Chapter 658 - 311: Faith! Task Phase 3 Unlocked!

So...

How did Ye Mingqiu discover it?

The answer is: It was unintentionally triggered by Yuan Chu.

As the first believer, Yuan Chu always had an extraordinary reverence for the Lord of Light and Shadow. In her view, the Lord of Light and Shadow was the omniscient and omnipotent Supreme God, so it was not surprising that He possessed any kind of power.

That day, before her daily prayers, she watched the sunrise for a long time and thought the Lord of Light and Shadow was like the sun, possessing the power of great light, which influenced her mindset during prayer and tilted her guidance slightly towards the direction of the Fiery Sun.

Thus, after receiving the blessing, she happened to gain some of the Fiery Sun Attribute empowerment.

Looking at the fire burning in her hand, Yuan Chu was shocked, Yuan Chu was confused, Yuan Chu was at a loss, Yuan Chu blamed herself.

Oh my God! So my Lord has this kind of power too? And I had no idea, completely unaware of such a thing! Oh heavens!

As a believer, I am still too inadequate!

After a brief moment to calm down, Yuan Chu’s daily practice added the cultivation of Fiery Sun power.

....

"Unfortunately, the Lord of Light and Shadow title can only amplify the strength of Light and Shadow Attribute. If it could also amplify the Fiery Sun Attribute, that would be great," Ye Mingqiu sighed in his heart.

The power of blessing would look at the god’s attribute characteristics, but a title is just a title; it cannot grant a Fiery Sun boost just because he acquired the powers of the Fiery Sun series.

However, the problem is not significant, as titles are not set in stone.

As long as one has enough worldly performance, they can acquire the corresponding title. Ye Mingqiu’s positioning in this world is the Lord of the Fierce Sun, so as long as his performance is outstanding enough, he can get this title and gain this power.

[Power of Faith +5]

[Power of Faith +6]

[Power of Faith +4]

....

Soon, the Spirit Realm’s notification sounds of increased Power of Faith rang continuously.

"Very fast indeed."

Ye Mingqiu whispered with a smile.

The Archbishop’s efficiency was so high, it must have been that everything was already arranged, and not that arrangements were made after negotiations.

After acquiring the Power of Faith, he converted the Power of Faith into blessings and bestowed them upon every believer.

....

Meanwhile, in a certain prayer room

Twenty believers kneeled and prayed to the statue of the Lord of the Fierce Sun, while the bishop of the Starlight Church sub-branch observed the situation with two priests and five Holy Knights to prevent any accidents.

"Bishop, do you think this..."

"Shut up!"

The bishop interrupted directly, turning around and glaring at the speaking Holy Knight with an extremely serious expression.

Compared to the naive Holy Knights, he had an understanding of the world’s reality, and he knew the taboos of the Lord of the Fierce Sun, so there was no way he would let his subordinates speak carelessly. If something really happened, it would be terrible.

Sigh!

Acting too amiably usually and being too close to these guys have this downside. If I were a more authoritative type of bishop, perhaps they wouldn’t dare talk to me at such times.

"How are the changes on them?"

The bishop turned to ask a priest.

At this moment, the priest was observing the believers through a special ceremony and recording the situation through the numerical changes on a stone.

He stared at the stone block and answered, "The efficiency of these people’s strength improvement is very high. The conversion speed of faith is very fast, better than expected."

"Hmm."

The bishop responded and said, "Organize the detailed information and report it to higher-ups. The more detailed, the better, without any omissions."

"Yes."

...

Simultaneously, similar situations were happening in many different places. In countless prayer rooms of various provinces, a large number of believers turned to worship the Lord of the Fierce Sun.

Smiles adorned their faces, the powerful force surging inside them, and the feeling of becoming stronger made them delighted. Compared to worshiping the Star God, the enhancement obtained from worshiping the Lord of the Fierce Sun was clearly more significant, and the speed was even more than just a bit faster.

In a secret room, the Archbishop looked at the data from various places, and an expression of satisfaction slowly appeared on his face. He murmured, "This guy is truly impressive, to have arranged such a high ratio from the beginning, the improvement efficiency even surpasses four times that of the Star God, he really spared no expense."

"Four times.... It’s really a pity...."

Beside him, the Silent Council’s High Priest of Heart, Elias, watched the data before him, his breathing quickened, even beginning to consider shifting his faith to the Lord of the Fierce Sun, and he did so without much mental burden.

After all, the Star God had never existed from the start, his faith was always based on a lie, so the transition of faith didn’t require much burden. Moreover, the Lord of the Fierce Sun he would worship could be considered the true intent of the Star God, rather than a deceased remnant.

But unfortunately, he had already stood against the Lord of the Fierce Sun. Although there was no direct malice, having once competed with a deity meant it was very difficult to reach the highest peak of faith.

The contention with the Lord of the Fierce Sun would become a stumbling block on his path of faith. If it were just shallow faith, it wouldn’t matter much, but if he wanted to use this path to reach the peak, what he had done before would have a significant impact.

If it were just this, it wouldn’t be insurmountable, but the more terrifying thing was, they had to continue contending with the Lord of the Fierce Sun, and they had to do it knowing that the other side was a Divinity.

If they didn’t do this, the safety of the world would be harder to guarantee. They didn’t want to take that risk, because if they did so, their obstacles would transform into stronger shackles, making it difficult to reach higher peaks on this path.

"No need to dwell on it. As long as we succeed in saving this world, you and I have completed our initial goal and dream, haven’t we?" said the High Priest of Spiritual Essence, Seraphina, with a smile.
