Chapter 274 The secret power is sublimated and returns to [Black Swan]!


    【Rhine Secret Realm】


    Under a large tree with dark red leaves and lush branches.


    The invisible wave of mysterious power is rushing nearby, slowly spreading outward like a tidal wave.


    ?No matter flowers, trees, trees or rocks, nothing can stop it.


    Under the influence of this mysterious power, the growth rate of [Crimson Ancient Tree] seems to have accelerated a little.


    The crimson leaves swayed gently under the tide of secret power, looking very magical.


    Looking at this scene, Sha Jingjing next to the altar was filled with amazement and said softly.


    “As expected of the Holy Son, the news of promotion is getting louder and louder.”


    ?Beside Sha Jingjing, there were several boys and girls from the [Yongyue Tribe].


    They all sat around the altar, quietly comprehending this strange secret power, and practicing through it.


    Sha Jingjing turned her head and said to them seriously: "We are all blessed by the Holy Son, so we can have such an opportunity. We must cherish it and be grateful."


    Not long after Xia En entered the promotion ritual, a strange secret power began to emerge around the altar.


    Sha Jingjing, who was responsible for guarding this place, soon discovered that this secret power was of great benefit to her body, and the previous bottleneck showed signs of loosening.


    So, Sha Jingjing selected a group of talented people from the [Yongyue Clan] to practice beside the altar.


    ?As expected, after this period of subtle influence, the strength of these tribesmen has improved in different ways.


    Someone''s body has been strengthened.


    Some people have a more delicate grasp of the secret power.


    ?Hearing Sha Jingjing''s words, a young man from the Yongyue Tribe looked at Xia En''s retreat hut with admiration and sighed.


    “My lord, the Holy Son, is truly amazing.”


    “Just the aftermath of the promotion has benefited us a lot.”


    Another girl looked worried: "But...isn''t it too long for the Holy Son to be promoted?"


    “Is it really okay?”


    Her thoughts were very simple. It took so long for Lord Shengzi to be promoted this time, but he didn''t eat. Is there really no problem with his body?


    Hearing this, Sha Jingjing couldn''t help but frown slightly.


    To be honest, she has always been a little worried in her heart.


    She knows more than the average tribesman. She knows that Xia En’s promotion ritual is special and extremely difficult, otherwise he would not have come to the [Rhine Secret Realm] for seclusion.


    However, out of trust in Xia En, Sha Jingjing still chose to believe and wait.


    At this time.


    Another young man from the Yongyue clan exclaimed in a low voice: "Look! Under the sacred tree..."


    Hearing his call, everyone’s eyes immediately looked below the [Crimson Ancient Tree].


    I saw that the previously invisible tide of secret power was suddenly dyed with a faint black color.


    ?This darkness expanded outwards in an instant, and soon blackened the entire tide.


    The [Rhine Secret Realm], which was still sunny just now, instantly became extremely dark.


    Immediately, not only the [Crimson Ancient Tree], but also the space where many Yongyue tribe members were located was shrouded in darkness.


    At this moment, it’s like night has fallen!


    ?Faced with such a vision, the boys and girls couldn''t help but become speechless. Even Sha Jingjing couldn''t say a word.


    Shortly afterwards, this pitch black windless land automatically rippled, and a little light appeared in the middle and slowly rose.


    ?Looking from a distance, it looks like countless stars spread across the vast night sky.


    Large and small light bubbles are formed and destroyed in the deep darkness.


    Sometimes it turns into light spots, sometimes it turns into light marks.


    Everything seems bizarre, but at the same time it is full of wonderful laws.


    ?Sha Jingjing and others are still standing on the land of [Rhine Secret Realm], but they seem to have crossed the barriers of the world and can see the true appearance of [Secret Sea].


    How can such a scene not shake people''s minds and shock them incomprehensibly?


    In fact, for them, witnessing this kind of scene in advance will be of great benefit to them on the secret road in the future, and they can avoid many detours.


    When you are promoted, it will also become particularly smooth because you have sensed the breath of the [Secret Sea].


    ?However, at this time, everyone in the Yongyue clan had no time to care about this kind of thing.


    ? Their whole bodies and minds were attracted by the vision in front of them and could not extricate themselves.


    followed by.


    In the darkness, waves began to surge, one wave higher than the next, like the deep sea before a storm.


    Suddenly there was a roar.


    The violent secret power escaping all around seems to have begun to collapse after expanding to the extreme!


    At the center of the secret power, a huge whirlpool appeared, and the center of the whirlpool was bottomless.


    Endless secret power surged toward the center of the vortex, pouring like a waterfall, enough to push an ordinary fifth-level mystic to death.


    Among them, the nearest [Crimson Ancient Tree] also received part of the secret power.


    ??The whole tree has grown taller visibly to the naked eye, and the crown of the tree has become denser and more prosperous.


    Seeing this, Sha Jingjing suddenly realized something and shouted: "Hurry up and absorb this secret power, as much as you can!"


    Having said that, Sha Jingjing sat down first and tried her best to absorb the secret power around her.


    The total amount of this secret power is too huge.


    Even during the absorption process of Xia En, a considerable part will escape.


    And this part of the secret power is the opportunity for the people of the Yongyue tribe!


    In the hut, Xia En''s eyes were closed tightly, his chest rose and fell rapidly, and he could faintly hear the pulse like ancient war drums.


    All the secret power pouring down from all around penetrated his body and poured into his chest.


    There, there is an invisible whirlpool spinning.


    At the center of this vortex is the deepest darkness, which seems to be able to swallow everything.


    While the vortex was turning, the mysterious power all over Xia En''s body was also undergoing a miraculous transformation.


    This is a level of sublimation.


    From ordinary secret power, it has become a secret power that is closer to the depths of the [Secret Sea], purer and more original.


    Wait until the deep darkness fades away like a tide and the violent tide of secret power subsides.


    ?Shaan slowly opened his eyes and found that the hut next to him no longer existed, leaving only a puddle of powder.


    Obviously, under the violent rush of secret power just now, this small house was overwhelmed and was directly crushed into powder.


    ??Similarly torn into pieces were the clothes on Xia En''s body.


    He calmly took out the clothes from the space ring and started to put them on.


    But this movement made Xia En feel very uncomfortable.


    After sleeping for many days, his body was like a rusty machine, and even the simplest movements were a bit jerky.


    ?However, after a little movement, Xia En immediately discovered that there was volcanic power lurking in every cell of his body, and it would explode at the slightest thought.


    ?He used a little more force and tore his clothes apart.


    In desperation, Xia En had to carefully take out another one and slowly put it on his body.


    ?After getting dressed with some difficulty, Xia En looked at himself and found that his body had become more perfect after being promoted.


    ? Streamlined muscle lines, straight back, and even the facial features have undergone subtle adjustments and become more beautiful.


    ?The entire body has no flaws at all, like a work of art.


    In addition, what surprised Xia En even more was the change in the secret power in his body.


    His secret power, both in total amount and degree of purity, is several times greater than before.


    Very simple reason.


    When performing the same secret technique, the more pure the secret power, the greater the power it exerts. Not only that, during the long process of breaking through the barrier of [nothingness], Xia En has been adjusting the state of the secret power, gradually changing its nature.


    After the promotion ritual ended, his secret power was completely sublimated and he achieved transformation.


    In fact, the secret power of each Mystic Pathfinder has its own characteristics.


    For example, the secret power of the [Warrior] secret path is difficult to use to cast spells.


    The secret power of fire attribute is difficult to produce ice attribute attack.


    ?However, at this time, Xia En''s secret power seems to be able to evolve into any kind of secret power, adapting to different types of secret techniques!


    It can be said that this secret power is close to the origin of the secret power!


    Its level is so high that it is extremely rare in the Seven Seas.


    Because it is pure, it is powerful.


    “It seems that this is the biggest benefit after being promoted to the fifth level.”


    Xia En’s eyes were bright, and the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile.


    Although the hidden profession [Secret Sea Walker] obtained, it does not directly provide skills for combat.


    But the sublimation of this secret power alone has raised his combat effectiveness to a higher level.


    ??If Xia En used [Great Dark Sky] now, he could hardly imagine how powerful it would be.


    I have to say.


    ??This promotion ritual can be called the most dangerous one among Xia En''s several promotions.


    ??The other promotions were extremely difficult compared to other Mystic Pathfinders, but with Xia En''s strength at the time, he basically had a way to deal with them.


    But this time, the physical fitness and combat power that Xia En always relied on were almost useless.


    You can only rely on a little bit of exploration and experimentation.


    ?The long persistence in the endless darkness continued to wear away his will.


    At the most dangerous moment, Xia En really almost lost himself in the void.


    ?Xia En has reason to suspect that other Mystics have failed in promotion and may have another chance.


    And if he fails, the only thing that will greet him is complete death.


    ?However, the difficulty of promotion to the ritual is high, and the reward can be said to be extremely generous.


    “This kind of secret power is close to the [emptiness] barrier that I touched before, but it doesn’t really reach that level.”


    “Just call it...[Secret Power of the Void].”


    ??Xia En casually gave this secret power a name, quickly opened his stance, and performed the [Knight Strengthening Method] in the open space to adapt to his upgraded body as soon as possible.


    After completing four or five sets of movements, Xia En finally felt that he had roughly mastered his body. He then transformed into a blood sword and repeatedly practiced basic sword skills.


    Nearly an hour later, he was fully adapted.


    Not far away, Sha Jingjing waited patiently for Xia En’s movements to stop, and then respectfully stepped forward.


    “Lord Holy Son…”


    Xia En turned around and looked at Sha Jingjing with her ears erect and her tail wagging, and she suddenly felt like she was in another world.


    But, for some reason, the moment she saw him, Sha Jingjing tucked her tail between her legs and her body was still trembling slightly.


    Xia En asked curiously: "Huh? Sha Jingjing, what''s wrong with you?"


    Sha Jingjing shivered and said honestly: "No, it''s nothing."


    "The current Lord Holy Son is a bit scary..."


    ?In her eyes, Xia En was filled with a strong sense of oppression, like a giant beast in the deep sea, which made her instinctively uneasy.


    Like the reaction of wild animals when they encounter those stronger predators.


    ?Especially looking at those dark and deep eyes, it gave her the feeling of looking directly into the abyss.


    Obviously, this is because Xia En has just broken through and his aura has not yet completely converged.


    ?Xia En tried hard to control the breath around him and asked.


    “How long have I been promoted?”


    Sha Jingjing replied: “It’s been nearly a month.”


    “It’s been a month?”


    ?Xia En frowned, feeling a little uneasy.


    This time is actually about the same as he expected, but in this month, a lot of things can happen.


    ?Perhaps something happened on the Black Swan.


    ?Hence, Xia En no longer hesitated, and after saying goodbye to Sha Jingjing, activated the [Empty Beast Heart Seal] to open the silver light door.


    After the light dissipates.


    Xia En returned to the [Black Swan].


    Looking at the familiar layout in the captain''s cabin, Xia En suddenly felt at ease, as if he had returned home.


    In fact, isn’t [Black Swan] already his home?


    ——


    Soon, a long whistle sounded on its own.


    Everyone on the ship felt the vibration and joy of the ship. It was like the cheers of thousands of people, and it was like the whole ship came to life and became active and vivid.


    ?That’s the [Black Swan] welcoming its captain!


    With a "bang", the door to the captain''s cabin was pushed open.


    ??Joy rushed in first and rushed over to hug Xia En.


    “Mr. Captain, you are finally back!”


    The girl''s eyes were filled with tears of joy.


    Xia En is always on the boat, so she doesn''t feel much.


    But this time when Shane broke through the retreat, Joey realized the irreplaceable importance of the captain.


    ?Obviously it was only a month since she last saw him, but to her, it felt like a century.


    ?Shaan rubbed Joey’s little head and was a little surprised to find—


    Joy seems to have grown up a bit.


    Not only the height has increased, but also certain parts of the body have undergone some changes.


    Probably from the Xiao Long Bao in the South to... the Xiao Long Bao in the North?


    This was a judgment that Xia En made subconsciously when they hugged each other. It was just an accident.


    ?But just think about it.


    ?Judging from the days of the Siren''s blood transformation, Joey is obviously still in the developmental stage, and it is natural for him to continue to grow up.


    “Wow, it’s Mr. Captain!”


    Xian Ge''s excited voice sounded outside the door: "Hiss... Why does it feel like Captain Xia En has become so much stronger!"


    “This breath is like a [secret sea].”


    Feiya grabbed the back of Xian Ge''s neck, like holding a big cat, to prevent it from rushing into the captain''s cabin.


    “Please calm down, didn’t you see Joey making out with the captain?”


    “Huh? Make out?”


    Xiange asked confusedly: "What does that mean?"


    Hearing this, Joey stood up with a red face and said to the door: "You all come in."


    ?Not long after, all the crew members came to Xia En, and even the lazy salted fish ghost Vivian floated in.


    ?Seeing that they were safe and sound, Xia En couldn''t help but breathed a sigh of relief.


    ?But soon, Xia En noticed that one crew member was missing. He frowned slightly and asked.


    “Where is Yan Yan?”
