Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 1508: Chapter 1213: Development (2)

”This time, there should be an Eighth Grade skill, right...”

Su Yuan squinted slightly, staring intently at the system that kept flickering.

The battle at Qunyu Mountain back then, Chen’s two Eighth Grade Divine Powers left a deep impression on Su Yuan.

And apart from Sword Control Thunder Strike being boosted to Eighth Grade under the Taixu Divine Seal, Su Yuan did not have any real Eighth Grade skill...

Anyway, with 2.3 billion Star Dust, Su Yuan only hoped to derive a few more high-grade skills...

Not long after, the flickering system suddenly surged with Spirit Light, already showing results.

”Based on the host’s current conditions, the following skills have been derived:”

”Skill 1 (Ninth Grade): Based on ’Sword Above Nine Heavens’ and ’Black Lotus Blossoms’, fundamentally rooted in ’Void Sword Qi’, integrated with Time Law to create a burst-type sword move, consumes 1 billion Star Dust”

”Skill 2 (Eighth Grade): Utilizing Xuyu Time Leak and Sunrise Sunset One Year Array, enhanced by Time Law to significantly boost the upper limit of Oath of Returning Ruins, condition: requires perception within Sunrise Sunset One Year Array, consumes 460 million Star Dust.”

”Skill 3 (Eighth Grade): Modeled after ’Instant Unlimited’, assisted by Time Law, injecting an infinite flow of information while simultaneously prolonging time perception to annihilate spirits, consumes 320 million Star Dust”

”Skill 4 (Eighth Grade): Using ’Qingming Realm’ as the backbone, further enhances the power of ’Hundred Flowers Silver Tree’, consumes 220 million”

”Skill 5 (Seventh Grade): Amplifying Time Reversal with Time Law, concentrated force for directional retrospection of a state on the body, including but not limited to Star Power, spiritual power, injuries, curses, abnormal states, etc., consumes 150 million Star Dust”

”Skill 6 (Seventh Grade): Based on Three Flowers Divine Technique, combined with Qingming Realm’s Star Vein Will, developed into defense and auxiliary-type spiritual skills, consumes 120 million Star Dust”

”...”

”Skill 10 (Seventh Grade): Based on Flame Burst Jade, further enhancing its power, consumes 100 million”

”Skill 11 (Seventh Grade): Based on Wind Killing Jade, further enhancing its power, consumes 100 million”

”Skill 12 (Seventh Grade): Based on Thunder Shock Jade, further enhancing its power, consumes 100 million”

The system lists out a total of twelve skills available for development.

Su Yuan immediately focused on Skill 1 listed at the top...

”Ninth Grade skill?!” Su Yuan’s eyes gleamed with delight.

He harbored a trace of hope, but had not expected the system to have truly derived a Ninth Grade skill.

”It’s not just because of the major advancement in Space Law, but more importantly... alignment with Bing Tong’s Time Law.”

”Although Bing Tong’s Time Law is only at the Fifth Stage, the Time Skill is simply too mysterious, and merely adding a hint can produce unimaginable transmutations, especially since space and time are inherently highly compatible...”

Su Yuan’s mind quickly considered his options, but no matter what, developing a Ninth Grade skill is an enormous advantage.

Especially a Ninth Grade sword move?

With the boost from Void Divine Intent, it might even approach the realm of myth!

”System, develop Skill 1!”

Even if it means spending nearly half of his Star Dust in one go, Su Yuan did not hesitate; he must prioritize developing this Ninth Grade skill.

With Su Yuan’s command, the system interface blurred slightly, and an idle development queue was populated with a new task.

”Skill 1 (Ninth Grade), in development: (0/100%), estimated time 320 days”

”320 days? True to its Ninth Grade status, not only does it consume several times more Star Dust than Seventh Grade skills, but the development time also extends tenfold.”

Su Yuan secretly shook his head; thankfully, he has the Sunrise Sunset One Year Array, or nearly a year could be too long given the current situation...

Now, with calculations, 320 days within the Sunrise Sunset One Year Array amount to just one week.

If other King-level experts were aware of Su Yuan’s thoughts, they would be infuriated.

Securing a Ninth Grade Divine Power within a year is a pipe dream; even a few hundred years would be considered fortunate!

After all, Ninth Grade Divine Power is not something that can be realized simply by spending time...

”There are still 240 million Star Dust remaining, with several skills still left...”

Su Yuan continued to look at the other skills, suddenly sensing a shopping mood.

Initially thinking 2.3 billion Star Dust was more than enough, but one Ninth Grade sword move consumed nearly half, now he has to choose carefully.

”Quality over quantity, the three Eighth Grade skills are definitely the first choice.”

Skill 2, Oath of Returning Ruins was initially anticipated to be an enhanced skill, and strengthening the enhanced Oath of Returning Ruins will serve as the basic reliance for future encounters against Ninth Stage powerful foes.

Skill 3, is an improvement derived from the ’Instant Unlimited’ skill...

Since obtaining this technique, it has helped him dispatch numerous formidable enemies in countless battles.

According to the system, it not only enhances Instant Unlimited’s effect but also seems to introduce spiritual damage?

Even without knowing the extent of spiritual damage, its powerful control ability alone makes it worth prioritizing.

As for Skill 4, the Hundred Flowers Silver Tree is his only defense skill; further enhancement can only be beneficial!

Su Yuan said: ”System, develop Skill 2, Skill 3, Skill 4!”

The Star Dust System flashed briefly as Skill 2 and Skill 3 simultaneously entered the task queue.

”Skill 2 (Eighth Grade), waiting, estimated time 62 days”

”Skill 3 (Eighth Grade), waiting, estimated time 39 days”

”Skill 4 (Eighth Grade), waiting, estimated time 32 days”

”Still 300 million remaining, can choose up to two Seventh Grade skills...”

Su Yuan scanned through the skills below, after a slight pondering, decided to develop and enhance ”Time Reversal” and ”Three Flowers Divine Technique” these two functional skills.

In terms of attack skills, he already possesses Three-Colored Sky Divine Jade, Quantum Collapse, Sword Control Thunder Strike, Taixu Divine Sword, and many other methods, and has reinforced a Ninth Grade sword move, which is more than sufficient.

From the three thousand laws, King-level powerhouses’ various law divine powers continuously emerge and are hard to defend against; with this newly derived skill based on ”Time Reversal”, he will have an additional backup.

As for Three Flowers Divine Technique, it is solely because of his deficiency in spiritual aspects.

Without deeply researching the Spiritual Path, his goal is not necessarily to use Spirit Secret Technique to defeat enemies, but he cannot allow opponents to easily target him with spiritual attacks!

Earlier when confronting Mo Yun, if not for Ma Liang’s assistance with the Heavenly God Dao Avatar, the spirit-targeting Winter Rain attack could indeed pose a significant challenge.

Cultivation is not like a game; in games, team cooperation allows individuals to focus intensely on peculiar development in a certain direction.

Even if one dies, it’s okay, as revival is possible.

But in real combat, versatility is necessary; preserving one’s own life is more important than defeating enemies!

Once a weakness is caught, death is real.

Especially in confrontations between powerhouses!

Now, having these advanced skills to supplement spiritual defense is just perfect.

”Continue developing Skill 5, Skill 6.”

The system panel flashed, the final two skills also entered the waiting queue.

”Skill 5 (Seventh Grade), waiting, estimated time 20 days”

”Skill 6 (Seventh Grade), waiting, estimated time 12 days”

As of this moment, Su Yuan has developed a total of six skills, with only 30 million Star Dust left of the original 2.3 billion.

”These Star Dusts really deplete quickly...”

Su Yuan chuckled with a hint of bitterness; if all Ninth Grade skills are around 100 million Star Dust, he will need abundant Star Dust for future endeavors.

Regarding development time, none of the skills collectively surpass the time consumption of the Ninth Grade Skill 1.

Fortunately, time is no longer a critical factor, thanks to the Sunrise Sunset One Year Array.

Su Yuan gazed at the six advanced skills on the panel and nodded in satisfaction at the slowly progressing development of Skill 1.

”With this, let’s await the results!”
