, so Chu Tian did not understand it well. It should be a demonic technique from an ancient demon tribe. He was almost certain that this demonic technique could not be used by normal people. Even Chu Tian could not learn it at will, but these fox people could use it and they weren’t demons from the great ancient era!

There is only one possibility.

An ancient era Demonic God established this religion with some method, allowing these lower life forms believe in them and use their power. Chu Tian did not know what motives these ancient Demonic Gods had in constructing this religion, but there was a train of thought that said that the belief of all things was itself a strong power and Demonic Gods could absorb this to become stronger.

If it was like this, the little fox’s ancestor was really related to these fox people.

There was a large temple in the center of the tribe which was built from the skeletons of giants beasts and giant stones. It was over a hundred meters tall and looked very grand and magnificent. However, it seemed like it had been eroded by the elements, so this temple seemed like it had a very long history.

The tribe was very small, only having less than twenty thousand people. Don’t think that they were easy to bully because they were small, the entire tribe believed in the Demonic God and most of them could summon out demon beasts to fight. There were also the beasts trained by the Demonic God Religion, like the Spiritual Monkeys outside who were all tamed by the Demonic God Religion. So, one could not look down on their power, they could at least sweep through the surrounding tribes.

The little fox had already returned to its normal form.

It was carried by the fanatical worshippers to the high stage and all the fox clan people were bowing in worship to it. The little fox quickly adapted its role. Although it was small, it curled its tail and sat on the stage. Its clear eyes sparkled as it looked like a lion, looking down at everyone before raising its head, accepting everyone’s kowtow.

Chu Tian rolled his eyes as he watched the fox’s performance.

He walked out by himself. There were many totems here and the most frequent one was a fierce and dignified looking Nine Tailed Demon Fox.

There was a record of the Nine Tailed Demon Fox in the young miss’ Heavenly Book.

Legends say that of the ancient demon race that coexisted with the great ancient era Demon Gods, there was the Nine Tailed Demonic God that ruled over the demons, the king of demons. They controlled the strongest demonic technique of the demon clans and it was strong enough to push back Demon Gods.

It seemed like the little fox really was the Nine Tailed Demonic Fox’s descendant?

Chu Tian was still a bit confused. The Nine Tailed Demonic Fox’s descendant was nurtured in the Ten Thousand Year Old Yin Corpse for ten thousand years. After it was born in that evil environment, the little fox not only had its ancestor’s abilities, it also had the ability to destroy evil energy.

Excited and happy cheers came from the temple at this time.

The little fox sat out a stone platform as it used its nails to write a strange passage. Chu Tian could not understand a single word, but it should be the demon tribe’s words. From the happiness of the followers, it should be an application method of a demonic technique.

These followers bowed in gratitude again and again.

When the ceremony ended, the fox clan members brought many good things forward. Precious Spirit Fruits, crystals, and Demon Jades were all brought in front of the little fox. The little fox was filled with happiness, it had never been worshipped before. With all these good things presented to it, in comparison, its master was too bad, beating it whenever it ate a little.

The little fox being incomparably spirited made Chu Tian want to go up and hit it. However, Chu Tian was very clear that if he charged up and hit the fox in this situation, he would be quickly ganged up on by the fanatical followers.

He had to endure for now!

There was an unexpected benefit for coming here!

Chu Tian had come to Green City to obtain information and see if he could win over the local tribes ahead of time, but he did not have much hope. This was because the local powers were very strong and Chu Tian wanting to infiltrate by himself was not an easy matter.

Now it was good, he had saved quite a bit of effort.

This Demonic God Religion was a bit weak, but their base did have some strength and they have lived here for many years, understanding the situation around Green City very well. This was the ally Chu Tian currently required.

“Everyone has already seen that me and your Demonic God are comrades, so we definitely are not enemies.”

With this remark.

Everyone was stunned.

They all looked at the little fox who was vigorously eating.

The little fox felt everyone’s gaze and suddenly looked down at Chu Tian, instantly feeling joy. Master, ah master, I never thought there would be a day where you would ask a request from this fox. As long as this fox gives an order, they will strip you and beat your ass. This will be my revenge for you beating me everyday!

An ominous glow appeared in Chu Tian’s eyes!

The little fox gave a snort before nodding and continuing to eat.

The old fox man who was also the High Priest quickly stood up, “Since your excellency is the Demonic God’s friend, of course you are also our most honourable guest. If there is anything you need help with, our Demonic God Religion will not decline.”

That was more like it!

Chu Tian cleared his throat, “Since the High Priest has said this, I’ll frankly introduce myself. I am the new City Lord of Green City and I have come here alone to investigate the situation.”

Green City’s City Lord?

Everyone looked at him with surprised expressions.

When did the Green City’s City Lord become a human?

Wasn’t this city just taken by the elves a few days ago!

The elves and humans did not have a good relation and it could be considered unfriendly. How could the elves give an important city like Green City to the humans? But they had to believe in facts as Chu Tian took out the token the Elven King gave him.

A stir passed through the fox people.

They never would have thought that this young person was the entrusted City Lord of the Eternal Forest. If he could become the City Lord, the surrounding thousand miles would all belong to him. These members of the Demonic God Religion would also be managed by the City Lord.

The High Priest was the most calm as he gave a few soft coughs, “Although your excellency is the City Lord, with Green City’s current situation, it is not an easy matter for you to sit in the City Lord’s position!”

Chu Tian liked talking with smart people.

This would save him a lot of effort.

Although from earlier to now, most of these fox people seemed like idiots, worshipping that damn fox, the fox tribe was still the most intelligent of spirit beasts. They were a very clever race and as long as they were properly trained, they would be natural profiteers or sly politicians.

This High Priest could become their leader, so naturally he could see that their Demonic God was related to this young man. The Demonic God came with this young man and this young man looked at the Demonic God with very disrespectful eyes, so perhaps their Demonic God had made a generous compromise with him.

This young man said he was Green City’s City Lord and he had come alone without bringing an army. Although his strength was not bad, it was only not bad. Just in this Demonic God Religion, there were over fifty people that could deal with him.

He most likely only obtained the qualification to be the City Lord and did not have enough strength to sit in the position, so he came alone to investigate. If they helped this person when he didn’t have the strength to become the City Lord, when he became Green City’s City Lord, wouldn’t he provide help to their Demonic God Religion?
