Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 1639: Chapter 497 Tier 7 [Law Scholar]_3 Chapter 1639: Chapter 497 Tier 7 [Law Scholar]_3 …

The full Elemental Affinity of the Profession Card and the main ingredient, the Omen Insect swarm’s split Spirit… are abilities highly compatible.

Leonard Churchill looked at the Profession Card in his hand, growing more pleased.

His thoughts settled, he exchanged glances with Sophia Jones beside him, then closed his eyes to begin meditating.

Infusing it with Curse Power, the Hexagram Array behind the Profession Card slowly lit up.

The entire card gradually transformed into strands of colorful elemental threads, permeating into Leonard Churchill’s limbs and body.

He sat cross-legged, immersed in meditation, clearly feeling a Transcendent Power slowly seeping into his body.

At that moment, various high-level Elements transformed into absorbable Transcendent Power, surging into his body and soul.

Leonard Churchill felt as if his body had become a colorful world.

Flames, Frost, Storms, Dark, Light, Forests, Rocks…

Elements manifested in the form of “aspects” within his Consciousness Space, then violently crammed in.

It felt like a balloon, already inflated to its limit.

But at this moment, a terrifying external force surged in, wanting to burst the original form and achieve rebirth.

Leonard Churchill had advanced six times before; he was very clear that the stronger the Extraordinary Traits of the Profession Card, the more painful the advancement process.

He had been prepared.

But this time was utterly different from the previous six.

Furthermore, because it was a full-elemental advancement, he was experiencing a more complex sensory experience than Sophia Jones had.

When those Extraordinary Traits surged into his body with unprecedented intensity, Leonard Churchill understood why Divine Power was necessary.

The materials of the Profession Card were extracted from creatures beyond his own tier.

To forcibly integrate those Extraordinary Traits, they would resist, assimilate, and mutate.

This process was painful yet wonderful.

Leonard Churchill felt he was transforming into the form of the materials–Omen Insects, White Dragon, Rainbow Mushrooms…

Or turning into a Big Mountain, into deep forests, into lakes and white clouds…

Increasingly resembling a monster, a composite monster.

It was notably difficult to maintain a human form.

This was also why countless predecessors from the East Wilderness who had forcefully advanced without guidance, mutated one hundred percent.

Human genes are too fragile to withstand the erosion of such powerful external Extraordinary Traits.

Genes are like the foundation of a high-rise building; without a strong enough foundation, it is difficult to support a magnificent structure above.

Either you have a powerful genetic modification, like the bloodline of an ancient Divine Beast…

And “Divine Power” is what anchors the card master to humanity.

It allowed Leonard Churchill, in that agony, to maintain enough Will to anchor his human form.

Also, his own comprehension of Law now acted as a mold, integrating those frenzied Elements into his body in an orderly fashion with “True Understanding of All Things.”

To Leonard Churchill, it felt like the water in a river; although turbulent, it still flowed within the anticipated riverbed.

The solid Domain became the most stable riverbed, allowing the flood of Extraordinary Traits to pass steadily.

The duration of this process was unknown.

In Leonard Churchill’s conscious world, it seemed an eternity had passed.

Although the advancement process was painful, it was also a Big Chance.

The unique system design of the Profession Card made the card master’s advancement process like a temporary window the universe’s origin opened to oneself, allowing one to glimpse beyond their current tier’s Extraordinary comprehension.

This is the essence of the cognitive improvement that comes with tier elevation.

The more robust one’s strength, the more they could perceive.

Leonard Churchill, relying on the Extraordinary Traits of the Profession Card, forcefully elevated his cognition, striving to glimpse more Transcendent Secrets.

He absorbed these cognitions voraciously.

In a flash, it was Ten Days.

His body felt like a broken water jar, then remolded anew.

Became bigger, stronger.

….

This day.

Leonard Churchill suddenly opened his eyes, sparks of brilliance bursting forth.

At the same time, Sophia Jones in the tent also opened her eyes and sensed the transformation erupting from him, her beautiful eyes full of amazement, she asked, “Did it succeed?”

Although advancing was expected, Sophia Jones now also felt an inexplicable anticipation.

Leonard Churchill’s eyes slowly converged the brilliance and he slowly exhaled a turbid breath: “Yes.”

The feeling of being Seventh Rank was truly amazing!

At this moment, he realized that the world seen through the eyes of a top-tier card master was truly fascinating.

The High-level Laws he previously perceived as hazy, now clearly displayed before his eyes;
The Martial Skills and Spell Secrets he previously couldn’t understand, now abruptly became clear;
The promotion in rank brought about an enhancement in cognition, making Leonard feel the whole world once again became clear.

His Domain and Divine Power had also greatly heightened.

And on the Attribute Panel, various attributes had also skyrocketed.

Strength, physique, Agility, Tenacity, Skill, Mental Power… all had significantly increased.

This advancement took the Scholar path; the increase in physical strength wasn’t too exaggerated, but the three primary physical attributes of strength, physique, and agility all broke through the 1000 barrier!

To others, these values of the body seemed outrageous.

Leonard Churchill had previously seen the attribute explanations of card masters at the Royal Academy.

For a normal Seventh Rank human melee card master, reaching 800 in one of the three main attributes was already elite.

Even some Pure-blood dragon descendants, having strength alone over a thousand was considered top-notch.

But exceeding a thousand in all three major attributes was almost impossible.

Not just compared to humans, this data compared to demon beasts was not inferior.

Frankly speaking, Leonard Churchill was now a human-shaped demon beast!

The guarantee in Mental Power was even more exaggerated.

From less than 400, it skyrocketed to over 500.

And both the growth potential and upper limit of Mental Power had substantially increased.

With Mental Power exploding, like the perception abilities of the Mysterious Type, control over Spells, Spell casting, Spell controllable tier limit, and the efficiency of coordination between mind and body… all saw a significant increase.

This escalation in combat power was exponentially multiplied.

This kind of enhancement brought tremendous confidence.

He was immensely confident that if he encountered that Heavenly Dragon Saint from before, just in terms of strength, he absolutely had the power to fight!

….

“This is Seventh Rank…”

Leonard Churchill’s face was filled with undeniable brilliance.

Although success in advancement was expected, truly experiencing the enhancement it brought gave him an indescribable thrill.

Sophia Jones, who stood beside, saw his expression and a smile of relief similarly appeared on her face for his happiness.

Originally, she wanted to ask more about his condition, but at this moment, noises like a battle suddenly came from outside.

Leonard Churchill snapped back to reality, looked at Sophia Jones and asked, “What’s happening outside?”

In fact, during these days of advancement, he also sensed some abnormalities.

But because Sophia Jones was guarding by his side, he hadn’t diverted his attention.

Sophia Jones sensed the noise outside the tent, seemingly used to it by now, and indifferently said, “It has been like this these days. Uncle East has checked, people from the Holy Church and two other external factions have found ancient relics at the sixteenth level of the Underground Cave, and both sides are fiercely fighting over it… From time to time, there are sounds of intense battle…”

“Oh.”

Upon hearing this, Leonard Churchill realized and then muttered to himself: “The sixteenth level? Those guys have explored that deep already…”

He vaguely felt that that place might be somewhat close to the truth behind the fall of Emperor Lanlingster.
