Chapter 771: Masochistic

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Every time Chen Fei stepped into this void, he felt a profound sense of awe. It was like an ordinary person gazing up at the sky.

With the shadow of the three Divine Palaces trailing behind him, Chen Fei flew forward.

The weight brought by the three Divine Palaces had increased significantly compared to last time. Fortunately, Chen Fei’s divine soul had grown a lot since then, and more importantly, all three talents had been cultivated to perfection.

The improvements brought by these enhancements offset the burden of the three Divine Palaces, making it a bit easier for Chen Fei compared to last time.

In other regions of the Mountain Sea Realm, entering the void to search for talents and being able to fly out the same distance each time was already considered successful.

Most of the time, those in the Mountain Sea Realm relied on continuous cultivation of techniques to automatically narrow the distance to talents, enabling them to choose better ones.

However, for those whose talents were deeply hidden and whose techniques had not been cultivated enough, it was impossible to narrow the distance. Naturally, they might never have the opportunity to touch them in their lifetime.

Skipping over those simple talents, Chen Fei glanced briefly at them. The types and quantities of talents were not much different from last time, and there hadn’t been any significant change in their positions either.

Back when he first came, he didn’t choose any of these talents, and now it was even less likely for him to do so.

However, these simple talents were not without value. In certain specific situations, these talents were crucial.

Chen Fei had acquired many secret manuals of techniques, some of which mentioned that in the Sacred Land, the talents were not independent entities from the techniques. Sometimes, several talents linked together could form a new talent state.

In simpler terms, not only did talents complement techniques, but talents could also combine with each other to form a stacked state, granting practitioners even greater abilities.

This was the experience accumulated by the Sacred Land over the years, and it was also the profound legacy established under the guidance of experts in the Sun Moon Realm.

Currently, Chen Fei did not have such a legacy, so he couldn’t combine talents into composite states. He could only choose whichever talent was more powerful.

However, in the future, when Chen Fei’s primary cultivation techniques improved, it might be possible for him to combine various talents within his body according to his own situation.

After all, at the current pace, it was possible for Chen Fei to gather ten talents when he reached the pinnacle of the Mountain Sea Realm.

If others could form a combination state with four talents, there was no reason why Chen Fei, with ten talents, couldn’t form one.

With a forward dash, Chen Fei leaped over a blank area and then spotted several glowing spheres ahead.

The talents of “Prison Suppression,” “Sky Piercer,” and “Imprisonment,” which Chen Fei had seen during the last encounter, were still present here.

Because Chen Fei’s comprehension of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant technique had deepened, the distances of these three talents had also been significantly shortened.

Interestingly, the talent “Prison Suppression” seemed somewhat blurred at the moment, perhaps because Chen Fei’s talent in “Domain Suppression” had already broken its limit. This Prison Suppression in front of him appeared faint, as if it were about to vanish into the void.

When the talent “Domain Suppression” finally broke its limit one day, the current talent of “Prison Suppression” in front of him would probably disappear completely.

Any one of these three talents, if chosen at random, would significantly boost Chen Fei’s combat power. Selecting any of them would undoubtedly be a correct choice.

However, since Chen Fei didn’t choose any of them last time, he naturally wouldn’t choose them this time either.

At this point, Chen Fei had only consumed less than twenty percent of his divine soul, much less than last time, making it much easier.

Chen Fei continued forward, and several glowing clusters came into view.

Talents such as “Bronze Skin, Iron Bones,” “Indomitable,” “Illusionary Form,” and “Blood Fury,” familiar talents he had already encountered once before.

Chen Fei’s attention was mainly focused on “Bronze Skin, Iron Bones.” Last time, it was this talent along with the Sword Mastery that made Chen Fei hesitate for a long time, ultimately leading him to choose the Sword Mastery.

As it turned out, the Sword Mastery did indeed provide Chen Fei with greater benefits.

Not only in terms of combat power but also in the growth of his techniques.

Last time, Chen Fei had made up his mind that if he were to return to the void, he would choose “Bronze Skin, Iron Bones.” But now that he actually saw it, Chen Fei hesitated again.

His divine soul had now consumed thirty percent, and this wasn’t the endpoint of Chen Fei’s journey into the void; he could still continue forward.

Glancing at “Bronze Skin, Iron Bones,” Chen Fei continued to soar.

Yet another blank area lay ahead. Each of these blank areas represented a deeper exploration of the inner cosmos, where naturally, talents that could be unearthed were also deeper.

They weren’t necessarily better, but they were definitely a type of talent that was difficult to inspire within this body.

When his divine soul had consumed thirty-five percent, a new cluster of light flashed ahead, and Chen Fei reached out to touch one of them.

[Roar of Fury: Charge, Critical Strike]

Briefly charging up enables Chen Fei to unleash attacks much stronger than in normal states, which is a critical strike. The magnitude of the attack increase depends on how long the charge is held.

After a critical strike, there wouldn’t be any lingering effects, meaning there was no aftermath explosion.

The attack power of a critical strike had its limits. Through continuous familiarization and mastery of this talent, the charging time could be shortened.

However, no matter how high the proficiency or how short the charging time, there would still be a posture of charging, which couldn’t be changed.

This talent didn’t necessarily have to be used only for attacks. It could also be utilized to some extent in body techniques. However, after running for a while, the speed would naturally decrease, so it was crucial to pick the right moment.

Upon seeing this talent, Chen Fei’s first thought was of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant.

The difference was that the Suppressing Dragon Elephant relied on external force, requiring a strong pressure tolerance limit within oneself to better utilize its abilities.

On the other hand, this talent relied purely on one’s own strength to deliver powerful attacks.

During prolonged combat, it might not have been as useful unless there was cooperation from teammates or unless one had a talent for Imprisonment, which could momentarily immobilize the opponent.

But if one struck first and used this talent in a surprise attack, the effect would have been excellent.

If Chen Fei had used the Suppressing Dragon Elephant for leverage first, followed by a brief charge, the feeling would have been incredibly satisfying.

However, choosing this talent wouldn’t be as effective for Chen Fei as selecting “Bronze Skin, Iron Bones.” The latter directly enhances the foundation, perhaps not as forcefully as “Roar of Fury,” but “Bronze Skin, Iron Bones” doesn’t require charging.

It’s like making every attack of Chen Fei stronger, rather than relying on “Roar of Fury,” which strengthens only once and then weakens, requiring another charge.

Chen Fei withdrew and flew forward for a distance before reaching into another cluster of light.

[Hidden Fury: Leverage, Strike]

Seeing the description of the talent, Chen Fei was surprised. He had just thought that “Roar of Fury” was somewhat similar to the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, but now there was a talent almost identical to it.

With the Suppressing Dragon Elephant already in his possession, Chen Fei naturally wouldn’t choose this one. He skipped over the cluster of light and continued forward.

[Resilience: Upon being attacked, defense is enhanced]

If it weren’t for the Suppressing Dragon Elephant’s talents encountered earlier, Chen Fei would have thought that the three clusters of light he had just seen were all derived talents of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant.

Especially this “Resilience,” while not a perfect match for the Suppressing Dragon Elephant’s characteristics, it would definitely enhance the Suppressing Dragon Elephant’s power once again.

Previously, with the talent “Domain Suppression” combined with the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, Chen Fei was already to some extent fearless in group battles. It could even be said that the more chaotic the situation, the stronger the power Chen Fei might unleash.

However, the defense of a single individual ultimately had its limits, even with the talent “Domain Suppression.”

But now, with this talent “Resilience,” things became interesting. It didn’t conflict with the talent “Domain Suppression.”

In other words, while the talent “Domain Suppression” could raise the defense limit by thirty percent, this “Resilience” talent, when fully mastered, could increase the defense limit by another forty percent.

When these two talents were combined, it directly reached seventy percent. Which peer could break Chen Fei’s limit? Even if a prodigy from the Sacred Land wielded a high-grade spiritual treasure, the result would be the same.

Of course, even if others possessed the talent “Resilience,” the effect wouldn’t be as exaggerated as Chen Fei’s because “Resilience” converted damage into defense after being attacked.

You had to endure the damage first before it could be converted, which had a certain order and process. Unlike the talent “Domain Suppression,” which directly raised the defense limit.

With the talent “Resilience,” if you couldn’t withstand the damage, you would be directly broken.

Chen Fei’s mind was greatly stirred, almost uncontrollable, wanting to directly activate the talent “Resilience” and return to the direction he came from.

Excluding these talents, Chen Fei’s defense was already very strong due to the techniques he practiced.

Moreover, Chen Fei also had a clone, which could now bear twenty percent of the pressure limit.

Although the pressure borne by the clone would gradually diminish as Chen Fei’s future realm improved, eventually becoming negligible, the pressure limit brought by talents would remain unchanged.

There was also the talent “Domain Suppression,” which was currently at thirty percent. However, when it broke its limit to “Prison Suppression” in the future, it would be sixty percent. Adding the forty percent from “Resilience” would directly reach one hundred percent.

With this setup, even the idea of putting on a turtle shell would be child’s play before Chen Fei.

His ability to survive had instantly increased by a large margin, and this didn’t conflict with his future Blood Rebirth ability. Because with the increase in survival ability, under the feedback of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, it meant a tremendous increase in combat power.

It was too insane and Chen Fei loved it!

Glancing ahead at the remaining clusters of light, and considering the acceptable level of divine soul consumption, Chen Fei decided to take another look.

[Swift: Upon being attacked, speed increases]

Yet another talent that became stronger after being attacked.

Chen Fei’s expression appeared somewhat strange. All these talents, why were they all triggered by being attacked?

What was the deal with the inner cosmos of this body, producing such talents? It seemed like he had a masochistic tendency.

The talent “Swift,” increasing speed afterbeingattacked, wasn’t just about agility; it also enhanced the speed of striking.

In principle, it was somewhat similar to “Resilience,” with one converting others’ attacks into defensive power, while the other transformed it into internal power related to agility.

Chen Fei already had the talent “Teleportation,” so an increase in agility wasn’t meaningless to him, but it wasn’t as beneficial as other talents.

However, an increase in striking speed was excellent, something Chen Fei valued.

“Roar of Fury,” “Resilience,” “Swift,” “Hidden Fury”!

Chen Fei suddenly felt a surge of excitement. If someone chose these four talents, wouldn’t they form a perfect system?

Being attacked would increase defense and striking speed, while any delay caused by “Roar of Fury” could be compensated for by “Swift.”

If there was also a specialized technique legacy to complement these four talents, the combat power would instantly skyrocket, giving rise to an entity that grew stronger with each battle!
