Raphael nodded in satisfaction at the answer. "Arthur" was smart enough to make a decision in such a short time. It seemed that he would be a puppet worth cultivating in the future. Raphael did not think that this ant would have the guts to brush off a supreme being like him.
Ben Hong, who was prepared to make a move, calmed down. She was very clear that this "human" was not someone who was willing to be controlled by others. His purpose of coming to the Holy Mountain was not to become the Holy Son or the Pope. Such an answer must mean that he had other intentions.
Sure enough, Chen Rui said, "However, before that, I have something to report to sir. I originally wanted to report this matter to sir. It just so happens that sir is here today …"
"Make it short." Raphael's voice was calm but dignified.
"It's like this … when I entered the Sacred Mountain today, His Holiness Vladis asked me to show the Three Holy Relics of Light. As a result, the Three Holy Relics triggered the power of God's Grace. The feeling I got from the power of God's Grace was … a special resonance power. It seemed to have something to do with the Three Holy Relics. Even after the shocking power disappeared, the power of God's Grace still existed in my memory. It was a very mysterious power. It was as vast and boundless as the stars in the sky. I can't describe it with words. "
"You can actually feel that kind of power …" Raphael's eyes opened abruptly. The silver pupils emitted a burning light that contained terrifying deterrence. Chen Rui instinctively shuddered. He quickly bowed his head and bowed. His body trembled slightly in cooperation. He looked like he was too shocked to speak.
Raphael stared at Chen Rui for a moment and retracted his deterrence. "Continue."
"Yes, my lord. Under … under the stimulation of this power, I can feel that the absorption speed of the ancient alchemy civilization's spiritual imprint has increased by more than ten times! Moreover, it has almost completely fused with my soul. If I forcefully remove it … I might be in danger. "
Raphael frowned. Chen Rui continued, "Sir Raphael, some people are willing to be unknown for a lifetime. Some people can't stand the loneliness of being ignored. They would rather pursue that moment of brilliance. I have just failed once. I will never tolerate another failure. So, I have made up my mind to bet this life. If I can't soar to the sky … I will disappear. "
"Well said." Raphael's silver eyes showed a hint of appreciation. "I have seen your determination. If you have anything to say, say it all at once."
"My idea is … to first try to use that special resonance power to completely absorb the power of the spiritual imprint of the ancient alchemy civilization. Because I have only absorbed nearly half of the power, which is the imprint of mechanics, if I can completely absorb the imprint, then the soul power and all the external forces absorbed before will all be turned into my own strength. My strength will naturally improve by leaps and bounds. Not only that, I will also master the manufacturing method of black potions. As long as I reach a certain level, I can manufacture the highest black potions such as resurrection potion and longevity potion! "
Raphael was slightly moved. At present, the church had a pharmaceutics grand master, Archbishop Pavaro of the Holy Mountain. He could configure two Eternal potions. He was already the strongest pharmaceutics grand master in the human world, but he was far from being comparable to the grand master who could configure resurrection potion and longevity potion. Once Arthur could become a dual grand master of mechanics and pharmaceutics, or even the highest grand master, the benefits to the entire church would be self-evident in terms of reputation and benefits.
Moreover, letting "Arthur" abandon his identity as a mechanic grand master, directly transform into his believer, and use the power of "baptism" to forcibly increase his strength would also consume a considerable part of Raphael's own strength and faith power. It would be great if he could help "Arthur" increase his own power without any effort. When the time came, he would only need to bestow some power of faith to "Arthur" based on his strength, and he would be able to drive the Crown of Thorns to the desired effect.
"In fact, before sir came, I wanted to try this. I made some changes to the magic circle outside the Hall of Holy Light. I wanted to use this to amplify the perception of the resonance and further accelerate the integration of the alchemy civilization's spiritual imprint. However, due to the short time since I arrived, I still couldn't fully crack the mystery of the magic circle. Therefore, the changes were only partially completed. If there is anything presumptuous, please forgive me, sir. If I still can't succeed with the help of the power of God's Blessing … "
At this point, Chen Rui gritted his teeth and showed a firm expression, "I'm willing to forcibly erase the spiritual imprint of the ancient alchemy civilization and make the riskiest attempt."
"Compared with your unexpected ability, I admire your unreserved frankness more. I hope that in front of me … this complete frankness can always be maintained." Who was Raphael? He had long discovered the changes to the magic circle outside. Now that "Arthur" took the initiative to confess this matter, Raphael was even more convinced.
"Sir's will is my lifelong commitment," Chen Rui knew that Raphael's mind had loosened, so he immediately showed a humble expression.
"If that's the case …" Raphael had already made up his mind, "Close your eyes. I'll take you to a place."
Chen Rui only felt his heart pounding. He faintly guessed where Raphael was taking him. He tried his best to stabilize his emotions and closed his eyes.
After a moment of dizziness, Raphael's voice sounded, "Open your eyes."
Chen Rui opened his eyes and saw a large hall in front of him. It was surrounded by light and exuded a vast and boundless aura of power. This aura contained the infinite mysteries of the growth of all things in the universe.
Although it was not the first time he had seen this Divine Hall of Light, it still gave Chen Rui a feeling of shock. It was as if he was as small as a grain of sand in the sea. Even the origin in any of the silver boxes he had seen before did not have such a feeling. This was because this was the complete origin of creation — the Book of Creation!
"This, this, this …" Chen Rui magnified his astonishment and seemed incoherent, "There … there is such a strong aura of divine favor here!"
"Yes, this is the Divine Hall of Light at the peak of the Holy Mountain, where the God of Light once descended. This is also the largest forbidden area of the entire Holy Mountain. Even the Pope and the two patriarchs need special permission to enter this place. There are countless dangers along the way. If I hadn't brought you here, you wouldn't have been able to cross the first step at the foot of the mountain. Not to mention you, even a super strong person who has surpassed the Saint-level can't forcibly break through the sealing force along the way. "
Chen Rui was very clear that Raphael's words were not alarmist talk. There was actually a star left behind here. Back when he was lucky enough to retrieve the Breeze Shadow Boots from the Divine Hall of Light, he had risked using the stealth skill to return once. However, he could not see the Divine Hall of Light as easily as now. There was an extremely powerful power of ancient runes all around him. Not only did it block his vision, but it also sealed the space. If he had not retreated in time, he would have been lost here.
"Sir Raphael's care and trust make me feel terrified. I can only repay it with the purest loyalty." Chen Rui nodded. "Then, may I try … the three holy objects?"
Raphael nodded. Chen Rui took a deep breath and the three holy objects appeared on his body at the same time. This time, it caused the entire Holy Mountain to be shocked as at the beginning, but the resonance in his heart was ten times stronger than before!
Chen Rui had now completely integrated the consciousness of "Arthur". His soul power was unprecedentedly pure and powerful. Coupled with the special effect of the three holy objects, if he could stay here to comprehend, then he had full confidence to master the origin of creation. All he lacked was time.
But now that Raphael was here, he couldn't show any flaws in any case. Otherwise, the "welfare" that was close at hand would become the most terrifying weapon. Ben Hong also understood this. He resisted the strong temptation and tried his best to restrain his breath.
While Chen Rui desperately used [Deep Analysis] to engrave the memory imprint, he pretended to fall into some kind of contemplation. The power breath on his body began to change and jump constantly.
After a period of time, in Raphael's senses, Chen Rui's original warrior-level strength actually began to change. He was promoted to master-level in one fell swoop!
Raphael's eyes flashed. Although this kind of strength was not worth mentioning in his eyes, it had extraordinary significance for "Arthur" who had the inheritance of the ancient alchemy civilization. When he gave "Arthur" the power of light last time, it couldn't improve the other party's strength. Now, the power of the Book of Creation could actually make "Arthur" break through.
It seemed that what "Arthur" said previously was right. The origin of creation could greatly accelerate his fusion speed.
After Chen Rui "broke through" to the level of Demon King, the three holy objects on his body were put away again. However, he didn't talk to Raphael. Instead, he seemed to have entered a certain state. A potion test bench appeared in front of him, and he began to quickly configure the potions.
At first, his technique seemed a little jerky. He seemed to be adapting to something. Later on, his movements were smooth like flowing water, faintly revealing an unfathomable momentum. Bottles of potions were quickly configured.
Red healing potion, green spirit potion, orange antidote …
With the proficiency of the movements, the final color of the potion was white!
White potion was the symbol of a potion master. It seemed that in this short period of time, "Arthur", who was originally a mechanic grand master, actually became a potion master!
Even though Raphael was well-informed, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised. Although mechanics and pharmaceutics were both two major disciplines of alchemy, they were two completely different fields of knowledge. A double master was extremely rare in the history of alchemy, let alone a grand master. Although "Arthur" only showed the standard of a potion master, judging from the "facts" just now, he had every reason to believe that "Arthur" could become a double grand master of potion and mechanics, or even an unprecedented double grand master. This time, he really picked up a treasure.
"Haha!" "Arthur" raised the bottle of white potion that had just been configured and laughed. His laughter was full of vigor. Suddenly, he realized something and quickly showed a terrified expression, "Sir Raphael, please forgive me for losing my composure. I was just too excited …"
"It's okay." Raphael asked calmly, "What about the spiritual imprint?"
"Most of the spiritual imprint has been fused. The strange thing is that although it's not completely fused, under the effect of a special power, my strength has been improved qualitatively. Even if I'm just immersed in this breath of creation, it can greatly speed up my understanding. It's an indescribable feeling. It seems that something is being 'bred' … Uh, or 'created'. No, it should be …"
"Creation." Raphael said lightly.
"Yes! It's' Creation '! " Chen Rui deliberately led Raphael to say it himself. He said, "Today, I'm actually just digesting the previous power of understanding. The speed will be relatively slower later, but as long as I can continue to accept the power of 'Creation', I'll be able to fuse the spiritual imprint completely in two months at most. No, maybe only one month. By then, whether it's alchemy or strength, they'll reach an unprecedented level."
Raphael nodded secretly. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, and the white potion was real, he would not have believed that the Book of Creation could have such an effect. However, the stronger the ability of "Arthur", the more advantageous it would be for the Church of Light and the three angels to control the faith. Judging from the ability that this prince had shown in the Jinyao Territory, it was likely that he would push the Church of Light to a new height in the future.
Taking a step back, even if he could not succeed, there was still time to use the last method in two months at most.
"If I can succeed, please allow me to complete the ceremony of transforming into a Temple Knight in three months' time. Then, under the witness of everyone … including that Rex, I'll publicly accept the baptism and become your most loyal believer." Chen Rui bowed deeply to Raphael. This was advancing in order to retreat, delaying the time of becoming a believer to three months later.
Raphael nodded slightly. "I agree to your request. Your loyalty will be reciprocated. I'll now give you a privilege, and that is to comprehend in front of this Temple of Light. There's a special badge here. As long as you follow the method I've taught you, you can come here through the exempted space channel to comprehend. The time limit is two hours each time. After two hours, you'll be transported back to where you came from. However, you have to remember two things. First, this space channel can only be entered by yourself. Second, you can only stay where you are. Do not approach or try to enter the Temple of Light. If you violate any of these, then there's only one undeniable consequence, death. "
"Thank you for your kindness." Chen Rui suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and respectfully received the badge with both hands.
"Don't let me down." Raphael glanced at him. "After you complete the integration of the spiritual imprint, go to the Blessed Palace to find Eudora and test the prepared power. In any case, there must be no mistakes in the ceremony of transformation in three months' time."
If it was an outstanding person like Ben Hong in front of him, Raphael would never trust him so easily. However, since Rex The Great announced that he was no longer his father and son, the Holy Mountain of Light had become the only way out for "Arthur".
If it were not for the Crown of Thorns, Raphael, who had absolute power, would not pay attention to this lowly existence that could be erased at any time. He thought of himself as a flying dragon in the sky. Why would he waste energy to consider the thoughts of an ant on the ground?
Therefore, Raphael did not have any more doubts.
"I understand. My Lord. "
Watching Raphael's figure gradually disappear in the air, Chen Rui immediately turned his eyes to the Temple of Light in front of him. That look was like a wretched uncle looking at a loli who wanted to see a goldfish.
