270: Chapter 270 Golden Trait! Crimson Moon Agent! Breathing Technique Rank Upgrade!

Inside the Wizard Tower.

Rowan heard the question but did not answer immediately.

He closed his eyes and sank his consciousness into the panel in his mind.

[ born succubus more children more blessings system ]

Myriad Furnace Breathing Technique lv4 (1867 / +∞) (Sky Knight)

Current Traits: [ Annihilation (Light Purple) ], [ Vampire Prince (Purple) ], [ Fire Bearer (Purple) ]

His gaze fell upon the [ Vampire Prince (Purple) ] entry.

[ Vampire Prince (Purple) ]:

Perfect-grade trait, a power of a high-order life form derived from the origin rules of the Red Moon.

Can devour and fuse with other traits of the same origin.

When conditions are met, it can be sublimated to the extreme into the legendary-grade trait [ Red Moon Proxy (Gold) ].

This was his goal this time—according to the predetermined plan, he would inject all the offerings from the sacrifice into the blood core within the Myriad Furnace, pushing the [ Vampire Prince ] trait to evolve to a higher level!

...

"I need extreme sublimation!"

"Come! Give me! Power!"

As soon as the words fell in Rowan's heart, BOOM!

An incomparably vast energy seemed to appear out of thin air, surging into the blood core within his Myriad Furnace!

HUM!

The blood core began to spin rapidly, emitting a low rhythm that sounded like a heartbeat!

Thump, thump, thump...

The line [ Vampire Prince (Purple) ] on the panel began to grow more intensely purple...

As the energy continued to pour in—who knew how much time had passed.

At one moment, the text on the panel began to twist.

[ Vampire Prince (Purple) -> (Extreme Purple) ]

Then, a new line of text appeared.

[ Sublimation path detected! ]

[ Vampire Prince (Extreme Purple) (1 / 100000) ]

[ After the extreme sublimation of a purple trait, it will sublimate into a golden trait! ]

Seeing this, Rowan's breath hitched, but he felt a surge of joy.

As expected, Red Moon energy was highly compatible with the [ Vampire Prince ] trait and could be used for extreme sublimation!

He steadied himself and continued to guide the power surging from the balance of blood into the blood core.

This power seemed endless, pushing the energy value of [ Vampire Prince (Extreme Purple) ] to rise rapidly!

10000... 20000... 30000...

The numbers were jumping rapidly.

The blood core was also spinning and vibrating crazily.

Rowan could feel his power growing at an unprecedented speed.

Finally, after reaching a limit, no matter how crazily the external energy poured in, the energy value of [ Vampire Prince (Extreme Purple) ] would not budge.

It was as if an invisible bottleneck stood before that final step, and no matter how he pushed, it could not advance even a fraction.

The speed of the blood core's rotation suddenly slowed down.

Rowan's consciousness swept over the panel—[ Vampire Prince (Extreme Purple) (99999 / 100000) ].

Ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine.

Just a little bit short!

Rowan was stunned for a moment, then a nameless fire rushed straight to his head.

He had worked hard to plan, risked being ganged up on to kill two Sky Knights and one 7th-Ring Wizard, and even sacrificed the entire blood origin main vein and all the offerings from the balance of blood, pouring a massive amount of blood energy into it, only for you to get me stuck at ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine?

Just missing that last bit?

Thinking of this, Rowan was furious!

He roared in his heart: "Who the hell are you trying to mess with!"

"System! Give me! Add points!!!"

[ Free Attribute Point - 1 ]

BOOM!!!

On the panel, the number stuck at ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine jumped slightly.

The next instant, Rowan felt as if the entire world had gone quiet for a split second.

Then, an indescribable power exploded within his body!

His aura began to climb steadily!

The blood core within his body also completely transformed at this moment, changing from dark red to a noble golden-red.

The text on the panel twisted and reorganized again.

[ Vampire Prince (Extreme Purple) ] -> [ Red Moon Proxy (Gold) ]

[ Myriad Furnace Breathing Technique (Perfect-grade) -> (Legendary-grade) ]

New information slowly emerged:

[ Myriad Furnace Breathing Technique lv4 (Legendary-grade) (101867 / 180000) (Sky Knight) ]

Traits: [ Annihilation (Light Purple) ], [ Fire Bearer (Purple) ], [ Red Moon Proxy (Gold) ]

After reading it, Rowan felt a surge of joy.

A golden trait!

Also, the Breathing Technique rank had increased!

It had leapt from Perfect-grade to Legendary-grade!

The Myriad Furnace Breathing Technique could be upgraded again!

Although it required 180,000 proficiency points, several times the previous requirement, this also meant that Sky Knight would no longer be the end of this Breathing Technique!

He looked up, peering through the light barrier at the sky.

The offerings from the balance of blood had not yet ended, and excess energy was still pouring in continuously.

He did not waste it; he operated his Breathing Technique, beginning to whale-swallow this extra energy.

The Breathing Technique proficiency began to rise again.

1000... 2000...

Finally, after Rowan absorbed all the offerings from the balance of blood, the Breathing Technique proficiency value reached a new height.

[ Myriad Furnace Breathing Technique lv4 (121948 / 180000) (Sky Knight) ]

In one go, it had increased by over twenty thousand proficiency points.

He was still short more than fifty thousand proficiency points to officially promote to Legendary!

To become a true Legendary powerhouse!

Although not breaking through to Legendary all at once left Rowan feeling slightly disappointed, he quickly cast that thought to the back of his mind.

Because he could clearly feel that, against the backdrop of the current Red Moon revival, when he was in the Northern Territory, a land soaked in the power of the Red Moon, his strength might not lose to those true Legendary powerhouses.

It might even be stronger!

Under the Red Moon, it was his home field, his source of power, and an extension of his authority!

However, if he left the Northern Territory and went elsewhere, he probably could not yet be considered a true Legendary powerhouse.

Just then, he suddenly felt a strange connection.

It was a connection that seemed to span the void, rising from the depths of his soul and resonating with some existence far away.

That existence was vast and boundless, ancient and silent, as if it had been there since the beginning of the world.

A stream of information flowed along that connection, slowly pouring into his mind.

He closed his eyes and received it.

A moment later, he understood the meaning of that information.

He seemed to possess certain authorities of the Red Moon Proxy.

He carefully sensed and combed through the information pouring into his mind.

Suddenly, his gaze tightened.

One of the authorities was—he could shut down the process of the Red Moon Whisper indiscriminately teaching Red Moon rituals and forbidden knowledge to others.

In other words, he could cut off that channel that spread forbidden knowledge to the world through the Red Moon Whisper, preventing those bloody, insane whispers from randomly and indiscriminately drilling into the minds of listeners, tempting them toward corruption.

If he turned off this function, then bloody sacrifices and chaotic events across the Northern Territory would inevitably be greatly reduced!

He carefully pondered this authority.

If he turned off this function, then bloody sacrifice events in the Northern Territory would indeed be reduced a lot.

But at the same time, his Breathing Technique progress would inevitably slow down as a result.

Without so many people holding rituals, creating chaos, and releasing blood energy under the inducement of the Red Moon Whisper, the proficiency he could Drain from it would naturally be greatly reduced.

Moreover, for those who had no talent, no inheritance, and no resources, the Red Moon Whisper was the only way they could access extraordinary power.

Closing this function also meant that their path to the extraordinary would be completely severed!

Rowan was silent for a moment.

Ultimately, he made a decision—to use the authority of the Red Moon Proxy to shut down the Red Moon Whisper's dissemination of forbidden knowledge!
