Chapter 661: Rank Apostle
Lin Feng looked at the new attributes of the Sky Chasing Boots, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
The cooldown time for the meteor has been reduced from thirty seconds to ten seconds, the impact range of the meteor has been expanded from eight meters to twenty meters, and the distance of the meteor's instantaneous flash has been increased from one hundred meters to one thousand meters.
The Return Anchor Point is an amazing skill with a 24-hour cooldown. Once an anchor point is set, you can instantly teleport back no matter where you are.
This means he can set up an anchor point in Beacon City, and then return to the city at any time, no matter where he goes.
"Perfect."
He put his Sky Piercing Boots back on and donned all four pieces of dark gold equipment.
Just as all four pieces of equipment were put back in place, a message appeared out of nowhere in my mind.
That's the set effect triggered when you collect all four unique items.
【Dark Gold Set Bonus - Activated】
Detected Dark Gold quality equipment: 4/4
Activated body parts: Weapon, Head, Chest, Feet
Set bonus (activated):
Health +10000
Defense +400 when blocking
Damage reduction increased by 40% after a successful parry.
Negative resistance +15%
Active Skill - Armor Unification: When activated, the entire body is surrounded by golden light, lasting for 10 minutes, with a 30-minute cooldown.
While the skill is active, damage is calculated based on the total defense of the body regardless of which part of the body the enemy attacks, and ranged damage is reduced by 60%.
Melee damage reduction of 30%, additional 90% immunity to Destiny Awakening's finishing blow damage, and increased healing received by 30%.
Passive Skill - Breakthrough: When the wearer is a hero template and reaches level 58, they will automatically break through to level 59.
...
Before he could examine it closely, a surge of intense heat welled up within him.
The breakthrough was triggered passively, like a torrent breaking through the last barrier in his meridians, and his aura suddenly surged.
He could feel his health points rising, his defense increasing, and the numbers on his attribute panel jumping wildly before finally settling at level 59.
Before the torrent within his body had subsided, a second, even more intense wave of power arrived.
It's like two tides colliding, merging, and surging simultaneously in the meridians.
Lin Feng could clearly feel his bones emitting a fine hum, and his muscle fibers being washed and reshaped by layer upon layer of force.
Nine golden rings spun wildly around him, drawing in the dark golden aura emanating from the core of his territory.
A thick, dark golden pillar of energy condensed above his head, piercing through the dome of the council hall and soaring into the sky.
Information about the higher apostles flooded his mind.
...
【High-ranking Apostle】
Health Points: +50000
First Form - Body of Holy Authority - Perfection (Passive - Permanent)
The power of the Holy Authority flows throughout the body, and no matter which part of the body the enemy attacks, the damage is calculated based on the total defensive power of the whole body.
Reduces ranged damage taken by 60%, melee damage taken by 30%, and grants an additional 90% immunity to damage dealt by the Destiny Awakening's finishing blow.
In this state, the healing received is increased by 30%.
Second Form - Domain of Sacred Authority - Perfection (Active - Permanent after deployment)
Centered on the holder, the sacred domain expands outward, with a maximum radius of six miles (which can shrink autonomously).
Within the domain, all units without the Holy Authority domain have 70% of their fixed amplification of three-dimensional attributes forcibly deducted, and all amplification effects from non-fixed sources are nullified.
All friendly units receive the following buffs: increased defense by 50%, health by 3000, increased attack by 30%, and reduced duration of all crowd control effects by 80%.
Third Form - Sacred Judgment (Active - 30-minute cooldown)
The holder concentrates the power of holy authority into a single strike, dealing unavoidable and unblockable holy authority damage to everyone within the area, with the damage value equal to 10% of the holder's maximum health.
Note: Holy Power damage can only be triggered once per 30 minutes on the same target.
Fourth Form - Disguise Form (Active, Switchable)
It can disguise itself as a level 54 lower-ranking apostle or a level 58 higher-ranking apostle.
During the disguise, aura, aura, domain range, and all passive defensive effects are reduced to the level of the corresponding apostle.
Fifth Form: Descent of Holy Authority (Active - 24-hour cooldown)
The holder summons a pillar of sacred light that covers the entire area, with themselves at the core.
The beam of light lasts for 10 seconds, during which the holder's defense increases by 3000, but they cannot move.
All enemies within the beam of light suffer true damage equal to 1% of the holder's maximum health once per second.
After the beam of light ends, the holder recovers 100% of their maximum health and applies the "Holy Authority Mark" effect to all enemies within the area.
If the target's total three-dimensional attributes are higher than the holder's, the target is immune to the brand; otherwise, the brand lasts for 30 minutes.
During the period of being branded, the target cannot leave the area within a six-mile radius of the light pillar until the brand ends or the holder dies.
...
A moment later, everything returned to calm.
Lin Feng felt the steady and powerful force within his body and remained silent for a long while.
The high-ranking apostle is already strong enough, with 30,000 more health points, a Holy Domain covering five miles, and Holy Judgment capable of instantly killing units with less than 4,000 health points.
Yet, even a high-ranking apostle can be strengthened in every way.
The health points are increased by another 20,000, and the flaws that could have been avoided by the Holy Judgment are also removed.
The most outrageous is the fifth form, the Descent of Holy Authority.
This is no longer a question of strength; it's a complete lack of survival options.
Ten seconds of true damage, 1% of maximum health per second, that's 10% in ten seconds.
After the beam of light ends, you can fully recover your health and then apply a 30-minute mark to the enemy, making it impossible for them to escape.
He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, and the attribute panel silently unfolded at the edge of his field of vision.

He put away the panel, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
Level 59, Upper Apostle.
This level is a completely different concept from the previous one.
He is now among the top tier in the Eternal Night Battlefield.
Even if the Blood Demon Sect really deployed its superior apostle-level combat power, he would have the confidence to fight them head-on.
