Chapter 426: Chapter 297: Epic Three Stars, Ashen Silence King's Bone (6K)_3
Mu Yuan took precautions.
On one hand, he thoroughly investigated the conditions of the surrounding territories, prepared to uproot several large monster tribes immediately as long as there were no concerns from behind.
The second hand continued to push southward, in the hope of finding clues related to the Pioneer Group or Tai Xuan explorers one day.
Besides that, it was about strengthening the combat power of his territory as much as possible.
Duo Lai might not be able to become a legend overnight, but if Tianyuan Territory\'s combined strength increased, they might be able to stand against a legend head-on.
It was time to see your limits, Evolution Points.
Lord Shepherd\'s gaze turned to a certain area of the Skeleton Cemetery, where upon the altar sat a robust figure.
He pointed a finger.
Miracle Power spread.
\'Prompt: Your troop "Bone Twenty-three" has evolved into the Epic Life "Skeleton Lord".\'
Within the Skeleton Series, Mu Yuan did not evolve them in numerical order according to their names. He did it based on their contributions.
As time passed, these Little Skeletons, which used to be indistinguishable in a single mirror, have now developed their own styles, habits, and talents—though not to say they\'ve changed drastically.
They were all old skeletons now, having awakened their consciousness for over half a year.
Bone Twenty-three was among the best of these old skeletons.
However, even if one discounted the commanders like Dead Bone, Bone Two Bone Three Bone Four, the number of Skeleton Lords in Tianyuan Territory had now risen to eleven.
There were also six Ghost Leaders.
These Skeleton Lords and Ghost Leaders, many still in the early third-order stage, could only struggle against weaker Fourth-order Bosses at their full strength and were not considered strong.
But the territory projection of the Skeleton Lords could easily resonate, and when they \'combined\' with Dead Bone, the power they unleashed was beyond even Mu Yuan\'s imagination.
Furthermore,
"Not counting Seventeen, the Arrow of Polar Star has also increased to 5 members; three Fearless War Handsome have been born recently; five Saints of Holy Light have been born."
"Two more Lord Treeman have appeared than before, and with more Nature Spirits evolving, four more have appeared, totaling now seven."
"And one more Lord of Frost, one more Wings of the Wind King."
Tianyuan Territory could be described as Epic rain; although the level of the vast majority of Epic Lives was not high enough, some hadn\'t even broken through the Third-order Warlord level.
They could only be seen as having potential for the future."
"Evolving an Epic is very simple for me, and for major series like the Dead Bone Series and Human Race Series, gathering enough in two days is sufficient."
"However, to evolve an Epic Two Stars, I need to save up for eight days, and to evolve an Epic Three Stars, I need to save for thirty-two days."
A full thirty-two days.
And this had to be done while skimping on Evolution Points and not evolving any Elites.
Quite a long time indeed.
At first glance, the benefit of evolving into Epic Two Stars or Epic Three Stars seems low.
After evolving, it is impossible for Isloa to fight against four of her former selves. The same is nearly true for Dead Bone and Duo Lai. Oh, Duo Lai\'s evolutionary benefit is greater, as it doesn\'t see much regular improvement; it relies on a big surge during evolution.
But in fact, this isn\'t the correct perspective.
Great generals like Dead Bone, Duo Lai, and Isloa are limited in number across the entire territory.
The biggest difference between Epic One Stars and Epic Two Stars lies in their potential. Yet, it is only when an Epic Life steps into the Legendary Realm, realizing its potential, that the difference between the two becomes visible.
Moreover, most of the territory\'s elite levels are quite far behind the first tier, so evolving them to Epic doesn\'t significantly boost overall strength.
"So Dead Bone, it\'s time for you to evolve."
Mu Yuan said so.
...
To the west of Tianyuan Territory, deep within the Skeleton Cemetery,
Mu Yuan made thorough arrangements.
He turned on the Domain Interferer at full power, and simultaneously handed the Concealed Pearl to Dead Bone.
Dead Bone extended a hand, gently pressing it on the ground.
Countless spikes of white bone erupted from beneath the earth, spread out and interwoven, creating a nest in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, the formless King\'s Might diffused. Although it was a form of coercion, it was manipulated and shaped as if it were tangible material, covering the nest.
This was Dead Bone\'s preparation for itself.
Bone Seal! Bone Boundary!
On this boundary, it used sixteen auxiliary skills for solidification, reinforcement.
Only then did it nod slightly.
"This should be enough."
Off in the distance, Isloa widened her eyes. "There\'s no need to prepare so much!"
It made it look like a gigantic burial mound.
But she glanced around and found that the gigantic burial mound was quite fitting for the setting.
Mu Yuan checked the time, 00:00 had arrived.
So let\'s begin.
\'Ding~!\'
Evo-power flowed like water released from an open sluice gate, like a great river, like a flood, pouring towards the seemingly minuscule Dead Bone.
A single small step forward in life\'s evolution requires a number of favorable circumstances and sufficient time.
And the leap of an Epic Life requires countless small steps accumulated together.
Strong individuals ascend to the Legendary Soul Realm, the Legendary Skill Realm, refining their bodies through multiple breakthroughs, amidst numerous opportunities and fate, finally taking that one step forward into Epic.
But Dead Bone\'s target was Epic Three Stars.
And yet, far beyond just Epic Three Stars.
Hum— Hum— Hum—!
