I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second Chapter 650: A Lin Yi? Devouring of the Planetary Will

Further still is the Power of Law.
Regarded as the benchmark for Blue Star's formidable individuals, its significance is self-evident. This authoritative might eclipses the forces of nature, an ability far exceeding forbidden curses and martial soul skills, a hierarchy that seems entirely logical.
Elevated even beyond the Power of Law is the Power of the Primordial, a concept intimately familiar to all cultivators on Blue Star.
When confronted by a powerhouse wielding the Power of the Primordial, mere laws, whether ordinary or supreme, dissolve instantly. They shatter like fragile bubbles against incandescent steel, collapsing without a trace.
Yet, the Power of the Primordial does not reign supreme without exception.
Lin Yi experienced this truth firsthand during his battle against Calamity.
The Power of the Primordial possessed by Calamity far surpassed the Saint Transformation Level. Without the sliver of Divine Power granted by Zacks, Lin Yi would have stood no chance of victory.
Now, having successfully refined that ram-headed Divine Envoy, Lin Yi possesses his own Divine Power.
As matters stand, enhancing his comprehension of the Power of the Primordial and augmenting the potency of his Divine Power is an impossibility on Blue Star.
On Blue Star, the most fundamental plane within the Three Realms and Six Paths, genuine elemental energy of this caliber is exceedingly scarce.
Lin Yi remains uncertain if he can find a method to bolster his Divine Power upon ascending to the mid-plane. However, to further develop the Power of the Primordial, interdimensional travel is an absolute necessity.
As for the other powerful corpse lingering beside Lin Yi, he did not allow it to go to waste.
Utilizing the Touch of Reincarnation to absorb its fundamental attributes and lingering memories, Lin Yi made his return to the Elemental Star.
The atmosphere on the battlefield of Elemental Star had undergone a complete transformation.
Though the planet remained engulfed in chaos, active combat had ceased.
The scattered Elemental Spirit Crystals within the chaotic expanse represent treasures of immense rarity.
The cultivators who were both powerful and fortunate managed to awaken crystals formed from the fusion of two or even three elements.
Conversely, the less fortunate were compelled to seek out and absorb solitary, ordinary Elemental Spirit Crystals.
For cultivators of Blue Star, possessing strength traditionally equates to the freedom to act with impunity, driven by their dominance.
However, when it came to Lin Yi, their actions showed deference, and they heeded his counsel with seriousness.
What is destined to occur will occur; what is not meant to be should not be pursued with force.
Having successfully secured their opportunities, cultivators from various nations commenced the task of gathering and categorizing the acquired materials.
The prospect of returning home filled them with immense excitement.
Despite the substantial gains Blue Star reaped from this expedition, several cultivators tragically paid the ultimate price.
Those individuals who had been afflicted by the parasitic black sinister lightning were fortunate indeed to have their lives spared by Lin Yi.
They all understood that with each world conquered, Blue Star's resource base would expand, enabling those whose cultivation had stagnated to finally achieve breakthroughs and progress further.
Consequently, the cultivators of Blue Star were filled with eagerness to conclude their mission and return home.
A primary motivation for this urgency was the desire to return home and recount tales of standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Lin Yi to their families and friends.
At the precise moment Lin Yi's true form manifested, cultivators from every nation on Blue Star suspended their activities, offering a respectful salute to Lin Yi: Dragon God War God!
Lin Yi acknowledged their greetings with a nod.
He then ascended into the heavens, plunging into the boundless chaos.
Simultaneously, the title displayed above Lin Yi's head ignited: [Master of Will]
Subsequently, the second phase of [Will Projection] was initiated, drawing the Blue Star's Will unto himself.
As anticipated, within mere seconds of sustained, full-powered flight, Lin Yi halted before a swirling mass of turbid black liquid suspended above Elemental Star.
This viscous, dark fluid bore a striking resemblance to the black sinister lightning previously unleashed by Chaos.
Sensing an arrival, the black liquid coalesced, assuming a humanoid form—mirroring the appearance of Chaos itself.
Naturally, Lin Yi was acutely aware.
The entity before him was not Chaos.
Rather, it was the planetary consciousness of Elemental Star, long corrupted by Chaos, causing it to adopt Chaos's likeness.
Despite the absence of any visible abnormalities, Lin Yi could discern from the Primordial Force emanating from the planetary consciousness that it was now akin to an elderly being nearing its final moments.
Even if it were to launch an attack, it posed no threat to Lin Yi.
"As expected, when a planet's life force is extinguished, its planetary consciousness becomes exceedingly vulnerable."
Perceiving the presence of an entity not native to Elemental Star, the chaos-resembling planetary consciousness raised a palm and brought it crashing down towards Lin Yi.
Lin Yi made no move to evade the incoming strike.
The power of the Blue Star Will, now enhanced, far surpassed the fading planetary consciousness of Elemental Star.
A simple shrug from Lin Yi unleashed a terrifying force, sending the Elemental Star planetary consciousness reeling backward.
After enduring Lin Yi’s assault, the ancient figure grew even more ethereal, appearing on the verge of dissipation.
Before the Elemental Star planetary consciousness could stabilize its tumbling motion, a pale blue, transparent figure intercepted it.
Upon closer inspection, this ethereal figure bore an exact resemblance to Lin Yi.
Without uttering a single word, the pale blue figure seized the Elemental Star planetary consciousness and proceeded to tear it apart, consuming it.
In mere moments, the pale blue imitation of Lin Yi had completely devoured its prey.
There was no need to question the identity of this pale blue Lin Yi.
As Lin Yi was the first individual to ever interact with a planetary consciousness, it naturally adopted his image as a model for its own form.
“Indeed, the experience of personally harvesting a planetary consciousness is far different than dealing with its remnants; my improvement this time is substantial,” the entity stated.
“However, kid, I still cannot offer you significant assistance. I can sense that once you confront Ancient Ape Star, my own strength might ascend to the level of the Desire Realm’s Beast Dao.”
“Even at that level, I will be unable to grant you training in the Power of the Primordial, nor will I be able to bestow Divine Power upon you.”
Lin Yi gazed at the figure identical to himself and offered a slight nod.
From the outset, Lin Yi had never harbored the expectation of enhancing his power on Blue Star to a degree that would allow him to contend with celestial gods.
His encounters with Elemental Star and Ancient Ape Star were, in part, aimed at bolstering the planetary consciousness and, consequently, advancing Blue Star’s overall strength. They also served to gather the necessary 'proofs' for his eventual ascension.
“Regardless, simply open that one-way passage,” Lin Yi instructed.
With those words spoken, Lin Yi rapidly accelerated toward the central region of Elemental Star, commencing a steep descent.
Possessing an exceptionally high Elemental Affinity, Lin Yi was nearly impervious to all forms of elemental damage, allowing him to penetrate the depths of Elemental Star unimpeded and without the slightest difficulty.
After a duration of two minutes, his objective finally came into view.
It was a white, transparent bead radiating a gentle luminescence—enveloped within the Power of the Primordial, this was the Elemental Star Core.
For ordinary powerful beings, the star core, which dictates a planet’s future trajectory, was utterly unobtainable.
But for Lin Yi, it was within his easy grasp!
