Breakthrough to Legendary: Dragon Speaker Transformation (5000)

Chapter 540: Conditions for Breaking Through to Legendary, Dragon Speaker's Transformation (5000)

Upon seeing the effect description above, Cao Xing's eyes widened instantly!

"What the fuck? This thing for a light-type mage is actually a required material to break through to Legendary?"

"Good grief! The eighth round actually rewards such an important item, it's a bit outrageous!"

And this also made Cao Xing understand one thing.

For hero creatures to break through to Legendary, they need the corresponding Relic.

"The Mark of Light corresponds to the light-type mage, so what does a Frost Mage like me need?"

"And what about Sarah the assassin, Dragon Speaker Bing Lan, what kind of Relics do they need to break through to Legendary?"

Cao Xing couldn't help but let his imagination run wild.

Previously, he was completely clueless about the Legendary realm.

Now, he at least had a vague understanding.

This was also the first Relic he had acquired so far, and he solemnly placed it into his backpack.

"Very well, when I have time, I'll go ask Bing Lan to see if she knows the specific method to break through to Legendary."

At this point, the eight rounds of rewards for [Uproot] were completely tallied.

The harvest was simply too huge; one could only say it truly lived up to an S-rank quest!

And this also gave Cao Xing a new idea.

"Aside from Uproot, I still have an SS-rank quest that hasn't been completed."

"The rewards for each ring of an S-rank quest are already so overpowered, so this SS-rank quest must be even more astonishing!"

Of course, the difficulty was also more astonishing.

After all, the first ring was to kill a Legendary monster, something Cao Xing couldn't possibly touch at his current stage.

"Next, let's check out the equipment dropped by those red-robed bishops and archbishops."

This time, he killed two archbishops, one Watchers, and five red-robed bishops.

In total, they harvested three Epic-quality weapons and one Epic-quality piece of equipment.

As for why it wasn't eight pieces?

Naturally, it was because even among red-robed bishops, not everyone had an Epic piece of equipment or weapon on hand.

The three bishops killed previously in Lake Doron City all dropped Epic weapons because the Church of Light required them to carry out some important missions.

Therefore, before heading out, they would be equipped with corresponding top-tier weapons.

Therefore, even for the Church of Light, Epic equipment was very scarce.

Cao Xing first checked the attributes of that broadsword and that coat.

[Cleaving Void Broadsword (Orange)]

[Quality: Epic]

[Equipment Level: Level 80]

[Weapon Attack Power: 6173 ~ 6245]

[Attached Special Effect ①: Strength + 1700, Agility + 1500, Attack Speed + 20%]

[Attached Special Effect ③: Void Slaughter (Activate the power contained within the broadsword, causing your basic attacks to carry blade-qi effects, increasing attack range by an additional 30 meters, lasting for 80 seconds. Cool-down time: 60 minutes)]

(Equipment Description: A broadsword containing the power of the cleaving void. Be careful not to be scratched by its blade-qi — Kahn Schmidt.)

[Radiant Relic Staff (Orange)]

[Quality: Epic]

[Equipment Level: Level 70]

[Weapon Attack Power: 5448 ~ 5619]

[Attached Special Effect ①: Spirit + 1300, Physique + 1000, Casting Speed + 20%]

[Attached Special Effect ②: Advanced Light Element Amplification (The moment a light element attack is launched, there is a 30% chance to increase this attack's damage by 70%)]

[Attached Special Effect ③: Relic Power (After activation, reduces the cooldown of all self light-type spells by 30%, casting speed + 50%, lasting 60 seconds)]

(Equipment Description: An ancient staff sealed in ruins for many years, upon which some unknown change has occurred.)

[Spirit Serpent Coat (Orange)]

[Quality: Epic]

[Armor: 842 ~ 893]

[Attached Special Effect ①: Agility + 1500, Physique + 1000]

[Attached Special Effect ③: Spirit Serpent's Pupil (When hit by a control skill, immunize against one control effect and increase own movement speed by 30% for 30 seconds. This effect can be triggered once every 5 minutes)]

(Equipment Description: This coat is crafted from mysterious spirit serpent skin, possessing extremely flexible characteristics. Put it on, and you will be like a phantom in battle; no one will be able to catch you…)

After reading the introduction on the equipment, Cao Xing immediately chuckled.

"This coat is quite interesting; both special effects can increase movement speed by 30%, totaling 60%."

"If you factor in Queens Will and the Black Smoke Totem, that's close to a 200% speed bonus!"

After arriving at this number, a smile appeared on Cao Xing's face once again.

Obviously, this piece of equipment was very suitable for Sarah or Herlie.

Once worn, their movement speed would drive enemies to despair.

However, Sarah already had a golden leather armor on her, so this piece of equipment should be given to Herlie first.

As for the candidate for the staff, needless to say, it was naturally the Holy Light Priest Isabelle.

As for that other Cleaving Void Broadsword, its attributes were mediocre, and there were no territory residents who fought with broadswords in his territory, so it could only be put aside for later.

Cao Xing happily put these three pieces of Epic equipment into his backpack.

Next was the other Epic piece of equipment.

That was dropped from Archbishop Michael, a longsword with a very special appearance.

When Cao Xing took it out, it was like a meteor streaking across before him.

When holding the hilt in his hand, he couldn't feel its weight at all, nor could he see the shape of its blade.

And when you wielded the longsword to launch an attack, dazzling light would burst forth to form the blade body!

The blade body exuded a sharp aura, as if it could cut through everything!

"Tsk tsk, with this appearance, it could even pass for a Legendary weapon!"

Although this weapon's appearance was quite gorgeous, it was unfortunately only of Epic quality.

He glanced at the attributes.

[Daybreak]

[Quality: Epic]

[Equipment Level: Level 90]

[Weapon Attack Power: 7871 ~ 8156]

[Attached Special Effect ①: Spirit + 1800, Agility + 1500, Attack Speed + 20%]

[Attached Special Effect ②: Morning Light Strike (When attacking, reduces the opponent's armor by 300 points, stackable up to 5 times)]

[Attached Special Effect ③: Light of Daybreak (When casting a skill, there is a 50% chance to recover 5% of own Health. Trigger interval: 10 seconds)]

(Equipment Description: A light sword crafted from a large amount of light runestones, possessing powerful destructive and healing power.)

Cao Xing praised: "Not bad, the equipment level of this light sword is quite high."

"And the two special effects attached to it are also very awesome, balancing output and survivability."

After all, once reaching the Hero-level, the vitality of those powerhouses was too thick; without Eternal Power, it would take a very long time to recover to peak condition.

And this weapon could recover Health by percentage, which was still very powerful.

Of course, the most important thing was that this weapon looked cool!

Just imagine, when you were fighting someone else, the opponent pulled out a cold weapon.

While you directly pulled out a light sword, crushing the opponent purely on styling alone!

If Cao Xing weren't a mage, he would have wanted to use this weapon himself.

"When I watched Bing Lan fight before, she always condensed an ice sword; she probably doesn't have a weapon of her own yet."

"Right on time, this weapon can be given to her."

Having decided on the recipient of this weapon, at this point, this harvest was basically all tallied up.

Next was the segment Cao Xing was even more looking forward to!

That was, digesting these rewards and enhancing the strength of the territory members.

First of all, naturally, was that Overlord-level soul.

Without thinking, this soul was meant for Dragon Speaker Bing Lan.

After all, as the only Mutated Commander-level creature, coupled with Tier 10 strength, there was no one more suitable in the entire territory than her.

Cao Xing first headed all the way to the buffer zone of the territory, arriving at a place close to the fourth ring area of the territory.

At a glance, he saw a tall building constructed from stones and ice appearing ahead.

The appearance looked like a lair, with a very high entrance capable of letting dozens of people squeeze inside.

This was a dragon nest specially built for Seraphis.

After Cao Xing walked in, he saw two figures inside.

Bing Lan was holding a towel in her hand, washing the blood stains off Seraphis's body.

The gurgling sound of running water rang out.

And this giant dragon was also lying on the ground, seemingly enjoying this feeling very much.

At this moment, upon seeing Cao Xing enter, this person and dragon simultaneously cast their gazes over.

Bing Lan turned around, and then slightly bowed to him,

By now, she had long since acknowledged Cao Xing's status as a lord, so she wasn't as cold as before.

Then, her thin lips parted slightly and she asked: "Is there something you need?"

Cao Xing did not speak and directly threw the [Dawn] in his hand over.

"Hum!"

This lightsaber composed of light elements emitted a slight vibrato in the air.

Bing Lan subconsciously grasped the hilt, and at the same time felt the magical power contained within this weapon.

It was enough to increase her attack power by another notch.

Bing Lan's cold expression moved slightly.

Then she nodded gently and said, "Thank you."

Cao Xing did not say much more and took out Michael's Overlord soul from his backpack.

The moment this massive soul appeared, Dragon Speaker and the giant dragon Seraphis both felt a throb deep within their souls.

Now, one of them was a Mutated Commander, and the other was a Commander-level creature.

This soul had a huge effect on both this person and the dragon.

Especially for Dragon Speaker; if she used this soul and successfully transformed, she would be a Mutated Overlord-level creature, on the same level as Malenia.

"This is—a soul that can allow me to break through to the Overlord?" Bing Lan asked with a look of doubt.

"That's right."

Cao Xing directly tossed the soul over.

"Give it a try and see if you can break through to the Overlord."

Dragon Speaker reached out and solemnly took it, then nodded and said, "Alright."

As the words fell, the woman neatly patted the soul into her body.

A few minutes later, bursts of destructive aura gradually emanated from within her body.

And within a short time, this aura filled the entire territory!

At the same time, Cao Xing saw once again that the phantom of that giant dragon appeared behind Dragon Speaker.

That was a white giant dragon, crouching behind her.

Its huge dragon eyes were tightly closed, yet they exuded a suffocatingly majestic aura.

The vast dragon might rose up, making the aura on Dragon Speaker's body increasingly astonishing!

A few minutes later, the aura on Dragon Speaker had condensed to a peak.

Just when Cao Xing thought she was going to succeed this time, the phantom behind Dragon Speaker suddenly dimmed a lot.

Her brows gradually knitted together, and her whole body began to tremble violently.

At this moment, she seemed to be in extreme pain, and even the giant dragon phantom behind her grew increasingly dim.

Cao Xing sighed inwardly, "Are we going to fail?"

"Sure enough… wanting to break through to a Mutated Overlord is not that easy."

"But it doesn't matter, next time we get another Overlord soul, we should be able to break through successfully."

Including Seraphis on the side, the gaze looking at Bing Lan was also filled with worry.

Just when Cao Xing thought Bing Lan was going to fail, that giant dragon phantom suddenly opened its eyes.

A pair of profound pupils seemed to span endless space, coming before Cao Xing.

Then, it slowly opened its giant mouth and emitted a terrifying dragon roar.

"Roar!" The sound wave instantly diffused in the air, instantly suppressing Dragon Speaker's extremely chaotic aura!

The next moment, a terrifying aura erupted from Bing Lan's body!

The system prompt appeared.

[Your territory member: Dragon Speaker Bing Lan has successfully transformed into a Mutated Overlord-level creature, base attributes increased by 30%, activated domain: Dragon Rider Domain]

[Dragon Rider Domain: Increases own and controlled Ice Dragon attributes by 30%, and reduces own skill cooldown time by 30%]

At this moment, a look of pleasant surprise instantly appeared on Cao Xing's face.

"Good grief, I originally thought it was going to fail, but it actually succeeded!"

"Is that the power of the white giant dragon?"

Bing Lan opened her eyes at this moment, seemingly quite surprised as well.

She said softly, "I didn't expect that this breakthrough should have failed, but it was actually influenced by the power of bloodline and forcibly succeeded."

Cao Xing smiled and said, "It seems that the power of bloodline in your body also doesn't want you to fail."

Dragon Speaker nodded gently.

Although her breakthrough had some twists and turns, overall, the result was quite good.

Cao Xing glanced at the newly activated domain attributes.

Bing Lan's [Dragon Rider Domain] each had their own merits compared to Hilda's [Queen's Domain].

Hilda's affected all Blood Spiders, increasing attributes by 20%.

Whereas Dragon Speaker could only increase her own and the controlled giant dragon's attributes by 30%.

In terms of overall benefits, it seemed that the Blood Spider Queen's side was superior, but it wasn't actually calculated that way.

After all, the domain activated by each Overlord-level creature was the most suitable for itself.

Bing Lan herself possessed extremely powerful individual combat strength, and now after activating the domain, it was equivalent to completing a certain qualitative change.

The aura on her body even directly approached Valkyrie!

With an excited mood, Cao Xing glanced at Bing Lan's attributes.

[Dragon Speaker Bing Lan]

[Race: Half-Dragon]

[Level: Level 94 (Tier 10 Mutated Overlord-level Creature)]

[Detailed Attributes: Click to View]

After reading Dragon Speaker's long attributes, Cao Xing could not help but praise!

With over eighty thousand attack power and four-dimensional attributes close to twenty thousand, compared to when she first arrived at this territory, her strength had improved by more than double!

Coupled with that, the damage values of all her skills had also more than doubled.

It could be said that the current Dragon Speaker could fight about ten of her previous self.

At this moment, the giant dragon Seraphis also felt its master's transformation and appeared very happy.

It gently rubbed its huge dragon head against Bing Lan's body,

and Bing Lan also stretched out her delicate hand to stroke Seraphis's forehead, a gratified smile appearing on her face.

No one knew better than her how significant the meaning was after she became a Mutated Overlord.

This meant that in the future, she would have an even greater probability of charging towards the Legendary realm.

She looked at the man in front of her and said solemnly, "Thank you."

Cao Xing waved his hand and didn't care too much about it.

The stronger Bing Lan was, the stronger his territory's strength represented.

At this time, Cao Xing seemed to have thought of something, and then asked.

"Right, Bing Lan, I have a question I want to ask you."

This cold woman nodded slightly. "Go ahead."

Cao Xing: "Do you know what conditions are needed for a Hero-level creature to break through to Legendary?"

Nowadays, the one closest to the Legendary realm in his territory was naturally Bing Lan.

Although Valkyrie was a level 100 Mutated Overlord, it was because she was the remnant body of a deity.

In other words, she had actually dropped from the deity realm.

Cao Xing also didn't know whether Malenia could break through to Legendary through normal methods.

Therefore, if possible, letting Bing Lan break through to the Legendary realm was the best choice.

A thoughtful look appeared in Bing Lan's eyes, and then she nodded gently.

"I accidentally heard a mysterious powerhouse mention it before."

"To break through to Legendary, besides our own strength reaching the Tier 10 limit, we also need to find some different Relics."

"These Relics must have attributes that are most suitable for oneself."

"In addition, just like when we broke through to Master and Hero, we need a certain special carrier of power."

"Before I joined the territory, I didn't know what this carrier of power was."

"And now that I've joined your territory, that thing is called the Heart of Power."

Cao Xing nodded in sudden realization, which was about what he had anticipated.

To break through to Legendary, 3 conditions were required.

1: Level reaches 100, which is the Tier 10 limit.

2: Need to possess Relics corresponding to the class.

3: Need a Legendary Heart of Power.

(PS: Although the requirements for breaking through to Legendary are very high, the enhancement will also far exceed that from Tier 7 to Tier 8. Every Legendary is a strategic-level power, and with the opening of later expansion packs, corresponding item exchanges will also be added.)

Clearly, none of these three conditions were things that could be easily achieved; the difficulty was quite immense.

Bing Lan continued, "Besides that, as I said before, there is a probability of failure when breaking through to Legendary."

"And once it fails, not only will the Heart of Power disappear, but even the Relic will need its divine power replenished due to exhaustion."

"Only the higher one's own potential is, the greater the probability of breaking through to Legendary will be."

Cao Xing's gaze narrowed slightly, and then he thought to himself.

"This fucking thing is really a bit difficult."

"Not only does it require the Heart of Power, it also requires corresponding Relics, and most importantly, it's still not a 100% successful breakthrough."

"No wonder the Old King hasn't cultivated a Legendary-level successor for so many years."

Cao Xing sighed endlessly, then continued to ask: "Then do we know what kind of Relics we need to break through to Legendary?"

Bing Lan replied: "For powerhouses like us who use swords, what is needed are some broken swords containing divine power."

"And for mages like you, depending on the attributes, what is needed are some badges of Legendary mages, staves, and the like—in short, things containing divine power."

"Aside from that, I don't know about those special classes."
