Chapter 6 Holy Domain
It was a very strange feeling, as if his soul had undergone a transformation and his body had become younger. Karl knew that this was the power of the Saint Realm level.
In what seemed like an instant, yet also like eternity, when Karl came to his senses, he found that he could see a strange color in the sky and earth, and he knew it was the power of the wind.

Karl Talos quickly opened the familiar attribute panel, and sure enough, many attributes had been updated.

The online store has been updated.
Karl first glanced at the shop, one of the main ways to improve himself, and saw many good items at the top.
For example, amulets range from basic to intermediate levels, and an intermediate amulet is enough to withstand a full-force attack from a level nine attacker for an hour.
There are also aptitude enhancement talismans, which can be used to improve cultivation aptitude, raising the cultivation limit from level six warrior to level eight warrior.
Many of the items updated in the shop are designed for those with lower cultivation levels, while others are treasures that can enhance Karl's combat power or provide other benefits.
For example, pseudo-divine weapons are as hard as divine artifacts, but they have never been nurtured by the divine power of a god-level expert. Such divine weapons are extremely rare for experts at the Saint Realm level.
There was also something Karl was particularly interested in: a complete wind-attribute item.
[Element of Wind], [Wind Walk], [Mastery of Speed], [Mastery of Slowness], etc.
These are all profound laws, but not only are these things expensive to accumulate points, but they also have prerequisites for use.
【Name: Wind Element】
Price: 10000000
[Effect: Allows direct comprehension of the profound mysteries of the 'Wind Element']
[Usage Requirements: Perfection of the power of Heaven and Earth]
Karl was extremely envious. Although the price was exorbitant, amounting to tens of millions, given the current size of Karl's territory, once the population registration reached its limit, the daily points he could obtain would be substantial, and the speed would actually be faster compared to a level one territory.
After all, although level nine warriors have some status on the Yulan Continent, they are still mortals, even if they possess extraordinary power.
A level nine warrior can serve as a duke in a kingdom or establish their own duchy. However, while such treatment seems high, other strong individuals at the same level will also covet the title of duke or the status of a king. For example, in the Chaotic Territory, there are dozens of duchies that fight each other. But once a warrior reaches the Saint Realm level, they will have the power to rule a duchy. Even if a new kingdom is established on the Yulan Continent, no one will say anything.
Even among level nine experts, many still focus on power and influence. Once they reach the Saint Realm, their focus shifts to how to become a god. As for worldly power and influence, most will not concern themselves with it as long as their descendants are not destroyed.
The reason for this, besides changes in strength, is more importantly lifespan.
No matter how powerful a level nine warrior is, their lifespan is only five hundred years. Once their lifespan reaches its limit, if they cannot break through, they will eventually turn into dust. On the other hand, even if a Saint-level expert has just entered the Saint Realm, their lifespan is infinite.
The Holy Domain possesses the ability to live forever. Perhaps only those who have just entered the Holy Domain and whose mindset has not yet changed can achieve this. Cultivation in the Holy Domain is inherently slow, and it often requires enduring the passage of time. A hundred years is still short, but time can span a thousand years or even several thousand years. If one's descendants do not become Holy Domain members, they will eventually pass away. The inhabitants of the territory are like leeks, changing every few decades or hundreds of years.
Therefore, for those Saint-level powerhouses, levels seven and eight are not worth mentioning. Only those level nine powerhouses will pay some attention to them, but that's all. Unless they are geniuses who are expected to break through to the Saint-level and reach the same level as them in the future, they can be treated equally.
Karl values this point when developing his territory. As long as he can steadily reach the Saintly level, his territory will develop rapidly, and may even grow into a kingdom with at least hundreds of millions of residents.
A power protected by a Holy Domain would not dare to harbor any ambitions from a Level 9 expert unless a powerhouse of the same level intervened. And Holy Domain experts rarely value mortal kingdoms.
This is why there are many Saint-level experts on the Yulan Continent, but very few Kingdom-level forces. Instead, there are more high-end forces, such as Ernst Academy, which has the support of the Saint-level, but its members are all elites among elites and geniuses among geniuses. They are strong, but their numbers are limited.
When Karl was a level nine warrior, he lived peacefully in a small border town. He never refused any of the new recruits that joined the Anlan Kingdom every year. As for the few geniuses who were lucky enough to join the Holy Domain forces, Karl also gave them his full support.
After his soul underwent a transformation, Karl naturally acquired the ability to transmit his voice.
His lips didn't open or close, but his voice reached the ears of the family's children directly.
A moment later, three men and two women strode into the heart of the mansion.
The three men and two women are the only five Level 7 warriors in the Talos family: his eldest son, Lin Talos; his second son's son, Colin Talos; and Lin Talos's grandson, Raylos Talos.
There are also two great-granddaughters from the fourth generation: Lia Talos and Lina Talos.
Karl himself was only twenty-six years old when he got married, and his first child was born when he was twenty-eight. Now he is 268 years old, more than two hundred years of which is the history of many dynasties in his previous life.
Two hundred years is almost a lifetime for a level seven warrior. His eldest son's lifespan is also nearing its end. As for his other sons and daughters, they either died in the army or reached the end of their lifespan and passed away early.
The Talos family has been around for over two hundred years, but Karl himself has only average talent. What kind of talent could his children possibly have? It would take a lifetime of hard work to reach the peak of a level six warrior. Even if Karl later provided cultivation enhancements for the family members, only five of them could possibly become level seven warriors.
As for the others, they have long been buried by the passage of time.
