Chapter 501: Chapter 326: The Ice Witch’s Relic
“Witch and Hunter, I’ve heard of your names, let me introduce myself again, Thousand Changer, captain of the Ice Demon Pirate Group, decipherer of the Ice Witch’s secret! Palu!”
“Witch, and Hunter too! In my quest to uncover the secrets within our hearts, I have longed for you across the boundless seas for several nights, just awaiting your response!”
Palu extended his hand, passionately shaking hands with Chen Qi.
Chen Qi also reached out, and the two shook hands politely.
In that instant, Chen Qi could feel the powerful, chaotic Spirit Power Field emanating from Palu!
His Spirit Power Field was like a huge blob of putty, sometimes as imposing as a mountain, sometimes as subtle as a thin stream.
...
This was the state of a Spirit Power Origin Ascension after a Dice Seer’s transformation, which, under certain circumstances, allows control over one’s own Spirit Power Field, to achieve various disguises and powerful magic techniques.
However, as a consequence, his normal state Spirit Power Field would be incredibly chaotic.
And this Spirit Power Field, imbued with the essence of the Dice Phase, also suggested two things: that he had recently performed a special “Dice Dissolve.”
Second, starting from his Spiritual Power Origin, Palu was nearing the end of the Fourth Rank Legend.
Under normal circumstances, the Fourth Rank Legend is a lengthy stage and, in many ordinary eras, it is also where many heroes meet their endpoint.
Even in Shell Country Imperial City, a Legend would be someone of the caliber of a family elder.
However, in times of chaos, this is the first step towards divinity.
Chen Qi recalled the knowledge associated with Legend.
Within the Legend, the three most important aspects are Spiritual Power Origin Ascension, Domain Release, and Descent.
Spiritual Power Origin Ascension is akin to stepping onto the path of the Transcendent through meditation techniques, requiring one to reshape their own spiritual power origin by some means, transforming it from mere Spiritual Power into an entirely new form of strength.
And complete Domain Release, Descent, are moves within the Legend, and whether these two moves are mastered determines the strength of a Legend.
A Legend who has not mastered Domain Release is definitely no match for one who has.
The relic of the ‘Flower Witch’ that Fen possesses could enable her to master the art of the domain of life.
However, given Fen’s current strength, she still needs to put in considerable effort to set foot in the ‘Domain.’
Chen Qi thought about it, he himself had assimilated the Lake Sword and possessed the Deep Sea Tentacle Compression Ball.
Both items could serve as materials for the ‘Domain.’
However, the power he wielded was still far from the Legend’s ‘Domain.’
The Fourth Rank Legend’s Domain is a force powerful enough to alter reality and dictate rules.
At this juncture, Fen asked, her curiosity piqued:
“What, exactly, was that giant ship just now?”
Fen could sense that Palu was a Legend far stronger than themselves, yet Palu, as the legendary captain, was chased like a dog that had lost its home by the giant ship just moments ago.
The captain of the Ice Demon Pirate Group, Palu, fell silent for a moment before he answered gravely:
“The Black Blade Ship, belonging to the Black Blood Empire, under Black Prison, is led by Blood General, the commander of the Seventh Fleet of the Black Beard Empire.”
Upon hearing this, both Fen and Bree were momentarily stunned.
“Black Prison…”
Fen had heard from her teacher that at the birth of daylight, there existed thirteen ancient Extraordinary Organizations.
They were once the largest thirteen Hunter Organizations of the Age of No Light, dominating the era, and as the war ended and daylight rose, these Hunter Organizations also became the foundation upon which nations were built.
Inside each major country, depending on the Nature they oversee, they also control different Extraordinary Organizations.
The commerce and craftsman’s guilds in Shell Country, the gardens in Golden Flower Bird Kingdom, the White Tower Library in White Tower Federation…
These organizations have ruled their respective countries for a thousand years, and over the course of a long era, these ancient Extraordinary Organizations have also undergone significant changes.
Some of these organizations are the King’s blades, some even hold power above that of the King.
Some have become extremely large, even bloated, like the upper echelons of major companies such as Shell Country’s commerce guilds, craftsman alliances, Steam Hand, and Shell Country’s Big Bank, all of which are subordinate to these two major organizations.
Others have become exceedingly small, such as the Lighthouse of the White Tower Federation, which is said to have fewer than a hundred members.
Some have almost vanished from the world, their very names forgotten, such as the Extraordinary Organizations of the Void Phase, Dice Phase.
Besides these, there are organizations that have hardly changed over a thousand years, advocating elitism and absolute power.
And the Black Prison of the Black Blood Empire, representing the ‘Blade’ Nature, is one such crazed Blade Phase Organization.
It champions ‘combat,’ believing that only the strong may command the strong, adhering to ancient martial customs.
Only those who have distinguished themselves on the battlefield and won the favor of the Valkyrie can gain recognition from Black Prison.
Moreover, those acknowledged must choose a ‘Black Prison Hunter’ on the Valkyrie’s battlefield and defeat them to become a member of the Black Prison Hunter.
Chen Qi stroked his chin, though he had just ascended to the status of Legend, he could also consider matters pertaining to the Saint.
The path of the Saint, while seemingly elusive to the common folk, does indeed exist.
Without a grand opportunity, there are typically only three ways to become a Saint.
The first is to find one of those thirteen major organizations, or their subsidiaries, achieve unimaginable feats, then join them and complete missions.
The second is to join an ancient, super-family by marriage, sign various contracts, and journey to the frontier to resist monsters from beyond the world. If one survives for four years without perishing on the border and successfully returns, they can queue to receive one of the scarce titles of ‘Saint.’
