"This pot of soup is a super invincible limited edition!"
"To put it exaggeratedly, aside from , there’s probably no one else who could make it."
Jas tilted his head back slightly, closed his eyes, and carefully inhaled the rising steam from the soup through his nose before speaking unhurriedly.
"There are two main special ingredients in this pot of soup. First is World Origin Essence, which I spent quite a bit of effort secretly intercepting from the Origin of Greatflow World!"
"Second is spirit vein essence. It’s right beneath the ground here, and even I only dared to draw out the tiniest strand."
Daniel listened very seriously.
He tried sending so of the soup into his mouth.
"This soup tastes really good. Delicious."
[Ding! attribute points 2,000!]
[Ding! attribute points 2,000!]
[...]
System notifications kept ringing beside Daniel’s ear, and he drank with even more enthusiasm.
Besides, the soup really was extrely delicious!
Mosi also took a stream of soup and drank it down.
"Not bad!"
Mosi coldly spat out two words.
Jas kept his eyes closed, a satisfied smile hanging on his face as he continued.
"I also added eight other rare treasure ingredients. This is the miraculous dicinal soup I personally concocted. With just one sip, you will understand what the most delicious food in the world truly is!"
He opened his eyes and smiled as he looked toward the soup pot.
However...
The pot was already empty!
Uh...
!?
Jas’ smile froze on his face.
His eyes widened, and the corners of his eyes and mouth twitched violently.
A heaven-shaking aura suddenly erupted from his body!
No—!
Wails of agony rang out from Westmoor Manor.
The nearby powerhouses all turned their heads, completely confused.
There were only the top three seats inside Westmoor Manor. Judging from that sound, could it be...
"Did they start fighting?"
...
[Ding! You have obtained Origin Essence 100 points!]
[Ding! You have obtained ntal State 100 points!]
Hearing the sound beside his ear, Daniel directly sold them off.
[Ding! You have sold Origin Essence ×100 points to Doom Guild for 1 copper coin, triggering Millionfold Boost!]
[The item sold is a special energy-type item. Please choose quality boost / quantity boost!]
"Quantity boost!"
[Congratulations! You have obtained 1 gold coin! You have obtained [Origin Essence] ×10,000,000 points!]
...
[Ding! You have sold ntal State ×100 points to Doom Guild for 1 copper coin, triggering Millionfold Boost!]
[...]
[Congratulations! You have obtained ntal State 10,000,000 points!]
After drinking the soup and passing it through Millionfold Boost, Daniel’s gains had reached an astonishing level.
"This soup is incredible! If I could drink it every day..."
Daniel glanced at Mosi again.
That fellow looked cold and aloof, but in reality, he was not honest either. When they had been drinking the soup just now, he had not drunk any less.
At this mont, Jas felt uncomfortable all over.
He had painstakingly gathered the ingredients and spent a trendous amount of effort simring a pot of soup, yet he had not gotten a single sip himself.
He looked as though he had been struck by both a critical hit and a weakness curse at the sa ti. Listless and dispirited, he stared at Daniel and Mosi with resentful eyes.
"You two idiots... I regret this."
He gnashed his teeth.
Just then, Mosi looked at Jas and said coldly, "Then let’s fight."
"Aren’t you being far too shaless?"
Jas imdiately shouted.
"You drank the soup I made, and now you want to use as your sparring partner?"
"No matter how shaless soone is, they can’t order people around like you do!"
Daniel smiled as he watched the two of them bicker.
Jas and Mosi were clearly old acquaintances.
One was cold as ice, while the other looked gentle on the surface but was full of theatrics inside.
"Then shut up."
Mosi’s words were perfectly justified, concise, and direct.
"Co on, co on! Today, I’m going to beat every drop of soup you drank back out of you, then make you drink it again yourself!"
This ti, Jas was truly heartbroken.
With a wave of his hand, another puppet flew out and transford into his appearance!
"This guy’s puppets really are interesting!"
Daniel’s eyes lit up.
"Where exactly is his real body hidden? I actually can’t find it at all."
Jas was far too cautious.
No, rather, he was far too steady.
He was clearly absurdly powerful, yet he acted as cowardly as a rookie who had just walked out of Starter Village.
At so point, a blade had appeared in Mosi’s hand.
The blade was long and slender, and its scabbard was pitch-black.
A dark hand rested on the dark hilt.
He held the blade, but did not draw it.
He was gathering montum!
The longer ti passed, the heavier the dangerous aura on the blade beca. The blade itself let out a low buzzing sound.
"A charged attack?"
Daniel rembered that there was such a school of thought on Earth, one that emphasized settling victory and defeat with a single slash.
Mosi’s version was a little different. He charged up first, and the longer he charged, the more terrifying the slash would be once unleashed.
Looking back at Jas, his second puppet lazily waved its hand, and a massive number of light shields instantly appeared around him.
Layer upon layer, densely packed together.
There had to be... several million layers!
"That many... shields?"
The corner of Daniel’s mouth twitched.
Several million layers of shields. Just how afraid of death was this man?
Jas sensed his gaze and explained in all seriousness.
"This world is too dangerous. One must be careful in all things..."
"Don’t be fooled by the fact that this secret art only has a few million shields on the surface."
Jas grew smug, as if he were showing off.
"In truth, I still have tens of millions hidden away."
"But whether or not they can block Mosi is still hard to say."
Then he frowned again and pretended to ponder.
"Looks like I need to modify it further and increase the external protective shields to over ten million. Only then will I have a little sense of security."
Daniel suddenly did not feel like speaking anymore.
"Did you develop this secret art yourself?"
he asked.
"Develop it myself? Are you joking?"
"I only improve things. I never create from scratch. Creating things myself is far too tiring."
Jas snorted and looked at Mosi.
"Only this idiot would tinker around with secret arts on his own. That charged slash of his is sothing he blindly ssed around and created himself. It’s only a supre-grade secret art. His aptitude is truly ordinary!"
Daniel fell silent.
Holy Condensation, Endless Divine Power, Immortal Icon, Void Annihilation...
Without the ten-thousandfold amplification system, all of those secret arts would only be supre-grade.
And they had all been created by mighty beings at the Oracle-grade level.
To call a fellow who could create a supre-grade secret art on his own and was clearly about to beco a sage "ordinary in aptitude"?
"Jas."
Daniel sighed.
"I think I roughly understand why you’re so afraid of death."
"Hm?"
Jas looked utterly confused.
"With how much you show off, you must get struck by lightning pretty often, right?"
"It truly hasn’t been easy for you to survive until now."
Jas: "..."
"Are you even being polite?"
"But I do have one question... Why is it that supre-grade secret arts are spread everywhere, but Divine-grade secret arts are rarely seen?"
Daniel asked.
Jas smiled and said, "Divine-grade secret arts contain traces of law power. They can only be comprehended by oneself and cannot be directly taught."
"Supre-grade secret arts don’t have that restriction, so Divine-grade secret arts are especially rare. For quasi-sages like us, if we can master a Divine-grade secret art on our own before breaking through to sage, then once we advance to sage, we can directly rush to the peak of Divine-grade."
He glanced at Mosi.
"Mosi wants to walk that path."
"I’m different. I prefer stepping on the shoulders of those who ca before and climbing upward. Haha."
"So that’s how it is."
Daniel suddenly understood.
No wonder most of the secret arts he had obtained were supre-grade, and only barely reached Divine-grade after Millionfold Boost.
So Divine-grade secret arts were actually that precious.
Moreover, as long as one studied and mastered a Divine-grade secret art by oneself, after breaking through, one could imdiately stand at the highest point of Divine-grade.
No wonder even the sages of the God Realm used only supre-grade secret arts rather than Divine-grade divine arts.
After all, the rules of the laws were there!
Right now, in the entirety of Aetheria, he was the only one standing on the stage of this starry sky.
As for the basic knowledge of the Endless Starsea, he barely understood anything at all.
In his previous lives, he had only been a small legendary-grade nobody. How could he have had the chance to co into contact with such things?
Only after hearing Jas explain it did he finally understand.
"He’s about ready."
Jas suddenly said.
"The terrifying thing about Mosi’s move isn’t just the blade. It’s Mosi himself."
Daniel looked toward Mosi.
He saw Mosi’s body wildly absorbing the energy accumulated within the scabbard. His entire body suddenly swelled to more than twice its original size!
