Regarding the cultivation of the Divine Weapon, Lu Ran certainly had a wealth of experience.
However, in the case of the Silent Night Blade, he encountered a new situation—a singular Divine Weapon Domain!
The ascension of the Silent Night Blade did not add new domain effects; it seemed born solely to imprison others' energy, deeply cultivating in this path without any other potential for growth.
Lu Ran realized one thing: the Divine Weapons and Magic Artifacts in the hands of Divine Demons were likely specialized in a single domain.
For example, the Magical Artifact·Ghost Talisman previously attached to the Ghost Talisman Doll's head.
Though it was a Fourth Rank Artifact, it was exceptionally pure with only one function: to target those who wouldn't honestly reveal their true form.
Likewise, there were Moon Spirit's Curved Moon Hook, Cloud Mace's Twin Stone Mace, Bi He's Bi He Pouch, etc...
The above were all Fourth Rank Divine Weapons and Artifacts, with domains and effects that were very singular.
It seemed that Divine Demons particularly liked to delve deeply into a single path.
Unlike Lu Ran, who, with the Eight Desolate Blade and the Dawn Blade, explored around a certain core concept.
One could wonder if there was some reasoning behind this.
If Divine Weapons and Artifacts specialized in domains, would they, in the same rank, have deeper attainment compared to those 'multi-talented' Divine Weapons and Artifacts?
For example, better casting effects, higher damage, and so on?
Lu Ran dared not make a rash judgment.
Just considering the current situation, he wielded the Eight Desolate Blade, which combined three domains, and could shatter Divine Demons!
At least regarding Divine Demons, the damage of the Eight Desolate Blade was absolutely sufficient.
On the 25th day of the winter month, it was undeniably an extraordinary day.
Lu Ran finally emerged from seclusion!
After eight arduous days of researching, Lu Ran stood on the shoulders of giants, ascended to Fourth Rank with the Silent Night Blade, and smoothly acquired the Divine Weapon Domain.
"Whoo!!"
In the underground seclusion room of the Tianya Residence, a windstorm suddenly spread outward.
Lu Ran was overjoyed, firmly gripping the hilt of the blade, feeling the Silent Night Blade vibrating.
He had to savor this moment!
Usually, the Silent Night Blade remained silent, treating Lu Ran, its master, in a cold and indifferent manner.
It couldn't be described as aloof.
More like introverted....
"Buzz~" The vibrations of the Silent Night Blade gradually decreased, slowly returning to silence.
"Don't stop!" Lu Ran immediately said, "You've advanced to Fourth Rank, surpassed the Heavenly Realm, reached the pinnacle of the God Realm! Aren't you happy?"
Though it was the result of mutual effort, within the seclusion room, only Lu Ran was cheering excitedly.
"Silent Night?" Lu Ran shook the blade back and forth, "Wake up, Silent Night!"
Silent Night Blade: "..."
My master is so noisy.
"Silent Night, do you remember when you first felt the domain on the streets of Rain Alley City? After so many years, we've finally..."
[Quiet.] A sudden heart thought engraved itself in Lu Ran's mind.
Lu Ran: ?
Was Silent Night talking to someone?
Seemed like it was me; after all, this was a private conversation... Darn! It's simply outrageous!
With his lips pursed, Lu Ran took a moment before standing up with the blade in hand: "Alright then, let's go test the range of the Domain of Silence."
He did not dare to perform it on the spot.
After all, Tianya Haijiao was still shrouded in thick fog, with soldiers furthering their ascension.
Once Lu Ran activated the Domain of Silence, it might abruptly sever the soldiers' upward path.
He went outside Tianya Residence, taking a few Shadow Guards directly to the northwest to Mo Gu Peak, where he carefully prepared and conducted an experiment.
The result could only be described as a mix of joy and concern.
At Second Rank, the range of the Silent Night Blade's Domain of Silence was 500 meters.
At Third Rank, the range increased to 3,000 meters and could restrict targets at or below the Heavenly Realm, imprisoning the Divine Power within.
When the Silent Night Blade reached Fourth Rank, the Domain of Silence skyrocketed to a range of 10,000 meters!
A full ten kilometers afar!
Recalling his previous battle with Nu Ying, Lu Ran then realized at that time, the Valkyrie had not used her full power, only deploying the "3,000-meter range" Domain of Silence.
It was sufficient against the small fry Human Clan, accurately restricting individuals like Lu Ran in the Heavenly Realm.
Previously, Lu Ran might have thought Nu Ying was holding back.
But after personally wielding the Silent Night Blade and utilizing the most top-tier Domain of Silence, Lu Ran understood that Nu Ying's choice was incredibly wise.
The Domain of Silence was a continuous casting domain.
This requires the Master of Divine Weapon to continuously supply Divine Power.
The larger the domain range, the more Divine Power is required, increasing exponentially!
Lu Ran merely confirmed the domain range with the Shadow Guard Team, then hurriedly retracted the divine skill with the Silent Night Blade.
The total amount of Divine Power needed just to initiate and maintain the top-tier Domain of Silence would astonish anyone.
In just those brief three to four seconds, Lu Ran, who belonged to the second level of the Heavenly Realm, had exhausted all the Divine Power stored within his body!
What did this mean?
Never mind a person of the Heavenly Realm, even a Divine Demon would have to weigh the pros and cons carefully.
"This is bad..." Lu Ran muttered, looking at the Silent Night Blade with a complex expression.
The Divine Weapon was top-tier, a T1 level existence.
After all, the world's Divine Weapons and Artifacts topped at Fourth Rank, and the Silent Night Blade had already peaked on the summit.
Its Divine Weapon Domain was also among the very best.
A T0 level existence!
Silent Night Blade soared again from the mountaintop, standing high beneath the heavens, completely exceeding expectations.
However, Lu Ran couldn't fully utilize it!
Even with the assistance of the equally top-tier Fourth Rank Artifact·Fiery Phoenix Patterned Gourd, could Lu Ran sustain the domain for eight seconds, ten seconds?
