Chapter 649 - 749: The Sudden Attack
However, Ye Tianfan didn't dwell on it for too long and directly said, "One of its core functions is suppression."
"Suppression?" Bai Feng asked in confusion. This kind of thing cannot be made by just having the materials; it requires a lot of skill. Not only because suppression is intangible, but also because it involves using mental and physical suppression techniques to subdue the enemy.
And more importantly, the core function of the Mystic Dragon Inscription is suppression. Instantly, Bai Feng felt quite deflated. Why did Bai Feng feel deflated? Because the core function of the Xuanyuan Tower is storage. If, on the contrary, it didn't have the storage function, it would be an ordinary supreme-level defensive magical treasure. However, with the storage function, this Xuanyuan Tower is more valuable.
Unlike the Mystic Dragon Seal's ability to enlarge, shrink, and crush, which can be casually built into a magical treasure, even with added attack and defense functions, the core function of suppression is unattainable by materials alone. It can only be realized through skill by releasing a special secret technique during artifact refining and then sealing and engraving this secret skill onto the magical treasure to form a suppression pattern. Only then can this magical treasure have the function of suppression, where the suppression is not just about pinning enemies in place or subduing demons, but also suppressing the intangible luck.
The concept of luck is extremely mysterious. Although luck cannot be seen or touched, it is critically important. If a person or a sect loses their luck, their demise is not far off.
But if a person or sect has abundant luck, then? They would be blessed beyond measure, facing few significant difficulties throughout their life. Although there may be some fluctuations, they will always turn danger into safety, avoiding any harm to their body and mind.
If there is ample luck in a sect, then it will continue to pass down its legacy for a very long time, until its luck is exhausted. If the luck were never exhausted, the sect would continue to pass down forever.
Suppressing luck refers to using the power of a powerful magical treasure to hold down this intangible luck. Luck slowly dissipates as long as one lives in this world.
When you obtain a magical treasure or encounter a fortuitous event, some of your luck would be consumed. Life is about equivalent exchange. Your deep blessings mean you have long-lasting luck. And the depletion of luck means your luck is exhausted. Suppressing luck is about using a magical treasure to pin down your luck, thus slowing the loss significantly. Even if you obtain a supreme magical treasure or experience a fortuitous event, the luck consumed will be much less than it originally would be.
One can imagine how valuable such a magical treasure that can suppress luck is because it safeguards not only your blessings but also your life and destiny.
Therefore, magical treasures capable of suppressing luck are generally desired by major sects. After all, who wouldn't want their sect to have an endless legacy, lasting for generations.
Suddenly, Bai Feng realized. This, this is a magical treasure that suppresses luck, not an ordinary magical treasure.
Instantly, Bai Feng felt on the verge of collapse because he suddenly recalled that Ye Tianfan's Xuanyuan Tower is already a magical treasure with storage capability, making it the number one defensive treasure in the Treasure Realm. He even previously thought that Xuanyuan Tower was the top among supreme magical treasures.
Now, he's been informed that Ye Tianfan's other treasure can suppress luck.
This left Bai Feng feeling bad. It's like the heavens favoring Ye Tianfan, giving everything to him to choose and pick from while discarding the unwanted ones.
Moreover, the Mystic Dragon Seal also has the function of breaking restrictions and arrays, which alone is quite remarkable, enough to push the Mystic Dragon Seal into the top hundred of supreme magical treasures.
Now that the Mystic Dragon Seal also has the function of suppressing luck, Bai Feng is unsure whether the Mystic Dragon Seal or Xuanyuan Tower ranks first.
However, in terms of function, the Mystic Dragon Seal is quite powerful, but the Xuanyuan Tower involves the rules of space and time. Space is king, time is supreme, so the Xuanyuan Tower can be much stronger than the Mystic Dragon Seal in certain situations.
Of course, opinions differ, and no one can say for sure about the rankings. Some people prefer the Xuanyuan Tower, and others prefer the Mystic Dragon Seal, making it impossible to compare.
After all, to each their own.
As Ye Tianfan answered Bai Feng's question, he intended to enter a state of cultivation.
Suddenly, they heard a thunderous crash resounding from Taichu Peak.
Upon hearing this sound, Ye Tianfan immediately stood up.
Bai Feng followed suit and stood up as well. They exchanged a glance, and despite the confusion in their eyes, they knew this was not the time for hesitation. They needed to quickly head to Taichu Peak to see what had happened.
If Taichu Peak encounters any problems, then the other eight peaks will collapse without its support.
The reason the other eight peaks float in the air is due to Taichu Peak's presence at their center, forming an array that keeps them afloat.
If anything happens to Taichu Peak, the entire Taichu Sect will cease to exist.
Thus, they hurriedly dashed out of the cultivation cave, summoned their flying swords, and flew toward Taichu Peak. Before taking off, Ye Tianfan didn't forget to retrieve his three magical treasures.
Both of them traveled at full speed for Taichu Peak's security, leaving Bai Feng far behind. In the blink of an eye, Bai Feng couldn't even see the tail of Ye Tianfan's flying sword.
Bai Feng was shocked and thought, "I remember Ye Tianfan wasn't this fast before. How did he become so fast? Did advancing one realm increase his flight speed significantly?"
Bai Feng clearly remembered that Ye Tianfan stepped on the Fire Lotus Sword, not the Free Wandering Sword known for its speed.
But is it really okay for Ye Tianfan to go so fast? If the enemy is too strong, I could at least stay on the side and use a magical treasure to resist and buy Ye Tianfan some time...
Thinking of this, Bai Feng smiled bitterly, realizing that staying by the side was useless. Ye Tianfan now has two defensive magical treasures, enough to buy him time, even if Bai Feng used all his treasures, they couldn't compare to Ye Tianfan's two supreme defensive treasures.
