Chapter 406: Steam Star Phase Master

Mimic World!

Inside the shadow cottage of the Shadow High Tower.

What? The odds weren't 1 to 1.2 before? How did they become 1:0.8?

Looking at the information inside the light-screen page opened by the Quasi-Legendary Warrior Lei Se, Ta Ke raised an eyebrow.

This is already not bad.

The Quasi-Legendary Lei Se said softly.

The assassination attempt with that divine power scroll a few days ago, which you dodged, has been spreading throughout the Divine Nation, causing quite a stir among Chao Shen Da Shi and legendary powerhouses.

Even the deities are paying attention to this, wanting to thoroughly investigate the enemy intelligence network behind it.

Currently, your odds have only dropped to 0.8; that's already enough.

Moreover...

The Shadow Warrior Lei Se leaned forward slightly and asked.

Still betting or not?

Bet, why not bet!

Ta Ke shrugged his shoulders.

All together 1.3 million Divine Nation Merit, I'm betting it all.

1.3 million Divine Nation Merit?

The Quasi-Legendary Shadow Warrior Lei Se exclaimed in surprise.

Last time, you barely scraped together 30,000 Divine Nation Merit; this time, how do you have so much Divine Nation Merit?

Borrowed from Lu Ge Er.

Ta Ke raised an eyebrow and said.

After Ta Ke returned from lodging at the Divine Nation Reincarnation Pool's baptism.

Ta Ke then planned to mortgage the 12 Intermediate Master Origin Spheres in his hand to Lu Ge Er.

In order to obtain around 150,000 Divine Nation Merit to bet on his own victory.

After all, this batch of resources is one of the few usable resources Ta Ke has at hand.

Naturally, Ta Ke intends to use money to make money to increase his resources.

As a result, unexpectedly, Lu Ge Er placed great trust in Ta Ke.

Besides the collateral of 150,000 Divine Nation Merit, he also lent Ta Ke another 1,150,000, adding up to 1,300,000.

After Ta Ke bet all 1,300,000 Divine Nation Merit.

Following the flow of the Mimic World, a black card quickly condensed.

It recorded all the information of Ta Ke's this-time bet on 【Ta Ke·La Mo Er】 and 【Ao Ma Er】.

After examining it for a moment.

Ta Ke then exited the Mimic Network World.

This 1,300,000 Divine Nation Merit.

Speaking of it, it's not too much.

Speaking of it, it's certainly not little.

But no matter how you say it.

Regarding the battle four months later with the Star-Shatterer Ao Ma Er.

Ta Ke naturally needs all-around preparation.

The battle between Ta Ke and Ao Ma Er.

Even the demigod A Lu Mo Fu knew about this.

Given the present, the Divine Nation of A Lu Mo Fu places great importance on the Steam Master sequence.

It will inevitably be heavily promoted, allowing more supernatural residents to support the Steam Master system.

Thus better promoting the Steam Master system.

La Mo Er Inheritance High Tower!

Third Cultivation Chamber!

Sizzle……

The doorframe of the Steam Magical Cottage quickly sprang open.

Ta Ke walked out, shaking his head as he went.

As expected, it's still somewhat inadequate.

After advancing to level 139.

After returning and cultivating in seclusion for a few days, Ta Ke re-entered the depths of the magical space of the Steam Magical Cottage, attempting to absorb the brilliant azure-glass light of the 【Stellar Ivory】.

And the result naturally ended in failure.

But Ta Ke was not completely without gain.

From that fluid-like light, Ta Ke could feel the mighty power of using light to weave the stars.

This vaguely shares some commonality with Ta Ke's 【Chaos·Cosmic Star Phase】.

That is to say, the means and abilities within the 【Stellar Ivory】 are very suitable for Ta Ke.

Around level 150, one can draw the 【Star Void Divine Art】 from here.

Even if it's a 10-star level, the power of the 【Star Void Divine Art】 is astonishingly great.

Moreover, the Star Void Divine Art, even legendary powerhouses may not be able to cultivate to a sufficiently high realm.

"And I…"

"As long as the experience is sufficient, it can be maxed out directly."

Ta Ke, gradually calming his mind, focused his attention on the battle with Ao Ma Er three months later.

Three months.

A major breakthrough in strength, naturally, is unlikely.

So!

Ao Ma Er must have some extremely powerful hidden tactics.

Ta Ke is also aware of this.

Ta Ke, on his side, can quickly ascend, rising above level 140 to become a mid‑rank Chao Shen Da Shi.

Possible!

But it's unnecessary.

Previously, Ta Ke had also asked the teacher.

Top‑grade Chaos Relics are not that easy to obtain.

Such relics are already extremely scarce within the Divine Realm; even if Ta Ke wanted to buy them, he couldn't afford them.

And ordinary Chaos Relics don't interest Ta Ke much.

Using these ordinary Chaos Relics for breakthroughs would only damage his foundation, causing trouble for himself.

Therefore, he must obtain top‑grade Chaos Relics for breakthroughs.

He also has to explore the ancient Chaos Continent himself.

At present, Ta Ke still holds 180 million source‑energy experience points.

During these three‑plus months, he can add another 15 million experience.

Nearly 200 million source‑energy experience is enough for Ta Ke to improve considerably in all aspects.

"Add points! Comprehend cultivation, hone strength."

"This is the key to my upcoming cultivation."

In Ta Ke's cultivation.

Ta Ke is fully immersed in rune secrets, cosmic astral bodies, ecological insights, and sparring with stronger opponents.

Months passed in a flash, unnoticed!

……

"Wuwu…"

Within the huge, wide tunnel, the roar of steam echoed.

Ta Ke's towering frame slowly traversed the tunnel.

As he moved forward, Ta Ke was lost in thought.

The meticulous honing over these months.

Ta Ke certainly didn't lack fierce battles with Titan Knight Ruger.

Ta Ke, with Titan Knight Ruger, leapt straight into the void's depths.

A skirmish lasted about half a day.

Besides the fighting, in sharpening combat experience.

Titan Knight Ruger, unafraid of legendary strongmen's traits, was also brought out by Ta Ke.

That is… slaying the Chao Shen Da Shi outside!

Ruger used his Titan shield to protect Ta Ke.

Ta Ke, together with Ruger, specifically targeted those Chao Shen Da Shi outside.

As long as no legendary strongman arrives.

The two continuously wreaked havoc.

But a legendary strongman arrived.

Ta Ke would immediately flee with Ruger.

These months were not short either.

Ta Ke actually obtained the corpses of eight mid‑rank Chao Shen Da Shi and fifteen lower‑rank Chao Shen Da Shi.

All those corpses were transformed by Ta Ke into Steam Curtain Masters.

The lower‑rank Steam Curtain Masters Ta Ke kept for personal use.

The mid‑rank Steam Curtain Masters Ta Ke converted into his latest powerful research, the Steam Astral Master.

As Ta Ke reached the tunnel's end.

The world before his eyes opened up brightly.

Within a massive stone‑columned space.

A clearly outlined, heavily condensed light, the colossal (over a kilometer in diameter) Saint Land·Steam Blazing Sun hung overhead, occupying nearly one‑third of the space, almost within reach.

Its scorching sun power nearly boiled the entire area.

Below, within this space.

Eight mid‑rank Steam Curtain Masters were fully absorbing the frenzied sun‑star power, precipitating astral bodies within themselves.

The three strongest.

Had already reached the pinnacle of astral bodies: 18‑star astral bodies.

Which is one‑third of Ta Ke's current level.

Ta Ke, using his formidable talent, forged these astonishingly wondrous creations.

Not only the outside world was astonished.

And Ta Ke himself was also extremely shocked.

Utilizing the three great talents—Precision·High‑Dimensional·Correction, Chaos·Cosmic Constellation, and Steam·Origin·World Static.

He transformed the Steam Curtain Shadow Master, correcting it into the present‑day Steam Constellation Master.

This is not only Ta Ke's progress in ecological research.

It is also a tremendous advancement for Ta Ke's strength.

Because now Ta Ke possesses a large number of front‑line heavy meat shields that can fight, endure, are fast, and attack fiercely!

Just as Ta Ke was scrutinizing these brand‑new versions of the peculiar creations of Steam and Stars.

The legendary heroic spirit mentor Mo Erman followed the passage and arrived together at this massive stellar nexus area.

He swept over those gigantic Steam Constellation Masters that made even his own heart race.

Mo Erman's gaze fell upon Ta Ke.

"Ta Ke, it's time to prepare!"

"Understood, teacher!"

Ta Ke's body flickered slightly.

A total of eight Steam Constellation Masters, each over twenty meters tall and radiating scorching stellar light, were drawn into Ta Ke's body as if a giant whale were sucking in water, all fully absorbed within his own form.

Seeing this, the legendary heroic spirit mentor Mo Erman also had a slight twitch at the corner of his eye.

This Chao Shen Da Shi disciple—he is becoming more and more incomprehensible.

As he walked outward, Ta Ke whispered, "Perfect, that Ao Ma Er can be used to test my latest method."
