I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second Chapter 682: The Ultimate Evolution of the Void Forbidden Curse

Wu Jue Dian’s eyebrows instantly knitted together as he felt the overbearing might of his opponent’s fist.

He couldn’t help but wonder why he, after dedicating so many years to the path of cultivation, was finding himself at a disadvantage against a mere youth. What was the point of his thousands of years of diligent cultivation?

How could this possibly be fair!

His mind drifted for a moment, and the power he was using to clash inadvertently dwindled. In his carelessness, a force as heavy as ten thousand tons descended without mercy. Before he could even react, his body was slammed forcefully into the ground.

"Old coot, fighting with me and you still get distracted? Aren’t you scared I’ll send you to meet your ancestors with a single punch?"

On a planet shrouded in darkness with limited visibility, the unstoppable attack further ruptured the already fractured ground. Moist, sticky fragments of stone and soil were flung about, completely obscuring the view.

Observing this spectacle, the Shadow Devouring Race, unable to truly gauge the power exerted by the two combatants, became terrified and retreated into the ground’s fissures, frightened by the sudden turn of events.

The vast and majestic fluctuations of Source Power immediately drew Lin Yi’s attention.

However, Lin Yi couldn’t even be bothered to lift his head for a glance.

A skill attack devoid of the Power of Law was nothing but a futile gesture to Lin Yi.

With a frigid snort, he slowly elevated his right hand, moving to confront the colossal blade that seemed poised to cleave the very sky.

Even the more formidable Shadow Devouring monsters, which remained unfazed by the Heaven-Breaking Slash, fixated their gaze upon the young man suspended in the air.

As beings possessing both Source Power and the Power of Law, even without exceptional intellect, the Shadow Devourers could distinctly perceive that Lin Yi had not engaged any Source Power or the Power of Law at this juncture.

Could it be that this human intended to face that terrifying slash with nothing but his bare body?

Buzz, buzz, buzz～

The piercing shriek of the blade slicing through the air caused lesser Shadow Devourers to disintegrate merely from the soundwaves, let alone withstand the impact of this Heaven-Breaking Slash.

Yet, the young man positioned high in the heavens remained utterly unaffected.

Within his grasp resided boundless might. The colossal blade, coalesced from immense Source Power, spanned thousands of meters in length and tens of meters in width, possessing the capability to cleave the sky. It was completely halted the instant it met his palm, unable to advance even an inch.

As the one who unleashed the attack, Wu Jue Dian could clearly feel that regardless of the force he exerted, his maneuver was futile, akin to attempting to tip the scales by adding weight.

Despite Wu Jue Dian’s veins bulging and his muscles swelling manifold, he could not impose the slightest pressure upon Lin Yi.

Conversely, Lin Yi appeared relaxed, exhibiting no signs of strain.

With a gentle clench of his palm, one of Wu Jue Dian’s ultimate techniques, the Heaven-Breaking Slash, disintegrated into scattered starlight of Source Power, vanishing into the atmosphere.

The backlash from a failed skill is an unavoidable consequence, even for a formidable cultivator like Wu Jue Dian.

A fleeting lapse in concentration during a duel between skilled combatants can, to a significant degree, determine the ultimate outcome.

Numerous potent yet not exceptionally high-tier skills could be instantly deployed by Lin Yi, negating the need for any charge-up time. This was especially true for skills influenced by the Void of Ignorance, which possessed terrifying efficacy and, under the augmentation of Primordial Chaos, could manifest astronomical figures.

[Forbidden Curse: Void of Ignorance]

[Type: Passive Skill]

[Rank: Ninth Rank]

[System: Void]

[Cost: None]

[Chanting Time: None]

[Cooldown: None]

[Effect 1: A randomly selected elemental skill of yours will be corrupted by the unknown entity known as the Void of Ignorance for a specific duration, manifesting in a new form upon corruption.]

[Effect 2: Now you...]

[Effect 3: Currently, all adversaries vanquished by you will be ensnared by the law of the void, vanishing into the Void of Ignorance, never to return. The kill count acquired through this effect will be converted into the damage value for all corrupted skills.]

[As your kill count escalates, you will gradually draw the attention of certain enigmatic entities within the Void of Ignorance, who may occasionally manifest in your realm while you employ skills, offering minor assistance.]

[Current Corrupted Skill: Blazing Flame Light Wheel! (14 hours 44 minutes 34 seconds)]

[Current Kill Count: 146397638456]

[Current Transformed Damage Value: 99999999]

[Current Level of Attracting Attention: The Focus of All]

[Note: The Void is Never Satisfied]

At present, the second effect of the skill is of minor consequence.

However, the third effect is entirely different.

The conflict on the Insect Hive Star facilitated the complete and ultimate transformation of Lin Yi’s Void Forbidden Curse.

The sheer numbers of the Insect Race were staggeringly immense.

In prior trials, the adversaries Lin Yi encountered were of limited quantity.

It was solely the Insect Hive Star that provided Lin Yi with an inexhaustible supply of foes to vanquish with utmost satisfaction.

Every corrupted skill Lin Yi conjured now boasted immeasurable power.

After corruption, the skill 'Blazing Flame Light Wheel' acquired a completely new power, now on par with the forbidden curse skill [Demon Wheel Burst].

Due to its not particularly high skill rank, [Demon Wheel Burst] was unleashed a staggering 6744 times through the multiple casting technique of Primordial Chaos!

By the time Wu Jue Dian recovered from the shock of the broken skill’s backlash, he was already engulfed by the bewitching purple flames before him.

Lin Yi remained suspended in the air, his left hand raised high, with a fiery ring approximately 10 meters in diameter swirling playfully at his fingertips.

Any formidable individual with keen insight could readily perceive the wild, unending power contained within the peculiar purple fire coalesced into a ring.

Even the Source Power, compressed into a ring, was disintegrating piece by piece, suggesting that Lin Yi himself, the skill's wielder, was barely maintaining control.

Yet, behind Lin Yi, more than six thousand of these terrifying rings awaited.

If all of them were to connect, even a supreme powerhouse like Wu Jue Dian would be reduced to mere dust.

"Go~"

Lin Yi made a motion with his hand, and all the [Demon Wheel Bursts] suspended in the vast expanse surged toward Wu Jue Dian.

Should he evade its sharpness?

Who would bother? After all, apart from the non-speaking shadow monsters, no other beings existed on this Shadow Devouring Star, making avoidance seem rather pointless.

While Xiang Wuxing might not grasp the concept of forbidden curses, skills themselves were categorized into three levels—low, middle, and high—and three grades—lower, middle, and upper.

Coincidentally, this tiered system aligned with the Blue Star's skill ranks from one to nine.

The full barrage of [Demon Wheel Burst] deployed by Lin Yi, as sensed by Wu Jue Dian, felt nearly equivalent to his own high-grade superior skills.

With these thoughts in mind, an ethereal wind formation materialized beneath Wu Jue Dian's feet, propelling his speed to its zenith. Without a moment's hesitation, he swiftly turned and fled.

His intention was clear: to escape.

"Wu Jue Dian, have you spent so many years scheming and lying in wait, yet you live like a timid old tortoise? I finally offer you a skill, and you lack the courage to accept it?"

Accept it? Accept my head instead!
