Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone Chapter 471 - 343: Explosive Talent Growth, the Game-Changin

When Su Xinyan heard this, she didn’t comfort Fang Zhou as usual. Instead, she sighed along with him. "Yes, I’ve had my share of struggles with this too. Especially since you’re still in the Apprentice Stage, the only type of Heavenly and Earthly Treasure you can absorb is Nether Amber."

"When you reach the Black Iron Tier, to truly unlock your potential and enhance your aptitude, you will need to absorb a potion refined from two types of Undead Attribute Heavenly and Earthly Treasures: the Bone-Eroding Blood Spring and the Breath of Decay. I also went through imnse hardship back then and only managed to obtain the second raw material by a stroke of luck in the final stage, just before breaking through my bottleneck to advance to Bronze. Only then could I refine the required potion."

Su Xinyan continued, "In the Bronze and even Silver Periods, the variety of Heavenly and Earthly Treasures needed is even greater, and they are more difficult to find. Perhaps they might only be available occasionally in the Mythical World."

Realizing she might have discouraged him, Su Xinyan quickly offered so comfort. "But you don’t need to think too much about it. Let’s leave future problems for the future. Right now, you’ve just absorbed the Nether Amber and are in your peak condition, so let’s begin learning the Mana Conductor Specialty."

Fang Zhou nodded, his expression turning serious.

As for the other high-level Undead Attribute Heavenly and Earthly Treasures she ntioned, Fang Zhou didn’t actually feel much despair. After all, he still had the Skeleton Clone as his trump card, a secret that he couldn’t ntion to anyone. He just needed to carefully study how to achieve energy and material transfer between his main body and the Skeleton Clone. He believed that with the abundant resources of the Undead Realm, this problem would naturally solve itself when the ti ca. The Berserker Heroic Spirit Mark had already given him a hint about a possible direction for achieving this material transfer. Ultimately, it would likely all co down to the soul.

Fang Zhou suppressed these thoughts, focusing his attention on the Professional Specialty learning chip Su Xinyan had produced. As a product of the Longxia Federation’s most advanced technology, the current Specialty infusion technology still had many imperfections. For example, this expensive learning chip could only be used once. If the user failed to master the corresponding Professional Specialty after one infusion, it would beco very difficult for them to master it later on.

Fortunately, with Su Xinyan—a Golden Tier Great Undead Mage who was already proficient in the Mana Conductor Specialty—acting as his guardian, Fang Zhou’s chances of success were quite high.

Following the instructions, Fang Zhou inserted the chip into his personal terminal and authorized brainwave resonance. Guided by the tutorial that popped up, he sat cross-legged in the Portable Concentration ditation Array and once again entered a state of deep ditation. Acting as his guardian, Su Xinyan perford a series of operations and adjustnts from the outside to ensure the entire process went smoothly.

anwhile, Fang Zhou once again received a prompt from the attribute panel.

"Detectable enhancent resource found. Can be perfectly absorbed by consuming Soul Power. Begin consumption?"

Just as I expected, he thought. The attribute panel can also be a great help in learning a Professional Specialty.

Without hesitation, Fang Zhou decisively chose to begin consuming Soul Power, accelerating the absorption of the Mana Conductor Specialty from the chip. After the attribute panel consud 100 points of Soul Power, Fang Zhou entered a familiar state—a Burst of Inspiration. He felt his consciousness being pulled by a powerful force, entering another level of perception.

He could seemingly see the data and experiences of the Mana Conductor Specialty embedded within the chip with perfect clarity. This information was rapidly absorbed, broken down, digested, and ultimately made his own. The feeling was like being omniscient and omnipotent; wherever his thoughts reached, all mysteries were laid bare in his mind. He felt as if he could see the very trajectory of energy flowing within his body and could even foresee how to apply this knowledge in actual combat.

For a standard Professional Specialty infusion, the process to enhance Spiritual Power and Mana recovery generally takes over an hour. This is a significant test of the user’s Spiritual Power and soul strength. However, with the help of the attribute panel, Fang Zhou absorbed all the knowledge of the Mana Conductor Specialty from the chip in just ten minutes.

Deep in his ditation, Fang Zhou heard the attribute panel’s prompt.

"Resource absorption complete. Professional Specialty slot activated. Successfully acquired [Mana Conductor] Specialty."

Fang Zhou looked at his attribute panel, where the new Professional Specialty slot displayed:

[Mana Conductor]: A general specialty for Magic Professionals that significantly enhances Spiritual Power and Mana recovery rates.

Fang Zhou’s heart leaped with surprised delight. None of the skills or equipnt he had encountered so far had ever used the word "significantly."

I wonder just how much ’significantly’ is?

He looked up at Instructor Su Xinyan, who wore an expression of concern.

"How did it go, Fang Zhou?" she asked anxiously. "Did you successfully master the Mana Conductor Specialty?"

Fang Zhou nodded, a relaxed smile spreading across his face. "I’m glad to say I succeeded. I’ve successfully learned the Mana Conductor Specialty, and my Spiritual Power recovery rate has increased significantly."

Hearing this, Su Xinyan’s expression also relaxed, and she smiled. "That’s good, that’s very good. I’ve never operated this Professional Specialty infusion technology from the Longxia Federation’s military before. To be honest, I wasn’t entirely confident. But it seems the technology is quite mature. How do you feel now?"

Fang Zhou didn’t answer imdiately. Instead, he silently cast a Skeleton Flying Spear and then dissipated it, observing the recovery rate of his Spiritual Power. A few minutes later, he looked up at Su Xinyan, his face filled with pleasant surprise. "Instructor Xinyan, with the Mana Conductor Specialty, my Spiritual Power recovery rate has increased by at least fifty percent. It’s incredible. This level of increase is astonishing."

Upon hearing Fang Zhou’s self-assessnt, Su Xinyan nodded, completely relieved. "It seems you have indeed thoroughly mastered the Mana Conductor Specialty," she said. "Based on my experience, it does increase a Magic Professional’s Spiritual Power recovery rate by about fifty percent. And the most critical part is that its increase to Spiritual Power and Mana recovery rates is effective across all tiers. It’s giving you a fifty percent boost in the Apprentice Stage, and when you reach Gold, or even high tiers like Glory Champion, the Mana Conductor Specialty will still increase your Mana recovery rate by fifty percent. It’s only when you achieve the Legendary Crown Stage, and the very essence of your life undergoes a massive transformation, that these Professional Specialties will lose their effect. At that point, you’ll need to further enhance them into Legendary Professional Specializations."

Fang Zhou nodded, not dwelling on the issue. The Legendary Crown Stage is far too distant for a re apprentice like , and there’s no point in thinking about such ethereal matters now. The most important thing is to consolidate my current achievents.

Over the next few days, under Su Xinyan’s guidance, Fang Zhou used the comprehensive equipnt of the Undead Mage research group to conduct a thorough examination of all the changes in his abilities. The results were naturally delightful. A series of minor buffs, such as his affinity for Undead Attribute energy, ditation Cultivation speed, Spiritual Power recovery rate, and the magnitude of his skill effects, all added up. Combined, they increased Fang Zhou’s individual combat power by at least fifty percent compared to before. This was because he had previously laid an incredibly solid foundation. Thus, after obtaining a crucial Heavenly and Earthly Treasure like Nether Amber, his accumulated potential erupted all at once, launching his combat effectiveness to new heights and putting him far ahead of the curve.

He tested himself repeatedly in the lab, finding that his recovery speed after casting skills was much faster than before. This greatly boosted his confidence. Imnsely satisfied, Fang Zhou naturally planned to repay Instructor Su Xinyan for her wholehearted assistance.
