However, it is extremely difficult to obtain top-tier traits in the early stages of cultivation.

This is precisely the power of whale transformation, which has been developed—two top-tier characteristics.

Dartmenley, however, is different.

His bones glowed slightly, and then the properties of the holy blood from the Dartmenti family were activated.

The Path of the Saints.

Based on his stats, this characteristic no longer needs to be activated in any other way; it has become a permanent feature that can be activated with just a thought.

However, the path to sainthood also has its problems, namely the burden on the body.

In the previous battle between Nemus and Dartmenley, Nemus used the Secret Sword: Hummingbird to break this characteristic.

This is a case where the skill has been used to its fullest potential.

However, Poole is not Nems; his combat skills are not as strong.

As for the intensity of the Path of the Saint, as long as one can withstand it, it is also the most outstanding characteristic!

Once the special ability is activated, the battle truly enters a heated phase.

Dartmenley completely abandoned all defenses, pointed his sword at Poole, and then launched an attack.

Poole tossed the remaining pebbles away casually, but they were deflected as they approached Dartmenley.

"As expected, the feature has been activated." Nemus's comments on the Path of the Saint feature came to Pull's mind.

The Path of the Saint guarantees that the user will be able to advance and launch attacks.

During this process, no external force can interfere with the opponent's progress.

This 'absolute' quality, if used well, can ignore the vast majority of attacks.

As for the attack and the aftermath, as well as dealing with the backlash and damage to the body caused by the attack.

Although they are all flaws, only a few people are able to exploit them.

It's like an eye that claims to have a 359-degree field of view, but has a fatal flaw because it lacks one degree of field of view.

For normal human eyes, which only have a field of view of about 100 degrees, wouldn't this flaw be even bigger?

As a result, some people believe that the perspective from that angle was actually more fatal.

This is clearly a cognitive fallacy that more is less.

The same applies to the Path of the Saint. It ensures protection for most of the battle time during the offensive phase, and is only unprotected during the attack and confrontation phases, or after the attack.

Other ordinary people have no protection at all times.

“Therefore, if you lack the ability to seize opportunities, the best way to fight Dartmenley is to stall!” Nems’s advice became Poole’s fighting philosophy at this moment.

His body quickly transformed into a black shadow and vanished from Dartmenley's sight.

Without any weight, he was already able to fly.

However, flight can only be achieved by utilizing the anti-gravity force created by manipulating weight.

On the ground, one can use all their strength to propel themselves forward.

Datmenley lost sight of his target in an instant.

Although the path to sainthood is powerful, it is not yet powerful enough to overcome distance as an obstacle.

At least Dartmenley can't do that right now.

Then, Dartmanley turned his gaze to the other side, to Cecilia within the magic circle.

Since Nemus had nurtured the other party to this extent, he naturally had a need for them.

So……

Datmenley raised his sword, his movements equally swift, and charged toward Cecilia.

"Grandpa Chief!" Cecilia murmured, whether in her sleep or for some other reason, even though she was unconscious within the magic circle.

This caused a subtle change in Dartmanley's expression, but he did not stop walking or wielding his sword.

Chapter 229 For the Family

For the sake of the family.

This is not just a slogan, but Dartmanley's lifelong belief.

From birth, he was bathed in the glory of his family.

Everything he enjoys is provided by his family, and his high status is also due to his family.

Everything that made up his life was related to his family.

In everything, in every memory, family plays a significant role.

It has been more than two hundred years since he took on the family responsibilities.

Over the past two hundred years, the family's imprint has become more than just bloodline; it has transformed into the passage of time, gradually becoming integrated into his life.

“So…for the sake of the family.” Dartmanley murmured, brandishing his sword at Cecilia.

At that very moment, Cecilia, who had been lying on the ground, suddenly stood up, stretched out her arm, and golden light gathered around it, making it glow.

The moment the arm collided with the blade, a violent shock emanated from the point of impact and spread outwards.

The next instant, Poole, who had disappeared, reappeared behind Datmenley, his enormous hand reaching for Datmenley's shoulder.

If Dartmenley's attack actions are restricted, his special ability will be disabled.

As Cecilia lay on the ground, her body underwent a transformation, and she was split in two.

One side of it was entirely golden, its eyes closed, and its expression was dazed.

On the other side, it was relatively normal, with only a little bit of gold.

The arm that was originally able to withstand a sword strike from Dartmenley now seemed as soft as silk, rapidly rotating and wrapping around Dartmenley's sword and arm, restricting Dartmenley's movements.

Along with it came a spiritual charm, like a fragrance that flooded Dartmanley's senses, making him dizzy.

However, the next moment, the sword in Dartmanley's hand unleashed a strong divine power, which then formed an impact that repelled Cecilia and Poole behind her who were entangled with her.

Only then did he have time to look at it carefully.

She then noticed that although the face was still Cecilia's, it now possessed a great deal of allure.

“White-tailed fox?!” Dartmanley looked at Cecilia now. Although her face was different, her alluring aura was the same, only stronger at this moment.

"The patriarch has good eyesight," Sisimari said with a laugh after bouncing away.

Cecilia, this golden medicine, was never trusted by Nems from the beginning.

This kind of golden medicine, which is gathered in the human body through blood, drugs, whale products and other things, does have a certain probability of promoting people to reach the golden state.

The so-called number of species inherently has a limit, a natural limitation.

After all, everything contains a 'number'.

The more powerful something is, the more numerous it will be.

However, the ordinary method cannot obtain numbers from other things.

Improving is even more difficult.

This involves two main challenges: activation and absorption.

The main function of the gold medicine is to stimulate the numbers of various resources within it, causing those numbers to temporarily detach from matter, thus making them possible to be absorbed.

It also helps the body absorb nutrients to some extent.

If the human body's numerical values ​​are insufficient, it cannot keenly perceive changes in numbers, and therefore cannot absorb numbers. Even if one takes the Golden Medicine and fills the body with those free numbers, it will be of no use.

It's like trying to fill a full bottle with more water; you can't get any more water in, you'll just let some of it go away.

Only by transforming that water in the process into something of higher quality but smaller volume can more water be injected into the body.

This requires the coordination of both the external environment and internal transformation.

Inferior quality gold medicine will not generate enough free radicals during this process, making it impossible to form the corresponding environment.

It may also cause some pollution, leading to problems with the control of the body and mind, thus preventing internal reactions from reaching their full potential.

Therefore, after observing, Nemus directly abandoned Cecilia as his golden medicine for advancement.

Instead, it was given to the white-tailed fox.

After that, the refining of the golden medicine was entirely entrusted to the white-tailed fox.

The White-tailed Fox is definitely a genius whose talents were wasted by his dual cultivation of magic and body techniques.

After joining forces with Nemus and acquiring a great deal of extraordinary knowledge from him, she developed a secret technique using her own magical body techniques to assist her in achieving a breakthrough in the Iron Seed realm.

This secret method interferes with the body from both the spiritual and physical perspectives, causing the body to regress to a certain special state.

This secret technique was named the 'Rebirth Technique'.

Upon closer inspection, one would notice that Cecilia's belly was swollen, like that of a woman three or four months pregnant, and with a series of movements, her belly seemed to shrink a little.

This is the White-tailed Fox's Rebirth Technique.

She shrank her body and returned to the 'womb'.

In this way, a stable 'environment' is formed, and then through the mother-child relationship, the child gradually draws nourishment from Cecilia.

This minimizes pollution, thereby maximizing the benefits of the golden medicine.

At this moment, the white-tailed fox had already 'stretched' inside Cecilia's body, and its spirit had spread to most of Cecilia's body.

It was as if she were wearing a heavy leather coat.

Once the nutrients are absorbed, all that will remain of Cecilia is her skin and a lot of waste.

This golden medicine might not be enough to advance someone to the Golden Species level, but it can certainly elevate a White-tailed Fox to the Steel Species level and rapidly approach its maximum potential.

For some reason, Dartmenley was furious at this moment.

Although he had raised Cecilia as an experimental subject from childhood to adulthood, it was he who had spoiled her.

He also took the initiative to send her away, and it was he who refined her into a golden elixir.

Throughout the entire story, he had countless opportunities to correct Cecilia's problems and save her.

But Dartmenley never did that.

He had watched her grow into the person she was now, but the anger he felt at that moment was undeniable.

Datmenley didn't speak, but instead swung his sword once more.

His purpose in coming here this time was, on the one hand, to prevent Nems from obtaining the Golden Elixir. Nems possesses the bloodline of the Dartmentli family, and theoretically, absorbing the Golden Elixir, Cecilia, would minimize the risk of contamination.

On the other hand, they wanted to gradually eliminate Nems's men.

They're all going to die anyway, so before they die, they should create more value for the Holy Son, giving him a better chance of winning when he and Nemus compete for the protagonist's position.

Whether it's to acquire the power of the fairies or to seize the golden elixir, the essential purpose remains the same.

Chapter 230 Restriction Order

As Dartmanley launched the first battle, the entire town of Tail began to descend into chaos.

However, before that, things started to fall apart at the church.

Because of Dong-hyuk's report, the case has now officially entered the adjudication chamber.

For almost a year, the Tribunal has been suppressed by Nemes. Now, Roman, in order to compete for the position of bishop, has once again challenged Nemes on the issue of Op.

At this point, everyone was still worried that Nems would retaliate later.

Just then, Donghyuk inexplicably made a report and then produced a lot of evidence.

Many of these cases prove Nemes's connection to the smuggling of whale products.

This includes smuggling routes and information about the involvement of people like Op.

This indirectly proves that Nemes and the Aupu Merchant Guild had a close relationship.

Using this as a pretext, Nemus will definitely not escape punishment. At the very least, his position as a Grand Knight can be subject to certain restrictions according to the special regulations of the Tribunal.
