Chapter 1881 Faith Energy
Hence, Jared aimed to calm Austin down by restating the purpose of his being in Norham.
“What a pity. I was hoping you could stay a few more days in Norham. Nonetheless, please feel free to drop by
Norham whenever you're free. This place is far and isolated, but the sceneries here are not bad. However, we are
lacking in terms of resources.”
Despite what he said, Austin was actually grinning from ear to ear.
Regardless of the reason behind Jared's arrival, his advent had indeed caused Austin considerable mental stress.
“Mr. Zagorski, there is something I wish to know, but I'm not sure if it is an appropriate question to ask,” Jared said.
“There's no need to behave so courteously around me, Mr. Chance. Please ask away. I'll tell you everything I know,”
Austin answered with utmost sincerity.
Jared asked curiously, “Mr. Zagorski, since the Zagorski family is established in Norham, a place with scarce
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtresources, may I know how you cultivate? I heard you cultivate by absorbing this entire city's natural energy.”
Austin burst out laughing after listening to Jared's inquiry.
“Hahaha! Do you believe in that hearsay too, Mr. Chance? Who am I to have the capacity to absorb the city's
natural energy? Those are just some fake rumors circulating in public. All I'm doing is utilizing my status to soak up
some citizens' faith energy. As Norham's mayor, it is still within my power to have every household install a statue
of me in their residence. Moreover, my ancestors passed down a set of techniques that enabled me to cultivate
using faith energy from the crowd. That said, the little amount of energy is far from helpful. If one truly wishes to
strengthen one's abilities, one will still need to rely on a large number of resources. If I'm really able to take in
Norham's natural energy, I won't still be cooped up in this small border city,” Austin explained to Jared.
“Faith energy...”
Clarity washed over Jared. This technique that's passed down in the Zagorski family seems similar to the skill used
by the blood demon on Encanta Island previously. That blood demon also relied on the mass to worship his statue to
absorb their spiritual energy.
However, he didn't share Austin's belief about faith energy being inefficacious in boosting one's cultivation.
Austin found faith energy to be impotent because Norham was too small and had too few citizens. In addition, those
citizens might not revere him to a great extent, so the effect of faith energy felt negligible to Austin, but what if the
faith energy was amassed from people living in a large city with a dense population, a country, or even the whole
world?
With such a large number of contributors, the intensity of the faith energy would undoubtedly be substantial.
Nevertheless, convincing many people to worship one person would be arduous.
Still, Jared was beginning to harbor an interest in a technique like that.
While Jared was chatting with Austin, Jessica had returned to Demon Sect.
“Mr. Sullivan, bad news.”
She sought Patrick out upon reaching Demon Sect.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What's wrong, Jessica?” Patrick furrowed his brows slightly.
“Mr. Chance was taken away by the Zagorski family's scion, Kayson. Hurry up and think of a way to rescue him!”
she said.
“He was taken away by someone from the Zagorski family? Why do they want to lay hold of him?” he asked in
bafflement.
Jessica could only recount the conflict with Kayson to Patrick, but she didn't mention the matter regarding how
Flaxseed had taken advantage of her.
“This scion from the Zagorski family is such a fool. I can't believe he has the audacity to capture Jared,” Patrick
chirped.
Noticing his nonchalance and amusement, Jessica asked in puzzlement, “Mr. Sullivan, hurry up and send someone
to rescue Mr. Chance. Aren't we planning to collaborate with him?”
“Don't worry, Jared will be fine. If he can't even handle a little clan like the Zagorski family, what's the point of us
working together with him? I'm sure he'll be all right, but the same couldn't be said for the Zagorski family. You
should go back to where you came from. Otherwise, Jared won't be able to open the door to the secret realm on
his own,” Patrick elaborated calmly.
