The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse - Chapter 529

Chapter 529: Finally Saint (2)

[Congratulations, You have received three skills after breaking through to the Saint stage]

Klaus gazes at the messages with a smile. Initially, he expected two skills since he had two classes, but now that he had received three, he couldn’t wait to get down to it.

All three skills are mythic rank skills.

(The ranking of skills & techniques are Mortal Earth, Heaven, Legendary, Divine, Ancient, Mythic, Immortal, Empyrean, Supreme, Celestial )

(Also, the Mastery level is as follows: B, A, S, SS, SSS, SSR)

__________

<Weapons Domain>

<Rank: Mythic>

<Mastery Level: A>

— You can now create a domain with a diameter of 50 meters. Inside this domain, any weapons you wield will gain 30% sharpness.

— Your damage output will receive a 50% boost when fighting inside the domain.

— Your mastery over any weapon will be increased by two levels while inside the domain.

— Inside this domain, you will gain a unique ability to predict the trajectory of your opponent’s weapons.

— All damage dealt by your opponent will lose 20% effect while done inside the domain.

— Any weapon you wield inside the domain will have a 30% chance to ignore enemy defences, bypassing armour or barriers.

— Opponents within the domain will experience increased weapon degradation, causing their weapons to lose durability twice as fast.

— A weapon resonance effect occurs inside the domain, allowing you to temporarily summon a spectral version of any weapon you’ve previously mastered to fight alongside you.

<The more mastery you have over this skill, the more powerful it becomes.>

Klaus was impressed with the skill simply because he needed something like this for close combat. With a domain with a diameter of 50 meters, he was bound to have an edge over his opponents.

The only downside is he would have to keep his opponent inside the domain to make all these amazing effects do their work.

But that can be arranged, considering it’s a 50-meter-wide domain.

All the buff he will receive is something he can work with. He can also wield any weapon since he is a weapons Overlord. So this domain skill is perfect for him.

“Not bad. I can use this in the battles to come.” He turned his attention to the next skill.

___________

<Mushroom Air, Poison Domain>

<Rank: Mythic>

<Mastery Level: B>

— You can create an invisible illusion that releases poison spores into the air.

— This causes spore confusion that disorients foes caught within the range of these spores.

— All those caught within this illusion will have difficulty identifying allies and enemies.

— The user becomes harder to detect within the illusion, gaining a 50% boost to stealth.

— The longer this illusion remains, the stronger the effects on the foes.

Klaus wasn’t particularly concerned with the skill. Perhaps he doesn’t see much need to use this while he has the [Eye of Despair] three abilities.

But he wasn’t about to shut it down, considering the skill grows as his mastery grows, and in this case, the technique grows with his Poison and Illusion class.

The stronger he gets, the more powerful it becomes, which means Klaus just has to keep getting stronger to increase his mastery.

Depending on the battlefield he is on, he could use the stealth boost of the skill to hide his presence and sneak up on his targets.

It will all depend on the battlefield he finds himself on. If suitable for this skill, he won’t hesitate.

Klaus was happy; however, when the next skill appeared, a frown appeared on his face.

____________

<Overdrive>

<Rank: Forbidden Mythic>

<Cost: Personal Sacrifice>

Effect: Stats are increased by 1000%, and you gain omnidirectional attack awareness, predicting all enemy movements. Duration: 10 minutes.

Cost: 100 years of your life span.

____________

The skill was, without a doubt, a forbidden skill that he could not use easily. He would lose 100 years of his lifespan whenever it was used.

Of course, a hundred years is a small number, considering a Saint can live for 200 years. But losing one’s lifespan, even if it’s just 100 years, was still something he could not freely give away.

Life force is something one must cherish with all one’s body and soul. He doesn’t have to sacrifice it for power unless necessary.

“But then I have Nine Lives, which means the current me can live for 1800 years. Now, that changes everything.” Klaus smiled.

Indeed, his Nine Reincarnation Divine Body grants him nine lives. This means his life force is now nine times that of the average cultivator.

Of course, he doesn’t know if there is a boost since he isn’t ordinary. But he knows some cultivation techniques increase one’s lifespan as they level up.

The techniques he gave to his friends and lovers all have this boost, so he knew he could at least use this a dozen times before he started to grow white hair, which is ironic considering he had white hair even as a youth.

But he cannot ignore a 1000% boost, especially in a trial that gave him life points before it even began.

It doesn’t take a genius to know he is in danger. He may now have the power to go toe-to-toe with a Transcendent like the one he faced on the mission inside the forbidden Zones, but he knew it was because of 7 sage cores supporting him.

But once he uses the [Shared] ability of the [Paragon Mark] and these buffs, he can trump Transcendents and even go against Overlords (Ascendents).

“I have a question,” Klaus said, looking around.

<Go ahead>

“Is the time here the same as the time on the outside?” Klaus asked. Yuying had once told him there are different time differences in different worlds.

<Yes. The time here is the same as the time outside>

“I see.” Klaus stood up and did some light stretches.

He summoned the Lightning diagram and used the remaining lightning beasts from when he helped Queenie back on the moon to strengthen his lightning element.

He also retrieved all the weapons in his possession and made them hover before him. Now that he has become a Saint, his soul has healed.

Aside from his sword and spear, he now has a mace, hammer, axe, and whip. He got the whip from Jason, the leader of the Earth Shadows guild faction that Klaus tortured back in the academy.

For the spirit weapons, his two Void Piercing Needles hover before him. The Crescent Discs and Razor Discs also hover before him.

But aside from these four, another spirit weapon called the Swords Box hovers before him. It’s a vertical rectangular box that contains 100 sharp swords.

With a thought, it can open and unleash blades with deadly accuracy. It was a gift Lulu gave him when he went to say goodbye.

Klaus’s mental strength is now monstrous, so using all these weapons won’t be a problem. The only worry here is having the chance to use them.

Fighting against a powerful person will require absolute focus. So, dividing his attention is not something he can lightly do.

‘But I have cultivated the [Sage Mind] to the 5th level. This means I can divide my attention five ways without worrying about any backlash.

And with the [Unshakable Mind] technique now at its peak, not even a god can break my mind.’

“I am ready,” Klaus said, putting away all his weapons. It was time for him to face his first opponent and finally know the danger he had stepped into.
