Danger, this was just too dangerous.
Mu Yuan wasn’t certain if Dead Bone could be immune to the damage from the Power of Witheredness, but he definitely dared not let this power touch him.
Even at this moment, after the overflowing Power of Witheredness had been exhausted, the forty-meter-wide pit still released a terrifying aura that made the heart flutter.
No one dared to approach!
Duo Lai was still hiding far away.
Oh no, there was someone who did move their feet, trying to edge forward bit by bit. It was Isloa. This guy, upon seeing something novel, acts like he’s totally fearless.
At the very least, Mu Yuan could affirm that the Power of Witheredness was completely depleted, leaving no danger within the pit. The Wither King Bone also wouldn’t bring about any contamination or subsequent effects to the surrounding environment.
Probably.
“The slash just now consumed about 0.33% of the Power of Witheredness, which isn’t much. But if I were to use the Power of Witheredness against real powerhouses, the consumption would surely increase by several or even dozens of times. This small amount of the Power of Witheredness can’t really be considered enough.”
“Moreover, the recovery speed of the Power of Witheredness is indeed slow, as described.”
Lord Shepherd dispelled the ‘Dead Bone template’ and reloaded it. As expected, the reserve of Wither King Bone he held in his hand was still reduced by 0.33%.
He waited.
After a full two hours, the Power of Witheredness had finally returned to its previous level.
Which means…
“If the Power of Witheredness were completely exhausted, it would take about 25 days to fully recover.” This was indeed as slow as a turtle crawling, though for some powerhouses, recovering in under a month for such a trump card was incredibly short.
Mu Yuan wasn’t satisfied.
He thought that General Dead Bone must also be unsatisfied and was looking to see if General Dead Bone could somehow improve the recovery of the Power of Witheredness.
The hierarchy of the Power of Witheredness was high, far beyond what a Four-order Leading Realm shrimp could control.
But conversely, there was no need to wield the Power of Witheredness against Four-order Leaders. Once Dead Bone utilized the power of witheredness, what they might face could be…
Half a day later,
Crack crack crack—
The huge Nest of White Bone, with its thick, intertwined bones that rose from the ground, was slowly retracting, being drawn back into a pair of white Bone Wings stretching out behind Dead Bone, who sat atop the Evolution Altar.
Soon after, the white Bone Wings retracted into the body, and the black-armored silhouette seated on the altar opened its eyes, igniting the Soul Flame. In the deep, moonlit blue of the pupils, a hint of reverent and noble gold seemed to flicker in and out of existence.
Then, all traces of the divine and noble visage vanished without a trace, leaving behind what appeared to be just an unremarkable, ordinary, and inconsequential Black-armored Warrior.
Ordinary warrior Dead Bone, reporting for duty.
Mu Yuan carefully inquired about the gains Dead Bone had made after its evolution.
Indeed, its understanding of how to utilize the Power of Witheredness had become quite profound.
Still, General Dead Bone sighed dissatisfied. It had hoped to leverage the stimulation of its own being during the awakening of the Wither King Bone to excavate its potential and significantly increase its base tri-dimensional attributes, aiming to quickly reach the Extreme Realm.
However,
Its foundational tri-dimensional attributes had substantially increased, and a lot of potential had been excavated, but its potential limit had also risen by a large margin.
Break even.
All in all, the distance between Dead Bone and the Extrem Realm remained vast.
It was still hesitant about whether to give up this portion of potential and break through to Legendary directly? The territory now badly needed a figure in the Legendary Realm; who would take on this responsibility? It was duty-bound.
But Mu Yuan negated this idea.
“There’s no need; we haven’t reached that point yet, and our Tianyuan Territory isn’t without means to deal with Legends.”
The God General Talisman Stone, Staff of Divine Right, they were all trump cards he clutched in his hand.
If other measures were properly utilized, they were not entirely incapable of confronting weaker Legends.
The most important thing was that time hadn’t come yet.
Breaking through now would be damaging the foundation, capping the potential, akin to trading future insecurity for temporary safety.
Moreover, just because Dead Bone met the requirements of ‘Extreme Sublimation’, it didn’t necessarily mean it could safely break through the realm.
Lifeforms with higher potential, when breaking through, naturally need to burn ‘firewood’ that’s several times, dozens of times, or even hundreds of times higher than that of their peers.
And currently, the Tianyuan Territory doesn’t have a complete set of Legendary breakout environments.
Mu Yuan had planned to take Duo Lai and Dead Bone to the Extreme Realm before renting the fully-equipped, luxurious breakthrough altars in Pan Shi City.
Yet such plans were now null and void.
He was fortunate that he had thought ahead before the integration with Lanxing, and had purchased some auxiliary treasures for breaking through to Legendary, either with Soul Crystals or with Contribution Points.
At the core of those preparations was a set of 12 items that, when combined, could enhance the probability of breakthrough, slow down the burning rate of ‘firewood’, and ensure that the breaker wouldn’t die in case of failure.
Of such core sets, Mu Yuan had prepared two.
Even so, should the attempt to advance fail, the breaker would still be seriously injured and would need to spend a significant amount of time recuperating and replenishing before trying to break through again.
A Four-order Peak who had honed their physique to the limit, to perfection, could significantly increase the probability of a successful breakthrough. This has been proven by research papers.
The path to the Legendary Realm provided by the Tai Xuan Alliance is quite mature when compared to some smaller nations, despite the Alliance being established for just over sixty years.
Having heard this, Dead Bone extinguished the idea of forcing a breakthrough.
