Chapter 208 – Time Flies

Chapter 208 - Time Flies

Light spread out, covering the surroundings.

At that moment, everyone had a feeling that a historic moment was about to occur.

As they watched, a figure flew out; it was a handsome young man.

The young man wore leather armor but had a pale face, as if he had taken a big blow.

“Ali!”

Looking at the young man, James shouted out and rushed up worriedly.

“Did he succeed?” everyone thought to themselves.

All of the hero candidates were out here already.

It made sense that Ali was the victor.

However, it did not look like he had succeeded.

“I failed.”

Ali struggled to his feet and looked at James as he gave a bitter smile and shook his head, “I’m not the final victor.”

Hearing this, everyone else was stunned.

Ahead, the light was becoming even more intense.

Soon, a figure appeared.

It was a young man dressed in black robes. He was tall and well-built, and he had elegant looks and a calm expression on his face.

Being bathed in the light, he looked like a god, and he was filled with unimaginably powerful positive faith energy.

It was Chen Heng.

“Who is that?” looking at the divine-looking Chen Heng, many people felt stunned.

Many people had been watching since the very start, but they had never seen this young man.

However, some people recognized Chen Heng.

“Mister Ed!” Ali and James were stunned.

They had thought that Chen Heng had stayed in the town, and he did not show any signs of coming to the trial.

Back then, they had thought that Chen Heng did not come to the trial because he was concerned for the town.

However, they had never thought that Chen Heng would have come here and succeeded.

“If it wasn’t for Mister Ed…”

Looking at Chen Heng in the air, Ali gave a slight smile, “It would have been no problem.”

After talking with Chen Heng for a long time, he knew that if it was Chen Heng becoming the hero, he would definitely bring mankind to an age of peace, and he would be able to get rid of all disasters.

Since it was like that, this was not a bad outcome.

“He actually did it,” Jacdo looked a bit surprised, as if he had not expected this at all.

Honestly speaking, he had some hope in Chen Heng, but he did not expect Chen Heng to actually succeed.

After all, using his own power to take in all of this world’s faith energy was a bit too difficult.

The aptitude it required was immense.

Even though Chen Heng seemed quite special and extraordinary, Jacdo did not think that he could actually do it.

However, right now, Chen Heng was in the air, being bathed by that light.

He… had really done it.

An outsider had truly passed the hero’s trial and received the faith energy of this world, becoming this world’s hero.

This meant that this trial was going to conclude.

Standing there, Jacdo slowly looked down at his arms.

At that moment, something was happening to him.

His faith energy was currently dissipating.

“This is…” Sensing his energy disappear, Jacdo stared for a moment before lightly laughing.

After the hero’s legacy had chosen the victor, the trial had concluded.

He, the demon king, had completed his mission and no longer had to bear this burden.

His energy quickly disappeared.

At the same time, Chen Heng seemed to sense something and silently raised his head.

In the distance, black fog-like negative faith energy gathered and entered his body.

Within his body, a mysterious and complicated mark was created.

This mark was incredibly profound, and each stroke contained great mysteriousness. Just looking at it, one would feel as if they were going to comprehend something.

All positive and negative faith energy exploded out.

It was a Faith Mark.

Chen Heng silently closed his eyes.

As he passed the hero’s trial, he cleared the trial that the creator of this world had set.

Waves of information flowed into his mind.

“So it’s like that.”

After a while, Chen Heng opened his eyes, a look of comprehension within them.

After receiving that information, he understood the origins of this world.

This world originated from the Faith Mark in his body.

No matter if it was positive or negative faith energy, it was just a difference in nature.

When this world was formed, the Faith Mark naturally split into positive and negative faith energy. The negative turned into the demon king, and the positive turned into the hero.

The hero and demon king were actually the same and just represented different characteristics of the Faith Mark.

Over the past thousands of years, the Faith Mark had been searching for an owner that could take it.

This world would continuously expand and bring in outsiders for this purpose.

A big part of the reason why Chen Heng could pass the hero’s trial was also because of this.

Just in terms of one’s commitment to righteousness, Chen Heng could not compare to Ali and the others.

However, his aptitude and his ability to take in faith energy was above that of Ali and the others.

Chen Heng did not know why this was; perhaps it was because he had the simulator.

It was because of this he was able to gain victory in the hero’s trial.

Various memories flashed in his mind.

Finally, Chen Heng slowly opened his eyes and looked into the distance.

Massive energy swept out from his body in all directions.

This was absolute power.

The positive faith energy that had gathered over countless years caused Chen Heng’s strength to greatly increase.

Even a true Sorcerer was nothing in front of him right now; he would be able to deal with them with a single finger.

Massive power was roaring within him.

In the next moment, he looked down.

With a single thought from Chen Heng, wind and sand began to rise in the distance, and an intense storm covered everything.

Below, everyone was trembling.

Facing this apocalyptic strength, they were completely powerless. Even the army facing an existence like this was helpless.

It was not an exaggeration to say that a single thought from this person could create disasters and destroy countless lives.

Facing someone with this power, all numbers lost significance.

However, within the intense danger, there was a resplendent light of hope.

In the air, Chen Heng’s figure was covered with light, and his expression was calm and gentle. Anyone who looked at him felt that they could trust him and believe in him.

Even enemies who saw Chen Heng now would not help but feel close to him.

This was the effects of positive faith energy. Chen Heng had essentially become the manifestation of positive faith energy, and anyone who saw him would feel good emotions.

Various emotions flashed in Chen Heng’s mind as he looked down at these people.

Ali, James, Herlo, Jacdo…

Their figures appeared within his vision, seeming incredibly clear.

Every person’s appearance could be seen by him.

…………

In the next moment, he took a step and appeared in the distance.

…

After the hero’s trial ended and the hero appeared, the world went through great changes.

The day after the hero appeared, even though there were still many demon beasts, their terrifying momentum stopped, and large numbers of human kingdoms were able to breathe again.

Following this, under the lead of the new hero, the kingdoms created an allied army to hunt down demons.

The expedition lasted for half a year, after which all demon beasts in the world were cleared out.

Afterwards, most kingdoms disappeared and were merged by the hero.

There was much fighting and war in the process.

However, under the hero’s power, no one could stop him.

In just a few months, all resistance ceased.

The allied army was destroyed by the hero singlehandedly, and all soldiers were taken as captives.

The world once again fell into peace.

Within a peaceful town.

Two young men walked, slowly looking around.

Outside the town, there were many roads being built.

Outside the town, there had already been some routes that were used by merchant groups. However, because they were not regularly maintained, they were often not in good condition.

However, now, the routes were filled with countless figures.

Residents from all around had been gathered to work here.

“Looks like there have been many changes here.”

Walking on a path and looking at the busy people, Jacdo felt quite surprised.

“It’s surprising to imagine how different this place was a year ago.”

“It’s alright.”

Chen Heng walked together with Jacdo on the path.

Chen Heng was not too surprised at the busy scene, “This is the first place I settled down at, so it’s normal that there would be great changes. It’ll be good when other places are like this, but that will take a long time.”

Jacdo grinned and looked at Chen Heng as he said, “What did you come to me for? I didn’t do anything this past year.”

“Do I need to have a reason to come and find you?” Chen Heng asked as he looked at Jacdo.

“Then what is it?”

Jacdo shrugged, “I know that that fellow Ali has been sent out by you, bringing people to the forests every day to kill demon beasts. Don’t tell me you’ve come to me to talk about this.”

“No.”

“Then is it to ask me to help you to capture the remaining demon king apostles?” he guessed as he looked at Chen Heng.

“It’s not that either,” Chen Heng shook his head, “I came to find you for a request. In the past, many outsiders came to this world, right?”

“Indeed,” the demon king nodded, “there were over 100.”

“I want the things that those people left behind,” Chen Heng said as he nodded, “Those things are useful to me.”

Most of the outsiders who had come to this world were Sorcerers.

Back then, Chen Heng had obtained a magic skill book and a Kodo Beast Heart, which had helped him become a true Sorcerer.

He guessed that there were most likely many things that he had not discovered.

However, those things were most likely hidden in secretive places that were difficult to find.

After thinking about it, Chen Heng felt that the most suitable person was Jacdo.

As the demon king, he had lived for many years and most likely knew about those outsiders, as well as where they died.

After all, he had most likely come into contact with them, and in fact, he had most likely killed some of them.

“I know about some,” Jacdo said as he nodded.

He did not hesitate and agreed, “Is that the request?”

“Yes,” Chen Heng said softly, “in exchange, I will pass a full Sorcerer’s legacy to you.”

“Oh,” Jacdo looked somewhat interested, “that sounds quite good.”

As the demon king, Jacdo’s strength was quite great. However, now that he had lost his privilege as the demon king, his strength had greatly decreased. Even if he still retained a portion of the power, he was much weaker than before.

In terms of strength, he was now comparable to a true Sorcerer.

True Sorcerers were extremely powerful compared to ordinary people, but compared to his previous peak, it was quite weak.

As such, Jacdo was quite interested in obtaining the Sorcerer system and gaining new power.

In the past, he had interacted with Sorcerers and had even obtained a Meditation Technique.

However, it was not enough, and he had no reason to become a Sorcerer.

Now, there was a reason.

Chen Heng was not worried about Jacdo’s talent; he had tested it before.

He did not know why, but those who could gather faith energy in this world all had decent Sorcerer talent. Moreover, the more powerful their faith energy was, the greater their talent was.

For example, Ali and James had Level 5 Sorcerer talent, which was higher than even Chen Heng’s.

Jacdo had been the demon king in the past, and his talent would be even greater.

After talking with Jacdo, Chen Heng turned and left this place.

After obtaining the Faith Mark, he had obtained the way to leave. As long as he wanted to, he could leave at any moment and return to the Sorcerer World.

However, the situation in this world was not yet stable; because of the demon disaster and various other chaos, most people had not settled yet.

In order to solve this problem and also to gain control over this world, Chen Heng had stayed for now.

Time gradually passed.

Soon, another five years had passed.

During these five years, Chen Heng had roughly explored this whole world and divided up the land.

He had improved production while providing education, basing things off his memories off the real world.

In five years, the world went through great changes almost every year.

Some changes were good and some were not. However, overall, the situation had been stabilized and people’s lives were no longer easily threatened.

Apart from a few regions, most regions’ demon beasts and bandits had been cleared out.
