Chapter 357 - Fer Principality
Chapter 357: Chapter 357 – Fer Principality
After a while, the golden-haired woman turned and left this place.
In a sense, she felt quite curious about Chen Heng, and asked him many questions. She had asked him much about his previous experiences, as if she was investigating him.
Of course, a big part of this was because of his appearance—after all, his current appearance was a bit too attractive.
After the golden-haired woman left, the room became quiet.
Chen Heng sat in the room by himself, and thinking to what the woman had said to him, he thought to himself.
“The Fer Principality… looks like much has changed while I was asleep.
Back when he had fallen unconscious, he had not monitored the external situation, because he knew that his basic safety was assured.
Even though he was going through a transformation and could not move, his body was now partially a law body, and was similar to the Origin Curse.
If anyone tried to attack him during his sleep, his Divinities would also awaken and protect him.
Of course, if that happened, the time it took for Chen Heng’s transformation would be extended.
However, at the very least, it made it so that he would be safe during this transformation.
Moreover, back then, his big sister Chen Rou had been there.
That was why he had ben at ease to sleep.
Now, it seemed that some things had happened while he was asleep.
Relative to the Tiancheng Nation, the Fer Principality was quite far away, and was controlled by other powers.
Chen Heng could immediately tell that he definitely was not here under Chen Rou and the others’ wishes.
In that case, it must have been external forces.
However, Chen Heng remained calm as he silently looked around.
To Chen Heng, whether it was the Tiancheng Nation or the Fer Principality, there was no difference.
After all, there was nothing that could stop him.
“All of my divine energy is gone.” Chen Heng sat up as he sensed the changes in his body.
While he was asleep, his body went through some big changes.
His body was no longer just a body of flesh and blood anymore.
Even though he still looked the same from outside, there was now law energy flowing through him.
Apart from this, Chen Heng’s divine energy had mostly been used up—after all, the transformation had required large amounts of energy.
However, this was not a big deal to Chen Heng.
Divine energy came from faith energy, and as long as those worshippers of the Holy Mother still remained, they would continuously provide him with faith energy, which he could convert into divine energy.
“Looks like coming here is not too bad…” Chen Heng thought to himself.
After that massive battle, Chen Heng had finished the primary steps of becoming the Holy Son in the Tiancheng Nation.
It was not just the Changyuan City, but many other places could see what had happened.
He had essentially caused a miracle.
With these people, faith towards the Holy Son would gradually spread, and replace the Holy Mother.
However, that was only within the Tiancheng Nation.
Outside the Tiancheng Nation, the people’s faith towards the Holy Mother still had not changed.
This was something that he had to deal with.
As such, coming here was not too bad.
Soon, some soft footsteps sounded out.
Hearing this, Chen Heng turned and saw an elder walk in.
The elder was dressed in black robes and looked very withered. Seeing Chen Heng, he bowed as he said respectfully, “Esteemed Holy Son, you’re awake?”
Chen Heng raised his eyebrows as he looked at the elder and said, “We seem to have met before… was it at the church?”
He immediately recognised the elder—it was one of the two Curse Bearers who had often come to the church.
“You recognise me?” Hearing Chen Heng’s words, the elder seemed quite surprised.
Chen Heng’s sermons were exceptional, and were attended by many people.
He never thought that Chen Heng would recognise him.
However, that was not important. Standing there, he smiled and replied, “That’s right. Holy Son, your light makes it so that people desire to come close to you…”
“Was it you who brought me here?” Before the elder finished his words, Chen Heng once again spoke and asked.
“Indeed.” The elder did not hide anything and directly nodded, “I feel that compared to the Tiancheng Nation, this place suits the Holy Son more.
“Here, you can receive the best treatment. Even though you would be heavily protected in the Tiancheng Nation, you would not receive the treatment you deserve there.
“From the Tiancheng Nation’s lack of seriousness towards their faith, staying there is not good for you. However, things are different here.”
He gave a slight smile as he said, “We can assist you with anything—regardless if it is status, power, or other things—if you want it, we can help you obtain it. As long as you’re willing to stay here…”
However, hearing this, Chen Heng’s expression remained calm and continued to stare at the elder.
Feeling Chen Heng’s gaze, the elder did not feel awkward at all and only smiled as he said, “I know you don’t trust me yet, esteemed Holy Son, but that’s fine.
“If you are willing, you can stay here for a while and sense our sincerity before making a decision. If you are not satisfied, you can return to your homeland at any time.”
This was all that they could do, because Chen Heng was simply too powerful. From the power he had displayed, if he was not willing, even the entire Fer Principality could not stop him.
Once that happened, there would be no reconciling.
If such a thing happened after they went to such lengths to bring Chen Heng here, the Tiancheng Nation’s people would laugh their heads off.
As such, he could only express his sincerity from the start like this.
Chen Heng could try out this place, and if he was not satisfied, he could leave at any time.
The elder gave a sincere smile as he looked at Chen Heng.
Meeting the elder’s gaze, Chen Heng’s expression remained calm before nodding.
The elder immediately breathed out in relief.
“Since you are willing, that is wonderful,” he said, “Now that you are awake, the people who are responsible for serving you will arrive soon. When that time comes, you can ask them for anything; I won’t be disturbing your rest anymore.”
Following this, he turned and left this room.
Soon, the elder disappeared, and the room became quiet again.
Chen Heng did not feel much and just silently closed his eyes as he thought to himself.
Half a month later, within a beautiful church, Chen Heng wore priest robes as he stood ont he stage, giving a sermon.
Belong, the believers looked incredibly passionate and zealous.
They only calmed down after he left.
“What terrifying influencing power…” The elder sat among them and marvelled to himself.
Chen Heng’s voice seemed to have a strange ability to influence anyone, causing them to become his believers.
This was an incredibly unique and powerful charm.
However, thinking to what he had done in the past, such a thing was normal.
After all, only a Holy Son could rival an Origin Curse.
“During this half a month, he hasn’t done anything except for visit different churches?” The elder looked at the young man beside him as he asked.
“Yes.” Meeting the elder’s gaze, the young man nodded, “Apart from going to those churches, he has not done anything else. He has not accepted any of the upper classes’ invitations, and apart from going to the churches, he just stays at home. It’s as if he has no desires.”
“No desires…” Hearing this, the elder was quite surprised, “Are there really such people in this world…”
During this period of time, they had fulfilled their promise from before.
The day after Chen Heng had agreed to stay, they had contacted the Holy Mother Church and set Chen Heng up as the Holy Son.
This was a shocking gesture.
As such, during this time, there had been many people calling Chen Heng’s authenticity into question.
After all, the ordinary people did not know too much.
They did not know what had happened in the past, and just knew that Chen Heng was a stranger and a foreigner.
For him to suddenly become the Holy Mother Church’s Holy Son, this was a bit too inconceivable.
However, those questioning voices quickly disappeared.
In just half a month, Chen Heng had travelled about to different churches, establishing footing for himself as the Holy Son.
Even the elder himself could not believe that this was happening.
No matter where he went, he could easily gain followers for himself.
Whenever people saw him, they could not help but view him as the manifestation of god.
Such charisma was simply terrifying.
However, what made this feel quite surprised was how calm Chen Heng was about all of this.
Facing the fervent worship of countless people, as well as the status that the Holy Son afforded him, he did not seem to relish it at all, and just continued to visit different churches.
His life was very simple, and he did not have many demands.
His diet was also very simple—he just ate bread and water every day. Moreover, instead of requesting luxurious housing, he just stayed in an ordinary house.
Everything else seemed to be the same.
It was as if he had no desires, and really was a Holy Son.
But how was that possible?
Anyone who lived in the world would have things they wanted.
However, Chen Heng demonstrated a complete lack of desires.
“All we can say is as expected from the Holy Mother’s manifestation.” The elder thought to himself.
Chen Heng had brought great changes to this place.
Apart from the faith, wherever he went, the curse energy there would disappear, and would be banished by holy light.
No matter how powerful the curse energy was, it would be wiped away without a trace.
On the way, he had saved many people’s lives.
As expected from the Holy Son.
By now, Chen Heng had already left.
The elder thought for a moment before also getting up and leaving, and this was the case for the others around.
Elsewhere, Chen Heng had returned to his room.
“I’ve mostly recovered by now…” Chen Heng sensed the changes in his body as he thought to himself.
From how others saw it, he would have been quite busy and tired during this time.
In just half a month, he did not stop and travelled about every day, giving sermons at different churches.
His efficiency was incredibly high.
If it was an ordinary person, they would have already collapsed.
However, Chen Heng felt fine, and did not feel any pressure.
The reason for this was because of his special constitution.
After taking in law energy and his essence changing, he no longer had the body of an ordinary person.
In fact, he no longer felt tired or sleepy like ordinary people.
He seemed to be permanently fixed in his best condition.
His hard work over the past half a month had also brought him much gains.
The status of the Holy Son brought him great benefits.
With this status, him replacing the Holy Mother’s faith sped up greatly.
It was like sowing a seed, which would gradually grow and become stronger over time.
The reason why he had been working so hard over this half month was to set up a good foundation for this seed.
During this half a month, he had travelled through nearly half of the Fer Principality.
The amount of faith energy this brought him was also immense.
Rather than the Tiancheng Nation, the Holy Mother faith had come from other places.
In those places, the faith towards the Holy Mother was even more devout, and there were ore believers.
Even though their populations could not compare to the Tiancheng Nation, Chen Heng’s gains were still quite good.
In just half a month, Chen Heng had gained hundreds of thousands of faith threads.
“The Holy Son manifestation’s power is becoming stronger and stronger…” Within a silent room, Chen Heng closed his eyes and thought to himself.
His goal for the Holy Son manifestation was very simple, which was to have it become a receptacle for faith energy and provide him with faith energy to convert into divine energy.
Taking in faith could be quite dangerous—after all, faith energy had a corrosive element which could turn someone into the image that the believers had.
As such, Chen Heng did not choose to manifest as the Holy Mother, and instead created the Holy Son.
