Inside the Calamity Court Divine Kingdom, on the Immortal Floating Island.
CHISSS...
CHISSS...
As Zorn completed the channeling,
the floating Divine Kingdom - Angel Armant’s many parts began to disassemble on their own.
Then, each part began to pierce his flesh from the outside, fusing with his own Sequence frawork.
CHISSS...
The fusion of each part brought a sharp, stinging pain.
But the amplifying effect was also significant.
The fusion of each part brought a substantial enhancent.
About half a day later,
as the final Feather Blade Sequence structure poured into the depths of his Sequence, its main body floated up behind Zorn.
A complete six-winged Divine Kingdom - Angel Armant was officially implanted.
VMMMM...
The entire set of the Divine Kingdom - Angel Armant emanated a silver glow.
Zorn floated into the air.
’This Angel Armant naturally cos with the ability to fly. It’s truly a top-tier implant forged from the materials of a Crown-level expert.’
’I just finished the implantation, and it hasn’t fully fused and been absorbed yet, but it’s already increased my Sequence strength by about half a level.’
’The improvents to my mobility, long-distance travel, and Defense are especially astonishing.’
’And my strength in these areas wasn’t weak to begin with.’
’After a while, once I completely fuse with and absorb the Angel Armant, my Sequence Level will increase by a level and a half.’
’It’s not as good as the two-level increase from a Twelve-winged Angel Armant,’
’but it’s still much better than the one-level increase from a Two-winged Angel Armant.’
After carefully examining the Divine Kingdom Angel Armant,
Zorn’s thoughts turned to the three choices Lord Ossirion had given him a few days ago.
Although Zorn had already made a general decision and weighed the pros and cons of each choice,
the specifics would have to wait until after he advanced to the Upper Rank Level and completed five years of secluded cultivation.
After all, the situation in the outside world was not static.
The optimal solution now might not be the optimal solution in five or six years.
Slowly collecting his thoughts, Zorn refocused on his current secluded cultivation within the Divine Kingdom.
’Advancing to the Upper Rank Level next shouldn’t be much of a problem.’
’For one, the many Sacred Marks I carved in the Steam Realm of the Holy Relic World are recovering.’
’For another, the Disaster Court Tree of the Magic Ring provides a very strong buff to Middle Rank Level Transcendents like us.’
’Plus, there are the vast Star Mark resources I’ve absorbed myself.’
’After I fully absorb and stabilize this Angel Armant, I should be able to advance to the Upper Rank Level in half a year, a year at most.’
’Advancing to the Upper Rank Level is just a formality for .’
’The resources I’ve obtained in the Divine Kingdom are the real focus of my cultivation from now on.’
’For resources from Level 11 to Level 15, the Divine Kingdom will open a Divine Kingdom Source Pool on my Floating Island.’
’Excluding the resources I already have, leveling up once more, or even twice, won’t be a problem.’
’I’ve also obtained the Divine Kingdom - Angel Armant.’
’The most crucial things are that one Upper Rank Ancient God Curse Seed and the three Crown Forbidden Curse Seeds.’
Powers like the Highland Three Divine Kingdoms, the Calamity Court, the Star Remains, and the Eternal Curtain...
...all possess their own reserves of Forbidden Curses and Ancient God Curses.
The Upper Rank Ancient God Curse Seed.
It is an Ancient God Curse conceived and nurtured by the Tree of the Magic Ring within the Calamity Court Divine Tree.
Zorn was quite satisfied with this type of Ancient God Curse, which leaned toward the "Divine Punishnt" characteristic.
The Divine Punishnt characteristic often cos with a powerful execution ability.
Furthermore, Zorn’s Divine Kingdom had already begun to draw from the "Cosmic Demon Pool."
Zorn had his own plan to further nurture the "Ancient God Curse Seed."
An Ancient God Curse nurtured by the Cosmic Demon Pool would have its strength and characteristics elevated to a whole new level.
It would be equivalent to fully strengthening an "Ancient God Curse" one ti.
By the sa token,
the sa applied to the Crown Forbidden Curse Seeds.
A "Crown Forbidden Curse Seed" nurtured by the "Cosmic Demon Pool"...
...would have its strength greatly increased, becoming very close to a conventional "Ancient God Curse."
Crown Forbidden Curse Seeds.
They are separated directly from the Sequences of Crown-level experts from other kingdoms, who are captured and confined within a Magic Ring cage. The Disaster Court Tree of the Magic Ring then absorbs them as nutrients.
The reason these Forbidden Curse Seeds are called "Crown Forbidden Curse Seeds" is that they contain a certain "Crown characteristic."
When cast, it’s like a Crown-level expert using a smurf account, possessing extrely destructive power.
This is a huge help to Upper Rank Level Transcendents.
Their power can even surpass that of so Ancient God Curses that haven’t been fully cultivated.
’The Forbidden Curse Seed Source Pool only opens once a year, and the next opening is in five months. I’ll need to go over then and pick out the Crown Forbidden Curse Seeds I need.’
’The Ancient God Curse Seeds, on the other hand, are available once every three years. The next opening is in a little over a year.’
’I can’t miss these two opportunities. I have the Tree of the Magic Ring. After I get these Sequence seeds, I’ll put them into the Tree of the Magic Ring and use the Cosmic Demon Pool Root Source to directly nurture and cultivate them.’
’That way...’
As he thought, Zorn’s pupils constricted, and he suddenly clenched his fist.
’Once they’re cultivated to a certain stage...’
’My Upper Rank Ancient God Curse and Forbidden Curses will be exceptionally powerful, far surpassing anyone else of the sa rank.’
’And... as ti goes on...’
’...especially when we enter the Era of the Star Realm’s mythological Chapter, that will be my era entirely!’
For a period of ti after that,
Zorn began his secluded cultivation within the Divine Kingdom.
Zorn was not the only one.
The many extraordinary geniuses in the Divine Kingdom did the sa.
Having finished absorbing and assimilating their Angel Armants, they each began their own journey of secluded cultivation.
Ti flew by.
Five months passed in the blink of an eye.
With the opening of a new round for the Crown Forbidden Curse Seed Source Pool,
this batch of Transcendents entered the Forbidden Curse Seed Source Pool to select powerful Crown Forbidden Curse Seeds that suited them.
In this round, Zorn only selected two Crown Forbidden Curse Seeds.
One was a Forbidden Curse leaning toward the abilities of the "Wanderer Sequence."
The other was a passive-characteristic Forbidden Curse, "Star Trace Fissure."
Zorn’s own Sequence possessed the "Traveler" characteristic, and his Divine Kingdom - Angel Armant also had the high-mobility characteristic of a Far Traveler.
Therefore, Zorn was fully capable of utilizing the abilities of the "Wanderer Sequence."
The other one, "Star Trace Fissure," could enhance the damage and subsequent pulling force of Zorn’s Fissure-related attacks.
Of course, the main purpose of this Forbidden Curse was to coordinate with the Ancient God Curse Zorn had planned.
Zorn also had an idea for a third Crown Forbidden Curse Seed, but he didn’t co across a suitable one this ti.
Each ti the Crown Forbidden Curse Seed Source Pool opened, only a portion of the seeds were released.
If there wasn’t a suitable one this ti, there might be one the next ti he ca.
After obtaining these two Crown Forbidden Curse Seeds, Zorn put them directly into the frawork of his Divine Kingdom’s Tree of the Magic Ring, allowing them to be nurtured by the Cosmic Demon Pool Root Source that the Tree of the Magic Ring was absorbing.
This way, even before Zorn inherited them, their Sequence Level could be steadily raised.
At the sa ti, the power of the Cosmic Demon Pool’s root source could be used to strengthen them,
allowing the power of these Crown Forbidden Curses to touch the threshold of an Ancient God Curse.
Having laid out his plans long ago with the Cosmic Demon Pool, Divine Kingdom, Tree of Calamity Magic Ring, and more, Zorn would now build an extrely powerful foundation of strength and advantage.
Three months after obtaining the Crown Forbidden Curse Seeds,
the Divine Kingdom - Angel Armant was completely stabilized.
By drawing a portion of power from the Disaster Court Magic Ring Tree and investing one of his own Sacred Marks,
Zorn began to push for the Upper Rank Level.
It took about a week.
Zorn successfully advanced to the Upper Rank Level.
With the breakthrough in his Sequence Level,
his Sequence strength underwent a major transformation, constructing the Upper Rank Evil Spirit Wizard Sequence frawork and the Upper Rank Fighting Master frawork.
His Star Trace Gang Qi and Holy Witch Evil Energy both underwent a qualitative transformation to the Upper Rank Level.
Upon advancing to Level 11, Zorn’s Sequence Experience skyrocketed, only stopping when it reached 66% of the way to the next level.
The two years he had spent stuck at 99% Experience at Level 10 allowed Zorn to accumulate a massive amount of Spiritual Essence and Fighting Essence.
Although he didn’t go straight to Level 12 after breaking through,
pushing his Sequence Experience two-thirds of the way was already quite impressive.
As Zorn advanced to the Upper Rank Level,
his Angel Armant also transford along with his advancent, providing Zorn with an even greater boost at the Upper Rank Level.
This was the benefit of a powerful Divine Kingdom - Angel Armant.
It could transform and improve along with the Transcendent’s own Sequence strength.
Before he knew it,
it was already ti for the Ancient God Curse Seed Source Pool to open.
...
On the plaza of the Ancient God Curse Seed Source Pool Floating Island.
When Zorn arrived, fifty or sixty people were already waiting there.
The opening of the Ancient God Curse Seeds, which happened only once every three years, was not an event to be missed.
At this mont, most of the people on the Floating Island were owners of Angel Armants.
So had their Angel Armants manifested, looking like armored, chanical Angels with silver Feather Blades.
Others had their Angel Armants retracted, not showing them on the surface.
Moreover, the vast majority of the Transcendents who had co to choose an Ancient God Curse this ti had already advanced to the Upper Rank Level.
"Zorn, over here!"
He had just flown over and hadn’t even landed on the Floating Island yet when
Zorn saw Buer, the "Star Shepherd," waving at him while wearing a blood-red Angel Armant.
Zorn imdiately descended toward him.
The other four mbers with Angel Armants under Lord Ossirion were also gathered here.
"Zorn, last ti I saw you, you were Level 10. Now you’ve already advanced to the Upper Rank Level. Looks like you’re almost Level 12!"
The one who spoke was Chapman, the "Cosmic Wanderer."
There wasn’t much animosity between the two.
After their initial battle, they had run into each other several tis in the Tree Nest Arena District and had even sparred twice.
Gradually, they had beco familiar with each other.
"Look who’s talking. You’re already Level 12," Zorn teased.
"Heh... My Talent isn’t as good as yours. If I don’t work hard, I’ll be left even further behind."
Zorn then looked toward the last of the five with a Divine Kingdom Angel Armant.
"This must be Lady Veronica, the ’Witch’!"
"Greetings, Your Excellency Zorn!"
Veronica, the "Witch," who had also reached Level 11, greeted Zorn, her voice exceptionally pleasant.
Although this "Witch," Veronica, seed a bit shy and introverted,
her Witchcraft was formidable.
She had defeated dozens of experts to finally obtain the last Four-winged Angel Armant from Lord Ossirion.
Anyone who could stand here, wearing an Angel Armant and waiting to receive an Ancient God Curse...
...every single one of them, was a powerhouse at the peak of their generation, having fought and killed through countless battles to get here.
Even Chapman, the "Cosmic Wanderer" who had lost to Zorn,
had killed nearly ten ordinary Upper Rank Level Transcendents when he was Level 10 in the Material Plane World, and he had slain countless other Level 10 Transcendents.
"Your Excellency Zorn, your attainnts in Witchcraft are astonishing. Even my master says I need to learn from you."
"I was wondering if you could teach a little about controlling Witchcraft?"
Veronica asked in a soft voice.
"No problem. At the end of every month, I go to the Tree Nest to find people to spar with and test my skills."
"Combat training in between periods of secluded cultivation is essential."
"You can co find at the Tree Nest Arena I frequent to spar and exchange pointers."
"Often, you can only gain a deeper mastery of Witchcraft through combat."
Zorn’s explanation made Veronica’s eyes sparkle.
She said gratefully,
"Then thank you very much, Your Excellency Zorn."
"Besides, I still have many weaknesses when it cos to combat."
As the few of them were talking,
the aura of a Divine Spirit suddenly erged from the high tower on the Floating Island.
Everyone’s minds focused, and they all turned their gazes to the towering Ancient God Curse Seed Source Pool Tower.
The Ancient God Curse Tower was about to open. It was ti to choose a suitable Ancient God Curse.
