From Secret Clan to the Divine Dynasty

Regardless of where the borrower was, the moment the predetermined time arrived, a “repayment” mechanism would be triggered.

And because of such power, the “banker” had acquired an extraordinary trait called “deposit,” which meant the ability to temporarily exceed the maximum limit of his spiritual power, mental power, and life force by up to twice!

However, there was another mechanism known as “bad debts”…

As long as the borrower killed the “banker,” the “repayment” would not be triggered.

“It’s really not easy for her to come back.”

Theo saw that Marzo, who had once been a young girl, had now become very mature.

She seemed to have become more reticent.

Seven years ago, Marzo had disappeared for a few days without reporting the reason; the people of Black Tide discovered her in Silver Moon City, helping the local elves fight against the Lorne citizens, nearly dying there.

She explained the situation afterward, and so Darren had given her a certain punishment according to the rules.

For nearly a century, Marzo had been searching for the sacred object of the Elf Clan, yet, even with the help of Dawn Church, she always came up empty-handed.

Many asked her why the sacred object was so important?

Every time, Marzo would just shake her head, without giving a clear explanation.

Elves had too much of an advantage on the Path of Nature, and with Marzo’s bloodline power being plant manipulation, she successfully reached the 5th Rank “Dragon Rider” on that path.

“Dragon Rider” was the 5th Rank on the Path of Nature, imagined in the Spirit Realm as a youth riding a red dragon, gender indistinguishable, holding a green flute in their hand.

The proportion of increase in the spiritual power and physical fitness of the “Dragon Rider” was 40 to 60.

An Extraordinary being who reached the “Dragon Rider” tier could acquire two passive extraordinary traits, namely “Dragon Affinity” and “King of Riding.”

The former was easy to understand: all dragon tribe members, dragon descendants, and any race related to dragons would spontaneously favor the “Dragon Rider.”

As for the latter extraordinary trait, “King of Riding,” meant that the “Dragon Rider’s” equestrian skills reached an extraordinary level, enabling them to ride any theoretically rideable creature.

Just how formidable the “Dragon Rider” tier was, its limits were vast…

If one could find a powerful enough, even an upper-tier Monarch level ancient giant dragon, and become a true master of dragon taming, that would be explosively powerful!

But theoretically, it was also possible to never encounter a dragon in one’s lifetime, hence only being able to ride substitutes like cows or horses, possibly making the “Dragon Rider” the weakest among all the 5th Ranks on the God Pantheon stairway.

When Marzo returned, she didn’t ride a real giant dragon but a variant of a Thunderhawk with dragon blood, possessing close to Monarch-level lightning power, definitely not weak.

Yeager chuckled and said, “It’s really no small feat, us old folks to meet again, for the first time in decades.”

As Dawn Church’s influence spread far and wide, they would often leave Nasir and even Cyart, traveling across the continent for the Fischer family and the great Lord of the Lost, rarely having the chance to meet each other.

Yeager had not been in Nasir, nor in the Eastern Continent, for the last few decades but had gone overseas to fight in many Lorne colonies.

His frontline performance had satisfied the hunger of the Path of Conquest.

Today, Yeager still reached the 6th Rank “Beyond Blade” on the Path of Conquest.

The Beyond Blade saw a distribution of spiritual power and physical fitness improvements at 30 to 70, acquiring only one extraordinary power called “Transcendence Strike.”

Simply put, it could temporarily consume most of the spiritual power to charge for a few seconds, significantly increasing the speed and power of the next strike!

Plain but very practical, the “Transcendence Strike” greatly enhanced the damage, which in extreme cases could multiply severalfold!

Yeager had often used “Transcendence Strike” in his overseas battles.

He had even tried consuming most of his spiritual power to use “Transcendence Strike” along with various other enhancements from the Path of Conquest to instantly kill an unguarded Monarch Lower Level Spellcaster.

With his formidable power and ruthless nature, he had made quite a name for himself overseas, many calling him “the Butcher of Dawn Church.”

Colin asked, “It’s a pity Archibald isn’t here, why isn’t he?”

Moore shook his head and said, “Don’t you know? His great-granddaughter is being born, so he took a leave of absence, saying he won’t come for now and will be late.”

To this day, Archibald had reached the 5th Rank “Sandstorm Commander” on the Path of Calamity.

He had been the leader of the Fischer family’s military forces for many years, yet to enhance his capability on the Path of Calamity, his already irritable mood had increased, which also led him to stay away from his wife and children for fear of harming them.

Archibald had always been Chris’s best friend, even after Vanessa passed away, the mysterious Chris still occasionally met Archibald alone… all he needed to do was cry and shout Chris’s name to the sky, and within three days, Chris would definitely come.

The “Sandstorm Commander” in the Spirit Realm appeared as a yellow sandstorm.

The proportion of increase in spiritual power and physical fitness was 60 to 40, providing the Extraordinary who reached “Sandstorm Commander” the passive trait of controlling sand without consumption, and a power to consume spiritual power to absorb moisture at close range.
