Chapter 651: Power of Faith
Chapter 651: Power of Faith
A month later, as the surge of will erupted in fervor, it finally broke through the cocoon and evolved.
Entering his origin space, Nash saw the elemental spirits were still the same as before.
"Did nothing change?"
Besides feeling their auras become a little stronger, there didn’t seem to be any change.
"Lord God!"
Seeing him, the elemental spirits quickly surrounded him in excitement.
"Did you feel any different?" Nash asked, patting their heads.
"Hmm, it seemed we are able to absorb this energy," one of them answered, releasing the energy it had just absorbed.
"What is this?"
Although similar to the power of will, Nash felt something different about it.
Like two sides of a coin, it had the purest and the darkest power of thought.
"What is this power?"
Curious, Nash began to experiment with what kind of energy they absorbed.
Days passed as he tested how it reacted to different things, its recoverability, various uses, and whether it could bring any harm.
After weeks of tinkering with the energy, Nash finally reached a conclusion.
"It’s indeed a branch of the power of will: the power of faith," Nash deduced, naming the new kind of energy.
The power of faith and will were different.
If the power of will was spiritual trust, the unconscious belief of people, then the power of faith was the psychological factor that an individual knowingly worshiped.
In short, one was provided by spirit and the other by thought.
From their sources, one could determine what’s more beneficial and what isn’t.
The power of will was a malleable force that could do anything one could think of.
Of course, the power of faith was also not to be underestimated.
It had the same power to materialize and realize everything one had in mind, albeit with a twist.
Using either the purest or darkest power of thought, the resulting outcome would be a little different from the intended purpose.
If one were not careful, the resulting effect might even cause harm to the user.
"So it evolved to absorb the power of faith, huh?" Nash came back to his senses.
While it was cumbersome to use the power of will, it was perfect for offense and defense.
It might even be better than the power of will in this regard.
Furthermore, unlike the power of will that was too slow to realize, the power of faith was like a reservoir that could be replenished regularly.
Even if he used it without regard for conservation, it would be replenished the next day.
"Did we become stronger, Lord God?" the elemental spirit asked, seeing Nash smile.
"You did very well! You’ve also grown a few inches," Nash praised.
"Huh? We grew taller by a few inches?"
Forgetting about their new ability, each elemental spirit began to compare their heights.
Watching this, the newly born elementals could only look on in envy.
Because they had just been born, they were only the size of toddlers who could walk.
Meanwhile, having learned the mechanics of their new ability, Nash talked to them for a little while, then returned to the real world.

Returning to training, Nash noticed another effect of the evolution of the power of will.
As the number of elemental spirits increased to 100, the boost it gave his training reached 700 times!
Coupled with the Void Administrator buff, Nash could directly increase any of his training efficiency by 800 times!
"Let me put this into my void training regimen," Nash decided.
His efficiency in elemental and soul sublimation was more than enough.
He could sublimate an element in less than three days and increase his soul sublimation rate by 8,650% at the same time.
Any faster and it might interfere with his control of strength.
On the other hand, the increase of his primal void energy was as slow as a turtle.
Even with the boost from the void training buff, he could only condense about 3% primal void energy each day.
With the additional boost from the power of will, however, things were different.
Feeling his primal void energy increase by 1% each hour, Nash couldn’t help but smile.
Primal void energy was not only the foundation of all his power; it was also a substance that could strengthen his physique beyond the limit.
Barely containing this primordial energy, it slowly increased his physique in proportion to its power.
The benefit of having more people was truly immense!
Not only with the power of will, but also in production and military might!
While Nash was deep in seclusion, the doubling of the population gave a surge of vitality to production.
Previously, before Nash left, there were only about 30 million individuals who had purity over 90%, which helped in the production of neon battleships.
However, with the surge in population, their number increased to over 50 million.
With talents scattered everywhere, just a little guidance from the purity assistance module, they easily achieved 90% purity!
At this rate, given enough battleship production capacity, they could reconfigure 5 million without any issue.
After becoming familiar for a while, they might be able to produce 6–7 million!
Of course, this assumed there were enough production lines producing battleships.
Otherwise, no matter how many runic engravers there were, it would be useless if they had nothing to work on.
With everything going in the right direction, time began to pass in a blink.

Three months later, after Nash came out of his training for another blood transfusion, he noticed Camilla’s and Elizabeth’s auras fluctuating.
"Are they about to advance?"
It had been a while since Camilla and Elizabeth reached the peak of the tier 5 realm.
Sublimating all 1,618 elements and reaching peak soul sublimation rate, they should have advanced long ago.
However, with the conflict in their bloodline, they were stuck in a bottleneck for a while.
Fortunately, as their strength still increased with each bloodline transfusion, they weren’t in a hurry to advance.
Now it seemed their bloodline, void energy, soul, and will had reached a unified state, allowing them to advance.
"I wonder how strong they will be after advancing..."
Filled with anticipation, Nash watched silently at the side, ready to assist them once a complication arose.
