Chapter 5068: The Importance of Reciprocity

Ves did not like deity cultivation.

The examples shown by his mother and the cultivation methods described by the numerous enlightenment fruits dangling from the Tree of Possibilities all emphasized the primary reason for his dislike.

The relationships between the 'deity' and its worshipers were too uneven!

Due to the considerable power imbalance between the two parties, the vastly more superior one held most if not all of the cards.

It was so easy for the deity to exploit its worshipers and demand them to give up much of what they possessed in value for a cultivator in exchange for paltry rewards.

In fact, a deity did not even have to do anything for its worshipers! The supposed god could simply sit back and continue to absorb faith or spiritual feedback while leaving its subjects completely in the dust!

"Even the more benign faiths tend to describe hands off relationships." Ves shook his head.
