My Talent Skill Mutated

The Star Realm, a special abyssal world in the cosmos.

The cosmic radiation here is extremely powerful, making it nearly impossible for ordinary people to survive.

However, it is also an excellent place.

Besides the cosmic radiation, the Star Realm possesses an extremely special kind of Spiritual Qi.

Absorbing this special Spiritual Qi allows one to rapidly increase their strength.

Absorbing it with the Celestial Destiny Skill maximizes its effects, allowing for faster improvement. It can refine one’s Qi and even has the effect of strengthening Superpowers.

Within the Star Realm, there is a special place known as a Star Spring.

Soaking in a Star Spring can significantly boost one’s cultivation level. Furthermore, it can enhance talent, strengthen one’s Superpower, and more.

They are true treasure troves.

However, these Star Springs don’t have specific locations. To be precise, they aren’t fixed to any one spot in the Star Realm; instead, they are constantly in motion.

One can only soak in them if they happen to stumble upon one. If not, then there’s no hope of doing so.

However, none of this was the main point for Chen Yu.

For him, cultivation was merely supplementary.

Physical Evolution was the key to his rapid advancement, but that required more Source of Life.

The Star Realm is home to terrifying alien beasts, the most common of which is a species called the Star Beast.

These alien beasts are incredibly powerful and can unleash devastating Starlight Beams.

The Starlight Beams unleashed by the top-tier Star Beasts can even match the power of a cosmic gamma-ray burst.

Star Beasts are the greatest danger in the Star Realm.

Furthermore, Star Beasts usually travel in packs, posing an extremely high risk for the average Martial Artist.

They can fire their Starlight Beams in unison. Without sufficient strength, an encounter with them carries a very high probability of death.

Surviving this kind of danger comes down to personal strength and luck.

...

After reading the information about the Star Realm, Chen Yu closed the virtual screen.

He found himself quite drawn to this cosmic abyss.

His targets were the Star Beasts.

’If my luck is good, my physical Evolution won’t be a problem.’

’Then, when I go to the Stellar Battlefield, I’ll have an even greater chance.’

’After all, I haven’t forgotten the promise the True God made me.’

’Star Gold!’

’It’s the crucial material that will allow Sophie to evolve again.’

’With my current means, aside from this one opportunity on the Stellar Battlefield, there’s likely no other way to obtain it.’

’And another thing—this time, I’ll also be able to meet the elites from the academies of other worlds.’

’The eight worlds beyond the Ancestor Star are all far more developed than it is.’

’The development of the Azure Sky World, in particular, is number one!’

’Their talented elites are probably nigh-invincible, second only to a True God.’

’Going to the Star Realm will be a chance to meet them ahead of time.’

——

Night fell. In a top-tier special care ward in Jingzhou Base City’s Central Hospital, Chen Yu stood at the window, gazing out at the brilliant city lights in the distance.

"BZZT—!"

With a flash of electricity, his figure vanished without a trace.

In the span of a single breath, Chen Yu had already left the base city.

At night, the base city was completely locked down.

For him, however, this posed no problem.

Chen Yu landed atop a desolate mountain in the wilderness outside the base city.

He activated his Life Force Field, sensing for Life Fluctuations.

Soon, Chen Yu sensed a level-one alien beast on the mountain.

He swiftly captured it, and now Chen Yu stood before a Hyena Beast the size of a tiger.

He recalled that when he first awoke in this world, the first alien beast he ever faced was a Hyena Beast.

Now, after a year of monumental changes, things were completely different!

The Hyena Beast was suppressed by his Qi, but it continued to struggle. Chen Yu paid it no mind, reaching out a hand as a dark light materialized in his palm.

"HUMMM—!"

His palm landed on the Hyena Beast’s head, and the dark light flared. In the next instant, a horrifying scene unfolded.

Intense fear filled the Hyena Beast’s eyes, and its struggles grew more violent.

Its Life Force seemed to be devoured by the dark light, plummeting rapidly. Its body, as if drained of all its essence, began to shrivel at a rate visible to the naked eye.

In just the span of a few breaths, Chen Yu had completely stripped the Hyena Beast of its Life Force.

A fingernail-sized ball of light floated in Chen Yu’s hand.

This was the Essence of Life!

The Essence of Life, condensed from stripped Life Force!

It contained all the Hyena Beast’s Spirit, Essence, and Qi.

"Is that all?"

Chen Yu stared, stunned, at the Essence of Life in his palm.

It was different from what he’d imagined; this tiny amount of Essence of Life was pitifully small.

Chen Yu glanced at the Hyena Beast on the ground. Having been stripped of its Life Force, it was as dead as could be.

Staring at the Essence of Life in his palm, he noted that while it was small, he could sense the Life Qi it contained was still quite potent.

Then, with a mere thought, Chen Yu had the Essence of Life in his palm merge into his body.

"HUMMM—!"

A peculiar vibration emanated from within as an unprecedented feeling of well-being washed over his body.

The sensation was just like what he felt during physical Evolution.

It felt incredibly real.

But the pleasant sensation vanished in an instant.

Everything returned to normal.

Chen Yu opened his eyes and assessed the changes in his body.

His depleted Spirit, Essence, and Qi seemed to have been replenished by a tiny sliver.

But this bit of Life Force was simply too little; the change was minuscule.

The Life Force from a single level-one alien beast was like pouring a ton of water into a river; if his Spiritual Power hadn’t been so strong, he wouldn’t have even been able to feel it.
