Chapter 775: Antares Has Gone Mad!

Soul Burning (Fusion 100%): Burns the target's soul; duration, effect, and range are determined by the soul tier.

Soul Flame became Soul Burning

What was once a skill limited to a single entity has now evolved into a group spell.

Of course, it can also be cast on a single target, and its duration and damage can be freely controlled.

As one of the soul-type skills, it, together with Soul Curse and Soul Toxicity, constitutes the soul-type three-star spell system.

Similar to Soul Toxicity, Soul Burning also targets the soul, but its effect is more intense and direct.

It can even, according to Jiang Chen's will, instantly unleash massive damage.

However, compared with Undead Gaze, it is more flexible in controlling damage magnitude.

Once the three-star spell system is built, the spell's power rises markedly.

Gazing at the twinkling stars within the soul and the motion of the galaxy, it feels as if one has truly become part of the cosmic sky.

Compared with the expansive skill space, the soul world appears especially lively.

Now, only four skill star cores remain in the skill space.

They are the passive skill 【Status Immunity】, the summoning skills 【Summon Skeleton Giant Dragon】, 【Undead Resurrection】, and 【Infinite Fusion】. Summon Skeleton Giant Dragon needs no introduction; once introduced, it will merge into the multi-star summoning spell system, forming a seven-star spell that further enhances spell power.

The most puzzling to Jiang Chen remains the 【Undead Resurrection】 skill; it appears to be a summoning type yet seems to transcend the summoning category, making it hard to define.

While Jiang Chen admires his own soul world, Antares also admires Jiang Chen's soul world.

It counts the stars, "Good, 18 spell stars, three multi-star spell systems."

Jiang Chen sensed a trace of shock in its tone, "How many spell stars can strong beings of other races have?"

Antares instinctively replied, "That's hard to say; it varies. The few have four or five, the many have about ten."

Suddenly it seemed to realize something, "Of course, that's for ordinary strong ones; those genius strong ones are still impressive, and many have over twenty spell stars."

Jiang Chen said, "My skill space still has four skill star cores; once transferred, it can exceed twenty, and among them there is a summoning skill that can form a seven-star spell system."

"Seven-star," Antares murmured, "If only there could be nine stars."

Jiang Chen asked, "What is the highest possible number of stars?" Antares replied in a low voice, "There is a legend in the Great World that the maximum can reach ten stars, but it has never been attained."

"What about nine stars?" Jiang Chen asked. Antares shook its head, "I don't know, maybe there is, I just don't know. This thing sometimes depends on fate; if you don't have that many similar skills, it's hard to compensate later."

Jiang Chen, not understanding, asked, "Can't I learn it? For example, the Soul‑Calming Technique!"

"It cannot be obtained through post‑natal learning! Post‑natal learned skills can only reach planetary‑level spells, and even at the highest fusion they can only reach 99%."

Antares pointed to the spell planet representing the Soul‑Calming Technique; it has been mastered by Jiang Chen and transformed into a spell planet, but its fusion is only 20%.

Jiang Chen once infused soul power, but it seemed to produce no effect.

Jiang Chen suddenly understood; no wonder the concentration skill converted from Primordial Rune has only 99% fusion after becoming a spell planet… there is indeed such a limitation.

Jiang Chen pondered briefly; even if he transforms Summon Ku Lou Wang into a spell star and incorporates it into the multi-star summoning spell system, it can only reach eight-star spells. It seems talent indeed determines the ceiling, and achieving nine-star spells requires the right talent.

He couldn't help feeling a hint of disappointment.

Antares comforted, "In fact, eight-star spells are already extremely powerful, as rare as phoenix feathers. Nine-star spells depend on fate and cannot be forced."

Jiang Chen smiled and replied, "I understand, I am already very satisfied."

"Eh!"

Antares suddenly let out a light exclamation, becoming a soul-type three-star spell system.

Jiang Chen, following its gaze, saw his newly formed 【Soul Burning】, 【Soul Curse】, and 【Soul Toxicity】.

The three blazing stars formed a triangle, rotating around each other.

However, their rotation is somewhat abnormal, not as stable as the previous bone-type and summoning-type rotations.

They speed up and slow down, their trajectories expand and contract, appearing somewhat chaotic.

Jiang Chen observed for a while; no matter how chaotic, they always revolved around a central point.

This central point was emitting the aura of a law.

Antares widened his eyes, "Now… the Time Law… has manifested!"

His voice carried surprise, even a hint of fear.

But more than that was disbelief.

The Time Law is one of the highest‑ranking laws among all laws in the Great World.

It belongs to the first tier, certainly ranking among the top three powerful laws. Void, ethereal, elusive, and incomprehensible are synonymous with first‑tier laws.

Countless exceptionally talented geniuses retreat before such laws, opting for second‑tier laws instead.

Antares finally came to his senses and let out a strange shout, "Impossible, how could the Time Law manifest? Something must be wrong somewhere."

"It must be… something went wrong! What's happening to this world? Is the Great World gone mad!" The last time I fused skills and produced the Time Law, Antares didn't react this strongly.

This time it's merely the law manifesting, yet the reaction is so intense.

As the saying goes, the ignorant are fearless; Jiang Chen's grasp of law classifications isn't that clear, so he wasn't particularly shocked.

Jiang Chen looked at the seemingly mad Antares and asked, "Are you okay?"

Antares shouted loudly, "I've decided!"

"Decided?"

"Decide what?"

Jiang Chen was left stunned by Antares's condition, not understanding what it was saying.

Antares said, "I've decided to reside permanently in your soul world; I will comprehend the Time Law."

"Once I grasp the Time Law, I'll go back and slaughter everyone; let's see who can stop me!"

A massive amount of soul power surged from Antares's core, strengthening Antares's soul clones.

The soul world rumbled, some parts unable to endure.

Antares's soul is too strong; Jiang Chen's soul world isn't powerful enough to contain it.

Antares wasn't without restraint; he kept the Clone's strength under Control at the limit Jiang Chen could accept, and then, without a word, began to perceive.

It seemed even more casual than its own master.

Jiang Chen was both amused and exasperated; the fellow treated this as his own soul world, as if it were his home.

But on reflection, let him be; it doesn't affect him anyway.

"You may continue to perceive, but you must also watch the Human Race's situation," Jiang Chen said.

Antares's voice rang out, "It's not only you who can multitask. At my level, not only can I handle two tasks at once, I can handle ten without problem."

"Your several little girlfriends, I will closely monitor to ensure their safety." "As for the Blood Clan's methods, they are hardly frightening; you can rest assured."

Jiang Chen firmly believed Li Xueru and the others could handle it properly, so he once again immersed himself in the Law's perception.

He still chose to delve deeper into perceiving the Immortality Law, rather than the Time Law.

Jiang Chen knew his realm was still shallow and had a clear understanding of himself.

The Time Law is one of the top‑tier laws, far from easy, and he understood he could not speak of giving up lightly.

Moreover, he already had many insights into the Immortality Law.

In the Human World, the capital of Eagle Nation.

A powerful aura surged straight to the heavens.

Boom— echoed in the sky, and the entire Eagle Nation was suffused with the Law's aura.

Someone broke through to Level 96.

In the Human World, countless red filaments appeared, like tiny blood strands, converging toward the capital of Eagle Nation.

A figure with wings on his back, about sixty‑to‑seventy percent similar to the Blood Clan, appeared in midair, reveling in a true feast of fresh blood—the feast began!
