Chapter 72 Breaking Limits, Night Raid

Put aside your doubts about the dream world for now; your immediate goal is to become Viscount Noble.

Only Viscount Noble possesses the complete breathing technique and his family's heirloom.

It was only after learning this that Dylan wanted to become Viscount Noble.

"This body lacks the aptitude of a wizard and is too old to follow the wizarding path; it can only rely on the power of the earth-riding path."

"The only anomaly is that the small part of my true spirit that came to the Dream Demon World carried a small portion of the true spirit runes."

Russell attempted to communicate with the original being in the wizarding world through the connection between the True Spirit Runes.

Unfortunately, he failed.

The incomplete True Spirit Rune, carrying his True Spirit, had already reached its limit in escaping the Dream Demon World.

Still want to communicate with the Wizarding World?

You're just overthinking it.

"Spells cannot be cast, and pure spiritual power, limited by Dylan's weak soul, cannot play a significant role."

"What I need to do now is to quickly 'transform' Dylan's soul, which has lost its true spirit and has begun to die."

"Become a soul that is self-centered!"

"In this way, the terms 'Tracing the Origin - The Sacred Soul' can take effect and provide a boost to myself," Russell said, feeling his weakened soul.

Having grown accustomed to being strong, suddenly feeling so weak is quite disorienting.

"Hmm? The attribute panel has also changed—right, it's time for the entries I left behind to come in handy."

Russell glanced at the glossary panel as usual, and then made some changes to the glossary sequence.

[Name]: Russell Insec [Occupation]: Knight Rank: Knight Tier 3 (21%)

【Skill】:

Noble breathing method (45%)

Basic swordsmanship (100%)

Noble swordsmanship (23%)

[Entry Sequence]:

First Sequence Core Attribute: [Exceptional Stamina (Rare): Stamina +180%, Resilience +10%]

Branch Attributes: ① None ② None ③ None Second Sequence · Core Attribute: 【Extraordinary Power (Rare): Strength +180%, Resilience +10%】

Branch affixes: ① None ② None ③ None Third Sequence · Core affix: 【Exceptional Speed ​​(Rare): Speed ​​+180%, Resilience +10%】

Branch entry: ① The absence of Russell is somewhat awkward.

He kept only four purple rare entries, which were useless for the wizarding path.

Furthermore, these four terms are not compatible with his other terms, so they cannot be attached to branch terms.

Unfortunately, there were already few entries, and Russell had to remove the even more useless "extraordinary spirit".

"It's just for temporary use. Once I've completely transformed my soul, I can switch back."

"Spells cannot be used in this world, but pure spiritual power remains unaffected."

Russell felt his body strengthened, and all his previous weakness vanished!

He is currently only a Tier 3 Rider, but with the bonus of three rare purple attributes, he is capable of fighting even Viscount Vincent.

Even defeat it!

Moreover, Russell was confident he could withstand even a sixth-tier knight in person.

After all, even fifth or sixth-tier knights wouldn't dare say that their strength, speed, and stamina are all more than three times that of a third-tier knight!

"For a third-tier knight to break through to the fourth tier, he needs to break the limits of the human body. In the wizarding world, this is what it means to advance from a high-level knight to a great knight."

"The latter involves forcibly advancing by absorbing the elements of heaven and earth, while the former is relatively gentler, so failure does not necessarily lead to death."

"If you fail to break through, you'll still lose half your life."

"If a family is extremely wealthy, they might be able to purchase various rare medicinal herbs to prolong life and gradually recover."

"There might be a possibility of a second breakthrough."

"But if the family has no money—while they might not die on the spot, they will most likely be disabled for life, or even not live for many years."

"Even if you manage to advance to the fourth rank of knight by sheer luck, you'll still have to break your physical limits to reach the fifth and sixth ranks, a total of three limit-breaking attempts!"

"Only a sixth-tier knight who has broken through the limit three times can cultivate battle qi using breathing techniques."

"A knight with battle aura can easily deal with the siege of more than a dozen sixth-tier knights and kill them one by one."

"On the battlefield, he is an invincible warrior, capable of taking on a thousand men single-handedly!"

Russell's breathing gradually became peculiar, each breath sounding as if it were thunderous.

Noble breathing method.

He's breaking through to the fourth rank!

"A normal third-tier knight lacks the confidence to break through to fourth-tier simply because they are not strong enough!"

"I have three rare purple stat bonuses: Strength, Speed, and Stamina are all increased to 280% of their original values!"

"Although I've only reached 'Tier 3 (21%)' at the Tier 3 Knight level, with the 2.8x bonus, 'If I can't break through, who can?'"

Russell suddenly burst into laughter, his muscles bulging out before shrinking back down.

His clothes were completely soaked, overflowing with sweat, but it was immediately evaporated by his terrifying body temperature!

He has undergone a terrifying transformation from the inside out, including his blood, lungs, bones, and muscles!

"The human body reaches its limit and cannot improve further, but it can break through that limit!"

"Only after breaking through the limits three times can the body bear the battle qi."

"Knights from the seventh to the ninth rank actually have similar physical attributes; the difference lies in their level of battle aura cultivation?"

Russell briefly assessed his body and decided to break through the second limit in one go and advance to the fifth rank!

But reason was urging him to calm Russell down.

"My body has become stronger due to the impact of pushing my limits, but it has also accumulated some hidden injuries, so I need to rest for a while."

"Let's take a break first, and also take care of some trivial matters."

"For example, this body's dear brother, Dio."

Russell let out a long sigh of relief, and his body gradually cooled down.

He pushed open the door and walked out of the room, down the castle corridor, and into the courtyard.

The moonlight was bright and clear in the sky, and a gentle breeze was blowing, making it a very pleasant place.

"Such a beautiful view! Tonight isn't a dark and stormy night for murder! It's not a good time to make a move."

Russell stretched. "However, I can make an exception for this. Come out."

His soul was weaker than ever before, but his body was stronger than ever before!

Even a high-level bloodline rider can't compare to a fourth-level rider who has just broken through the limit and has a 280% bonus to all three attributes and is looking for something to vent his frustration!

"Not coming out? Then I'll—...hmm?"

Russell instinctively reached for his sword at his waist, then remembered that he hadn't brought it with him.

He recalled his skills.

"Basic Swordsmanship (100%)"

"Noble Swordsmanship (23%)"

1

It can be said that all his strength lies in his swordsmanship.

"Never mind, it's about the same."

Russell shook his head, then suddenly lightly touched the ground with his feet, and shot out like an arrow!

Almost instantly, he slipped into the shadows of the nearby castle and placed his hand on the head of a mysterious man dressed in black and wearing a mask.

The mysterious man's eyes revealed a look of terror.

He's a third-tier knight!

As a result, Russell's movements were barely visible.

How is that possible!

"Smack."

A somewhat sluggish, low, and sticky voice rang out.

Russell crushed the other man's head.
