229: Chapter 229: Not Many True Believers (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival) 229: Chapter 229: Not Many True Believers (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival) The Power of Faith was absorbed by the sphere, and after a short time, it was fed back to him. However, Zhao Guang found it strange that the sphere seemed to have absorbed something from the Power of Faith, but what its specific function was, Zhao Guang had no idea and couldn’t feel it either. Moreover, the power returned to him was not only not waste but instead even purer. This had surpassed the limit of refinement that his Faith Extraction Technique could achieve, at least beyond his current limits. Unable to understand what was going on, Zhao Guang decisively gave up thinking about it. Since it was useful, and he could not control it anyway, he could only accept it and enjoy it for now. This power was guided into his Sea of Consciousness, where it began to continuously friction with his Magic Power. For a Mage with pure Spiritual Power, using the Power of Faith was completely different from other mages. Other mages absorbed the Power of Faith and integrated it into their Magic Power to enhance their own Magic. But for a spiritual type Mage, the Power of Faith was actually a whetstone. By creating friction between the Power of Faith and his own Magic Power, they refined each other, ultimately stimulating his spiritual power to keep increasing. During this process, some of the pure power might be absorbed, but it would soon assimilate into his own. Thus, the path of pure Spiritual Power is the safest and most reliable Mage’s path. But its difficulty to traverse is also the greatest among Mages, unsurpassed by any other type. Gradually, this power was worn away by the friction, and his Magic Power visibly increased a bit. Although not much, if he were to achieve this through meditation, it would probably take more than a month to match. Zhao Guang continued to absorb, and after doing it three times, the Power of Faith on the Buddha statue was completely absorbed. “It seems there aren’t many true believers, mostly just those who worship wherever they see a temple, not even casual believers. These Powers of Faith are extremely mixed, just after refining them myself, over ninety percent of the power was refined away. It could be said that no Divine in the Otherworld would like this kind of mostly impure Power of Faith. The more impurities it contains, the more Faith Poison it contains. If it were not for my special condition, probably no ordinary Mage would dare to rashly absorb and use this kind of Power of Faith. Moreover, not only are the impurities abundant, but the quantity is not much either. Despite the thriving incense here with people coming and going. However, Zhao Guang soon realized that although many people also offered incense, there was almost no faith generated. It is mainly some older elders whose faith can be more abundant and also purer. Although it’s of little use, they truly believe. Indeed, when it comes to faith, our countrymen are primarily transactional or just for fun, finding those who are seriously devout is really rare. Thinking about those who make a pilgrimage on foot, perhaps they are more steadfast. Wait, pilgrimage? “Right, I can go to the Tibetan region to see, maybe the harvest will be substantial.” Zhao Guang decided he must find some free time to go to the Tibetan region and take a good long breath. “What a pity, at this rate, it would probably take more than a month for the Power of Faith here to recover. Moreover, the faith is extremely mixed, and it dissipates too quickly. Even the monks here seem not to provide much faith.” Shaking his head, Zhao Guang was convinced that the monks here were all fake. “Mom, what’s wrong with that uncle? Why is he sleeping up there?” “Make sure you never do what that uncle is doing. It’s very dangerous. What if he falls?” A gentle voice spoke up next to him, leaving Zhao Guang somewhat speechless as he realized they were talking about him. “Should we go wake him up? What if he falls down?” “No need. If he’s lying up there, he won’t fall. What if he falls on you as you’re trying to wake him? Let’s just quickly leave,” said the two people as they hurried away. Zhao Guang, after opening his eyes, saw a woman quickly walking away with a child. Was that necessary, worrying about being involved with him? People really had changed, Zhao Guang muttered to himself. He didn’t dwell on it any longer, as he had achieved his purpose for coming here today. In one go, he had raised his Magic Power by what would have taken over three months of meditation, multiplying his previous power several times over largely because his Magic Power was quite low before the breakthrough. At each differing level, a Mage’s capacity for Magic Power doubled. “Next, time to go on a trip abroad,” Zhao Guang said as he got back into his car and drove off while thinking to himself. He had wanted to go out anyway since he was running low on painkillers. Although originally going out was a bit of a hassle, Zhao Guang was not reassured about leaving his Space Gate unguarded. But now, that was a completely different story. Zhao Guang had placed the exit of the Space Gate right next to his home, with Xi Fei helping to keep watch. However, Zhao Guang did not plan to inform either camp about this for the time being. Since he no longer needed to worry about the Space Gate, it became convenient to make a trip out. After some thought, Zhao Guang directly called his older sister to help him prepare his passport. “You must enjoy seeing me swamped with work, huh? Having added to my workload in the dead of last night wasn’t enough, now you need a passport. Spill it, what are you planning to do outside again? Aren’t you afraid of being grounded by authorities?” “I shouldn’t be afraid for now, since I’m not carrying anything forbidden, and I’m not exactly a person of significance,” he replied. “Get going; I’ll prepare it for you,” Zhao Yan was genuinely busy on the other end. Indeed, Zhao Guang had indeed given his sister quite a lot of work these past few days. After finishing his instructions, Zhao Guang returned to the Otherworld again. The order from the other side wasn’t ready yet, but it was time for his trade with Ocoro. Taking some goods along, Zhao Guang headed towards the Human Camp. He first set up the Space Gate on a rock, making it look just like before. The only change was that he no longer needed to periodically release a stream of Magic Power into it. With his own Magic Power, he could fully support the Space Gate being open for a long time, days and nights without any problems. Most of the Space Gate’s power seemed to be drawn from the external environment, requiring minimal consumption from him. Otherwise, with Zhao Guang’s current ability, activating a world-spanning Space Gate would drain an unimaginable amount of Magic Power. Perhaps in just an instant, he would have been completely depleted. This time, the goods were fewer, so the transport was quicker. Upon arriving at the Human military camp, Zhao Guang said a few words before rushing to find Ocoro. Locating Ocoro had become much easier now, as the man had established his own camp that housed various artists.
