In a trance, he recalled many years ago when he was still young and competing with his brothers.

At that time, one by one, my brothers and sisters failed in the competition with me, and many of them even lost the motivation to practice well.

The young boy at that time was dismissive of such behavior and took it for granted that they should continue to work hard to narrow the gap with their opponents.

Perhaps the way I look at Louis now is exactly the same as the way my brothers and sisters looked at me back then.

The fourth level of the invisible world is the mind’s eye.

Because the invisible strong wind has spread all over his body, it has replaced the five senses and become the eyes of the practitioner to observe the world. The opponent's physical defects, extraordinary strength defects, and movement defects will be infinitely magnified under the intensive observation.

This is the mind's eye, a nine-sword that can accurately exert the power of the invisible realm. In his eyes, the weaknesses of the enemy are as if they are marked directly, so clearly.

All you need to do is to stab the weapon into the weak point, and you can cause damage to your opponent like a butcher cutting up an ox.

But something terrible happened.

As we all know, the first martial art of the Eternal Blade is called [Eternal Training]. Its effect is to pull the professional into an invisible dream, where he will receive training from the Blade Mentor to find out the opponent's weaknesses.

Due to Merlin's preference for Louis, Louis had started stress-resistance training with various races on the continent as imaginary enemies long ago.

For various reasons, both stated and unstated, the first race he considered as his imaginary enemy was humans.

Kulin was clearly still teaching Louis how to use his mind's eye to find flaws in his enemies, but the next moment he felt severe discomfort in every corner of his body.

He was also very smart and noticed that Louis had discovered his flaws.

The worst thing was that he could clearly feel that Louis discovered more weaknesses through his mind's eye than he did.

Grass, a kind of plant.

Can this teaching continue?

Is there anyone who learns skills this way? Someone stop him, he is committing a crime!

In fact, he had long realized that Louis' current combat power had surpassed that of a legend. This was his mysterious perception as a swordsman.

Could this be the absolute suppression of skills brought about by more powerful strength?

Is it so great to have a higher level of cultivation?

If his evil disciple Jinuo appeared in front of Sword Saint Kulin at this time, he would definitely say with a crooked mouth:

"I'm sorry, Master, it's great to have a higher level of cultivation."

At this point, the last layer of the invisible world is almost in Louis' hands.

The fifth level of the Invisible Realm: the Deep Sea Circle and the Star-piercing Sword.

At this time, the area covered by the invisible spiritual realm has formed your third eye, and the enemy's flaws are infinitely magnified in front of you, which means that your perception and control of the invisible spiritual realm has reached a new level.

What you need to do at this time is to use this strong dominance to attach it to your body and even weapons and enemies.

The spear that can pierce everything and the shield that can resist everything can be converted into each other.

[Time Stop] Through the pure power similar to invisible strong wind, it can stop the material and spiritual movement in the surrounding area, and naturally it can also become a "fatal blow" under absolute movement.

Among them, the deep sea circle borrows the power of "stillness" to exert the effect of invisible strong wind.

Although you cannot freeze the opponent's actions like stopping time, the invisible strong wind that constantly entangles the enemy is like a source of living water. Before your mental strength is exhausted, it will permanently reduce the opponent's movement speed by 10%.

Please note that this 10% ratio is a minimum guarantee.

This is the deep sea circle. Within the deep sea circle, other people are like being squeezed by the deep sea water, and their movements are restricted everywhere.

And as your control over the invisible罡风 increases, this ratio will continue to rise.

Theoretically, if a person's mental strength is strong enough and his control over the invisible wind is raised to the limit, he can take another path -

Extract the spiritual power mixed in the invisible strong wind, so that the proportion of pure power continues to increase.

After gradually adapting, it means...

The deep sea circle will get closer and closer to the state of [time stopping].

After Louis skillfully used the deep sea circle representing "stillness", he felt the horror of this power.

Even the guaranteed 10% slowdown effect can be suffocating.

Friends who have played strategy games should know that, let alone 10%, if your opponent's movement speed is increased by an additional 2%, when the power of both sides is basically balanced, even if you have higher strategic ability, the pressure will more than double.

At this time, there is only one thing most players can do, which is to go to major social platforms and sacrifice the planner's horse.

Not to mention 10%, it can directly cause a crushing effect at the same level.

The problem is that this percentage can be increased, which is awesome.

The sword light that penetrates the stars is even more outrageous.

It's a bit like time-stopping optimization.

However, it does not act on the surrounding area, but on the sword.

When Louis heard Sword Master Kulin say that a layer of invisible Gangfeng plating that was close to absolutely still was attached to both sides of the blade, and an accelerated moving invisible Gangfeng plating was attached to the vacuum zone between the two layers of still Gangfeng plating, he was speechless.

Maybe some people don't realize what this concept is.

Among all the high-tech melee weapons imagined by humans that Louis had seen in his previous life, the high-frequency knife was more similar to the principle of the Star-piercing Sword.

Through high-frequency vibration, the object being cut can be "separated from the wall", which theoretically causes great armor-piercing damage.

But there is a method that currently only exists in fantasy - atomic slash.

This method is closest to the Star-piercing Sword.

Think about it, when a region of an absolutely still object suddenly moves relative to itself, what does that mean? Direct atomic or even more microscopic cutting.

He finally understood why Kulin no longer believed that great force could produce miracles.

The end of the Star-piercing Sword must be an irresistible microscopic scalpel that will tear apart any substance that touches it.

This is the power of a sword master.

Although Kulin said that this method is called Invisible Gale, Louis prefers to call it the [Holy Sword of Physics].

This is the ultimate in slowness and acceleration.

Feeling the continuously expanding deep-sea circle and the star-piercing sword light entwined on the Tianxin Sword, he suddenly had a subtle feeling.

"Have you mastered the legendary method?"

The invisible realm is the prototype of the demiplane, and the two paths of [slowness] and [cutting] are thus unblocked.

Combining the two, he now had an additional means to directly tear apart the legendary realm.

"Your Highness, please be careful when you go to the Rockhi Empire. The warriors there have a unique style."

Louis heard this and said curiously, "Mr. Kulin seems to have some opinions about the Rockhi Empire?"

Kulin shook his head and said, "Strictly speaking, I don't have any objections, but I just can't accept their habits."

Louis actually did some research on the relevant information of the Rockhi Empire.

But what you learn from books is always superficial, so it is better to listen to the opinions of the elderly.

Kulin told Locke some things about the Empire.

The first to be affected are the thirteen blood families.

"Do you know why there are thirteen blood families?"

"It's because there are thirteen paths to the ultimate sublimation of bloodline in the Rockhi Empire."

Thirteen bloodlines, corresponding to thirteen demigod paths.

It is said that the ancestors of the Rockshi Empire used special means to contain the power of monsters in their bodies.

Eventually, thirteen extremely stable bloodline networks were formed.

In fact, judging from the appearance alone, the Lokshi do have a bit of orcish appearance.

"Do you think that the thirteen bloodlines firmly control the promotion channels in the Rockhi Empire, and may be more class-fixed than in neighboring Tunisia?"

Louis nodded.

The four great ducal families of Tunisia have never really declined, but at least those who are talented on the extraordinary path can still move up, and there is no shortage of nobles in the four great ducal families who are willing to cooperate with each other in their interests.

But Tunisia's extraordinary path can be learned by both nobles and commoners.

Kulin's eyes became deeper: "Yes, the mainstream extraordinary path of the Rockxi Empire requires the bloodline of the thirteen families to learn."

"That doesn't mean..."

To determine whether or not one can become a professional by bloodline, doesn't this mean absolute class rigidification? However, Kulin smiled and said, "On the contrary, among the three major human nations, the only one with the weakest class rigidification is Roxy."

Only then did he tell Louis some things about the Roxy Empire.

The key point is that the power of the Roxy Empire is indeed firmly controlled by the thirteen bloodline families. It can be said that all the important positions in the empire are divided up by these 13 families.

But the Roxi people, who have the bloodlines of thirteen families, account for 98.3% of the Roxi Empire.

In other words, 98.3% of the people in the Rockhi Empire are from the Thirteen Families, it’s just a matter of distance.

Among the thirteen bloodline paths, there are five bloodlines, which are the five guardian stones.

They correspond to five powerful bloodlines respectively.

Infernal Dragon.

Red-eyed double-winged tiger.

Howling moon and mad lion.

The giant elephant of extreme cold.

Seraphic Bird.

The monsters corresponding to these five bloodlines can become legends once they reach the complete stage. With the addition of the thirteen king weapons, they can be promoted to demigods after being sublimated to the extreme.

The lower eight bloods correspond to the wolf, deer, monkey, rabbit, fox, whale, snake, and cow, eight kinds of monsters that also have the potential to be demigods.

In order to further tap into the power of blood, the main professional system of the Roxy Empire is called Curse Swordsman.

A swordsman who can use spells (although he can also use other weapons).

The Curse Swordsman has a special feature. From the moment he takes office, he can use the heart blood of monsters to condense the core of his own spell.

Depending on the source of the heart blood, a completely different development path will be extended.

Take the above five extremely cold giant elephants as an example.

The Arctic Giant Elephant is naturally huge in size, has strong resistance to attacks, and possesses a series of ice-related spells.

Then the thirteen professionals with the bloodline of the Arctic Giant Elephant will absorb a series of "ice monsters" that can continuously strengthen their bloodline during their growth.

Snow girl, ice bird, frost bird...

Even if you only have a trace of the blood of the Arctic Giant Elephant in you, you will be nurtured by the precious blood of different ice monsters as the level of the Curse Swordsman profession increases.

Since the Curse Swordsman abides by the "Demon Hunting Covenant", which is an extremely powerful contract, if the Curse Swordsman wants to absorb the characteristics of other monsters to grow, he must hunt monsters on his own.

The amount of precious blood obtained from monsters that are not hunted by oneself is less than one percent of that obtained from hunting alone.

It's okay at low levels.

There are really not many suitable and sufficient monsters that the high-level members of the Thirteen Frost Giant Elephants can find.

Considering the long-term development, the money I earn from hunting alone is barely enough, so how can I possibly use it to support the younger generation at home?

Louis exclaimed in amazement: "This is a good way to develop. Theoretically, if a talented genius appears, he can push himself to the top through fighting all the way."

"To some extent, this is equivalent to giving most people the possibility to cross classes."

Kulin nodded and said, "In fact, more than 70% of the thirteen families' heads of families climbed up from non-noble ranks... relying on their absolute talent."

hiss.

Louis gasped.

70%?

What does this mean? Doesn’t it mean that the privileged class in that country is actually rotating in a way that “the emperor takes turns, and this year it’s my turn”?

The Roxy Empire is truly a utopia for geniuses.

but……

"It seems that you have figured it out. That place is also a hell for mediocre people."

"The cursed swordsmen of the Roxy Empire are too warlike. Excessive force sometimes leads not to strength, but to unnecessary internal friction."

"Besides... there are many details that cannot be explored in depth."

Louis knew what Sword Master Kulin wanted to say.

Indeed, it is a wonderful idea to give everyone the opportunity to move up.

But the way to move upward is determined by "power", which will inevitably lead to huge hidden dangers.

The protagonists in novels often get into trouble, but in the Roxy Empire, there are hundreds of thousands or even millions of people with such characteristics.

Even if there are relevant rules and regulations, a lot of trouble is inevitable.

Of course, the Gu King that can crawl out of the Gu breeding farm must be extremely powerful and brutal.

But the problem is that many things cannot be solved by force alone.

——Not everyone is an emperor.

Moreover, leaders who are selected solely based on strength often have many problems.

With equal talent, the gap between students in various colleges, whether in Enser or Tunisia, is actually not that big.

Because under the imperial system, most families, even wealthy merchants and nobles, would most likely hire people who were no better than the academicians trained by the empire.

This ensures that, except for a small group of people at the top, relatively fair development can be guaranteed under the same environment most of the time.

But Roxy is different.

The characteristics of the Curse Swordsman mean that many families start out much better than ordinary people.

It is true that the thirteen companies have broken through the rising bottleneck through alternative means, but they will also open up a huge gap in the early and middle stages.

At the beginning, there was a huge gap between the cursed swordsman who hunted the newborn ice tyrannosaurus cub with the help of his family and the cursed swordsman who could only hunt ice birds in the wilderness.

Unless you are lucky enough or have outstanding talent, the gap in the early stage will make you feel isolated.

Anyone who has played Monopoly knows that if you turn on the modifier, you will find that it is a fair game of rolling the dice and relying on luck, but in fact, when you change your starting capital to three times that of others, it will be difficult for you to lose.

And if your starting capital is 10 times that of others, then you can always win.

Not only that, you will also cause the other three to go bankrupt quickly, because you can upgrade facilities at any cost, seize resources, and even plunder other people's assets in a short period of time in the early stage.

Behind the smooth promotion channels, there are still people who can stir up the situation.

He could imagine that the internal situation of the Rockxi Empire was probably extremely serious.

And... there is a high probability that you are used to "the fun of fighting with others".

It's broken, it's the Curly Dog Empire.
