“The Power of Faith is so powerful here, but sadly, we’re unable to absorb it,” sighed Black Puppy on the side with disappointment in its eyes.
Sky-Devouring Snake’s face was also filled with disappointment, if it was a godly beast’s Power of Faith, then they would definitely be able to absorb it.
Unfortunately, it was the Sky God’s Power of Faith, which only the western Sky Gods could absorb.
Qingfeng had only heard of the Power of Faith, but he didn’t know what its use was.
However, he knew that this Power of Faith was very strong, and of great use, as the two godly beasts’ face filled with disappointment.
“Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, what does this Power of Faith do, and why do you want it so much?” Qingfeng asked with a frown.
Black Puppy sighed and explained, “The Power of Faith is a massive source of energy. Basically, it contains more energy than vital essence and vitality stones. Once a Sky God or godly beast sucks in enough Power of Faith, they can awaken super powers.”
Awaken super powers?
Qingfeng’s face filled with shock when he heard Black Puppy.
Aside from self-cultivation techniques, martial arts, chants, vitality stones, arrays, sword techniques, blade techniques, talisman scripts, elixirs, and weapons, there was a type of forbidden martial technique called the super power.
Super powers were a powerful special technique that could be awakened or trained by a special group of people.
For example, the third eye of the Cyclops god could see through everything, just as the two-eyed clairvoyance god could see all within billions of miles. A hear-all god could hear everything within billions of miles. These powers were all called super powers.
Black Puppy’s super power was its dog nose. It could easily detect any energy, no matter how far, and find its location, as long as it had smelled it once.
Sky-Devouring Snake’s super power was swallowing, such that it could devour the opponent’s energy and turn it into its own.
Certainly, the Sky-Devouring Snake’s ability was not as powerful as Qingfeng’s Devourer Bloodline, but it was close enough.
Qingfeng had recently awoken a type of super power called clairvoyance, from the golden eyeball he acquired inside the Black Lotus Saint cave, and it helped him to see through things.
However, his power was still weak, and he could only see within a meter for now, but he could clearly see through one’s clothing.
As Qingfeng and the others entered the first floor of the Pope’s Pagoda, they encountered the suppression of the Power of Faith. They felt that their powers and techniques had been limited by the power.
Qingfeng tried to channel his vital essence, and he realized that the speed was at least three times slower than normal.
In addition, Qingfeng was unable to even fly up into the air.
Due to the suppression of the Power of Faith, he could only walk on the ground at a very slow pace, as if millions of kilograms of rocks were on his back.
Black Puppy said, “Qingfeng there are many martial and self-cultivation techniques that you can’t use. You also cannot fly, so you have to walk step by step towards the stairs. These are Faith arrays set by the Sky God back then, so unless you’ve reached the saint or immortal level, you won’t be able to crack it.”
Qingfeng nodded because he knew Black Puppy was right. He could never crack the Power of Faith when he was only on the seventh level of the Spirit Emperor Realm.
The Power of Faith was accumulated over several thousand years and was the power of people’s thoughts. It was the spirit energy of countless western citizens’ beliefs and contained unbelievable power.
Qingfeng’s spirit power was very strong, so he could hear some of these people’s thoughts and conversations amongst the Power of Faith.
Some prayed to the Sky God for a long life, some for their own prosperity, some for their children, some for their health, while some even begged to become the wealthiest or most powerful man.
Qingfeng took back his spirit energy and stopped listening to other’s thoughts, because these were only thoughts of other people that were unrelated to him. He was here for the monarch grade vitality stones.
Just as Qingfeng was about to move forward with Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake, countless black knights rushed out from the inside.
These black knights looked just like the ones from the outside, but instead of long spears in their hands, they held large blades and were death-sworn soldiers.
The Power of Faith didn’t suppress these death-sworn divine knights, because they were part of the Pope’s Pagoda defense force and were servants of the Sky God.
The sworn divine knights swung the black blades in their hands, forming rays and rays of sharp energy that soared into the sky and charged towards Qingfeng, Black Puppy, and Sky-Devouring Snake.
Qingfeng’s face changed; since he couldn’t fly into the sky, he had to stand still and could only defend or attack passively.
He waved the Fire Emperor Sword in his hands, slashed a curve around and split all the attackers’ blades in two.
Then, Qingfeng waved his hand again to slice all of the ten sword soldiers’ necks off, as they fell to the ground and died.
Although Qingfeng had killed a dozen sworn soldiers, there were still a few dozen left. When they saw Qingfeng’s power, they were scared to charge up close.
These sworn divine knights soared into the air and threw their long blades onto the ground. Then they pulled out black arrows and bows to attack from afar in the sky.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh…
Over ten arrows shot from the sky towards Qingfeng and the others.
Qingfeng’s face changed, he was too far from these sworn soldiers. The opponents were hovering up in the air, and his attack was unable to be unleashed due to the suppression from the Power of Faith.
Qingfeng, Black Puppy, and Sky-Devouring Snake all activated their internal energy and formed a defensive light beam to block the attack of those arrows.
The immortal arrows were extremely sharp as they tore big holes in the air and fiercely collided with Qingfeng and the others’ defensive light beam, making loud booming noises.
However Qingfeng and the others’ defensive light beam was also very powerful, and the arrows failed to shoot through it.
The several death sworn soldiers’ faces changed up in the sky. They never thought that their arrow attacks could be blocked by Qingfeng’s defensive light beam.
They once used the very same arrows to turn a powerful eight level spirit emperor into a porcupine.
These sworn soldiers were still knowledgeable enough to see that Qingfeng was only a seventh level spirit emperor master. He wasn’t very strong, but his actual fighting ability was clearly higher than his current cultivation level at the seventh level of the Spirit Emperor Realm.
