Douluo Continent: The Underworld Emperor Halosa Lets Three Fly

Chapter 236 The Power of Faith

Harosa extended a finger and gently stroked the tip of her pert nose, laughing, "Of course it's the power of faith. My Goddess of Life, you should be familiar with this."

Ya Li's martial soul is the Prayer Angel, and her strength increased greatly after absorbing the power of faith.

She suddenly realized and nodded: "The power of faith—indeed. Although it seems ethereal and mysterious, and difficult to quantify directly, if it can be accumulated to a massive extent over a long period of time, the combined power of thought and will will be a tremendous force capable of shaking the rules and even shaping a god."

As a Holy Spirit Douluo once revered by countless people, she deeply understands this. Becoming a god through faith is an ancient and powerful path.

Harosa nodded and analyzed, "In the Douluo Continent today, only a few years have passed, yet it has experienced a series of earth-shattering changes, including the full-scale invasion of the Abyss, the destruction of the Spirit Pagoda, the rise and fall of soul beasts, and the manifestation of god-level power. The situation on the continent has changed drastically, and ordinary people, even low-level soul masters, are all feeling fear, confusion, and unease about the future."

"At such times, people's hearts are most in need of reliance and guidance—they desperately need a person, or rather, a true god who can bring hope, stability, order, and peace," to govern everything.

Upon hearing this, Yali's eyes lit up, and she said without hesitation, "I think you're perfect. You ended the threat of the abyss, brought new life to the plane, and are the strongest."

Harosa chuckled and shook his head, his tone tinged with self-deprecation: "Me? Yali, have you forgotten my origins? In most people's minds, I, Harosa, am a 'leader' of evil spirit masters with inextricable ties to the Holy Spirit Cult."

"Even if I am now the King of Gods, to make people forget the past and sincerely believe in me? It's as difficult as climbing to heaven."

The power of faith requires heartfelt recognition and reverence; fear and dread are not good things.

He gently stroked Ya Li's long hair, his gaze becoming earnest and tender: "I'm glad you have this intention. But my path is reincarnation, is mastering the laws themselves, not relying on the path of faith. And this chosen one," there is one most suitable candidate—you, Ya Li. Goddess of Life, the core of life in the Douluo plane, the de facto ruler of the plane, your very existence symbolizes vitality, healing, and hope."

Looking into Harosa's eyes, filled with unwavering trust and devotion, Yali felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She buried her face in his chest and softly replied, "Okay, I'll listen to you. But—I'll still use the title 'Goddess of Life,' it sounds nice."

She seems to have a slight obsession with her title, feeling that it better suits her image.

Suddenly, Ya Li seemed to remember something, and looked up, her tone becoming somewhat worried and practical: "Oh right, there's another thorny problem. Before the Soul Beast race left, they almost completely uprooted the Spirit Pagodas. Now, the few remaining peripheral Spirit Pagodas on the land are simply unable to support the cultivation needs of the massive number of Soul Masters."

"Many Soul Masters, especially the younger generation, find it extremely difficult to acquire Soul Spirits. They either have to deeply explore the potential of their existing Soul Spirits or risk going to the perilous ocean to hunt Sea Soul Beasts, which is both costly and risky. Mismatched Martial Soul attributes are also common. If we can solve this fundamental problem for Soul Masters, we will surely reap immeasurable power of faith."

Harosa commented, "Gu Yuena's move to cut off the enemy's supply lines is indeed ruthless. If she had more time, even the sea spirit beasts would likely have met their end, truly severing the foundation of soul masters. However—" He changed his tone, becoming more relaxed, "We are gods, we have plenty of methods, why should we worry like mortals?"

Yali rolled her eyes at him, annoyed, and said coquettishly, "You think you're so smart! You're not planning to use such a simple and crude method as a 'divinely bestowed soul ring,' are you?"

Harosa gave him a "why not?" look: "Of course, why not? For the God Realm, the cost of creating some low-level divinely bestowed soul rings is negligible."

Ya Li shook her head in opposition, rationally analyzing, "Of course not! Do you know how many Soul Masters there are on Douluo Continent right now? The base is enormous! Although a single God-given Soul Ring doesn't consume much divine power, multiplied by this huge base, it will become a considerable burden in the long run, directly affecting the accumulation of the God Realm and our own cultivation progress! We can't do something like draining the pond to catch all the fish."

Seeing her seriousness, Harosa abandoned his joking attitude and rubbed his chin: "That's true, it's only a temporary solution. So you mean—reboot the soul system?"

"Yes!" Ya Li nodded affirmatively. "The path of Soul Spirits is essentially an efficient and humane utilization of Soul Beast energy and Soul Power, with unlimited potential and the ability to generate many possibilities. The sea area of ​​Douluo Star is much larger than its land area, and the number of sea Soul Beasts is extremely large, with numerous races. We can build upon this foundation to continue our in-depth research and optimization of Soul Spirit Conversion Technology, making it more efficient and more widespread."

Harosa understood Yali's intention and agreed, "That makes sense. The core technology of Soul Spirits is not complicated for god-level beings. I can pass on a more complete knowledge system, select and cultivate a group of talents specializing in this on the Douluo Continent, and establish a new and more standardized Soul Spirit system."

"This matter is best left to you to lead and implement. It is another universal achievement that benefits all Soul Masters and stabilizes the foundation of the plane, and it will greatly help you to gather the power of faith."

The two exchanged a smile, and a plan concerning the future cultivation system and faith structure of Douluo Continent began to take shape during their relaxed conversation.

The brief moment of tenderness and discussion within the God King's Palace has already set a clear tone for the future of the Douluo Continent.

For Harosa, the Reincarnation God-King who is well-versed in the essence of the soul, it is not difficult to innovate on the basis of the original soul spirit technology and create a new soul spirit system that is more efficient, more stable, and even contains a trace of the mystery of reincarnation and rebirth.

In just a few days, a complete technological system far beyond the current understanding of Douluo Continent was formed and engraved by him in a crystal that emitted a gentle soul fluctuation.

Harosa handed the crystal, which carried hope and change, to Ari, his eyes filled with trust and expectation.

Yali took the crystal, feeling the vast knowledge within it. She tiptoed and planted a gentle kiss on Harossa's lips, her golden eyes sparkling with playfulness and affection: "Alright, my husband, you must stay obediently in the divine realm~ I'll go to the mortal world now, to earn faith power for you—well, for us!"

She deliberately used some archaic terms, with a hint of coquetry in them.

Harosa chuckled at her sudden use of the word "husband" and her playful remark, reaching out to pinch her smooth cheek: "Go quickly and come back quickly, don't be playful. I'm not a three-year-old child, do you need to remind me like this?"

Ya Li playfully slapped his hand away, her face beaming with happiness. Her figure slowly faded away, having already passed through the dimensional portal and returned to Douluo Star.

Harosa watched her leave, the gentleness on his face gradually fading, replaced by a deep and calm expression.

He turned and walked towards the depths of the temple, the core of the Samsara God Realm. He needed to continue to comprehend the supreme laws of Samsara and constantly expand the limits of himself and the God Realm.
