Chapter 482: Chapter 320: Daily Life Before the Storm (4K)_2

With one gulp, it devoured the resources of a few dozen Soul Crystals.

Reaching the Legendary Realm doesn’t simply require absorbing Soul Sand to grow stronger, but nevertheless, the omnipotent Soul Sand and Soul Crystals are indispensable for rapid cultivation progress.

The Krypton Crystal capacity of the Legendary Realm far surpasses that of the fourth-order Leaders.

After all, it’s legendary!

As vast energies, elemental particles, and special materials were digested, Duo Lai’s Realm of Infinite Serpents expanded at a visibly rapid rate.

This is the cultivation of the Legendary Realm.

It might appear to be just absorption, but in reality, it contains profound mysteries.

Any slight mishap would affect not just the speed of cultivation but could also disrupt the stability of a Legendary Realm’s domain. Over many years, various legends have therefore accumulated a wealth of cultivation experience and insights, and established numerous cultivation Mystery Skills.

Duo Lai had obtained an Inheritance Skill.

The optimal method of cultivation is often self-created by top legends, fitting them perfectly and being incredibly stable, while also deemed top-tier.

The Inheritance Skill of Duo Lai was also a top-tier method, ranking his efficiency of practicing this technique in the second tier, far surpassing the cultivation of other legends’ Mystery Skills.

Extremely stable;

The utilization rate for environmental energy and materials is higher, reaching 70%~80%;

Additionally, the upper limit of energy and materials it could devour and absorb was also much higher!

Combining these factors, along with possessing an extraordinary talent, its rate of cultivation could only be described as Duo Lai riding a rocket straight to the heavens.

The domain kept steadily growing stronger.

In its miniature form.

Over just a few days, Duo Lai’s domain limit expanded from 1333 meters to 1666 meters, which was also related to it having just ascended to legendary status and being in a phase of rapid advancement.

As the domain grew, so did Duo Lai’s physique, spirit, and energy.

And it wasn’t just these three basic dimensions.

Willpower, soul power, life power, these previously unseen and unfelt, almost unutilized and unenhanced hidden attributes would also experience a slight increase along with the domain’s expansion.

The extent of the improvement is related to individual talent and the quality of the cultivation method.

…

In Tianyuan Territory, exploration went on, battles were prepared for, and cultivation continued.

Meanwhile, the Elf’s Courtyard held its bi-monthly trading assembly as scheduled.

This time, the host was not Lord Linglong, who was likely in the midst of breaking through to the Legendary Realm. Another powerful Lord was in charge of the trading assembly.

Mu Yuan was naturally in attendance, sitting aside and casually chatting and sipping tea with Jiang and several others.

Whenever he had spare time, he would sit in the Secret Realm, order some drinks, or even generously treat guests on a whim—but of course, not without a motive. He needed to gather information about the outside world through these Lords.

This was now the only channel for him to receive news from the Tai Xuan Alliance.

The Lords had access to various sources of information and were pleasant to talk to, which he greatly enjoyed.

“It’s said that Lord Linglong has a great chance of breaking through this time. It seems it won’t be long before Tai Xuan has another Legendary Lord.”

“Wang Longteng, the eldest son of Lord Beiting, had recruited an Epic General not long ago. After absorbing several upgrade fragments, Wang Longteng’s Epic General has stepped into the fourth-order and even managed to develop a domain… This General is now truly on the cusp of legend.”

“This time, Wang Longteng is riding the momentum of the convergence of the two worlds to soar to great heights.”

“In Longchuan City a few days ago, another Lord broke through to the Legendary Realm, known as the Fish Dragon Hero.”

Within the Tai Xuan Alliance, there are many Lords and military generals stuck at the fourth-order peak, and naturally, every once in a while, someone breaks through to Legendary status.

These breakthroughs are mostly by local Lords, or their top generals, with a few being Ranger Players. They rent breakthrough venues from Official cities to achieve their breakthroughs.

Of course, for top Lords like the Lord of Luo Fu Mountain and Lord Beiting, with complete cultivation and promotion facilities within their territories and extensive experience in Legendary Realm breakthroughs, their strong underlings often try to break through quietly, whether they fail or succeed, without the outside world knowing.

No one has any idea how much power a top Lord has accumulated.

Of course, with the birth of Legendary realms, there are also legends that fall.

The Tai Xuan Alliance lost a Legendary in the deep wilderness, and every so often, people would hear such news. There were even more occurrences of Legendary demises unknown to the outside world.

“The Legendary Realm…”

Lords aspired endlessly for it, yet they fell silent without fail.

They were among the outstanding of the Lords, confident they could strike at the Four-order and ascend to the peak of Leader Level. But no one dared to assert they were sure to advance to Legendary.

Reason told them that their chances of stepping into the Legendary were rather slim, unless they could attain a great opportunity.

Rumors spoke of a fishing enthusiast senior, arising early alongside Tai Xuan’s first wave of powerhouses, and had long become a Great Lord. However, even after sixty years, the fishing senior was still stuck at the Fourth-order Limit—neither he nor his generals could surmount that divide.

If even this senior was so encumbered, how could they be blindly confident?

“The Legendary Realm is too remote for us; let’s stay grounded and improve step by step.”

Jiang Luoxing said.

Several Lords agreed.

Mu Yuan sighed faintly, “Indeed, it’s too distant.”

Dead Bone would still need another month or two, or perhaps even three months, to refine its body to the ultimate limit.

Lord Shepherd himself had not yet reached the peak of Four-order, thus the distance to Legendary was even further for him, far too remote indeed.

Seeing Tianyuan Guy also sigh, everyone else felt even more lament.

If Tianyuan considered the Legendary so distant, what right did they have to harbor such lofty aspirations?

“Lately, there have been numerous battles of Legendary magnitude across the lands. Just yesterday, a Legendary battle erupted in Shiling City.”

The speaker was a senior Lord from a distance.

“I had been tasked with supporting Shiling City with the Pioneer Group some time ago, and under the leadership of a pioneer senior, we eradicated one Monster Tribe after another. It was going smoothly until we discovered that the Monster Tribes had external reinforcements. A Legendary monster charged thousands of miles and ambushed our headquarters at Shiling City.

“Fortunately, the pioneer leader was well-prepared and had already stationed another Legendary officer to lie in wait in Shiling City, who managed to slay the Six-Eyed Monster Legend on the spot.

“That battle was earth-shattering, as if the heavens and the earth were being split apart. It didn’t last long, as our pioneer leader quickly executed the Six-Eyed Legend, but despite the swift resolution, the remaining shockwaves still destroyed a small part of Shiling City, resulting in significant losses.”

This was why Mu Yuan did not wish to stage the battlefield within Tianyuan Territory.

Although he had large-scale defensive Techniques, facing a Legendary was still fraught with risk. Having the battlefield set at Wolf Head Mountain was much safer; even if the Wolf Head Mountain Fortress were shattered, the loss would still be within his capacity to bear.

Soon, the trading assembly began, and one Lord after another took the stage, the scale of which was considerably larger than half a month prior.

Mu Yuan too exchanged some materials.

He and other senior Lords like Liu Miumiu purchased some special materials and a variety of basic Soul Remnants.

Duo Lai needed special materials for cultivation.

The construction of the Thunder Magnetic Coil Tower also required Rare Level primary materials which could be hoarded in excess.

During this time, a Lord inquired whether he was still interested in buying Epic remnants.

Mu Yuan declined.

“Unless the value is particularly low, or the Epic of a certain type is unusual, then I might consider buying.”

Duo Lai, by devouring Epic remnants, could still achieve some level of improvement.

Yet, acquiring a single piece of Epic remnants could cost hundreds of Soul Crystals, or even require High-order Soul Remnants to trade, which was excessively costly. He had spared no expense before to push Duo Lai into Legendary as soon as possible. Yet, to continue purchasing Epic remnants now would be unsustainable for his Tianyuan Territory.

And besides, he really didn’t have such great capacity.

The number of Lords asking if he had any High-order Soul Remnants for sale was not few.

Mu Yuan still had two High-order Soul Remnants in his possession, but he didn’t urgently need anything specific. So he decided to hold onto them for now.

If he needed to design a High-order blueprint and urgently required a particular High-order material in the future, having an Excellence Soul Remnant on hand would facilitate much easier exchanges.

The Lords were disappointed.

But this was to be expected.

Tianyuan couldn’t possibly provide High-order Soul Remnants every time. After all, Tianyuan was a fairly new Lord who had been around for just over half a year. What unrealistic expectations they had harbored!
