Chapter 555: Chapter 349: The Entire Team at Fourth-Order Peak, Spiritual Link Super Evolution (4K)
Half a day later,
the upgrade from Level 4 to 5 of the Tianyuan Territory was finally announced as complete.
The expansion of the territory came to a halt, the transformation of the military secret realms ceased, and various miraculous changes quieted down.
"Next, it's time to welcome the Heaven and Earth Baptism,"
Mu Yuan initially rushed to promote the territory for this purpose, for the baptism of heaven and earth.
Like the previous Third-order and Four-order baptisms, the effects were relatively weak for high-order warriors, being good if it could increase a small level.
The baptism of a Level 5 territory, generally speaking, couldn't possibly be several times stronger than that of Level 4, but as long as the lord obtained a high rating during the trial, the power of the baptism from heaven and earth would be accordingly elevated.
"Isloa, Lu Liu, Rakshasa and other generals, after this baptism, could all be elevated to the peak of Four-order. Now, with the Limit Breaking Method at hand, they need only to refine themselves for another month or two, then they could advance to Legendary one after another."
They are all 'future legends' who already possess both Domain and Light of Will, just short of filling in the last gap.
Two months later, the Tianyuan Territory might enter a 'Legendary surge period.'
By then, crushing Fang of the Jackal Wolf and kicking Blood Snake Encase would no longer be an issue.
He doesn't have to tread on thin ice with such caution anymore!

Without this baptism, for Tianyuan Territory to produce its third legendary figure, it might have to wait for another seven or eight months—a significant difference.
The Heaven and Earth Baptism came at just the right time.
"Prompt: Do you wish to start the Heaven and Earth Baptism?"
"Prompt: Do you wish to start the Heaven and Earth Baptism?"
"Prompt: …"
The alert sound was already urging him on, and with the completion of the territory upgrade, the Heaven and Earth Baptism also had to descend without delay.
However, delaying it for half a day was enough.
In this half-day, Mu Yuan first spent a large amount of Soul Crystals to upgrade several 'Breakthrough Dojos' to LV5. Then, he recalled batches of elite troops who were patrolling and exploring in the outside world.
The latter was a bit more troublesome.
After all, Tianyuan Territory was engaged in warfare with Fang of the Jackal Wolf and Blood Snake Encase. There was no large-scale war, but small-scale conflicts and fights occurred from time to time.
Without the elites at the frontlines to block the minions of the overlords, it wouldn't take long for the enemy's blade to reach the foot of Wolf Head Mountain, or even discover the core territory of Tianyuan Territory.
They had to snipe the enemy at all times to maintain strategic depth and, of course, to probe for intelligence on Fang of the Jackal Wolf.
Once he recalled the elites, the frontlines would collapse.
Fortunately, they were not fighting alone; Tianyuan Territory also had two powerful allies, Natural Garden and Giant Ridge. However, before he could recall these elites, Mu Yuan had to notify his allies first.
He also sent out the Undead Beings raised within his Holy Mountain by Dead Bone to temporarily take their place. The Undead Beings couldn't compare with the elites, but in great numbers, they could still perform a decent bluff.
Duo Lai also made a slight sortie, sweeping through several areas suspected to contain traces of Legendary figures.
By doing so, they put some pressure on the enemy.
At that moment, Dead Bone was in the north, and Duo Lai was not within the territory but in the south, vigilant against the minions of Blood Snake Encase.
Both had already reached the Legendary Realm and wouldn't miss this Heaven and Earth Baptism too much.
"Lord, each unit is ready; a group of soldiers who are at the high tier of Second-order, peak of Second-order, and peak of First-order, have all entered the Breakthrough Dojo," reported Isloa. Afterward, she gathered all eleven of her avatars scattered outside and entered the Ice Heart Lotus Platform, specifically into one of the Cultivation Lotus Platforms.
She took a deep breath and lit three sticks of Rare Level Cultivation Incense for herself.
Next to her, Mu Yuan sat down in the adjacent Cultivation Lotus Platform. A screen of light flickered and blocked the view. His mind gradually became calm, all troubles and irritability dissipating like smoke, and there was only the curling green smoke of the incense in front of him, softly drifting.
The Light of Baptism from heaven and earth began to descend.
The sky seemed to unleash a shower of light, falling gently, warming both heart and body.
The citizens of Tianyuan Territory had already been notified; at this moment, they stepped outside, tentatively catching a bit of the light rain, and then their expressions turned to surprise.
"Praise to Lord!"
"Is this a gift from the heavens? Lord bears the mandate of heaven."
Ordinary territory citizens couldn't truly partake in the Heaven and Earth Baptism, but even bathing in the light rain, they felt rejuvenated, fatigue from their bodies immediately faded, and their legs felt stronger, even climbing up eight flights of stairs with ease.
There was also a group who had undergone the transition to warriors and mages that enjoyed the real baptism.
The falling light rain turned into streams of light, accurately descending upon them. Their true strength increased, their spirits refined, as if they could punch dead a giant wolf.
"Level: Level 4 of Stage 0 → Level 9 of Stage 0"
The ones who gained the most were, of course, the higher-level elites.
Breaking from First-order to Second-order, Second-order stepping into Third-order.
Mu Yuan felt his body brimming with strength, his Energy Lake within him breaking inch by inch, expanding outwards.
An invisible storm burst from around him, causing the Cultivation Incense to sway incessantly.
He became stronger.
"I am now at the peak of Four-order!"
At this time, the Heaven and Earth Baptism still hadn't ended.
The heavens gave too much.
He was already full, overflowing.
Mu Yuan felt it was a pity but then thought of something. He hurriedly loaded the Dead Bone template and cultivated the 'Limit Breaking Method.'
His bones and muscles popped and crackled loudly, and the cells within his body were transforming.
He converted the baptism from heaven and earth into nourishment required by the Limit Breaking Method, using it to refine and strengthen himself.
