Global Towers: Starting With The SSS-Rank Talent, God-Tier Extraction Chapter 1206: Cloud Treading Steps



At first, Liu Yan didn't give it much thought upon noticing it was merely an S-grade skill.

After all, he already possessed a collection of skills, with plenty reaching advanced levels.

Beyond S-grade ones, Liu Yan owned numerous SS-grade skills and even several SSS-grade abilities now. So, an average S-grade skill naturally didn't capture his interest.

Yet, he never anticipated that this S-grade skill, Cloud Treading Steps, would turn out to be exceptionally unique.

Cloud Treading Steps served as a movement technique designed to boost speed.

What set Cloud Treading Steps apart was its distinct nature—it demanded no elemental forces or any form of energy whatsoever. Truly, it stood out.

This implied that employing Cloud Treading Steps wouldn't draw significant notice from foes.

Particularly in assassination scenarios, Cloud Treading Steps enabled stealthy approaches. Moreover, it permitted traversal through the air, offering great utility. Currently, despite Liu Yan's power hitting the mid-stage of 26-star, he depended on the SSS-grade special gear, Wings of Wind God, for routine flying.

Liu Yan might fly using his own power, though it would certainly drain more energy.

In contrast, Cloud Treading Steps facilitated movement in the sky without energy expenditure. Remarkable indeed.

Liu Yan immediately took a strong liking to Cloud Treading Steps. Even as just an S-grade skill, its uniqueness promised valuable support for him. In certain circumstances, it could prove immensely helpful and deliver crucial aid! By now, Liu Yan had fully exploited all from the rainbow spotted white foal.

Naturally, the colorful feather remained.

Still, that colorful feather had previously "slew" Liu Yan once, leaving him deeply wary.

From the rainbow spotted white foal's recollections, the colorful feather carried profound mystery and even strangeness, disorienting Liu Yan considerably.

The unfamiliar often breeds the greatest fear.

Yet, given its immense potency, Liu Yan hesitated to abandon the colorful feather.

After pondering deeply, he resolved to prepare more thoroughly before probing the colorful feather, handling it with utmost care.

Next, Liu Yan proceeded to assess his other acquisitions.

From his storage ring, he retrieved dozens of elite spotted white foal remains along with a heap of regular spotted white foal bodies, then applied Divine Extraction to each in turn.

Liu Yan invoked his SSS divine talent, Divine Extraction, time and again.

Shafts of creamy white glow cascaded onto the spotted white foal carcasses.

The spotted white foal remains shriveled at once, dissolving into energy flows that surged into Liu Yan's form.

Concurrently, messages flashed before Liu Yan's eyes.

"Divine Extraction on the elite spotted white foal corpse (Potential A-grade, Level 213, Combat Strength 20 Stars) succeeds. Congratulations, you receive: Strength +13,421, Constitution +17,212, Agility +21,341, Yin-Yang Seal's power boosted by 10%!"

"Divine Extraction on the elite spotted white foal corpse (Potential A-grade, Level 222, Combat Strength 21 Stars) succeeds. Congratulations, you receive: Strength +17,421, Resistance +16,211, Agility +23,131, Yin-Yang Seal's power boosted by 12%!"

"Divine Extraction on the spotted white foal corpse (Potential B-grade, Level 214, Combat Strength 18 Stars) succeeds. Congratulations, you receive: Constitution +6,712, Resistance +6,312, Agility +10,212, Cloud Treading Steps' power boosted by 5%!" "Divine Extraction on the spotted white foal corpse (Potential B-grade, Level 223, Combat Strength 19 Stars) succeeds. Congratulations, you receive: Constitution +9,712, Resistance +9,312, Agility +13,212, Cloud Treading Steps' power boosted by 7%!"

...

Swiftly, Liu Yan employed Divine Extraction to keep elevating his power.

Not until midday did he complete the Divine Extraction process on the dozens of elite spotted white foals and more than two thousand ordinary ones.

These regular and elite spotted white foals paled in comparison to the rainbow spotted white foal in might. The enhancements they offered Liu Yan remained somewhat modest.

Nevertheless, their sheer quantity—exceeding two thousand corpses—yielded a tremendous overall surge in Liu Yan's abilities, outstripping even the gains from the rainbow spotted white foal.

Sensing the remarkable rise across his various stats, Liu Yan felt deeply content and promptly reviewed his attributes interface.

Having reviewed his attribute panel, Liu Yan brimmed with satisfaction.

Regarding combat strength, he had elevated his battle prowess to the early stage of 28-star successfully.

As for attributes, they appeared somewhat over-the-top. Both strength and constitution had exceeded 300,000.

These spotted white foals excelled in swiftness, thus granting Liu Yan an even larger uplift to his agility, pushing it beyond 400,000. Typical Awakened at Liu Yan's level and combat strength couldn't dream of such inflated stats.

solely Liu Yan, armed with his SSS divine talent Divine Extraction, could keep drawing out enhancements and propel his growth so swiftly, attaining this height.

On the skills front, Divine Extraction had also showered Liu Yan with a host of techniques. Each alone would represent a pinnacle ability that most Awakened could chase lifelong without success. But Liu Yan commanded a vast array! Looking back on his journey since departing the Origin Territory, it unfolded rather directly.

Liu Yan had first ventured to the Flaming Mountain's heart, harnessing it for self-advancement. Afterward, he plunged into the fog realm's depths, confronting the spotted white foal horde, which sparked a horrifying leap in his power.

Upon exiting the Origin Territory for trials, Liu Yan's combat strength lingered at 22 stars.

Now, it soared to an alarming 28 stars.

Merely a week had elapsed.

In that single week, his combat power had skyrocketed by six full stars, matching 60 levels of might.

A progression this defy-heavenly would stun the world if revealed, for it bordered on the absurd. Yet Liu Yan had genuinely accomplished it.

For what lay ahead, Liu Yan found himself a bit torn. Per the pact with the Origin Territory's powerhouses, the training span was pegged at roughly two weeks.

Indeed, lingering too far from the Origin Territory posed risks. The Lakon Territory could uncover it anytime.

Two weeks struck a fair balance—ample for gaining prowess without endangering the Origin Territory's security.

With a week already gone, one week stayed.

Though Liu Yan's power had surged impressively, the daunting Lakon Territory loomed. Naturally, every extra bit of strength mattered.

He ought to seize this remaining week to amplify his might further.

Regrettably, outlining this week proved challenging.

Pushing further into the fog realm might fall short.

After all, the rainbow spotted white foal's memory revealed the spotted white foal herd's domain as enormously expansive.

Ordinary spotted white foals required months to traverse to the edge.

Even with Liu Yan's blistering pace, three days might be needed.

Factoring in the journey back, a week wouldn't suffice for deeper training in the fog realm.

Training in other spots either yielded meager gains or risked Lakon Territory detection. Viable choices seemed scarce.

While grappling with this quandary, Liu Yan remembered the enigmatic colorful feather.

His eyes gleamed. Probing the colorful feather first to find a subduing method seemed wiser.

Thus, Liu Yan stowed the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf, the Golden-eyed Little White Dragon, and the special red enchanted puppet.

Activating the SSS-grade special equipment, Wings of Wind God, he ascended into the heavens, soaring toward the spot where the colorful feather appeared, guided by memory.
