Chapter 196 The Legendary Realm Is Condensed for the First Time!
The world in front of him gradually became clearer. Ryan opened his eyes, and the dim sideboard was reflected in his pupils.
He blinked, and his slightly empty eyes gradually regained their spirit.
"I died again..."
He whispered to himself.
The strength of Saint Iochilis was more terrible than he expected.
As a hero who had dedicated himself, the current "Lord of Fire", Saint Iochilis's strength was conservatively estimated to be at the demigod level, and it was definitely not the kind of beginner.
If not, even if Ryan was defeated, he would not be killed instantly.
The speed of the purple-black light arrow was too fast, so fast that he had no time to react.
Or, that was no longer pure speed, but a power that was more mysterious than the legendary realm and unique to demigods?
The gap between each small level between the demigod levels seemed to be more exaggerated than when it was legendary...
"Huh..."
Ryan exhaled lightly, no longer thinking about it, and cast his eyes on his panel.
He is indeed no match for Saint Iochilis at the moment, but that doesn't mean he won't be able to beat him in the future.
When he travels next time, he will complete the 20th level promotion and become stronger. Even if he is still no match for Saint Iochilis, he will not be killed instantly like he is now.
——
[Spirit]: 80.4→110.4 (over 100 points, [Tide of Pain] is invalid)
[Physique]: 126.06→156.06 (over 100 points, [Tide of Pain] is invalid)
——
The biggest gain of Ryan in this journey is that he pushed the occupational compatibility of [Greedy Monarch] to 100% in one fell swoop.
Not only did his [Spirit] and [Physique] get explosive improvements, but the level of [Dragon Wings] was also raised to the same "Grandmaster Level" as [Dragon Helmet] and [Dragon Power].
For the Wandering Avatar, this attribute improvement is good, but it cannot cause a leap-forward increase in combat power. However, for the original body with low attribute values, the situation is quite different.
The 30-point increase in [Physique] is even higher than the feedback improvement brought by the current Wandering Avatar's level increase, and the 30-point increase in [Spirit] is even more terrifying.
100 points of spirituality is the limit of a fourth-level professional, and more than 100 points means that Ryan's spirituality has entered the level of "weak legend" without any bonus.
Generally speaking, the rise of rank will experience "promotion baptism", which will greatly increase spirituality. Professionals who can be promoted from the fourth-level limit to the fifth-level legend have spirituality of more than 200 points.
The reason why the realm of "weak legend" appears is mainly because the legendary professional has a decline in spirituality due to some external reasons, but the status remains at the fifth level, so there is the term "weak legend".
The legendary rank is not inferior to the fourth-rank extraordinary. Professionals who have reached this level have greatly improved their lifespan. If they can live for 500 years without illness or disaster, they are already considered half immortal.
Above the legendary rank is the illusory demigod realm. In order to break through this gap between humans and gods, most legends will choose to venture deeper into the sea. It is normal for them to get injured and lose strength.
Compared with the normal "first entry into the legend", the "weak legend" is naturally much "weaker", but it is still a legend after all, and has the qualification to peek into the "domain".
For example, now...
As [Spirituality] officially crosses the 100 mark, the world in Ryan's perception has undergone subtle changes.
He can feel that the ubiquitous spirituality in the surrounding environment has various attributes. Among them, there are two attributes of spiritual particles that are most friendly to him and actively approach him.
The first one emits a green light, bright and transparent, which is the wind attribute spirituality.
Storm Swordsmanship is a powerful swordsmanship based on wind attributes. Ryan began to practice Storm Swordsmanship from the first level and practiced it to the master level.
Being able to perform special sword skills of Storm Swordsmanship shows that Ryan's physique is compatible with the wind attribute. In the long-term practice of Storm Swordsmanship, this compatibility has been gradually deepened.
The second is a particle that emits a strong blood light.
Its name is blood attribute spirituality.
Blood attribute spirituality is actually very rare. None of the twelve paths can directly control the professional skills of blood attribute spirituality. If you want to contact blood attribute spirituality, either you have strong killing power and control blood with killing intent, and then get the recognition of blood attribute spirituality, or you practice the secret method of blood attribute spirituality.
The former, if you want to get the recognition of blood attribute spirituality with killing intent, it is not a simple large-scale killing that can be achieved, but also requires extremely high quality. As for the latter, the number of secret methods of blood attribute spirits is extremely rare, and most of them have extremely high requirements. Usually, you have to reach the threshold of cultivation after the fourth level, otherwise you will be hurt by the blood attribute spirits. Most of the professionals who can reach the fourth level also find and begin to further study the attribute spirits that suit them when they are at the third level.
For various reasons, there are very few professionals who are recognized by the blood attribute spirits.
Ryan's situation belongs to the first type.
In the original world and the monster hunter world, he has experienced too many life-and-death battles along the way, and the quality and quantity have met the requirements for being recognized by the blood attribute spirits.
What is shown is that at this moment, when Ryan's spirituality reaches the minimum requirement of the condensation field, the blood attribute spirit is willing to be mobilized by him.
Wind attribute...blood attribute...
Generally speaking, the domain of legendary professionals is a single attribute domain, because they can only condense the domain with the attribute spirituality that they are familiar with.
Now that Ryan has this condition, he naturally chooses to take it all.
Under the mobilization of his thoughts, a large number of wind attribute and blood attribute spiritual particles began to gather within a radius of 100 meters.
Among them, wind attribute particles accounted for 80%, while blood attribute particles accounted for only 20%.
This is because the special environment on the sea causes the spiritual particles contained in the environment to be dominated by water and wind attributes, and the spiritual particles of other attributes only account for a relatively small part.
This is also the fundamental reason why the Tao profession that can use water and wind attributes spirituality is the most popular on the sea after the third level.
The impact of the environment on the battle is quite large.
Because [Spirituality] has just broken through 100 points, the spiritual range that Ryan can affect is only 110 meters in radius, which is basically the same as the [Spirituality] strength.
Normal legendary professionals can influence a much larger area than this, and do not follow the 1:1 ratio with [spirituality].
Perhaps after a certain point, the conversion ratio will increase?
With all kinds of thoughts flowing through his mind, Ryan closed his eyes and gradually emptied his mind.
Under the influence of his full concentration, a layer of special power covering a radius of 100 meters slowly took shape.
It seemed to be virtual and unreal, and was about to appear, but it was missing something, which prevented it from being completely condensed.
With a sudden inspiration, Ryan's mind exploded with inspiration.
A semi-illusory sword emerged from behind him and inserted into the ground. In an instant, blood and green light seemed to have found the backbone and flowed rapidly around the sword.
The legendary domain is condensed!
Ryan slowly opened his eyes. At this moment, if someone looked at him, those with strength lower than the fourth level would be pierced by the sharpness and shed tears of blood.
Ryan raised his hand and opened his palm little by little. After a few seconds, he sighed and dispersed the surrounding domain.
Looking at the cabin room that had calmed down again, Ryan's eyes were full of contemplation.
Although the legendary domain was initially condensed, because of the lack of something crucial, his domain could only be regarded as an "abridged version".
What was shown in the panel was...
——
[Special Skill·Domain (Initial Condensation)]: A legendary domain initially condensed with the foundation of Grandmaster Swordsmanship and the powerful wind attribute spirituality and blood attribute spirituality, the maximum range of the expansion can reach 110 meters (equivalent to [spirituality]). Enemies within the domain with [spirituality] below 110 points will be strongly suppressed and weakened in all directions, and the specific degree depends on the difference in [spirituality] between the two sides.
At the same time, the domain expander himself will also be blessed by the domain, and [spirituality] and [physique] will increase by 11% (related to [spirituality]).
The larger the domain range, the lower the strength, and the weaker the increase to himself. When the domain range is 0, it cannot affect others, but the self will receive a huge increase (up to 22%, related to [spirituality]).
ps: The initially condensed domain cannot be completely completed due to the lack of "governing objects". It only has the basic functions of the domain and cannot reflect the "unique" nature of the domain developer.
——
There is no doubt that the legendary domain is very strong, very strong. Professionals below the legendary level will completely become lambs to be slaughtered when facing the domain. The increase and decrease will further widen the gap in strength between the two sides.
In the same-level confrontation, the use of the domain is mainly used to enhance oneself.
After mastering the legendary domain, Ryan will no longer encounter the situation where the opponent's domain suppresses his spirituality to the point that he cannot mobilize it when fighting with legendary professionals.
This is very important. After all, there is no Noel to resist the legendary domain for him now.
Condensing the domain is certainly a happy thing, but it is a bit uncomfortable to just have an "abridged version" of the domain.
Regarding the "Things of Domination", Ryan guessed that it should be something that can only be obtained after being promoted to the fifth-level legend. At present, his fastest progress in the "Original Sin Path" has only progressed to 100% of the third level. He is planning the promotion ceremony of the fourth level. It will probably take a long time to be promoted to the fifth-level legend.
Speaking of the level, Ryan remembered the requirements of the inauguration ceremony of the fourth-level profession [King of Sloth] of the "Original Sin Path".
——Sloth Ritual: Drive others to complete a "big event" for yourself that everyone will pay attention to.
The soft moonlight flowed into the room along the boat on the bulwark and also reflected on Ryan's palm.
The dust flying in the air, vaguely, seemed to be a dancing figure.
Ryan's eyes showed a contemplative look.
Compared with the "Greed Ritual", the "Sloth Ritual" is much easier to understand in terms of the literal meaning.
The requirements are also very clear.
Drive others to complete the "big event", at least 10,000 people will witness it.
But clear requirements do not mean that it is easy to complete.
First of all, "10,000 witnesses" means that the "Sloth Ritual" can only be completed in a place at least at the town level.
In the past, Ryan had to reach a large island.
But now, because the new travel point is different from the Monster Hunter World, it is possible for him to complete the "Sloth Ritual" while traveling in the world.
Of course, this is just a possibility.
According to the description of [The Book of Canggu and Freedom], the population of the "Undead Settlement" is only more than 3,000. The more than 3,000 here should refer to normal people who have not been infected with the "Gray Erosion Disease". If the "people" among the 10,000 people required by the "Sloth Ritual" need pure people, then the "Undead Settlement" may not be able to meet the minimum requirements of the ritual.
Unless those who are infected with the "Gray Erosion Disease" but have not yet transformed into "Gray Corpses" are also considered "people", then there is still a possibility of completion.
The specifics will be known after he practices.
Compared with the main body world, the new travel world is more likely to achieve the "Sloth Ritual".
After all, in the past five days, he has been busy looking for the Witch Island in the "Magnetic Thunder Sea". He has no time to find a large island, and no time to go to the island to worry about the ritual.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Ryan closed his eyes, meditating while adapting to the sudden increase in physical fitness, and by the way, mastering the newly mastered "Initial Condensation Field".
When the rising sun came closer from the window, he opened his eyes, got up and pushed the door open.
The sea outside the magnetic thunder sea area, although there are occasional small waves, is generally very stable. Who would have thought that only ten nautical miles away, there is a completely different, almost "apocalyptic" scene ahead?
Standing on the deck, taking a deep breath of the fresh sea breeze, Ryan looked in the direction of the captain's room with some doubts.
According to past habits, Cecilia should have gotten up and started practicing rapier skills at this time. Why hasn't she gotten up yet?
Is it because of Furenee's coma?
Or is it because Miss Wolf has been too busy recently?
After thinking about it, Ryan came to the captain's room.
At this distance, his perception has spread to the captain's room.
Feeling an extremely special, somewhat familiar but seemingly false energy fluctuation inside, Ryan's eyes condensed and he pushed the door in without hesitation.
The scene he saw made his eyes freeze.
Freni still lay quietly on the bed, her beautiful eyebrows slightly frowned, as if she had dreamed of something bad. Although her spiritual fluctuations were weak, they were generally stable.
Cecilia, on the other hand, was in a very special situation.
Countless filaments condensed from the moonlight wrapped her layer by layer, forming something similar to a cocoon, and the moonlight filaments extending from the cocoon spread to all the spaces in the room except the bed where Freni slept.
The reason for this blank space is probably that even if she fell asleep, Cecilia still had the determination to protect Freni in her subconscious mind.
After observing for a while, Ryan's frown gradually relaxed.
Although he didn't know what happened, he could sense that Cecilia, who was in the "Moon Cocoon", was gradually increasing her spiritual fluctuations.
Perhaps it was related to Cecilia's bloodline of the Moon Wolf King?
Ryan guessed in his heart.
Since Cecilia and Freni were fine, Ryan was relieved.
He controlled the core of the [Black Rose] and turned on the highest power shield around the captain's room at all times, then turned and left.
Next, he would start the second exploration of the magnetic mine sea area, and try to find the location of the Witch Island as soon as possible.
