Catastrophe Card King
Chapter 1775 - 539: Promotion to Tier 8
Above the Seventh Rank belongs to the domain of top-tier card masters.
Every major rank advancement beyond this point could stand as a lofty threshold that many talented card masters might spend a lifetime trying to overcome.
However, for Leonard Churchill, the chance to break through the Eighth Rank seemed to come too easily.
Because he acquired the Divine Fire Cultivation Secret Method of "My Heart is the Universe" from Emperor Lanlingster, his Divine Power stepped onto a new level. This also quietly resolved the greatest mutation risk of Secondary Demonic Dissolution at the Eighth Rank.
The threshold for promotion seemed to vanish all at once.
This is the advantage of a sequence-specific inheritance; bypassing detours, as the cultivation methods are almost all aimed at these extraordinary bottlenecks. šš§šš®š¬šš«ššøšæš®š.š¬š¤š¶
The Emperorās Secret Method is, of course, a top-notch secret method.
With Griffithās guidance as a Ninth Order, itās almost infallible.
Moreover, the Imperial Mausoleum Castle just happened to have an ultra-long-range communicator, so Leonard Churchill contacted Catherine Carterās Alliance Army to gauge the urgency of the intelligence; learning that it was not urgent, he was not in a rush to head over.
Just as Master Merlin has also crafted that perfect Profession Card, and the conditions were almost met, Leonard Churchill planned to try for a promotion first.
...
On this day, in the secret chamber.
Leonard Churchill received that Profession Card shimmering with dark gold luster, a look of anticipation in his eyes.
[Dragon Ā· Unrivaled National Hero]
Quality: Epic
Description: Eighth Order occupation card of the āDiamond J - National Scholarā path; fused with a custom template of the Dragon Descendant featuring the extraordinary traits of Pureblood Giant Dragons;
Detailed Explanation: Fusion of this Profession Card requires strength, physique not less than 1400, wisdom attributes not less than 300, S-affinity in Dragon Language Magic, A-affinity in Thunder Element; endurance rating of Dragon Bloodline A+; after fusion, significant growth in affinity for Thunder Element; after fusion, gain āNational Scholar - The Triad of Forcesā, acquiring 33% growth in physical full attributes, 33% in wisdom-related attributes, and 33% in magic element attributes, followed by high continuous growth limits in three directions; gain the entries āTrue Dragonās Mightā, āMagic Immunity of Dragonsā, āThunder Controllerā... related abilities; receive a boost from āWar Life Patternā, war law affinity +100%, āGiant Dragonās Mightā rank enhancement, Divine Power +22%, Permanent Understanding +1;
The main material of this Profession Card is a Pureblood Giant Dragon, which lends many of the Giant Dragonās innate High-Level Beings abilities, such as Dragonās Might, Magic Immunity, and Element Affinity.
Moreover, [Diamond J - National Scholar] sequence also thoroughly follows wisdom, body, and element triad cultivation.
It perfectly matches the cunning, giant strength, and magic triad growth directions of the Giant Dragons.
Even Master Merlin mentioned that Giant Dragons are almost the most suitable material for this sequence, let alone one with Divine Material inherited from the Dragon God Airel in its bloodline.
It is because of such perfect materials that he managed to refine a Profession Card with freakishly extraordinary traits.
In the secret room, besides Leonard Churchill, there were also Griffith and Camilla.
Upon seeing this card, even Griffith, a Ninth Order, found it incredible, and could not help but remark, "Itās also because of you, Leonard... otherwise, if it were someone else, fusing this Profession Card would almost certainly lead to 100% mutation. The fusion conditions for this card are too demanding, even I have never heard of them..."
Material potency isnāt always better.
Itās rather about being suitably compatible with the card masterās physique.
Otherwise, it results in a situation akin to a snake swallowing an elephant, commonly leading to mutations and bursting apart.
Usually, Eighth Order doesnāt require "Epic-level Material", much less top-notch materials like those from the Pure-blood Dragon Clan.
But Leonard Churchill not only used them but also included Lord-level Legendary Materials such as [golden skeletons of the Undead Griffin] and [lingering ashes of the soul fire of the Arcane Skeleton King Radon].
If not witnessed with his own eyes, Griffith really wouldnāt believe that an Eighth Order card master could fuse such an unbelievable Profession Card.
But after expressing her amazement, she thought about the [JOKER] sequence of Emperor Lanlingster, and it seemed plausible.
Meanwhile, Camilla, observing silently, couldnāt hide the astonishment in her eyes.
She knew Leonard Churchill earlier than anyone else.
Having observed Leonard Churchill becoming stronger step by step up to this point, she wasnāt surprised by every shocking advancement he made.
Leonard Churchill chuckled in response: "Then Iāll entrust this to you two."
Though the castle was sufficiently safe, having people guard him ensured that any accidents during the advance process could be handled promptly.
Leonard Churchill did not delay further; a Demon Godās Phantom momentarily appeared behind him, and after infusing Curse Power, the extraordinary traits of the Profession Card gradually decoded.
Simultaneously, he murmured softly: "JOKER... Second Dissolution!"
In an instant, the Clown Illusion seemed to come to life, its faceās red, white, and blue colors becoming even more exotic, its gaze filled with a mischievous smirk, staring at Leonard Churchill, conveying a restless and dangerous aura.
The essence of "Demonic Solution" is to channel the Demonās Power for oneās own use.
Leonard Churchill comprehended Demonic Solution at the Second Tier.
The sensation was like observing the extraordinary power within his own body directed towards a Demon God from behind the bars of a prison, receiving the Demon Godās recognition and gaining the sequenceās power.
The Demon Mark card acted like the bars, providing protection.
While "Secondary Demonic Dissolution" is akin to the card master stepping into the cage, without bars, facing that Demon God directly.
The difficulty in advancing to the Eighth Rank lies here.
Although the Demon Mark still confines the Divine Power of the Demon God from causing disruption, you also need to withstand the terrifying extraordinary power infused by the Demon God.
And "Divine Power" at this moment serves as the most crucial factor anchoring the flesh and the soul.
The moment of anomaly in the Clown Illusion, Leonard Churchillās invisible aura also suddenly erupted, seemingly suppressing the Demon Godās Power that was about to go out of control instantly.
