Note, the death I'm talking about is not the kind of death where resurrection is possible after, it also represents going to death in reality where resurrection is impossible, referring to a kind of thought.

Religious faith, philosophical faith, political belief, all can meet this standard.

This condition makes it impossible for any player to become your believer.

So you can only choose followers from Monster World's native life, not players.

Since it's a divine status, you are certainly taking a path akin to religious belief.

The foundation of this type of faith is "mystique", and players know you well, inherently lacking the possibility to believe in you.

If you want to take this route, you must maintain an aura of mystery when cultivating Monster World's native life, even as you interact with followers through proxies.

On this basis, you must also build a complete belief system.

Many religious stories and doctrines contain supernatural elements, like the ancient Christianity stories of God creating the world, the flood catastrophe and Noah's Ark, the various divine skills of the Buddha in Buddhism, which exceed ordinary people's daily cognitions and easily pique believers' curiosity, drawing them to explore religious culture deeply, laying the foundation for faith building.

But Monster World already has extraordinary power, so you need to construct a more powerful God, whose abilities are far beyond simple altering of nature.

Secondly, you need to satisfy followers' spiritual needs.

Monster World's creatures are also plagued by many uncertainties and crises such as death, war, catastrophe, etc.

You need to provide followers with a form of transcendental solace, such as the mysterious concepts of soul and afterlife found in religion, allowing them to believe in the continuation of life, filling their hearts with reassurance against the unknown and confusion, making it easier for them to accept the faith you offer.

Lastly, the creation of mystique cannot be omitted.

Political faith can be materialized, for example, the ideology of communism once inspired countless individuals to strive relentlessly for the realization of a communist society, even sacrificing themselves for it.

But choosing religious belief requires establishing a nebulous identity (divine persona); this vague distance can heighten your noble status and make followers more devout.

According to these characteristics, you can only find weak groups to cultivate beliefs.

As for Black Tide, Jile, Ancient Gods, and other powerful factions, forget about them; the likelihood of their belief in you is zilch.

The strength of Divine Soul is indeed very high, but its activation conditions are very stringent, comparable to founding a new civilization.

Though you can spread teachings to establish your belief system amongst other factions, the foundations of a wisdom-based civilization are not something you can easily shake; this is exceedingly difficult.

Perhaps one day in the future, when you're strong enough, you can learn from the Ascension Clan to create a small world farm, spreading divine light and becoming a god above that small world.

Writing this, I also thought of another possibility.

It's to enter the Reverse Tide Army, establish a deep comrade-in-arms belief with their warriors, a belief in sacrificing for one another might also generate power of faith,

But the problem is, the number of contributors to comrade-in-arms belief is definitely limited, and it's possible your follower comrades might just perish on the battlefield tomorrow.

Including cultivating small ethnic groups in Monster World also involves too many uncertainties.

It's possible one day Fire Mage King No. 2 might descend and wipe out the weak forces you've painstakingly supported.

Thinking carefully, the steadiest method seems to only learn from the Ascension Clan, to establish new cognition in a small world, then continuously generate power of faith for you.

To establish a steady faith output in Monster World, unless your followers can also resurrect like us players do after death, thus having infinite fault tolerance against unexpected events.

Ultimately, you're truly damned, how have you managed to gain so much.

...

Colorful Mist Coast, by the beach.

Browsing forum players' replies, Tong Xin's heart grew colder and colder.

Especially from Brother Hei Ye's analytical post, which detailed faith definitions and the stringent requirements for establishing beliefs.

Truly high risk with high reward.

But this high risk might result in the weak forces you've diligently supported for years suddenly vanishing, nullifying all efforts.

"This Divine Soul, seems I can't afford to play with it."

The number of replies keeps increasing, Tong Xin turned to his brothers in the Child Group who were similarly browsing replies, and helplessly said.

"No way, better sell it, considering our ability, it's indeed hard to establish religious belief." Tie Chui sighed as well.

If the director takes off, they could also have a piece of the pie.

But "divine status" is indeed a Life Soul Characteristic that ordinary players can't play with.

Establishing belief is already tough, now there's also the matter of how to protect followers, adding another layer of risk to the already challenging method of acquiring power of faith.

Tong Xin heard this, suddenly inclining towards giving up.

He has no issue with charging into the fray, but cultivating a faction genuinely troubles him a bit.

"Forget it, I'll ask later if any guild leaders want to buy Divine Soul, if no one's buying, I'll decompose it to produce many sacrificial power."

Saying this, Tong Xin couldn't help but sigh.

At this moment, a suddenly quiet cute baby spoke:

"Director, look at this comment."

And with that, cute baby visualized sharing the forum interface in front.

Tong Xin raised his head to look, and on the interface was a reply from a forum player:

I am Destiny: After reading Brother Hei Ye's analysis, I thought of a force very suitable for establishing belief: the Dark Race.

This group is recently trying to interact with us players, several encounters during Hunting at the Colorful Mist Coast Region, they proactively helped us fight monsters.
