Chapter 515 - 76: Visitor from Chaos!
Time flies.
In no time, a month has passed, and Shawn has completed his ascension on the Garden Planet, directly leaping to become a Demigod of the Path of Knowledge and the Mind Path. His promotion was a logical progression since he had already gathered all the necessary elements at Candlefort; he only needed the Extraordinary Relics of the Mind Path, which he acquired after devouring the Main Brain. The ascension to Demigod does not have the complexities of the True God’s Divine Investiture ceremony; it is the freest form of ascension in pseudo-divine power, achievable without followers or a church as long as the conditions are met.
Many people remain permanently at the Demigod realm, as they are not confined within a Divine Kingdom.
——Level 5 Arcanist/Level 5 Mind Scholar/Level 10 Arcane Spirit Master/Level 10 Great Aoling Master [Level 1 Knowledge Demigod].
Shawn’s current total level is 31, with a Professional Level of 30, and a Divine Format Level of 1.
After consolidating his Divine Format Level, the mysterious knowledge in Shawn’s brain further evolved. The vast data stream can now be visualized at his will, and the corresponding information is directly transmitted into Shawn’s brain.
——Garden Planet [Clustered Earth-like Planet].
——Satellites: 12.
——Population: Approximately 1.86 million.
——Cities: 27 Heart Stealer cities, 1 Underground City, 6 Star Ports.
——Races: 36% Lost Star People, 27% Brain Giants, 21% Humans, 12% Heart Stealers, several humanoid species.
——Resource Output: Timber, Special Minerals (Wood Crystal), Herbs, Plutonium (Satellite of the Son of the Sun), etc.
——Wonders: Crystal Node [Unfinished] (Su’en’s Heart Stealer spiritual wonder).
——Other Legendary Locations: Earth Vein Eruption (Spiritual Ability Legend Point), Elemental Torrent (Arcane Legend Point), Spiritual Gate (Ancient Legend Location).
Shawn spent this time setting up the Crystal Node.
Though it’s an unfinished spiritual wonder, the power it possesses is already incredibly strong.
——"Crystal Node [Spiritual Wonder] (Unfinished): Su’en’s Heart Stealer extracts the earth vein energy of the planet, crystallizing a part of the earth’s laws, forming a vast crystal node that can affect the planet’s spiritual ability field and grant powerful spiritual energy to other beings."
——"Ability 1 [Spiritual Energy Pool Expansion]: Practicing near the Crystal Node permanently increases your spiritual energy pool limit, equivalent to the super magical power of Spiritual Talent Levels 1-10, and cannot stack with specialization effects of Spiritual Talent."
——"Ability 2 [Legendary Spiritual Ascension]: Practicing in the core area of the Crystal Node permanently greatly increases your spiritual energy pool limit, equivalent to the super magical power of Legendary Psychic Mastery Levels 1-10, and cannot stack with the legendary specialization effects of Spiritual Mastery."
——"Ability 3 [Spiritual Infusion]: Touching the crystal cluster of the Crystal Node grants a spiritual infusion effect lasting 1 year, increasing your spiritual energy pool by about 20% depending on the spiritual power absorbed. This enhancement effect disappears after one year."
A wonder is a wonder.
It’s the first time Shawn encounters a legendary location that provides a positive buff lasting an entire year.
However, the Crystal Node wonder itself has a large spiritual energy pool, originally sufficient to bestow a year-long positive buff to 100 people. But after Shawn’s visit, it may only suffice for 80 people, as he absorbed too much spiritual energy.
This wonder is akin to a Cultivation Holy Land, where you can master passive specialization pertaining to Spiritual Talent, further expanding the spiritual energy pool.
——Earth Vein Eruption (Spiritual Ability Legend Point): Spiritualists can attempt to absorb the power here. Upon passing spiritual recognition, the absorbed power increases their Casting Level by 1. (Duration 1 year.)
——Elemental Torrent (Arcane Legend Point): Arcane Mages can try to absorb the elemental torrent emerging from the earth vein. Upon passing spell recognition, the caster’s Shaping Spell Level increases by 2. (Duration 1 year.)
Shawn has yet to find a legendary location that permanently enhances attributes, specialization, or spell-like abilities; such locations are rare and highly sought after.
One might say the Garden Planet is still a bit small.
As for the Great Druids of the Path of Nature, they have ventured into the depths of the Garden Planet, entering the subterranean jungle world intertwined with countless roots. It is currently unknown what they have discovered. The Forest Sage is attempting to resurrect the Child of the World Tree here, but their progress remains unclear.
Crystal Node.
Shawn sits cross-legged atop a crystal prism cluster several meters in diameter, his form linked with the earth vein, continuously absorbing the energy emitted by the Crystal Node. The abilities contained within these crystals allow him to master additional ’Spiritual Talent’ specialization.
"Ability mastery."
"You have mastered the legendary specialization [Mastering Manifestation]!..."
After the Crystal Node’s energy was temporarily depleted, Shawn slowly opened his eyes, his slender form lightly touching the ground. In a flash, he appeared in the Brain Pool Temple on the other side of the Garden Planet.
At this moment, the voice of Sealed Object No. 1 resonated: "The transplantation technology of the exotic species has been fully analyzed."
"Part of it can be included in the Star Warrior modification plan."
Shawn said coolly, "Transmit it to me."
In the next second.
A torrent of monumental data flooded into his mind, quickly converted by the mysterious knowledge within Shawn’s brain.
——"Chitin Armor: This implant is a large chitinous armor embedded beneath a creature’s skin. These armors are sturdy yet agile, granting the creature a +1 to +5 innate defense bonus. These innate defense bonuses do not stack with those derived from the creature’s race but do stack with enhancements granted by Magic such as barkskin or an innate defense talisman."
