Harry recounted the entire process of how Odin spread his faith among them.
Odin did not approach Harry directly at first.
Instead, he appeared among the lower-level evolutionary beings.
When these evolutionary beings encountered danger during their hunts, Odin would appear and save them, telling them that by sincerely chanting his divine name, they would receive his help.
As time passed, more and more evolutionary beings received Odin's assistance.
Odin's divine name began to enter the hearts of many evolutionary beings in Weil.
At this time, Harry himself almost died during a hunt. Fortunately, Odin appeared in time and saved him.
Henceforth, the great temples of Weil began to enshrine statues of Odin.
Qin Shilei spoke again, asking, "Was it Odin who told you to withhold the tribute?"
Harry shook his head, "No, it was one of my subordinates who suggested it."
However, Qin Shilei harbored several doubts.
When Odin first appeared in the Weil Empire, he clearly manifested in countless avatars in various places simultaneously.
But from the information obtained from Odin's avatar just now, he did not discover that Odin possessed the ability to split into multiple avatars without the power of believers' faith.
The second point was, there were still countless territories on Blue Star that could develop believers, so why did Odin specifically choose his territory?
From the incident with Shiva of Tianzhu, most of the survivors on Blue Star should know that King Qin An is not only a person who disrespected deities but also capable of killing divine avatars and severing divine faith.
When there were clearly better choices, why would he choose a hard bone like Qin Shilei?
Qin Shilei looked up and instructed Harry, "Summon the person who gave you the idea."
Soon, a short, stout middle-aged man was brought over.
Qin Shilei asked, "Why did you suggest that Harry withhold the tribute?"
The middle-aged man said in a daze, "What? I never told the King to withhold the tribute!"
Harry immediately became agitated, "Allen, you clearly told me a lot of reasons a while ago for saving the tribute to develop the temple. Why do you deny it now?"
The middle-aged man said incredulously, "How is that possible? King Qin An is now the number one person on Blue Star. Withholding tribute would surely anger him. Why would we do something so thankless?"
"Enough."
Qin Shilei waved his hand, stopping Harry's attempt to argue, and instructed, "Go, smash all the statues of Odin in the temple, and order that Odin's name shall never be mentioned again."
"Yes!" Harry could only bow and agree, then turned and walked out of the great hall.
Qin Shilei gently stroked his chin.
He had a feeling that there was a conspiracy hidden here.
Qin Shilei took out the Mountain and River Map from his Qiankun Ring and input his vital energy to activate it.
Soon, a three-dimensional map appeared before him, with some small green dots but no red dots.
This indicated that there were no Platinum-level or higher experts nearby.
At that time, the avatars that appeared in Weil were not displayed on the Mountain and River Map.
Either the other party could evade the surveillance of the Mountain and River Map, or they deliberately maintained a Golden-level cultivation, which was why they did not appear as red markers on the map.
It was highly possible that someone had deliberately orchestrated all of this, hoping to create a conflict between himself and deities like Odin and Hela.
Was it a strong individual from another world or a hidden schemer?
As Qin Shilei pondered these matters, he heard a fierce commotion outside the palace.
He concentrated and listened, which caused him to frown.
"Hmph!"
Qin Shilei snorted coldly, "Does he really think I'm a knight brimming with justice!"
He flashed out of Harry's palace.
Outside the palace, countless layers of densely packed evolutionary beings were gathered, shouting and protesting.
"Faith is freedom, it is our spiritual sustenance, our hope for survival, you cannot take away our faith!"
"We implore His Royal Highness King Qin An to respect our faith!"
"We respect and are grateful to His Royal Highness King Qin An, but Odin the Divine Venerable is also our spiritual solace. We hope His Royal Highness King Qin An will not destroy our faith!"
"We would rather die than lose the faith in our hearts!"
Qin Shilei glanced at the crowd before the entrance and suddenly unleashed his aura completely.
An intimidating aura erupted like a hurricane, sweeping towards the crowd.
"Pfft!"
Within a radius of several kilometers, all the survivors could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood and then fall to their knees.
"Hmph!"
Qin Shilei snorted coldly, then transformed into a hundred-meter-tall giant.
With one step, he rushed towards the temple not far away.
Boom, boom, boom!
The hard concrete ground was imprinted with massive footprints.
Soon, he arrived in front of the temple.
A group of clergy members were constantly trying to persuade Harry.
Harry was about to use his royal authority to order these clergy members to leave immediately when he heard a massive sound of footsteps approaching from behind.
Then he felt darkness descend upon him. He turned his head and saw that King Qin An had somehow transformed into a giant and had taken out that enormous sword.
Harry's heart trembled. He ignored his subordinates and the clergy members opposite him and turned to flee into the distance.
Heaven-Shattering Sword Strike!
A massive sword shadow, thousands of meters long, formed above Qin Shilei's head.
Then, with an unstoppable aura, it cleaved down towards the temple below.
Boom!
A vast chasm appeared where the temple once stood, and the temple itself had vanished.
The clergy members of the temple had also disappeared.
"Those who dare to believe in Odin shall die!"
The rolling sound waves spread throughout the entire city.
All the survivors in the city heard the word "die" echoing in their ears, and in their minds was the towering sword shadow!
Qin Shilei turned his head and glanced at Harry, whom he had intentionally spared. "I give you three days. If there is still anyone in Weil who believes in Odin by then, then Weil will cease to exist."
With that, he transformed into a phantom and vanished from the spot.
As Qin Shilei flew out of the city, he sent a message on the chat channel.
"This is Qin Shilei, and I solemnly declare that the sphere of influence of Da Xia does not welcome any deities!"
"Anyone who dares to sow discord in my territory will be killed without mercy!"
"Those who wish to receive the protection of deities, please leave my territory, or you will be killed without mercy!"
This was followed by an extremely brief video.
The video was of Qin Shilei transforming into a giant, shattering the temple with a single sword strike, and creating a trench thousands of meters long.
Hearing Qin Shilei's domineering and murderous words, seeing the soul-stirring sword shadow and the long trench.
The chat channel paused for three seconds.
Then, it began to scroll rapidly.
"Boss Qin is so domineering, truly worthy of being my idol!"
"Who can survive this strike?"
"It's been months since we've heard any news from Boss Qin, and I've missed him dearly. Today's strike fills me with endless longing!"
"Boss Qin, I want to have your babies. I only hope our children can have half your ability."
