Global Coming: Farming with my sister-in-law in the end times

Chapter 866 Xiao's Transformation, The Legendary Sword Saint's Birthday!
At the same time, as those points of light surged into the divine fire, their constantly changing forms began to gradually solidify.

As if baptized by some supreme power, it quickly calmed down.

After a purification process.

Finally, it transformed into a pure white flame, gently swaying in his palm.

Purification successful! [Thousand-Faced Divine Fire] has been transformed into [Pure Divine Fire]...

...

"call……"

Cao Xing let out a soft breath and muttered to himself, "With this, Mu Xue's breakthrough to the demigod realm should be foolproof."

Just then, the sound of footsteps came from the distant bluestone pavement.

Two figures approached quickly from different directions.

Liu Muxue was dressed in the full set of the [Hymn of Light Battle Armor], and her body radiated an invisible aurora power. Every step she took left a faint fluorescent mark on the stone slab.

Xiao was dressed in light black armor and held a black longsword, making him look like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath!

"Ah Xing, I've arrived."

"My lord, good night."

Cao Xing nodded slightly in response to their greetings.

He first took out the [Fragment of Foreign Swordsmanship] and a [Legendary Heart] from his backpack.

After handing it to Xiao, he said, "Xiao, you have reached the limit of the Hero rank and have the conditions to break through to the Legendary rank."

"Here is a relic that suits you perfectly. Now, break through to the legendary realm."

The swordsman's hands trembled slightly when he saw the two items.

"Legendary... This is a realm I never even dared to dream of..."

"Even in our Star Kingdom, there are only a handful of legendary sword saints."

"I never imagined that I would be able to reach this level in this territory..."

He knelt on one knee, solemnly accepting the item with both hands, his voice slightly hoarse with excitement: "Thank you, Lord!"

Cao Xing patted him on the shoulder: "Get up. I look forward to your successful breakthrough and becoming the first legendary swordsman in the territory."

Xiao nodded emphatically, his eyes gleaming with determination.

Then, he crushed the [Heart of Legend] and began to absorb the pure power contained within it!

A sharp aura emanated from him.

Then, Cao Xing looked at Liu Muxue beside him, took out another 200 divine power fragments from his backpack, along with the purified [Pure Divine Fire], and handed them to her.

He instructed, "Mu Xue, you should prepare to break through now."

"As I said before, first absorb the [Divine Power Fragment], use the divine power to activate your own divinity, and then fuse with the [Divine Fire]."

The female knight took a deep breath and solemnly accepted the two precious items.

She knew the significance of these things; they were enough to drive most of the legendary powerhouses on this continent mad!
"I understand, Ah Xing, I will succeed."

Liu Muxue's voice was equally firm.

Then, she released the [Aurora Divine Power] on her body, directly absorbing 200 fragments of divine power on the spot.

As the fragments of divine power transformed into streams of light and entered her body, her body began to display a dazzling aurora-like color.

On her character panel, her [Divine Power] value reached 2054 points.

Immediately afterwards, following Cao Xing's instructions, she began to try to activate her divinity.

"Om-"

As a flash of light appeared, the divine power value on the panel decreased by 100 points.

Cao Xing held his breath and focused intently on the changes on her control panel.

At that moment, a dazzling aurora suddenly burst forth from her body, as if breaking through some kind of bottleneck, dyeing the entire buffer zone with seven colors.

An aura of majesty and holiness emanated from her...

The feeling was indescribable, as if witnessing an extraordinary being undergoing a transformation, taking the first step towards entering another level.

At the same time, a brand new attribute appeared on Liu Muxue's character panel.

[Divinity: Aurora (1%)]

...

Cao Xing nodded in realization: "I see... Do I need to first consume 100 points of divine power to activate divinity, and then continuously consume divine power to increase the strength of 'divinity'?"

To be honest, this was the first time he had ever witnessed a legendary expert's breakthrough to demigod status so closely.

This can also be of great help to him.

Then, Liu Muxue began to continuously consume divine power to enhance her [divinity].

On her character panel, her divine power value was constantly decreasing.

The aurora power emanating from her body grew increasingly dazzling.

Each decrease in her divine power was accompanied by a subtle change in the aurora-like colors surrounding her.
It gradually transitions from a light blue to a deep violet, and then presents a dreamlike color like the polar night sky.

As 1000 points of divine power were consumed, Liu Muxue's stats changed.

[Divinity: Aurora (51%)]

...

Cao Xing pondered, "One thousand points of divine power have already activated half of my divinity. It seems that what the old patriarch said is about right."

"For a legendary figure to break through to demigod status, it requires at least one or two thousand points of divine power to activate divinity."

As for why Liu Muxue consumed a full two thousand points of divine power, it was naturally because her foundation was too shallow.

From the time she officially broke through to the legendary level until now, it has only been less than half a year.

For other legendary powerhouses, half a year isn't even enough time for them to go out and train once.

Not to mention, he went straight from the beginner legendary level to the maximum level.

Generally speaking, those powerful individuals who are preparing to break through from the legendary realm to the demigod realm have been stuck in the legendary realm for many years.

During that time, they continuously accumulated divine power and enhanced their divinity.

Therefore, the amount of divine power consumed during a breakthrough is much less.

However, under normal circumstances, any high-level legendary figure would need at least 2000 divine power to raise their divinity to 100%.

Cao Xing was already mentally prepared for this number.

At the same time, as her divine attributes increased, Liu Muxue's temperament also underwent subtle changes.

Her already stunning face now possessed an even more divine radiance, and even her breath carried faint aurora particles.

"Huh...huh..."

With each breath she took, the surrounding air rippled with aurora-like waves.

Finally, after three minutes of continuous infusion of divine power, she had consumed a total of 1960 points of divine power!
On the attribute panel, [Divinity] has finally reached 100%!

Liu Muxue opened her eyes, her gaze shimmering with dazzling aurora light: "Ah Xing, my divinity has been activated..."

Cao Xing nodded in satisfaction: "Very good. Next, you will take out the divine fire, release your own divine power, and sense the power fluctuations of the divine fire."

"Once the two forces resonate completely, we can begin to fuse the divine fire."

"Uh-huh."

Liu Muxue nodded slightly, and then began the final steps of her breakthrough.

A white [Pure Divine Fire] appeared in her palm, the flame dancing gracefully in the air, without any impurities.

And from her body, waves of aurora energy surged like the tide.

Before long, it once again enveloped half of the territory in a dreamlike aurora world.

The combat personnel training in the territory watched this scene with astonishment.

Curious, they reached out, wanting to touch the beautiful and sacred aurora...

However, just as their fingertips were about to touch the band of light, the aurora seemed to consciously avoid it, leaving only a string of shimmering points of light in the air.

The group exchanged glances, but dared not disturb them rashly.

I simply stood there, quietly experiencing this sacred moment.

Next, all that's left is to wait patiently.

Cao Xing thought to himself, "Based on my experience with Rosie's breakthrough during the day, this last step is the slowest, and it will take at least ten minutes."

"Therefore, Xiao should have broken through faster than her."

Just as he was thinking this.

Suddenly, I sensed an extremely sharp aura rising up beside me!

"Om-!"

A sword rang out, and a terrifying sword aura burst forth from the Star Kingdom swordsman beside him!
This sword energy materialized and shot directly into the night sky tens of thousands of meters high, cutting a dark crack in the space along its path!

However, this is just the beginning!
Xiao's transformation seemed quite astonishing.

Besides that earth-shattering sword energy, an invisible storm of sword energy swept out from him!
The surrounding space was cut into a dense network of cracks.

Not only that, but Xiao instantly drew the demonic sword from his hand.

"Keng——!"

A crisp sword cry resounded all around, and all the sword energy, as if finding its home, surged towards Xiao's body. The sword energy traced brilliant paths through the air, converging like a meteor shower.

Finally... five tangible sword energies gradually condensed and floated behind him!

These five sword energies exuded an extremely sharp aura, each displaying a different color.

Crimson red like blood, azure blue like the sea, golden yellow like the sun, silvery white like the moon, and pitch black like night.

They rotated slowly, forming a perfect pentagram array behind Xiao.

Even Cao Xing, who was in the midst of it, felt a strong stinging pain, as if his skin was being touched by countless tiny sword tips.

He subconsciously took a half step back and muttered, "Goodness, Xiao's breakthrough this time is quite astonishing!"

Just as he was still in shock, a system notification appeared.

[Your territory member: Xiao has successfully transformed into a legendary creature, his profession 'Star Kingdom Swordsman' has become 'Star Sword Saint', and his level cap has been increased to 150.]

[This breakthrough increases base attributes by 1000%, attack range by 200%, and territory prosperity by 500!]

[Due to a significant increase in attributes, the legendary skill "Selfless Sword Aura" (passive) is activated.]

[Because he comprehended the 'Fragment of a Foreign Swordsmanship Scroll,' he activated the legendary skill: Ten Thousand Swords Return to One!]

[Xiao: The 'Divine Power' feature is now available.]

...

...

"Huh? Two legendary skills were activated at once?"

"And one was passive, while the other was active!"

Cao Xing's eyes widened in surprise, completely unexpected that Xiao's breakthrough would result in such a significant improvement!

Then, he couldn't wait to check the attributes of the two legendary skills that Xiao had just activated.

【Selfless Sword Qi (Passive)】

[Skill Level: Legendary]

Skill Attributes:
1: All sword aura attacks have a 30% 'Sharpness' effect, ignoring 30% of the enemy's defense.

2: There is a 30% chance to trigger 'Sword Aura Burst' when attacking, dealing burst damage of (Attack Power * 245%) to enemies in the path in front (200 meters).

3: Sword aura attack range increased by 100%

(Note: True selflessness is achieved when the mind is free of distractions and the sword is unwavering.)
...

...

【Return of Ten Thousand Swords】

[Skill Level: Legendary]

[Skill Cost: 20 Divine Power Points]

Skill Attributes:
1: Summons five 'Original Swords' that float behind the user. All subsequent attacks have a chance to trigger 1 to 5 sword energies as an assist attack, each dealing (attack power * 66%) damage, lasting for 30 seconds.

2: When the duration ends, release five 'Original Swords' to forcibly imprison the enemy (up to enemies one level higher than yourself), putting them into an 'Absolute Imprisonment' state for at least 3 seconds.

3: During the confinement period, the five 'Original Swords' will unleash 30-50 consecutive sword energy slashes on the enemy. When the 'confinement' ends, all the sword energy will erupt, dealing a finishing blow equal to (Attack Power * 1475% + Agility * 458%) to the enemy!

[Cooling time: 24 hours]

(Note: The five swords hang in the air like cold stars hanging over the fields; their sharpness remains unmoved, yet the world is already silent. When ten thousand swords are drawn together... even the gods should close their eyes. —The Nameless Sword Saint.)
...

"Holy crap, that's strong?"

Cao Xing was amazed.

Xiao's two skills, although from different sources, can be described as an excellent combination.

Passive Skill: [Selfless Sword Qi] can greatly increase the attack damage and range of sword qi.

His active skill, 【Ten Thousand Swords Return to One】, imbues every strike of Xiao's with a sword aura attack effect, which can be said to indirectly increase his damage by an immeasurable amount!
Especially the later "Ten Thousand Swords Return to One" technique, which is not only incredibly powerful, but can also inflict a "forced imprisonment" effect on enemies one level higher.

In other words, if Xiao were to use this skill now, he could even control a demigod for up to three seconds!

what is this concept?

Some legendary skills and demigod skills have a charging time of about 3 seconds.

This period of time was enough for everyone to unleash their ultimate moves.

Sarah had just been equipped with a legendary necklace that could increase the damage of the first attack by 10 times.

If you take advantage of the enemy being controlled and enter stealth mode to unleash [Shadow Thousand Kills - Fatal Slash], there is even a chance to instantly kill a demigod who is of a higher level!
This demonstrates just how much Xiao's breakthrough helped the team.

"Om..."

After a soft clang of the sword, Xiao slowly opened his eyes, which shone like stars, and the sharp sword aura around him subsided.

He approached Cao Xing and respectfully said, "Lord, I have successfully broken through."

Cao Xing nodded approvingly, then glanced at his attribute panel.

Name: Xiao

[Race: Human Race]

[Level: 100 (Legendary Creature)]

[Potential: Dominator]

[Class: Star Sword Saint]

[Divine Power: 0/100 (Regenerates 1 point naturally per day)]

[Detailed attributes: Click to view]

...

...

When Cao Xing saw the long list of skills on Xiao's panel, he couldn't help but smile again.

Clearly, he had learned all the skills in the Sword Saint Manual during this time, except for the legendary skill "Flowing Cloud Annihilation".

Having mastered so many powerful swordsmanship and combat skills, and wielding a legendary weapon.

Even Cao Xing didn't know how strong he was now.

"Not bad, Xiao, you really didn't disappoint me."

Cao Xing's voice became serious: "From now on... you will be the number one sword saint in our territory."

Upon hearing the title 'First Sword Saint', Xiao Qing involuntarily stopped straightening his back, and his hand gripping the sword hilt trembled slightly.

For him, this title was not only an honor, but also the lord's recognition of him, and a responsibility.

"Thank you, Lord. I will practice my swordsmanship even harder from now on to preserve my title as the First Sword Saint!"

"Furthermore, I will not only be the number one sword saint in my territory, but I will also become the strongest sword saint on the entire continent in the future!"

His eyes were filled with determination. This breakthrough in strength had completely transformed him, and he exuded an unprecedented confidence.

With Cao Xing's blessing, Xiao believed that no swordsman of the same level could stop his sharp edge!

Cao Xing's eyes showed admiration: "It's good that you have such a goal, and I believe that one day it will be achieved."

"Now, take this one and unleash your [Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin] and let me see."

After saying that, he took out two [Divine Power Fragments] and handed them over.

This Star Country swordsman—no, he should be called the Star Country Sword Saint.

Xiao accepted the fragments with both hands and understood the lord's meaning.

He placed his right hand on his chest and solemnly replied, "Yes, sir!"

After saying that, Xiao took a deep breath and absorbed the two fragments.

The fragments of divine power instantly dissipated, turning into specks of light that flowed into his body, and his 'divine power value' reached 20 points.

Then, he took a few steps back and raised his hand to grip the hilt of the sword.

"Control the sword with your heart, and let your will take form..."

"Where the sword points, all laws are shattered..."

"The Way of the Sword has no limits; all swords return to their origin!!!"

Om-!
The violent sword energy erupted once again like a raging torrent, sweeping across the entire area in an instant!
Countless sword lights condensed from the void, like rivers flowing into the sea, and converged wildly around Xiao.

In the blink of an eye, five lightsabers of different colors condensed and floated behind him.

Cao Xing was also paying attention to Xiao's changing aura and the system interface.

A moment later, he finally heard that familiar system notification.

[Your territory member: Xiao has used the legendary skill [Ten Thousand Swords Return to One]. All subsequent attacks have a chance to trigger 1-5 sword energies to assist in the attack, lasting for 30 seconds. Affected by the talent [Eternal Power], this skill has become permanent...]
(Note 1: In the permanent state, Xiao can exit and close the [Ten Thousand Swords Return to One] state at any time without consuming divine power.)
(Note 2: The 'Absolute Imprisonment' ability in the Ten Thousand Swords Return to One state can still be used once every 24 hours, and the divine power consumption is now 10 points.)
...

At this moment, a smile involuntarily appeared on Cao Xing's lips.

"As I suspected, the 'sword energy synergy' ability of [Ten Thousand Swords Return to One] can also be enhanced by [Eternal Power], becoming permanent..."

"However, in order to unleash the subsequent strong control abilities, a 24-hour cooldown period is still required."

"The difference is that the divine power consumption has been reduced from 20 points to 10 points."

"Overall, this upgrade is quite good. It not only permanently increases Xiao's damage but also reduces the consumption of divine power."
