381 Come Quick, Heavenly Divine Realm
Countless people in the Holy Light City were discussing the Nicholas family clan enthusiastically. Previously, when they caused such a huge commotion, the Nicholas family clan destroyed the Beast Sect in just a few days. Now that the Sacred Mist Ferry and the Five-Color Peacock had joined forces… Which faction had gone against the Nicholas family? They were most likely going to be annihilated also.
For a moment, all kinds of news filled the sky. It was not just the Holy Light City. The entire Ferrero region and even the entire Sebastian Kingdom were paying attention…
However, everyone soon sensed that the Nicholas family was not on a trip to exterminate a sect. They had flown into the Calamity Mountain Range! The commotion they had caused from being in the Calamity Mountain Range for several months had naturally been seen by everyone. However, no one knew the details. Many people guessed that the Nicholas family might be searching for something. Moreover, everyone guessed that the thing they had been searching for so long must be a treasure. Now that so many people had been mobilized, could it be that they had already found the treasure?
… .
The sun set and rose. Another day had passed.
Zoro and Anthony had just flown out of the Calamity Mountain Range on a small ferry when they met Norton and the others, who had rushed over to assist. Zoro and Anthony were not surprised to learn that it was the Old Ancestor who had informed them about the Magic Stone Mine in advance and given instructions. The two sides met up. Anthony was escorted back to the family clan by two family retainers, while Zoro returned to the depths of the Calamity Mountain Range with the others.
Escorted by the level-7 Five-Color Peacock, the Sacred Mist Ferry rushed to the Magic Stone Mine area. Everyone from the Nicholas family at the mine area had gathered.
There were four Divine Magi, a level-7 spirit beast, and more than 70 experts higher than level-5 Great Archmagi. Most of these 70-odd people were retainers. Almost all the top combat strength of the Nicholas family clan was here. Such a powerful battle formation had not even been used to destroy the Beast Sect previously.
After they had gathered, a series of arrangements were made in an orderly manner. Everyone went about their duties. There were those who scattered around to survey the Magic Stone Mine, and also those who were stationed at the various important spots of the mine. Between the spots, a communication network was formed. They would first figure out the situation of the mine, then the mining of the Magic Stone Mine would be smoother. The follow-up personnel for the mining of the Magic Stone Mine would not take long to arrive. Of course, before mining, they would still have to deal with the Gale Wind Island.
… .
In the sea of clouds, on a certain high mountain peak, Feng Da looked into the distance and saw the commotion caused by the first group of Nicholas family members rushing over. His eyes widened in shock and disbelief.
“…Impossible! Why are they already here?!”
What was going on… The messenger he had sent had probably not left the Calamity Mountain Range yet, but the large group of reinforcements sent by the Nicholas family had already arrived!!
The group of Great Archmagi standing behind all had grave expressions. Someone asked, “Master, should we…”
Feng Da thought for a moment and did not plan to do anything. “There’s no need. Let them come first. It’s not an issue that they occupy it for a few days first.”
They had long expected the Nicholas family to arrive here first. Although they did not know why the other party was so fast, from the looks of it, the Nicholas family clearly wanted to fight with Gale Wind Island for the Magic Stone Mine.
If the ten plus of them were to go over and do something now, they would only be besieged. This was a different time. Feng Da believed that when the reinforcements from the Gale Wind Island arrived, the other party would definitely scramble from this place!
… .
In the core area of the Magic Stone Mine, in the ruins of the nest of the Demonic Devouring Insects, Dick brought Norton and the others to see the huge queen worm egg of the Demonic Devouring Insects. Then, Zoro set up several magic formations around the huge egg to protect and conceal the egg. After that, he also set up many magic formations in the mine area to prepare for the battle for the mine that would take place soon. Since his family had occupied this place first, he naturally had to take full advantage before the battle.
The sun set and two days passed.
[Ding! The descendants have completed the ancestral worship activity by the entire clan. Received a monthly Special Gift Bag.]
[This Special Gift Bag can be used in the store.]
Early in the morning, Romo heard the System notifications. He knew that although his descendants were not paying respect to their ancestors in the ancestral land, they were still devoutly paying their respects.
[The Special Gift Bag has been used…]
[Random Earth-tier Magic Manual. Special Discount: 10,000 Faith Points.]
[Hundredfold Cultivation Speed Talisman. Special Discount: 2,000 Faith Points.]
[Family Clan Spirit Beast Nurture Talisman. Special Discount: 10,000 Faith Points.]
[Divine Realm Enlightenment Talisman. Special Discount: One million Faith Points.]
“Eh?!” Romo had originally opened it casually. After scanning through the exchange list, he was slightly stunned. Thereafter, he was pleasantly surprised!!
Every month, the entire clan would receive a Special Gift Bag from paying respects to their ancestors. It had been a long time since a good tool had appeared. He had not held much hope. Unexpectedly, this time, there was a huge surprise: for the first time, a System tool worth 1,000,000 Faith Points had appeared in the Special Gift Bag!!
[Divine Realm Enlightenment Talisman: When the System’s host is at a bottleneck of the Divine Realm, using this talisman will allow him to enter the enlightenment period immediately, greatly increasing the probability of a breakthrough.]
Previously, when Romo was at the realm equivalent to a top Great Archmage, he had obtained a Realm Enlightenment Talisman, and then he broke through to the realm of the Divine Mage. Now that he was at a great bottleneck of the Divine Mage realm, he had also obtained a Realm Enlightenment Talisman that could be used immediately. This talisman had come at the right time! Could it be that the System had sensed that his realm breakthrough speed was too slow, so it made a provision for it in the Special Gift Bag?
He had already used the power of faith to charge at the bottleneck, but the efficiency was indeed a little low. With this Enlightenment Talisman, he should be able to speed up! He bought the last three tools at a special price and used the Divine Realm Enlightenment Talisman directly.
[The Divine Realm Enlightenment Talisman has been used…]
As the System notification sounded, Romo felt his soul tremble gently. Countless lights flashed in his consciousness, and some energy seemed to be rubbing against the depths of his soul. The bottleneck of his realm suddenly loosened unprecedentedly!
An opportunity to break through!!
Romo was secretly pleasantly surprised. He immediately seized this rare opportunity to break through the bottleneck of his realm!
[100,000 Faith Points have been used…]
[500,000 Faith Points have been used…]
[One million Faith Points have been used…]
[… Use…]
The System notifications sounded continuously, but Romo ignored them all. The immense power of faith condensed from a large number of Faith Points was trying to break through the bottleneck of the realm. The bottleneck became more and more relaxed, and then… it gradually broke!!
The ancestral hall of the Nicholas family clan seemed to be filled with a powerful invisible energy. It was as if energy had rushed out crazily from an invisible vortex and poured crazily into Romo’s Sacred Spirit tablet, causing it to tremble slightly.
Above the Nicholas family clan, 10,000… 1,000,000… 100,000,000 feet, in the sky. In the vast and chaotic wind, thousands of miles of void suddenly trembled violently. It was as if even the sky had cracked a little, and the shadow of a broken staircase gradually appeared. However, in a short while, the illusory stone staircase trembled and disappeared.
At the same time, in the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family, the last bottleneck had completely shattered. Romo had finally broken through the Divine Mage realm, advanced and became a Heavenly Divine Mage!!
[Ding! The host’s magical power level has increased to level-1 of the Heavenly Divine Realm.]
The cold and inorganic System notifications sounded, responding to the new Heavenly Divine Mage realm. Usually, when a Mage advanced to the Heavenly Divine Realm, it would trigger a phenomenon that could be sensed from 500,000 kilometers away. However, Romo had the System concealing his breakthrough. His breakthrough was quiet, and even the people in the family palace did not sense it.
