I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second Chapter 631: An Unexpected Surprise! Coveted Spoils of War

A group of Blue Star professionals, drawn by the commotion, were observed soaring through the air and rapidly converging on Lin Yi’s location.

As they navigated past the defeated blue humanoid entities, they efficiently collected the blue crystal cores that emerged from their demise.

Blue Star’s intelligence network contained no comprehensive data on Elemental Star creatures, nor any indication that they would yield crystals upon death.

Although no explicit guidance was given, the professionals dispatched from Blue Star were far from ordinary; they could discern the potent water elemental energy and abundant source power harbored within these blue crystals.

A single assessment was sufficient to establish the significant value of these blue crystals.

Initially, Lin Yi paid them little mind.

Upon hearing their remarks, he too employed his Eye of All-Seeing to examine the recently dropped battle spoils.

[Intermediate Water Spirit Crystal]

[A unique special material originating from Elemental Star, yielding a guaranteed drop when Elemental Star creatures are slain; the potency of the dropped spirit crystal escalates with the slain creature's level and quality.]

[Through specific refinement processes and the incorporation of supplementary alchemical materials, consumption can enhance a professional's elemental affinity and source power.]

....

Lin Yi felt a wave of mild exasperation wash over him.

How could such carelessness have befallen him?

During his previous engagement on Insect Hive Star, Lin Yi had contended with the fire-elemental creatures native to Elemental Star.

At that time, leveraging the formidable Eternal Law and the advantage of elemental opposition, Lin Yi had effortlessly immobilized all the fire-elemental creatures in ice.

The Eternal Law possessed a certain destructive capability.

However, its offensive power was not its most striking feature.

Its primary characteristic is eternal stasis, which meant those elemental creatures were merely permanently encased in ice, not annihilated.

The professionals hailing from Blue Star held considerable faith in Lin Yi’s Eternal Power.

They paid no heed to the pale blue ice sculptures left behind, resulting in no Elemental Spirit Crystals being obtained that day.

Upon reflection, he realized he had indeed been too negligent. He should have subjugated all the fire creatures then and subsequently utilized the Touch of Reincarnation to fully comprehend their nature.

While lost in thought, several hundred elite Blue Star professionals materialized successively behind Lin Yi, a significant number of whom had attained the War God level.

The two planets employed divergent metrics for assessing the prowess of their most formidable individuals.

Nevertheless, Elemental Star creatures could accurately gauge the strength of the intruding Blue Star contingent by perceiving the fluctuations in their source power.

Even setting Lin Yi aside, the formidable presence of a single War God leading thirty elite professionals was sufficient to present a formidable challenge to them.

"What is the course of action, Lin Yi? You shall decide!"

"Lin Yi, it appears the primary objective of this expedition is to secure these elemental creatures as resources."

"Following Lin Yi guarantees a substantial reward; the War Gods in the exploration team have long recognized this. Now that I am part of this team, perhaps upon my return, I too will be a figure of great standing!"

With each passing second, hundreds of professionals materialized in organized formations, arraying themselves neatly behind Lin Yi.

A considerable contingent of high-tier Mages and Priests, possessing abilities effective against magical forces, alongside skilled Assassins, were present. Furthermore, potent healers stood ready for deployment.

The very composition of this force indicated the earnest commitment the Blue Star Professional Alliance had made to this endeavor.

The cacophony of discussions was imbued with an air of relaxed confidence.

The Elemental Star, with its planetary will significantly less developed than that of Blue Star, was inherently destined to possess a far inferior overall power.

Thousands of elemental creatures, whose might was comparable only to Blue Star’s Tier Seven professionals, were paralyzed with fear in the face of the overwhelming Blue Star elite force, even losing the instinct to flee.

Lin Yi slowly elevated his hand, executing a simple gesture that instantaneously imposed silence upon the entire chaotic battlefield.

The only audible sound was the thunderous palpitations of the low-level elemental creatures' hearts, resonating with deafening intensity.

"Inhabitants of Blue Star, previously, during our engagement with the Elemental Star creatures, my reliance on the Eternal Law and the subsequent failure to annihilate them all led to the overlooking of crucial intelligence."

"The elemental creatures before you will yield valuable Elemental Spirit Crystals upon their demise. These crystals offer significant advantages in augmenting elemental affinity, improving control, and bolstering power. Therefore, do not hesitate in the impending battle!"

His pronouncement was met with an immediate surge of jubilant shouts.

The collective enthusiasm for combat within the entire Blue Star exploration team surged to its zenith.

The very fact that the dropped materials had garnered such high commendation from Lin Yi was definitive proof of their immense value.

For Mages, improving their elemental affinity is generally a simpler task. For example, Lin Yi achieved the highest level of affinity with various elements due to his mastery of numerous different elemental Forbidden Curses.

In contrast, other types of professionals, such as Warriors and Assassins, face a different situation. These professionals are unable to enhance their elemental affinity through skill proficiency. In combat, their only recourse is to rely on support professionals with enchanting skills to imbue their weapons with elemental properties.

However, with the introduction of these dropped materials capable of enhancing elemental affinity, they can now acquire their own unique elemental power through their skills, leading to a significant increase in their combat strength. The low-level elemental creatures on Elemental Star were initially overcome with terror due to the vast disparity in power and numbers between them and the professionals from Blue Star. Now, witnessing the reddened eyes of the Blue Star group fixed upon them, their fear escalated to an extreme degree.

They were utterly baffled as to how the gaze of these Blue Star professionals could be so uniformly intense, with every pair of pupils radiating an overwhelming longing. Before any of the elemental creatures present could even twitch a muscle, Lin Yi snapped his fingers. Harnessing the might of the Eternal Law, he activated his law skill, [Ice Manipulation]! A colossal ice sphere erupted instantaneously, encasing both the assembled Blue Star professionals and all the surrounding elemental creatures.

The ambient temperature in the vicinity plummeted to a frigid minus fifty degrees Celsius. Naturally, only the elemental creatures native to Elemental Star experienced this bone-chilling cold. Following his acquisition of Divine Power, Lin Yi's command over the Power of Law had attained an exquisitely precise level. He was now capable of executing all his skills with absolute perfection.

Targets within the range of his skills remained unaffected by the skill's effects, unless it was Lin Yi's explicit intention for them to be affected. Unmatched in one-on-one duels, unparalleled in support capabilities across Blue Star, and possessing crowd control abilities that left observers breathless. Elemental Star undoubtedly harbored formidable creatures.

But regardless of how powerful they were, could any possibly surpass Lin Yi? From the very instant they detected the formidable intruders, the inhabitants of Elemental Star had mobilized with all haste. Yet, upon their arrival, without exception, they could only clench their fists in impotent rage and curse inwardly. With the backing of Divine Power from the Eternal Law, how many inhabitants on Elemental Star would dare to issue a challenge?!
