Chapter 159

Afterwards, everyone returned to their rooms, and the fortress regained its calm, though each person's heart now held an added anticipation and wariness toward the unknown.

When Li Qingxuan lay on the bed, the panel suddenly popped up, indicating that the awakening ability had succeeded; Li Qingxuan hurriedly opened his personal attribute panel.

【Name: Li Qingxuan】

【Age: 24】

【Gender: Male】

【Constitution: 1240】

【Spirit: 924】（Adult average value is 5）

【Occupation: Weird Master】

【Ability: Weird Encyclopedia, Domination, Devour Evolution, Soul Arrow, Weird Divine Realm】

【Evaluation: A Weird Master who honed his edge in Blood Fire, with a lingering youthful air in his brows; if he stops climbing, the abyss's gaze will become his eternal shackles.】

Li Qingxuan saw that he had gained an additional Weird Divine Realm ability, and hurriedly opened it to check.

【Ability: Weird Divine Realm】

【Description: A growth-type domain skill, the ultimate manifestation of the Weird Master's authority, unfolding a domain with one's own will as the core. Within the divine realm, I am the rule, I am the sovereign. The effects, range, and rule strength of this domain are gradually unlocked and enhanced as the user's Spirit attribute increases.】

【Ability Level and Effects:】

First Stage: Domain Prototype

Unlock Condition: Spirit ≥ 500

Domain Range: Radius 50 meters

Core Effect: Dominion Aura: All dominated Weird Creatures have all attributes increased by 30% and gain combat instinct enhancement.

Second Stage: Rule Domain

Unlock Condition: Spirit ≥ 1000

Domain Range: Radius 200 meters

Domain Range: Radius 1 kilometer (can adjust shape at will)

Core Effect: Rule Making: The user can establish 1-3 temporary rules within the domain. Rules are compulsory for units with Spirit attribute lower than the user's, and cause strong interference for units with higher Spirit attribute.

Example Rule: 【Life Drain】-All enemy units lose 1% of their maximum Life per second, used to heal friendly units.

Example Rule: 【Weird Frenzy】-All dominated Weird Creatures have their attack speed increased by 50%.

Fourth Stage: Primordial Domain

Domain Range: Conceptual existence (can cover reality, or invade others' Spirit world)

【Core Effect: Weird Assimilation: Can launch 【Assimilation】 against powerful enemies, with a chance to temporarily transform them into Weird Creatures under one's control. Success rate based on the difference in Spirit attributes between both sides】

Li Qingxuan looked at this detailed description, his mind shaken; the Weird Divine Realm ability is simply overwhelming beyond imagination. Especially the Primordial Domain of the fourth stage, its conceptual existence range, and the core effect of Weird Assimilation—if used properly, it can absolutely play a huge role in battle.

He began to ponder; his current Spirit attribute is 924, already meeting the requirement of 500 Spirit for the first stage's Domain Prototype, but the gap to the second stage's required 1000 Spirit is not large.

It seems I need to find a way to increase my Spirit attribute; only then can I unlock more powerful effects and let this Weird Divine Realm truly exert its might.

Li Qingxuan was thinking when a light Knocking Sound came from outside the door; he came to his senses and said, "Please come in."

The door was pushed open, and Li Qingge entered; she looked at Li Qingxuan, her eyes holding a hint of curiosity and concern, asking, "Brother, how are you now? Nothing wrong? Why have you been staring at the Control Panel?"

"Not only am I fine, the panel just notified me that I have awakened the Weird Divine Realm ability." Li Qingxuan said excitedly.

"Is the Weird Divine Realm ability you just awakened powerful?" Li Qingge asked curiously.

Li Qingxuan smiled and nodded, saying, "Yeah, it's powerful. This is a growth-type domain skill; as my Spirit attribute increases, it will unlock different effects and ranges. However, I have only just awakened, so many abilities are still unusable."

Li Qingge's eyes sparkled as she said, "Then Brother Qingxuan, quickly tell us what those already-unlocked effects are like."

Li Qingxuan then gave Li Qingge a detailed explanation of the Dominion Aura effect of the first stage's Domain Prototype, as well as the effect on non-friendly units entering the domain in the second stage.

After listening, Li Qingge exclaimed in amazement, "Wow, that's too powerful! In the future, Brother Qingxuan, when you unfold this domain, the Weird Creatures under our domination in Guangtan Fortress will become stronger, while enemies entering the domain will fall into fear and be unable to teleport or blink—this is practically invincible!"

Li Qingxuan rubbed Li Qingge's head and said, "That's not quite right; although this ability is powerful, it certainly has its limits and weaknesses. Moreover, my Spirit attribute is still not high enough, so many effects remain locked. Therefore, I need to work hard to increase my Spirit attribute."

Li Qingge nodded firmly, saying, "Yeah, Brother Qingxuan, you can definitely do it; I'll also train hard and not hold you back. If enemies come in the future, I'll fight side by side with you."

Li Qingxuan looked at Li Qingge's determined expression, his heart full of relief, and said, "Good, we'll work together; no matter what difficulties we face in the future, we'll be able to confront them together."

The two chatted a while longer, then Li Qingge left the room.

Li Qingxuan lay back down on the bed, continuously recalling the effects of his new ability in his mind; as time passed, he gradually drifted into sleep.

In the dream, he unleashed the mighty Weird Divine Realm, becoming the sovereign of all existence, leading the maidens forward continuously in a world filled with danger and opportunity.

When the first ray of morning sunlight streamed through the window onto his face, Li Qingxuan slowly woke from his sleep; the dream scene remained vivid in his mind, and that overwhelming sense of sovereign power made his heart surge.

He sat up, stretched, feeling the still-abundant power within his body, and a new day thus began.

After Li Qingxuan finished washing up and went downstairs, at that moment the maidens were already in the hall; seeing him come down, they all cast concerned glances his way.

Wang Hongmei smiled and said, "Junior Brother Qingxuan, how did you sleep last night? You look full of spirit."

Li Qingxuan smiled and replied, "I slept quite well, and I had a very interesting dream."

Chen Xiulan teased from the side, "Did you dream of becoming a great superhero?"

Li Qingxuan laughed heartily and said, "Actually, pretty close—I dreamed I unleashed the Weird Divine Realm and led you all in a slaughter in all directions."
