Digesting Power

He practically yelped when he saw the full extent of his unrestrained aura.

Manatium is much more durable than most of the strongest materials in Irona, including Adolescent Dragon parts. Not just its endurance but the ability to absorb most attacks that are magic related was staggering, yet for some reason, the metallic crystals were vibrating uncontrollably as though they were about to shatter under his pressure. Ichor sloshed around as though it were traditional water, not the liquid that weighed tons per bucket when Kyren manipulated it earlier.

Fierce transparent blazes gushed out of Kyren's figure with an astonishing intensity. The flames were a pale purple with a brilliant vibrancy that was mesmerizing. The startling characteristic about it was the extremely dark purple, maybe even black ripples pulsating and surging throughout his surroundings. These destructive ripples sent shockwaves for hundreds of meters.

The crystal cluster Kyren chose to hole up in, now resembled a rocky shore during a heavy storm in the movies, only everything looked unstable and ready to collapse.

Leo was slightly surprised that his master's aura was strong enough to create such a physical reaction. The purple flames spread out much farther then the shockwaves.

<Hmmm, seems like your aura has taken on the color of your highest elemental affinity, which of course is the void. You might even gain some random aura abilities that are related...

You'll be able to customize the color and element to a certain extent but this will be your personal default.>

Kyren stayed calm as he followed some more of Leo's instructions to gain better control.

.....

Hours went by and the two notifications he's been waiting for finally popped up.

<You have upgraded the proficiency [Advanced Physical Aura Control] to [Immaculate Physical Aura Control].>

<You have upgraded the proficiency [Advanced Physical Aura Manipulation] to [Immaculate Physical Aura Manipulation].>

He didn't get an elemental aura ability which somewhat upset him.

The once rampant blazes were now compressed to a small and perfect tennis-ball-sized sphere on the tip of his index finger, somehow retaining the same vast pressure as before. An additional benefit of having such deep control over his aura was the fact that he could completely mask his power level to that of regular an F~grade.

*Sigh*

Although he had unfathomable growth potential and was capable of learning/comprehending things at an insane rate of a few hours or days, it still took an unreal amount of effort and energy so he was exhausted. He sat down and finally decided to look at his personal information.

•<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<•

Kyren thoroughly read over his information while Leo explained anything he didn't understand.

[Draconic Physique] went through monumental changes now that he was an Elder Dragon.

Youngling physique> Increase to all attributes by 600% and fortitude by 3,000%

Adolescent physique> Increase to all attributes by 700% and fortitude by 3,200%

Adult physique> Increase to all attributes by 800% and fortitude by 3,400%

Elder physique> Increase to all attributes by 1,000% and fortitude by 3,800%

It also increased his base recovery among other things.

His race mutation didn't just change his appearance, but also added two new traits.

The innate talent, [Draconic Calamity], doubled his already ludicrous health and stamina base recovery rate, added a thousand points to the three physical attributes (strength/agility/dexterity), and increased his resistance to physical and internal damage to the next level.

There is another version of this talent for the other dragonoid mutation called Wonder Dragonoid or [Draconic Wonder] which basically did the exact opposite of the calamity version. It increased the mental/soul and magic resistances, added attribute points to the other three attributes (energy/intelligence/sense), and upgraded his other base recovery rates.

His mutation was more tailored to physical and close up combat because of his classes and proficiencies while the alternate version was made for magic and ranged combat. He already evolved down the calamity path so the wonder path was no longer an option.

[Dragonoid Overdrive] is similar to a berserker skill but instead of enhancing his combat performance or attributes, it made all of his stats such as stamina and base recovery rates indefinite. However, the more he used this, the stronger and more severe the future backlash would be, even if he activated it for a few seconds. This trump card was unimaginably overpowered as he could be thrown into the sun and still be fine (excluding the pain) so long as the skill was active.

Now that he solidified his control over his phisical aura, there was just one more thing he needed to attend to and it involved the aura [Transcendant Honor]. The second major milestone he crossed was entering the Transcendent Realm. Technically, he wasn't considered a transcendent until he "completed" this aura so he couldn't properly utilize his immense power without something going horribly wrong.

<Sadly, you cannot complete the process of crossing realms so quickly like you did for your phisical aura. It will take some time even with your growth potential.>

'How long?'

<I do not know. Because you didn't enter this stage of power slowly like everyone else, you need time to let your avatar and yourself cope. You can accomplish this by exercising different aspects of your body or mind through combat, meditation, etc. Progress: 2%.>

'I guess it can't be helped…'

Now that Kyren was mostly finished with digesting his power, he changed back into his human form and equipped his clothes. He was about to rush back when a thought appeared in his head.

'I don't plan on using my attribute points yet, but what do I do with my talent points?'

<Talent points can be used in two ways. You can either upgrade a talent that's a growth type or use them to learn random talents in a shuffle. The more points you use, the greater the increase to the cost.>

'Growth type…! How much to upgrade Glimpse of Lady Luck?'

<That'll be 15 points.>

This talent is the most powerful thing in his arsenal besides his growth potential and draconic blood. Luck actually affected a lot more aspects in the game than he thought so it was a given that he should blow all of his points on it. After all, just having thirty luck has benefitted him immensely so far, especially with random teleportation.

<You have upgraded the talent [Glimpse of Lady Luck] to [Acknowledgement of Lady Luck] for 15 talent points.>

'Do it again.'

<You have upgraded the talent [Acknowledgement of Lady Luck] to [Acquaintance of Lady Luck] for 30 talent points.>

'Again.'

<Before you continue, please choose the route you would like to take: [Friend of Lady Luck] for 60 talent points or [Interest of Lady Luck] for 90 talent points.>

Leo vaguely explained the difference between the two options. The second choice would have a much higher upgrade cost but the results would be better and he would gain some new abilities. Kyren hesitated for a second before confirming and crossing his fingers. He prayed that he wasn't swindled because he wouldn't be getting these many points again any time soon.

Although this method of leveling is efficient beyond belief, practically a cheat, he was only able to do it rarely. Leo explained just how difficult it was to just know about the Turbulent World, much less obtain a pass to get in. Only an extremely select and powerful few of the Transcendent Realm are allowed to enter for a limited amount of time. This raised the question on how Lucien accomplished this but he would ask him later. If Kyren couldn't get access to these large amounts of mana and ichor then there was no way he could do this again within many decades of waiting for another opportunity. The only way to get in sooner was to get stronger.

<You have upgraded the talent [Acquaintance of Lady Luck] to [Interest of Lady Luck] for 90 talent points.>

He nervously looked over the talents description and was dumbfounded, 'Keep going!'

<You have upgraded the talent [Interest of Lady Luck] to [Desire of Lady Luck] for 270 talent points. Required points and grade of power not met to continue.>

<Fantasy of the Divine> Luck attribute +145

{Active Ability}

<Embrace of the Divine> +30% increase to luck for 10 minutes.

<Living Charm> Your luck is contagious and all it takes is a graze of your finger to spread your fortune. You will give those you touch +40 luck but in turn, you will lose 5% of your total luck. Duration of the ability depends on amount of contact with said individual.

{Passive Aura Ability}

<Good Omen> Any allies within a certain distance of you will gain +20 points in luck.

<Bad Omen> Any enemies within a certain distance of you will lose -20 points in luck.

{Description}

Your relationship with Lady Luck is taking grand leaps as her desire for you grows. She bashfully embraces you when you request and lends you an extremely small fraction of her powers whenever you need them. Your memories of her divine figure slowly turn into fantasies.

<Remark>

"So are you considered a walking and breathing lucky horseshoe? I wonder if I can sneak you into the slots…."
