184: Chapter 184 Luck Boosts, Invasion Arrives
Returning to the central area, Lin Xiao took out Heaven And Earth Treasures one by one, preparing to distribute them to enhance his subordinates' strength.
The quantity of Heaven And Earth Treasures was limited, so he would definitely prioritize enhancing his heroes.
With six heroes, plus the seventh hero who had not yet been summoned, Lin Xiao originally would have given them to the hero with the strongest combat power first, but now, his thoughts had changed.
The reason lay in the three Advanced Military Formation Techniques that had reached the Minor Achievement Realm.
Advanced Military Formation Techniques at the Minor Achievement Realm allowed heroes to participate, and under the Formation's bonuses, the latter's strength would skyrocket.
Lin Xiao's gaze fell upon the three heroes: Guan Ri, Tu Lie, and Zhong Yue. There was nothing much to say about Guan Ri; his combat power was already extremely strong, not much worse than Ares.
Tu Lie and Zhong Yue were slightly inferior, but if they could manipulate the Advanced Military Formation at the Minor Achievement Realm, then their priority would actually be above the other heroes.
"What Realm has your understanding of the Formation reached? Has it achieved Minor Achievement yet?" Lin Xiao inquired.
"Mm."
"Reporting to Lord, it reached the Minor Achievement Realm not long ago."
"Lord, this subordinate has not failed the mission."
Facing Lin Xiao's inquiry, the three of them responded one after another.
Unlike Troop Types, heroes had to first light up the Principles of Formations before they could learn and master Advanced Military Formations. Therefore, their understanding of the Advanced Military Formations had already reached the Minor Achievement Realm not long ago.
And precisely because of their guidance, legendary grade Troop Types like Xue Ying and Wang Wu were only a step away from achieving Minor Achievement in the Formation.
"Good."
Lin Xiao immediately made a decision; he took out three eighth-order Heaven And Earth Treasures and distributed them to the three people.
"Eat them."
The three of them, including Guan Ri, did not hesitate at all, swallowing the three eighth-order Heaven And Earth Treasures in one gulp. The latter melted upon contact with their mouths, instantly transforming into countless warm currents, starting to wildly enhance their strength.
Lin Xiao opened the attribute panels of the three, seeing their attributes instantly surpass two hundred million, and finally, both Physique and spirit reached three hundred million.
Among them, one hundred million came from the Hunyuan Saint Body.
After eating these three eighth-order Heaven And Earth Treasures, they could increase Physique by 200 million and spirit by 200 million in total.
After stripping away the bonus from the Hunyuan Saint Body, Guan Ri and the others originally had seventy million attributes. In other words, only 130 million Physique and spirit were added.
That missing portion of Physique and spirit was consumed and lost.
Although Lin Xiao's talent allowed heroes and Troop Types to use higher-tier Heaven And Earth Treasures to increase their attributes, once it exceeded the tier upper limit, a portion would be lost, unable to be one-hundred-percent converted.
The more it exceeded, the greater the loss would be.
This was also the fundamental reason why Lin Xiao did not use these Heaven And Earth Treasures at Rank 5, but instead waited until Rank 6 to use them.
There were also two eighth-order Heaven And Earth Treasures, which could each increase Physique or spirit by 400 million.
It was best to use them on the same person.
"Guan Ri, you use them."
Lin Xiao quickly made his decision.
Under equivalent attributes, Guan Ri's combat power was stronger. Furthermore, whether it was long-range strikes or killing powerful individuals, the role he could play was above Tu Lie and Zhong Yue.
After using the last two eighth-order Heaven And Earth Treasures, an incomparably terrifying aura emanated from Guan Ri's body.
His attributes finally stopped at six hundred million, which was as much as six times the upper limit of a Seventh-order Lord.
After promoting to Rank 6, the entire territory was once again included in the attack range of the Arrow of No Distance. In the future, all invading enemies would endure the ultra-long-range strikes from Guan Ri.
And it would still be an ultra-strong attack blessed by the Formation.
Lin Xiao did not keep the seventh-order Heaven And Earth Treasures either; he used them to enhance the strength of Jiang Yao, Ares, and the others.
However, seventh-order Heaven And Earth Treasures could only raise their attributes to a maximum of one hundred million, unable to exceed this upper limit.
Of course, the attributes added by the Hunyuan Saint Body were an additional bonus, which would not increase the difficulty of Cultivate nor affect the use of Heaven And Earth Treasures.
Jiang Yao's attributes were closest to one hundred million. Using just two seventh-order Heaven And Earth Treasures, she raised all her attributes to one hundred million. Combined with the Hunyuan Saint Body, her final attributes were two hundred million.
Qian Ying and Ares used up three and four respectively, leaving twenty-seven seventh-order Heaven And Earth Treasures.
Lin Xiao's heart stirred slightly as he took out a legendary grade directional hero recruitment item, preparing to summon the seventh hero of the territory.
Suddenly, his actions paused.
A while had already passed since upgrading to a Level 6 Lord's territory, and the enemy's attack could arrive at any time.
The chaos mist had already been activated, but Lin Xiao hoped to maximize its effect.
The flower of fortune appeared in his hands.
As Lin Xiao chose to use it, the flower of fortune instantly transformed into a mysterious light, enveloping him within it.
Although the flower of fortune was a one-time item, its effect could last for a period of time.
Had his fortune gotten better?
Lin Xiao sensed it, but didn't find anything different about himself.
Things like fortune were obviously not so intuitively visible as good or bad, but he didn't have time to carefully experience it either. Lin Xiao grasped that legendary grade directional recruitment item and chose to use it.
...
On the Human Race prodigy ranking.
Without any warning, the number one Lin Xiao underwent a change, and the territory Rank behind him became Level 6.
"Holy shit, Lin Xiao has already become a Sixth-order Lord."
"Does it have to be this outrageous?"
The lower-order lords of the First Source Sea knew very little about the great battle that occurred in the Second Source Sea, while major faction prodigies like Wei Xuanqi and Yun Zhiyue had already ascended when the fourth and fifth-order lords of the Four Great Races collapsed.
Therefore, they were unclear about what the upgrade of Lin Xiao's territory Rank meant, and only felt shocked and incredible.
However, the Sin Race spies lurking inside the Human Race reacted at the very first moment.
"Lin Xiao has upgraded to a Level 6 territory."
"Pass the news to the higher-ups immediately."
They found a way to quickly transmit the news out.
Even without these spies tipping them off, the Four Great Races quickly detected the upgrade of Lin Xiao's territory Rank.
"Quick, attack immediately."
"Lin Xiao will definitely try every possible means to rapidly upgrade to a Level 7 territory now; we must absolutely not let him succeed."
The higher-ups of the Four Great Races immediately issued the order to attack.
At this time, after openly drawing battle lines, both sides' sixth and seventh-order tiers were already fighting fiercely, especially the Seventh-order Lords. Basically, every exposed Seventh-order Lord was dragged into the flames of war, either being invaded by enemies or invading others.
After Jiang Feng and the others launched a strong assault, the higher-ups of the Four Great Races immediately realized that Lin Xiao was going to upgrade his territory.
They immediately mobilized, finding ways to allow some Seventh-order Lords to free up their hands and jointly attack Lin Xiao's territory.
This process would take a little time.
Therefore, the ones who launched the attack first were the Sixth-order Lords.
The number of Sixth-order Lords was far greater than Seventh-order Lords. Both sides were engaged in a chaotic brawl, and no one could completely control the battle situation. Therefore, it was not difficult to have a portion of the Sixth-order Lords break away from combat.
Not to mention, a batch of Sixth-order Lords had also been added to the Four Great Races some time ago. Among these Sixth-order Lords, a portion of their territory coordinates had not been exposed and they had not suffered attacks from Human Race lords at all.
The Four Great Races did not expect these Sixth-order Lords to bring how much threat to Lin Xiao; they only hoped to stall him and create an opportunity for the Seventh-order Lords' fatal blow.
