After learning the truth behind how Junot had attained Legendary strength in such a short time, Roland was nearly dumbstruck.

What protagonist template? This was practically describing Junot.

Put simply, when Junot was ten years old, he had wandered deep into the Monster Mountain Range out of curiosity and was besieged by several magical beasts. Just as he was about to die beneath their fangs, a ball of fire descended from the sky. After killing several magical beasts, it shot directly into his body and vanished.

That ball of fire that entered Junot's body was actually a gravely wounded, dying Immortal Blazing Phoenix. To save her life, that Saint Domain level Immortal Blazing Phoenix immediately used her racial talent, Nirvana Rebirth.

What happened next was naturally simple. The Immortal Blazing Phoenix undergoing nirvana within Junot's body could only form a Soul Symbiosis Contract with him to prevent word from leaking out and drawing the covetous attention of humanity and her enemies.

If that were all, Junot could not possibly have broken through to the Saint Domain in merely a few decades. Although an Immortal Blazing Phoenix possessed greater talent than an ordinary dragon, compared to a Dragon King's son like Cassius, she was only on roughly equal footing.

The main reason Junot had broken through to the Legendary realm was the outrageously powerful skill Nirvana Rebirth. Not only could it heal all injuries, but it could also continuously increase the strength of the one undergoing nirvana. Since that severely wounded Immortal Blazing Phoenix had chosen Junot's body as the location for her nirvana, it was equivalent to Junot experiencing an entire Nirvana Rebirth from beginning to end.

Combined with Junot's own exceptional talent, that was how he had ascended to the Legendary realm before reaching a hundred years of age.
