Chapter 521: Chapter 221 Unexpected Joy
Shock Dream!
Ultimately, Xu Jin defined the newly evolved Divine Soul Star Technique as Shock Dream.
There was a reason for such a na.
The first two evolutionary attempts had failed, either because Shock and Fear destroyed the dreamscape of Warm Dream, or the ntal illusion of Intent Illusion.
However, what Xu Jin hadn’t expected was that by focusing on Breaking Evil as the core, and combining Warm Dream, Intent Illusion, and Shock and Fear for evolution, he would not only succeed, but also achieve surprisingly great power.
Xu Jin, too, couldn’t understand it at first.
But after the successful evolution of the Star Lamp and the feedback it provided, Xu Jin instantly realized the truth.
There’s no need to say much about Breaking Evil; it’s the primary thod for offense and incorporating Divine Soul attacks. In the evolution of the Star Lamp, Warm Dream was ranked second, aning the target was first pulled into the dream world of Warm Dream, followed by Intent Illusion, where the Intent Illusion Star Pattern ford illusions within the dream, and finally ca Shock and Fear.
This led to Shock and Fear being ford within the illusion of the dream – all seed real, yet illusory.
Shock and Fear couldn’t destroy Warm Dream.
On the contrary, it resulted in the formidable power of this Divine Soul Star Technique.
Xu Jin could be certain that the Shock Dream he had evolved that day was definitely unique.
No other; out of the Warm Dream Star Patterns, according to the State Preceptor, only six people had learned it.
While nearly everyone knew Breaking Evil, not everyone was familiar with Shock and Fear or Intent Illusion.
More importantly, the difficulty of deducing Divine Soul Star Techniques is more than ten tis that of Star Power Star Skills.
The reason is simple, the Star Power Cultivation Level increases quickly. An expert at the Fourth Tier of Star Condensing Realm, Ninth Layer Peak, has ten Star Cores, each with ten Star Pattern slots.
Taking into account the Lower Star Palace, each person has at least twenty chances to attempt Star Pattern combinations.
Even if a few are wasted, the impact is not too great. Star Power can be summoned as needed.
However, Divine Soul Cultivation is different. Just reaching the Fourth Tier of the Star Condensing Realm is already one in a hundred, and no one dares to experint recklessly.
There are those who can forge anew their Star Power Cultivation after failure, but no one dares to do the sa with their Divine Soul Cultivation.
Therefore, Xu Jin concluded that the Shock Dream Star Technique he had evolved was definitely a unique Divine Soul Star Technique.
In the test on the God-Killing Battlefield earlier, it directly controlled an Alien Race of the Fourth Tier, Star Condensing Third Layer, for three seconds!
Three seconds!
Enough ti for Xu Jin to slay this fourth-tier, third-layer Alien Race ten tis over.
Of course, this also had to do with the relatively low Divine Soul Cultivation of the fourth-tier Aliens evolved on the God-Killing Battlefield, barely at the level of Star Casting.
But even if he encountered soone with stronger Divine Soul Cultivation, or even soone whose Divine Soul Cultivation was close to Xu Jin’s, he estimated that this set of Combined Star Skills would still be effective.
As for the duration of control, that would need to be explored slowly.
Since the actual combat effect was so strong, Xu Jin started the engraving process.
He directly engraved this set of Star Patterns on the second Divine Soul Star of the Upper Star Palace.
The first engraved was the Clearing Soul Star Pattern, followed by Breaking Evil, Warm Dream, Intent Illusion, and finally, Shock and Fear.
These Star Patterns, Xu Jin was now extrely familiar with, so fluent that in less than half an hour, all were fully engraved.
From now on, whenever Xu Jin fully activates this second Divine Soul Star, he’ll be able to Instantaneously launch the Combined Star Skill, Shock Dream!
This also highlights the value of engraving a complete set of Star Skills on a single Star Core.
It allows for instantaneous activation and even greater power.
In the future, if no other Star Patterns are found that could enhance the power of Shock Dream, then he would only use these few Star Patterns.
It would be better to fill the empty Star Pattern slots with purely passive patterns, or the Clearing Soul Star Pattern, than to engrave other patterns.
At the sa ti, Xu Jin had also decided on his future combat strategy.
The Combined Star Skill, Shock Dream, for a certain period, should be Xu Jin’s trump card, so he wouldn’t use it casually.
Against ordinary enemies, Xu Jin would use combinations of Breaking Evil with Warm Dream or Breaking Evil with Shock and Fear. Only against formidable opponents would he use Shock Dream.
After engraving the five Star Patterns onto the second Divine Soul Star Core of the Upper Star Palace, he thought for a mont, then decided to also engrave Clearing Soul Star Patterns on the first Star Pattern slot of the third and fourth Divine Soul Stars.
According to Qi, only by engraving two or more Clearing Soul Star Patterns, could one genuinely sense the slow strengthening effect on the Divine Soul Power.
If the effect was significant, Xu Jin wouldn’t mind engraving several more Clearing Soul Star Patterns.
Up till now, there were no super powerful Divine Soul Star Techniques that combined eight, nine, or even ten Star Patterns.
At least as far as Qi had ntioned, the Lingji Star Hall did not have any.
*****
At 7 p.m. sharp, Xu Jin notified Chief Peng before proceeding to the location agreed upon with Vice Hall Master Ling Mao, but Ling Mao was nowhere to be seen.
Just as Xu Jin was about to use Starlight Transmission to contact Ling Mao, Ling Mao suddenly waved to him from a carriage nearby, inviting Xu Jin to co aboard.
Xu Jin had seen plenty of carriages, but this was his first ti actually riding in one.
Additionally, in Xu Jin’s experience, carriages were rather aristocratic and rather slow.
Ling Mao’s carriage was a single-horse carriage, but was pulled by a second-tier Star Horse, and it was fast.
Running, it was also incredibly stable.
Seeing Xu Jin’s curious expression, Ling Mao explained with a smile, “Although it’s not as fast as traveling by oneself, it has the advantage of privacy. The walls of the carriage are made of materials and arrays that prevent prying, and below the chassis, there’s a cushioning array usually used on Starships.
“Lord Xu, if you need, I could also assist in acquiring one for you.”
“No need, no need, just curious is all, it’s really quite steady.”
After sitting for a while, Xu Jin had a lot to think about. In terms of stability, it was even steadier than cars from his previous life.
