Chapter 360: Near the bottleneck, Dream of Restoring the Kingdom

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

As for the Extraordinary Constitution Activation Talisman, Romo did not give it to Dick directly.

He would use this talisman when he next visited his dream to impart the cultivation technique.

His plan was to visit the four Divine Mage descendants in their dreams one by one and impart them the Sun Flame Immortal Technique. The four Divine Magi that learned the new cultivation technique would impart it to the other core family members.

Of course, if there was a special situation and a need had risen for cultivation, Romo could also appear in a dream to teach and provide guidance in the dream.

After Zoro and the other descendants who were top Great Archmagi had changed their cultivation technique for some time, they would likely be preparing to advance.

Currently, there were four Divine Magi in the family, but the family clan’s rank still remained at level-3. It was not known what other requirements were needed to advance to level-4. If it was just the numbers, it would probably be soon. If the requirement was for something else, such as the total number of family members, it would still have to wait.

The Nicholas family currently had a total of more than a hundred people, much more than ten years ago. However, by the standards of a first-rate family clan, the total number was too small.

Although the descendants were all trying their best to produce offspring, this would still take time. Coupled with the fact the descendants’ levels were getting higher, the likelihood of conceiving an offspring correspondingly decreased.

In the other magical family clans, the clansmen would be divided by the level of talent for magical power. Those with poor talent or those without magical power cultivation talent would basically continue to reproduce as ordinary people. However, very few of those produced would have good talent.

As for the Nicholas family clan, the magic formation that enveloped the entire family territory was already very powerful in assisting magical cultivation. The cultivation techniques of the family clan were also of higher tiers.

Even if one was not a core member, what he was learning was still a very good cultivation technique. No matter how bad his talent was, with the over tenfold enhancement, it was absolutely possible for an ordinary person to become an ordinary Mage or a Great Mage.

However, if one’s talent was too low, one might not be able to cross a certain threshold in his lifetime, which might be a realm or a level.

For example, an ordinary person with low talent might only be able to become a top Great Mage at most. His talent, potential, and upper limit were about the same. After reaching the upper limit of the individual, it would be useless no matter how much he cultivated.

It could be said that everyone’s talent was a constraint for the highest realm of magical power he could advance to. Cultivation assistance, including cultivation techniques, would increase the speed at which a person could reach the bottleneck of a realm.

The closer one got to a personal bottleneck, the more one’s talent would be squeezed dry, and thereafter, the effect on one’s cultivation would become poorer.

The higher the realm of magical power, the more obvious this phenomenon was.

For example, Old Man Pale Face, who was lucky enough to obtain the divine-tier inheritance and break through to become a Divine Mage, seemed to be permanently stuck there after he had advanced to level-1 of the Divine Mage realm.

Another example would be those Divine Magi who cultivated in seclusion all year round. Actually, they were also wasting time grinding away at the bottlenecks, which included the realm bottleneck and also the personal bottleneck.

In the end, it could be concluded that time was too short.

Ten years was just the blink of an eye for a Mage. Which top magical family and faction had not developed for hundreds or thousands of years?

Over the long years, no matter how few clansmen there were, as long as there were no special circumstances, in the end, the number of clansmen would be huge and their aptitudes would be disparate.

For ordinary magical family clans, in order for their family clan to develop stronger and go further, they would usually concentrate their resources. They would basically pick out the elites of the main lineage and the family clan, allowing the cultivation resources to be of greater use.

As for the Nicholas family, as long as the members paid their respects daily to provide Faith Points, they were all good descendants.

In addition, although the family clan currently had first-rate strength, the family members were still far fewer than the others. They had been divided into the main lineage and the side branches. This would be discussed in future.

Back to reality, it was not known how long it would take for the family clan’s rank to advance.

The Dragon Flame Flying Sword, which had increased the family clan’s luck by 1,000 points, was still assigned to Ron. This luck stabilizing magical sword was a conventional top-grade sacred weapon when the dragon vein energy was not used. It could still be used as a weapon.

News of the underground dragon vein in the Black Forest had not spread.

Upon careful thought, the only person who knew where the dragon vein dragon scale had gone was Lenny, the Sect Master of the Forging Sect. If he did not reveal it, no one else would know.

Then, there were the gains from the extermination of Orly Kingdom’s remnants. From the contents of the storage rings of Jared and the Divine Mage old man, Ron and the others guessed their exact identities and also pieced together the enemy’s plan, which had been previously unknown.

Ron and Serena were both surprised to learn the name of Jared.

Jared and his master were both fake identities used for concealment in the magical world of the Sebastian Kingdom. The remnants of the Orly Kingdom, which included them, had been secretly plotting to restore the Orly Kingdom.

Back then, they had wanted to pull the Sky Blue Magic Academy into the plan to restore the kingdom, so they had wanted to tie the knot with Serena to facilitate the subsequent plans.

In the end, this plan to rope in the Sky Blue Magic Academy was ruined before it had even begun because of Ron’s rise.

Jared had also gone to the mystic realm trial that Ron had gone to. He had originally wanted to kill Ron, but when he saw in the mystic realm that Ron had easily killed the trial-takers from the four large family clans of the Holy Light City, he changed his mind.

Jared had deliberately leaked the news of Ron killing them, intending to make use of the four large family clans to kill Ron.

However, Ron was not exterminated by the four large family clans of the Holy Light City. Instead, the four large family clans were completely annihilated by the Nicholas family!

From then on, Ron’s level increased, the Nicholas family also rose, and Jared could not find an opportunity to attack.

After that, in order to restore the Orly Kingdom, Jared and the others joined forces with the senate of the Lassie Kingdom and the Beast Sect to carry out the magical beast attack on the Imperial City of the Sebastian Kingdom. However, in the end, that heavy-weight Great Mountain Desolate Demon was killed by the twin heroes of the Nicholas family clan, so their original plan naturally failed.

Jared and the others lay low for another ten years. Only recently did they make a big move to lure the army of the Lassie Kingdom to suppress the southern border of the Sebastian Kingdom. A few days later, the army of the Malai Kingdom pressed down on the northern border as expected and caught them off guard!

As the secret manipulator, Jared and the others had taken advantage of the chaos to go to the Black Forest to snatch the dragon vein. This dragon vein had been accidentally discovered by the remaining royal family survivors of the Orly Kingdom.

Their original plan was to snatch the dragon vein and refine it to increase the possibility of restoring the kingdom.

In the end… they bumped into Dick again!

This time, it was even more tragic. The thousand-year plan to restore the country had been ruined, and everyone was dead…

If no one else knew about the destruction of the Orly Kingdom, it would probably rot in the stomachs of the few people from the Nicholas family forever.

… .

On the night of the successful smelting of the dragon vein, in the Nicholas family.

Lily focused on her cultivation as usual. She was suddenly in a daze. She had arrived at a familiar place.

After looking around, she smiled and saw the benevolent old man beside her. She shouted in surprise, “Old Ancestor!!”

She was clearly a 17-year-old girl, but in front of her Old Ancestor, Lily was still innocent and adorable, just like the dark-skinned little girl yesterday.

Romo smiled and said, “Lily, learn a new cultivation technique from me today.”

“That’s great!” Lily’s eyes lit up. “Old Ancestor, what is the new cultivation technique?”

“It’s the Sun Flame Immortal Technique…”
