Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree-Chapter 224: 2 Million Saint Apprentices—Faith Is Truly Impossible to Spend!

Chapter 224: Chapter 224: 2 Million Saint Apprentices—Faith Is Truly Impossible to Spend!

The Divine Thunder Bow being swallowed by the cosmic beast served as a wake-up call for Gu Qingyang.

Though it’s good to carry Supreme Treasures with the Dharma Body, there is also a possibility of losing them.

If the Emperor’s Soldier were likewise lost in the Cosmic Starry Sky, Gu Qingyang would feel the pain.

After all.

Emperor’s Soldier is not merely a ninth-tier Supreme Treasure; it is a walking Heavenly Dao Origin.

If there wasn’t a second Emperor’s Soldier, Gu Qingyang would have already thought about destroying the Celestial Thunder Halberd to directly extract the Heavenly Dao Origin inside.

"Every Great Emperor has their Emperor’s Soldier; although I have reached the eighth tier, my realm is not equal to a Great Emperor, but my strength is not much inferior.

In that case, I should forge an Emperor’s Soldier that belongs to me!"

Gu Qingyang had already made his plan.

He has delved quite deeply into the field of Artifact Refining; crafting a sixth-tier Supreme Treasure is a simple task, and with appropriate top-tier materials, crafting a seventh-tier Supreme Treasure is also no problem.

But obviously.

Forging an Emperor’s Soldier requires more than just refining skills.

After all, not every Great Emperor Powerhouse is a top Artifact Refining Grandmaster. From the Celestial Thunder Halberd, Gu Qingyang has discovered that the Emperor’s Soldier is not ordinary compared to regular Divine Soldiers.

Thinking this.

Gu Qingyang couldn’t help but take out the Celestial Thunder Halberd and reflect upon the intricate mysteries of this Supreme Treasure.

Being an Emperor’s Soldier that has been handed down through the ages, its mysteries need no further elaboration.

...

Several days.

Gu Qingyang had already discerned the subtleties of the Celestial Thunder Halberd.

Firstly, regarding the refining materials, the Celestial Thunder Halberd needs no further mention; it is crafted from genuine top-grade materials. But what truly allows it to endure through ages with unparalleled might are the intricate carvings of mysterious patterns within it.

These patterns connect to Heaven and Earth, harboring supreme power.

In simple terms, one could compare the Emperor’s Soldier to a cultivator, with the carved patterns akin to how cultivators harness the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

One could say.

The Emperor’s Soldier can continuously harness Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to nurture itself, thereby unleashing supreme might.

This is why each Great Emperor-level Influence can depend on Emperor’s Soldiers to be handed down through the ages; even with the erosion of time, the Emperor’s Soldiers are not lost.

"As long as there is Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, Emperor’s Soldiers do not fear the erosion of time; any Emperor’s Soldier can equate to a living top Saint or Quasi-Emperor Powerhouse.

The foundation of Great Emperor-level influences originates from this.

But if one were to discard Emperor’s Soldiers in a barren world devoid of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, countless years later, Emperor’s Soldiers would fall into oblivion.

However, finding a world completely devoid of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi is not simple. Even in the Cyan Yang Realm during the End of the Dharma Era, there existed extremely faint spiritual energy.

Hence, any Emperor’s Soldier can be inherited through the ages, ensuring the immortality of their influence!"

This is the mystery of Emperor’s Soldiers that Gu Qingyang has glimpsed.

One could say.

Emperor’s Soldiers are stronger when they encounter strength.

In times when no Powerhouses control them, their minimum power level is equivalent to top Saints to Quasi-Emperors; but when held by a Great Emperor, they are akin to a true Great Emperor Powerhouse.

Therefore.

A Great Emperor with an Emperor’s Soldier and one without are completely two different concepts.

"Crafting an Emperor’s Soldier requires top-tier materials. Otherwise, ordinary materials cannot withstand Heaven’s powers, let alone Earth’s strength..."

Gu Qingyang fell into contemplation.

To forge an Emperor’s Soldier, he must find top-tier materials.

But the problem is that even within the Immortal Extinction Realm, any material suitable for forging an Emperor’s Soldier is extremely rare, and obtaining it is not easy.

These materials are either found within some Ancient Secret Realm, or held by Great Emperor-level Influences.

Regardless of which, acquiring them is not easy.

With this thought.

Gu Qingyang’s mind suddenly stirred.

Suddenly, a branch from the Divine Tree gently detached.

Watching the branch separating from its being, Gu Qingyang had already made his plan.

His essence is the Heavenly Dao Divine Tree, and no need to mention its preciousness. Plus, as Gu Qingyang now steps into the eighth tier, the Heavenly Dao Divine Tree possesses extraordinary power.

Even a single leaf can annihilate a True Monarch.

Now, Gu Qingyang severed a branch, which could serve as one of the materials for crafting an Emperor’s Soldier.

Of course.

The crafting of an Emperor’s Soldier isn’t completed with just one material.

With his Divine Thought, Gu Qingyang refined all the force within the branch, and when the branch turned into ashes, the place on the Divine Tree where it broke grew anew.

"Wait a bit longer, see if anyone can collect materials for Emperor’s Soldiers. If some can be gathered, I could start crafting.

Strictly speaking, what I am crafting is not an Emperor’s Soldier but a Lifebound Divine Soldier. If one day I break the ninth-tier limit, this Lifebound Divine Soldier will surely surpass Emperor’s Soldiers.

In this case, the crafting of this Lifebound Divine Soldier cannot be careless; it needs utmost caution!"

Gu Qingyang pondered.

Then.

He posted a task in the Divine Kingdom chat group, seeking top-tier materials with generous rewards.

The rewards for any Divine Kingdom task are actually tied to Gu Qingyang’s faith.

After all, when someone exchanges Elixirs or Divine Soldiers, Gu Qingyang needs to utilize Faith Power for derivation.

However.

Since the last battle, Gu Qingyang has noticed an explosion in the number of his followers.

Firstly, the number of Saint Apprentices directly surpassed the million mark, totaling around two million.

Two million Saint Apprentices.

Gu Qingyang can passively earn three billion faith every day, totaling up to trillions in a year.

Moreover, the number of ordinary followers has also surged to sixty billion.

In a year, the faith from ordinary followers combined amounts to roughly five trillion.

Combined, Gu Qingyang can receive at least six trillion faith annually.

What does six trillion signify?

A seventh-tier Divine Kingdom requires only ten trillion.

Meaning Gu Qingyang can upgrade the Divine Kingdom to the seventh-tier in less than two years.

Even an eighth-tier Divine Kingdom only takes ten years.

Furthermore.

This is merely the number of followers from the Ancient Wilderness.

Once Cyan Yang Divine Court truly conquers the entire Immortal Extinction Realm, the number of Gu Qingyang’s followers is bound to explode insanely.

By then.

Cyan Yang Divine Court will undoubtedly be filled with Powerhouses.

Thus.

Now, Gu Qingyang lacks no Faith Power.

At least when publishing tasks, he doesn’t lack Faith Power at all.

Because daily consumption is not even close to the daily inflow.

Therefore.

Gu Qingyang can only say that he spends without limit, truly limitless.

Waking up every day with billions inflow, it’s simply an unbridled joy.

If not for temporarily allowing Cyan Yang Divine Court to rest and recuperate, Gu Qingyang would have already started a new war to suppress all forces in the Immortal Extinction Realm, making them submit to the Divine Court.
