Chapter 250
However, Lu Li was not overly fixated on this. As long as he was provided with enough materials, the core of the Libra Holy Sword would certainly be able to return to its peak, and it would even be able to become stronger than ever before.
The Mecha Spirit added a "Separate Manifestation" effect. Not only did it retain the original separation ability, but it could also simultaneously summon the separated Magic Card Spirits in the outside world, no longer limited to only being able to manifest them while within the Eternal Land.
And this gave Lu Li quite a bit more operational flexibility.
For example, Lu Li now possessed Angewomon and LadyDevimon. Once he crafted a Jogress Evolution Magic Card in the future, he would be able to Jogress Evolve them into Mastemon.
However, to meet the conditions for Jogress Evolving Mastemon, both Angewomon and LadyDevimon had to exist simultaneously. In other words, even if Lu Li crafted the Jogress Magic Card, he would still need to perform the Jogress within the Eternal Land before he could summon Mastemon into reality.
While this was not without a solution, it was quite troublesome.
But with the Mecha Spirit having added the "Separate Manifestation" effect, Lu Li no longer needed to go through such trouble; he could perform the Jogress in the outside world as well.
By the same logic, similar Jogress Evolution Digimon like Omnimon or Rafflesimon could also be Jogress Evolved much more conveniently.
Thinking about the top-tier Digimon he could obtain through Jogress Evolution once he crafted the cards in the future, Lu Li couldn't help but smack his lips.
If nothing else, this point alone was enough for Lu Li to value the "Separate Manifestation" effect. In fact, if he continued to dig deeper, the effect could be developed even further.
As for the Sea of Life, which the Dragon Sanctuary had transformed into, its effects were also not to be underestimated.
Most importantly, the original Dragon Sanctuary could only replicate Dragon-type Magic Card Spirits, but the Sea of Life removed this restriction. In other words, Lu Li could now replicate all types of Magic Cards.
At the same time, the number of extra slots for summoning Magic Card Spirits increased from two to three. Although the number of summons increased, the consumption to maintain the existence of a single replicated Magic Card Spirit decreased from the original 50% to 30%, meaning the total consumption had actually gone down.
Even though he was still only a King Realm Magic Card Master, if he counted these three extra summoning slots, Lu Li could summon up to eight Magic Card Spirits onto the field at once.
Moreover, the combined consumption of those three replicated Magic Card Spirits didn't even equal the consumption of summoning one normal Magic Card Spirit!
"In this way, the number of Magic Card Spirits I can summon onto the field simultaneously has already reached the limit of what an Immortal Realm Magic Card Master can achieve." In a sense, Lu Li felt this was a massive profit.
The cost was merely the consumption of less than one additional Magic Card Spirit, and with the Eternal Sun as a backup energy source, this consumption meant absolutely nothing to Lu Li.
However, compared to the increase in existing summoning slots, Lu Li was even more concerned with the new effect added to the Sea of Life.
For every level the Magic Card Master increases, an additional Magic Card Spirit summoning slot is added.
"Although the Dragon Sanctuary only transformed into the Sea of Life now, the level increases from King Realm and below cannot retroactively recover those extra summoning slots."
"However, once I promote to Emperor, Sovereign, or even higher levels like the Immortal Realm in the future, I will be able to add one extra summoning slot for every level on top of the original number."
"In this way, even a group as large as the Royal Knights could be summoned onto the field simultaneously once I promote to the Immortal Realm."
If other Magic Card Masters knew Lu Li's thoughts, they would definitely think he was daydreaming; after all, that was the Immortal Realm!
How many Immortals did the entire Ancient Kingdom possess? Even if expanded to the entire Magic Card civilization, the number of Magic Card Masters who had reached the Immortal Realm in the current era would definitely not exceed one hundred!
This was no longer a question of whether one worked hard or not; at this level, talent determined the ceiling.
Without sufficient talent, it was simply impossible to promote to the Immortal Realm!
Furthermore, for a Sovereign to promote to an Immortal, it was not just a matter of simply crafting Magic Cards and obtaining enough mana reflux to succeed.
On top of that, other conditions had to be met for a Sovereign to promote to an Immortal.
Otherwise, although there were not many Sovereigns in the Ancient Kingdom, the base number was not low, yet there wouldn't be so few Immortal Realm experts in the current era.
But precisely because of this, those familiar with Lu Li did not think he was boasting, because Lu Li's performance had always exceeded everyone's imagination.
Not to mention, behind him stood the Undying Realm Night Queen; this point alone already made him far stronger than others!
Regarding the "Separate Manifestation" effect added to the Mecha Spirit and the effects of the Sea of Life after the Dragon Sanctuary's transformation, Lu Li was already extremely satisfied, even if there were no other gains.
However, the changes brought about by concluding the origin with the Earth Mother Goddess Tiamat were clearly far more than this. After all, she was a World Will, and even if she was not in a complete state when concluding the origin with the phantom of the World Pillar, her level was already at the very top!
【Concluded the origin with Earth Mother Goddess Tiamat. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Earth Mother Goddess's blessing: Anti-Genesis!】
"Anti-Genesis?" The name sounded incredibly impressive. Lu Li was filled with interest in this Anti-Genesis in his heart: "The Earth Mother Goddess's blessing, could it be the same type of blessing as the Spirit Plant Protection held by Celestin?"
A blessing unique to a World Will; the specifications of this thing were extremely high.
"Every World Will born from the World Pillar possesses its own unique abilities," Tiamat explained, as if sensing Lu Li's thoughts: "This ability is a manifestation of world rules. Generally speaking, unless recognized by the World Will, there is no way to obtain this kind of blessing."
"And as the Earth Mother Goddess, the blessing I possess, once transformed into an ability, is Anti-Genesis!"
469. Once Anti-Genesis is activated, no one is loved.
Hearing Tiamat's explanation, Lu Li nodded in understanding. Her explanation was similar to what he had thought, which was about the same as when he obtained the Spirit Plant Protection ability back then.
As for Celestin, the World Tree Spirit lady, her gaze couldn't help but become subtle, because at this moment, she thought of the scene when she first met Lu Li in the Crescent Land.
Back then, everyone else had clear skies and white clouds, but Lu Li had stubbornly drawn her a "Full City in Golden Armor," and even before obtaining her recognition, he had directly linked to her Spirit Core.
Celestin really wanted to refute Tiamat's statement; perhaps even if Lu Li hadn't obtained Tiamat's recognition, he might have had an explosion of luck and ultimately obtained the Anti-Genesis blessing.
But just thinking about it, Celestin felt it was better to let it go.
After all, even if she recalled it now, she felt it was incredibly unbelievable. If she hadn't experienced it herself, Celestin herself would find it very hard to believe, let alone others.
【Anti-Genesis: A blessing obtained after contracting the origin of the Earth Mother Goddess Tiamat, possessing uniqueness. Upon activation, it unfolds a conceptual barrier that erodes and alters the real world with oneself as the center. Enemy units within the conceptual barrier have their mana consumption doubled, attack intensity halved, and they gain the negative status of 'Life Erosion'; both parties can ignore distance and space to perform two-way summoning without consumption!】
Like the Crescent Blessing and Spirit Plant Protection, the Anti-Genesis blessing also possessed uniqueness, meaning that after Lu Li obtained this blessing, others would have no way to obtain it.
However, since the origin had been concluded with the World Pillar phantom, Lu Li didn't intend to let Tiamat conclude the origin with other existences anyway.
Besides uniqueness, Anti-Genesis had the same point as Spirit Plant Protection: as the two holders of the blessing, Lu Li and Tiamat could ignore space and distance to perform two-way summoning without consumption, just like he currently could with Celestin.
Being able to simultaneously summon two World Wills belonging to different worlds, he was probably the only one who could do this.
Thinking about holding the blessings of Anti-Genesis and Spirit Plant Protection, and being able to summon two World Wills anytime and anywhere, Lu Li couldn't help but smack his lips.
If nothing else, this was definitely a luxury unique to him! It was likely that even the four Great Domain Lords would be shocked if they knew this.
Shaking his head to cast aside the messy thoughts in his mind, Lu Li focused again on the introduction of Anti-Genesis.
Compared to the two-way summoning with Tiamat, he was more concerned with the other effect of Anti-Genesis.
Unlike the effect of Spirit Plant Protection which acted on Lu Li himself, the additional effect held by Anti-Genesis, although both formed a conceptual barrier based on oneself, the effect within the conceptual barrier did not act on Lu Li or the Magic Card Spirits he held, but rather on enemy units.
To put it simply, Spirit Plant Protection was a buff status, while Anti-Genesis was a debuff status. Moreover, the effect of this debuff status was not ordinary.
Attacks halved, mana consumption doubled—no matter which point it was, for enemies covered by Anti-Genesis, it was definitely not comfortable. But this was not the strongest effect of Anti-Genesis.
The strongest effect of Anti-Genesis was the negative status of "Life Erosion"!
According to Lu Li's understanding, as long as an enemy identified by Lu Li entered Anti-Genesis, from the moment they entered, their life source would be branded with an erosion mark.
These enemies branded with the erosion mark would have their vitality in a state of constant loss at every moment.
Furthermore, because the erosion mark acted directly on the life source, this status could not be cleared!
Even if they left the range covered by Anti-Genesis, it would still be the same. Such a method could only slow down the rate of vitality loss.
In other words, as long as Anti-Genesis was activated, even if Lu Li stood there without moving, he could continuously drain the enemy's health pool. Moreover, this health-draining effect could not be stopped.
This meant that once Anti-Genesis was opened, it was bound to see blood and decide life or death!
"The effect of this Anti-Genesis is indeed outrageous. In a sense, its effect on the battlefield even surpasses Spirit Plant Protection." Fully understanding the effect of Anti-Genesis, Lu Li couldn't help but smack his lips again.
However, Spirit Plant Protection possessed the effect of a Spirit Shield; as long as it was activated, it could immunize against all damage received within ten seconds.
In terms of life-saving means, Spirit Plant Protection was superior to Anti-Genesis.
It could be said that both sides had their own advantages and a certain degree of complementarity. If used properly, it would definitely produce unexpected effects.
"Anti-Genesis, this is simply a must-have skill for team fighting!" Lu Li couldn't help but think.
Team fighting was a side that many Magic Card Masters would inevitably experience on their path of growth.
Battles against fierce beasts went without saying; when strength was equal or even slightly inferior, Magic Card Masters would choose team fighting to gang up on the opponent, as the safety factor was greatly improved.
But more importantly, it was team fighting between Magic Card Masters! One could say that a Magic Card Master's career was incomplete without experiencing team fighting between Magic Card Masters!
And in this situation, once the effect of Anti-Genesis was unleashed, it would undoubtedly be a weapon for team fighting.
Imagine if, when starting a fight, Lu Li directly opened an Anti-Genesis to cover them; then his enemies, let alone fighting, even if they just stayed within Anti-Genesis and did nothing, their strength would be greatly weakened.
Especially for Magic Card Masters, in many cases, they were in a state of extreme dependence on mana, as the Magic Card Master's greatest means were summoning and maintaining the existence of Magic Card Spirits, which required consuming a lot of mana.
Staying within Anti-Genesis, not only was mana consumption doubled, but the time to maintain the existence of Magic Card Spirits was instantly halved, and even the attack effects of the Magic Card Spirits were halved. This was simply taking the Magic Card Master's life!
Just this point alone meant not many people would be willing to play with Lu Li while staying within Anti-Genesis.
Plus, Anti-Genesis was not a skill of a Magic Card Spirit, but a blessing belonging to Lu Li. And as a Magic Card Master, Lu Li generally would not personally go to the battlefield, so the difficulty of breaking the effect of Anti-Genesis by dealing with him was even greater.
Even if they relied on a sneak attack, with the ten-second invincibility of Spirit Plant Protection, Lu Li could be said to be in an invincible position.
470. It's you! Greater Lord Rukkhadevata!
"However, although the ability of this Anti-Genesis is powerful, the mana consumed to activate it is also not to be underestimated. The demand for mana is really quite terrifying."
Although the effect of Anti-Genesis was absolutely top-notch, the consumption was also top-tier. Lu Li just sensed it slightly and found that even with his peak King Realm mana, it was only enough to satisfy the consumption of activating Anti-Genesis. After that, he would likely be drained dry.
"However, as long as mana can satisfy the activation of Anti-Genesis, then with the recovery effect of Spirit Plant Protection, it is enough to maintain the existence of Anti-Genesis for a short time."
"Even if the recovery still can't keep up with the consumption, as long as the enemies are all resolved before the mana is exhausted, it will be fine."
Although the mana consumption of Anti-Genesis was very outrageous, this didn't mean Lu Li had absolutely no countermeasures.
"Moreover, besides the recovery ability of Spirit Plant Protection, I also have the Eternal Sun as a backup energy source."
"The upgraded Eternal Sun has both mana recovery efficiency and mana storage limits that exceed the past."
