Su Yu had already seen the situation on the island from the memories of those soldiers and Brahma.
The group of soldiers didn’t just take away a group of people. They also took away all the valuable items on Brahma Island.
Fortunately, other than the Replica Deity Statue, there were no other special buildings in Brahma’s hands. Otherwise, it would have attracted the attention of the upper echelons of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It would not be so easy for Su Yu to catch Brahma so quickly this time.
[Ding! You have successfully killed the Island Master. Do you want to condense the power of the island and form a Level 10 Heart of the Island?]
As soon as Su Yu stepped onto the island, a familiar notification sounded in his ear.
Su Yu, who was already familiar with this, naturally chose yes.
Soon, a huge Heart of the Island was formed in the center of the island.
After storing it into Ghost Ship, Su Yu piloted Ghost Ship and prepared to rush back to the island overnight.
Su Yu did not return to expand the island, but to test the effects of the Replica Deity Statue.
This time, Su Yu did not plan to use the Level 10 Heart of the Island immediately after returning. Instead, he planned to use it after reaching the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Otherwise, once the island’s area increased, the speed of the Motion Furnace’s advancement would decrease further. It was better to use it later.
Under the full speed of the Ghost Ship, Su Yu’s figure appeared on his own island two hours later.
As it was still night time, Su Yu could not be bothered to continue working. Instead, he returned to the small villa and slept comfortably.
Although cultivating in seclusion could replace sleeping, Su Yu felt that cultivators had to pay attention to the balance between work and rest. Occasionally sleeping would allow one’s spiritual thoughts to be more clear.
Soon, the night passed uneventfully, and the sun rose as usual.
After eating a delicious breakfast cooked by Liu Maoxing, Su Yu quickly left the small villa in a good mood. He appeared in a relatively empty area of the island.
“All of you, come see me.” After casually taking out the Replica Deity Statue, Su Yu used his spiritual thought to summon Zhou Yi, Ao Yan, and the sea beasts in the Rank Up Tower.
Upon receiving the order, everyone immediately rushed towards Su Yu.
The first to arrive were the Flame Eagle brothers, who possessed the bloodline of the divine bird. Ao Yan and the others also quickly rushed to where Su Yu was.
“Greetings, Master.” Instantly, large numbers of figures continuously knelt down.
At this moment, Su Yu finally experienced the power pursued by humans.
At this moment, all kinds of huge sea beasts, a large number of heroic figures, the skeleton army, and other humanoid creatures were kneeling on the ground. One could imagine how shocking this scene was.
In Su Yu’s vision, streams of power of faith were continuously surging into the Replica Deity Statue from the bodies of these living beings.
Among them, the power of faith contributed by the weaker ones was as thin as cotton threads. The power of faith contributed by a Gold Rank existence like Xuan Turtle was like a small hemp rope.
Of course, how much faith the believers contributed was also related to how much faith the believers had in the person they believed in.
For example, Ao Yan and the others who were loyal to death to Su Yu. They were all the highest-level fanatics.
Actually, if Su Yu had not obtained the Replica Deity Statue from Brahma, he would not have been able to collect the power of faith with his own strength.
Then, with a thought, Su Yu directly controlled the statue and sent a thought to Ao Yan and the others.
Currently, the statue was already enlarged to 50 to 60 meters tall. It had already transformed into Su Yu’s appearance.
Ao Yan and the others, who had received their master’s spiritual power, emitted even purer power of faith.
This was like being passive previously and taking the initiative now. There was clearly a gap between the two.
Otherwise, why would the legendary gods need believers to pray every day?
After testing the effect of the statue absorbing the power of faith, Su Yu sent everyone away.
Next, Su Yu stored the statue on the second floor of the Rank Up Tower. Everyone on the island received an additional quest every day, which was to pray to the statue.
As for the prayer, Su Yu directly copied the original prayer from the Replica Deity Statue, but changed the god’s name.
If Su Yu had not discovered Brahma early, with Brahma’s skill, Su Yu might not have been able to take him down easily.
If he had gone to the Great Zhou Dynasty just a bit later, the entire dynasty would have developed into Brahma’s faith base.
It was not impossible, because the effect of this snowball was extremely terrifying.
After all, Brahma’s skill in traveling through the world was simply even more ridiculous than the Buddhist edification methods.
Su Yu was now sitting cross-legged on the sixth floor of the Rank Up Tower. He directly absorbed a wisp of power of faith. He wanted to see the exact effect of this thing.
[Power of Faith]
Description: A magical power condensed from the thoughts of living beings. It represents the wishes of all living beings. It can be used to build a divine kingdom, burn and ignite divine flames, or burn to increase the power of martial arts techniques and increase cultivation speed…
Note: Faith is poisonous. Please don’t use too much Power of Faith to cultivate, or you will be harmed. If you can get rid of the complicated thoughts of living beings in the Power of Faith, you can use them for cultivation without worry.
After gaining insight into the Power of Faith, Su Yu casually absorbed it into his sea of consciousness. Immediately, Su Yu realized that the speed at which the spiritual crystal condensed spiritual power had received a boost.
Originally, its speed was like an old cow pulling a carriage, but its speed was now similar to a four-wheeled car.
However, Su Yu also discovered the drawback of the Power of Faith. As indicated by the insight skill, if one used this thing to cultivate, they would be corroded by the thoughts in the Power of Faith.
Even fanatics like Ao Yan could not help but have some complicated thoughts in the Power of Faith, let alone the amalgamation of numerous Power of Faith.
“I have to think of a way to see if I can get rid of the thoughts of living beings hidden in the Power of Faith.”
Su Yu, who had stopped cultivating, closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.
In the end, Su Yu planned to try and see if he could use the power of the Illusion God’s Eye to throw the thoughts of those living beings into the space of the Illusion God’s Eye.
If he succeeded, Su Yu might be able to use this opportunity to increase the power of the Illusion God’s Eye.
Thinking this far, Su Yu immediately began his experiment. After all, there was nothing to lose even if he failed.. Why not try? He might even succeed!
