Chapter 4: Strengthening of Yuan Force

```

"Take off?"

Tao Yu felt the transformation deep within his soul, that indescribable feeling stirring his heart with exhilaration.

The world before his eyes became clearer, the enhancement of his vision was immediately apparent.

He had never even heard of a talent like Divinity.

Not to mention that strange (MAX++??) level, he had never heard of that either; it felt like a jumble.

However, Tao Yu had some vague guesses about the description of the outer gods from the void, perhaps related to his own transmigration.

Just looking at the three known abilities of Divinity, none seemed to directly increase combat abilities at the moment, but they represented limitless potential!

The gift from the world's will was not something datified and fixed, every person's practiced abilities would decline without regular training.

It was only with the accelerated strengthening from Yuan Force that one could maintain stability through proper exercise and consumption.

But Tao Yu wouldn't need to worry about these things anymore!

Any injuries could also be healed through Yuan Force and eating—an equally superb skill.

Right by Tao Yu's side were his disabled third brother and Uncle Hu, and even his parents had their fair share of accumulated injuries over the years, but none of these were a problem for him anymore!

The second ability, Spiritual Immunity, though simple in meaning, the prefix "ignore any" was enough to demonstrate its terrifying potential. A true might that grows stronger with stronger foes!

For the last ability, Deification, Tao Yu did not yet have a concrete concept, but he could vaguely sense its greatness.

Yuan Force, a power scattered throughout the Abyssal Rift and the fragments of many worlds.

It usually concentrates in various Yuan Force creatures and items. Killing Yuan Force creatures would leave remnants imbued with residual Yuan Force, some of which might even carry knowledge, skills, or incomplete information.

The same goes for items of Yuan Force; sometimes they have special functions.

For example, the Autonomic Gun Turret on the roof of his house was a secondhand Yuan Force item capable of automatically targeting and attacking nearby fog demons.

Yuan Force itself acted more like a training accelerator, typically reaching one's own limits of practice.

Take physical training for instance, accelerated by Yuan Force, a normal person had the chance to reach the peak of human capabilities in every aspect like sprinting, weightlifting, Endurance, and so forth.

But without any other talents or skills, this would be the limit, and this limit would quickly decline without continuous practice, usually requiring consistent exercise and even some Yuan Force consumption to maintain the state.

The same applied to various skills—firearms, martial arts, and so on.

If new skills or knowledge were acquired from the remnants of Yuan Force creatures, or if a skill was learned from a character within a world fragment,

It could also be accelerated by Yuan Force, and at critical moments, one could break through bottlenecks by consuming considerable amounts of Yuan Force, depending on personal aptitude and the difficulty of the skill.

The consumption of Yuan Force was closely related to one's base strength, talents, skill difficulty, and training methods. An individual with combat talents training in their specialized area would consume much less Yuan Force.

And the stronger the individual, the greater the consumption rate in acceleration.

It could be said that Yuan Force was important, but not almighty—it often brought about a quantitative accumulation.

Now, with the ability of Deification in play, was it possible to use Yuan Force to achieve a qualitative change in abilities?

This sent a surge of excitement through Tao Yu's heart. After taking a deep breath to calm down, he once again opened his backpack and took out a canvas bag. As he took it out, the tinkling sounds of metal colliding could be heard, as if it contained some metallic objects.

Upon opening the bag, one could see the shining metal crystals inside.

This was the currency that bore Yuan Force, a gift from his parents, drawn from their own accumulated Yuan Force and bestowed upon some special metals. It was something that could only be used after talent awakening and the greatest gift his parents could give on the day of his awakening!

Talent awakening didn't have a fixed panel, it was more like a consciousness, and the quantity of Yuan Force didn't have a standardized unit of measurement either.

But everyone could endow a definition convenient for recording with their will.

According to his parents' experience and the common definitions used in transactions with the company, counting their combined monthly income of three hundred units, these Yuan Force could be seen as a thousand units of Yuan Force.

Capable of accomplishing a hundredfold acceleration of practice at the level of an ordinary person for ten hours, or a twentyfold acceleration for a hundred hours.

As personal abilities or skills improved, the consumption of Yuan Force grew larger.

Also, to achieve more efficient acceleration in a short term, the consumption would increase progressively, reducing cost-effectiveness. These two acceleration modes were what Tao Yu's parents found to be relatively suitable for the day of awakening.

Although the first method was less cost-effective than the second, it could significantly reduce the time cost on the perilous day of awakening. By spending a day on high-intensity practice, one could quickly obtain targeted ability improvements, depending on the varied environments of the fragments.

If the acceleration effect was condensed to one hour, that might only yield a five-hundredfold speed increase, the cost-effectiveness not suitable for Tao Yu's current use.

As the acceleration effects improved, the consumption would rise exponentially, and with further improved strength, the rate at which Yuan Force was consumed would increase even further. Eventually, even the great figures might not be able to afford it.
