Chapter 1669: Chapter 542: The Higher You Go, The Colder It Gets (Part 2)

"Go on, keep talking," Elise held onto Old Liu’s arm, stopping him from speaking.

"Boss, didn’t you say earlier that during your ultimate ascension in the Demon World, you suffered a fierce strike from the Ninefold Lightning?"

"That’s right, I just found it hilarious. It’s said that the Demon World never has lightning strikes, only dry thunder, but there it was, an actual lightning strike! Unfortunately, those nine bolts of lightning were too weak, even the lightning released by our Golden Dwarf mages’ pinky fingers was more powerful. Their static reaction was quite exaggerated, though; everyone’s hair turned into sky-high pigtails." Liu Zhenhan thought the more he thought about it, the funnier it got. He mentioned it just as a peculiar story, otherwise, he wouldn’t have bothered to talk about it.

"Do you know, the more powerful the lightning passing through the air, the greater the static reaction? That’s electromagnetic resonance!" Elise said.

"The Demon World has never had lightning, only dry thunder. Kaka’s ’Thunder Hidden Pearl’ was only useful upon coming to the Aegean! Maybe the Demon World’s sky naturally contains resistive elements. The descent of nine flashes of lightning didn’t even singe my hairs; this is proof." Liu Zhenhan shrugged as if to say it wasn’t his problem.

"But on our Silk Continent, mages as powerful as you, once reaching the pinnacle, will be treated to nine bolts of lightning striking their heads! In our spell system on the Silk Continent, there’s a professional term for it, ’Transcendence’! Successfully resisting the nine bolts and achieving ’Transcendence,’ the Great Magicians can ascend to the sky, leaving the mortal world." Yitiao sneered, "In other words, those Great Magicians become gods from then on!"

"When you Great Magicians reach the Saint Emperor level, do you have Blood Servants?" Liu Zhenhan furrowed his brows.

"No! But during their ascension, they are indeed greeted by fairies." Yitiao stated, "Don’t think I’m talking nonsense. I’ve been roaming human society on the Silk Continent for over a thousand years!"

"Isn’t that settled then? I had Blood Servants at the Saint Emperor level, or rather, fairies." Liu Zhenhan laughed heartily.

"Your ’Strength Pattern Shield’ is different from any magical shield, using a tattoo as a shield is unique to Blood Magic!" Elise sneered, "So, it’s completely normal for you to have Blood Servants at the Saint Emperor level."

"The basic laws of Elemental Power are the same everywhere." Yitiao patted Old Liu on the shoulder, "Congratulations boss, you successfully achieved ’Transcendence’!"

"Then why haven’t I ascended in plain daylight to become a deity?" Liu Zhenhan felt a chill all over after Yitiao and Boss Elise talked about this ----------- Could it be that I withstood the Ninefold Lightning purely because of the high resistance of the special space in the Demon World, not because of my resistance abilities?

What if it were in the Aegean?

Liu Zhenhan didn’t dare to think further. He wasn’t arrogant enough to take on Thunderbolt Lightning directly; those Thunderbolt Columns falling from the sky weren’t your average Magic Lightning!

"That’s what I find most bizarre! My adoptive father, he was a Great Magician as well, and he would never lie to me. He said that out of a thousand Great Magicians who could reach the level of ’Transcendence’, fewer than three would survive the Ninefold Lightning and successfully achieve Transcendence!" Yitiao looked solemnly at the boss, "So, I recommend Guoguo to temporarily stop absorbing Blood Magic Power!"

"Guoguo is only at the Saint Level, two levels away from the Saint Emperor level!" Liu Zhenhan clicked his tongue and looked at Elise, "My Elemental Conductor, do you have anything else to say?"

"I don’t feel good about this!" The Aegean Flower rubbed her temples and looked up, "Your Blood Magic, does it still have an Ultimate Shield? Once activated, all physical and magical attacks are nullified, but you can’t get out either."

"Nonsense! I told you earlier, why ask this question again?" Liu Zhenhan remembered a popular novel from the Aegean Continent, "Siege", and realized that the ultimate shield in Blood Magic was precisely like it, once in, no one could come out, and no one outside could go in.

This kind of shield didn’t match Old Liu’s personality, so unless he had no choice, he wouldn’t use it.

"Once magic reaches its peak, magic power can counteract Earth’s gravity, and flying purely by magical power is a hallmark of a Super Great Magician." Elise asked Old Liu, "Am I right?"

"Are you mocking me deliberately? Magic Tutors can fly using magic power alone; what mage doesn’t know that?" Liu Zhenhan’s face turned red. Though he was three ranks higher than a Magic Tutor, he still needed to rely on ’Starry Sky Reflection Wings’ to fly, which was quite embarrassing.

"I’m not mocking you; I’m just telling you a fact! Since Magic Tutors can use magic power to counteract Earth’s gravity and fly, why should it be difficult for you at the Saint Emperor level to achieve this?" Elise smiled bitterly, "If my judgment as the Floral Xifu on Elemental Power is correct, I think once your Ultimate Blood Magic Shield is activated, the strong repulsive force could push you into the cosmos! Your shield is the true Ultimate Shield, meant to repel all forces; Earth’s gravity would be the first to be repelled!"

"The way you put it, it seems to make sense." Liu Zhenhan nodded. For an Ultimate Shield condensed with Elemental Power at the Saint Emperor level, anything less would seem lacking.
