Chapter 80 Salas (Part Two)

Salas also understood the implication in Miguel's words and was very puzzled. Although his strength was currently only level 89 (originally level 88, but he had been upgraded by one level after the previous baptism), he was still considered a strong person on the continent and an important figure even in the Spirit Hall. So why would Miguel refuse him?

Salas couldn't understand, so he asked, "Your Highness, why do you refuse my offer of allegiance?"

“Your heart is not sincere. Your level of faith in the Lord of Light is only that of a shallow believer. It is precisely because of this that I cannot accept your joining,” Miguel replied expressionlessly.

“I look quite devout!” Salas couldn’t help but remark.

“I can tell your faith level, so no matter how well you disguise it, you can’t fool me,” Miguel explained.

Upon hearing Miguel's explanation, Salas immediately understood that if he wanted to become a member of the Temple of Light, he needed to raise his faith level; otherwise, it would be impossible.

"Your Highness, what level of faith is required to join the Temple of Light?"

"At least you must be a deep believer. However, you should know that only by becoming a fanatical believer can your strength be further improved. But considering how well you've treated me these past few days, I'll give you a benefit. As long as you become a deep believer, I will help you become a Title Douluo. If you become a holy believer and I successfully pass the Light Ruler's test and become the new Light Ruler, then I will make you the steward of the God Kingdom and manage all the affairs of the God Kingdom."

Upon hearing Miguel's words, Salas was extremely excited, and his faith in the Lord of Light increased significantly, reaching the level of a deep believer.

"Let's leave together now," Miguel said calmly.

After speaking, Miguel took Daglas's hand and walked towards the interior of the temple. Salas, having heard Miguel's words, followed. Soon they arrived at a secret chamber, and led by Miguel, the three of them went inside.

"Your Highness, why did you bring me here?" Salas asked, puzzled.

Miguel tossed a Soul-Enhancing Pill from a jade bottle to Salas. Salas caught it and looked at Miguel with curiosity. Miguel took the opportunity to say, "This is a Soul-Enhancing Pill. It can unconditionally increase your soul power by one level below a Title Douluo. However, after taking it, you will no longer be able to break through your cultivation level on your own."

After Miguel finished speaking, Salas opened the jade bottle, ate the pill inside, and then sat down to absorb the medicinal properties of the pill. After about fifteen minutes, Salas's cultivation level reached level ninety.

After Salas stood up, he bowed to Miguel and said, "Thank you for your life-saving grace, Your Highness."

Salas was aware of his own talent. Reaching level 89 was already a stroke of luck, and reaching level 90 was a pipe dream. After all, countless Soul Douluos on the Douluo Continent were stuck at level 89. He was already very satisfied with reaching the Title Douluo level. Moreover, Salas was not young anymore. Now that he had reached the Title Douluo level, his lifespan had been extended. His white hair had turned black, and he looked much more energetic. This discovery made Salas even happier, because no one wants an old body.

Although Salas knew that his cultivation would not improve after taking the pill, he did not believe that Mig had no solution. After all, he had previously helped those without talent become Soul Masters. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have thought it was a fantasy, since there was no such thing in the records of the continent.

“Alright, Salas, if you want to break through further, you need to have even more devout faith in the Lord of Light. As long as you become a fanatical believer, you can at least cultivate to level 95. If you can become a holy believer, then your minimum achievement will be level 100,” Miguel said, making empty promises.
