I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second

Chapter 576: Chapter 576: The Pride That Must Be Defended—So What If Moths Fly Into the Flame?

Before Lin Yi could speak, Zacks had already taken the lead, expressing what Lin Yi had in mind.

”Why I’m appearing here, you have to ask yourself. You, young man, really like to act recklessly. Sometimes, if you make some concessions, wouldn’t you be able to live safely?”

”Isn’t there an old saying in Xia that says those who recognize the times are the outstanding ones, and a true warrior can yield and stand firm? Is it worth paying such a price for a promise?”

Lin Yi couldn’t understand why, after his death, his consciousness would meet Zacks.

Thinking that everything that needed to be resolved had already been resolved, Lin Yi simply sat down.

”There’s no other way; I am just like this.”

”Things that I promise to do, I must accomplish. The Great Saint gave me trust and helped me through a difficult time. How could I do something to betray him while he’s asleep?”

”As for my family and friends on Blue Star, this is all I can do.”

Zacks wasn’t in a hurry to reply.

He walked slowly to Lin Yi, lowered himself gently, and sat opposite Lin Yi.

”The pain of sacrificing all skills and Power of Law is not something an ordinary person can endure. Young man, you are really something. As for why you are seeing me, it is because during your battle with that Calamity, you accidentally used Divine Power.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi nodded.

This was something unavoidable.

Even though Calamity was just a mere worker for the big shots of the upper plane, its strength was far beyond what Lin Yi could compare. Without risking everything, there really was no chance of victory.

”So, are you here to laugh at me? Laugh at me for not taking your advice and choosing to join your Upper-Rank Divine Realm?”

”To be honest, I somewhat regret it, but not much.”

The handsome face showed a faint smile.

The unruly spirit between his brows highlighted Lin Yi’s arrogance.

Having said this much, it was truly surprising that Zacks had no intention of being angry.

”You, young man, besides having great skills, your skill with words isn’t bad either.”

Zacks said with a smile.

His gaze started to become somewhat complex.

Upper-Rank Gods are the rulers of All Heavens and the Myriads of Worlds.

Among countless planes, there are innumerable outstanding geniuses.

Those who possess such terrifying powers really have no need to go through all this trouble just to laugh at Lin Yi.

”Alright, I’ll help you this time. If such an interesting young man like you were gone, this world would become a lot more boring.”

As Zacks finished his sentence, he gently raised his right hand. A thought crossed his mind, and a stream of light emerged and coiled around his fingertip.

The series of actions were executed seamlessly, and the stream of light shot into Lin Yi’s forehead without him being able to react, disappearing entirely.

This scene made Lin Yi display an expression of disbelief. When he realized what had happened, not only had the stream of light completely absorbed into his head,

but even the figure of Zacks, who was sitting in front of him just a moment ago, had disappeared without a trace.

As Lin Yi was puzzled, Zacks’s voice echoed within his conscious space.

”Young man, this method can save your life and restore your sacrificed skills. This method is immensely powerful and wonderfully mysterious. How much you can learn from it depends on your capability and understanding!”

”This cultivation technique is called Eight-Nine Mystical Skill, or Ninth Transformation Primordial Skill.”

”Once cultivated to great success, the physical body becomes immortal, and everything changes. The art lies within your mind.”

After a brief introduction, Zacks began reciting the cultivation mantras of the [Eight-Nine Mystical Skill]:

”In the Six Realms and Myriad Stars, everything is encompassed within the Tao.”

”Yang flourishes to nine, Yin wanes to eight. When eight and nine converge, that is the pinnacle!”

.....

”Cultivate the mystery of Eight-Nine, and roam freely between heaven and earth.”

Initially, Lin Yi did not intend to follow Zacks’s advice to cultivate the Eight-Nine Mystical Skill.

Upon further thought, if he could live, wouldn’t that mean Blue Star could be saved?

Thus, Lin Yi activated the source energy within him, following the Laws described by Zacks, and began to operate.

Blue Star, Polar Region.

Under the gaze of the powerful ones, Lin Yi stood motionless, standing there as the blood within him gushed out.
