Free Web NovelChapter 1903: Chapter 1888: Distribution Ratio
"Twice as much!"
"Just this current increase in All Living Beings’ Will Power is already twice the combined increase from the previous two tribes!"
"And it’s still going up!"
"The All Living Beings’ Will Power contributed by this tribe’s Sha Clan people is still increasing!"
Discovering this huge gap, Wuy Youu was almost knocked dizzy by the enormous surprise, and his voice became extremely hurried.
Ye Zhen did not speak. He merely glanced at the wildly ecstatic Wuy Youu, then his gaze fell on the more than a hundred thousand ecstatic Sha Clan people below.
Ye Zhen was very clear on under what circumstances these Sha Clan people, who had already become fanatics, would contribute even more All Living Beings’ Will Power.
"The Yizhi Heavenly God has never abandoned His people. Even if it appears so, it is only temporary. After all, the Yizhi Sand Sea Sky God has such a vast number of subjects that He must protect them one by one."
Amid a low chant like that of a charlatan preacher, Ye Zhen, clad in white robes, seemed like a Heavenly God descending to earth as he slowly dropped from the sky to the ground.
At the first moment, the Chief of the Jade Spring Tribe crawled on his knees to Ye Zhen’s feet. "Great Divine Envoy, please allow this humble believer to pay you homage. It is you who have rescued our Jade Spring Tribe from the abyss of hell. Your footsteps shall be the direction we pursue for all eternity."
As if kissing his most beloved person, and as if savoring the rarest delicacy, the Chief of the Jade Spring Tribe devoutly pressed a kiss onto the top of Ye Zhen’s foot.
In the next instant, Ye Zhen was submerged by countless Sha Clan people.
The tops of his feet were covered in the saliva of these Sha Clan people—no, it should be called marks of devotion.
In the sky above, watching this scene, the Sand Sea Divine Priest Wuy Youu was both shocked and overjoyed.
Four times—just in this short span of time, the All Living Beings’ Will Power he had obtained from the Jade Spring Tribe alone already exceeded by fourfold the combined All Living Beings’ Will Power gained from the previous two tribes, and it was still climbing.
At this current rate of increase, it was already close to the total amount of All Living Beings’ Will Power he had obtained over the past fifteen or sixteen years.
Wuy Youu couldn’t quite understand why this surge of All Living Beings’ Will Power was growing so violently.
Fifteen minutes later, as Ye Zhen slowly spread his arms and pressed down in the air, the more than one hundred thousand people of the Jade Spring Tribe instantly became utterly silent.
"You are the most loyal believers of the Heavenly God. The Heavenly God will never abandon you!
Next, you must proactively carry out self‑rescue, maintain order, and do your best to search for more food. However, you need not worry. I, this Divine Envoy, have already gathered a large amount of food, which will be distributed to you in the future to help you through this difficult period.
All right, there are still great numbers of the Heavenly God’s people waiting for me to save them. I must leave now..."
No one made a noise. All the Sha Clan people of the Jade Spring Tribe respectfully knelt facing the direction in which Ye Zhen departed, and only after Ye Zhen had been gone from their sight for a long time did they rise again.
The shock in Wuy Youu’s heart was beyond description.
Five times!
After that peak of growth just now, the All Living Beings’ Will Power the Jade Spring Tribe had contributed to him exceeded by tenfold the combined All Living Beings’ Will Power the previous two tribes had given him—and even now, it was still steadily increasing.
In other words, in just this brief span, the All Living Beings’ Will Power contributed to him by the Jade Spring Tribe had already surpassed the total he had obtained in the past twenty years.
In the past twenty years, the total All Living Beings’ Will Power Wuy Youu had gained amounted to no more than a drop the size of a soybean.
But now, he had received that much in just an hour.
Converted out, the All Living Beings’ Will Power contributed by a single tribe like the Jade Spring Tribe was ten times what a single tribe had contributed before.
Wuy Youu was very clear about the reason for such a huge difference.
For the first two tribes, he had driven those tribes’ Sha Clan people away; but for this tribe, at Ye Zhen’s request, the people of the Jade Spring Tribe had personally watched Ye Zhen display a Divine Miracle.
Before this, Wuy Youu had also thought about this issue, but he hadn’t expected the gap to be this enormous.
And this was only one tribe.
If the following tribes were all handled this way, letting all those Sha Clan people personally witness Divine Envoy Ye display Divine Miracles, then how much All Living Beings’ Will Power would Wuy Youu reap?
When he did the math, Wuy Youu felt a shudder run through his whole body.
Because that number was simply too great.
Under Wuy Youu’s jurisdiction, there were seven thousand four hundred tribes. Of those, seven thousand one hundred tribes needed disaster relief.
If each tribe, like the Jade Spring Tribe, could supply Wuy Youu with an amount of All Living Beings’ Will Power equivalent to his total harvest over the past twenty years, then that total would be...
One hundred and forty thousand years!
Equivalent to accumulating, at his previous collection speed, All Living Beings’ Will Power for one hundred and forty thousand years!
He, Wuy Youu, had only lived for a few thousand years, and even Grand Priest Nahar had only lived for thirty to forty thousand years.
And this figure was calculated based on a tribe size of just over a hundred thousand; under his rule there were quite a few large and medium‑sized tribes as well.
In an instant, Wuy Youu understood Ye Zhen’s intention.
Ye Zhen’s so‑called speculation was actually about how much All Living Beings’ Will Power Wuy Youu could obtain under this same circumstance.
Now, Ye Zhen already had the answer.
However, Ye Zhen did not speak. He merely closed his eyes and sat cross‑legged in the sling chair on Qinglian’s back, quietly resting and recovering from his earlier expenditure.
The one who was anxious instead was the Sand Sea Divine Priest, Wuy Youu.
Originally, Wuy Youu thought that after getting the result, Ye Zhen would definitely say something to him, or take the opportunity to persuade him, so that he, Wuy Youu, would order the Sha Clan people of the following tribes to return to their tribes and watch Ye Zhen display his Divine Miracle.
If Ye Zhen had said that, Wuy Youu would definitely have agreed.
Because in the situation just now, Ye Zhen had obtained the control over the Jade Spring Tribe, but in fact, his own authority as Sand Sea Divine Priest Wuy Youu had also been strengthened.
This was somewhat like a redistribution of power.
Before this, Wuy Youu’s dominance over the Jade Spring Tribe was one hundred percent.
But now, among those who controlled the Jade Spring Tribe, another person named Ye Zhen had been added.
When Ye Zhen appeared, Ye Zhen could control the Jade Spring Tribe one hundred percent, but if Ye Zhen was absent, Wuy Youu still maintained his dominance over the Jade Spring Tribe.
Wuy Youu felt that this was much better than purely losing control over all the tribes under his rule as before.
Moreover, at this time, another thought had already faintly surfaced in Wuy Youu’s heart, only he still could not voice it now, nor could he be sure of it.
After serving as Sand Sea Divine Priest for so many years, Wuy Youu had not done it for nothing.
But the deadly thing was, they were almost at the next tribe, and Ye Zhen still hadn’t opened his mouth.
In the eyes of these Sand Sea Divine Priests, All Living Beings’ Will Power was incomparably precious.
To leave ten times the All Living Beings’ Will Power unclaimed and only collect an amount that was one-tenth of that of the Jade Spring Tribe—this, Wuy Youu absolutely could not tolerate.
After hesitating for a long time, Wuy Youu simply decided to act first and report later, and directly sent out a Talisman Communication order, commanding the Priests of the next tribe to have the evacuated Sha Clan people return to the tribal gathering ground in the shortest time possible.
minutes later, just as Ye Zhen had rushed to the next tribe to perform disaster relief, the corner of his mouth curved slightly. This Priest Wuy, it seemed, was not stupid after all.
"Priest Wuy, I already promised you before that I would only test this on one tribe! You can’t make me go back on my word. Quick, quickly have the Sha Clan people here evacuate, we should also avoid it first," Ye Zhen said on purpose.
"Don’t......"
Wuy Youu’s old face was about to cry, and he helplessly grabbed Ye Zhen, ready to open his mouth and beg.
He understood very well that since Ye Zhen had made that proposal, he definitely knew all the changes. After testing out the result, he had not spoken since, obviously waiting for him, Wuy Youu, to speak up.
Yet Wuy Youu, faced with such a vast amount of All Living Beings’ Will Power, had lost all resistance.
All of a sudden, Wuy Youu felt a bit of hatred for Sand Sea Divine Priest Xiao Ze.
If Sand Sea Divine Priest Xiao Ze had not stirred up trouble and deliberately targeted Ye Zhen, he would not have ended up in such an awkward situation now.
Even less would he have lost the massive All Living Beings’ Will Power from the previous two tribes—that was a full two drops of All Living Beings’ Will Power.
For the first time, Wuy Youu felt that Xiao Ze was unreliable in doing things and shortsighted in his vision.
Looking at Wuy Youu’s helpless and embarrassed expression, Ye Zhen actually had the urge to laugh.
Ye Zhen had long anticipated Wuy Youu’s situation.
This was also the result of Ye Zhen’s recent research on the allocation method of All Living Beings’ Will Power.
Previously, Ye Zhen had studied it. The method of allocating All Living Beings’ Will Power was extremely complicated, but it was not completely without patterns.
First, one had to start with how the believers worshiped.
The first way was to go to the Temple or Divine Temple to worship the enshrined statues.
In such a situation, among all the statues enshrined in a Temple, depending on their different statuses, they would receive different amounts of All Living Beings’ Will Power.
For example, in the tribal Divine Temples under Wuy Youu’s jurisdiction, three statues were enshrined respectively, those of the Yizhi Sand Sea Sky God, Grand Priest Nahar, and Sand Sea Divine Priest Wuy Youu.
Under normal circumstances, as the supreme Heavenly God of the Yizhi Temple lineage, the Yizhi Sand Sea Sky God would obtain the largest share of All Living Beings’ Will Power, then Grand Priest Nahar would be second, and Sand Sea Divine Priest Wuy Youu would receive the least.
This was also why previously, after a whole year, Wuy Youu could only obtain a rice-grain-sized bit of All Living Beings’ Will Power. In fact, as Sand Sea Divine Priest, Wuy Youu would from time to time display Divine Miracles, show some means, maintain his authority, and harvest All Living Beings’ Will Power.
But under this allocation model, what Wuy Youu received was the least, probably not even one-tenth.
In the previous two tribes, the reason why Ye Zhen, the Divine Envoy who specifically displayed the Divine Miracle, had practically not obtained any All Living Beings’ Will Power at all was precisely because of this.
Because most Sha Clan people believed that those Divine Miracles were bestowed by the Heavenly God; no one knew they were done by Ye Zhen.
After they went to the Divine Temple and devoutly worshiped, the ones who actually received the All Living Beings’ Will Power were, naturally, the three statues enshrined in the Divine Temple.
The reason why in the first two tribes Wuy Youu still obtained, in a single stroke, as much All Living Beings’ Will Power as he usually would in a year, despite his small share,
was mainly because these Sha Clan people, having suffered disaster, had fallen into despair.
When a person receives help in utter despair, the gratitude is incomparable.
Only believers who have suffered endless hardships can become Fanatics and offer even more All Living Beings’ Will Power.
When an entire tribe faces annihilation and is then saved, the All Living Beings’ Will Power they contribute will naturally erupt to a terrifying degree.
This was the distribution situation of All Living Beings’ Will Power in the first two tribes: Yizhi Heavenly God took the largest share, Nahar a smaller share, Wuy Youu the least—one-tenth—and Ye Zhen got none.
However, when the Divine Miracle was displayed in the third tribe, the Jade Spring Tribe, the method was different, so the allocation ratio of All Living Beings’ Will Power was also different.
