Online Game: Low Drop Rate? I Have a Guaranteed Drop System!-Chapter 219: Spatial Skills, Separating the Consciousness

Johnnie was delighted; he could clearly feel his comprehension had improved.

He looked at the skill book again and exclaimed in surprise, "A spatial skill!"

[Blink: Spatial skill. Requires spatial talent to learn.]

This skill book was even more powerful than the Wisdom Crystal that boosted comprehension!

Johnnie already possessed spatial talent, so he learned it without hesitation.

[Ding, you have learned the skill Blink.]

[Blink: Spatial skill. Cannot be upgraded. Allows free spatial teleportation up to 100 meters. Each cast consumes 10,000 Mana points.]

This was definitely a powerful life-saving skill!

A hundred-meter displacement could get him out of range of most attacks.

Xavier had relied on this very skill to easily dodge Johnnie’s Swordsmanship Technique attacks.

However, the cost was huge. Each use required ten thousand Mana points.

Luckily, Johnnie now had over a million Mana points, so he could use it more than a hundred times. Even against a Divine powerhouse, he’d still have a fighting chance.

He continued refining.

He looked at the Mechanical Law Stone and the Spatial Spiritual Stone in his hand and refined them both.

[Ding, you have refined the Mechanical Law Stone. Mechanical Law Comprehension +1%. Current Mechanical Law Comprehension: 2%.]

[Ding, you have refined the Spatial Spiritual Stone. Spatial Talent Comprehension +5%. Current Spatial Talent Comprehension: 15%.]

Johnnie’s mechanical law and spatial talent had both improved significantly.

But both talents were special abilities and didn’t directly increase his strength.

Johnnie put away the divine essence and Fire-Spirit Stone, since neither was of much use to him at the moment.

He looked at Selene and asked, "How do I separate and condense my consciousness?"

To control the dark-gold Mechanical Golem, he needed to separate his consciousness.

Every living being had consciousness, but separating it was extremely difficult—apparently only the Mechanical Race could do it.

Selene hesitated for a moment and then replied, "My lord, you need to comprehend mechanical talent. With the consumption of 100 Spiritual Stones, you can separate your consciousness."

As she spoke, she took out 100 Spiritual Stones and began teaching him the method to condense and separate consciousness.

Johnnie had already comprehended the mechanical law, which was far beyond mechanical talent, so separating his consciousness shouldn’t be an issue.

Out of curiosity, he checked the properties of the Spiritual Stones.

[Spiritual Stone: God-tier item, contains immense power, can convert Mana points into spiritual energy.]

So these Spiritual Stones were also god-tier items, but their description didn’t mention anything about condensing consciousness.

Johnnie didn’t directly refine the Spiritual Stones. Instead, he followed Selene’s instructions, absorbing the Spiritual Stones’ power to condense and separate his consciousness.

This was much more complicated than simply refining a Spiritual Stone.

Red Carp and the others stood guard around Johnnie, keeping an eye on their surroundings.

This was the territory of the Mechanical Race, and danger could appear at any time.

After half a day, Johnnie had absorbed the energy from a hundred Spiritual Stones, but still hadn’t separated his consciousness.

"My lord, how did it go?" Selene asked quickly when she saw him wake up. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Johnnie shook his head and frowned. "Not enough Spiritual Stones. Do you have any more?"

"A hundred’s not enough?" Selene was surprised. Their own attempts at separating consciousness had only required a hundred Spiritual Stones, but their mechanical talent had been too weak to control a mechanical body.

She took out a dozen more Spiritual Stones and said helplessly, "My lord, this is all I have left."

She glanced over at Helios.

Helios was a Formation Master. Spiritual Stones helped him set up arrays, so he had a lot of them.

But he clearly didn’t want to give them to Johnnie. After hesitating, he said, "My lord, I can lend you some, but you’ll have to return them."

"That’s fine." Johnnie agreed, though he didn’t really like this guy.

Helios finally took out a hundred Spiritual Stones from his pack and handed them over.

Johnnie continued to absorb.

Another half day passed, and over a hundred Spiritual Stones were consumed, but he still hadn’t managed to separate his consciousness.

Still not enough.

Helios had no choice but to hand over another hundred Spiritual Stones.

...

It took a full two days. After absorbing a thousand Spiritual Stones, Johnnie finally managed to condense and separate his consciousness.

Buzz!

A stream of consciousness split from his soul. Johnnie felt a stabbing pain in his soul, his brow furrowing, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

Separation of consciousness actually tore at his soul as well.

Not only that, but his spiritual power was also severely damaged, cut in half on the spot.

Fortunately, by killing undead monsters, he could boost his Soul Intensity, so he had ways to recover both soul and spirit.

"Master, did it work?" Red Carp asked with concern—she was soul-linked with Johnnie and could clearly sense the weakening of his soul.

Johnnie nodded, and an invisible strand of consciousness flew out, quietly floating in front of him.

If you didn’t pay close attention, you’d never notice it—the power of consciousness was even more mysterious than the soul.

Helios finally breathed a sigh of relief. He only had a few dozen Spiritual Stones left, and if it hadn’t worked this time, he’d be out of options.

Johnnie’s mind stirred. He guided his consciousness to merge into the Dark Golden Mechanical Golem.

Clack, clack...

A series of mechanical noises sounded, and the Dark Golden Golem’s eyes snapped open, glimmering with renewed vitality.

Johnnie took a moment to adjust and was taken aback.

With consciousness linked, this Dark Golden Golem felt just like a part of his own body—he could move it as easily as his own limbs, either letting it act on its own or controlling it directly.

The Dark Golden Golem was like his clone, but one with its own consciousness—a far more powerful version than any ordinary clone skill.

Johnnie’s thoughts flickered, and he opened the attribute panel for the Dark Golden Golem.

To his surprise, the attribute panel was identical to his own, except most options were grayed out, waiting to be unlocked.

[Attribute Synchronization: Pending activation. Can synchronize with your main body to improve base stats. Activation cost: 10,000 Spiritual Stones.]

[Sword Immortal: Class, pending activation. Costs 10,000 Spiritual Stones. Grants all Sword Immortal skills and techniques from your main body.]

[The Mage of the Five Elements: Class, pending activation. Costs 10,000 Spiritual Stones. Grants all Mage of the Five Elements skills and techniques from your main body.]

[Lucky Master: Special class, pending activation. Costs 1,000,000 Spiritual Stones. Grants Lucky Master class traits.]

...

Base attributes, classes, talents, and laws were all locked and required at least a thousand Spiritual Stones each to activate.

What truly shocked Johnnie was that even the Lucky Master class could be unlocked.

That was a one-of-a-kind hidden class, but the price was staggering—a cool million Spiritual Stones!

Still, Johnnie thought it was totally worth it.

He knew firsthand how powerful Lucky Master was—his current strength was largely thanks to that class.

Besides, this space had a massive Spiritual Stone mine. The reserves probably topped ten million—more than enough for his needs.

As long as he activated all the puppet clone’s attributes, and combined it with its indestructible nature, he was confident he could even take down a Divine!

"This hunk of iron actually came back to life." Benz said, coming over to tap on the Dark Golden Golem, curiosity all over his face.

The Dark Golden Golem was already covered in cracks, the result of previous battles with several mechanical Divines.

But that wasn’t a real problem—a few Spiritual Stones or a mechanical energy core could fix it right up.

Johnnie glanced at the nearby forest and asked silently, "Coco, Maiev, do you think you can handle that Immortal Wood Emperor?"

He could sense that the Immortal Wood Emperor was incredibly powerful. If he could subdue or defeat it, his strength would definitely soar.

Maiev’s voice answered, "Master, I can’t do it. The Immortal Wood Emperor is a God-Emperor powerhouse—I’m no match."

Coco chimed in, "It’s not impossible. If we merge with this space, Lord Skye and Lord Aureon could take him down."

"Good, as long as we can handle it." Johnnie felt relieved; he was determined to merge this space.

Besides, he had already learned that the Spatial Anchor imprisoning this space was right here in Mechanical City. As long as the Spatial Anchor was destroyed, Coco could merge this entire space into the Map of Heaven and Earth.

"By the way, what exactly is the God-Emperor realm?" Johnnie asked out of curiosity. He could sense that God-Emperor was even more powerful than Highgod.

The two of them fell silent. After a moment, Maiev finally spoke: "Master, above Highgod is the Godking Realm. Breaking through the Godking Realm leads to the God-Emperor Realm."

There was actually a Godking Realm as well?

Johnnie was surprised. If Skye and Aureon could handle a God-Emperor powerhouse, what kind of realm were they at?

He sensed that Coco and Maiev didn’t want to reveal too much, so he didn’t press any further.

"Master, what should we do next?" Red Carp asked from the side.

Johnnie snapped back to reality and said, "Seize the Spiritual Stone mine!"

He needed a huge amount of Spiritual Stones to activate the Dark Golden Golem’s attributes and professions.

"My lord, isn’t that a bit too dangerous? Those three Mechanical Race Divine powerhouses probably haven’t left." Selene sounded worried.

They had fled the Spiritual Stone mine because those three mechanical Divines had shown up.

The three mechanical Divines hadn’t given chase, which surely meant they were guarding the Spiritual Stone mine.

Johnnie thought for a moment before saying, "I’ve gotten stronger now, and I’ve mastered the Dark Golden Mechanical Golem. I should be able to handle a Divine powerhouse."

Those three mechanical Divines were formidable, but not invincible.

Now that he’d gained the spatial teleportation skill, Blink, he could easily stall one of them. As long as he triggered the Seven Sword Instant Kill effect, he could take one down.

Red Carp had refined the Dragon Pearl, and her strength had soared as well. At peak stage nine, she could team up with Benz to keep one Divine occupied.

With the Dark Golden Mechanical Golem’s indestructible body, it could stall another Divine powerhouse by itself.

As long as he triggered Seven Sword and killed one Divine, the remaining two would be much easier to handle.

Even if he couldn’t trigger it, he still had his trump card: the Skye Shield.

Before, without a teleportation skill, he couldn’t get close to a Divine. Now, with Blink, it would be easy to approach them.

Johnnie glanced at the vast forest ahead and spoke up: "Immortal Wood Emperor, could you return those Mechanical Golems to me?"

Those ten thousand death-and-resurrection Mechanical Golems were still trapped in the mountain forest.

Those Mechanical Golems packed quite a punch, and now that his mechanical law had improved, he could easily command them.
