Master Changsheng

Chapter 413 Chapter 410: Origin of the Insect World

【Mist Crystal: A special energy crystal interwoven with special energies, which can be used to upgrade spell levels.】

Note: Spells exceeding Lv220 are unusable.

Not long ago, Ankai was still pondering what the "essence of the gods" was.

That was a system notification, indicating the items needed to upgrade the spell level to [Lv211].

Never thought.

The [Divine Essence] was not found, but the [Mist Crystal] was discovered ahead of time.

"Is this what they call a 'after the darkest hour comes the dawn'?"

"It feels pretty good."

Ankai liked this unexpected surprise.

He prefers unexpected surprises to anticipated ones.

Just like Chris often told him to come back to the castle for dinner, where there would be a big meal.

When Ankai returned, Chris was already dressed in black stockings and leading a group of elven maids waiting for him.

This was another unexpected delight besides the delicious food.

After playing with the [Mist Crystal] for a while and sensing the rich energy contained within it, An Kai didn't hesitate much before choosing to use it along with the [God-level Low-grade Skill Point] to upgrade his spell level.

This time it's not about improving [Fireball].

The reason I prioritized upgrading [Fireball] last time was because of the external threat posed by the imposing figure.

That was also the only time Ankai was the first to upgrade [Fireball].

At this moment, he was in the [Divine Court Academy: World of Valor], surrounded by ocean vortexes driven by mist.

The imposing figure was so frightened by An Kai that he hid and dared not show his face.

Qu Guang's strength is no match for An Kai's.

There are no major worries ahead.

There will be no major problems afterward.

Ankai decided to prioritize improving his foundational spell, Meditation, just like before!

Do it as soon as you think of it.

A thought crossed my mind.

[Mist Crystal] has disappeared.

Along with Ankai's accumulated [1600 million low-grade divine skill points], they also disappeared.

Instantly, a dense energy enveloped Ankai.

As his thoughts shifted, An Kai seemed to see a colossal giant, sitting cross-legged between heaven and earth, breathing rhythmically according to his meditation technique.

The supreme law is contained in every breath.

Dense magical elements surrounded the giant, coalescing into elemental dragons.

The dragon's roar echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

In an instant!

The giant moved!

It wasn't a figure that moved.

Instead, it was the giant's method of breathing in meditation that changed.

It became a way that was both familiar and unfamiliar to Ankai.

Now!

Witnessing the giant's breathing firsthand, Ankai had a sudden flash of inspiration!

The meditation technique that had been troubling him suddenly became clear!

At this moment, the giant's figure gradually dimmed.

It was about to dissipate.

In his dying moments, the giant suddenly looked at Ankai, and through his blurred vision, Ankai made out the giant's face.

"It's me!"

boom!

A muffled, thunderous explosion resounded within Yu Ankai's body!

Then, an invisible wave, beyond Ankai's control, rapidly spread out!

The three people who had gathered together—Lei, the enormous vertical-eyed True Spirit, and Nurnexius—were instantly blown away.

The three of them were thrown backward out of control, without even a chance to react.

Not just the three of them, but everything around An Kai.

Seawater, the remains of marine mammals, and other debris were all carried away by the rapidly spreading invisible waves.

In the blink of an eye, a vacuum zone centered on Ankai appeared.

The whirlpool in the seawater disappeared.

There was only one smooth piece of land.

Within the vacuum zone, there was a unique magical element belonging to Ankai.

"Is this the new effect?"

"It feels pretty good."

An Kai muttered to himself, looked around, and was quite satisfied with the masterpiece he had created.

The seawater receded, leaving only a smooth and barren piece of land.

This is the first effect brought about by advancing the [Meditation] spell level to [Lv211]!

--only!

When Ankai exists in a space, only Ankai's magical energy can exist in that space.

The remaining energy and living beings will be forcibly expelled!

It can be described as a rather domineering effect.

It has a built-in clearing effect.

The effect exceeded Ankai's expectations on the first use.

"It's totally worth it!"

"No wonder this improvement is different from the past."

After a moment of reflection, An Kai finally began to review his system notifications.

He squinted, a satisfied look on his face, as he checked the system notifications.

The seawater, dispersed by Ankai's [Meditation: Unique], then dragged its heavy steps, like a severely injured old man, and staggered toward Ankai's position.

Before they could even get close, they were drawn by the mist, forming a new vacuum vortex centered on An Kai's figure.

[Consumes 1 Mist Crystal and 1600 million Divine-grade Low-grade Skill Points; Meditation Spell Level +1].

[Meditation Lv210] upgraded to [Meditation Lv211].

[Divine Body Lv3] upgraded to [Divine Body Lv4].

[God Lord Lv3] upgraded to [God Lord Lv4].

As always.

"When one attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven." As meditation improves, it also elevates the divine master and the divine body.

This is what the system displays.

There are also some that the system did not display.

An Kai's [Domain] has finally entered the sixth level!

At this point, Ankai's [Domain] surpassed the upper limit of [Domain] recorded by the "Teacher".

The sixth level of the domain is divided into four stages.

Beginner, minor success, major success, perfection.

An Kai, now, has mastered the sixth level of the [initial stage].

Despite being just a "first time," the results far exceeded An Kai's expectations.

He also came to understand a problem through sensing this improvement in the [domain].

Why is there no record of any "domain" above the "fifth domain" between either "teachers" or deities?

There is only one reason.

The effect is terrifying!

The Sixth Realm has only one core effect: Manifestation!

That's right, it's the true manifestation of the [domain].

Instead of being projected and manifested as before.

Although it was only the initial stage of the sixth level of the domain, it allowed Ankai to manifest the basic environment of the domain.

If Ankai wanted, he could make the materialized [domain] space replace the previous space by appearing directly in the current world.

It will not have any impact on the current world.

Within the [domain], An Kai's strength is doubled.

If An Kai possesses a manifested domain, his strength will experience an explosive increase!

As the [Domain] continues to evolve, it is not impossible that everything in Ankai's [Domain] will eventually manifest.

Thinking about what would happen in the future, An Kai suddenly paused.

"Why does it feel so much like the insect world?"

"Could those insect realms be manifestations of the [Domain]?"

An Kai's guess was correct; part of the predecessor of the Insect Realm was evolved from powerful beings through the [Domain].

After powerful beings die, their domains transform into unclaimed insect realms, which then depend on the divine realm for survival.

This is why the Insect Realm, despite being dependent on the God Realm, is theoretically a subordinate realm.

This is the reason why they can freely establish connections with this superior being in the divine realm.

Because these insect realms are part of the divine realm, there are no superiors or inferiors.

This is only one part of the evolution of the insect world; the other part of the insect world's formation is natural.

However, they also share a common characteristic.

It evolved from the realm of gods.

They are also part of the divine realm.

The divine realm is like a mother who asks for nothing in return, doing everything she can to nurture new life. Once life has the ability to protect itself, the divine realm will let go and allow them to develop freely.

Although they let go, the divine realm did not sever its connection with them.

Like a mother longing for her wandering son to return home, clinging to this last thread of connection, she provides the direction home for her departing son.

The improvements to [Meditation] and [Domain] are the two biggest changes brought about by Ankai's recent upgrade of the [Meditation] spell level.

One that gave him something unique.

One that allowed his domain to advance to the legendary sixth level!

This is a significant improvement compared to the other two.

The upgrades to [Divine Lord Lv4] and [Divine Body Lv4] seem somewhat lackluster.

The effect of 【God Lord Lv4】is that the true spirit of magic within Ankai's 【Domain】 is completely condensed and formed.

They transformed into 100 magical spirits, forming Ankai's personal guard.

There are a total of 100 people, and they all possess some of Ankai's magical abilities.

However, his strength is only half that of Ankai.

This is somewhat of a double-edged sword for Ankai.

It's no exaggeration to say that An Kai could destroy 100 people with half their strength using magic and true spirit techniques in the blink of an eye.

But this is relative.

Half of Ankai's strength, if placed in the outside world, would be comparable to a top-tier existence among [Third-Rank Gods] and [Fourth-Rank Gods].

In the current divine realm, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of the [Divine Court Academy], these 100 guards exclusively belonging to Ankai would be able to roam freely throughout the divine realm.

unfortunately

The person who owns all of this is Ankai.

Therefore, even though it was a 100-person guard group, or a guard group formed by magical spirits, it seemed somewhat useless to An Kai.

The [God Lord Lv4] title is somewhat useless to An Kai.

The same applies to [Divine Body Lv4].

However, Ankai believes that compared to [Divine Lord Lv4], [Divine Body Lv4] is still somewhat useful.

The effect of [Divine Body Lv4] is a continuation of [Divine Body Lv3], and unlike [Divine Lord Lv4], there is no huge difference between the effects of [Divine Lord Lv3].

[God Lord Lv3] only allows the true spirit of magic within the [Domain] to reach its peak, while [God Lord Lv4] is a one-step process, forming a hundred-person guard of true spirit magic.

The effect of 【Divine Body Lv3】is to create a pressure that will suppress those whose four attributes are inferior to Ankai's.

This time, along with [Meditation], [Divine Body] has been upgraded to [Lv4], which only further enhances the [Intimidation] effect.

Ankai found it effective because of the new changes brought about by the [Intimidation].

This evolution of [Pressure] has resulted in a unique pressure system belonging to Ankai.

Ankai is a unique existence in the entire God Realm, Insect Realm, and Abyss.

Furthermore, the oppressive aura was accompanied by Ankai's own magical abilities and characteristics of a benevolent family.

For example, Wei Ya is as black as ink.

This overwhelming power is the kind of strength that only the top 100 gods on the [Gods Ranking] possess.

Possessing a unique aura, it signifies a postcard that ranks among the top 100 of the [Divine Ranking].

Just like those Forbes billionaires in Ankai's previous life, each of their business cards was unique, designed by a personal designer.

And what about ordinary wealthy people?

Most people choose the standard layout of business cards that are already circulating in the market and do not spend a lot of money to design their own unique business cards.

Now, in its evolved form, the pitch-black aura of oppression is Ankai's unique "calling card."

This is also one of Ankai's public branding features. Therefore, Ankai believes that the [Divine Body Lv4] is more effective than the [Divine Lord Lv4].

As for the rest, the attribute points gained from upgrading the [Divine Body] and [Divine Lord] are not worth mentioning.

This is the change brought about by Ankai's promotion.

When Lei and the enormous vertical-eyed True Spirit returned, they happened to encounter An Kai concluding his current advancement.

The two sensed that An Kai had changed.

It was as if a pitch-black giant enveloped the heavens and the earth, and they were as insignificant as ants in front of this pitch-black giant.

Regardless of strength or physique.

A feeling of utter despair and helplessness welled up inside me.

Fear gripped my mind.

Fortunately, Ankai withdrew the pressure.

Otherwise.

With sheer force, they could be killed without them even realizing it.

Only Nurnexus was not surprised at all.

I am not at all surprised by An Kai's tremendous increase in strength.

In Nurnexus's opinion, this is the demeanor a leader should have!

The realization leads to improvement.

A smile appeared on An Kai's face.

"【Mist Crystal】is a good thing."

An Kai sensed the speed at which the surrounding mist and seawater merged; he hadn't paid attention before, but now he felt it was incredibly slow.

He prepared to accelerate the merging of the seawater and the mist.

[Meditation] This advancement has brought about such significant changes.

What about the other three spells?

Ankai believed that with each major advancement in spell level, his spells would bring about tremendous new changes!

Do it when you think of it.

Ankai's method this time requires [Meditation: Uniqueness].

He pressed his hand firmly against the seawater and continuously channeled magical elements into it.

The magical elements drift with the current and disperse rapidly along with the seawater.

When the time is right, Ankai will use [Meditation: Unique].

At that time, these scattered magical elements will transform into a series of pivot points.

Drive away everything around you!

All it takes is a little special arrangement.

This would transform the direction of the dispersal into a straight line heading towards Ankai.

[Meditation: The One] The moment it is activated is the moment a large amount of seawater surges towards Ankai.

The magical elements flowed continuously into the seawater through Ankai's palm.

Under Ankai's control, the magical elements quickly scattered in all directions!

[Divine Court Academy: World of Valor], in the opposite direction from where Ankai is.

This is the area for light collection activities.

Heeding the advice of the imposing figure, he remained in the current area, silently waiting for the figure to recover and lead him to the [Fourth Level of the Divine Court].

Qu Guang had already learned a piece of information from the towering figure.

That guy with the huge vertical eye is dead!

He died at the hands of his rival, Will Bucklin!

It was also the death of the enormous, vertically-eyed figure, a constant reminder to take the light and not to overstep the boundaries.

He barely did any of the [Divine Court Academy: World of Valor] missions.

After being alerted by the imposing figure, he hid.

The experience from the Divine Court Academy that the God of Law had previously imparted to him failed for the first time.

Or perhaps it's a case of taking light but not wanting to use it.

The choice between death and survival couldn't be easier.

Imitating the towering figure, they hid in the sea.

Every minute, every second.

Getting light is a torment for everyone.
