Chapter 2775: Chapter 869: The Art of Divine Descent
The best way to enter a house is not by climbing over walls, nor breaking down doors, but by opening the door directly from inside! At that moment, Zhou Tian was undoubtedly in such a situation.
Directly having him descend to the Different World, even Zhou Tian himself knew this was not an easy task. Though Zhou Tian was not weak, in the face of such a situation, without paying a huge price, it was naturally impossible to have his Energy Avatar descend there.
However, if the time came when the believers of Otherworld Zhou Tian needed help and thought of Zhou Tian, perhaps they might only need a very small price to invite Zhou Tian’s Energy Avatar over. And undoubtedly, if such a situation occurred, Zhou Tian could basically be said to have achieved his goal.
Undoubtedly, once such a situation arose, the benefits Zhou Tian could obtain in the entire event would be astonishing. In that situation, worlds that were originally difficult for him to conquer would likely no longer be able to resist Zhou Tian’s expansion.
Firstly, after those living beings invited Zhou Tian’s Energy Avatar, the Abyssal Energy Zhou Tian brought would inevitably corrupt their internal space. Secondly, if Zhou Tian’s Energy Avatar descended to the Different World, besides assisting his believers, Zhou Tian could also do something else before his Energy was completely consumed. Although it wouldn’t represent massive destruction of that world, continuous Diligence would certainly exert some influence on these matters.
Additionally, and most importantly, if Zhou Tian could continuously have his Energy Avatar descend to the Different World, it would certainly have a rather positive effect on the spreading of his Faith. This way, the annexation of other worlds by the Abyss World would be much easier, and Zhou Tian himself could harvest the Faith of a great number of living beings.
In many novels, Faith Power is portrayed as magical, determining the strength of a Deity or celestial being. However, in Zhou Tian’s understanding, although Faith Power has a certain effect, it’s not as precious as imagined when actually calculated.
If spreading faith really granted immense power, who would bother with Cultivation? Compared to Cultivation, spreading faith is much easier, and notably, there would be no Bottleneck.
However, in reality, although Lower Realm has some Cultivation Systems focusing on collecting Faith Power, in the middle worlds, there aren’t many living beings increasing their strength solely through Faith Power.
Nonetheless, just because Faith Power isn’t as formidable as depicted in novels, it doesn’t mean it lacks any real effect.
In fact, the essence of Faith Power is an external form of spiritual power. Although it may seem insignificant, if used properly, while its Combat Power cannot compare to other Energies, its effect is sufficient to make it an important Auxiliary Ability.
The Spiritual Power’s effect is quite mysterious. Under the same Cultivation Level, the one with stronger Spiritual Power often best utilizes their strength, while consuming less during assaults. Additionally, Illusion Techniques depend entirely on Spiritual Power, though its effect is inevitably diminished at the Divine Realm’s level. In the Lower Realm, however, especially for Warlocks and Mages, Spiritual Power is more important than any Energy.
While it may seem that the higher the Cultivation Level, the less important Spiritual Power becomes, Zhou Tian believes there should be no useless Energy in the world. Despite the differences in strength, if used in the right place, even the weakest Ability could potentially defeat a stronger one.
In Zhou Tian’s view, Spiritual Power still has tremendous development potential. It remains underdeveloped due to a lack of demand and desire, making the highly prized Ability in the Lower Realm become a useless one after reaching the Advanced World.
While other worlds disregarded Spiritual Power, Zhou Tian decided at that point to focus on developing this Ability. Zhou Tian also believed that if he could indeed develop a new usage method for Spiritual Power, it would mature into an ability as valuable as any mainstream Ability today.
Once Spiritual Power became important, the significance of Faith Power, as a branch of Spiritual Power, would greatly increase.
When Zhou Tian created the Divine Descent Ability, he intended to make Faith Power one of the primary Attack Methods of the Abyss World. For now, Zhou Tian is the only one capable of using this Faith Power.
The Divine Descent Ability uses the connection of Faith to let Zhou Tian’s avatar reach his believers at a certain cost. Under that situation, the avatar’s strength depends not only on the cost paid by the other party but also on Zhou Tian’s Spiritual Power.
