Eternal Power

Biodata

Core Effect

Eternal Power converts temporary buffs received by friendly units within Cao Xing's territory into permanent effects. Its first recorded activation transformed Cao Xing's Ice Healing Technique into permanent health regeneration for Dazhuang. 4

Permanent Status Conversion

• Converts temporary healing-over-time effects into permanent regeneration. Dazhuang retained the healing effect after Ice Healing Technique was cast. 4
• Converts temporary defensive effects into persistent protection, including regenerating lightning shields and the Blessing of the Wind God shield. 175 332
• Converts temporary movement effects into permanent states, such as Wind Wings flight and its movement-speed increase. 335
• Makes temporary potion enhancements permanent, including increases to attributes, attack speed, movement speed, resistance, and sensory ability. 696 804
• Can permanently preserve temporary weapon effects, such as Sarah's Death Approaches state after she accumulated Soul Points. 489

Form and State Preservation

Eternal Power can make transformation-based and stance-based status skills permanent while allowing the user to enter or exit those states at will.

• Andrew's Astral Communication can remain active throughout his Owl Beast Form. 129
• Andrew's Ancient Tree Form became a permanent state with instant activation and switching and no cooldown. 190
• Cao Xing's Advanced Demon Transformation gained permanent flight and disguise effects; the form's attribute bonus also increased from 50 to 100 after further development. 305
• Cao Xing's Otherworldly Ghost disguise resisted the Holy Light Codex's dispelling effect because it had been reinforced by Eternal Power. 335
• Marlenina's near-death-triggered Legendary Valkyrie form became permanent after consuming 500 Divine Power Value. 607
• Marlenina's Demigod Form likewise became permanent after its initial activation consumed 5,000 Divine Power Value. 788

Mass Enhancement

Eternal Power allows Cao Xing to permanently scale entire groups through allied buffs.

• Bron received more than ten simultaneous buffs, raising his defense, attack, and speed enough to contend with elite creatures of the same level and withstand boss-level creatures of his tier. The talent was described as capable of allowing an ordinary creature to fight two tiers above its own. 119
• Talen Rockwhisper's Rock Barrier permanently increased city-wall armor by 400 and durability by 40,000; the effect remains until the barrier or the wall section is destroyed. 321
• Cao Xing identified the potential to grant every territory member permanent flight through Wind Wings. 332
• The Dragon Shaman recognized that Eternal Power could apply Lightning Dragon Possession to everyone and make it permanent. 459
• The complete Holy Light Codex's Prelude of Light set effect became a permanent 40-point light-damage bonus for allied attacks. 538
• Holy Scripture Manifestation: Light Forged Armament can provide Legendary-grade allies with Light-Forged Armor after consuming 200 Divine Power. 992

Death Prevention and Recovery

• Holy Light Redemption became a permanent state after being cast on Cao Xing. When triggered by a fatal attack, it retains 1 Health and restores 20% Health; under Eternal Power, it can trigger once every five minutes. 135
• The permanent Blessing of the Wind God shield regenerates 120 seconds after it is shattered. 332
• The Dark Crystal's revival effect can be combined with Cao Xing's permanent Demon Transformation state, restoring him to full health once if killed while transformed. 305

Documented Applications

Limitations

• Eternal Power preserves a status after it is successfully applied; it does not necessarily remove the original activation requirement. Marlenina's Legendary and Demigod forms first required 500 and 5,000 Divine Power Value respectively. 607 788
• Permanent status effects can retain activation restrictions or trigger intervals. Holy Light Redemption, for example, can only trigger once every five minutes. 135
• Equipment-derived permanent effects end if the relevant equipment is unequipped or unbound. 861
• Status-skill bonuses are subject to a carrying-cap limit: units below Legendary Grade can receive at most 400,000 additional Attack Power, while Legendary units below Demigod Level can receive at most 3,000,000. 868
• A permanent barrier can still be destroyed. Talen's Rock Barrier must be repaired with Magic Power after taking damage, and its effect disappears if both it and the underlying wall section are shattered. 321
