Chapter 761: Just Ordinary, No Reason for Pride
Antares really does look left with one eye and right with the other; the sight becomes very odd, a bit like crossed eyes. Jiang Chen almost couldn't hold back a laugh, but then thought it was improper and forced himself to suppress it.
The two tiny black dots had an aura denser than before, and Jiang Chen recorded them firmly.
Antares, multitasking, was completely captivated, lost in thought and unable to extricate himself.
Jiang Chen ignored it and instead felt the comfort coming from his soul.
Spending soul power, through feedback, to gain an increase in soul tier—by the numbers, that's a big profit.
Soul power can recover, but a soul tier increase is eternal.
Using something that can be restored by Regeneration to obtain an eternal boost—if that's not a big profit, what is?
Advanced a small step.
The soul tier advanced again on the path of Level 94.
The increase is small, but any progress is a good thing.
Jiang Chen feels that when he has transferred all the skill star cores, his soul tier should reach Level 95.
The spell stars just transformed unexpectedly intertwined and connected, directly forming a Dual-Star Spell.
Then they flew toward the Dual-Star Spell of 【Summon Skeleton Divine Warrior】 and 【Summon Elemental Lich】, apparently to join them.
Jiang Chen was stunned, "It can't be that coincidental." There were still a dozen‑plus skill star cores left, five of which belonged to summoning skills.
Unexpectedly, the two that came out this time both turned out to be exactly as the facts indicated.
The four spell stars linked to each other; while each rotated on its own axis, they also orbited the other spell stars.
They operated very stably, highly regular.
It looked like a wonderful dance performance.
"Four-Star Spell"
"When using a Dual-Star Spell, the spells can interact with each other; it's just more convenient, adds many uses, and does not increase the spell's power."
"Starting from a Three-Star Spell, the spell's power begins to increase noticeably; each additional star thereafter greatly boosts the power."
"Now it's a Four-Star Spell; the spell is certainly stronger, but it's uncertain whether it can break the limit."
The limit Jiang Chen thinks of is his own soul limit.
The spell's power ceiling is capped by one's own soul tier; even if broken, it only adds a little.
Level 94 can at most slay Level 95, without causing a qualitative change.
If one can break this limit, that would be a true breakthrough. It would let the spell bear a law. After all, others who have grasped the law beyond Level 96—
the spell's power would increase dramatically.
As the mastery of the law deepens in the future, the gap may now be not too large, but it could grow larger.
Surpassing the limit to compensate for the lack of a law. Jiang Chen hopes his spell can break through.
【Summon Skeleton Divine Mage (Fusion Rate 100%): Summon a Skeleton Divine Mage, who normally lies dormant within a star, linked to the Undead World, and can descend to the mortal realm when needed. The Skeleton Divine Mage's combat power is determined by the owner's soul tier.】
【Summon Skeleton Soul Archer (Fusion Rate 100%): Summon a Skeleton Soul Archer, who normally lies dormant within a star, linked to the Undead World, and can descend to the mortal realm when needed. The Skeleton Soul Archer's combat power is determined by the owner's soul tier.】
My three major skeleton summons are all gathered.
And together with Summon Elemental Lich they form a Four-Star Spell.
Jiang Chen felt a surge of excitement, almost unable to resist checking the attributes.
But in the end he restrained himself.
He plans to reveal the final mystery later; perhaps even a Six-Star Spell.
There will also be summoning skills dragged out, forming a Five-Star Spell to make the surprise even more intense.
"Good boy, it's a Four-Star Spell."
Antares finally came to his senses.
Jiang Chen asked, "In the Great World, are there many people who possess a Four-Star Spell?"
Antares glanced at Jiang Chen and said, "It's okay. Think about it, the Great World is boundless, filled with countless races, and geniuses are innumerable."
Four-Star Spells are not common, but they're certainly not rare.
"Really?" Jiang Chen expressed doubt.
Antares hummed, "You dare question me?"
Jiang Chen openly questioned Antares, "That's different from what you said before; you used to say multi‑star spells are rare."
The rarity of spells refers to Six‑Star and Seven‑Star spells, Antares immediately explained, "When I said multi‑star spells are rare, I meant those. Four‑Star Spells are just ordinary."
"Why are you spouting so much nonsense? Hurry up and continue, I'm itching to act."
Antares kept urging, looking clearly impatient.
Jiang Chen chuckled, and his soul's will once again headed toward the skill space.
Antares left Jiang Chen's soul world, then muttered in a voice only he could hear, "Can't let the brat get too proud."
"But I'm not lying; Four‑Star Spells may be uncommon, yet they're certainly not few."
"If the brat really manages a Six‑Star or Seven‑Star Spell, that would be truly…"
Antares's eyes glittered as he looked at Jiang Chen, already thinking Jiang Chen's talent surpasses that of monsters, like a beast.
If Jiang Chen could still obtain Six‑Star or Seven‑Star Spells, Antares didn't know what language to use to describe it.
More soul power is needed to maintain it.
Only the surplus can be used by Jiang Chen to transport skill star cores.
He sensed his surplus soul power, moved three skill star cores, and Jiang Chen felt he still had plenty of extra strength.
He felt he could move five or six more.
Jiang Chen made a rough estimate; it should be no problem.
He never overestimates himself, nor underestimates himself. As the skill star cores in the skill space dwindle, the constraints of the skill space grow stronger.
But it still couldn't stop Jiang Chen, who moved like a robber.
It can only be said that Jiang Chen's Soul Power is too strong and too pure.
The Skill Space can only be like a petty grumbling woman, venting complaints, yet it has no way to deal with Jiang Chen at all.
Soon, the Skill Star Core was transported to the Soul Realm, and Jiang Chen, without a word, began injecting Soul Power.
At this point, the Soul Power was no longer as abundant as before; even a single one could not be transformed into a star in one go.
Antares gave a wicked grin and made a move toward Jiang Chen.
He watched the Art Star rise into the air and merge into the already‑formed Four-Star Art system.
He forcibly turned the Four-Star Art into a Five-Star Art.
"What a coincidence,"
Jiang Chen, the master, didn't know how to describe his luck.
Another summoning‑type Skill Star Core—his eye for these things was perhaps too accurate.
"Five-Star Art!"
A thunderous sound suddenly rang in his Soul.
Antares, shocked, looked at the Five-Star Art.
Jiang Chen asked oddly, "Isn't Four-Star Art common? Five-Star Art shouldn't be that rare either."
Regarding Antares's reaction, Jiang Chen seriously doubted the truth of its words.
If it truly were common, why such a huge reaction?
It seems Antares didn't tell the truth.
Antares said, "Four-Star Art is very common; Five-Star Art is much rarer, at least a hundred times fewer than Four-Star Art."
"However, the Great World has many people, and many still possess Five-Star Art; you must not become arrogant."
Jiang Chen looked at Antares, trying to read something from the creature's eyes.
Antares, feeling uneasy, "What am I looking at, the Art? What is this?"
【Summon Death Knight (Fusion 100%): Summon a Death Knight, who normally lies dormant within a star, linked to the Undead Realm, and can descend to the mortal world when needed. The Death Knight's combat power will be determined by the master's Soul Tier.】
As the Five-Star Art took shape, the Soul Realm suddenly roared, beginning to quake and tremble violently without cease.
