Chapter 29 Division of Strength
In Karl's view, the peak of the Saint Realm can be roughly divided into four levels so far.
Based on the beginner level, this level of Saint Realm peak can only deal with some people below the Saint Realm peak. Among the same level, it is the weakest level. According to Karl's many years of cultivation, it is the level of mastering a Saint Realm ultimate skill and comprehending its profound mysteries.
As for further advancement, their comprehension of profound mysteries has reached a certain level. According to Karl's comparison, their comprehension of profound mysteries is at a progress of about 10,000, and their strength is about ten times stronger than the weakest Saint Realm. This level is roughly equivalent to the level of those magical beasts that have just entered the Saint Realm.
If he can improve further, he will reach the third tier of the peak of the Saint Realm in the Yulan Continent, with a profound understanding of 100,000 levels. His strength will be nearly ten times stronger than the second tier. Fifty years ago, Karl still needed to rely on his Saint Realm-level physical body to be comparable to this level. Saint Realm experts at this level are enough to deal with those old Saint Realm magical beasts, and it is also the limit that some Saint Realms can forcibly sign contracts with.
As for those above that, there are the peak Saint Realm experts of the fourth tier. According to Karl's conjecture, their level of profound understanding is at least 500,000, which is 500 times stronger than the peak Saint Realm of the entry level, 50 times stronger than the second tier, and more than 5 times stronger than the third tier Saint Realm.
With the vitality of a Saint-level being, it is already able to linger in the void. With the support of various abilities, it is no longer like a level nine warrior, who can gain a huge advantage by being 30% stronger than the same level. Being twice as strong is enough to easily kill.
At the Saint Realm level, different profound understandings lead to different development paths for each person. This situation results in situations where a difference of two times in strength between Saint Realm members is enough to easily kill each other, and similarly, even if the strength difference is two or three times, the two sides will still fight like fire and water.
Just like Karl himself, he comprehended the [Wind Element], one of the seven fundamental elements. Its abilities are comprehensive yet mediocre. Karl's comprehension of the Wind Element is enough to increase his speed several times over, and his attack power is also several times greater. However, in terms of defense and control, Karl's [Wind Element] is weak.
Although Karl believed that with his current strength, relying on his Saint-level physical body and the quasi-divine artifact [Wind Howl] purchased from the system shop, his direct combat power even surpassed that of a Saint-level limit expert who had comprehended a low-level profound mystery. In fact, given the opportunity to fight at close range, Karl was fully capable of killing a Saint-level limit expert.
However, this method can only be used once, as others are unaware of one's true nature. But if someone who has cultivated to the Saint Realm wants to repeat this method a second time, they are not stupid.
This is similar to how the Dragonblood Warriors were so prestigious thousands of years ago, even being called the Four Ultimate Warriors. Even without looking at history, Karl could tell that there must have been powerful individuals at the Saint Realm level who were killed by the Dragonblood Warriors.
Otherwise, judging from the fact that the Dragon Blood Clan's ancestor was still a mid-level god even after thousands of years in the Four Divine Beasts Clan, when Baruch left the Yulan Continent, he most likely had comprehended profound mysteries and was able to subdue even the limits of the Holy Domain with his physical body. Without stronger pressure, he would have chosen to leave the material plane.
Carl is not incapable of replicating the Ultimate Warrior's feats, but what happens after he does?
Do you really think that god-level expert isn't curious?
The simplest logic is that the Holy Alliance has many level nine warriors whose physical strength is at the level six. The Church of Light is not without the forbidden magic of angel descent, but a level six body can only descent a two-winged angel with level nine strength. Sacrificing a level nine warrior to obtain a level nine angel is only possible if the level nine warrior of the opposing force is captured alive. But to capture a level nine expert alive, one would need at least the strength of the late level nine or even the peak level nine.
However, with a Saint-level physical body, Karl didn't even need to think to understand one thing: an eighth-level physical body can summon a Saint-level peak-level angel, and a Saint-level physical body can summon at least one angel with divine power.
This is just the method used by the Holy See of Light; what about the god-level powerhouses of the Magnolia Continent?
If a way to strengthen the physical body could be found, even if it were ten times stronger, the God of War O'Brien might be able to obtain the divine status of a mid-level god.
It is precisely because of the various events on the Yulan Continent that the current relatively peaceful situation has been achieved. However, once something breaks the peace, these powerful figures will not hesitate to remove the disguise of peace.
"The cultivation speed is still too slow," Karl sighed softly.
Over the past fifty years, Karl has not always stayed in the territory. In fact, Karl would occasionally leave Tianfeng County to travel outside and had met many Saint-level powerhouses. Otherwise, Karl would not have been able to achieve such accuracy in classifying strength.
However, Karl has now compared his own strength. Without relying on physical strength, his current profound understanding is only one-fiftieth of the Great Perfection of Profound Mysteries. His progress of more than 20,000 is only enough to bully some weaker peak Saint Realm experts. As for the experts who can leave their mark on the Yulan Continent, they have all reached at least 100,000 levels of comprehension.
"Those who have left their mark are probably the benchmark for the 100,000 level, that Sword Saint is probably the one."
Karl immediately thought of someone, a guy known as the Rock Sword Saint, who had a good understanding of the laws of the earth and, with his powerful mental strength, could even deceive some peak Saint-level warriors.
After all, many Saint-level warriors are strong in their battle aura, profound knowledge, and physical body, but their mental strength is definitely one of their weaknesses, generally only at the level of level eight or above.
Especially after reaching the Saintly Realm, the Saintly Realm-level Saint Magicians are still powerful because of their endless stream of forbidden magic, but once a Saintly Realm warrior gets close, they will still have to kneel down and call him father.
After composed himself, Karl looked at his control panel.
Now, after fifty years of development, the bloodline within the family has gradually become more outstanding. The main contributors are the promising young talents. If they are naturally gifted and willing to work hard, Karl will bestow upon them the talent of a level nine warrior while they are young. When these talented descendants marry and have children, the vast majority of their offspring will be born with the aptitude of at least a level seven warrior, and the more outstanding ones will not be weaker than level eight.
As for achieving the talent of a level nine warrior, that's extremely difficult; usually, such talent requires a Saint-level bloodline.
There are quite a few level nine warriors among the commoners on the Yulan Continent, but who knows if any of their ancestors, generations ago, had ever produced a Saint-level expert?
Unfortunately, the bloodline of the Talos family was solidified by Karl, and the source of this was Karl himself.
