They knew better than anyone that without the new Emperor's almost miraculous infusion of cultivation, along with him bearing most of the Lightning Tribulation for them,
they could never have survived that near-certain-death 100,000-Year Heavenly Tribulation on their own. By now, they would have long since become piles of ashes.
And because of the restrictions of their racial bloodline, the Blue Silver Clan could only have one Emperor.
Unless their cultivation surpassed Lan Lingcang's, they could not advance or replace him.
Thus, although the six of them had now reached the 100,000-year level of cultivation, their bloodlines were still King-level bloodlines.
However, while their bloodlines remained King-level, if their current combat strength were compared to Ah Yin's before she took human form,
they were undoubtedly much stronger than Ah Yin had been back then.
That was the difference between undergoing the baptism of Heavenly Tribulation lightning and not undergoing it.
For soul beasts, Heavenly Tribulations certainly brought catastrophic, devastating disasters.
But from another perspective, as long as one could endure it, the tempering and transformation of a soul beast's physical essence by the power of heavenly lightning also brought immense benefits.
Ah Yin, standing nearby, also broke through in strength because of the pure energy that had dissipated.
Her cultivation had reached level fifty-three!
Lan Lingcang waved his hand and said calmly, "Very good. The six of you are not to remain in the Ancestral Land any longer. Set out immediately and spread across the Star Dou Great Forest."
"Once you discover any human Title Douluo-level expert approaching, you must notify me through your domains at once. Understood?"
The range of his domain was vast, but it could not cover the entirety of the enormous Star Dou Great Forest.
Besides, maintaining his domain constantly was exhausting.
Now that he had subordinates, he had to put them to use so that he could slack off.
"By your command!"
The six Blue Silver Kings flashed away, each heading in a different direction and disappearing into the forest.
After they withdrew, only Lan Lingcang and Ah Yin remained.
Lan Lingcang took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and sat down cross-legged.
From Ah Yin's perspective, Lan Lingcang had probably exhausted himself too much over the past two days and needed proper rest.
However, Ah Yin did not know that Lan Lingcang was not resting because of fatigue at all.
His consciousness sank into his spiritual world.
Today, he might be able to choose three out of five Hextech options!
"System, begin," Lan Lingcang silently said to himself.
[Ding! The following are five Golden Hextech options. Host, please freely select three.] [1. Top-tier Build: Obtain one 'Bloodline Replicator,' gain one reroll, and after six years, obtain the same reward once again.] [2. Ascension: Twelve seconds after battle begins, all allied members within the domain's range gain a 35% increase to all attributes.] [3. Sunfire Board: Obtain the Sun Flame Domain, burning all enemies within the domain and continuously dealing combined damage equal to 1% of their maximum health, Soul Power, stamina, mental power, and more every minute. At the same time, their healing effects are reduced by 50%.] [4. Tears Flow Like a River: Obtain 1 'Goddess Tear.' During battle, the recovery efficiency of your Soul Power and mental power increases by 1%, increasing to 3% after twelve seconds.] [5. Investment Return: Immediately obtain one million Gold Soul Coins, then receive five hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins every year for three years.]
Looking at these five Hextech options, Lan Lingcang fell into thought as he roughly examined them all.
First, there was no need to discuss the first Hextech. It was definitely the best among the five and had to be chosen. What did he lack right now? Powerful bloodlines, of course!
The fifth was an economy-type Hextech, so it was eliminated.
To him, combat-oriented Hextech would always take priority over economy-type Hextech.
However, he needed to clarify the Bloodline Replicator and the reroll first.
"System, explain the Bloodline Replicator and the reroll."
[Bloodline Replicator: As long as the host touches the bloodline of a soul beast you wish to replicate, the replication will succeed.] [Note: Contact through the main body or through vines will both take effect.] [Besides the Bloodline Replicator, there is also the Lesser Bloodline Replicator. As its name suggests, it can also replicate bloodlines, but the bloodlines it can replicate are of lower grades.] [For specifics, the host may refer to the major classifications of human Martial Spirit quality.]
Lan Lingcang had not expected it to work like this.
According to how human Soul Masters classified Martial Spirit quality, there were Trash Martial Spirits, Low-tier Martial Spirits, Mid-tier Martial Spirits, High-tier Martial Spirits, Top-tier Martial Spirits, Super Martial Spirits, and God-level Martial Spirits.
This Lesser Bloodline Replicator could probably only replicate bloodlines below High-tier Martial Spirits, meaning Mid-tier Martial Spirits at most.
And Mid-tier Martial Spirit bloodlines would probably not be very useful to him.
At the very least, he could not think of any bloodline worth replicating with the Lesser Bloodline Replicator.
"What about the reroll?"
[In reply to the host, a reroll refers to rerolling Hextech. If the host dislikes a certain Hextech, you may use this reroll to replace it with another one.]
With that explanation, Lan Lingcang understood.
This reroll was extremely valuable!
Taken together, this first Hextech, [Top-tier Build], was simply overpowered. Its effect was even more outrageous than some Prismatic Hextech!
Lan Lingcang then looked at the second Hextech, [Ascension]. It was a fairly ordinary combat Hextech that increased all attributes, and it affected all allies within the domain's range.
The third Hextech, [Sunfire Board], would grant him a Sun Flame Domain. Its continuous damage and healing reduction were both excellent.
By coincidence, his Blue Silver Domain could also continuously absorb the enemy's Soul Power and stamina. The combined effect was unimaginable.
Therefore, [Sunfire Board] was the second Hextech he had decided to choose.
Next came the fourth Hextech, [Tears Flow Like a River]. In theory, Lan Lingcang could quickly pass on this Hextech and directly choose [Ascension].
Because of his own traits, as long as there was a large amount of Blue Silver Grass nearby, he would never lack mana.
Moreover, after breaking through to 100,000 years of cultivation, he had condensed a Soul Core within his body. The Soul Core's purpose was endurance, which conflicted with this tear.
"System, if I obtain this tear, what use does it have?"
[In reply to the host, aside from restoring mana, if the host obtains other basic equipment in the future, it can be combined with them.] [Completed equipment can provide the host with attribute bonuses, and the host may possess the attribute bonuses of three completed items at once.]
Lan Lingcang understood.
If he could obtain three suitable completed items, then without a doubt, his chances of surviving the Heavenly Tribulation would increase greatly.
However, he did not intend to choose this Hextech this time, since it was only a single tear.
He believed that he would obtain equipment-type Hextech later on!
It would be even better if he got artifact Hextech!
"System, I choose Top-tier Build, Ascension, and Sunfire Board!"
