Chapter 223

Of course, because the essence still belongs to Secret Steel and Absolute Profit Steel, even after devouring this alloy.

It is impossible to obtain a brand-new special gene.

The materials Lu Cang obtained from the treasury.

Are not limited to these.

As one of the five capital treasuries.

It possesses many Saint-grade materials.

Secret Steel, a full three hundred units.

Besides that, there are also Saint-grade materials reinforced with specific elements.

They can be used to craft mages' staves.

For example, 【Cloud Wood】.

It can greatly enhance the power of wind-element magic.

These materials are all excellent materials.

Lu Cang brought them all to the nest, devouring and analyzing them one by one.

Originally, Lu Cang's intention was simply to devour materials.

To strengthen his own combat power.

However, since he is going to make a move on the treasury.

It would be better to just occupy the city outright.

Now is precisely the best opportunity.

The various Saint-grade lords are all too busy.

If one waits until the Saints are free, then truly, once this village is passed, this shop will be gone.

After Lu Cang settled everything properly.

He looked at the special item Heng Heng Yuan had given him.

【Taboo Inscription Notes】.

Within it lies the secret regarding the Saints.

And a unique structure.

"Taboo Inscription."

Lu Cang stood in the blood pool, gazing at this line of text.

At the same time, referring to the information Heng Heng Yuan sent over.

He interpreted the notes.

The text on the notes is completely different from the script used by lords nowadays.

Among the troop types, there is one category named Archaeologist, Decoder.

They are the ones who specialize in this kind of work.

This type of troop is generally used within the Ruoshilian Alliance as a support unit.

Lu Cang and Heng Heng Yuan also became friends.

Referring to the text Heng Heng Yuan sent, he cross-referenced and interpreted it.

"Saints can continuously increase their own strength by expanding their territory."

"According to territory range, Saint-grade lords are divided into three stages: Initial Saint, Mortal Saint, and Supreme Saint."

"Among Supreme Saints, strength is distinguished solely by territory grade."

"Above the Saint grade lies the Taboo rank."

"Lords of this rank can enter Life Forbidden Zones without being affected by the forbidden zone laws."

"There are multiple methods to advance to the Saint grade; once one is selected, the promotion path cannot be changed."

"Subsequent advancement to the Taboo rank can only be completed through the method corresponding to the Saint-grade promotion."

Lu Cang carefully pondered this passage.

In these words, every single sentence is bursting with information.

Above the Saint grade, there is yet another rank?

But then again, the distinction of strength among Saints was something already known long ago.

Through this Taboo Inscription.

Lu Cang also roughly understood how the strength of Saint-grade lords is judged.

Saint-grade lords indeed each control a vast area.

One certain Saint-grade lord even directly occupied one-third of the northern region, capable of challenging the Ruoshilian Alliance directly.

"That is to say, my current occupation of the Far East is actually paving the way for my life after becoming a Saint."

"Perhaps after I reach the Saint grade."

"I can directly become a Mortal Saint or even a Supreme Saint level."

"However, above the Saint grade, there is still the Taboo; it seems this is far from the end."

"Let's first see how to advance."

If the leader of the Lianmengde Alliance knew Lu Cang was reading these messages.

He would likely be so angry he would vomit blood.

He spent decades researching.

Only by continuing the research left behind by Elax did he find a seemingly viable path.

As for whether it is actually feasible, that has not yet been tried.

But Lu Cang directly took it from the hands of the Vice President of the Zuzhou Society.

In a manner almost equivalent to getting it for free, he obtained the Taboo Inscription.
