A Top Scholar in Everything-Chapter 201: The True Power of Prayer Technique Apprentice
Chapter 201: Chapter 201: The True Power of Prayer Technique Apprentice
Baiyu toyed with the flower in his hand.
This thing was still quite exquisite, crafted with meticulous care by a little girl. If not for its overly peculiar materials, its sales clearly would have boosted by several levels.
The Black Moon Mark once again had no response.
The murmuring ceased the moment he received the flower.
"Cang Yan, do you know what this place is?" Watching the flower-selling girl gradually fade into the distance, Baiyu silently asked in his heart.
Lately, Cang Yan’s waking periods grew shorter and shorter, as this plump hamster seemed to be entering a state of evolution, spending most of its time sleeping, yet its Blood Qi grew stronger.
Now that she was finally awake, Baiyu told her the entire cause and effect, wanting to see what insights this hamster might have.
"If I am not mistaken, the Tenth District is merely an entrance. The place you’re in now might be the Divine Country of the original Divine Spirit, Black Moon of the Fifteenth..."
Cang Yan spoke these shocking words with a calm face.
Divine Country.
What a grand and lofty title.
Baiyu furrowed his brows, "So Pang Fei and Qiong Jiu’s disappearance, could it be related to this?"
"In the Divine Country, anything is possible. They might have lost themselves in the Divine Country, becoming a part of it, or they might be imprisoned somewhere, possibly even dead.
Baiyu, this place is rather eerie.
I sensed quite a bit of strangeness. If you can leave, do so immediately; don’t stay a moment longer. The dangers within are absolutely beyond what you can currently handle."
Cang Yan grew more serious.
Baiyu also wanted to leave.
But returning to Linjiang City meant facing the ever-expanding streets, with no retreat. Instead of waiting for death, it was better to take a gamble. According to Cang Yan, the district’s constant expansion was due to Linjiang City’s continuous erosion, being swallowed by the Divine Country of Black Moon of the Fifteenth, with someone behind accelerating this process.
Who that person was was self-evident.
Kaz.
The Grand High Priest of the Abyssal Ascetic Association.
Baiyu and Kaz had never met, and the other party, using the Eye of True Wisdom, at most caught a glimpse of Baiyu’s physique, unable to even peek at his appearance.
Moreover, Baiyu also had the Spiritual Protection of the Radiance Lord, making it even harder for Kaz to spy on him.
In fact.
Since Baiyu began worshipping the Radiance Lord, he had not been spied on again in the dark. This deity was indeed formidable, befitting the name of Radiance. The followers under his command were each more fierce than the other.
Monsters like Meng Lei were not uncommon in the Holy Light Church.
"Speaking of which, I haven’t prayed in a long time to maintain my spiritual connection with the Radiance Lord. The ship of friendship has probably long since capsized," Baiyu suddenly remembered.
Since he acquired the method of the Spiritual Prayer Ceremony, he only used it once, then never again.
The faith a Divine Spirit required was long-lasting faith, genuine faith. A pseudo-believer like him was probably already abandoned by the Radiance Lord, who might have even cursed inwardly, "Damn believer, fooling me emotionally."
Thinking this way.
Baiyu suddenly had a bold idea.
If he used the Spiritual Prayer Ceremony here, what would happen?
As soon as this idea arose, he could hardly restrain himself, wanting to immediately start taking action. Cang Yan was also startled by his thought.
What shocked Cang Yan even more.
This guy had no reverence for the Divine Spirits.
Whether it was the God of Steam and Mechanics, the Radiance Lord, or the Lord of Blood, Fifteenth of the Black Moon, she saw no reverence in Baiyu.
As long as one is bold enough.
Even deities are not impossible to use!
For instance, Baiyu previously disguised as a follower of the Radiance Lord, gaining spiritual protection from the Radiance Lord and avoiding hidden surveillance.
This was a blatant exploitation.
Simply outrageous.
"Baiyu, are you crazy? You’ve already angered a deity. The Radiance Lord has countless followers. He might not notice you, but if he discovers you’re a mortal using Him, just a slight glance from Him and you’d immediately collapse mentally."
Cang Yan was scared green.
However, Baiyu’s eyes were unusually clear, "You’re right, I’ve already offended a deity. A Tier Nine Martial Artist, a Sequence Nine Extraordinary, to the deity, is nothing more than an ant.
So does it matter if I offend one or two deities?
Moreover, the scenario you described is merely the worst-case scenario.
What if, by using the Radiance Lord’s power, I can break through the current predicament, and all problems will be resolved?"
Baiyu was not a person easily shaken.
He acted as he thought.
He found a place, using his spirituality to communicate with the void, and began to secretly establish a connection with the Radiance Lord following the method of the Spiritual Prayer Ceremony.
"Light, great light..."
"Light, scorching light..."
The strange, tongue-twisting syllables mumbled from his mouth; the shameful prayer of the Radiance Lord resounded again after many days.
Cang Yan watched this scene uneasily.
The scholar space was closely tied to Baiyu; if anything happened to Baiyu, the whole space would be affected.
She had long since been bound with Baiyu, becoming a community of shared interests.
After a long time.
Even Baiyu himself didn’t notice, his entire being emanating a faint light, gold-colored, somewhat dazzling.
This type of light, Cang Yan had sensed on Meng Lei!
"This is... the power of a Prayer Technique Apprentice!"
Cang Yan sensed it keenly.
And Baiyu, as if a moment of enlightenment dawned upon him, felt the Extraordinary Power that had been bottled up inside him flow like a trickle, completely integrating into his body and dispersing throughout his limbs and bones.
The Prayer Apprentice Magic Elixir was, at this moment, finally and completely digested!
At this point.
He finally understood the true ability of the Prayer Technique Apprentice in the Magic Elixir Sequence.
Shine, Sunlight — these two abilities were merely the superficial powers of the Prayer Technique Apprentice. The true ability of this profession is the Prayer Technique!
This is a very abstract ability.
Put simply, it’s the fanatical worshiper of magic, able to attract observation and judgment from the one prayed to, while also influencing their judgment.
The targets of a Prayer Technique Apprentice’s prayers are always some ancient, secret existences, after all, as an Extraordinary, it’s impossible for you to pray to another similarly powerful Extraordinary through spirituality.
Those who can respond to a believer’s prayer must at least be an Extraordinary of the demigod level or higher.
Ordinary people can also pray to Divine Spirits.
But the appeal initiated by a Prayer Technique Apprentice using their ability is different, and this ability is somewhat eerie.
It can make the one prayed to believe you are their fanatic follower, crazily worshiping their power and control, begging them to grant miracles.
In short.
It’s to deceive the deities!
Can deities be deceived?
Nobody knows for sure.
Everyone harbors awe towards deities because of the mystery; they are feared and admired.
So even if others acquired the ability of a Prayer Technique Apprentice, they would likely reveal flaws due to fear and the like. Moreover, using this ability carelessly could lead to eternal damnation.
It’s even possible to truly lose oneself, becoming the fanatic of the ancient existence being prayed to.
But Baiyu... basically never showed reverence for these deities.
The education, concepts, and so forth he accepted were different from those of this world.
Ordinary people on Canglan Star have been indoctrinated since birth with the belief that Divine Spirits are supreme, unoffendable, unexaminable, not to be profaned, and not to be overheard, etc.
Merely thinking poorly of a Divine Spirit is a great sin, requiring you to go to church to confess.
But Baiyu.
Having been influenced by the red tide, he has always believed these Divine Spirits were merely powerful beings, and that if he strived hard enough in cultivation, he would one day catch up to or even surpass them.
Therefore.
Under such a mindset, the power of the Prayer Technique Apprentice finally fully manifested at this moment.
