Ye Yun gazed into the boundless darkness, unable to suppress a sense of relief. Fortunately, he had not chosen to ascend within his own empire, as the annihilation of an entire star sector would have had severe repercussions, at the very least impacting his authority.
Although Ye Yun possessed little authority at present, the obliteration of his own forces, regardless of the circumstances, would have been an unbearable burden on his conscience. As for this star sector, which was not yet under his dominion, its demise was of no consequence.
The collapse of the void was no trivial matter. It was not merely an implosion but also involved the devouring maw of black holes. This insatiable consumption spread like wildfire, gradually expanding and even threatening the stability of other star sectors’ dimensional walls through interdimensional gates.
Therefore, Ye Yun could not allow the black hole to continue its rampage. He utilized his understanding of spatial laws to reinforce the interdimensional gates at two locations within the affected star sector.
Although the void had collapsed over a vast area, Ye Yun could not achieve complete containment. However, he managed to secure it for several months.
By then, Ye Yun was confident that with the supply of law fragments from the Black Ant, his comprehension of spatial laws would reach perfection. At that point, not only could he reinforce the void, but he might even be able to prevent its collapse entirely. Furthermore, if he achieved the status of an Emperor, he could even create a new star sector.
After reinforcing the gates, Ye Yun finally had the time to assess the changes within himself.
Firstly, in the real world, his strength felt peculiar. He seemed to have shattered some sort of barrier, his power far exceeding his previous level by severalfold. This was a stark contrast to the attribute data reflected in the game.
His in-game attribute points had surged by four to five thousand times previously, yet his strength in the real world had only increased by less than ten percent. Now, his overall in-game attribute points had increased by just over three times, while his real-world strength had doubled. Moreover, the inner world of his dantian had become more complete, with the four laws he mastered gestating within it.
Ye Yun was unsure of the implications of this, but he knew that he had made the right choice by evolving his profession.
With a thought, Ye Yun’s entire being dissolved into the void, not the slightest trace of his presence leaking out.
Within the heavenly Dao, Ye Yun examined his attribute panel, his heart filled with excitement.
—Creation
Health Coefficient: 40, Dantian Value Coefficient: 30, Destructive Power Coefficient: 1.5, Physical Body Strength Coefficient: 5.0.
Profession Description: Creation, also known as the God of Creation, is the first sentient being born in every cloud system and the sole profession within each cloud system. Their birth signifies their mission to create, and their creation predestines them for a sacred and supreme profession, hence the name Creation.
This new profession, aside from destructive power, had all other attributes more than three times that of other professions. Although destructive power, with the talent bonus, still far surpassed other attributes by tens of millions of times, it appeared much more palatable than before. Most importantly, the Black Ant’s chances of long-term survival in the outer heavens had significantly increased.
This profession advancement also granted three exclusive skills.
—Exclusive Skill 1: Resurrection·True (Passive) — Divine Skill
Prerequisites: Player comprehends twelve strands of the Great Dao of Life.
After being killed by an enemy, the player can automatically resurrect on the spot within ten seconds. Upon resurrection, health will be at 80% of maximum, and all negative effects on the physical body will be dispelled. This skill effect can accumulate, current accumulated times: 1/5, cooldown: 3 days (300 real-world days).
—Exclusive Skill 2: Countercurrent — Divine Skill:
Prerequisites: Twelve strands of the Great Dao of Space and Time.
Description: The player can utilize the Great Dao of Time, based on the foundation of Space, to expend infinite Dantian Value and reverse time within a designated space, allowing the player to return to a specific point in time. The cost depends on the duration of time reversal. Cooldown: 10 days (100 real-world days).
—Exclusive Skill 3: Creation·True — Divine Skill:
Prerequisites: Comprehend twelve strands of the corresponding Great Dao.
Description: The player can describe the desired scene or item through divine sense, expending Dantian Value to create them according to the player’s description. Each use consumes Dantian Value depending on the scene or item created. Cooldown: 2 days (200 real-world days).
"Holy crap!" Ye Yun exclaimed, his composure shattered as he stared at his two new skills.
All players in the game world shared a common ailment: the ability to revive an infinite number of times within the game world, with some professions even possessing resurrection skills that allowed for immediate revival on the spot. However, such heaven-defying skills were universally limited to the game world, with no means of manifesting in the real world.
But now?
His resurrection skill could actually affect him in the real world! Although the cooldown for resurrection in the real world reached two hundred days, for any player, this skill could not be described as merely heaven-defying. After all, who would reject the opportunity to live a few more times? Moreover, the number of resurrections could accumulate!
The second skill was even more self-explanatory, its terrifying nature evident from its description.
As for the divine skill of Creation, with its possession, Ye Yun could truly achieve the feat of conjuring something from nothing, of generating existence from non-existence. If possible, Ye Yun even wondered if this skill could directly create a life form!
*Hoo…*
Ye Yun exhaled deeply. He had been troubled by the acquisition of divine skills just the day before, but now, a single profession advancement had not only resolved his worries but also bestowed upon him three divine skills.
Although their icons were gray, indicating that he could not yet use them, they had ultimately solved his immediate problems.
In addition to these three skills, Ye Yun's remnant calamity, 'Ice Phosphor,' had evolved into 'Three Lives Fire,' its color changing from icy blue to crimson purple. This evolution represented a leap of several grades, enhancing his True Fire Dharma Idol as well. His daily attribute point gain of one hundred billion had increased to five hundred billion!
Including his talent and other daily attribute point gains, Ye Yun would receive over sixty billion attribute points each day, even if he did nothing. While it still took a trillion points to add them, these gratuitous daily attribute points were enough to make all the great powers of the Ten Directions Cosmos, including the Demon Butterfly, pale in comparison.
Next were the two spirit artifacts rewarded by the system. Both possessed the regal style of ancient emperors: one a flat-topped crown (Ping Tian Guan) and the other a long purple robe.
The two spirit artifacts shimmered with ethereal light before retracting it, appearing not ostentatious but exceptionally noble.
