The first ability excluded by Wen Yu was the Soul Harvest ability.
This was because its effects conflicted somewhat with the dark divine light.
From a purely skill effect perspective, the destructive power of the Soul Harvest skill was much stronger than that of the dark divine light. However, one point must be mentioned: Wen Yu's physical condition at present.
When in the Heavenly Palace, Wen Yu's physical condition was comparatively weak. However, this is relative; at Earth’s current level, Wen Yu could simulate a dark ripple using dark power, which should be roughly comparable to the effect of Soul Harvest—after all, it could all wipe out a group instantly, and Wen Yu believed the method was not important.
The next ability excluded by Wen Yu was the Soul Creation Technique.
There was a simple reason for this: Wen Yu was uncertain how much this ability could enhance him. It could be very strong, to the point of being able to “create gods”! Or it could be completely useless, turning into a mere “lifestyle skill” for modifying items.
There were too many unknown factors involved.
As for the photosynthetic spirit pattern and the Shard of the Heart of the World, Wen Yu thought for a long time but ultimately chose the Shard of the Heart of the World.
The two had a common point—they both required “accumulation” of abilities. The photosynthetic spirit pattern needed sunlight to accumulate stellar energy, while the Shard of the Heart of the World, or rather, the World Avenger, required killing demonic creatures. Both were abilities that needed to be accrued, which meant the earlier one learned them, the stronger they became later.
The reason Wen Yu chose to merge with the Shard of the Heart of the World was not just to accumulate the World Avenger Mark; he also hoped to quickly strengthen the racial talent of the divine beast species.
At present, Wen Yu believed he would not encounter too great a danger. Coupled with the defensive capabilities of the Heaven-Covering Robe, it was sufficient to ensure his safety at Earth’s current level. Therefore, compared to the life-saving nature of the photosynthetic spirit pattern, the Shard of the Heart of the World was indeed a better choice.
...
Taking the Shard of the Heart of the World out of the Spatial Ring, which resembled a clod of dirt, Wen Yu could perceive the immense power contained within it.
Mental waves slowly transmitted into the Shard of the Heart of the World, and then, Wen Yu sensed a strange restlessness within his body.
At first, the feeling was not intense, but as the mental waves connected more closely with the Shard of the Heart of the World, the restlessness in his body grew stronger, until finally, Wen Yu felt as if his body was nearing a burning point. His body temperature rose oddly, and his skin flushed red, yet he felt no discomfort.
After the entire second floor of the attic was dried by Wen Yu and the temperature increased, the Shard of the Heart of the World in front of him finally responded.
As if melted by Wen Yu's temperature, the earthy yellow crystal slowly liquefied, disappearing bit by bit. Wen Yu felt a hot current flowing from his hand, gradually streaming into his body.
It was just like the second transformation of the divine beast species; the divine beast cells within his body eagerly leapt towards the hot current flowing into him, like a pack of hungry wolves madly devouring the heat, which then turned into nutrients to transform themselves.
After a while, the Shard of the Heart of the World in his hand vanished, and the restlessness within his body gradually calmed down. Only then did Wen Yu shake his arm.
The original racial talent of the divine beast species had been doubled by the Shard of the Heart of the World. Now, Wen Yu's 1 point of physical condition was equivalent to that of a normal professional’s 12 points.
Then, Wen Yu looked at his skills.
The World Avenger appeared before Wen Yu's eyes.
...
The soul battlefield activated, and Wen Yu's soul body slowly floated out of his physical body.
