ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The process of bestowing blessings wasn't too complicated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He infused his unique psychic energy into a chosen vessel, where the energy would act upon the vessel, enhancing its natural characteristics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In simple terms, it functioned like a catalyst.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would assist and strengthen the vessel's own abilities, making it much more powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, this energy carried with it certain traits or concepts from Eden himself, which could influence the vessel's physical form and mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It caused the vessel to instinctively worship Eden as its master, leading to total submission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take Bishop Doni, for example.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After receiving the blessing, his physical recovery was just a side effect, and most of the changes were in his inherent traits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bishop Doni used to be known for his strength—no one took his teachings seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, he radiated holiness, emanating a unique energy field, with even a faint glow of divine light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This naturally inspired reverence in those around him, making them more willing to listen to his sermons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His preaching abilities were greatly enhanced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite his rather radical beliefs, anyone who encountered Bishop Doni would think of him as the most devout disciple of the God-Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, he was now practically a living saint of the Ecclesiarchy!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even at the headquarters of the Ecclesiarchy on Holy Terra, he would be considered a prominent figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he didn't dare go there, fearing that the High Ecclesiarch would purge him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Eden dared to accept Bishop Doni and allow him to continue preaching in the domain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the influence of the blessing, Bishop Doni's reverence for Eden, the chosen savior of the God-Emperor, grew stronger, almost reaching blind obedience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The effects of the blessing were undoubtedly powerful, but it wasn't something that could be bestowed on just anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blessings only catalyzed the vessel's existing traits, providing auxiliary enhancement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the vessel was lacking, the blessing's energy would be wasted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was similar to upgrading weapons in a game—if the upgrade failed or caused damage, it would be a total loss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, choosing the right vessel for the blessing was crucial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, Eden hadn't decided who else should receive a blessing, so he kept it as a last resort, ready for use when needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the Ecclesiarchy Cathedral, Bishop Doni looked around at the somewhat empty space, his old face creased with worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was troubled by the state of the Ecclesiarchy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lately, while some people had come to the cathedral for blessings, the number was still far too few.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was nothing compared to its former glory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the heretic rebellion's assault, most of the Ecclesiarchy members in the Upper Hive had been wiped out, and many local churches were destroyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ecclesiarchy on Urth was on the brink of collapse, and the King's Court wasn't much better off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In such a dire situation, preaching had been set aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that the Upper Hive had been reclaimed, it was the perfect time to revive the Ecclesiarchy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rebuilding local churches and erecting statues would require a significant amount of manpower and resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At present, the Ecclesiarchy couldn't bear such large-scale projects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should he seek help from the Governor?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they had already spent so many resources just repairing the statues of the God-Emperor in the King's Court.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would the Governor even agree to another request?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bishop Doni frowned, torn by indecision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, a seraph at the cathedral entrance delivered a message.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Governor was here!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bishop Doni's old face lit up with joy, and he grabbed his staff, rushing toward the cathedral door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Governor never came without a reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His arrival could only mean good news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a gust of wind, Bishop Doni raced to the door, but then stopped abruptly, regaining his holy composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing tall, he waited for the slowly approaching Eden:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the grace of the God-Emperor, please, follow me...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden looked at the sanctified Bishop Doni and couldn't help but marvel at the power of the blessing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was truly incredible—if he went to the headquarters of the Ecclesiarchy, wouldn't he easily rise to the rank of High Ecclesiarch?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden couldn't help but miss the old Bishop Doni, who used to be so enthusiastic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now he was far more aloof—could the blessing have even altered his personality?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As usual, Eden followed Bishop Doni to the shrine for prayer, blessings, and the ritual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several seraphs sang hymns in the air, showering Eden with petals and holy water until he was practically buried in them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah, that familiar feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Bishop Doni, who resembled a living saint, Eden vaguely felt that the old man hadn't truly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the blessings neared completion, Eden suddenly sensed a faint power emerging from the shrine and entering his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although this power had little effect on Eden, it would greatly benefit ordinary people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Goodness, could the old man actually bestow blessings now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This ability could greatly amplify his sermons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the ceremony over, Eden got straight to the point:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm here to discuss the revival of the Ecclesiarchy on Urth, Bishop.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Praise the God-Emperor,\" Bishop Doni exclaimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your actions are a great service to the Ecclesiarchy. The God-Emperor will bless you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's only natural. As the chosen savior of the God-Emperor, I have a responsibility to revive the Ecclesiarchy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reviving the Ecclesiarchy was one of Eden's major plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Imperial government could not function without the God-Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, the faith in the God-Emperor spread by the Ecclesiarchy would greatly calm the hearts of the people and maintain order within the domain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For ten thousand years, the faith in the God-Emperor had spread throughout the galaxy. Such a vast and deeply rooted force must be fully utilized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unbeknownst to Bishop Doni, the faith energy created by his tireless preaching was almost entirely siphoned off by Eden's small sun, becoming nourishment for himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Eden, what belonged to the God-Emperor was his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as the God-Emperor didn't punish him, he would keep absorbing the faith energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under these circumstances, the revival of the Ecclesiarchy had to happen quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden informed Bishop Doni that the King's Court would send personnel to assist with the reconstruction of local churches and the erection of more statues of the God-Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They would also help the Ecclesiarchy recruit new members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ministry of Internal Affairs would implement new policies, giving workers two days off per month as prayer days, during which they could visit the church to pray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was two days off a month too little?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's a joke—right now, the Upper Hive was in shambles, with millions of citizens in dire need of resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Eden, the Governor, worked late into the night, his back aching from exhaustion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two days was already generous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any more than that, and even the hardest-working laborers wouldn't dare take so much time off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden could only ensure the workers had enough food and reasonable working hours. Even if the work was tough, they wouldn't starve or work to death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having food to eat, rest days, and the opportunity to seek the God-Emperor's blessings at church—that was already a paradise-like life for the workers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the discussion, Bishop Doni was deeply grateful, personally escorting Eden to the cathedral door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he watched Eden's departing figure, tears welled up in his eyes, lingering in admiration:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As expected, he truly is the most devout servant of the God-Emperor!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>==== [Check Out My Patreon For +20 Extra Chapters On All My Fanfics!!
