Chapter 617 - 611: Invitation
For a Tier Eleven Lord, more than ninety billion magic energy is really too little.
Lin You gained more than eighty billion magic energy just by killing Lord Demons this day, and with the ordinary demons added in, it could almost reach over a hundred billion.
Looks like this guy either stored the magic energy in the kingdom or spent it all—a really poor guy.
"It’s a pity, three of them got away."
Several people from Beidou gathered around, regrettably looking in the direction the three escaped.
They made so many preparations, used all their best skills, and took them by surprise, yet they still couldn’t kill everyone who was trapped.
This shows just how difficult it is to kill a lord with more than seven Divine Formats.
But soon, they couldn’t help but feel excited again.
Though three escaped, they successfully killed the other four, and a total of four Divine Formats. This was unimaginable before, even more than they expected.
"Quick, take a look at which types of Divine Formats they are." Hundred Beasts urged anxiously from the side.
Spiritual didn’t waste words and directly put away the damaged Five Elements Sealing Array, revealing the ground full of corpses and four Seven-Colored Divine Formats shining with light.
Then Beidou extended his hand, and the four Divine Formats turned into streaks of light and gathered in front of them, corresponding to the Elemental, Insect, Humanoid, and Undead types.
Upon seeing this, Lin You’s eyes lit up; apart from the Elemental type, he could use all of these four Divine Formats.
The expressions of several people from Beidou varied: some were excited, some disappointed.
Especially Hidden Heaven on the side, who gave a bitter smile.
Because he himself belonged to the Insect type, and he already had the Elemental, Humanoid, and Undead Divine Formats, meaning he was directly excluded from this Divine Format distribution.
"Haha, Hidden Heaven, you’re so unlucky; there’s not even one you can use."
Hundred Beasts, knowing Hidden Heaven’s Divine Format collection, burst into laughter and teased him.
The others had odd looks on their faces, wanting to laugh but holding it back.
"Scram, you’re acting like you didn’t gain anything." Hidden Heaven glanced at Hundred Beasts in annoyance.
Then Beidou on the side also shook his head helplessly: "I need the Humanoid and Beast types, so I won’t fight over them with you."
With strength over eight Divine Formats, collecting usable Divine Formats is not easy, as they are only missing two types.
Hundred Beasts was just luckier, as he happened to need the Elemental type and quickly said, "In that case, I’ll take this Elemental type first, and in the future, when there’s a chance, Beidou, I’ll help get you the other two types you need."
"Fine."
Beidou nodded silently, not disappointed.
Because for him, even with one more Divine Format, it wasn’t enough to become an emperor, so he wasn’t as eager as those Tier Nine Lords.
"The remaining three, let Spiritual, Cyan Lotus, and Brother Saint Protection have them, as per the earlier agreement, each of you just needs to compensate me and Hidden Heaven with 100,000 Rule Fragments."
Items like Divine Formats are seldom sold, making them hard to price.
But since the distribution was internal, there was no need to consider these things—they decided on a symbolic price.
Four people, each paying them 100,000, which totals a considerable 400,000 Rule Fragments.
Beidou clearly knew Lin You couldn’t immediately come up with so many Rule Fragments, so he continued, "I’ll cover Lin You’s 200,000; without him, we couldn’t have obtained so many Divine Formats in one go."
"This... is not quite right?" Lin You was a bit embarrassed.
In front of these veteran lords, he truly felt like a pauper, unable to come up with even 200,000 Rule Fragments.
Not to mention 200,000, he couldn’t even muster 20,000 right now.
"It’s alright, this amount of Rule Fragments is nothing to me." Beidou said slowly, "And I’m not helping you for free. In the future, if I find a target, you’ll have to come help me."
During the battle, he personally experienced the terror of Lin You’s Barbaric Roar, directly increasing his attributes by 30% or more.
And that last Space Lock skill surprised him even more.
If he could have Lin You assist him, the chances of slaying other Tier Eleven Lords would greatly increase.
Lin You wasn’t foolish and naturally understood his intent, immediately agreeing, "Of course, you can call for me whenever you need."
"Alright, it’s settled then!"
Receiving his affirmative response, Beidou smiled.
After further discussion, Lin You ultimately obtained the Humanoid type Divine Format.
The reason for choosing this was that the Insect and Undead types relied on numbers, with not much single-target attack capability, easily countered by his Plant type’s high defense.
The Humanoid type, though, posed a serious problem for him with its injury-increasing attribute.
Plus, the Beastification burst skill was a significant threat to him, and the 10% damage reduction from the Divine Format was definitely safer.
"Alright, with everything distributed, let’s leave quickly. Those three who’ve escaped will likely spread the news soon; we’d better lay low for a while as planned."
Beidou stood up, dusting off his clothes, and spoke.
The simultaneous downfall of four Tier Eleven Lords, once this news spread, would certainly cause a great uproar.
Staying here would only draw attention from the realms, and worse, the retaliation from the realms where the four lords belonged, gathering a group to cause trouble for them.
Very quickly, they all got up and headed back towards the Primordial Realm.
And not long after, just as they expected, the news quickly spread among the realms, causing a sensation.
"What did you say? They allied in the Primordial Realm and killed four Tier Eleven Lords?"
"Absolutely true! Those were the words directly from the Tier Eleven Lords who escaped!"
"Hiss! Killing four Tier Eleven at once is too outrageous, isn’t it?"
"At this level of power, logically, they should at least escape even if they can’t fight back, so what exactly happened?"
"I heard it was the new Tier Eleven Lord from the Primordial Realm who used himself as bait to lure them in."
"And his power isn’t just one newly advanced Divine Format, but at least four! Everyone was deceived by him!"
Lords from various realms were exclaiming continuously, all discussing this sudden explosive news.
It’s important to know.
Tier Eleven is second only to the Great Emperor in level, and is the pillar combat power in various realms.
The fall of just one would usually cause a stir, let alone the simultaneous fall of four?
Particularly the news about Lin You left them even more astounded.
A Tier Eleven Lord, who had just advanced a few days ago, actually possessed four Divine Formats, and no one knew—this was hidden too deeply!
The lords who had once chased Lin You turned pale when they heard this news.
With four Divine Formats, killing him was already very difficult.
Moreover, this time, he might acquire a new Divine Format, greatly increasing his power.
They finally abandoned any plans to seize his Divine Formats and withdrew from the Primordial Realm’s border.
This spared Lin You a lot of trouble.
Leaving the subordinate space and returning to the main city, after bidding farewell to Beidou and the others, Lin You directly teleported back to his territory, eagerly taking out the newly acquired Divine Format.
[Would you like to fuse "Divine Format (Humanoid)"?]
[Once fused, irreversible, please choose carefully.]
"Fuse!"
With his response, the Divine Format in his hand suddenly burst into a dazzling, bloodthirsty red gleam.
Encased in the seven-colored halo of the Divine Format itself, it transformed into a stream of light entering his body, slowly merging with the four Divine Formats.
[Fusion successful, change in the number of Divine Formats, changes in various attributes, please check the corresponding interface yourself.]
Lin You trembled all over, only feeling an immense power flooding into his body, coursing through his limbs and bones.
Both physical strength and the five senses were significantly enhanced.
[Name: Lin You (Lord)]
[Race: Human]
[Level: Tier Eleven (5/10)]
[Power: 500,000 (+250,000)]
[Constitution: 1,000,000 (+700,000)]
[Agility: 658,200 (+329,100)]
[Spirit: 1,000,000 (+500,000)]
[Basic Skills: Multiple Mutations, Power of Rule, Space Travel, Rule Transformation, Space Passage, Time Law]
[Divine Power: All attributes +50%]
[Racial Talent: Constitution +20%, Recovery Speed +20%]
[Introduction: Lord Attribute Interface, records detailed strength and skills of the lord, unlockable by Tier Ten Lords.]
The 6,000-plus rule fragments gained from hunting Lord Demons today were not used to enhance Agility, so the basic attributes remained unchanged.
However, because of an additional Divine Format, all supplementary attributes rose by 10%, finally surpassing halfway through Tier Eleven.
Once Divine Formats increased to five, the effect of the Armor of Creation was elevated again.
Damage reduction 10%, 50% resistance to negative effects, 50% recovery speed of Power of Rule, gradually revealing its fangs.
When facing enemies with Divine Formats, he effectively maintains a 20% damage reduction.
Coupled with the Racial Talent’s boost to Constitution, killing him became not so easy.
Until now, he finally had enough self-protection ability in front of those with eight or nine Divine Formats.
"Your Majesty, I have a report."
Just at this moment, Xu Zhong’s voice suddenly sounded from outside, interrupting Lin You’s thoughts.
"Come in."
Lin You closed the interface and looked outside.
In a short while, Xu Zhong quickly stepped in front of him and respectfully bowed.
"Your Majesty, an invitation was received this afternoon from Canglang Kingdom and the Great Wilderness Duchy, inviting you to attend the founding ceremony of their subordinate duchies."
Saying this, he handed over three golden invitations.
"Founding ceremony?"
Lin You took the invitations in puzzlement and opened them one by one.
On them were the signatures of Yan Lie, Situ Jian, and Ji Yunshuang; the three of them were going to establish duchies the day after tomorrow and the following day.
Lin You was greatly surprised.
He wasn’t too surprised about Ji Yunshuang, as he had heard half a month ago that she was preparing for the Saint’s Path.
But Yan Lie and Situ Jian were different; they had just returned from the Life Realm and logically shouldn’t have advanced to Tier Ten so quickly.
Could it be that they encountered some fortuitous event?
Or did they receive support from the Canglang King?
