Chapter 417: Upper Realm Descends

Yang Da listened attentively, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Yang Fan paused for a moment and continued,

"As a god, blindly exploiting and squeezing believers is ultimately just shortsighted."

"A truly powerful Divine Kingdom needs to design a reasonable system to let believers continuously grow relying on their own motivation."

"To make the Divine Kingdom form a virtuous cycle."

"Do you understand?"

At this moment, there was a bit more solemnity in Yang Fan's gaze toward Yang Da.

Between gods and believers, it seems to be an absolute control relationship.

But in reality, it is also a symbiotic relationship.

Now that Yang Fan had completed a Breakthrough to a First-Order God, he had long passed the days when he didn't even have Faith Points at the very beginning.

The area of the Divine Kingdom was getting larger and larger, and its internal system was becoming increasingly perfect.

What he needed to consider was no longer just how to obtain more resources, but how to make the entire Divine Kingdom possess the ability for sustainable development.

The stronger the believers were, the stronger he, the god, would be.

Of course, in this process, competition could still exist, strata could still exist, and a certain degree of raising Gu and elimination was still necessary.

But these means must serve the development of the Divine Kingdom, rather than simply being for exploitation.

A powerful Divine Kingdom inevitably requires classes.

Because only with the existence of classes would countless believers have goals and yearn to climb upward.

If all believers stood in the exact same position, they would instead gradually lose the motivation to move forward.

However, classes must not become rigid either.

Once the upward channel was completely closed and ordinary believers saw no hope, what would ultimately be born would only be a group of lives that had lost their fighting spirit and chosen to lie flat.

Today, Yang Fan's Divine Kingdom was extremely rich in resources.

As time passed, he had actually vaguely sensed some problems.

Some believers were beginning to show a trend of slackness.

After all, with the protection of high-tier believers and an adequate supply of resources, they didn't need to fight desperately like they did at the very beginning.

It was just that in the past, Yang Fan's Divine Kingdom had always been in a stage of rapid expansion, and these problems had all been covered up by war, development, and resource growth.

Now, he could just use the opportunity of this Secret Realm migration to readjust the Divine Kingdom's system.

Let all believers regain their competitive awareness.

Divine Kingdom management was inherently a profound discipline.

If the welfare was too poor and believers were excessively exploited, then believers would ultimately only turn into mindless slaves.

They might obey, but they would have no value.

But if the welfare was too good, with no pressure and no competition, allowing all believers to easily obtain everything,

That would be raising lazy people.

A truly good system should create pressure while giving hope.

Letting the weak have the opportunity to change their fate, and letting the strong have the motivation to continue climbing.

Only thus could the Divine Kingdom operate continuously and grow steadily.

"This subordinate obeys the Master's command."

Yang Da respectfully bowed.

After explaining the general direction of the Divine Kingdom's reforms, Yang Fan did not stay any longer. His consciousness slowly withdrew from the Divine Kingdom and returned to the real world.

At this moment, the villa remained peaceful and quiet.

Inside the Divine Kingdom, a massive reform involving hundreds of billions of believers had officially begun.

According to Yang Fan's orders, Yang Da and several Intelligent Life forms began to jointly formulate a detailed plan.

Soon, a Divine Decree descended.

[My Divine Kingdom, having developed through endless years, with its territory now expanding and believers multiplying, has reached a new stage.]

[The Great Migration of the Divine Kingdom is a grand plan concerning the future for tens of millions of years.]

[This migration is for the greater prosperity of the Divine Kingdom and for all believers to have a more brilliant future.]

[Anyone who hinders the development of the Divine Kingdom and refuses to execute the migration plan will be regarded as betraying the will of the Divine Kingdom and will be punished by the laws of the Divine Kingdom.]

[However, the god is merciful and cannot bear to mistreat any believer who has contributed to the Divine Kingdom.]

[During this migration, whoever performs exceptionally well, is loyal to the Divine Kingdom, and is willing to shoulder responsibilities will be bestowed with the title of "Divine Guards".]

[The Divine Guards come from among the believers and will represent the will of the numerous believers, jointly managing the Secret Realm with the Intelligent Life of the Divine Kingdom.]

[They will gain glory, and they will also shoulder responsibilities.]

[Everything is for the future of the Divine Kingdom.]

The mighty voice instantly resounded throughout the entire Divine Kingdom.

Countless believers looked up simultaneously at this moment.

They could not see the figure of the god, but they could clearly feel the majesty coming from the depths of their Souls.

Among the major Cultivate systems, those powerful high-tier believers only respectfully bowed toward the sky.

"We respectfully obey the Divine Decree."

After that, there were no other actions.

To them, this migration of the Divine Kingdom had little to do with them.

Believers above Foundation Establishment would not be included in the scope of this migration at all.

Those who truly needed to be migrated were those lower-strength Tier 5 Beings.

They were the primary targets of this Divine Kingdom adjustment.

At this moment, expressions of struggle appeared on the faces of a large number of low-tier believers.

They naturally understood that this reform would change their lives.

Entering the Secret Realm meant leaving the currently relatively comfortable environment.

Yet in the face of the Divine Decree, they could not truly resist.

In the end, one low-tier believer after another lowered their heads.

"We respectfully obey the Divine Decree!"

"I, Azhuo, am willing to become a staunch supporter of the Divine Kingdom's migration plan!"

"The god's will is the direction of our progress!"

Right at this moment, a pillar of pure white light suddenly descended from the sky.

It accurately enveloped Azhuo.

The next moment, Yang Da's voice resounded throughout the entire Divine Kingdom.

"Azhuo, loyal to the Divine Kingdom, actively responded to the migration plan."

"You are specially conferred as the first Divine Guard."

"Starting from today, enter Number One Secret Realm, and cooperate with the Intelligent Life to manage the believers in the Secret Realm."

"Specially rewarded with one Divinity Point."

Boom!

The entire Divine Kingdom instantly boiled over.

Countless believers looked in shock at that pillar of light.

Even within the Heavenly Court, those lofty Nascent Soul Realm powerhouses couldn't help but reveal a trace of envy in their gazes toward Azhuo.

That was a Divinity Point!

The currency belonging to the god.

For believers like them, it was incomparably precious.

An ordinary Tier 5 Being had unexpectedly obtained such glory and rewards simply by responding to the Divine Decree.

At this moment, the thoughts in the hearts of countless low-tier believers began to change.

"Long live the god!"

"May the Divine Kingdom endure forever!"

"We are willing to support the Great Migration plan of the Divine Kingdom!"

"Everything for the Divine Kingdom, everything for the god!"

A large number of believers began to shout fanatically.

They hoped their voices could be heard by the god.

They hoped the next pillar of light would descend upon themselves.

…

Ever since then, in the tenth year of the Divine Kingdom.

The number of low-tier believers who joined the migration plan had already reached as many as ten billion.

Among them, those who obtained the title of Divine Guard exceeded ten thousand people.

However, the migration of the Divine Kingdom was inherently a long process.

To make more believers actively accept change and at the same time make the entire plan more reasonable, several Intelligent Life forms, after consultation, began to further strengthen propaganda.

A large number of Divine Kingdom announcements began to spread.

"This is the 'Upper Realm Descends' movement."

"Everything for the development of the Divine Kingdom, everything for the future of all believers!"

"Although the Secret Realm environment is more arduous, precisely because of this, it can temper the will of the believers."

"As long as you are willing to Cultivate, endure hardship, and strive, one day, you will be able to return to the Main Divine Kingdom!"

"For the god, for the Divine Kingdom, for a more brilliant future, we are willing to dedicate ourselves!"
