Chapter 583: So The System Was Here All Along
The laws possessed an incredible power, enough to captivate anyone who experienced them.
From the moment Lin Moyu began his class awakening, he stimulated all his strength, unleashing his soul force, and ignited the energy within his skill star cores.
The confluence of these three powers culminated in a force grander than any formation, erupting outward to draw the resonance of laws.
The descent of the laws marked the beginning of his class awakening, quickly pushing his attributes to the limit, then breaking through it, triggering class sublimation.
As Antares had instructed, he had succeeded without any external aid.
Now, with the Talent Divine Stone activated, Lin Moyu embarked on an undertaking that promised far more gain than loss.
Following the starlight from the Talent Divine Stone, he pursued it relentlessly.
Until a rift appeared before him, offering a glimpse of the talent world.
Through that rift, Lin Moyu saw two distinct flames.
They burned fiercely, both radiating a brilliant purple light, imbued with an air of mystery and nobility.
These two extraordinary flames were shrouded in law aura, appearing to reign supreme, looking down from on high upon all living beings.
The two purple flames represented his talents.
One was the unique godly talent, Comprehensive Amplification, the source of his formidable battle prowess.
Without it, no matter how strong his skills were, he could never have defeated foes so far above his level.
The other purple flame was also a unique godly talent, one that granted him great survivability and boundless spirit force.
Both were powerful, equal in standing though differing in nature.
As the starlight from the Talent Divine Stone gathered in the talent world, it gradually condensed into a wisp of golden fire.
The new flame flickered weakly, radiating a soft, golden light.
Compared to the purple flames, it seemed fragile, but still carried law aura.
To Lin Moyu’s eyes, its essence was clearly inferior.
Even as more starlight poured in to strengthen it, its nature defined its limits. It could never surpass the purple flames.
Lin Moyu speculated that purple flames represented unique godly talents, the highest and rarest tier.
Golden flames, too, might represent godly talents, but not unique; others might possess similar ones.
Though slightly disappointed, he did not waver. He steadied his heart.
“Talents can be moved to the soul and nourished by soul force.”
“Then… soul force can serve as their fuel. If I pour soul force into it now, can I strengthen this talent?”
Without hesitation, he acted.
The window for talent awakening was fleeting; the flame was still forming. Miss it, and the chance would vanish forever.
He channeled his soul force through the crack, into the talent world.
But disappointment struck. His soul force could not merge with the forming flame.
It gathered separately, unable to touch the golden, no matter how he tried.
At last, the golden flame was completely formed.
A notification surfaced in his mind
[Acquired talent: Reconstitution]
[Reconstitution: after summons truly die, they will undergo reconstitution. The reconstituted summons will be restored to their peak state. This talent can be activated once every 5 minutes.]
Reading the description, Lin Moyu instantly realized that this was another life-saving ability.
His undead troops were already infamously hard to kill.
Even when destroyed, they could resurrect three times: twice through his skill, each time at full strength, and a third time through Undying Ring.
To truly erase them, one had to kill them four times.
And as long as his undead army endured, so would he.
In essence, Lin Moyu himself had three extra lives. Anyone who wanted him dead would have to kill him four times over.
The new talent merely granted one extra life, with a cooldown of 5 minutes.
By that measure, it was actually weaker than his passive skill.
The talent was kind of weak.
To others, this might have been a godly talent, a golden ticket defying death itself.
But to him, it was merely icing on the cake; whether he had it or not barely mattered.
An enemy capable of killing him four times could surely do it five.
The talent awakened by the Talent Divine Stone indeed wasn’t especially impressive.
In the end, the power of external tools could never surpass one’s own power.
Lin Moyu felt a twinge of regret. Yet, he failed to notice that although the talent had awakened, the gate of the talent world had not yet closed.
His soul force continued to pour into that world.
His soul force continuously poured into the talent world.
The influx of soul force was immense. In the blink of an eye, half of it had already entered the talent world.
Lin Moyu’s soul force had already reached God-level. As it converged in the talent world, it began to spark.
With a soft crackle, a golden flame took form.
His soul shook, jolting Lin Moyu back to his senses.
In the talent world, he beheld the new flame.
“A fourth talent…”
Everyone knew that a person could possess only three talents.
Even Antares had warned that exceeding three would cause the soul to collapse.
But now… a fourth talent was forming before his very eyes.
Was his soul about to collapse?
Lin Moyu, however, felt no instability whatsoever.
“The system!”
Lin Moyu’s instincts told him this anomaly was connected to it.
More soul force poured forth, nourishing the fourth flame, and it too shone with golden light.
“Isn’t this exactly what I hoped for?”
“A talent awakened through the Talent Divine Stone, and another awakened through myself…”
“Even if neither is strong on its own, the system will merge them, into something greater.”
Excitement welled up within him. He waited for the system to appear, expectant.
Moments later, the new flame stabilized, and a notification appeared.
[Acquired talent: Rebirth]
[Rebirth:…]
Before he could read further, the notification vanished.
Then, a familiar voice, one Lin Moyu hadn’t heard in a long time, echoed in his mind.
[The system detected the host has acquired new talents. Commencing optimization.]
Lin Moyu’s eyes lit up, “The system… it’s really back!”
In the outside world, a faint smile curved his lips.
Antares frowned, “What’s this guy smiling about?”
“What’s so amusing about a class awakening?”
In the pitch-black Dreadland, Dreadbeasts lunged toward Lin Moyu.
But they were shredded into pieces by an unseen force before they could reach him.
Antares’s power shielded him. The Dreadbeasts couldn’t even approach.
Antares couldn’t understand just what Lin Moyu found so funny.
He decided that once Lin Moyu’s class awakening ended, he had to uncover the truth.
At that moment, shock flashed across Lin Moyu’s face.
Within the talent world, he witnessed an utterly astounding scene.
A Necromancer in a long robe suddenly appeared.
Raising his stave, he waved it lightly, and the talent world started to tremble.
Two vast, transparent hands materialized, seized the twin golden flames, and brought them together.
Those flames represented two distinct talents. Fusion should have been impossible.
But at this moment, the Necromancer unleashed a law, and under its mysterious power, the two flames slowly started to merge.
Lin Moyu could only stare, dumbfounded. This defied everything he knew.
He had seen this Necromancer before. Each time a skill awakened and there was a demonstration, that same figure appeared.
Even the first time he entered the Immemorial Battlefield, when the Abyssal Phantasm trapped him in an illusion, it was this Necromancer who saved him.
Lin Moyu had never understood what this being truly was.
Now, realization struck him like lightning.
“It’s the system.”
“This is the form the system manifests.”
“The system has been here all along!”
It didn’t just appear during talent and skill fusion. It also appeared when he awoke a skill, demonstrating the skill for him.
The system was far more mysterious than he had ever imagined.
The two flames quickly merged, and from their center, a streak of purple light burst forth.
It spread rapidly, consuming the gold until the entire flame blazed purple.
In the talent world, three purple flames now hovered in a perfect triangle, each blazing brilliantly.
[Optimization complete.]
[The Reconstitution and Rebirth talents successfully fused.]
[Host has acquired the unique godly talent: Comprehensive Rebirth.]
