rit points, aside from being used to create or enhance weapons and equipnt, could also be used for complete transformation, much like the power of Supre Demon Blood. When one possesses such a substance, in their native world, they could even beco an immortal Supre Demon with all the sa characteristics.
Other materials could also strengthen oneself without any side effects, a transformation that was more worthwhile for the Dusk rcenaries to pursue than equipnt enhancent or creation. However, this required even more rit points to achieve.
They could also use more rit points to further ’digest’ the Supre Demon Blood, disregarding the native immortality of their world’s Supre Demons, as long as they had the power.
Such immortality only functioned in their native world, yet including that aspect would nearly double the consumption of rit points, without any difference in combat strength, and it could even beco a limitation.
As Dusk rcenaries, they should not confine themselves to their native world.
"Actually, this ti there was a very formidable Dusk rcenary leading the team, but they underestimated the power of Oaths in this world and died," Qi Xiangyun said with so regret, as that capable Dusk rcenary team had almost destroyed the Boundary Breakers’ stronghold.
They didn’t need to kill all the Boundary Breakers, just eradicate the problem.
Before the Boundary Breakers’ constructs in their native world fully took shape, they were still in a relatively fragile state, and destroying them ant ruining years or even decades of the Boundary Breakers’ efforts.
"Now, soone even more formidable has co to lead the team." Zheng Yichen looked ahead, once again harnessing the power of Oaths. His independent Oath Power differed from that of the native Oath Keepers. He had made an Oath that wouldn’t grant him significant power within its range, instead, he had to accumulate Oath Power after triggering an Oath.
Once used, it would continuously deplete, and even if it wasn’t used up, it would vanish after the battle concluded.
An Oath could only retain one at a ti, but its flexibility was its advantage. Through the power of Oaths, he made a new Oath.
-- He must not act against any normal being or enemy, only when fighting against a threat to this world would he beco stronger.
Oath Power cos with conditions and costs.
Just like what Qi Xiangyun previously ntioned about a native Oath Keeper who only had strength for three minutes a day, and that strength could only be used against national enemies. If the opponent was not a national enemy, the Oath Keeper’s Oath Power would not be triggered; that was the condition.
Of course, one could choose more lenient conditions, but the resulting Oath Power would not be as strong.
For Zheng Yichen, this was immaterial, as the power brought by the Oath Power was just an auxiliary. He considered it a bonus power.
The Oath he had just made would not affect him at all. He could still engage in normal combat as long as he didn’t use the Oath Power, but that also ant he wouldn’t accumulate any Oath Power.
He had a lot of options. Using the Oath Power independently of himself was like assigning missions to himself.
It felt sowhat idealistic, assigning missions to oneself that, if completed, could accumulate conviction. But if any rules were broken, that accumulated conviction would shatter, resulting in the accrued amount disappearing.
In any case, without using Oath Power, he wouldn’t be constrained by the current Oath, but using it during battle would rapidly accumulate Oath Power, aning that within the range of the Oath he could not do anything that contravened the Oath’s conditions.
He must not attack any being that does not threaten the world, even if they are enemies. Of course, microorganisms and small insects were not included in this, and Zheng Yichen could choose to add them, but such a condition would be too strict.
Perhaps it could lead to a super-fast accumulation of Oath Power, but the speed of breaking the Oath would be fast as well.
This power not to say was wholly at his discretion, but he was also the rule-maker. Once he set down the rules, he too had to operate within their scope.
For the upcoming fight against the Boundary Breakers, using Oath Power throughout posed no issue, and the Oath’s conditions mattered even less. The Boundary Breakers were inherently a threat to this world, and any existence that hindered his battle against the Boundary Breakers was a threat to the world.
It would be no problem to eliminate them all!
There was no need for explanations. Those who opposed the savior were inevitably the world’s enemies, even if the other side was a savior from another world.
"Co on--" In Zheng Yichen’s eyes, the pale chains of the Oath’s marks reappeared. As he advanced towards the Boundary Breakers’ stronghold, he felt the power of the Oath in effect, starting to accumulate Oath Power, albeit slowly.
At the current rate, by the ti he reached the Boundary Breakers’ fortress, the accumulated Oath Power could be released, potentially enhancing the strength of his full-powered strike by... one-thousandth?
It’s understandable; he’s only charging at the existence that threatens this world within the scope set by the Oath Power, but he hasn’t truly confronted the existence that endangers this world. Therefore, the current accumulation of Oath Power is more like... travel expenses, rather than the formal "work".
When the real fight begins, the speed of Oath Power accumulation will increase rapidly. Not to ntion anything else, as long as it could increase the strength of one impressive attack by half, no, even by a third, it would be a qualitative leap for him.
"Once I get the hang of this power, I should be able to create new items..."
"? What’s that?" Lin Yaoyao asked curiously.
"New equipnt, of course, Oath tools made with Oath Power," Zheng Yichen explained his idea. Simply put, he wanted to create special attack tools with Oath Power, which can only be used for the purposes imbued in the Oath, but as long as power could accumulate, that’s all that mattered.
The strictness of the Oath would cause fluctuations in the speed of power accumulation, but that only affects the rate of accumulation, not the amount.
As long as there is enough ti to accumulate, even the slowest process could fill a large pond; the difference is whether the condition is a small pipe feeding water or a large one. Eventually, both can fill the pond to the sa level.
"It sounds like sothing really powerful." Lin Yaoyao touched the red jade ornant she was wearing, which felt very warm and was filled with Zheng Yichen’s aura. As for the origin of the red jade material?
Why would they mind that? In fact, knowing where it ca from, she would wear it even in the shower!
"Should be powerful, right? But I need to get used to it here first. Once I can make them, I’ll mail them over to you."
When to start making them was simple: after this matter was over, he’d return to the world of magic and then learn from the big shots of the Dragon Tribe or the luminaries of the Luminous Divine type. If all else fails, there was still the Luminous Holy Maiden Loli, right?
Giving her a bit more candy should make her quite willing to provide extra guidance on item creation.
Speaking of the Dragon Tribe, Zheng Yichen rembered sothing.
He stopped the car, and under the puzzled gazes of the three girls, opened the motorcycle’s storage box and reached inside. Then an ’aura’ with slightly twisted edges unfolded—this was the exterior opening of the built-in space inside the half-dinsion fragnt.
Such an opening would not normally appear. However, if he needed to retrieve sothing large, it would unfold, consuming additional energy in the process. The maximum opening matched the maximum cross-sectional area of the built-in space.
Zheng Yichen took out an egg. As for the airflow problem inside the built-in space, it was not an issue at all. The motorcycle itself was connected to the built-in space and naturally served as the device for gas circulation.
If needed, Zheng Yichen could even shove the three little ones inside, turning it into a temporary refuge.
Incidentally, the edges of this kind of opening aren’t like space cracks, where one could lose a fingertip with a touch. The lightly twisting, fluctuating aura felt like touching soft rubber when one reached out, posing no actual harm upon contact.
One could even swing on it... though that would be kind of boring.
"Is this our dinner?" Lin Yaoyao looked at the egg, nearly a ter in diater, with a slightly surprised expression. But she quickly accepted it, since the world had so much variety, it seed normal for Brother Chang Qing to have obtained so creature’s egg from sowhere.
"No, no, no, this isn’t for eating." Zheng Yichen imdiately shook his head and patted the eggshell, which despite the world’s environnt not being as favorable as the world of magic, still had top-tier strength as a dragon egg.
From the feedback of his touch, most firearms wouldn’t leave any noticeable marks on it, though high-caliber guns would definitely not withstand it.
For a dragon egg shell, this was protection enough. Through thermal vision, Zheng Yichen could see a vibrant life inside, one that, even in a dormant state, far surpassed ordinary creatures.
It seed like even breaking the egg shell would not kill it. Yet Klakauska had seriously told Zheng Yichen that breaking out of the shell was an essential process in a dragon’s life. If assisted by external forces, it could lead to the young dragon being inherently deficient, or even crippled and deford.
Therefore, the young dragon inside had to break the shell on its own. But this dragon egg had already awakened its Divinity. However, it wasn’t a direct descendant of a Demigod or a True God; the dragon egg’s parents were born from who knows how many generations descended from a Divine Dragon of the Dragon Tribe.
To be awakened to Divinity before hatching ant it had a full set of talents, outperforming even the Demigod offspring of True Gods. But because it was too young and not a direct descendant of a Demigod or a True God, it lacked a solid foundation and thus had been unable to hatch normally.
Forced hatching would only ruin the dragon.
Klakauska told Zheng Yichen that the simplest way to compensate for this lack of foundation was to first kill a Demigod and then pour the Demigod’s blood on the dragon egg. This would give the egg enough ’foreign investnt’ to manage the most important event in its dragon life: hatching.
