248: True omnipotence, recommended for foundation level
Authority is a special power that a God of Faith needs to condense when breaking through to the Foundation Level, similar to the power a God of Rule needs to use Dao Source Power to open the door to the Foundation Level.
However, the power of Authority is very ethereal; it seems that all Gods of Faith possess it, wielding the power indicated by their Authority within a certain area.
In reality, this power fundamentally does not belong to the God of Faith; it is merely a permission to control the world obtained by connecting with the world through the power of faith. Once separated from the world, the power will be lost.
For a God of Faith to break through, they need to condense True Authority to reach the Foundation Level. This True Authority is equivalent to carving out a piece of power from the world that the God of Faith can control.
Therefore, in This Universe, it is very difficult for a God of Faith to break through to the Foundation Level unless they are extraordinarily talented and can gain the appreciation of the universe's consciousness. Otherwise, they cannot seize power from the universe's mouth and condense True Authority.
The incomplete Omnipotent Authority in Lin Chen's hand is True Authority, an independent power that does not belong to the universe, nor to its former owner, "God."
Once Faith Lin Chen merges with the incomplete Omnipotent Authority, it means he has opened the path to the Foundation Level. He only needs to develop his faith sect, and he will naturally achieve the Foundation Level.
The universe is naturally willing to see a God of Faith who can break through to the Foundation Level without plundering the universe's own power, and will provide assistance to establish a causal relationship.
After all, if the universe doesn't expend power, it can nurture one more Foundation Level being, and some characteristics of this Foundation Level being's True Authority will also be acquired by the universe, which counts as strengthening the universe's power.
Because of this, the universe will inevitably provide assistance. Otherwise, once a Foundation Level God of Faith grows stronger, the universe will not be qualified to ask them to do anything for the universe, let alone share the power of True Authority to help the universe grow stronger.
And Faith Lin Chen, who has obtained the incomplete Omnipotent Authority, will no longer be limited to This Universe in his development. He can completely create a new world in the void, relying on the Omnipotent Authority, a world that is equal in status to This Universe.
This is the function of True Authority.
Every True Authority is a source of power equal to This Universe. Whether as an individual or as the origin of creating a world, its status is equal to This Universe.
If the True Authority holder chooses to develop by relying on This Universe, then they will be constrained by This Universe, just like a Foundation Level God of Rule. They will need to repay This Universe's investment when they transcend in the future.
If they cannot transcend, they will also be bound to This Universe, needing to assist in This Universe's development, becoming one with This Universe.
For now, Lin Chen has no intention of leaving This Universe.
Therefore, after he achieves the Foundation Level, both his main body and his avatars will be on the same front as This Universe. While improving his own strength, he will also drive the universe's growth.
Three days later, Faith Lin Chen arrived.
"A guaranteed opportunity to reach the Foundation Level, I'm going to be ahead this time."
Faith Lin Chen's original form was the weakest among all of Lin Chen's avatars, merely an avatar formed by the fusion of some of Lin Chen's soul and a mixed power of faith.
Although the current Faith Lin Chen has become a god and taken over everything of the God of the Mortal World, his essence remains unchanged. He is constrained by the main body, and his development potential is also weaker than the main body and other avatars.
The upper limit for a God of Faith is the Main God.
In This Universe, there are only two Foundation Level Gods of Faith, and neither of them condensed True Authority by plundering This Universe's power. They both obtained True Authority and broke through to the Foundation Level only after acquiring other equivalent universes or worlds through serendipitous opportunities.
The current Faith Lin Chen will be the third Foundation Level God of Faith in This Universe's future. He will also be able to break through to the Foundation Level without relying on This Universe's power, merely needing to utilize This Universe's environment during the breakthrough process.
At this moment, An Pingshan already knew what opportunity Lin Chen had obtained: a True Authority, an opportunity for a God of Faith to be guaranteed to the Foundation Level.
"Little old man, it's truly you. The main body and five avatars, each has the potential for the Foundation Level. Breaking through to the Foundation Level is not a difficult matter."
"It's all luck, the result of human luck's favor,"
Lin Chen said modestly.
An Pingshan, that old man, was very excited at this moment.
Lin Chen breaking through to the Foundation Level alone was nothing, but the key was that his five avatars all had the chance to break through to the Foundation Level, especially Faith Lin Chen, who was already confirmed to be guaranteed to the Foundation Level.
At this stage, among the Federation's Foundation Level beings, only the main body is at the Foundation Level. The previous avatar incarnations are still at the Main God level, without the opportunity to break through and possess a second Foundation Level combat power.
Lin Chen also didn't have this worry. His avatars were all very capable. There was no difficulty for the main body to break through to the Foundation Level, and his avatars also had no difficulty breaking through; it was merely a matter of when they would break through.
Faith Lin Chen took the cross, only able to store it within his divine individuality. He did not choose to merge directly, but rather slowly absorbed the Omnipotent Authority power from the cross, condensing his own Omnipotent Authority.
After all, this was the Omnipotent Authority of "God." Using it directly would ultimately be somewhat incompatible. Only after a transformation could it become the Omnipotent Authority truly suitable for him.
This was the most stable choice. Systematically transforming the Omnipotent Authority would lead to a higher future achievement than directly merging with it.
Walking someone else's path is always somewhat incompatible.
The moment Faith Lin Chen condenses his own Omnipotent Authority through the incomplete Omnipotent Authority in the cross will be when he breaks through to the Foundation Level, estimated to take four thousand years.
During this process, the expansion of the Dust World Sect and the elevation of his own rank will also shorten the time required for condensation.
It might even be that he becomes the first among Lin Chen's main body and his avatars to break through to the Foundation Level.
Faith Lin Chen has already bound the incomplete Omnipotent Authority. After that, he just needs to develop step by step, and it won't be long before he achieves the Foundation Level.
The path has been opened; steadily moving forward will eventually yield results.
Next, Faith Lin Chen returned to the Dust World to continue presiding over the Dust World Sect's expeditionary war in the Land of Contention for Godhood, slowly but steadily devouring the Land of Contention for Godhood, turning the entire Land of Contention for Godhood into his diocese.
Lin Chen's true spirit, meanwhile, returned to his body in the Ancestral Court Great World to continue his seclusion, continuing to comprehend the Karma Dao, striving to advance his comprehension progress to 100%.
At that time, he will be able to both condense his own Dao Source Power and return to the Lin Chen Dao Domain to seclude himself and enhance his divine body and divine power. With the Myriad Transformation Soul Spirit's blessing, his divine soul will eventually reach Foundation Level strength, so there's no need to worry.
Therefore, he only needs to diligently improve his divine body and divine power, and he will eventually be able to break through to the Main God rank.
After breaking through to the Main God, Lin Chen's main body can also plan for a breakthrough to the Foundation Level; he too is considered to be guaranteed to the Foundation Level.
With the Myriad Transformation Soul Spirit enhancing his divine soul, the heavenly calculation compass opening up the upper limit of Karma Dao mastery, the Five Regions Great World serving as the place of enlightenment, and the Great Accomplishment Late Bloomer talent silently exerting its power, with all these advantages stacked, his breakthrough to the Foundation Level is a certainty.
Mirror Lin Chen is about to fully comprehend the Mirror Dao, which will allow him to contact Dao Source Power one step ahead, laying the foundation for his main body to condense Dao Source Power.
Dao Source Power, one of the supreme powers of the universe.
Mastering it is said to be very difficult, but also very simple.
After a Dao is comprehended to its extreme at the God rank, taking another step forward on this basis and forging a new path can give rise to wisps of Dao Source Power.
The process of continuously expanding the Dao is the process of accumulating Dao Source Power.
Currently, Mirror Lin Chen has no clue, but perhaps the next time his talent takes effect, he will have a clue about Dao Source Power, allowing him to take another step beyond the Mirror Dao, opening up the upper limit of the Mirror Dao.
The upper limit of the Mirror Dao is the Main God level. Once Mirror Lin Chen fully comprehends it, continuing to open up the Dao is a necessary step. Only by forging a path through thorns and thistles can he take another step forward in cultivation.
Cultivating the Main God Dao makes breaking through to the Foundation Level very difficult, but after breaking through, one becomes the Lord of a Dao.
This is also an advantage. Cultivating a Transcendent-level Dao and breaking through to the Foundation Level still requires further ascent until one surpasses the pioneering progress of predecessors to become the Lord of a Dao.
A Lord of a Dao, when compared to a cultivator of a Transcendent Dao, always holds a higher status. At the same level, they also master more Dao Source Power and possess greater combat strength.
