Chapter 1853 1,750, Lack Of Faith
“TSK tsk, the cult master’s resentment towards the Saintess is really great!”
“If I were the cult master, I would naturally wish for the Saintess to die in White Dragon Mountain forever. However, the SAINTESS controls the cult master’s life and death, so I’m afraid I have no choice but to go!”
“If the SAINTESS were to break that shackle before her death, I’m afraid the sect leader would also shatter and die.”
The words in their hearts did not escape Su Yu’s ears at all.
The Saintess held the shackle? In control of the sect leader’s life?
This was an unexpected discovery.
However, how could a mere peak overlord Saintess easily control the sect leader’s life and death?
“Sect leader is wise. The SAINTESS holds the Moon Worship Sect’s supreme artifact, the black moon god wheel. Her life will be safe for a short period of time. There’s no need for you to be anxious, sect leader.”Protector Bai Li complimented.
A bunch of bootlicking bastards!
The veins on Su Yu’s forehead were throbbing non-stop. The one who died wasn’t you, right?
Of course, the one who died wouldn’t be Su Yu.
No matter how that Holy Maiden controlled the life and death of the Moon Worship sect leader, she wouldn’t be able to control Su Yu’s head.
However, if he really ignored it, his identity as the sect leader would arouse suspicion.
His life was controlled, yet he was still able to remain calm. No matter how muddle-headed protector Bai Li and the others were, they should have noticed his abnormality.
Moreover, the last place where the emperor’s killing sword appeared was the White Dragon Mountain Range, right?
According to the information he had found, after the emperor’s killing sword escaped to the White Dragon mountain range, it had completely disappeared without a trace.
It was unknown whether it was hidden in the white dragon mountain range or somewhere else.
He had long planned to personally head to the White Dragon Mountain Range to investigate.
At the moment, he was saving the Saintess at the same time.
“Sect master, it has been a year since the Black Moon Divine Pool was opened. If we don’t absorb it, we might waste it. Do you think we should gather the higher-ups of the sect to prepare and absorb it?”The Transparent Protector’s eyes flashed with an obscure fervor.
The higher-ups of the sect yearned for the absorption of faith every month.
However, the sect master had gone into seclusion for an entire year, which made them extremely worried.
Su Yu rubbed the token key in his arms, and his eyes were slightly warm.
He was also somewhat curious about how powerful the faith power of the Moon worship cult was.
“Gather the higher-ups, and we’ll open the Black Moon Divine Lake Tomorrow.”Su Yu waved his sleeve and immediately made a decision.
Not long after returning to the bedroom, princess ru Chen heard the news and came over.
“Brother Su Yu, you’ve been in seclusion for too long this time, right?”Princess ru Chen’s pretty face relaxed slightly.
For a year, Su Yu had been in seclusion. She was afraid that she would accidentally expose herself and be on tenterhooks.
Now that Su Yu had returned, it was as if she had found her master.
Su Yu smiled and sized her up, frowning slightly.
In the past, when she had probed her soul, she couldn’t feel anything strange in her soul. But now that her soul was strong, with a casual look, she found that there was indeed something unusual about her soul.
In the depths of her soul sea, there was a faint dark red line, which was deeply integrated into the depths of her soul and grew together with her soul.
One existed and one was destroyed.
“Soul symbiosis body?”Su Yu was secretly surprised.
Recently, he had some understanding of the soul, and only then did he know that there was such a special soul in the world.
Two kinds of souls were born to be one body, and they controlled each other’s bodies.
Looking at the current situation, Princess Ru Chen’s soul was far stronger than Ling Long’s, so most of the time, it was princess ru Chen who dominated.
“Ling Long’s existence is more or less a hidden danger.”Su Yu’s eyes revealed a thoughtful look.
Not to mention the day she woke up again, she would take away the emperor’s killing sword, and she would also threaten Su Yu’s life.
Just her existence alone would pose a threat to princess ru Chen.
As far as he knew, the soul symbiosis body wouldn’t exist forever. Usually, when one soul became completely powerful, it would suppress the other soul forever.
Although Princess Linglong’s soul was weak, it was far more refined than dust. It was only a matter of time before it suppressed Princess Ruchen.
He had promised Dongfang Xia that he would treat Princess Ruchen well, so naturally, he wouldn’t go back on his words.
Thinking of this, he could not help but take out a dragon-shaped necklace.
After some research, it was discovered that this was a protective magic treasure personally crafted by Dongfang Xia. It had two great divine abilities, one for offense and one for defense.
An attack was Dongfang Xia’s full-force attack. Any powerful double-crowned king would die without a doubt. If the triple-crowned king was accidentally ambushed, there was a high chance of death.
Defense was the full-force defense of the triple-crowned king. As long as it was not too powerful, the triple-crowned King’s attack could also be blocked.
One Dragon and one Phoenix were two in total, which consumed a lot of Dongfang Xia’s primal energy.
Otherwise, Dongfang Xia wouldn’t have fallen into a disadvantageous position when he fought with the moon worship sect master that day.
He had always blamed Dongfang Xia for being a poor parent.
Therefore, it would be best if he could find a way to get rid of or suppress Princess Linglong’s soul to relieve Ruchen of his worries.
However, before she could do so, the safest way was to strengthen Princess Ruchen’s own soul power.
The stronger she was, the less likely Princess Linglong would be able to make a name for herself.
“Tomorrow, I will open the Black Moon Divine Pool. You can come with me. If the power of faith is good for your cultivation, you can try it together.”
Princess Ruchen had been here for a year, and she could not find out much about the power of faith, both in the open and in the dark. It was very magical.
It was said that she could absorb the power of faith and cultivate ten times faster than ordinary people.
The moon worship sect rose overnight because of the power of faith.
If she could absorb the power of faith, her cultivation might also increase rapidly.
The next morning, the Guardian elders and the missionary elders were all waiting in the main hall of the cult master.
Su Yu came a little late with the cult master’s wife.
“Greetings to the cult master and the cult master’s Wife!”Many elders greeted respectfully.
“No need for formalities! The Black Moon divine pool hasn’t been opened for a year. All elders, follow me.”Su Yu led everyone to the forbidden area of the main altar, a huge cave built deep underground.
From the entrance of the cave to the forbidden area, there was a guard every ten steps. They guarded the area all year round, not allowing anyone to get close. The guards were very strict.
In the depths of the cave, there was a huge spirit pool made of unknown black material. There was a thick stone door blocking the entrance.
Su Yu tried to enter with his soul, but he was bounced back.
Even with his current soul power, he could not penetrate the stone door. It was obvious how sturdy the stone door was.
Even if the three crowns king tried to force it, he might not be able to break the stone door open.
There was a keyhole on the stone door, which was just in time to deal with Su Yu’s token key.
With anticipation, Su Yu took out the key and opened it.
Suddenly, a rich and mysterious power rushed towards him.
What he saw was a spiritual pool suspended in the air. The pool was filled with black air currents. The air currents gathered together and condensed into a water-like fluid.
A powerful power of faith erupted from the pool.
In an instant, Su Yu seemed to see countless devout believers kneeling in front of the Black Moon statue and kowtowing.
Strands of faith were stripped from their bodies and gathered in the statue, then transferred to the pool through the statue.
All the power of faith in the entire moon worship sect’s territory was gathered here.
The moon worship sect’s higher-ups behind were already unable to endure the thirst.
“All of you go.”Following Su Yu’s order, everyone pounced in, greedily and happily absorbing the power of faith.
They competed with each other to be one step behind others.
Princess Ru Chen was also envious, but Su Yu didn’t move. She didn’t act rashly.
Su Yu narrowed his eyes and stared at everyone’s every move.
Those usually calm protectors were like crazy in front of the power of faith. They were extremely excited.
“Is this really faith?”Su Yu was suspicious.
True faith should make people more devout, but the protectors had turned into Thirsty Beasts.
His eyes flashed as he observed everyone’s bodies.
After discovering that the power of faith had entered their bodies, it immediately turned into the divine power they needed and rapidly increased their cultivation.
The more they absorbed, the more they improved.
It seemed to be no problem!
However, Su Yu always believed that the Heavenly Dao was only balanced.
The Heavenly Dao was to make up for what was lost.
Such an overbearing way to improve one’s cultivation must have hidden dangers.
Sure enough, Su Yu suddenly sensed something. After looking carefully, he was surprised to find that although the power of faith that had fused into their bodies had turned into divine power, an extremely small part of it had turned into something else, it entered their souls.
Protector Bai Li had absorbed the most power of faith. In his soul, there was a layer of transparent bugs that ordinary souls could not detect.
They attached themselves to his soul and greedily absorbed the essence of his soul.
Looking at the translucent protector, the other four protectors and hundreds of missionary elders were all the same.
In their soul divine crystals, there were bugs gnawing at them!
The most serious was protector Bai Li. The soul divine crystals were almost crawling with bugs, and there were several layers densely packed together.
Seeing this scene, Su Yu’s scalp went numb, and his heart trembled.
As expected, nothing was easy in this world.
That method of absorbing the power of faith did indeed have endless hidden dangers.
Protector Bai Li and the others had only cultivated for a short period of time, and in addition, their souls grew along with their cultivation for a short period of time, so they didn’t feel the obvious loss of the essence of their souls.
However, once their cultivation stagnated for a long period of time, the speed of the insects’gnawing would far exceed the growth of their souls. At that time, there would be a big problem.
Either their minds would be damaged and reduced to beasts, or their souls would be devoured bit by bit and become walking corpses.
Fortunately, Su Yu had been in seclusion for a year. In the Great Void Mystic Cave, he was absorbed into his body by the colorful divine light. The level of his eyes when looking at his soul was much higher than before.
Otherwise, he would have absorbed the power of faith without knowing the reason, and there would be endless trouble in the future.
Princess ru Chen could not hold it in any longer and pulled Su Yu’s sleeve, “Shall we go too?”
It would be fine if he did not know, but since he knew, how could he push princess ru Chen into the fire pit?
However, when he caught a glimpse of the dark red symbiotic soul in the depths of her soul, he had a plan.
His eyes flashed and two silver flames flew out, turning into a Firebird.
With a sharp screech, the Firebird burrowed into protector Bai Li’s Soul Divine Crystal and ate an invisible bug in one bite.
After eating, the Firebird’s lively eyes revealed traces of excitement, as if it especially liked this kind of bug.
A trace of a smile flashed across the corner of Su Yu’s mouth.
“Mm, you can go, but you have to bring this silver firebird with you.”Su Yu casually waved his hand, and the Firebird flew back into his palm.
Princess ru Chen looked at it curiously. “What is this thing?”
“Something to protect your life! Close your eyes.”
Princess ru Chen closed her eyes strangely and allowed the Silver Firebird to enter her soul and protect her mind.
“Okay, you can absorb the power of faith to your heart’s content.”
