Chapter 764: What Realm Am I In That Would Make Me Envy You?

~7 min read 1,270 words

With the Bone Spear spell star, the added Bone Armor formed a Four-Star Spell.

The four stars blaze fiercely, attracting each other and rotating endlessly.

At their center, a wondrous substance indescribable in words is being generated.

This substance carries a strong aura of law; it is the embodiment of the Undead Law.

After embodiment, the law's comprehension Difficulty drops by tens of thousands of times; Jiang Chen can use it to quickly grasp the Undead Law.

The formation of the Four-Star Spell system triggers violent tremors in the Soul World.

The luster of the four stars also brightens considerably.

Jiang Chen knows the spell's power has increased again.

The level now poses a lethal threat; it is no longer like before when it could only cause a slight skin wound to a level‑96 High God.

Jiang Chen sensed his own soul power and found he still has surplus.

He immediately, without stopping, headed to the Skill Space.

Antares came to his senses and saw the newly formed Four-Star Spell system.

"There are more than two star spell systems, and both exceed three stars."

"This world has gone mad; how could such a being appear?"

"No wonder the Great World Rune wants to stop the brat; if the Great World Rune weren't pressing him, he wouldn't know how powerful he could become."

"A monster is a monster; it's hard to gauge with ordinary logic."

Antares muttered to himself; he has nothing left to say to Jiang Chen.

Watching Jiang Chen transport one Skill Star Core after another with no effort—others would die after moving one or two, but Jiang Chen does it as easily as eating and drinking.

Comparing people, it really makes one furious.

Antares repeatedly examined the little black dot.

Still, this is fine; it allows Antares to probe its tier, and each step forward is extremely difficult.

It often requires a huge price or a great amount of time.

Or perhaps, one can encounter a once‑in‑a‑lifetime opportunity. For Antares, watching a star's formation and the instant appearance of the little black dot is such an opportunity.

And not just once; he watched it dozens of times. Antares suddenly felt that all these years of being trapped here were worth it!

Who could watch that little black dot so many times?

Even if someone of the same race transformed a star, who would dare open the Soul World and let them come in without restraint?

There is none; not a single one.

Back then Jiang Chen only said: "You are my friend."

Until now, in this form, perhaps that's also a kind of fate.

Antares thought of his life among the Dragon Race and realized he has hardly any friends.

Among his own kind he has no friends, yet he made a friend

of the tribe, and it's the kind of friend who can open the Soul World.

Fate, indeed, is marvelous.

Soon another Skill Star Core was dragged over.

"Ready?" Jiang Chen asked with a smile.

Antares ground his claws, "What preparation? I can go at any moment."

The scene that had played out many times before unfolded again.

As the spell star formed, a strange sensation swept over his body again.

"Another passive spell!" "Which one could it be?" Now only two passive skills remain: 【State Immunity】 and 【Undead Spirit】.

Both of these passive skills are very useful.

In fact, every skill Jiang Chen has is useful.

And unlike many classes, there aren't one or two irrelevant skills.

The passive spell's star, isolated and ancient, seems to exude a noble aura, unlike other spell stars.

That bearing is clearly evident, markedly distinct.

【Elemental Resistance】 and 【Physical Resistance】 are the same.

When the star fully stabilizes, the spell information also pops out.

【Undead Spirit (Fusion 100%)】: Members of the Undead Legion, when hit by a fatal attack, do not die but Rebirth into peak condition to continue fighting. Each undead has five Rebirth chances within five minutes. Spell cooldown: three minutes.

It changed; the skill changed; Jiang Chen's gaze also changed.

From skill to spell, the change is quite significant.

Rebirth no longer returns to Summoning Space; it revives on the spot, returning to peak condition.

In five minutes one can Rebirth five times, more than double the previous two.

And the cooldown is reduced to three minutes; the skill's duration is five minutes.

However, Jiang Chen always pairs this technique with his innate talent, so the shorter cooldown is of little use.

Regardless, after becoming a spell, its practicality increased dramatically.

Jiang Chen feels he is now harder to kill.

As long as he doesn't face a True God, his safety is essentially guaranteed.

Super‑God level, even Super‑God Ninth Tier, trying to kill him would be a headache. It's not that he can't be killed, just that it's difficult.

Jiang Chen told Antares about this spell; Antares remained very calm, showing no reaction.

He only gave him a long look, "You should have the Turtle Race's Bloodline."

Jiang Chen was unfazed, smiling, "You're just jealous."

"What realm am I in that would make me envy you? What dream talk are you saying?" Antares wore a look of disdain.

Jiang Chen did not argue with it. He plunged back into the Skill Space.

From Antares's eyes it was clear that the claim of not envying was false.

That guy had envied before, let alone now.

Re‑entering the Skill Space, his Soul Power was no longer so abundant.

He had already consecutively moved seven Skill Star Cores; each added Spell Star would occupy a portion of Soul Power. Each Spell Star, besides during the transport and conversion—

…requires a large amount of Soul Power, and after conversion its maintenance also consumes a large amount of Soul Power.

Only surplus Soul Power can be used to transport Skill Star Cores.

The previous feeling of inexhaustible Soul Power vanished, and transporting is no longer as easy as before.

The Skill Space seemed to sense Jiang Chen's change, as if mocking him.

As the Skill Star Cores in the Skill Space dwindled, the space's binding force on the cores grew rapidly stronger.

This also added difficulty to Jiang Chen's robber career.

The Skill Space mounted effective resistance, but unfortunately it still could not stop Jiang Chen, the great robber.

After half a day, the eighth Skill Star Core this time was transported out.

"It should be the last one," Jiang Chen felt his remaining Soul Power, knowing he could not continue. Using it to move Skill Star Cores seemed insufficient. He still had some surplus Soul Power, but could only wait to upgrade before trying again.

The Star Core, estimated that after two more upgrades—at most three levels—it could clear the remaining seven Skill Star Cores in the Skill Space. Then the Skill Space would be emptied.

Currently at Level 86; if luck is good at Level 88, if luck is bad, then Level 89.

Of course, the best is to clear the Skill Space at Level 88, using the remainder to tinker with Talents, right?

The Talent World is the hardest; Jiang Chen has no clue how to obtain the three Talents.

Jiang Chen is not in a hurry; he works with purpose but cannot be impatient.

The Skill Star Core, enveloped by Soul Power, entered the Soul World, beginning its spell conversion.

No accidents, and there will be no accidents.

With Antares as an accomplice, Jiang Chen meets his end fittingly. Antares watches the little black dot, Jiang Chen watches the star.

This new Spell Star became a member of the Soul World, then rushed headlong toward its kindred.
