Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Xiang Nan did not accept all the gods who came to him, such as Beth, Athena, Aphrodite, and Dionysus.

On the one hand, too many followers would affect his popularity; on the other hand, Xiang Nan had little contact with them, so it was not worth it to give them a free ride.

"It's not easy to be my follower." Xiang Nan said to these gods clearly, "What's the benefit of accepting you as follower gods?"

"I can provide you with wisdom and help you rule the world better." Athena, the goddess of wisdom, said.

"I am the most beautiful god in the world, and I can dedicate myself to you." Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty and love, said.

"I can brew the best wine for you, and bring you joy and happiness." Dionysus, the god of wine, said.

"I can play the most beautiful music for you, and no musician can compare to it." Beth, the god of music, also said.

In the end, Xiang Nan only kept Athena, the goddess of wisdom, and Beth, the god of music, but did not keep Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty and love, and Dionysus, the god of wine.

Because Athena's wisdom and Bess's music are valuable and can improve people's quality of life.

In comparison, Dionysus, the god of wine, only teaches people to eat, drink and have fun, while Aphrodite guides people to love beauty, both of which are contrary to Xiang Nan's teachings.

In fact, in Greek mythology, Dionysus's image has always been not very good, and he is regarded as the god of indulgence, revelry, and debauchery. Many female believers would go into the wilderness in groups during the Dionysian Festival, drinking, dancing, singing, and reveling...

And Aphrodite's love history is even richer. She is the wife of Hephaestus, the god of craftsmen, but she had an affair with Paul, the god of the sun, and was caught on the spot by Hephaestus.

Later, she gave birth to the hermaphrodite androgynous god Hermaphrodite with the messenger Hermes, gave birth to Eryx with the god of the sea Poseidon, gave birth to the three goddesses of beauty with Dionysus, and gave birth to Aeneas with the mortal Anchises...

In addition, she also fell in love with the beautiful boy Adonis. After Adonis was stabbed to death by the wild boar of the hunting goddess Artemis, his soul entered the underworld, and Persephone, the queen of the underworld, also fell in love with him.

Finally, he negotiated with Aphrodite, and each of them had him for half a year. Adonis accompanied Persephone in the underworld for half a year, and then accompanied Aphrodite for another half a year...

Such a goddess with a dissolute nature, no matter how beautiful she is, Xiang Nan disdains it.

...

Xiang Nan then officially announced the angel of wisdom Athena and the angel of music Beth.

Athena was also named "Vizier" by him, which means prime minister, responsible for helping him to participate in state affairs.

These two also gained incense.

In addition to Athena and Beth, Xiang Nan later successively accepted the goddess of abundance Demeter, the god of craftsmen Hephaestus, the three goddesses of fate Moira, etc.

However, the total number of angels did not exceed ten. After all, the incense is limited, and the bulk is still kept by Xiang Nan himself.

As for other gods, even if they took the initiative to surrender, Xiang Nan would treat them as heretics.

Therefore, gods like Anubis, the god of death, Horus, the god of the sky, Amon, the god of the sun, Poseidon, the god of the sea, Hades, the god of war, Ares, the god of the moon, etc., were all classified as evil.

Seeing that it was hopeless to surrender to Xiang Nan, these gods could only turn evil, bewitch, seduce, and win over Xiang Nan's believers.

As gods, it was naturally easy for them to crack the magic on Xiang Nan's roster, so they did succeed in winning over a group of believers, which brought some trouble to Xiang Nan's rule.

But it was just a trouble.

After all, their overall strength was not as good as Xiang Nan's now, and they could only do some small tricks in secret, and at most they could develop tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of believers.

After all, once they became big, it would be difficult not to be noticed.

...

Time passed another thousand years in the blink of an eye.

In a thousand years, Egypt's population has exceeded 1.3 billion, an increase of nearly 60% compared to a thousand years ago.

A 60% increase in a thousand years does not sound much, but we have to consider that the medical conditions at that time were very backward. Colds and fevers can kill people.

And Xiang Nan could not save everyone, so although people gave birth to more, they also died more. In a thousand years, it only increased by 60%.

But it's okay. Nowadays, there are no fertilizers, no pesticides, and no advanced agricultural machinery and equipment. The yield per unit area of ​​land has reached its peak and can no longer be increased.

In this case, too many people can easily lead to most people not having enough food and living a life of hunger and fullness. Therefore, it is necessary to balance life and death.

In this thousand years, maritime trade has also developed rapidly. People have invented large two-masted and three-masted sailing ships and achieved ocean voyages.

It is no longer a new thing to start from the Atlantic Ocean in Europe, enter the Indian Ocean through the Mediterranean, and then from the Indian Ocean to the Pacific Ocean.

And new continents such as southern Africa, South Asia, Southeast Asia, Australia, and America have been discovered, and many people have immigrated there.

No mistakes, please go to the 6-9 book forum!

After all, the New World is vast and sparsely populated, with a lot of undeveloped land that can support more people.

Over the past thousand years, Egypt and Middle-earth have also established extensive connections.

Today, the two countries have very frequent trade, and tea, silk, porcelain, etc. produced in Middle-earth are imported into Egypt on a large scale. And spices, jewelry, horses, etc. produced in Egypt are also imported into Middle-earth on a large scale.

In addition, Xiang Nan's sect was also imported into Middle-earth.

At first, many believers went there to do business and set up Xiang Nan's temple there. After the people of the Middle-earth came into contact with it, they thought this sect was good, so gradually some people began to believe in it.

To this day, Xiang Nan's believers account for more than 30% in the Middle-earth.

...

During this thousand years, Ansuna has also practiced the "Sacred Heart Sutra", and then began to learn the "Red Fire Divine Art" to enhance her physique.

After Xiang Nan's deduction, the "Red Fire Divine Art" already has twelve levels, the first nine levels are blue flame, red flame, and green beacon. The tenth level is the flame without form, the eleventh level is the earth fire Mingyi, and the twelfth level is the sky fire without limit.

When you practice to the eighth level, you can cultivate the primordial spirit; when you practice to the ninth level, you can already have an immortal primordial spirit; when you reach the tenth level, you can turn into nothingness; when you reach the twelfth level, you can almost become an immortal.

At that time, if you give her the godhood, she will basically be able to bear it.

And during this thousand years, Xiang Nan began to gradually absorb believers in his own kingdom.

Because the number of believers in his kingdom has exceeded 10 billion, and it is all crowded and shoulder to shoulder.

Even if his kingdom expands tenfold, it will still be very crowded.

And expanding the kingdom requires divine power, but expanding the kingdom tenfold will consume astronomical divine power, so it is better to devour them all.

This will not only enhance Xiang Nan's strength, but also make room for subsequent newcomers.

Therefore, in the past thousand years, Xiang Nan has devoured 30 billion souls, which is really not a small number. This also further strengthened Xiang Nan's strength, and it can even be said to have reached the pinnacle.
