Chapter 1852 Planning to Seize the Existing Faiths
?After pondering for a while, an evil smile was plastered on Eren"s face as he thought to himself.
"I have devoured people for my growth. What"s wrong with devouring the G.o.d Sparks of the demi-G.o.ds?
From the looks of it, True G.o.d Sparks are hard to find. They are once-in-a-million opportunities that could only be obtained by someone really lucky.
I think I had exhausted all my luck related to the acquisition of the G.o.d Sparks when I obtained a True G.o.d Spark from Anfang"s World Will.
Instead of holding my breath to find a True G.o.d Spark, it is much better to steal others" foundations and make them my own.
The Pract.i.tioners who have been turned into demi-G.o.ds using the True G.o.d Sparks and Faithless G.o.d Sparks are rare.
Thankfully, there are still many demiG.o.ds related to a particular faith, promoted to their current status after the use of the faith-based G.o.d Sparks. If the faith-based G.o.d Sparks lack quality and comprehensive Elemental Attainment related to a particular element, I can always target multiple demiG.o.ds and make up for the lack of quality with quant.i.ty.
It"s just that most of the faith-based demi-G.o.ds have obtained that status after they ended their traditional Path. It means that most of them would have the prowess of the S-Plus Rank. Thanks to that status, they would also be able to make effective use of the faith-based G.o.d Spark.
In short, it won"t be easy to target them," Eren sighed as he said to himself.
"I guess I need to do some research," Eren finally got up from his position as he continued to let his mind wander off on its own.
"I need to go out. Or rather, let my pseudo-avatars explore more.
I have stayed cooped up in Labh Salem for a while now. I didn"t even try to explore the world thinking that I might attract unwanted attention. I didn"t even try to meet with the so-called demi-G.o.ds who are very famous among the mortals of Labh Salem.
I don"t need to kill each of them and devour them for my growth. However, I can learn a lot from them, and see how they progress ahead as demiG.o.ds.
And if an Immortal is particularly hostile towards me, I can choose to hit them where it would hurt the most," Eren chuckled to himself as he exited the underground facility.
Eren was sure that in the contest of owners.h.i.+p related to a particular elemental G.o.d Spark, he would win and obtain the right to a.s.similate with that Elemental G.o.d Spark just fine. No matter what kind of elemental G.o.d Spark it was.
After all, according to the G.o.ddess Great Mother"s explanation, all the elemental divinities once belonged to a singular Elder G.o.d– Aleph. It was only after G.o.d Aleph"s fall that the elemental divinities were divided and claimed by the existing Immortals who successfully became Elemental Immortals as a result of a.s.similating with those G.o.d Sparks.
As such, Eren believed that his claim over the elemental G.o.d Sparks would be prioritized by the existing G.o.d Sparks themselves. He believed that even though there were three variants of the G.o.d Sparks, they basically did the same thing, which was to give their wielder the ability to wield divinity related to a particular element.
As long as the result remained the same for all forms of G.o.d Sparks, Eren had confidence in using Elder Ichor"s elemental dominion to his advantage.
If Eren managed to refine his divinity related to the elemental powers of the boundless cosmos as well, his abominated divinity would then be truly stimulated, bringing him many benefits.
At the same time, his rise in his traditional Path as well as the faith-based path will become unstoppable and unimaginable.
The demonic way of becoming an Immortal was different from the divine faction. It didn"t need G.o.d Sparks. Not really.
One just needed to a.s.similate with a lot of demonic energy and keep on acc.u.mulating it before a G.o.d Spark was formed within them on its own. It was more like becoming a Faithless Celestial with a few key differences.
This was the reason Eren didn"t need to claim the demonic G.o.d Sparks related to the Seven Sins to harness the power of his demonic bloodline heritage. When he obtained the True G.o.d Spark, he immediately became qualified to wield the demonic aspect of his divinity.
"Earlier I worried about how to keep my enemy count to its lowest. Now I"m afraid I might not have many enemies," Eren thought and chuckled as he walked towards a particular section of the underground facility.
This section was dedicated to his pseudo-avatar creation. As soon as he entered the isolated domain, Eren saw that Naya was waiting for him inside.
"Good to see you, Naya," Eren locked Naya in a warm embrace before asking. "How was your journey?"
Naya smiled and hugged him back before responding. "It was relatively less troubling than I thought. I managed to meet Altair Argas just fine. The handover of the demonic prisoners also went smoothly.
It was only the transportation of these prisoners that caused a bit of a headache," Naya started reporting the details of the mission she had just completed.
A few weeks ago, Eren had sent Naya to bring him a batch of demonic ent.i.ties in Altair Argas" possession. The humanoid demon beast had not only transported the demonic ent.i.ties to Siren"s Sanctuary but also dealt with the problems she faced on the way on her own.
"Pirates of Labh Salem, huh," Eren mumbled as he listened to Naya"s report. "It seems they are supported by a certain sea G.o.d. Isn"t the divinity of a sea G.o.d closely related to my G.o.d Spark? Can I be called a small water G.o.d if that is the case? And what would happen if I manage to defeat this sea G.o.d and claim his divinity?"
Naya was surprised when she heard Eren"s ramblings. She couldn"t believe that Eren was already planning to mess with the divine ent.i.ties when he was not even a Sage. She pondered for a bit before asking him. "Eren, are you thinking of creating your faith in the seas?"
"No," Eren smiled as he spoke. "Why create another faith if there"s one already in existence? I just need to kill this sea G.o.d before claiming his faith in me," Eren said casually.
