The world descends on Sky Island: God-level talents are drawn at the beginning.

Lord Linghui said solemnly, "Han Xing, before you go into seclusion, there is something I need to remind you of."

“During your seclusion, those gods from the Western Regions used special methods to spy on the main hall where we were, and they have most likely already discovered us.”

"We speculate that if these Western Region deities make their next move, they might try to launch a strong attack."

When Lord Linghui finished speaking, Han Xing frowned slightly.

"Has it been discovered so quickly?"

He pondered for a moment, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

Everyone in the hall remained silent and did not disturb him.

After a moment, Han Xing looked at Qinghe and Yaolian beside him and asked, "After the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm closes, can they still force it open before the opening time?"

The two twin lotus sisters exchanged a glance.

Qinghe nodded first and said, "Yes, as long as the strength of the power exceeds the limit that the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm can withstand, the secret realm will be forcibly torn open."

"Back then... we were caught in the crossfire of a battle between some powerful figures, which caused my sister and I to be born prematurely, damaging our innate foundations..."

She paused, then added, "Although the power level of these gods in the Western Regions is difficult to reach the level of the strongmen in that great battle back then..."

"But they've been developing the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm for so many years, they must have some special methods..."

"I'm afraid it won't be long before these Western Region God Lords launch a full-scale attack."

After she finished speaking, the atmosphere in the hall became even more solemn.

Han Xing pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded and said, "Have they already noticed that we're hiding in the temple?"

"Based on our projections... how much longer do you think we can hold out?"

After thinking for a moment, Qinghe replied, "Given the personalities of these Western Region God Lords, now that they've confirmed we're in the temple, they'll probably launch a strong attack very soon."

"However, the restrictions of the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm are quite strong, and in addition, the place where we are hiding is this mysterious hall."

"Even if they attack with all their might, they won't be able to get in here for at least a year or two."

Hearing this, Han Xing's worry disappeared, and he said in a deep voice, "A year or two? That should be enough."

"Next, we will continue our seclusion and cultivation in this temple, and then wait for me to emerge from seclusion."

Everyone nodded in agreement, a determined look flashing in their eyes.

"Okay, Brother Xing, we'll wait for you to come out of seclusion!"

Meanwhile, after learning about the situation outside, the Korean stars immediately went into seclusion again.

He murmured to himself, "Although, according to Qinghe, it would take those Western Region gods more than a year to enter this temple."

"But we can't really calculate based on this time. These guys might launch an attack ahead of schedule, or even pay a price to launch a strong offensive."

"Therefore, this timeframe needs to be calculated in six-month increments."

After analyzing the situation, he whispered, "It seems that before these guys breach the temple, the other five divine skills can also be upgraded to the mid-level god-lord level."

Thinking of this, Han Xing couldn't wait to open the skill panel.

But before that, we need to take a look at the five skills that have just been upgraded.

Let's see how powerful one becomes after reaching the intermediate-level God Lord realm.

So, Han Xing opened the attributes one by one, and skill panels appeared in front of him.

【Eternal Shadow: The End of the Universe】

[Skill Rank: Mid-Tier God-Lord Level Combat Skill]

[Skill Effect: Each successful kill at the furthest distance permanently increases projectile speed by 0.05% and agility by 500 points. This effect can be active up to 2000 times within 24 hours.]

After all 2000 upgrades have taken effect, the 'End of the Universe' effect will be unlocked.

【End of the Universe: Your attack will transcend the constraints of space and time】

Ignore distance: Your ranged attacks have no projectile time and hit the target instantly upon firing.

Universe Penetration: Your attacks can penetrate dimensional barriers, dealing full damage to enemies in other dimensions or hidden spaces.

Enhanced Bonus: Attack power bonus formula improved. A 100% attack power bonus is now granted when both sides are 1 light-years apart. Maximum bonus increased to 10000% (requires a 100 light-year distance).

Finale Effect: When attack power bonus reaches its maximum, this attack will be accompanied by the "Universal End" effect, with a 1% to 50% chance to inflict instant death on the enemy (the greater the difference in strength, the lower the probability of instant death)

[Cooldown: The Universal Salute effect requires active activation, lasts 60 seconds, and has a cooldown of 240 hours.]

...

...

【Instant Shadow Assassination - Infernal Shadow Prison】

[Skill Rank: Mid-Tier God Lord Level]

[Skill Effect: Activates the Shadow Prison, replacing the real world.]

1. Increases own attack power by 3000% and applies 3 stacks of "Annihilation" effect to all enemies within the Shadow Domain (each stack increases the final damage received by 50%, and this effect can be applied to Eternal-level creatures).

2. Shadow Domain Domination: Within the Shadow Domain, you can perform short-distance shadow traversal an unlimited number of times and are immune to all spatial blocking effects.

3. Utter Desolation: Creates 1000 clones imbued with the power of annihilation, simultaneously locking onto all enemies and immobilizing them in an absolute frozen state (ignoring level, forced control for 1.5 seconds). Then, all clones launch a finishing blow, dealing true damage equal to (number of clones * 500%).

The shadow field lasts for 15 seconds, or until all enemies are defeated.

【Cooling time: 36 hours.】

...

...

【Divine Bow Sharp Metal - Source-Breaking Arrow】

[Skill Rank: Mid-Tier God Lord Level]

[Skill Effect: Draw the bowstring and gather the essence of Geng metal and the power to break through boundaries.]

Base damage: Deals absolute armor penetration damage (Attack Power * 1246%) to the enemy (this damage cannot be reduced in any way).

Power Boost: For every second of charging, an additional 200% damage bonus is added, and the target's armor and magic resistance are permanently stripped by 1% (up to 20%).

Boundary-Piercing Arrow: After charging for 10 seconds, the arrow will transform into a Source-Piercing Arrow, ignoring any form of invincibility, immunity, or rebirth effects, and dealing absolute armor-piercing damage (Agility * 3000%) to the enemy.

It will inflict a "root damage" status (all skill effects are halved, and health and energy recovery efficiency is reduced to 0), lasting until the end of the battle.

This arrow has a chance to permanently damage the target's equipment or talents after it is fired.

【Cooling time: 24 hours.】

...

...

Arrow of the Fallen God - Burning the Universe

[Skill Rank: Mid-Tier God Lord Level]

【Skill Effect: Burns a massive amount of fire attribute primordial laws, condensing into an arrow powerful enough to destroy the world. 1. Absolute Accuracy: This arrow is guaranteed to hit, and ignores the interference of time, space, and causality.】

2、终末伤害：对神王级及以下的敌人，造成（炎属性本源之力消耗量*100 +攻击力*10000%）的混合伤害（70%火焰伤害，30%真实伤害）。

3. Primal Burn: Reduces the maximum health of hit enemies by 40% and all attributes by 30% for 10 days. This effect cannot be dispelled or restored by normal means.

4. Final Revelation: If this arrow successfully kills its target, its explosion will create a continuously expanding "final black hole," devouring all matter and energy within its range, and converting 10% of it into fire-attribute primal power to be fed back to you.

[Note: The base cost is 1000 million Fire Attribute Source Power, and the damage coefficient is 10000%.]

For every additional 500 million units of Origin Power consumed, the damage coefficient increases by 500%, and the absorption range and conversion efficiency of the Final Black Hole increase.

The skill cooldown time is fixed at 48 hours.

...

...

[Broken Moon·Eternal Tribulation Twins]

[Skill Level: Mid-Tier God Lord Level]

【Skill Effect: Invokes the Yin Origin and the Law of Annihilation, summoning two moons representing "Seal" and "Stillness".

1. Eternal Moon Seal (First Round): Forcefully drags the target into the stillness of the moon, an absolute state that lasts for 1 to 10 seconds (forces the effect on creatures of the same level for at least 1 second, and the subsequent time depends on the difference in strength between the two sides).

During the sealing period, all of the target's resistances are reduced by 80%, and its connection with external energy is completely severed.

2. Eternal Moon (Second Round): When the first round of the Moon Seal ends, the second round of the Moon will undergo a twin annihilation with it.

3. Eternal Twins: When the two moons are annihilated, they will deal absolute true damage equal to (Attack Power * 15000%) to the target. This damage is affected by the resistance reduction effect during the sealing period.

Moonlit Resonance: If this skill fails to kill the target, it will apply a "Twin Moon Mark," increasing the target's damage taken from all sources by 100% for the next 24 hours and preventing them from receiving any healing.

【Cooling time: 48 hours.】

...

...

After seeing the enhanced attributes of the five skills, Han Xing's eyes once again showed amazement.

"Good heavens... As expected, these skills undergo unimaginable qualitative changes after being upgraded to the God Lord level!"

"Not only has the skill's destructive power been greatly increased, but even the name has been changed."

He looked at the series of skill descriptions, a sharp glint in his eyes.

"The first [Eternal Shadow - End of the Universe]... can ignore distance and strike across dimensions, with a hundredfold attack bonus."

"There's even an instant kill condition... This completely transcends the scope of conventional attacks; it's practically a causal-based ultimate kill."

His gaze fell on the second skill: "【Instant Shadow Kill - Infinite Shadow Prison】has also undergone a huge change."

"From the original domain skill, to now directly bringing an inescapable shadow prison into the mortal world!"

"Following this are forced damage amplification, absolute control, and dozens of times the true damage..."

"If this wave continues, even a high-level god lord would definitely not be able to withstand it!"

The Korean star took a deep breath, becoming more and more excited as he thought about it.

"Then came the [Divine Bow Sharp Metal] and [Arrow of Fallen God], both of which underwent earth-shattering improvements."

"The former possesses absolute armor penetration, multiplied power, ability to strip away resistance, and even the ability to permanently damage equipment..."

"This is the ultimate single-target piercing arrow, designed specifically to destroy those seemingly indestructible entities."

"That is, the nemesis of gods like Tu Gang!"

"The [Arrow of Fallen Gods] that follows also possesses the abilities of burning one's essence, absolute accuracy, and forced reduction of attributes."

"It can even absorb material energy later on to increase my fire attribute origin, that's awesome!"

Finally, his gaze settled on the skill [Shattered Moon - Eternal Twins].

This is also a skill that Korean stars pay the most attention to.

"As expected... this strong control skill that has been with me the longest has also undergone an unprecedented transformation."

"Using this skill will forcibly seal the enemy for at least one second!"

You can imagine what this concept is.

Combined with his [Time Stop], the enemy had absolutely no chance to fight back and was completely immobilized!
In addition, there's the true damage unleashed after the Twin Moons Resonance, as well as effects like vulnerability and healing reduction...

It's practically an all-around skill!
After a quick glance, Han Xing let out a long sigh of relief, suppressing the excitement in his heart.

Any one of these five skills, if upgraded to the intermediate-level God Lord level, would be enough to give an ordinary God Lord the ability to challenge opponents of higher levels.

Now that they are all gathered in one person, the power they can unleash is something even the Korean star himself finds hard to estimate.

"very good……"

A light rekindled in his eyes. "With these, I'm finally more confident in dealing with the situation ahead."

"So, next up is the second wave of upgrades!"

He continued to open the skill bar and found five major skills: [Heavenly Flowing Light Step], [Nine Yuan Soul Extinction Blade], [Tidal Arrow Technique], [Primordial Holy Body], and [Immortal Body].

Then I clicked the "+" sign next to it.

[Would you like to consume 9000 billion units of physical body essence to upgrade "Immortal Body" and "Primordial Holy Body (consuming 6000 billion units)" to the mid-tier God Lord level?]

[Consume 3000 billion units of Light-elemental power to upgrade "Celestial Flowing Light Step" to the mid-tier God Lord level?]

【whether……】

...

The Korean star took a deep breath and clicked "Confirm" without hesitation!
In an instant, an even more turbulent torrent of primordial energy surged into his body!
This time, the core of the upgrade is his physical body and his very essence!
"Om-!"

His body seemed to have transformed into the center of a terrifying vortex, with massive amounts of physical primal power being poured into it.

The primordial power of the [Immortal Body] and the [Primordial Holy Body] fused together, like two stars being ignited within his body!
"Snap! Snap!!!"

A faint, teeth-grinding sound emanated from his body.

That's the entire skeleton, blood vessels, and even every tiny cell being forcibly shattered.

Then it was reassembled in an even more perfect and powerful way!
On his skin, dark golden divine patterns and chaotic energy intertwined and emerged, as if he were wearing a suit of armor woven from the ultimate principles of heaven and earth.

At the same time, the light-based origin of the [Heavenly Flowing Light Step] transformed into countless ultimate light traces, imprinting themselves into his legs and the nerves that perceive space.

The spiritual essence of the Nine-Element Soul-Destroying Blade is like nine invisible blades, tempering his soul and will.

The water element of the [Tidal Arrow Technique] draws upon the vast power of the tides, washing over his meridians and making them more resilient, able to withstand even more violent power output.

Five distinct powers, two of which are supreme physiques focused on the very foundation of the physical body, undergoing the deepest transformation and sublimation!
The pain it brings far exceeds that of the first wave; it is an extreme experience of being torn apart and reshaped from the very bottom of one's life!
"Boom... boom boom..."

Han Xing's body trembled violently, and his breathing, which had just calmed down, became as unstable as a volcano about to erupt.
