Chapter 521

~8 min read 1,501 words

After finishing the drink, Luo Ke Xi Ba Er De directly passed out.

By the time he woke up, more than a month had passed outside.

And his strength leapt from Lower God straight to level 480, surging over 100 levels, even more exaggerated than the official 【Creation Holy Pill】!

Moreover, after waking up, Luo Ke Xi Ba Er De also discovered that his affinity for all five elements had reached an extremely high degree!

A full 97%!

You should know that as long as the affinity for a single element reaches above 95%, there is a high probability of breaking through the Main God realm and becoming an unparalleled powerhouse!

And he, all five elements are at 97%, absurdly high!

The extremely high affinity gave him strong control over the five major elements. Under the drive of Upper God strength, he quickly comprehended many skills.

These skills are like the weather between heaven and earth—violent winds and sudden rain, sandstorms and thunderstorms, seas of fire and meteors—each more spectacular than the last, with enormous scale.

Thus Luo Ke Xi Ba Er De called himself the "God of Weather".

After three hundred years of wandering, he gradually perfected the cultivation method of "Weather Magic", also raising his own strength to the peak of Upper God, gaining recognition from many forces, and solidifying the title of "God of Weather".

In the Shen Jie, "Title Gods" are existences even more formidable than those who have been ennobled as kings!

For example, the "God of Calamity", the "God of Mighty Barbarians", the "God of Spirits", and so on.

Such title-level powerhouses are at least level 490! Basically their strength lies between 495 and 500, only one step away from breaking through to enter the Main God realm.

As long as the Main God does not appear, they are basically invincible, able to come and go freely in the Shen Jie, rarely encountering danger.

Even when the monarchs of the twenty-four God Nations encounter them, they treat them with courtesy rather than hostility.

Because they could at any moment step into the Main God realm and become another being capable of founding a God Nation.

The God of Weather, Luo Ke Xi Ba Er De, traveled the Elemental Sea, and after many years wrote down this memoir, announcing his past experiences to the world.

But even after many years, he still does not understand why he was unharmed back then, encountering no danger, and walked out of the Mechanism Island with ease.

After all, even if others could get out, they would have struggled through danger, fighting their way out with difficulty; none were like him, sightseeing leisurely the whole way.

This riddle remains unsolved to this day, becoming a unique question mark in the legends of Elemental Sea adventures.

Xiao Feng read the dossier word by word, and his brows furrowed.

"Really strange—could it be that the God of Weather avoided danger on Mechanism Island just because of good luck?" he wondered.

He Er Na gave a noncommittal response, "Perhaps, or perhaps not. Mechanism Island not giving him trouble might be because he possesses some special trait that the island is unwilling to attack. Or maybe… Mechanism Island is a living thing that likes him more, so it didn't act."

These are the two mainstream speculations over the years in the Elemental Sea regarding the God of Weather's past encounter.

Xiao Feng said, "Are you trying to tell me that you think this trait is an exclusive talent of weather mages?"

He Er Na said, "I have had that guess. However, it's hard to say, because before entering Mechanism Island, Luo Ke Xi Ba Er De had not yet shown the affinity trait for the five natural elements. Maybe he gained it after drinking that cup of wine; no one can be certain."

Even the God of Weather himself doesn't know the reason, so others find it even harder to guess.

Xiao Feng frowned in thought, considering many possibilities for a moment, but each had loopholes or doubts, making it impossible to be wholly certain.

Xiao Feng frowned, thinking deeply; for a moment he considered many possibilities, but each had loopholes or doubts, and he could not fully confirm any.

"By the way, is having an elemental affinity above 97% considered high?" he asked.

He Er Na nodded naturally, "Yes, 95% is already high; I myself am at 95%, becoming an Upper God was easy, with almost no major resistance. It's just that opportunities are scarce, so my cultivation speed is relatively slow."

He Er Na nodded as a matter of course and said: "Exactly, 95% is already high; I am 95%, becoming an Upper God is easy, with almost no major obstacle. It's just that opportunities are too few, so my cultivation speed is relatively slow."

Xiao Feng fell into a silence.

"What's wrong, Master? Could your affinity also be very high?" He Er Na asked curiously.

Xiao Feng's single "just" word made her unable to help but indulge in imagination.

Xiao Feng pursed his lips and replied, "Not bad; the lowest of my affinities is 97%, the rest are 98% and 99%."

Xiao Feng pursed his lips and replied: "Not bad; the lowest level is 97, the rest are 98 and 99."

Upon hearing that, her expression froze.

Her gaze toward Xiao Feng shifted from gentle to shocked, and then from shocked to incredulous.

"99% affinity? Master, you're not joking, are you……"

He Er Na exclaimed in surprise.

While speaking, she immediately released a soundproof Spiritual Barrier, fearing others might hear.

Xiao Feng shrugged, "Indeed. Fire and Lightning are both 99%, Wind and Water are 98%, Earth is 97%."

It's clearly written on the divine embryo; there's no falseness.

Earlier he had examined his own divine embryo and knew his affinity was very high.

But he had never thought it was anything special; at most, he understood it conventionally as allowing him to release larger-scale magic.

However, as a player using skills, each time he activated them, the 【Weather Control】 talent's expansion kicked in, making the skills inherently enormous.

Thus he never paid attention to this.

In fact, if he used his self-researched skills, such as "Fireball Technique", he could control the size himself.

At minimum he could compress it to the size of a ping-pong ball; normally it would be fist-sized.

And when enlarged, he could likewise gather a fireball over three meters in diameter.

However, the larger the volume, the longer the charging time needed, and the damage remains unaffected, making it worthless.

That's why Xiao Feng has never used this affinity ability.

At this moment, seeing He Er Na so shocked, he couldn't help but ask, "My aptitude…… could it have some special meaning?"

Seeing He Er Na so shocked, Xiao Feng couldn't help but ask: "My aptitude…… could it have some special meaning?"

He Er Na gave a bitter laugh.

She then replied, "That's natural. Those with elemental affinity over 98% almost certainly become Main Gods. Over 99% even have a chance to impact the God King Realm. And 100% has never appeared so far; perhaps it could become the legendary 'Elemental Sovereign', a Primordial Ancestor God."

He immediately replied: "That's natural. Those with an elemental affinity over 98% are almost certain to become a main god; those over 99% even have a chance to assault the God King Realm; and those with 100% have never appeared so far, perhaps they could become the legendary 'Elemental Sovereign' and become a Primordial Ancestor god."

Xiao Feng's mouth corner twitched.

In other words, this thing is a benchmark for aptitude, used to measure the future level cap.

If a player's aptitude is not good enough, they might get stuck at level 500 or even 300, unable to break through their realm.

Those with high affinity, however, face little difficulty in breaking through and can continue to improve more smoothly.

His affinity for all five elements is high, which is good news.

But after all, it merely means the future path can be taken a bit farther.

For the present, there is no visible benefit.

Xiao Feng thought of a problem.

He said: "So, is it because my affinity is high that I gained the Weather Control talent after my class change, or is it because after becoming a weather mage I obtained this talent, thereby gaining such high affinity?"

He Er Na gave a wry smile and said: "I don't know either. Although affinity is mostly innate, sometimes postnatal changes can also play a big role. Master, your aptitude is so good that you don't need to think too much; just realize your potential is limitless."

Hmm...

Xiao Feng nodded.

He glanced again at the document in his hand and said: "In that case, I have to make a trip to Mechanism Island. If that place favors those with high affinity for the five elements, like the Weather God, then going there might earn me better rewards."
