Chapter 168 The False me Lord Kurbert


    Trantor: 549690339 |


    The so-called Avatar is an incarnation that a Demigod or a stronger being forms using a fragment of Divinity and a thread of consciousness as the core, around which arge amount of Divine Power is gathered.


    This refers to beings below Demigods; the Avatar of a True God is different.


    The strength of an Avatar is rted to Divinity and Divine Power. The amount of Divine Power carried during the forming of an Avatar determines its strength.


    The Divine Power carried by this Semi-god Vampire did not seem to be very much. Although the aura it emitted was strong, they did not feel greatly threatened.


    However, for Yu Xiu in the distance, the moment the Semi-god Vampire descended, he felt as if his head had been smashed by a sledgehammer. He lost consciousness for more than ten seconds, and when he came to, his face was as pale as paper. He hastily retracted his monocr and turned to run.


    Lin Xiao and the others were Divine Beings, having Divinity themselves, so they could ignore the pressure from the Demigod, but Yu Xiu was merely an ordinary person, a mortal in their eyes.


    No matter the mortal, facing a Demigod directly meant they had to undergo a round of Will saving throws.


    Clearly, his Will save failed, and he was stunned for more than ten seconds. In game terms, that would be equivalent to being unable to attack or defend for numerous rounds. If this were a battle, he would have already been dead beyond dead.


    As for Yu Xiu’s Half Beastman subordinates, they fared even worse. After a round of Will saving throws, all of them fell into fear and fled in all directions.


    This was only the case with a Demigod. If an Avatar of a True God descended, failing the Will saving throw could lead to different oues based on the True God’s alignment and will.


    If the True God was an Evil God, there would be a high probability of immediate death, with souls harvested by the Avatar of the Evil God.


    If the descending deity was not an Evil God, there would be a high chance of being forcibly converted, mind and will, into Fanatic Believers of the deity.


    Of course, these are the worst-case scenarios, applicable only to those mortals with weak wills. If they are Professionals with rtively strong wills, they would experience fear or be stunned like Yu Xiu.


    Having reached a small hill after fleeing a certain distance, Yu Xiu was about to take out a whistle to gather the scattered Half Beastmen when he felt a slight vibration in the bracelet on his wrist. He tapped it to project an image of a familiar middle-aged man who addressed him:


    “Where are you now?”


    Yu Xiu replied:


    “I’m outside of Alfonso City.”


    “Thepany has new orders. Leave Alfonso immediately and head to the area near Redstone teau Eagle Beak Gorge, which is at the border of the Vampire Kingdom and the Human Kingdom. Thepany has set up a camp there.”


    “And don’t pass through cities on your way.”


    The middle-aged man added a reminder:


    “Students from the Super Neer Summer Camp are currently training on this ne, and all Vampire Lords are their targets for attacks. They will likely assault the cities directly, so avoid going there to stay clear of the aftermath.” As Yu Xiu looked at the vast cloud of blood that had just covered the entire city, he took a swig from his sk to calm his shock and shrugged:


    “There’s no need to guess. Someone’s already attacking Alfonso. They entered the city in less than half an hour; now even the Avatar of the Vampire Demigod has descended. The battle has escted significantly.”


    “Wait!”


    The middle-aged man raised his hand to stop him and asked urgently:


    “You’re saying the Avatar of the Vampire Demigod has descended?”


    “Yes, what’s the problem, Supervisor?”


    The man referred to as Supervisor showed a trace of joy and said:


    “Then hurry back, and find a way to obtain that fragment of Divinity from the Demigod’ s Avatar.”


    “Pfft!”


    A mouthful of strong liquor sprayed on the ground, and Yu Xiu covered his mouth, rolling his eyes:


    “Are you joking, Supervisor? On what basis should I go after that fragment of Divinity? With my strength, should I use my head to snatch it?”


    The middle-aged man realized the impracticality and quickly exined:


    “I’m not asking you to steal it. Wait for them to defeat the Vampire Demigod, then go and buy that fragment of Divinity in the name of thepany. I’ll tell you what to say when the timees.”


    Yu Xiu fell silent. To be honest, he rejected the order, but he couldn’t refuse; refusal would mean trouble for his future prospects.


    Fortunately, he only needed to deliver a message and didn’t need to act himself; the danger wasn’t great, so he nodded and said,


    “I can go, but I have to wait for them to finish fighting and for it to be safe before I head over.”


    “That’s fine. Once youplete this task, when you return, you’ll be promoted to a First Level permission and reassigned to a better, more rxed position.”


    With this promise from the supervisor, Yu Xiu felt fully satisfied. He stuffed the whistle into his mouth and blew it forcefully to summon his Half Beastman subordinates.


    At the same time, not far from Alfonso City, Shen Yuexin and Lin Xu also appeared when the Vampire Demi-god Incarnation showed up. She reached out with a gesture and a whip shing with scorching white lightning appeared in her hand. With a gentle flick, the lightning-shaped whip quickly extended hundreds of meters in length, crackling through the void. She shouted softly,


    “Let’s make this a quick battle, to avoid any unnecessaryplications.”


    Lin Xiao withdrew his slightly odd gaze and shouted. His figure quickly erged, transforming into a colossal Naga thirty meters tall, with the appearance of a Supreme Naga with a human torso and snake tail, but his entire body’s scales glistened with golden light. He reached out for a Pure Gold Spear forty meters in length to appear in his hand.


    This was a trophy he’d acquired from the Snake People Demigod during the final exam. Since a Demigod had used it as a weapon, it was certainly formidable. He had cleansed it with Divine Power to remove the spiritual Branding left by the Snake People Demigod, and now it was his weapon.


    Lin Xu, on the other hand, wielded a magnificent Golden Bow, and when he drew the bowstring, a Golden Arrowposed purely of the Power of Faith slowly took shape.


    The power of his bow relied entirely on how much Power of Faith was consumed to condense the arrow; the more invested, the more powerful it became.


    As the three of them revealed their weapons, Lin Xiao knew it was time for him to take action. He stomped on the void, and concentric ripples exploded out of thin air. He turned into a mass of golden light and charged towards the Blood Realm spread out by the Vampire Demi-god Incarnation.


    It was quite a coincidence that the Vampire Demi-god also possessed a Blood Realm, which was stronger than that of the Snake People. He could feel that this Blood Realm wasced with aging rules.


    If a mortal were to enter this Blood Realm, not only would their own blood boil or be forcibly extracted, but they would also be affected by the aging rules and be weakened.


    The aging rule didn’t literally make one old—aging in the sense of involving the Supreme Time Law—but implied a state of weakness simr to that after life’s natural decline.


    The Blood Realm didn’t just cause one’s blood to boil or forcibly extract blood from targets; those were just the mostmonly used and powerful manifestations of the blood rule. Theplete Blood Rule epasses control over blood, which to ordinary people is most terrifying when all their blood is forcibly extracted or boils as if set on fire.


    These are the applications of the blood rule, control from the rule level that mortals simply cannot resist. This is the chasm-like difference between Gods and mortals.


    Only a Deity canbat another Deity. Although Lin Xiao and hispanions were not yet Demigods without Godhood, their potent Divinitybined with the Power of Faith could negate the effects of the rules.


    Of course, legendary beings who were just beginning to touch upon the rule level could also briefly resist the influences of domain rules.


    It’s worth mentioning that legendary ranks and legendary beings are two different concepts.


    Legendary ranks refer to the level of the troop type: Beastmen of Rank 6 and 7 are transcendent troops, and those of Rank 8 and 9 are legendary. This means that the troop type at this level is incredibly strong, like a legend.


    Legendary beings, however, are mortals who have begun to grasp the power of rules and possess legendary traits simr to Divinity, having reached the threshold of Rank 8 as evaluated by the countless mortal creatures of the Main World against the Void Sea Crystal Wall System. There’ s not much difference between the two in terms of physical constitution or abilities, but the biggest difference lies in their mastery of rules.


    To put it simply, both legendary ranks and legendary beings have a strength of 100. With a full-force strike, they can inflict damage equivalent to 50 points of strength on an enemy with a constitution of 50. However, a legendary being who has mastered rules can deal damage several times that of 50 by leveraging the power of rules, or use the power of rules to ignore the enemy’s defenses and inflict full damage.


    Alternatively, even a deity of God Level 0 with Weak Divine Power could instantly kill a legendary creature of Rank 8 or even Rank 9 using the transcendent divine power “Life and Death,” but would be unable to kill a Rank 8 legendary being who has mastered rules.


    Of course, this is true in most cases and doesn’t include some abnormal legendary troop types, such as Dragons, whose innate talents are so extraordinary that they defy conventional assessment.


    Besides, if a troop type can advance to Rank 10, there is no distinction between ordinary troops and legendary beings. Creatures that reach this level will definitely possess transcendent traitsparable to legendary rules, and be preposterously powerful.


    This Legendary Vampire Duke named Alfonso is actually considered a legendary creature, not a true legendary being who has mastered rules.


    To distinguish, those who have mastered rules are often referred to as True Legends or legendary beings, hence the name “beings.”


    But that’s just for those from the Main World. Many native nes also call some powerful species that reach Rank 8 through their bloodline’s power legendary, which causes quite a bit of confusion.


    However, they know that these legendary Vampire Dukes who reach Rank 8 through their bloodline are not truly legendary beings.


    “Boom!”


    Lin Xiao, like a shell shot from a cannon, broke into the Blood Realm, where his Divine protective power collided with the domain’s forces, creating a terrifying st that tore a huge chunk off the Blood Realm covering the entire city.


    He thrust his Pure Gold Spear forcefully, the golden transparent me wrapping around the spear, forming an inverted triangr cone at the tip, cutting through the thick blood as easily as a hot knife through butter, plunging a vast golden figure deep into the vast Blood Realm.


    Meanwhile, Shen Yuexin, who had flown to the edge of the Blood Realm, raised her Forbidden Whip andshed out fiercely. The scorching white lightning of the whip’s body suddenly swelled immensely, extending infinitely and turning into a lightning column thicker than a person, booming through the Blood Realm. In an instant, the whip’s body shed brightly and burst into countless tiny lightnings that spread in all directions, purifying the Blood Realm within reach with its lightning power.


    Compared to her overpoweringly forceful whip, Lin Xu’s action was extremely low-key, so much so that he didn’t even make a move.
