Chapter 2934: A Deeper Level of Spell Balance
Currently, there are twelve unassigned Dao patterns. Lin Moyu had already planned how to allocate these twelve Dao patterns. Although twelve Dao patterns seem like a lot, they are not very useful when it comes to practical application. Lin Moyu is a pragmatist, and since he is going to the unknown Ice and Fire Secret Realm, he naturally needs to consider the situation there first. Having already requested a Dao Sovereign Ninth Realm corpse from the Three Ancestors, with the materials in hand, he naturally needs to enhance the [Corpse Explosion] spell to achieve the best effect. With a thought, four of the twelve Dao patterns flew towards [Corpse Explosion]. Either do nothing or do it big. Four Dao patterns are enough to elevate the [Corpse Explosion] spell by one or two levels. From the Dao Sovereign First Realm to the Ninth Realm is a significant leap, a long journey. Lin Moyu knows that his spells have reached a bottleneck; in this major realm, aside from a few summoning-type spells, other spells won't undergo qualitative changes. To continue enhancing spells, he must lead with Dao patterns. The four Dao patterns smoothly integrated into the spell star, and the spell star shone brightly, its power rapidly increasing. Moments later, the four Dao patterns returned to the soul, back to their original positions. Their appearances had changed somewhat, imbued with the characteristics of the [Corpse Explosion] spell. Lin Moyu can now directly use [Corpse Explosion] through the Dao patterns, and its effect will be stronger than before.
The thirty-six Dao patterns continuously resonate with each other. The more Dao patterns there are, the stronger the mutual amplification, and the stronger the spells that are integrated. As long as Lin Moyu continues to increase the number of Dao patterns, even without integrating more, the spells previously enhanced by Dao patterns can continue to grow stronger. Just like the five summoning spells, as the number of Dao patterns increases, they each become stronger, although the enhancement is not yet very apparent.
Lin Moyu checked the information on the [Corpse Explosion] spell.
**[Corpse Explosion (Current Level)]: Detonate a corpse or remains to deal damage equivalent to 200% of the corpse's life force to a targeted enemy. Can attack multiple targets simultaneously; the more targets, the more the damage is diluted. Attacks ignore all obstacles and time limits. Detonation time can be controlled, with a maximum duration of ten years.**
The power of [Corpse Explosion] has increased from 110% to 200%. When advancing from Heavenly Sovereign to Dao Sovereign, [Corpse Explosion]'s power only increased from 100% to 110%, a mere tenth. Now, after integrating four Dao patterns, its power has directly increased from 110% to 200%. A Dao Sovereign Ninth Realm corpse can be used by Lin Moyu to exert power beyond the Ninth Realm. Exceeding the Ninth Realm means it can harm Great Dao realm beings. This kind of enhancement is quite terrifying. The detonation time has also increased from one year to ten years, allowing for more strategic maneuvers. Although Lin Moyu has never used this feature, it's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. Lin Moyu is very satisfied with the enhancement of [Corpse Explosion]; the four Dao patterns were worth the cost!
With eight Dao patterns remaining, Lin Moyu already had targets in mind: the six Great Dao True Bodies, one Dao pattern each. Through repeated Dao pattern integration, Lin Moyu discovered a pattern. The more Dao patterns integrated into a spell, the stronger the power naturally becomes. But there are also special rules. When a spell is integrated with only one Dao pattern, the amplification isn't significant. However, with two Dao patterns, the amplification becomes particularly noticeable, greatly increasing. With three Dao patterns, the amplification exceeds that of two, but the increase is much smaller. When four Dao patterns are integrated, the amplification becomes significant again. It seems to relate to odd and even numbers; integrating an even number of Dao patterns optimizes the effect. On a deeper level, the true relationship involves the balance of yin and yang, reality and illusion.
Lin Moyu thought of the information he obtained from the God-Slaying Sect, which reminded him to maintain balance when integrating Dao patterns. Now, he has a deeper understanding of this balance. Everything must adhere to the balance of yin and yang, reality and illusion. This applies not only to multiple spells but also to individual spells. Therefore, the next six Dao patterns each have their own focus, corresponding to the six Great Dao True Bodies. Previously, each of the six Great Dao True Bodies had one Dao pattern integrated. Now, by integrating a second Dao pattern, he can achieve a balance of yin and yang, greatly increasing power. The six Dao patterns fused with the six Great Dao True Bodies, and in an instant, the soul vibrated intensely. Within the soul, the Dao patterns swapped positions. The positions of the thirty-six Dao patterns largely remained unchanged, but there were subtle shifts. The Dao patterns integrated into the same spell were positioned closely, forming independent clusters while maintaining normal connections with other Dao patterns. Of the thirty-six Dao patterns, thirty-four are now assigned...
With two remaining, Lin Moyu decided not to integrate them, keeping them in reserve for flexibility. After completing the Dao pattern integration, Lin Moyu felt a stirring in his heart and muttered, "Time to advance!"
Communicating with the Great Dao, the power of the Great Dao descended, and Lin Moyu surged to a higher level. The bottleneck of the Dao Sovereign Second Realm seemed nonexistent, and Lin Moyu easily stepped into the Dao Sovereign Second Realm. The Dao Sovereign Second Realm, compared to the First Realm, saw a significant increase in power. Lin Moyu could feel his power multiplying. This increase was mainly in soul power, allowing him to mobilize more of the Great Dao's power. More Great Dao power meant enhanced spell power. The difference in soul power between the Dao Sovereign First and Second Realms was more than double. The spells' foundations hadn't changed, but influenced by soul power and Great Dao power, their power doubled.
For Lin Moyu, the impact on other spells wasn't significant, but the greatest impact was on summoning spells. Upon reaching the Dao Sovereign Second Realm, the Skeleton Generals had already reached the Dao Sovereign Third Realm. The strongest Skeleton King had reached the Dao Sovereign Fourth Realm. Dao patterns can continue to be condensed; once eighteen more Dao patterns are condensed, reaching fifty-four, he will advance to the Dao Sovereign Third Realm.
Half a day later, Lin Moyu opened the secret chamber door and walked out. Lu Lian was already waiting outside and immediately asked, "Mr. Lin, when did the Three Ancestors say you could set off?"
Lin Moyu said, "As soon as the Three Ancestors have everything ready, I can set off at any time."
He was referring to the Dao Sovereign Ninth Realm corpse. Lu Lian understood, "It's already prepared. In that case, how about setting off in five days?"
Lin Moyu was puzzled, "Weren't the Three Ancestors in a hurry? Why set it for five days later?"
Lu Lian said, "Even if the Three Ancestors are in a hurry, five days won't make a difference. We're heading to the Northern Continent, which is the territory of the demon race, so we need to make some preparations."
"In five days, our No. 4 Hurricane Warship will set sail for the demon race. You can go to the Northern Continent with the Hurricane Warship."
"Once you reach the Northern Continent, someone will be there to meet you."
Lin Moyu said, "It seems the Three Ancestors have influence in the demon race's territory as well."
Lu Lian didn't answer directly, but Lin Moyu took her silence as confirmation.
