After going into the sea, I met the witch lady

Chapter 309 Hong Yao, finally meeting
"The pinnacle of skill..."

Listening to this word spoken by the Great Witch of Gold, Colette, Ryan fell into deep thought.

After a long time, a helpless smile appeared on his face.

No matter whether it is the pinnacle of skills or special materials, it is extremely difficult to obtain them.

In fact, the latter is easier.

At least, in the Monster Hunter world, there are special substances left.

And the pinnacle of skill...

In this world, with all the living things in the world, those who can reach the level of a master are extremely rare. As for the realm of "transcendence", the only two people who knew about it in the past thousand years are the Great Witch of Gold, Colette, and Ryan.

Perhaps there are hidden masters in some corner of the world, but there are only one or two more at most.

However, if one wants to reach the ninth level with skills, one needs to have skills above "transcendence".

Ryan has just reached the realm of "transcendence", and the path ahead is still unclear. How can he dare to say that he can definitely reach the "pinnacle of skills"?
Looking at Ryan's expression, the Golden Witch Collette on the opposite side shook her head: "Don't think too much."

"For thousands of years, countless creatures have come one after another, but the pinnacle of skills is still an ethereal thing in legends. People have heard of it, but have never seen it."

"You are still young, but you are much stronger than I was back then. If there is anyone who can really reach the 'pinnacle of skill', I think you are the most likely one."

"Don't be too anxious."

Ryan sighed inwardly.

He didn't want to be so anxious.

But time was not on his side.

After his original form returned and he truly possessed the combat power of a main god, his heart seemed to be shrouded in a layer of endless dark clouds, as if something very bad was about to happen.

In this situation, how could he not be anxious?
"Cough cough..."

Just then, a light cough was heard.

Ryan turned his head to look.

I saw that Frannie's hand had left the staff standing on the ground, and her face turned slightly pale.

But her eyes were very bright.

Obviously, this inheritance was also a huge gain for her.

"Captain." Ryan smiled and waved.

Freni looked over.

They looked into each other's eyes and smiled knowingly.

Not long after Freni completed the inheritance assessment, Cecilia also completed it successfully.

After inheriting the skills from the Great Witch of Wood, the two girls have made great progress in their skills, and the difficulty of absorbing them at this moment has been greatly reduced.

"Eat it, it will make your body stronger."

The golden light carried the [Golden Crystal] and came in front of the two women, and the Great Witch of Gold, Colette, smiled.

Compared to the complete version of [Gold Crystal] that Ryan took, the two women's were undoubtedly much milder. Although the effect was also compromised, what can be absorbed is the best.

"The assessment is over, and it's time for you to embark on a new journey."

The Golden Witch, Colette, smiled and said, "I am glad that future generations will have successors like you."

"If we are destined to meet, we may meet again in the future."

As the sound was heard, cracks began to appear throughout the entire assessment space, and finally it collapsed with a "crack".

Ryan and the other two felt a black screen before their eyes, and then they returned to the bottom of the volcano.

At the last moment before leaving, Ryan saw the girl standing alone with her sword.

Perhaps thousands of years ago, she faced the endless enemies in this way and fought to the end.

……

On the Black Rose that braves the wind and waves.

On the stove, the sizzling meat skewers exude an enticing aroma.

Ryan, Freni and Cecilia sat around the stove. Next to them, Xiao Zi stared at the skewers of meat with eager eyes, his saliva almost flowing out.

"What kind of meat is this? It smells so good!"

There was surprise in Furenee's eyes.

She took the skewer of meat handed to her by Ryan, took a bite, and her bright eyes suddenly sparkled.

"It's delicious! Moreover, it contains extremely powerful energy!"

The big fluffy witch's hat swayed, swaying along with the mood of its owner.

The wolf girl who was tasting the food silently on the side narrowed her eyes and looked very satisfied.

This made Xiao Zi next to him even more impatient, and he started shouting, "Awooo! Awooo!"

"Shut up, you."

Ryan threw the biggest piece into Xiao Zi's mouth. The latter swallowed it with his big mouth and immediately lay down happily.

It wanted to take another bite, but the explosive energy told it that it couldn't eat more.

This guy was so anxious that tears were about to come out.

Ryan took a bite himself.

The meat is chewy, with alternating fat and lean parts.

perfect!

What satisfied him more than the taste was the effect of the food battle.

[Food War: Heart of the Ancestral Dragon]: The strongest chaotic dragon soul is roaring, speed +60%, strength +60%, and any attack will cause the enemy to fall into the negative state of "Red Thunder Devouring", and the damage received is +50%.

This is the strongest food battle effect Ryan has ever seen.

It is worthy of being the Ancestral Emperor Dragon, a beast of chaos.

After eating a small piece of meat, Freni and Cecilia quickly closed their eyes and meditated. It took them a full hour to absorb it.

Feeling their spirituality and physical strength visibly rising, the two women's eyes became extremely bright, yet filled with regret.

With their bodies, eating once a day is already the limit.

Eating too much will do more harm than good.

The same goes for Da Zi.

Even for a natural Red Jade evolved form, there is a limit to its digestive capacity.

Seeing that more than 90% of the barbecue went into Ryan's stomach, Franny and Cecilia felt for the first time the huge gap in physical fitness between them and Ryan.

After expressing their feelings for a while, the three of them started talking about business.

"Mr. Ryan, according to my perception, there should be no heritage sites in the new sea area. The remaining three heritage sites are most likely located in the forbidden sea area." Freni said softly.

Hearing this, Ryan frowned slightly, but soon relaxed.

He had originally thought about visiting a few more heritage sites to improve his strength as much as possible.

In this way, you can have more confidence before challenging the source of Red Yao.

But since Frannie said so, there's nothing we can do.

"In that case, it's time for us to head to the forbidden sea area."

"We also wasted a lot of time in the new sea area."

Ryan thought for a moment and made a solemn decision.

Freni and Cecilia also nodded in agreement.

Ryan took out the nautical chart from his arms and unfolded it: "According to the nautical chart, we have reached the border between the New Sea Area and the Forbidden Sea Area. At the current speed of the [Black Rose], two days will be enough."

"The key point is the 'membrane' between the new sea area and the forbidden sea area."

"It's easy to enter the forbidden sea area, but it's almost impossible to come back if you are at the True God level or above."

"Moreover, between the new sea area and the forbidden sea area, there is a high-risk area called the 'Dead Black Sea'."

"With our strength, the danger of the Black Sea is not a big concern. The key lies in the pursuit of the Golden Sect after entering the forbidden sea area."

"Captain, Miss Cecilia, I have a plan."

"You can join the 'Temple of Overturning', so that I can share the concealment function through the 'Overturning Core'."

"The Overturning Core is a god-level creation. Its concealment ability is so strong that even a god-level expert would have difficulty detecting it."

"We need to find out the situation in the restricted sea area before making a plan."

"no problem."

"it is good."

There was nothing wrong with Freni and Cecilia.

The two women had known about the Temple of Overthrow for a long time, and naturally knew that Ryan now held the sub-core of the Overthrow Core. Joining the Temple of Overthrow was not binding on them, and it was beneficial and harmless.

The process was smooth.

Soon, the two women had an overturned mask in their hands.

Because it is a mask that Ryan increased in weight, it looks more gorgeous.

The two women put it on their faces, and soon, the overturned masks were perfectly hidden under their skin.

"That's pretty much it."

"Before entering the restricted sea area, I have one very important matter to deal with."

Ryan spoke in a deep voice.

"Just go ahead and handle it."

There was doubt in Miss Wolf's eyes, but Freni smiled gently and said.

Ryan nodded at her, then stood up and walked towards the room.

Since he could no longer make any additional breakthroughs, he planned to start challenging the origin of the Red Jade during his trip tonight.

But before that, he had to meditate and adjust his state to the peak.

Looking at Ryan's back disappearing behind the cabin door, Freni turned her head and looked at the boundless sea with a complex look in her eyes.

She thought of the barbecue she had eaten earlier.

In her opinion, it is absolutely impossible for such super-powerful fleshy creatures to exist in this world.

She thought a lot, a lot...

The answer gradually emerged in my heart.

……

Time passes slowly in meditation.

The [Black Rose] follows the set route, and Ryan doesn't need to worry about it.

Before I knew it, time had reached midnight.

Ryan, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, opened his eyes.

The glittering silver light rose and fell in the depths of his eyes, and then returned to darkness.

After some meditation, he not only completely adapted to his stronger body, but also adjusted his condition to the peak moment.

"it's time."

He muttered to himself and went to lie down on the bed.

Close your eyes.

Travel, start!
Light and shadows flew before my eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, Ryan had arrived on a ship at the edge of the old continent in the Monster Hunter World.

Stand up and look up at the sky.

Above the clear blue sky, white clouds are floating, and it seems that everything is calm.

But Ryan knew it was just an illusion.

When the root of the red fire awakens and the red sun is in the sky, everything will be irreversible.

After five hundred years of rest, no one could predict to what extent Hong Yao's root injuries had recovered.

But judging from the recovery progress of the five chaos species, the Red Jade Root has a harvest of all spirits once every hundred years, so it should not be far from complete recovery.

Ryan retracted his gaze, and his body turned into countless silver light particles.

A streak of silver light streaked across the sky, heading towards the peaks of the Irish mountains.

On the ground, countless hunters looked at this scene in surprise.

The expressions of some of the powerful hunters became extremely serious.

They felt a physical and mental threat from the silver light.

Like an ant looking up at the mountains.

Some hunters began to spontaneously head towards the Irish mountains.

But their speed is too slow.

In less than an hour, Ryan arrived at the Temple of the Mountains.

Shoggoth stood on the edge of the cliff and waited. When he saw Ryan, he bowed deeply and said, "Lord Ryan."

"Well, how are the preparations going?" Ryan asked after landing on the top of the mountain.

"Everything is ready." Shoggoth smiled.

"..." Ryan paused, thinking of the hunters he met along the way, and asked, "Don't you want to keep some fire?"

"No need." Shoggoth shook his head: "If we lose, everything will end. It doesn't matter whether we keep the fire or not."

"That's fine." Ryan nodded.

Since the person involved had said so, he couldn't say anything else.

Moreover, what Shoggoth said made sense.

If he is defeated, the awakened Red Root will also be aware of the demise of the five chaos species. At that time, "He" will completely control the Monster Hunter world and return to the ninth level with the help of "special materials".

By then, it will be the end of all things.

"Have you chosen the battlefield?" Ryan asked.

"At the northernmost part of the Old World is a glacier land. It is different from the permafrost continent. Although there are monsters living there, they are generally not very threatening and there are few living creatures."

"The origin of the Red Jade once appeared in the world as the Red Sun. Although I don't know its specific attributes, I think it should be related to fire. In the glacial environment, it may have a certain suppressive effect."

"It's the most appropriate place to choose as the main battlefield."

Ryan nodded: "Then let's go."

"Master Ryan, wait."

An old voice was heard, it was the great elder of the Dragon Clan who hurried out of the wooden house.

He held a jar of ceramics in his hand and hurried over to Ryan and Shugoth.

A smile spread across his wrinkled face, like an old tree: "This decisive battle concerns the fate of all living things. I am old and frail, so I can't help much."

"But the Dragon People have an ancient secret technique that can bring some good luck to both of you."

Hearing this, Ryan nodded.

He didn't believe in good luck, but the old man was so kind and he couldn't refuse.

In this way, the great elder of the Dragon Clan used the viscous liquid in the jar to draw a pattern shaped like an Ouroboros with its head and tail connected on the backs of Ryan and Shoggoth's hands.

"Blessings from all spirits, inspiration from life..."

"The mother of all living things will bring you luck..."

After the ceremony, the face of the Dragon Clan's chief elder turned a little paler.

To Ryan's surprise, a prompt on the panel popped up in front of him.

-

[Blessing of the Dragon People]: The pattern drawn with 'ancient blood' is the highest blessing of the Dragon People. With this blessing, everything you do will be lucky, and any unfavorable environment will be able to be corrected positively.

-

Ryan's eyes lit up.

The effect of this thing is better than he imagined.

Suddenly, Ryan remembered the Dragon Pearl.

-

[Dragon Pearl]: The treasure of the Dragon Clan contains incomparable magical power. Those who hold it will receive the blessings of the Dragon Clan.

This Dragonite Pearl has existed for a long time, and its power is deep and restrained. When activated, it requires a huge amount of life force.

Holding this object will increase the level of passive skills related to "Dragon" by one level, which can break through the upper level limit.

(PS: Blue Star, take the blessings of my clan and go to the "place of end and origin" to see the source of everything! We are with you.)
-

This is a gift from the dragon man who lives in seclusion on a mysterious island.

It’s a pity that what Ryan met at that time was not the source of the Red Yao.

But this time, he will not let you down!

"lets go!"

He said so.
