Chapter 239 - 106: Snowflake Ice Seal, Awakening Star Gold

Even stone couldn’t withstand the snowflakes’ extreme cold!

Crystalline snowflakes drifted down, one by one. To Chen Yu’s eyes, they were beautiful, but to anyone else, they would be a nightmare!

They were practically frost bombs!

And they were coming down in an overwhelming deluge!

World of Ice, now at Awakening Level Three, had undergone a fundamental change!

For crowd control, it was practically unrivaled!

But it didn’t last long before Chen Yu couldn’t take it anymore.

With a single thought, the crystalline snowflakes vanished, and the enveloping, extreme cold instantly dissipated without a trace.

"This consumption rate is insane..." Chen Yu’s face was pale.

In just a few breaths, the Qi in his body had dropped by eighty percent.

The power of Awakening Level Three was astonishing, but its consumption was equally immense.

With his current reserves of Qi, he couldn’t sustain it for long.

His Celestial Destiny Skill kicked into high gear, rapidly restoring ten percent of his Qi, and the ruddy color gradually returned to Chen Yu’s pale face.

"Whew..."

Letting out a long sigh of relief, Chen Yu composed himself.

’The power of Awakening Level Three really is impressive!’

’It’s just that the cost is enormous. I can’t maintain it for long. If I could, it would be the ultimate ace up my sleeve!’

The snowflake attack was just one form; it could also summon a world-destroying Frost Storm!

However, his Qi wasn’t sufficient to support it.

Even so, the snowflake attack was far stronger than his previous Frost Storm attack.

With two of his Skills upgraded, his strength had increased substantially once more.

Having calmed down, Chen Yu summoned his interface to check the details.

Staring at the long strings of zeroes on the interface, Chen Yu felt his eyes glaze over.

’Can these numbers be displayed differently?’ a thought occurred to Chen Yu.

A second later, the interface trembled. Chen Yu looked, and the values on it changed, converting to a simplified text format.

"Hey, it works!"

Chen Yu’s eyes lit up.

"Change successful. Cost: 10,000 Source of Life. Further changes are possible."

A line of faint text floated before Chen Yu’s eyes.

Chen Yu: "..."

’This costs something too?’

Chen Yu’s heart twitched.

’Everything needs Source of Life!’

’Do you have any idea how hard I work to get my hands on Source of Life?!’

’Ten thousand to change it... Hmm, that’s actually not too expensive.’

Chen Yu reconsidered.

’Considering my current power, ten thousand Source of Life really isn’t much.’

’The amount of Source of Life I need now is measured in the hundreds of millions, at least.’

Looking at the new interface, Chen Yu tried something else.

He changed it back to the numerical display.

He kept experimenting, and after a few tries, Chen Yu managed to create a combined mode with both numbers and text!

Name: Chen Yu

Talent: Infinite Physique (Tier Eight 0/2,000,000,000) [Unique Talent]

Skills: World of Ice (Awakened Legend Lvl 3, 0/1,000,000,000)Biological Force Field (Golden Legend Ultimate 1020/400,000,000)Divine Will (Golden Legend Ultimate 876/600,000,000)Divine Speed Power (Legend Ultimate MAX)Destructive Celestial Light (Epic Ultimate 290/500,000,000)Senluo’s Fury (Legend Ultimate 1735/300,000,000)Lord of the Undead (Epic Ultimate 49/500,000,000)

Source of Life: 56,794,789

"This is much easier on the eyes."

Looking at the new interface, Chen Yu felt a sense of satisfaction.

Everything was clear at a glance.

"A billion..."

"It increased tenfold!"

Seeing the Source of Life requirement for his World of Ice Skill, Chen Yu wasn’t particularly surprised.

’The further you progress, the greater the power!’

’It’s only natural that it would require more Source of Life!’

’I just don’t know how many times it can be awakened...’

Chen Yu wondered.

Awakening upgrades had their limits; they weren’t infinite. Every ability had its breaking point.

The stronger the ability, the higher its limit!

In simple terms, it was the Skill’s potential!

Compared to its initial state, the World of Ice ability had undergone an earth-shattering transformation.

Its power was now leagues apart from what it once was.

Chen Yu didn’t know yet if it could be upgraded further after reaching its limit.

For now, it was his only awakened Skill. His other Skills hadn’t even reached their basic limits.

Let alone an awakening limit.

"Ahem..."

Just as Chen Yu was lost in thought, the sound of coughing broke the silence.

Chen Yu snapped back to reality and looked over. On the ground, Liu Mei was slowly opening her eyes.

Their eyes met. Liu Mei stared blankly at Chen Yu before her.

"Chen Yu, what happened to me?" Liu Mei asked, looking at Chen Yu in confusion as she felt a wave of pain and weakness in her body.

"You don’t remember?" Chen Yu asked, looking at her.

Liu Mei looked blank. "I think I had a dream."

Chen Yu: "...?"

"A dream? What kind of dream?" Chen Yu asked her.

Liu Mei: "I dreamed I was in a world full of slaughter. People were dying constantly, everyone was in danger, there was no order... A blood moon hung in the sky. It seemed the world was nothing but slaughter, gore, and chaos!"

?

Chen Yu stared blankly at Liu Mei.

’A world of slaughter... no order, gore, chaos, violence...’

’Isn’t this exactly what was written on the papers from the castle?’

’Humans consume Soul Pearls, get controlled by them, and their darkest desires are unleashed.’

’The world order collapses!’

’Everyone scrambles for Soul Pearls, resorting to any means necessary!’

’Liu Mei’s dream matches the records from the castle papers exactly. Is this... a coincidence?’

’Or did consuming the Soul Pearl allow her to "see" that vision of the world?’

"I also dreamed you beat me up," Liu Mei added.

Chen Yu: "..."

"Hiss—why am I so sore? You didn’t actually beat me up, did you?"

Liu Mei tried to stand, but a wave of pain shot through her entire body. She looked at Chen Yu with her bright eyes.

"..."

"...Ahem. You don’t remember what happened in the castle?" Chen Yu coughed, changing the subject as he looked at Liu Mei.

"The castle..."

Liu Mei frowned. She thought for a moment before saying, "I remember parts of it. I think we were looking for Undead Skeletons to absorb their flames and enhance our Spiritual Power."
