Banner of the Evil God

Mortals can improve their strength to the high-level peak through training and adventure. What is the specific level of this "high-level peak"? Sui Xiong did a quantitative analysis, which is roughly the total level of 19 in Creek's system.

At this level, it is very difficult to increase the level.

If you have enough resources, you can consider taking a shortcut and becoming a water-imported strongman. For example, after the 19th level of the combat profession, find a large library to study hard for a few years and get two or three scholar levels; or find a territory to be a lord, get a few lord levels, and you can simply become a saint and become a legendary strongman.

Of course, this kind of legendary strongman is very watery, and some of them can't even beat high-level geniuses such as the late Spencer. When Leon used the pseudonym "Lei" and traveled across the Western Wilderness, he fought against this kind of water-imported strongman. Although he couldn't win, he never lost. Joseph Riley, the former mayor of Gars City, was such a weak player. He could bully those masters with less equipment with his top-level equipment. He even killed other legendary players with magic circles, helpers and strategies. But in a fair duel, he was almost the bottom of the legend.

If you don't want to be a weak player, you must first find a direction to transcend the ordinary and become a saint. If this direction fits you, you can get the 20th level and enter the world of "quasi-legend". If you can follow this direction and make a key change in this direction, you can get the 21st level and become a real legendary player.

In this regard, priests, priests and holy warriors are the most advantageous. As direct subordinates of gods, as long as they are strong enough, they can often get the guidance of gods through prayers and find a path that suits them more easily. Therefore, among the legendary strongmen from ancient times to the present, at least 60% to 70% are priests, and other professions combined are only half of the priests.

Apart from the clergy, those who study both physics and magic have some advantages in this regard, because they are more flexible and can take more paths. Pure physics lags behind, and pure magic is the most tragic.

This is very strange. Among all high-level professionals, high-level mages have the highest social status and the strongest comprehensive ability. But it is also the most difficult to go further and become a legendary strongman.

The key to this reason is that mages know too much and can take too many paths... but there are too few that really fit themselves.

A mage, an orthodox mage, will know at least more than a hundred feasible ways to enter the legendary realm. But when he actually tries it himself, he will find that these hundred ways are basically not suitable for him, so he will go from one failure to another. After several failures, his life is almost over.

This is why there are very few legendary mages. Often only some long-lived species, or those with powerful mentors, or those with extremely good luck can find a path that really fits them before their lifespans run out.

However, there is always gain and loss. Once a mage finds a path that suits him, it is a matter of course to enter the legendary realm. Often, only a large-scale ceremony is needed to adjust his body and soul to the direction that is completely suitable for this path, and then use the huge magic power to directly enter the legendary realm. It is simple and clear.

In contrast, even if other professions find a path, they must continue to work hard, slowly accumulate, adjust themselves, and accumulate strength. Many people fall in this process and die with their eyes open.

Satan is undoubtedly a lucky mage. Although he was a little unlucky when he was young, he finally got lucky when he was almost 30 years old and successfully got on Sui Xiong's thigh. With Sui Xiong's support, his magic research has made rapid progress and his strength has also increased rapidly. It took only a little more than 20 years to reach the peak of the high level. As the most reliable high-level spellcaster of the Church of the Void Mask, the two gods of the church take good care of him. The god of knowledge, Vol, even spared no effort to spend time to deduce a suitable path for him, and finally deduced several good choices.

Among these paths, Satan's first choice is "purification".

He is a very ambitious man. Although other paths may be relatively easy, the corresponding priesthoods have already been taken by extremely powerful gods. Only the priesthood of "purification" has not yet been taken by a powerful god.

If he takes this path, he will face much less resistance when he is deified in the future.

Although he is still a mortal who has not even entered the legendary realm, Satan has a long-term vision and great ideals. As long as there is hope, he must work hard towards deification!

For this reason, he carefully thought about it and finally decided to use "purifying the ash forest" as his path to deification. As long as he walks along this path little by little, when the entire ash forest is purified, the power and faith he has accumulated will definitely be enough to deify!

This may take many years, hundreds of years, thousands of years, or even thousands of years... But he believes that he will be able to walk this path to the end and eventually become one of the immortals in the Pantheon!

This experiment is of great significance to him, as it is related to whether he can verify his understanding of the concept of "purification". If the verification fails, it means that his accumulation in the past two years has gone in the wrong direction. He must readjust his understanding, the structure of the magic power in his body, and even his mindset.

In that case, it will take at least ten years, maybe even longer. There are countless mages in the world who grow old due to such failures again and again, and finally die of old age unwillingly. There are also many mages who have to risk their lives to try some difficult life-extending methods in order to gain enough time to progress. Most of them have failed, either by failing to extend their lives, or by successfully extending their lives but finding that their path to legend is cut off. There are still only a few who can finally step into the realm of legend.

Satan is over fifty years old this year. Even with the help of the life-extending potion, his physical and mental peak condition will only last for about thirty years at most. After this time, the aging of the soul will be reflected in the spirit. Even if the body is still young, the path forward as a mage will inevitably become narrower.

Thirty years is probably enough time to fail three times.

When he thought about it, he knew why he was so nervous and concerned. Why did he not hesitate to spend all his money, even almost squandering all his wealth, and still owe two adults to do this huge experiment?

Fortunately, he was lucky, and the first experiment was successful. Next, as long as he performs a ritual to adjust himself, and then uses the huge magic power impact, he can basically guarantee that he will enter the legendary realm.

According to his current situation and the family background of the Void Mask Church, it is estimated that it will be ready in about half a year. In no more than a year at most, he can become a legendary mage and reach a new peak in life!

The success of the magic circle is not only of great benefit to Satan, but also of great benefit to Felix and Qiao Xiu. By completing this huge magic circle, Felix's understanding and mastery of magic has been improved to a higher level, saving at least ten years of slowly accumulating time; Qiao Xiu has improved his control over the dragon's blood magic in his body. , and also saves a lot of time in practicing magic.

As for those who have benefited the most, it is actually the people of Huishi Town.

For a long time, the pioneers of the Ash Forest have lived in a weak negative energy environment. Even if towns and villages are protected by temples, people always have to go out. Once they go out, they will inevitably be eroded by negative energy.

Under this situation, the lifespan of the civilians in the Ash Forest is relatively short. They often start to age and get sick around the age of forty, and will die painfully from diseases within a few years. Of course they don't want to live this kind of life, but they have no choice but to endure it silently.

There are no magic props in the world to resist negative energy, and there are no magic potions that can eliminate the erosion of negative energy. How can ordinary people afford it?

But it’s different now!

The completion of the large-scale purification array eliminates the need for the vast majority of residents of Pyroxene Town to be exposed to negative energy. Even the negative energy erosion that has accumulated in the body will be slowly purified over time. This allows them to live longer and stay healthier. The former is not visible yet, but the latter is immediate.

Almost immediately after the purification circle was completed, people traveling outside the town felt that the surrounding environment had changed. It's not that there is more or less smell in the air, but the previous gloomy and depressing feeling is gone, and the whole person feels much more relaxed.

They looked at me and you in confusion, wondering what was going on.

But there is no doubt that this is definitely a good thing!

That night, Felix summoned all the residents of Pyrex Town and announced that "the large-scale purification circle has been completed. From now on, as long as you don't go out of the green space in the woods, you don't have to worry about being eroded by negative energy." The residents were confused at first - they didn't understand what negative energy was, but after Felix further explained it, they were overjoyed, as happy as a holiday.

After all, who doesn’t want to live a long and healthy life!

Seeing this scene, Felix was moved in his heart and declared today as the "Purification Day" every year, and a celebration would be held to celebrate this happy day.

As the saying goes, good things should come early. Since this holiday has been decided, let’s just celebrate it today!

So when Qiao Xiu returned to Huishi Town, he saw raging bonfires burning in the square in the center of the town, several tables filled with white bread and ale, and two chefs preparing meat respectively. and vegetables. The residents laughed, sang, and rejoiced.

They laughed so freely, as if they wanted to use this celebration to release all the depression and pressure they had accumulated for a long time.

They sang so cheerfully, as if they wanted to use their singing to drive away all bad luck, usher in endless good luck, and hold it firmly in their hands and never let it go.
