Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws Chapter 696 - Modifying the Faith Refining Cleanse, the Power of Faith, Ascending to the Heavenly Im

Chapter 696: Modifying the Faith Refining Cleanse, the Power of Faith, Ascending to the Heavenly Imperial Realm

Chu Kuangren’s remarkable reputation undoubtedly solidified after that battle in the Nether Abyss Valley.
After returning to the Black Heaven Sect, he started sorting everything he obtained from that battle. He had looted many items from each of the religious orthodoxies.
“It looks like there’s a technique to utilize the Power of Faith.”
Chu Kuangren said as he took out a scroll from the Divine Maiden’s Yin and Yang Ring. A technique known as the Faith Refining Cleanse was inscribed in that scroll, making it the most valuable item that Chu Kuangren retrieved this time.
The Faith Refining Cleanse could be stated as an offensive technique that was a little unique. That was because, if any cultivator were to use it to gather the Power of Faith, they would be terrified at how horribly inefficient it was in doing so.
To put it simply, the amount of spiritual qi that Chu Kuangren could absorb in two hours would take a whole year of using the Faith Refining Cleanse technique to gather the Power of Faith of the same amount.
Due to this, even the cultivators of the God Worshipping Cult were not willing to learn this technique. They would rather stick with absorbing spiritual qi instead.
However, this was a cultivation technique that the God Worshipping Cult developed after generations of hard work!
Furthermore, this technique was almost as profound as most Emperor Scriptures, if not on the same level. So much effort was spent researching a technique like this was mainly because of the God Worshipping Cult’s God Flesh Project.
They intended to use this technique to channel the Power of Faith and transform a mortal’s body into one close to the gods. By doing so, even if the gods were sealed, they could summon the gods’ will through certain rituals and mediums to possess this God Flesh.
This was one of the methods the God Worshipping Cult had to fight against the Heavenly Imperial Council.
“Lil Ai, analyze this technique for me.”
“Very well…”
With the Omniscient Spirit, Lil Ai’s analysis, Chu Kuangren did not take long to master the Faith Refining Cleanse technique fully.
He could not wait to try it out.
Upon doing so, he could immediately sense the Power of Faith lingering in his surroundings.
With a flicker of his mind, the Power of Faith started entering his body.
Once the Power of Faith entered his body, it was converted into an incredibly pure spiritual power, which was later converted by his Emperor’s Core into Emperor qi.
After a day and a night.
Chu Kuangren opened his eyes and frowned. “This is just too slow. I can’t even produce a tenth of a strand of Emperor qi after refining the Power of Faith the whole day, let alone a single strand.”
Seeing that it was that slow given how talented he was, it would take others more than a hundred years to produce even a single strand of Emperor qi.
With that efficiency rate, he might as well absorb spiritual qi himself.
He took out the scroll and studied it again. “It looks like I’ll have to make some modifications if I want to continue using this technique.”
By now, creating new techniques was second nature to Chu Kuangren.
He was not so confident in creating a technique that utilized the Power of Faith before this because he did not have a template for reference. However, he had one now.
Using the Faith Refining Cleanse as his blueprint, and with the help of the Omniscient Spirit, Lil Ai, and his extraordinary level of understanding, he gradually patched up the defects within that technique.
As time passed, a month had gone by since then.
Chu Kuangren had finally removed all of the problems in the Faith Refining Cleanse and even made some improvements in some components of that technique.
“Let’s try again now.”
Chu Kuangren’s lips curled into a grin.
With a flicker of his mind, he started activating this technique.
In an instant, he felt the abundant Power of Faith, as vast as an ocean, surrounding him.
It was much more than what he sensed a month ago.
“seems like the Black Heaven School has grown a lot during the past month.”
Chu Kuangren let out a satisfied smile.
Then, he started absorbing the Power of Faith.
Surges of Power of Faith started pouring into his body rapidly from all directions. That technique was now a hundred or even a thousand times more efficient than before.
If the God Worshipping Cult learned of this, there was no telling how shocked they would be.
Not to mention that Chu Kuangren mastered the Faith Refining Cleanse that their forefathers developed for countless generations in a day, he also took no more than a month to make its efficiency a thousand times better!
How would this make their forefathers look?!
All of them must be turning in their graves right now!
“Oh my, it is quite effective now.”
Chu Kuangren grinned a little. As large amounts of Power of Faith entered his body, he felt like he had consumed countless Supreme Elixirs in one go. Countless amounts of spiritual power were now surging inside him.
Meanwhile, his Prominent-grade Emperor’s Core was quite welcoming too. It immediately turned the spiritual power that entered his body into Emperor qi.
As his Emperor qi and cultivation level increased rapidly, Chu Kuangren gradually entered a peculiar meditative state of mind.
His consciousness had seemingly exited his body and was drifting out into the void. He saw all kinds of scenery, the rare and exotic strange beasts, and the common folk living in prosperity and peace. However, he also saw the bodies of soldiers scattered on the battlefield…
His consciousness seemed to have merged with the world itself and was watching everything that was happening in it currently.
That feeling was incredibly bizarre and inexplicable.
Chu Kuangren started to understand something.
A very long time soon passed.
Chu Kuangren was still drifting in the ocean of Faith, unscrupulously absorbing the Power of Faith within it. By doing so, his cultivation level constantly increased.
Besides that, his understanding of the Dao also increased rapidly, allowing him to control universal energy not long after.
After two months.
Chu Kuangren came out from his meditation chambers.
Right now, he no longer had a vast and mighty aura like an ordinary Emperor, but it was plain and regular instead.
Besides that extremely handsome appearance and otherworldly temperament he possessed, there was no sign of an Emperor’s strength from him.
However, Chu Kuangren knew that he was now stronger than ever. If he were to fight the Underworld God again, he could blow up his opponent with a single punch and did not need to use any of his trump cards at all.
Low-rank Heavenly Imperial!
This was Chu Kuangren’s current cultivation realm. However, since a difference in cultivation realm was not the same as a difference in combat strength, his strength was undoubtedly far more superior to his peers of the same realm.
He had gained a lot of benefits in the past two months.
Besides being able to control universal energy and ascending to become a Heavenly Imperial, Chu Kuangren’s Invincible Techniques had increased to a higher level as well.
His Invincible Techniques was equivalent to a Superb-grade Esoteric Art.
Such Esoteric Art was incredibly rare among humans. Other than this, he also discovered some extraordinary uses for the Power of Faith.
Not only could it increase his cultivation level, but it could also be used to gain insights into the Dao, increase his soul energy, and more. The range of uses for the Power of Faith was said to be limitless.
This further strengthened Chu Kuangren’s resolve to gather the Power of Faith to fight against the gods. With the Power of Faith, he could now strengthen himself and hold his own in the face of the gods’ power. If he could kill two birds with one stone, then why not?
After coming out from his closed-door meditation, Chu Kuangren’s Emperor Thoughts surged out and swept across the whole of Firmament Star.
He learned that four months had passed since his closed-door meditation. Within these four months, without the God Worshipping Cult in his way, his Black Heaven School was growing at an exponential rate.
New followers and worshippers were joining his school almost every second.
With such growing popularity, the Black Heaven School soon spread out to the surrounding prefectures and became the beliefs of many.
“If everyone in the whole Firmament Star is believing in me, how far will my cultivation level improve?”
Chu Kuangren clenched his fists with excitement.
He came to the Black Heaven School’s great hall, where the Immemorial Sage and others were discussing matters. Everyone quickly greeted him upon seeing his arrival.
“Congratulations for finishing your closed-door meditation, honorable True God.”
Some of the elders were now addressing him as the True God like the common people.
After all, what Chu Kuangren did at the Nether Abyss Valley could definitely be described as a divine might.
