Chapter 221: Chapter 111: Prepare for Battle! The Second World Boss
Time passed, and before long, it was June.
The weather grew increasingly hot.
Zorn was constantly collecting all sorts of materials from two locations: Ogrande City and the Ancient Porcelain Holy City.
He was gathering them to produce the Dragon Blood Potion.
Thanks to his status and authority as Senator Zorn, the potion factories in Ogrande City were now constantly expanding production, securing more partnership and sales channels.
Moreover, the number of Transcendent groups under Zorn’s command was growing.
This allowed Zorn’s Evil Spirit Authority to play an increasingly significant role.
Every day, a massive amount of [Fighting Essence] was generated and subsequently absorbed by Zorn.
After securing a sufficiently high status for the newly established Steam Empire in the Northern Border Region, even after reaching Level Seven, Zorn continued to raise his Sequence Level at an astonishing speed.
Of course, Zorn wasn’t the only one who enjoyed this benefit.
The Middle Rank Level Transcendents from many other factions were also reaping handsome rewards.
...
「Steam Gray Mist Castle.」
After Zorn’s continuous collection of numerous materials and multiple research discussions with the Alchemists regarding the formulation of the Dragon Blood Potion, the Alchemists had finally, just a few days ago, officially developed and concocted a Golden Dragon Blood Potion that met Zorn’s satisfaction.
The properties of each type of Dragon Blood varied, and the materials available in each World were not identical.
Even with the guidance of a Magic Potion formula, concocting a satisfactory Golden Dragon Blood Potion still required a considerable amount of time.
GLUG, GLUG, GLUG...
As he downed a vial of Golden Dragon Blood Potion, Zorn felt a heavy sensation settle in his stomach, and the roar of a Giant Dragon echoed in his ears.
ROAR!
An illusion of a Golden Giant Dragon even appeared faintly before his eyes.
Scattered fragments of memories flashed before his eyes.
Zorn was extremely satisfied as he meticulously savored the effects of the Golden Dragon Blood Potion.
’This effect is quite good.’
’Not only is the level of my bloodline Ability increasing, but its concentration is also slowly rising.’
’By continuously digesting it with this powerful, greedy stomach of mine, I might actually be able to master the immense power of the Golden Giant Dragon.’
’When that time comes, the effects will be outstanding whether I use my Fighting Master class or the Ancient God’s Hand to unleash the Power of the Giant Dragon.’
After downing three more vials of the Golden Dragon Blood Potion, Zorn made his way to the [Divine Kingdom] while digesting the potions.
Upon arriving in the [Divine Kingdom], Zorn could see Vanessa in the distance, engrossed in the Ascetic Practice of her Assassination Secret Techniques.
Vanessa had already reached Level 5.
He estimated that with a bit more time, she would be able to advance to Level Six.
The effects of training within the Divine Kingdom were truly astonishing.
At the core of the [Divine Kingdom], the [Steam Divine Kingdom·Calamity Magic Ring·Holy Witch Curse Tree] had already formally taken root in the Divine Kingdom.
Its entire body was pitch-black, wreathed in the faint, burning light of a Magic Ring. Through its frame, blood-red veins of Energy flowed slowly.
The Tree of the Magic Ring was constructed from "Law Energy."
It was a form of manifested Energy, based on the operation of the World’s laws.
Although it could be destroyed, just as Zorn had previously destroyed the [Jade Magic Ring Tree], completely eradicating it was incredibly difficult.
After all, its very existence was a manifestation of the World’s laws.
A simple "World Magic Ring Tree" was already difficult to destroy, let alone the Tree of the Magic Ring from a special World like the [Holy Relic World], which concealed a great secret.
Thanks to the "Calamity·Boundary Land" that Zorn had established early on using the [Evil Spirit Calamity], the "Tree of Calamity Magic Ring" had now begun to deeply absorb this World’s Origin.
Moreover, Zorn’s goal was very clear.
He wanted the "Tree of Calamity Magic Ring" to propel his Divine Kingdom ever forward, deeper into the heart of the World Origin.
The closer it got to the World Origin, the more it would resonate with the "Cosmic Demon Pool."
In turn, Zorn’s Divine Kingdom would become all the more secure.
’In half a year at most, the Tree of the Magic Ring will be in its initial form. I can then use it to raise the upper limit of my Ancient God Curses.’
’But before that, I need to properly raise all my Skill Levels.’
As these thoughts crossed his mind, Zorn gazed out toward the sea.
The Demon Creatures entrenched on "Saint Nuoya’s Golden Island" would be a crucial resource for the soaring of Zorn’s power.
Within the Divine Kingdom, Zorn studied the profound interactions between various forms of Witchcraft and the Ancient God Curses, all while digesting the Dragon Blood Potion.
Although the Dragon Blood Potion was difficult to digest, its effects were far superior to ordinary potions.
After all, it was a resource that permanently increased one’s attributes; it was only natural for it to be harder to digest.
Just as Zorn was digesting the potion, he suddenly sensed something.
He immediately immersed his consciousness in the "Steam Spirit Realm Tower" and looked toward the front lines on the border of the Steam Realm.
There, he vaguely saw tens of thousands of "Spirit Realm War Undead" appearing on the border of the Otan Grelle Steam Empire.
Immediately after, Zorn could faintly hear the agonized screams and wails of countless soldiers.
Although the many Transcendents stationed there were trying their best to stop the "Spirit Realm War Undead" from slaughtering the soldiers on the front line, their numbers—a mere hundred or so low-level Transcendents—were clearly no match for an entity that excelled at manipulating war.
Only an existence on Zorn’s level could hope to resist tens of thousands of "Spirit Realm War Undead."
Moreover, the slaughtered soldiers were quickly being converted into more War Undead.
