Chapter 139 The Origin of Faith
According to common sense, with the huge population base in the modern world, there should be a more massive power of faith.
But the reality is quite the opposite. The amount of faith power generated is pitifully small.
And this ancient world with a population of only over 10 million was able to contribute up to 5 million merits!
What surprised the Big Golden Dragon even more was that she did not sense any similar presence here.
What exactly is the reason why there is such a strong belief in creatures like dragons that have never appeared here?
Su Anan knew why this world had such a deep faith in the Golden Dragon.
This includes not only the momentum created by the big golden dragon she transformed into this time.
It is also inseparable from the efforts of the spirit pet of another fallen monk, plus the ancient people have always firmly believed that dragons, such as the golden dragon, are real creatures in the world.
The reason why people in the modern world have little faith in golden dragons is that people are wealthy and do not need to ask for blessings from gods, so naturally they do not have much faith in legendary creatures like golden dragons.
In addition, since no real dragon has ever appeared in front of everyone, everyone regards dragons as illusory legends.
Naturally, it cannot compare to the power of faith that could be generated in ancient times.
But now that the power of faith actually has such an effect on the golden dragon, it must be proclaimed.
As for the reasons why this world has faith in the golden dragon, there are many reasons. She will explain them when the big golden dragon arrives.
"Go and absorb the power of faith first. After you have absorbed it, come find me and Xiao Ling. I will go to the place where the last monk died first. You will understand then."
The big golden dragon nodded slightly, then flew into the sky and began to absorb the endless and powerful power of faith in this world...
The big golden dragon flew away, and Su Anan also took Xiao Ling onto the flying sword, rushing away like a flash of lightning, aiming for the place where the next cultivator would fall.
The place where this monk fell is deep in the vast ocean.
According to Xiaoling's memory, there is no danger there.
At least there is no danger for Su Anan, who is already a monk.
It's just a little troublesome to find.
Because the monk's body had long been eroded by time and deeply buried by thick sea sand.
If this were the remains of an ordinary person, it would have long been corroded by the seabed and eaten by the creatures on the seabed.
But because this was the corpse of a Mahayana monk, the creatures on the seabed didn't dare to get close to it.
The body was buried directly under the sand.
With the help of the mark he had made on the body before, Xiao Ling detected where the monk's body was sleeping on the seabed.
They appeared directly on the sea.
Su Anan was not very interested in the remains of the monk. She was attracted by the space ring and the treasures inside that this Mahayana monk carried with him.
When Su Anan arrived, the big golden dragon had just completed absorbing the power of faith, and also appeared above the sea where the monk fell.
"Huh? There's actually a fallen dragon snake in this sea!"
As soon as the big golden dragon arrived here, he immediately noticed that next to the body of the Mahayana monk covered by sand in the deep ocean, there lay the remains of a huge dragon snake.
She hadn't noticed it before, but now when she thought about what Su Anan had said before, the big golden dragon suddenly understood.
"An An, the huge amount of faith power you mentioned before, is it the credit of this dragon snake?"
Da Jinlong was a little bit unconvinced. If Su Anan hadn't said that before, she wouldn't have thought in this direction.
Su Anan nodded slightly, indicating that what the big golden dragon said was true.
Originally, she didn't think about this matter in the direction of the dragon snake.
But according to Xiao Ling's memory, that monk died first, and his pet snake had dealt with the human world.
Before the cultivator died, he would never let the dragon snake die with him.
After all, the dragon snake was born not long ago when it followed him, so of course he wanted the dragon snake to have a good look at the world.
And the Jiao Snake did take a good look at this world.
When Xiao Ling found the monk's body, the dragon snake was still guarding the monk's body.
The spirit insect also greeted the dragon snake, and did not care about the spirit insect eating all kinds of natural treasures in the cultivator's space.
After the spirit insect eats what it wants, it falls into a deep sleep again.
After guarding the monks at the bottom of the sea for hundreds of years, the dragon snake began to wander around.
At that time, many tribes had already emerged in the world.
Whenever the dragon snake stayed in the tribe to rest, they would see how the human world was developing.
Local tribes all regard it as a sacred totem and regard it as spiritual sustenance and support.
I don’t know if it’s because it hasn’t seen humans for a long time, the dragon snake would tell these humans all kinds of strange stories in the world of immortal cultivation, and at the same time describe the appearance of the characters in them.
Naturally, dragons were also mentioned.
The dragon clan is also the darling of heaven in the world of immortal cultivation, and is somewhat similar to dragons and snakes.
So even though it only appears in the description of the dragon snake, it has not actually appeared in this world.
But humans have always had a reverence for such mysterious beings. And as time went by and generations passed, some tribes originally believed in dragon snakes.
But there are also tribes that admire the strong and believe in real dragons that have never appeared in this world.
Especially after experiencing some natural disasters and man-made tragedies, they became more and more convinced of the illusory dragon that only existed in legends.
In this way, the legend of the dragon was passed down.
The big golden dragon really didn't expect that this was the reason why the world believed in dragons.
I couldn't help but feel a little fond of this dragon snake, but I was also confused.
"Then why doesn't this dragon snake absorb the power of faith to practice?"
If the dragon snake had absorbed the power of human beings' faith in it, how could it have survived until now?
"Maybe they have seen their master fall, so they don't want to live alone? Also, the population of previous dynasties was very small, so there wasn't that much power of faith."
Su Anan guessed that after all, being able to watch the spirit insects eat up all of the master's treasures, while the dragon snakes did not touch anything in the master's space, proved that they had no great desire to survive.
But there is no point in saying anything now, so I should first find out how many treasures are left in this monk’s space ring.
Going to the bottom of the sea is a piece of cake for the golden dragon, just like going home.
It was not a difficult task for Su Anan and Xiao Ling either.
However, Su Anan and Xiao Ling chose to sit on the back of the big golden dragon without hesitation, and let her take them into the deep sea.
An An only needs to use his own spiritual power to resist the huge pressure from the deep sea.
This also gave her time to see the animals on the sea floor.
The ancient oceans had not yet suffered any pollution, and the resources they contained were extremely rich and diverse.
Su Anan saw many kinds of creatures on the seabed.
These are all things I have never seen before.
