Under the protection of the pseudo-faxiang, Ye Zan finally passed through the passage safely and came to the so-called outer world. Facing the world floating in the void, he did not rush down impatiently, but first released the war fortress from the small world. After all, he was already in the outer world now, and he didn't want to be unable to even release the war fortress when he encountered some outer world evil.
Of course, since Ye Zan was in the void at this time, the upper part of the war fortress was already sealed when he came out of the small world. At this time, the war fortress turned into an upright diamond-shaped shuttle, except that the upper part of the sealing barrier was transparent.
Besides, those people on the war fortress were sent to the small world by Ye Zan again due to the size of the fortress that was difficult to pass in front of the passage in the underworld. Not even ten minutes after entering the small world, an alarm sounded in the fortress, and layers of transparent barriers were seen rising around them.
Through the transparent barrier, everyone on the war fortress looked outside. The blue sky and white clouds in the small world quickly faded and eventually turned into darkness. Faced with such a situation, it was not their first contact with the War Fortress, so naturally they were not surprised by it. They immediately understood that this was coming out of the small world again.
"Have we already reached the Outer World?" Thinking of the Outer World, everyone couldn't help but feel a little excited.
"I have kept you waiting for a long time. We have indeed arrived in the Outer World now, but we are in the void outside the continent. Please allow me to adjust the fortress, and we will soon be able to see the continent of the Outer World. "Ye Zan has returned to the fortress and said to everyone who didn't notice him.
While talking to everyone, Ye Zan controlled the war fortress and slowly adjusted the angle and height relative to the mainland. Under his adjustment, the continent that was originally located under the fortress gradually appeared in everyone's field of vision from bottom to top.
Of course, to the people on the war fortress, it seemed that it was not the fortress beneath their feet that was moving, but that the continent was slowly moving up.
"This Outer World looks like... not that great! This area alone is probably only one-tenth the size of our Shenhua Domain." Lin Mumu was both curious and a little disappointed after seeing the continent of the Outer World. said.
The Lin family siblings helped Ye Zan sit in the War Fortress, and followed the War Fortress into the endless void many times. Naturally, they had seen the overall appearance of those realms. Therefore, after combining the previous understanding of those realms, Lin Mumu quickly roughly guessed the size of the current continent in the outer world.
The size of this continent, or the size of the world, is to a certain extent related to the strength of the world.
In the battle between immortals and demons that year, the demons outside the world fought "on a par" with the fairy court, and even tore the monastic world into pieces. This shows how terrifying the evil demons outside the world are. Then, according to the law that the stronger the power, the larger the world, the world where the evil spirits from outside the world are must be at least no smaller than the world of monasticism.
But now, the continent floating in the void that appears outside the war fortress is only less than one-tenth of the area of the Shenhua Domain. Lin Mumu didn't think that such a world could give birth to such terrifying extraterrestrial evil spirits as in the legend.
"Could it be that the battle between immortals and demons that year was not just about our world being shattered?" Qi Qianjun also speculated wildly.
Regarding the specific situation of the outer world, Ye Zan did not get much information from the clone of Xuanyuan Daozu. Many things were just his own speculations or even guesses. Therefore, he would naturally not share the results of his speculations or guesses with others, lest he be slapped in the face if he guessed wrong.
However, now that he is here, Ye Zan has personally felt the power of the laws of this world, and some of his guesses have been confirmed.
"The world we see now is probably just one of the many colonies of the demons from outside the world. It is not the real lair of the demons from outside the world." Without the worry of being slapped in the face, Ye Zan told one of his guesses come out.
"A colony of evil spirits from outside the world?" After all, Lin Mumu had been with Ye Zan for many years, and was no stranger to the word colony. He once again set his sights on that continent, touched his chin and said, "Then, what we have to do now is to bring them Be free from the clutches of the evil spirits outside."
"Well, you can put it that way." Ye Zan smiled and did not correct anything.
In fact, to be strictly speaking, if Ye Zan succeeds in "preaching" this time, it will only change the world in front of him from a colony of evil spirits from outside to a colony of the monastic world. Let’s not talk about liberation, freedom, and autonomy. So what if the world is free? That's just waiting for the next invader to appear.
"Your Majesty, regarding the matter of 'preaching', I wonder if your Majesty has any plans?" Mo Ru is most concerned about this matter, but until now he has not come up with any good plan. In the end, he can only ask Ye Thanks for asking.
There was no way around it, after all, Mo Ru was a person from a very traditional sect when he was in the world of cultivation. Although, after Ye Zan created the Internet, people in the monastic world continue to have new ideas. However, nothing can appear out of thin air. The foundation of everything is still the cultural tradition of the monastic world. Therefore, no matter how liberated people are in the world of monasticism, it is still difficult to break away from a certain structure.
Just like the current "preaching" matter, no matter how much you think about it in your heart, you still can't break away from the frame of establishing a sect and recruiting disciples.
"I do have some ideas about this matter. Although it depends on the specific situation of this world, it doesn't hurt to talk to you in advance." Ye Zan's words were a bit conservative, and he did not directly take care of everything. .
Although Ye Zan was not very sure about what he said, Mo Ru still looked happy when he heard it, and he quickly saluted and said, "Please give me some advice, Your Majesty!"
"Although the situation in this world is unclear now, I think some things are still universal. For example, the rejection of outsiders, the fear and yearning for the unknown, the admiration for outstanding people, and so on." Ye Zan did not say these words only to Mo Rushi, but to everyone in the war fortress.
After all, Ye Zan is the one with the important responsibility of "preaching", and Mo Ru is only responsible for the specific affairs such as the establishment and operation of the sect. The other people on the fortress were all brought by Ye Zan to help him, and naturally they all had to participate in the "preaching" thing.
Therefore, Ye Zan not only wanted to let Mo Rushi know what kind of plans he had in "preaching", but also wanted to let others know various precautions.
"That is to say, as outsiders, after we enter this world, it is best not to reveal our identity as outsiders. Otherwise, even if we do something beneficial to them, it will only be for other purposes in their eyes. Although, we do have other intentions..." Ye Zan first provided everyone with the issue of identity confidentiality.
No matter which world you are in, "exclusion" is a common characteristic of all living things. Even beasts with little intelligence will use peeing or other methods to establish their territory. For intelligent beings, their "xenophobic" nature is even more vivid. For example, "racial discrimination" and "regional discrimination" are the ultimate manifestations of "xenophobia".
Therefore, if Ye Zan and others enter that world, let the intelligent beings in that world know that they are people from another world. So, no matter what Ye Zan and the others do, the intelligent beings in that world will instinctively hold an attitude of rejection and warning.
What does “preaching” do? It is to make people believe in "Tao", and the basis of belief is trust. If you can't even gain the trust of those people, how can you make them believe in what you want to spread
"What your Majesty said is true. Once we make them wary because of our status, I'm afraid they will be in a difficult situation no matter what they do." Mo Ru nodded in agreement.
"Under the condition of ensuring that they are not excluded, the following things are actually not difficult to do. If we want them to believe in our 'Tao', we cannot directly show them the 'Tao', but we need to do the 'Tao' Certain packaging. My plan is to start with faith worship and establish a few beings worthy of worship, such as so-called 'heroes'." Ye Zan went on to talk about his second step.
Worshiping heroes and pinning one's hopes on outstanding peers is also one of the natures of intelligent beings. For example, in the world of science and technology, there used to be a series of "superhero" cultural products, and this superhero or that superhero was highly respected by people.
What if, in this world, there were several existences similar to superheroes, using the power of the packaged monastic world. Then, while the vast majority of people believe in those heroes, they will naturally not be repulsive and wary of the power used by those heroes.
Of course, no matter where you are, it is inevitable that there will be anti-hero ideas, and there are even alternative people who worship villains. However, those people are definitely still a minority, and there may be some who are just different for the sake of being different.
As for whether the majority of people in this outer world worship heroes or the majority of villains, it actually has no impact on Ye Zan's plan. Anyway, he will set up an "idol" for them whichever suits the preferences of the majority. Anyway, as long as he can spread the "Tao".
"Those so-called 'heroes' must be more inspirational, not just geniuses. What inspiration means is that any ordinary person who can work hard like them will have the opportunity to become them. Such people. In this way, there will be opportunities to promote the method of cultivating Taoism." Ye Zan made further plans on the issue of heroes.
In the world of science and technology, many "heroes" in cultural products are geniuses who acquire abilities through accidental mutation, or who already have talents beyond ordinary people. It is indeed easy for a person like that to become people's idol, and not many people care about whether they have a chance. However, what Ye Zan needs to do now is not to create a popular IP, but to truly spread the "Tao".
Therefore, Ye Zan needs to let people know that as long as they do certain things like those heroes, they will have the opportunity to become the companions of those heroes. Maybe, due to talent and other reasons, they will not be able to truly reach the heights of their idols in the end, but as long as they spread the "Tao", Ye Zan's goal will be achieved.
"Brother Ye, what do you mean, give them some 'heroes'? What do you think of me!" Lin Mumu said excitedly after understanding what Ye Zan meant.
"If you are interested, there is no problem." Ye Zan said with a smile.
As for how to establish an idol, Ye Zan naturally has many plans. Among the cultural products in the technological world, there are too many character settings that meet the needs. Therefore, it is really a simple matter to choose a suitable role for Lin Mumu to play from those plans.
In addition, even though Lin Mumu loves to play, it doesn't hurt because of this. On the contrary, it may be easier than others to integrate into the character. As for the other people, from Mo Rushi and Qi Qianjun to the powerful people in the small world such as Sun King and others, they are all so-called "serious" people, and it is inevitable that they will not let go of some things.
"Then let's make an agreement. You must give me a good character setting when the time comes!" Lin Mumu said immediately.
Lin Mumu loves to have fun and learn new things, so during the years she spent with Ye Zan, she learned many things and vocabulary from the technological world. "Character setting" is an essential item, whether in games or in various other cultural products.
"In addition, I also plan to use the form of religion to let people in this world have a deeper belief in 'Tao'. Of course, this world may already have religions, and we don't need to build any new ones. We just need to choose a more suitable one." Religion, just replace it." After erecting the idol, Ye Zan talked about the third step of the plan.
In fact, erecting idols is, to put it bluntly, the so-called "creating gods", and "gods" are essential to religion. No religion can be without God. God is the core of people's faith and the most important pillar of a religion.
Ye Zan has no intention of establishing a new religion. Anyway, the powerful people in this world have basically been solved or held back by the powerful people from the world of monasticism. Then, he can choose a suitable religion, secretly control that religion, and only keep the appearance of that religion.
