[Third update, fourth update tomorrow]
Salin decided to cross the Red River and go to the area controlled by Cloud Flow.
A level-11 divine spell had reduced the combat power of all the people around Salin to rock bottom. Salin did not want to rashly move forward and bump into the other two chief judges.
However, Salin did not know that the other two chief judges of the Tribunal happened to be south of the Red River at this time, negotiating with Cloud Flow.
Neris put away the 12 Movements of Purgatory and sent two great demons to the eastern mountains to search for the crystal skull that had been blasted away by Salin's family crest. However, the two great demons led their subordinates to search for a few hours, but they did not find the divine artifact. Salin did not dare to stay here any longer, so he could only head south toward the south of Titan.
The Titan Duchy was mountainous, and the plains were concentrated in the west. The Red River was also a strange river. Its source was less than 200 kilometers from the sea, but it flowed east until it reached the middle of the mountains. Only then did it split into two. One flowed toward the sea and was an inland river. The other flowed toward Cloud Flow and crossed Cloud Flow into the sea.
The river that Salin wanted to cross was an inland river that flowed away from the sea. The large river that flowed toward Cloud Flow was called the Red River, which was also the Redwater River.
There were no golden-armored knights harassing them along the way, which made Salin feel much more relaxed. Although everyone was heavily injured, Salin himself was only exhausted and not seriously injured. Neris's clones were also full of combat power, so they were not worried about magical beasts attacking them.
Salin simply poured some power of faith into Eleanor's longbow, Seven Nights, and she could finally use her skills. Mages were unwilling to use this power of faith, but for elves, it was purer than life force.
The power of faith of believers could only be condensed at the cost of their lives.
After passing through the river, the terrain gradually became flat. Neris summoned more demons to temporarily serve as guards. Eleanor simply flew high in the sky and monitored the surroundings.
Salin chose a valley and let everyone stop and rest.
"Everyone will stay here for half a month and recuperate before moving forward. We will not go by land. Next, we will go to our destination through the river. "
"River?" Winter was the only one who did not understand.
"Yes, this river is quite deep, about 20 meters. It will be much easier for us to slowly move forward than on land. In this half a month, I will also refine equipment so that everyone can advance underwater. "
A river that was twenty meters deep was indeed not shallow. The Church had also raised many flying bird-type Magical Beasts, and it was very convenient for them to monitor and control the area. If Salin were to walk on land, he would be discovered at any time, and then he would have to fight the experts of the Inquisition head-on. If he was in Qin Yin's territory, he would not be afraid. However, there were people from the Church everywhere. If he was injured again, it would not be so easy for him to leave.
Salin wanted to rest because he also needed time to repair the Destiny Doll.
The battle with the Chief Inquisitor had only lasted a few minutes, but Salin had used almost all of his skills. If not for the Destiny Puppet, Salin would have been dead for sure.
Dark Prophecy wasn't an ordinary divine spell. Most defensive equipment would be ignored by Dark Prophecy and hit the target directly. Salin's Destiny Doll was personally made by Cain, and the materials used were superior to the Star Pattern Suit.
Salin distributed a large number of Alchemy Crossbows to the demons. These Alchemy Crossbows were all medium-sized. Humans could only use them on chariots, but demons could operate them empty-handed. He also gave the demons the Purple Gold Liquid they carried with them to apply. The Alchemy Arrows with the Purple Gold Liquid could penetrate most armor and magic equipment, and were also a huge threat to the equipment of Mages.
The demons set up a defense in the valley, while Salin had the Elemental Stone Soldiers help build a stone house in the middle of the valley.
In the stone house, Salin summoned the Destiny Doll. The Destiny Doll sat in front of Salin, and its appearance was almost no different from Salin. The Destiny Doll's body was naked, and there were shocking scars on it. The Destiny Doll had been divided into eight parts. If not for the remaining power of the stars, the Destiny Doll would have been a pile of fragments.
Salin took out a level-19 Star Condensation Needle and began to stitch up the doll's wounds. The wounds were pitch black, and the power of Dark Prophecy lingered in the cracks. As the Star Condensation Needle pierced through, the black energy was absorbed bit by bit, destroyed, and dissipated into the air.
Salin had to rest for an hour after stitching up. The destructive power of this Dark Prophecy made Salin extremely vigilant. If the black energy touched his body, he would be more injured than his subordinates.
If not for the Star Condensation Needle, Salin didn't know how long it would take to use magic to dispel this Dark Prophecy. The difference in levels could only be made up for with equipment.
Salin's spiritual power had expanded more than ten times, but it still took him a week to repair the Destiny Doll. He couldn't mobilize more powerful power of the stars. If not for the fact that the Star Condensation Needle was of a high enough level, and this strange level-19 Star Condensation Needle could automatically release part of the power of laws, Salin wouldn't have a better way.
Of course, to repair the Destiny Doll, Cain was the easiest. But the time it took for Salin to go back and forth from the Abyss King's City was much longer than the time it took for Salin to use the level-19 Star Condensation Needle.
For six days in a week, the valley was quiet. No enemies approached. Salin had to fly high in the sky every day, using the Elemental Eye to observe. If there were any abnormalities within a radius of a hundred miles, he would immediately move.
Salin asked his followers, and Sue and Zola had to continue healing. Nicholas used Minor Prophecy to dispel the damage from the Dark Prophecy every day, which was also very tiring. Fortunately, he took the opportunity to collect the souls of the twelve Adjudicators, so the power of the Fallen Scepter did not decrease.
Sika was in the best condition. Only her weapon was contaminated, but she didn't suffer any damage. The Beast War Soul in the weapon blocked the disaster for her, and the special attribute of the Beast War Soul was not a soul in the general sense. The curse of the Dark Prophecy did not affect the Beast War Soul, but the Beast War Soul was enveloped by the contaminated weapon and couldn't provide more power for Sika.
Winter's external injuries could only be slowly healed with Salin's magic fluid. Nicholas was unwilling to heal him. After all, Winter's injuries wouldn't have any side effects, but it would be very troublesome for Zola and Sue to be completely healed without damaging their lifespans.
Of course, Salin wouldn't be idle. Zola and Sue needed at least eight days, and he could use this opportunity to refine equipment.
Salin took out a fifteen-meter-long Thunder Dragon skin. This Thunder Dragon skin was complete enough. What Salin did was to refine a few spaces inside it so that he and his men could stay comfortably inside.
A skeleton was propped up in the Thunder Dragon skin. Salin had studied a complete Thunder Dragon skeleton, so it wasn't difficult to do this. Moreover, the Thunder Dragon he studied had claws, so Salin directly refined claws outside the Thunder Dragon skin so that this equipment could move forward by crawling.
These were the simplest things. The only creation Salin made was the star pattern on the Thunder Dragon skin.
This snake-like equipment, with the protection of the star pattern, was difficult to detect by divine spells such as Prophecy.
There were many pieces of equipment that needed to be refined. The semi-divine weapon left behind by the Dark Substitute, the small square shield, was directly refined by Salin into a shield suitable for Nelis. This shield could be big or small, and its defensive power was needless to say. The high-frequency attacks of level-nine spells didn't leave any marks on this shield.
There were still many problems to solve. Salin found that within the range of the domain, the Elemental Badge was difficult to use. On the other hand, his Star Pattern Bracelet was unaffected. The Elemental Badge's level was a bit low, but it was very useful. As long as there were elemental creatures, the magic power he could mobilize would be several times greater.
For example, with the help of elemental creatures, Salin could condense more than three thousand ice cones at the same time for dozens of rounds of attacks.
The Thunder Dragon Spear was not affected, and the Eye of Lightning was not a skill that could be blocked by the domain. Salin knew that if he could refine enough Thunder Dragon Spear and put it in the star bracelet, his combat power would increase by more than ten times.
But to refine the Thunder Dragon Spear, the material needed was the Thunder Dragon's throat. There was only one Thunder Dragon's throat, and Salin couldn't kill the sleeping Thunder Dragon in his necklace.
The key was that his level was too low. Salin also knew that this self-evaluation was a bit excessive. There were not many Mages at the peak of level-nine in the entire continent. There were many Mages who had forcibly advanced to level-nine, but less than one percent of them could compare to him in combat power.
But if he didn't advance to level-ten, Salin could only rely on the Puppet of Fate to resist the Prophecy Spell.
Salin once again felt the predicament of his level. He thought that advancing to level-nine could take a long time to consolidate his knowledge, but now it seemed that he had to find a way to advance.
The Thunder Dragon Spear could not be replicated anymore. If he wanted to fight against a high-level mage, it seemed that the Thunder Mageweath was a good thing. Although Nelis did not use the Thunder Armor, her lifespan was not damaged by the Dark Prophecy Spell. Luoluojialuo's bloodline was one thing, and the other was Nelis's own physique, which had been changed by the Lightning Protection skill.
Salin felt that his offensive ability was insufficient. He called Eleanor and said to her, "I plan to teach you a skill to improve your archery, but this may delay your advancement."
Eleanor said strangely, "Salin, you always want me to advance as soon as possible, why this time …"
"I was forced. This time, only you are good at long-range attacks, and your skill … can't be used in the domain. Give me your bow … "Salin said after some consideration.
Eleanor handed Longbow Seven Nights to Salin without hesitation. Salin held Seven Nights in his hand and gently stroked it. Although this longbow had reached the level of a divine artifact, it did not have a weapon spirit, so it consumed a lot of energy every time it was used.
"Eleanor, are you willing to … follow me forever?" Salin asked.
Eleanor's face reddened slightly. She knew that wasn't what Salin was asking.
"Master, I will follow you until the end of your life."
