Laws and talents

Lion's Pride Inn in Goldshire.

Yang Jian sat on the bed in his second-floor bedroom, reviewing the gains from his trip.

He had collected 55 sets of materials to craft the [Falling · Doren's Demise Arrow (Gold)]!

Actually, about fifty sets would have been enough.

But since they were already right in front of him, not buying them simply wasn't Yang Jian's style.

Everything else was fine.

The only problem was that Yang Jian was truly strapped for cash now.

He only had a few thousand gold coins left in his pocket!

It could be said that in the Eastern District of Zhenhai City, he couldn't even afford a decent house!

In Zhenhai City now, a slightly better street-front shop had already risen to over ten thousand gold.

A high-end residence also cost more than five thousand...

He looked at the trees outside the window and the flowing river.

Yang Jian closed his eyes and sensed the movements around him!

Safe!

Yang Jian took out the city heart that had been stored in his backpack for a long time... [Name: city heart Enchanted with Time-Space Laws]

[Description: salvation and the Abyss have an agreement; both sides maintain limited cooperation and confrontation! Therefore, they must leave a door open for the other's next move! For example, with this enchanted city heart, if the Abyss can seize it, it's already halfway to success!]

[Note: salvation needs to leave a door open for the Abyss, and it's the same for the Abyss! The Abyss Gate on Lonely Star Island and Blackwing Tower are backdoors left by the Abyss...]

Yang Jian had already seen this message a long time ago.

But last time on Lonely Star Island.

Even though Yang Jian killed all the Abyssal Monsters on the island, he never thought about going over!

Before he mastered an effective escape skill, he wasn't prepared to take risks casually.

When he was in Tian Yao Realm.

Yang Jian dared to delve deep into the Abyss because Tian Yao Realm had thoroughly investigated the situation on the other side.

The two sides hadn't had a major war for a long time.

Not many strong individuals were left behind!

And the demon cultivators of Tian Yao Realm often went to the other side for a stroll.

They even had detailed maps of the situation over there...

Meanwhile, the New World was in full swing!

He had to let the guild players scout ahead first.

Yang Jian looked at the [Time-Space Altar: city heart (Outer)] in front of him.

He began to activate the effect of his Devouring Spirit Body.

He wanted to devour the Time-Space Laws within it...

The power of a golden talent was extremely formidable.

But this city heart, imbued with the Time-Space Laws of Blue Star.

Clearly, it wasn't an ordinary item either!

It was like a tug-of-war in the dark.

The laws that Yang Jian wanted to absorb were like a pool with its stopper pulled out, constantly sucking the laws back in!

Strands of law power were laboriously extracted by Yang Jian's talent.

After an immense effort, he finally felt the law power entering his body.

Yang Jian's attribute panel was also quietly changing.

[Name: Yang Jian, ID: Tianmu Zhenjun]

[Equipment: azure sky three realms blade (Orange), heart of khaz'goroth (Blue), malorne's oath of loyalty (Orange), zhou yue's declaration of love (Orange)...]

He looked up and down at his attributes.

Yang Jian's changes were still significant.

Especially after entering the First Turn realm, the suppression limiting his upper limit was also lifted.

His attributes began to continue growing.

However, when he saw the law attribute.

Yang Jian still frowned.

It took him nearly two hours.

He fully activated his Devouring Spirit Body, trying to devour the law power attached to the city heart.

But he didn't expect that, on the game system panel.

He had only successfully absorbed one wisp each of Time Law and Space Law...

This progress could no longer be simply described as slow.

And the zero-tier law mastery had no effect on Yang Jian at all!

He checked the time; Yang Jian had been out for four days!

If he continued at this rate, it would delay things too much!

Yang Jian originally thought it would be like devouring equipment.

It would be over in a flash!

Now, there were many things in the New World that Yang Jian needed to do.

If the efficiency could be just a little bit faster...

If he could even reach Tier 1 by the ten-day deadline.

Yang Jian believed it would be a qualitative leap for him.

It wasn't that there were no gains.

Yang Jian at least clarified the situation regarding this bit of law power.

Now it seemed that upgrading his talent was already imminent!

As for why he didn't extract in the New World and Blue Star... he could only say he had a guilty conscience!

Yang Jian's actions had almost stood up both the Abyss and the Gods!

How could he dare!

When Yang Jian returned to Dragon Head Camp again.

The outer city here had already been completed!

The blacksmith shop that Yang Jian had specifically instructed to build was also finished!

At Yang Jian's request.

The flames of the Dragon Head Camp blacksmith shop used three orange flame essences that Yang Jian brought back from the Abyss!

Although the tier wasn't golden flames.

The level was definitely high enough!

They were all level eighty or ninety orange flames.

If it weren't for obtaining these materials from the River of Flames in the Eight Desolate Prison.

The flames for this blacksmith shop would have been really difficult to manage!

Now Yang Jian inspected the blacksmith shop at Dragon Head Camp.

It's good!

At least for the arrows he wanted to forge, this place was sufficient.

Since he was back, Yang Jian decided to return to Lingyun City to check the current situation.

As soon as Yang Jian returned to Blue Star, he felt a strange connection with Blue Star!

He could feel the planet's lament.

He could also feel the Blue Star space being riddled with holes!

He even clearly sensed six locations where external forces were trying to tear space apart.

Trying to open a connection with Blue Star!

Yang Jian knew.

This was because of that wisp of Space Law connection... After all, it was Space Law that he had snatched from Blue Star.

Of course, with his current meager understanding of laws.

He could only have these vague perceptions.

He couldn't do anything more.

He arrived at the Lingyun City Command Center.

The city's outer leadership and the guild's outer management were mostly here, handling Blue Star's trivial matters.

Seeing Yang Jian arrive, they all stood up to greet him.

“Mr. Yang...”

“What's the situation on Blue Star these past few days?”

Mo Suqing's external affairs secretary immediately began to report the current situation to Yang Jian.

“Within four days, Blue Star has successively built seven Time-Space Altars, and nearly 500,000 people have reached the Spirit-Body Unity realm!”

“That many? Who are they?”

“The three major nations each arranged for at least 100,000 people to come out...”

“The three major nations?”

“The European Union hasn't made any moves yet!”

Yang Jian nodded in understanding... They seemed to be like a dying old man.

Immersed in past glory.

Slow to react, only passively awaiting death!

As for the others, of course, they were actions by other forces or individuals... “Additionally, there are currently over three hundred Abyssal Monsters missing on Blue Star!”

“Reports of attacks are frequently coming in from all over the world...”

Yang Jian nodded.

The situation wasn't too bad... The Abyss was still trying to squeeze in, and Yang Jian couldn't open the door to welcome thieves!

He might as well go upgrade his talent first...
