Awakening：The Infinite Evolution of My Talent as a Low-Level Awakener-Chapter 734 - : The Strongest Legendary Ability: Star Threads?

Listening to Augustine's words, Sterl maintained a calm expression on the outside, but inwardly, his thoughts were in turmoil.

The royal city of Orichalcum was no small matter. It was a powerful artifact created by great gods, essentially a treasure of divine power at the level of Divine Power. It was far superior to any so-called ancient artifact or overlord equipment—it was incomparable!

Moreover, the royal city was incredibly sturdy. Even with Sterl's Star-Bone Body activated, he couldn't destroy it in the short term. What's more, this was not the complete royal city; it was still in the process of merging. Once it fully fused with the world, its strength would increase exponentially.

This was comparable to the Hall of Valor, after all. The gods of Orichalcum had always relied on the protection of the royal city to drift through the Endless Void; without it, they would have vanished long ago.

If he could control the royal city, it would undoubtedly become a trump card for Sterl. Whether it was resisting the upcoming Great Calamity or fending off the powerful beings of the upper realms, it would be a divine artifact in his hands!

However, the key was control. If he couldn't master it, once the royal city fully recovered, it would immediately turn against him with ferocious force.

The reason he had ordered Kun and the others to set up defenses at the world's center, instead of directly occupying the royal city, was because of this.

If they had moved in without controlling the city first, it would have been like willingly jumping into a pit of fire.

Moreover, if he could seize control of the royal city, wouldn't the treasures within its vault be fully unlocked?

At that point, he could freely use the vast resources stored in the vault, allowing him to rapidly grow even stronger.

"Do you really have a way?"

Sterl questioned again.

The royal city was the product of great gods. Although Augustine, as a Frost Giant Dragon who had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, had seen much, he wasn't even a Divine Power himself. His credibility was still in question.

"Master, I... I was told by my grandfather, who was once a Divine Power, and only a step away from that level. All of this knowledge comes from the records left by my ancestors."

"Not only the royal city of Orichalcum, but also the Ashen Temple, the Hall of Valor, and even my Dragon Clan's Sacred Dragon Hall... all of them... all of them can be..."

At this point, Augustine paused, somewhat anxious, and spoke more cautiously.

"Only... only..."

"Only what?"

Sterl smiled faintly, his expression warm, but it sent a chill down Augustine's spine.

"However, the backlash from the will of the royal city is extremely powerful. So powerful that... even a Divine Power would find it difficult to withstand.

And it affects the soul. I'm not sure exactly how strong it is, but if you fail... your soul will..."

His voice trailed off, growing quieter as regret flooded his heart. He wished he hadn't said anything. This was like digging his own grave!

The will contained within such an artifact is generally that of the creator, the power left behind by the great gods.

Even though this will may have weakened over time, it is still not something that a Divine Power can easily resist.

The gap between the great gods and Divine Powers is far greater than the gap between a legendary being and a Divine Power. After all, these are beings capable of creating worlds and divine realms!

Wouldn't this visible yet unattainable thing anger the creator and cause them to slap him to death?

The more Augustine thought about it, the more worried he became. His body involuntarily started to tremble. That slap earlier had left a huge shadow in his mind.

Sterl easily saw through the old dragon's thoughts. Augustine was a coward through and through, otherwise, he wouldn't have been hiding in such a desolate place for hundreds of thousands of years.

If it weren't for the Dragon Clan's long lifespan and their limit of life force reaching the level of a high-ranking Divine Power, Augustine would probably have died in that place long ago.

However, Sterl didn't get angry. Instead, he felt even more pleased.

If it were any other power, he would have to think carefully, but when it came to the soul level... this was perfect!

"It seems like you know quite a few secrets."

"This... little dragon only learned a few things by chance, but Master, if there's anything you'd like to know, I'll answer without hesitation, leaving nothing out!"

Augustine gave a sly smile and immediately offered his complete loyalty.

"Alright, stay here. If you try to run, I'll skin you and roast you for dinner."

Augustine froze completely, standing motionless. His intuition told him that Sterl wasn't just threatening him. If he tried to run, he would definitely be eaten.

Entering the royal city and gaining complete control over it was something Augustine was very interested in, but not yet. Even if he planned to try, he needed to be fully prepared.

The reason for coming here was to test his legendary ability and to make subsequent improvements.

Compared to that, the royal city in its weakened state, as long as he used a Law vortex to block the upper realms' surveillance, was the safest place for him.

Of course, this only applied to him alone. If anything went wrong, he wouldn't be able to protect his subordinates.

Arriving at the core of the royal city, within the Hall of Gods, Sterl waved his hand. Hundreds of different Laws converged, forming a chaotic Law barrier that isolated all possible surveillance.

Next, Sterl began to examine his newly awakened legendary ability.

[Legendary Ability: Star Threads]

[Category: Special]

[Description: Based on your innate talent and class, with the entire world as a nurturing bed and a vast amount of legend points as nourishment, the strongest legendary base has come together to form your exclusive legendary ability!]

[Effect: Your ability to control star power is enhanced by 100%. After activation, you can control star power and transform it into Star Threads. Star Threads have extremely high resilience, sharpness, and corrosion abilities, which can be used for killing enemies, assisting, or refining... As your mastery over star power grows stronger, the properties of the Star Threads will be enhanced accordingly.

Enemies bound by Star Threads will be subjected to the restraints of star power. If the power of the bound is lower than yours, they will be in a stunned state. If their speed is lower than yours, their defenses will decrease by 100%. If their physical constitution is weaker than yours, they will be paralyzed, with all their active abilities sealed. If their mental strength is lower than yours, they will receive soul-impact damage equal to [(Your soul strength - enemy's soul strength) × 2]!**

Star Threads are extremely sharp. Units strangled by Star Threads will have all of their life force drained, allowing you to recover your own health, energy, stamina, and Divine Power...

Star Threads can be solidified by concentrating star power, extending their duration...

Note: The true strength lies not in the ability itself, but in the one who wields it. Let your imagination run wild.]

Gazing at his newly awakened legendary ability, Sterl narrowed his eyes and began to think deeply.

This ability wasn't like other legendary abilities, which typically had a very specific effect.

For example, he had previously obtained a legendary ability.

[Legendary Ability: Inspire]

[Category: Command]

[Description: This legendary ability is a combination of the second awakening talent [Command] and the skills [High Morale (Golden)] and [Full Army Preparation (Golden)].]

[Effect: Upon activation, all friendly units within range receive a 20% increase in attributes, a 20% boost to movement speed, a 20% increase in skill casting speed, and gain 20% lifesteal. When Inspire is activated, all controlled effects on friendly units are removed.]

However, such a legendary ability has a tier restriction. For beings above the legendary level, using Inspire would have no effect.

On the other hand, the effects of Star Threads were straightforward and brutal.

Simply put, it meant using star power to condense it into Star Threads. These threads possessed a variety of traits, and how they were used depended entirely on the user's imagination.

It seemed outlandish, but that was the reality. And the characteristics of Star Threads could only be described as overpowered!

Once an enemy was entangled, a fourfold judgment effect would occur. If any of the judgments failed, it was as good as instant death!

The description didn't clarify how long the control would last.

The most powerful effect, especially the mental judgment, was essentially a super kill. How high was Sterl's soul strength?

The soul-impacting damage it caused could likely explode the enemy's soul!

Of course, this would only be the case if there were no tier restrictions.

Without tier restrictions, this ability would be as powerful as Star-Bone Sacred Body and Soul Prison's Eerie Eyes, offering potent control and area-of-effect damage.

"Let's test its power first."

Sterl's thoughts shifted. After awakening his Star-Bone Sacred Body talent, his control over star power had become much easier. Coupled with the enhancement of star power manipulation granted by Star Threads, his abilities were greatly amplified.

Soon, a sphere of star power appeared in his hand. But unlike before, this time, he had a distinct feeling: he could control the star power in his hand, altering its form.

As Star Threads activated, the star power in his hand began to stretch and change… In less than one-tenth of a second, the star power vanished from his hand.

"Is this Star Threads?"

Sterl looked at the results with interest. Upon closer inspection, the star power had disappeared, leaving his hand empty.

But in reality, a thread too fine to see with the naked eye now rested in his palm, as if a gentle breath could make it vanish into nothing.

In terms of physical measurement, the thickness of this Star Thread was only one micrometer—0.001 nanometers.

So fine that even a single cell could split in half.

Moreover, the Star Threads were covered with a special resonance, making them difficult to detect with ordinary perception. If not for Sterl's incredibly strong soul and terrifyingly sharp perception, even he might have missed it if not paying close attention.
