The sheer volume of text that appeared on the divine tablet this time opened Ji Xiang's eyes, and the associated terms for the Christ's Law were indeed numerous:
"Witness is the most important Law of Vow in the Christ's Law, referring to those who testify during covenants or judgments. There must be two or more, then the vow is established, the Law takes effect, and it can be passed down continuously."
"The one who is witnessed, carrying the vow, goes to witness others who have not been witnessed. Then the vow can be transmitted, generating new vows. One begets two, two begets three, to infinity. All the glory obtained by vows through witnessing will eventually return to God the Father. God the Father is the one who witnesses the birth of vows and provides four types of feedback."
"The Law of Witness has strict regulations. In the Christ's Law, the Ten Commandments prohibit bearing false witness. If a person bears false witness, they will be severely punished. The Lord's Prayer - in the Old Testament, it is said that if no one serves as a witness, stones can be used, but an agreement must be made with the stones. This is another important Law of Vow - 'Covenant'!"
"The art of covenant is said to originate from an agreement between God and man."
"In the Law of Witness, God witnessed the birth of Adam, Adam witnessed the birth of Eve, and Eve witnessed the birth of Cain. The source of vows lies with God. All vows in the Christ's Law ultimately return to God."
"Witness of the Heavenly Man Adam obtained (182nd generation)! When you perceive someone doing evil, recite the ninth commandment of the Ten Commandments, reject or stop their evil deeds, and perform 'non-witness'."
"If one performs good deeds (including repentance, forgiveness, sudden enlightenment, etc.), then 'witness' is performed. One can obtain a good deed (requiring a third party to be present as a second witness), and based on the number of witnesses present, several vows will be generated (if the Law of Covenant is learned, a 'Divine-Human Covenant' will be completed)."
"The performance of the Law of Witness typically requires becoming at least a nominal believer in Christianity. When vows gather, for every hundred vows, one receives a 'Blessing' from 'Christ'. When vows gather to six hundred, one receives 'Grace' from 'Christ'. When vows gather to one thousand two hundred, one receives a 'Miracle' from 'Christ'."
"Nominal believers can only use Blessings, believers can use Grace, and missionaries can use Miracles."
"Blessings: such as flashes of inspiration when confused, sudden luck when encountering misfortune, solutions when experiencing illness, guidance when lost..."
"Grace: there are seven Graces: not to be condemned, belonging to God, strength, freedom, assimilation with God, peace without hardship, abundant living."
"Miracles: turning the absolutely impossible into the absolutely possible, turning doomed failure into destined success, turning a situation of certain death into a situation of certain life."
"If the 'Law of Covenant' is learned, one can use the 'Law of Promise' within the Law of Vow, thereby obtaining a 'Divine Promise'."
Ji Xiang's eyes reflected these descriptions, and he fell into a brief contemplation.
These blessings and miracles were somewhat outrageous, but his Great Ming was still superior. Not only could heavenly gods bestow blessings, but if you encountered the Emperor, and he was displeased, you might even be 'bestowed death'…
It had to be said, foreign monks knew how to chant scriptures, and it seemed the most powerful aspect of the Christ's Law was that it set no upper limit on the realm of use. All power seemed to come from the feedback of that 'God the Father'.
However, the most peculiar thing was the basic usage of the Law of Witness…
When discovering a problem, one could use the phrase "I don't think so" to reflect it?
When discovering something good, one could use the phrase "I think it's fine" to get it for free?
"Christ, marvelous."
Ji Xiang couldn't help but praise, suppressing a chuckle, and his mind began to ponder.
To believe in Christ, of course not. Although the benefits in its methods were indeed very good, as the face of the gods of the Great Fulu Realm descending, how could Ji Xiang so easily become someone else's lackey?
The methods must be taken. If you don't give them, then I'll exploit the bugs.
A vow emerged from the book, like a wisp of qi. A white smoke billowed from Ji Xiang's body, startling those around him. Immediately, the white smoke enveloped the book and transformed into a wisp of smoke.
Ji Xiang opened his mouth and swallowed the vow smoke. As the vow entered his body, the blank divine tablet trembled on the spot, manifesting divine light within his inner landscape, capturing this vow!
As the saying goes:
If you find money on the ground that someone else intended to use for their life, don't worry. Pass by a temple and throw it into the merit box, letting Buddha deal with it.
Ji Xiang thought, I'll see if your Christ is more powerful, or if this blank divine tablet is stronger!
The form and spirit of Bai Mian Zhenwu were captured in the same way last time, and were directly devoured by the blank divine tablet!
As expected, the Adam vow was directly consumed by the blank divine tablet, but no text appeared. Instead, there was a slight pause.
Ji Xiang was puzzled. After more than ten breaths, a faint white light appeared in the center of the blank divine tablet, with what seemed to be a small window within the white light.
Only then did the blank divine tablet display text:
"Window of Witness: Exchange good deeds for the Law of Vow (Godhead of God the Father discovered)."
Ji Xiang was immediately very satisfied!
(So that's how it is, the Heavenly Window of Witness. This is a powerful application of vows. This witness window should only be visible and usable by believers, but now...)
Your spell is very good, and now it's mine - Master of Spell Stealing, Ji Xiang.
Of course, Ji Xiang also saw a clue about the connection between this item and the Japanese Book of Ghosts and Gods. The key lay in the method of transmitting vows. It seemed someone in Japan had cracked the Western arts and localized them, making vows return to God the Father, becoming vows returning to ghosts and gods?
Thus, the false ghosts and gods, sealed with national destiny, became real. Would the vows of these ghosts and gods after their deaths also feed back into national destiny?
Perhaps so!
Ji Xiang frowned, thinking that this method, along with the "Golden Crow Jade Rabbit Collection," now had a significant connection.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Matteo Ricci was very pleased with Ji Xiang's earlier praise. After all, their religious leader said their law was marvelous, wasn't that a golden signboard?
The priests who had come to the Great Ming now, having previously argued with others in the Indian region, added two chapters to the second edition of "True Records of God the Father." These two chapters criticized the Law of Shakyamuni Buddha…
The initial version did not have them. In fact, Matteo Ricci knew roughly that Father Ba, who went to Japan, did not seem to have the initial edition of "True Records of God the Father" in his hands… Alas, it wasn't entirely unjust to be hunted down; his own work was not done thoroughly.
At this moment, Matteo Ricci was completely unaware that his revered leader had been "freeloaded" by Ji Xiang. In terms of the level of freeloading, it might even be higher than that of himself, who had worked hard to spread the faith…
At this time, Ji Xiang told Matteo Ricci that he was going to see Zhao Shizhen and then left. Matteo Ricci wanted to follow, but Ji Xiang politely declined.
"You must not see this person. If Emperor Wanli finds out you met him, he might arrest you and treat you as a spy gathering military intelligence of the Great Ming!"
"We part ways here. We shall meet again in the future! Thank you for your book!"
Thank you for your spell, Amen, in front of the temple, a grapevine…
Ji Xiang packed the books and slung them over his shoulder, thinking that there were still many things he could "freeload" from within.
