Chapter 954 The Fourth Level of the Golden Crow

"The power of faith?"

Old Yan was slightly taken aback, and immediately realized that Su Ping had probably lost this battle because of the overwhelming difference in the power of faith. He chuckled and said, "Of course, the power of faith can be obtained from spiritual power. To be precise, the power of faith comes from the spiritual power of others, but it can only be given by others and cannot be forcibly plundered."

"Of course, nothing is absolute. In ancient times, some strange techniques were also born that could forcibly seize the faith of others. However, the final result was not so optimistic. Such techniques can be mastered quickly, but it is not recommended to practice them. They are also currently prohibited by the Federation. With your talent, you don't need to consider them."

"Plunder..."

Hearing him say that, Su Ping suddenly became a little worried.

The faith power that emerged within his domain was too strange. Could it be that he was plundering it unconsciously?

"Elder Yan, what is the principle behind the power domain?" Su Ping asked hurriedly.

Old Master Yan was a little surprised, not expecting him to veer off to such a big topic, but he still explained: "Power domain is the outward projection of spiritual power, the embodiment of 'momentum,' and momentum is a person's spirit and energy. Without strong spiritual control, momentum will be weak and it will be difficult to intimidate the opponent."

"When mental power reaches a certain level, it can form a domain of power. If I had to describe it, it would be similar to a domain of rules, or a mental domain."

"The spiritual realm?"

Su Ping's eyes flickered, and he asked, "Can the creatures that appear within that domain provide me with faith power?"

"Hmm?" Old Yan was taken aback and looked at him with some surprise. This question was rather profound. He said, "This question of yours was once raised by authoritative scholars in the Federation. After repeated experiments, the answer was negative. No matter what materializes within the domain, it is only a mental construct."

"And fictional things, without a physical form, cannot convey the power of faith."

"The power of faith can only be provided by living beings!"

"but……"

At this point, Elder Yan paused suddenly, his expression somewhat strange, and said, "The results of that experiment are not absolute. There is a theoretical result that is feasible: the beings that are materialized through spiritual manifestation within the domain are super beings that disregard time and space. Even if you are billions of light-years away, with layers of spatial barriers, as long as you can sense them, they can sense you and thus grant you faith power."

Su Ping was taken aback.

Ignoring the existence of time and space?

So... those sources of faith within his domain were provided to him by those beings?

Why?

He was somewhat stunned, and felt an even greater question arise.

He merely glanced at these creatures, memorized their appearance, and that was it. How could they possibly offer him the power of faith?

You must understand that you need to maintain a good relationship in order to provide strength for faith!

As for those creatures, Su Ping only glanced at them from afar. They might not even notice him, an ant. Even if they did, how could they possibly have any goodwill towards someone like him?

Seeing Su Ping frowning in thought, Elder Yan smiled and said, "To have such a wonderful idea so soon after coming into contact with the power of faith, you truly deserve to be called a genius. Geniuses always have many ideas that are beyond the reach of many foolish mortals."

Su Ping snapped out of his daze, glanced at Elder Yan, and suddenly realized that the strange phenomenon within his domain might not be easily revealed. After all, what the other party said was just a hypothesis, and he had actually accomplished it. If this were to spread, it would probably be even more frightening than winning the championship, or even the Heavenly Fate Realm's Refined Small World.

This will inevitably attract some scrutiny and detailed research.

"Why would those terrifying creatures I've seen be willing to give me their faith power..." Su Ping murmured to himself, unable to understand it at all.

After a long while, Su Ping suddenly thought of something and immediately asked, "Senior Yan, what realm are you referring to as this kind of existence that ignores time and space?"

Elder Yan wasn't surprised; it was normal for Su Ping to be so curious. He chuckled and said, "Reaching the Supreme God Realm is enough. You'll achieve the position of Eternal True God, which even time cannot erase. Unless you want to die, you'll basically be an immortal being."

Supreme Realm...

Su Ping was slightly taken aback, but not surprised.

However, having seen the Chaotic Netherworld and the Golden Crow's lair, Su Ping knew that there were even higher realms above the Supreme Realm, and the Supreme Realm was merely the starting point for achieving this.

Among the terrifying creatures Su Ping encountered in the Chaotic Necromancer Realm, some were, in his opinion, even more terrifying than the Supreme Beings.

Shaking his head, Su Ping stopped thinking about it. He felt it was a bit too much for him. No matter what, he couldn't understand why those beings projected within the domain would give him their faith power.

However, one thing is certain: with the faith power they bestow upon him, the faith power Su Ping wields will reach an extremely terrifying level.

"Perhaps, seeing these beings in their true forms again would suffice, but that would require another trip to the Chaotic Necromancer Realm. Besides, the previous encounter was a chance meeting due to a random death; given the vastness of the Chaotic Necromancer Realm, there's no guarantee we'd meet them again..."

Su Ping's eyes flickered, and he temporarily put the matter to himself.

The priority right now is to challenge myself into the top ten of the God Ranking as soon as possible, so that I can regain my freedom and return to the shop.

He thanked Elder Yan and returned to his cultivation room to consolidate his Starry Sky Realm power. At the same time, he continuously improved his small world, with rules filling it like pillars.

During his cultivation, Su Ping released his domain, which overlapped with the small world. He immediately felt a terrifying aura emanating from it, rippling out from the depths of the small world. At the same time, strands of extremely thick and powerful faith energy slowly drifted out from within.

Even a single wisp of this power of faith was like a mountain peak, giving Su Ping the feeling that his small world was being crushed.

"It truly gives me the strength of faith."

Su Ping was astonished. A scene from the virtual world was being recreated in reality. He immediately absorbed it without hesitation. As soon as he absorbed it, he realized that these powers of faith seemed to be wisps of light, like white mist, but in reality they were terrifyingly heavy.

The wisp of faith power here is equivalent to the total amount of faith power that Su Ping absorbed before!

You must understand, Su Ping is a celebrity now, with a resounding reputation throughout the universe. Countless people know and believe in him, but all of these people, including Su Ping's several battle pets combined, are not as numerous as a wisp of smoke drifting out from this domain!

Su Ping struggled to refine it, and he consumed nearly half of his star power just to refine a wisp of it. This was somewhat unbelievable. If he hadn't broken through to the Starry Sky Realm, he probably wouldn't have been able to refine it even after exhausting all his star power.

Su Ping grabbed handfuls of star stones to absorb, replenishing his star power. Star power also continuously flowed from the star array in the room, pouring into Su Ping's body. The effect of this top-notch star array was terrifying. Even an ordinary person lying here would have star power poured into their body, transforming them and enabling them to embark on the path of cultivation.

However, this method offers limited qualifications.

Time flies.

As Su Ping continued to consume star stones, he refined strands of faith power. After half a month, Su Ping finally completed the refinement of all 23 strands of faith power that floated out of his domain.

These forces of faith floated within his little world, like clouds and mist, appearing very soft and peaceful.

"I wonder how my current strength of faith compares to those Star Lords..." Su Ping opened his eyes, two beams of light flashing within them, a feeling of eagerness to try again, wanting to find that Clovis for another battle.

Just as he was about to set off, he suddenly remembered the materials for the Golden Crow Divine Demon Body that he had been searching for, wondering if he had collected them all.

As Su Ping left the palace, he immediately saw Old Man Yan outside, brewing tea and playing with several children. When the children saw Su Ping, they cried out and transformed into small beasts, scattering in all directions.

Su Ping was somewhat surprised; these little beasts were all at the Starry Sky Realm, yet they could actually transform into human form.

"Want to take on another challenge?"

Old Yan turned his head and saw Su Ping, and smiled slightly. Although he hadn't had much contact with him, he seemed to have figured out Su Ping's personality.

He was a battle maniac who was always either cultivating or taking on challenges. He quite liked this kind of personality. As a beast, although he had lived in the Federation with the God for countless years, he still believed in primal power in his bones. Only by constantly strengthening himself could he survive to the end.

"Let's go later."

Su Ping cupped his hands and said, "Senior, have you managed to gather all the cultivation materials I mentioned before?"

"Oh?"

Old Master Yan immediately thought of this matter. He had heard Su Ping mention it before, so he ordered people to search for it. With the highest level of collection, as long as it was not particularly rare, it would be found quickly.

"Let me ask."

"Old Yan said, then closed his eyes. After a few minutes, he opened his eyes and said, "You're lucky. You've found them. I remember that two of the materials are extremely rare and on the verge of extinction. Fortunately, the God's energy is great. If it were an ordinary person, or if you were to search for them yourself, you probably would never succeed in this lifetime."

Su Ping's eyes lit up with surprise and delight. He said, "Thank you, senior."

"You want it now?"

"Um!"

Old Yan didn't say much. He closed his eyes again, and a few minutes later, he flipped his palm over, revealing seven or eight boxes, each containing an extremely rare and precious medicine.

These are all materials for cultivating the fourth level of the Golden Crow Divine Demon Body!

If one masters the fourth level, their physical body will be comparable to that of a Star Lord, and they will awaken the innate skills of the Golden Crow clan!

Su Ping couldn't wait and quickly opened the boxes. Brilliant light burst forth from them. Some boxes, as soon as they were opened, emitted rainbow-like rays that shot straight into the sky. Inside was a luminous precious medicine, resembling a lingzhi mushroom or a heart.

Su Ping knew that this thing was called Blood Phoenix Crystal, something that could only be formed when an ancient Blood Phoenix died under special circumstances. Blood Phoenixes were extremely rare, let alone when they died under special circumstances.

Su Ping looked at each item one by one and found that they were indeed the materials he needed.

As expected of the supreme god-king, Su Ping only managed to find one or two of these materials when he asked Su Jin'er to help him search, but in this short period of time, he has gathered the rest.

It should be noted that Su Jin'er herself was a deity.

Su Ping took a deep breath, put away the materials, and thanked Elder Yan again. Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he took out the cultivation materials for the fifth level of the Golden Crow Divine Demon Body, drew their appearance and the origin of their names, and handed them to Elder Yan, saying, "Senior, I'll also trouble you to help me find these materials."

Old Yan raised an eyebrow, glancing at the materials. The more he looked, the more surprised he became. He said solemnly, "These materials are extremely rare. Even if a God-Consecrating Master were to help you search, it would be very difficult to find them. Although the Master has many forces at his disposal, he is not confident that he can find them all for you."

"I know, we'll find as much as we can," Su Ping said.

The materials for this fifth level are even rarer. Su Ping was only holding onto a sliver of hope, just trying to make up the numbers. He would collect as much as he could and figure out the rest himself.

After all, if he gathers all the materials and cultivates to the fifth level, his physical body will be comparable to that of a deified being.

"Okay," Old Yan agreed.

Su Ping didn't stay long and returned to the cultivation room.

He took out the materials he had obtained earlier, and laid them all out in front of him. He was a little excited, but after calming down a bit, he began to refine, absorb, and temper the materials.

Half a day later.

Inside the cultivation room, a muffled sound rang out, and the entire cultivation room turned an intense crimson red, as if flames were burning. The temperature inside the cultivation room reached an extremely terrifying level. If this were not a top-tier star array, the entire palace would have long since been burned to ashes under this high temperature.

Despite this, the star array is now showing signs of burning and damage.

The red light in the cultivation room originated from Su Ping.

At this moment, his body was extremely red, and his entire body was covered in blood-red sweat.

Inside his body, bones cracked and popped, his body was in turmoil, and his cells were constantly tearing and reorganizing, becoming stronger, and awakening a special power in the process of tearing and reorganizing.

Suddenly, Su Ping opened his eyes, and a tangible golden light shot out from them, carrying an extremely terrifying sharpness. His eyes were as sharp as a hawk's, as if they could see through the void.

The flames flickered in his pupils, but quickly subsided.

Subsequently, Su Ping's skin gradually changed from crimson to light red, and the high temperature in the cultivation room seemed to be released, quickly decreasing and being absorbed by Su Ping.

"Void Divine Flame!"

A ring of flames appeared on Su Ping's skin, burning against his skin and distorting the air with heat.

This is the divine fire of the Golden Crow clan, capable of burning everything, even burning through space. Most terrifyingly, it can even destroy the rules of time; where the flames scorch, the rules of time become ineffective!

If someone tries to imprison Su Ping using the rules of time, even if Su Ping doesn't master the rules of time, he can still erase the rules of time around him and regain his freedom with this Void Divine Flame.

Whoosh!

Su Ping left the cultivation room and went outside, where he saw Elder Yan leaning against the swing in the courtyard, resting with his eyes closed.

As Su Ping flew closer, Elder Yan opened his eyes. When he saw Su Ping, his usually calm eyes flickered, and he said, "You seem to have become stronger."

Su Ping smiled and said, "It's all thanks to the cultivation materials that you found for me, senior."

Old Yan examined him carefully and said, "There is a kind of aura in your body that makes people wary. I heard from my master that your bloodline is the Golden Crow clan from the ancient times? As expected of an ancient creature, even with your current cultivation, I can instinctively feel a sense of repulsion."
