My Apocalypse Territory

Transcendent Second Tier, Tang Yu had understood much from the books before.

Nancy's breakthrough enriched this information.

Not to mention, Nancy wasn't wearing her usual battle gear, which was just perfect.

Wrapped in the Annihilation Wind, even a Divine Weapon would turn into dust. Even if you have high-end Equipment capable of resisting the Annihilation Wind, a Transcendent Second Tier who hasn't experienced the full Calamity couldn't exert the full power of a Transcendent Second Tier.

"This is experience talking, I must jot this down in my notebook."

"But if there's no Companion Equipment or soul equipment, wouldn't a Second Tier, after surviving the ordeal, have to emerge naked? After all, under the Annihilation Wind, Storage Equipment would also be destroyed."

"Another thing, we must build a Cultivation site that can facilitate breakthrough and seal the momentum."

The shoddy "Pure Source Power Pool" had already been unable to withstand the force Nancy's breakthrough brought. That was even before the Calamity descended. If the Annihilation Wind appeared within the Source Power Pool, he feared the cost of the Source Crystals for repairs would be astronomical.

Maybe it was time to renovate the first Cultivation Holy Land, Tang Yu added this plan to his schedule.

Looking at Nancy again, she was barefooted on the ground.

Seeing the mess around her, she shrank her neck.

"Ah!"

She clenched her fist lightly, power gathering.

A small dark purple sphere floated above the palm of her hand, the energy within made Tang Yu's eyelids twitch.

After her breakthrough, Nancy seemed to have gotten a new toy that she was constantly trying out.

She held the Calamity Greatsword, slightly exerting force on her right arm.

Zzzt—

A wound several centimeters long was cut open and recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Several droplets of crimson blood fell.

Landing on the cracked ground.

In an instant,

A delicate young grass under the crack rapidly grew, reaching ankle height in the blink of an eye, and soon reached knee height before gradually slowing its growth.

Even though it was just an ordinary weed, the effect was incredibly astonishing.

Tang Yu widened his eyes and took another look at Nancy… Feeling like she could be used for medicine.

Iron pot stew Nancy?

Nancy seemed to have a similar idea, wielding the Calamity Greatsword and gesturing continuously on her arm. Suddenly she turned her head and asked, "Lord, if I chop off a piece, could I make a Divine Weapon? It can recover anyway."

The more she thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, holding the greatsword as if ready to chop.

Tang Yu was exasperated.

He hurriedly stopped her.

There are three different paths for Transcendent Second Tier, taking the path of the physical body indeed allows for easy limb regeneration, even if only a small piece of flesh remains, one can be completely restored. Those of higher realms could even achieve Blood Rebirth.

But there is a price to pay.

Restoring oneself consumes Prime Energy, vitality, and even potential.

Even for a genius with more than seven cores, after years of battle, continuously using their foundation for recovery without supplementation could almost sever their path forward.

…

At this moment,

Far across the ocean.

The Purcell Royal Family was hosting a banquet for visiting transcendent forces from several factions.

Ancient Spirit, Warrendo, Hero Club, Myriad Buddha Valley… a total of eleven Transcendents from the Four Great Holy Lands came, more than those who visited during the Green Shadow Ceremony, and they held even higher ranks, all led by Senior Transcendents.

Many of them, because of their gains in the Holy City, had gathered three Source Power Cores and were ready to attempt a fusion breakthrough… As for gathering more Source Power Cores, the dream of most Transcendents, at most, involved four or five cores, and that only in dreams unless another opportunity like the Holy City came up.

Besides this, there were also various Freelance Transcendents from the Fourth Epoch, humans from the Fifth Epoch, and transcendent forces from various regions, continuously producing dazzling talents breaking into transcendence.

Around twenty to thirty Transcendents, sitting upright with grave expressions.

In front,

Whoosh~

A breeze blew.

The Source Qi lingered.

Numerous particles converged from all directions, eventually forming a human silhouette in light.

The silhouette solidified, revealing the appearance of Purcell II Gulete.

A faint power pressure was released.

The Transcendents were solemn.

A Second Tier Expert, truly terrifying!

...

Aino Continent, Royal Capital.

Duke Morton Mansion.

"Have you found out?"

"Yes, Duke, the noble backing the Entertainment City is none other than Frost White Count, and he has also sponsored the Wing Corps."

"Is it him? Indeed, Frost White has always been ambitious, and he has always advocated for exploring the outside world."

Duke Morton tapped his fingers gently on the table.

Among the many counts in the Royal Capital, Frost White Count's strength and heritage were top-notch, rivaling even some of the weaker marquises.

But he was no match for Morton.

However,

after failing to suppress the Green Shadow Entertainment City, Duke Morton had become more cautious, reluctant to act rashly.

The previous failure had nearly turned him into a laughingstock among the upper nobility.

Should there be another mishap, not only would it be impossible for him to save face, but the prestige of Duke Morton Mansion would also suffer significantly.

"Keep investigating. Now that the Royal Family is considering disbanding the Wing Corps, yet he is sponsoring them at this time, it could be some sort of scheme."

"My lord, could it be that Frost White Count intends to woo the commander of the Wing Corps? After all, among all the army's Transcendents in the Royal Capital, only that person might be persuadable," said a confidant.

Duke Morton shook his head, "Zabol? Just a Transcendent promoted a few decades ago, on the other hand, Entertainment City is guarded by a Senior Transcendent... Either Frost White Count has hidden his strength deep, or perhaps there are other forces at play."

He then asked, "What about the others? Any recent movements?"

"Several nobles seem to be planning to collaborate with Entertainment City, but there's a large influx of people there, making it hard to determine the exact number working with Entertainment City... Or rather, Frost White Count. As for Frost White Count's backer, Marquis Kutch seems quite quiet."

The room in Duke Mansion fell silent again.

...

Meanwhile,

Frost White Count's Mansion.

Representative of the ambitious and powerful younger generation, a Count dreaming of evolving his family into becoming Frost White Marquis, Frost White Duke, now paced back and forth in his residence, somewhat agitated.

In the Count's Mansion, aside from himself—with less than two hundred years of age, having reached the Senior Transcendent Realm, known as "Frost White Sword Saint"—there were his uncle and another Transcendent Sacrificial Officer.

Three revered beings.

Compared to some counts who lacked even a simple Transcendent, the strength of Frost White Count's Mansion was quite formidable.

However,

Frost White Count glanced outside with a bittersweet smile.

A few days ago, two mysterious figures had broken into the mansion, injuring his uncle and the other Transcendent Sacrificial Officer with a single move.

Even when he had taken action himself, he couldn't withstand more than three moves.

Pain throbbed in his chest.

"I know all the Transcendents in the Royal Capital; where in the world did those two come from! They were like monsters!"

Frost White Count was furious.

To outsiders, he was the hidden supporter of Green Shadow Entertainment City, but little did they know, he was coerced!

Unless he used his last resort, was there a chance... for a desperate fight?

Yet Frost White Count was immensely conflicted... because in just a few days, he had already tasted some benefits from being the secret supporter of the Entertainment City, and he was unwilling to give it up.

At that moment,

a youth Transcendent, skinny and unremarkable in appearance, appeared before him like a specter.

Frost White Count was startled and on guard when he heard the youth say, "Our boss, intends to meet with you."

The count was shocked, his gaze going beyond the youth to discover two figures slowly approaching.
