“Talent: Defect?” Wang Ye was stunned.

Nante’s eyes were filled with excitement. “Once 1 use my talent, it will throw my enemy into a space 1 created. Unless 1 withdraw the talent or they kill me, they won’t be able to leave.”

That was close. He had thought that Nante meant to join the enemy if he couldn’t beat them…

Wang Ye silently retorted.

“This is a talent that belongs to the release-type ability,” Xin Ran said. “It’s a fusion of the Manifestation Spell, Virtual Image Spell, and Illusion Spell. It creates a space for a duel. It’s considered to be somewhere in the middle of a good talent and an excellent talent.”

Wang Ye was curious. “What do you mean?”

Xin Ran said, “No matter how good a talent is, it ultimately depends on the user’s performance. A truly top-notch expert can unleash extraordinary power even if they only awaken the weakest level of talent. Of course, an expert with the highest potential can’t possibly have a weak talent. After all, talent also reflects one’s upper limit to a certain extent. Defect requires the user to also cultivate the release-type ability for it to truly reach the level of an excellent talent. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for it to have any effect on ability users of the same level.”

Wang Ye nodded.

Nante’s talent was best used against ability users who weren’t good at close combat.

“I don’t want to learn any ability spells.” Nante refused decisively.

Xin Ran said, “You don’t have to cultivate the other spells, but you must cultivate the Virtual Image Spell. Otherwise, you’ll waste another important ability of Defect, the Virtual Image Attack.”

“What’s that?” Nante was very curious.

Xin Ran said, “The talent of an ability user can often be combined with ability spells. The combination of Defect and the Virtual Image Spell will allow the user to release a virtual image that has strength similar to the user. It can attack the enemy regardless of distance.”

“So strong!” Nante’s eyes widened.

Xin Ran nodded. “Cosmic humans have long developed many applications for such a common talent. You’ll know when you have the chance to enter the human virtual cosmic.”

The human virtual cosmic, which only cosmic citizens had the qualifications to enter.

“A common talent…” Nante’s excitement was extinguished.

Xin Ran said, “Humans on four-star colony planets often awaken weak or ordinary talents. It’s already quite good for you to have awakened the Defect talent.”

“How are the levels divided?” Wang Ye asked.

Xin Ran replied, “Talents are divided into 9+1 levels. They are weak, ordinary, good, excellent, powerful, perfection, top, ultimate, and supreme. Those whose levels cannot be determined are special talents. The difference between the upper and lower limits is large, and they are usually possessed by special-type ability users.”

Nante felt emotional.

Of the 9+1 levels of talents, he was only in the middle of the third and fourth levels…

“Talent is often related to one’s cultivation and expertise. Logically speaking, what you should awaken should be a bloodline.” Xin Ran looked at Nante. “Because you’ve almost never cultivated as an ability user, and you broke through to the cosmic level with your perfect body. If awakening is guaranteed for you, the ratio of awakening a bloodline to talent should be 9999:1.”

“Nante’s talent is similar to the control of space and environment. Maybe it’s because of this,” Wang Ye thought.

It’s more likely to be related to the uniqueness of the life planet.” Xin Ran looked at Wang Ye. “Has anyone on your planet awakened their bloodline?”

Wang Ye shook his head.

“Uniqueness is more valuable in the cosmic. If the people your life planet can only awaken talent,” Xin Ran said. “Just this alone will make its value soar.”

Wang Ye smiled bitterly.

This wasn’t stock. If Blue Planet’s value skyrocketed, it wouldn’t benefit him at all…

After breaking through to the cosmic level, Nante went to the storage room to choose suitable level 1 Dark Energy-level equipment.

Wang Ye stayed in the quiet training room, carefully pondering the key to breaking through.

Xin Ran stood beside him gracefully like a sweet little sweetheart.

“Even though it’s stable to continue absorbing energy crystals, it’ll take about 20 cosmic days to raise my Brain Expansion Rate to 100%. It’s possible that my physical body will become stronger during this period, allowing me to break through the threshold, but overall speaking, it’s not efficient, and it’s too time-consuming.”

Nante’s breakthrough inspired Wang Ye.

The other party did not take the usual path.

Although he had been absorbing the energy stones that Xin Ran had created for him to improve his brain, the effect was minimal.

Even when he broke through, his Brain Expansion Rate had not reached 70%.

Nante had relied on his spear technique to break through.

Spatial environment control!

To put it simply, he had relied on his spear technique to pierce through that ceiling.

He had truly broken through with strength.

Although he had yet to fully comprehend the stage 4 Demon Annihilation Spear Technique, Nante’s control over the space and environment had already surpassed most cosmic-level warriors, even though he had yet to fuse with the cosmic.

What should he do?

“Actually, I have already reached the critical line.” Wang Ye knew very well.

Similar to Xueling back then, he was even closer to the cosmic level than Nante, but he needed a powerful force to break the threshold.

His willpower was enough. What he lacked was strength.

He could either accumulate strength or unleash his strength in one go. But how?

“Perhaps you can try the Radiant Star Blade.” Xin Ran’s gentle reminder sounded in his ear.

“Alright.” Wang Ye accepted the suggestion.

Although Xin Ran was at the New Star level, her knowledge far exceeded the cosmic level.

King Munro Amber placed the most precious Radiant Star Blade in the holographic sleep pod, which was a layer of transparent glass made of excellent material.

This was much more valuable than the common holographic helmet that Munro Jose had.

A holographic sleeping pod cost at least a million star points, which was equivalent to the price of a piece of level 2 Dark Energy-level equipment.

However, to King Munro Amber, that was just a small amount of money.

“Boom!” Wang Ye destroyed the sleep pod and took out a beautifully decorated scabbard from a hidden compartment on the side.

The short hilt of the Radiant Star Blade was inlaid with gems, and it was exceptionally gorgeous.

Level 3 unlimited dark energy weapon!

Just the word “unlimited” made the weapon worth hundreds of millions of star points.

Not only could basic and intermediate cosmic-level ability users use it, but even he could.

Clang!

Wang Ye unsheathed the Radiant Star Blade.

Radiating a golden light, it was longer than a dagger and shorter than a saber. It was shaped like a military saber with three layers of mystical engravings on it.

A dark energy weapon that could be used by both control and release-type ability users!

It was Wang Ye’s first time using a dark energy weapon, but he was no stranger to it.

Xin Ran had already taught him the correct posture.

The key to the mystical engravings was one word – trigger.

The mystical engravings of an ability user’s weapon could be triggered by one’s ability.

The mystical engravings of a warrior’s weapon could be triggered with combat energy.

“First, trigger the first layer of mystical engravings.” Wang Ye injected his ability.

“Unlimited” did not mean that there were no restrictions.

If one couldn’t even trigger the mystical engravings, it was like having a peerless weapon but being unable to lift it.

A huge amount of ability poured in, and the mystical engraving instantly lit up.

But it was far from enough.

It had nothing to do with the Compression Spell. The activation of the mystical engraving usually required a large amount of ability.

He couldn’t cast the Condensation Spell yet, so that was hard, but he had energy crystals.

Wang Ye absorbed energy while releasing it at the same time.

Soon, the first layer of mystical engravings lit up with a white light.

“The release-type ability spells have been strengthened.” Wang Ye instantly released an energy ball.

The condensation was faster and the compression was stronger. When released with the Radiant Star Blade, its power increased exponentially!

In the next moment, an ability shield appeared on him. It was even thicker, and its energy was purer. Its defense had increased greatly!

Then, the first layer of mystical engravings on the Radiant Star Blade dimmed slightly.

Wang Ye’s ability surged in once more, and the mystical engravings deepened and became bright again.

“So this is a dark energy weapon.” Wang Ye quickly got used to it.

The first and second layers of mystical engravings were both for ability amplification.

To begin with, King Munro Amber’s main focus was the control-type ability, and his secondary focus was the release type.

Again!

Energy crystals were consumed, and the second layer of mystical engravings was activated.

The advantage of an unlimited ability weapon was revealed – He didn’t need to maintain it for a long time with his own ability. As long as it was activated in advance, it could be used for a long time. Maintaining it consumed much less ability than activating it.

“The control-type ability spells have been strengthened.” Wang Ye used it skillfully.

This layer of mystical engravings did not increase his strength much, but it was very useful in combat and other aspects.

For example, he had never been able to control a New Star ability user, but if he activated the second layer of mystical engravings before casting a Spirit Spell, he would be able to greatly increase the success rate of controlling such a target.

If he used the effect with the cosmic-level Rein Spell, the impact would be even more intense!

“The third layer of mystical engravings.” Wang Ye activated the last layer of mystical engravings.

A large amount of energy crystals was consumed to activate the third layer of mystical engravings which only high-level cosmic ability users could activate.

Whoosh!

Three layers of light shone brightly on the Radiant Star Blade.

Information from the Radiant Star Blade appeared in his mind.

This was the weapon’s special ability – Radiant Star Chess.

After casting it, the ability would envelop an area and turn it into a chessboard.

The greater the ability capacity, the larger the chessboard.

It could turn anything that contained energy on the chessboard into black-and-white chess pieces.

He could control the chess pieces freely as the chess player.

With the control-type ability as the core, combined with release-type support. This was a very powerful special ability!

There was a limit to the Manipulation Spell.

Last time, he could only control two of Lu Jie’s subordinates at the same time.

This was because each individual displayed different combat prowess.

In contrast, Radiant Star Chess worked by directly controlling the chessboard, with the individuals that had supposedly needed to have been controlled by the Manipulation Spell turned into the same type of chess pieces.

He could control all chess pieces freely!

“It has greatly improved my group battle ability.” Wang Ye sighed.

As long as his ability capacity was sufficient, he alone could be compared to an army.

“Luckily the requirement isn’t the cosmic-level Condensation Spell or Rein

Spell, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to learn it in 10 cosmic days.”

Although such a special ability that was combined with an ability was difficult to cultivate, he knew the key ability spells.

The only thing left for him to master was how to use the Radiant Star Blade and combine them perfectly.

Cultivate!

Control the Radiant Star Blade!

Wang Ye knew what Xin Ran was thinking.

The Radiant Star Blade was a level 3 Dark Energy-level equipment.

Its strongest special ability, Radiant Star Chess, had reached the level of a cosmic-level ability user.

To use cosmic-level strength to stimulate and budge the cosmic-level barrier was like building a house from a strategic height.

It was similar to Nante’s previous breakthrough.

It was feasible!

Besides, the practice of the Radiant Star Blade had been a must, to begin with.

After all, to deal with the Munro Guards, strengthening himself was the most important.

He had to equip himself with Munro King Amber’s few treasures to raise his combat strength to the highest level.

It was imminent!

The pressure pushed Wang Ye forward.

In just three cosmic days, he mastered the Radiant Star Blade. By the fifth cosmic day, he had it completely under his control!

There was only one step left in breaking through to the cosmic level..
