Awakening：The Infinite Evolution of My Talent as a Low-Level Awakener

Sterl activated the seal on his hand and entered the Land of All Beings.

He had previously discovered that, in addition to greatly enhancing his technique abilities, the Land of All Beings was also an excellent place for him to adapt to his own power.

Sterl didn't enter cultivation mode but instead switched to combat mode.

Soon, a large, shadowy figure began to slowly materialize in front of him. Under his mental control, Sterl also conjured a heavy sword similar to the Sword of the World in his hand.

"According to the rules of the Land of All Beings, combat mode should manifest an entity with physical strength similar to mine but with superior technique abilities. This way, I should quickly become accustomed to my current power."

Gripping the heavy sword, Sterl's worries eased slightly.

Within the Land of All Beings, even death would only result in a small loss of soul power. With his soul strength, even dying dozens of times consecutively wouldn't have a significant impact.

Before long, the figure completed its formation. He immediately sensed an intensely aggressive, piercing gaze locking onto him, causing his body to tense slightly. The terrifying power within him involuntarily surged forth.

Then… Boom!

Sterl's vision blurred, and in the next moment, his body exploded like a blood-red firework, scattering into countless pieces of flesh and blood in the air.

Not far away, the newly manifested figure paused for a moment, preparing to strike, but suddenly halted, looking extremely strange.

It was at that moment that he realized this entity was merely a materialized illusion without consciousness or life. If it had awareness, it would surely have been confused, not understanding what the enemy was trying to do.

Cough, cough... "The power is too volatile."

Inside the Land of All Beings, Sterl's figure reappeared.

He hadn't expected his concerns to materialize so quickly.

Just as he was about to strike, the power within him went out of control and exploded, resulting in a spectacular self-detonation.

However, after his consciousness left the Land of All Beings, he imprinted two sets of sealing formations on his body, continuing to engrave until there was no more space left to continue, finally stopping.

"This time, it should be fine."

He couldn't help but sigh. He never imagined that one day, the sealing formation ability he had mastered would be used on himself first.

Fortunately, his passive ability 'Strong Body' had been upgraded three times. With just four more upgrades, it would reach its ultimate form. Based on the effects of the Sublimation of Power, the ultimate passive for physical strength would greatly enhance his body's endurance, allowing him to bear the immense power within him.

He believed that by then, he would be able to freely wield the power he was so proud of.

His thoughts were pulled back as he noticed the figure from earlier not far from him—combat was about to break out!

A powerful sword beam came slicing through the air toward him. Sterl instinctively gripped his sword with one hand and deflected upward.

Boom!

The next moment, an empty sensation overwhelmed him, followed by intense pain and numbness. Looking closely, he realized his sword-wielding arm had been blasted off!

"I..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the heavy sword descended upon his head, killing him instantly.

Phew, what a mess.

Once his figure reformed, Sterl's eyes were filled with helplessness.

He had already tried to restrain his power, but the instinct of a swordsmanship master still caused him to explode with force when faced with danger.

Unfortunately, this instinct was a long-developed ability—powerful and rare—and he couldn't simply remove it.

"This kind of battle is just asking for trouble. It doesn't help me familiarize myself with this power at all."

Sterl shook his head. In comparison, a lower-intensity battlefield would be much more suitable. Only enemies of equal strength could help him refine and break through his swordsmanship.

However, as soon as this thought arose, an influx of information came from the Land of All Beings.

"It can do that too?"

After absorbing and processing the information, Sterl's heart lifted. He immediately focused his will and conveyed his intentions to the Land of All Beings.

Next, the powerful figure slowly disappeared, and the surrounding scenery suddenly transformed into a snowy world. Hard, frozen ice filled the area, and in the distance, a heavily armored warrior with an icy aura was quickly materializing.

"It can even activate combat mode? It truly has everything."

Looking at the incredibly realistic scene around him, Sterl couldn't help but praise.

But upon further thought, he realized that the Land of All Beings, being a sacred place for cultivation, naturally possessed such abilities. It made sense, given that a true master of techniques should not only be capable of facing various types of enemies but should also have the experience and methods to deal with entire armies.

A master of technique represents reaching the highest level of their personal practice, meaning there shouldn't be any obvious flaws or weaknesses.

It's similar to physical strength. For any body, whether in terms of power, speed, or strength, everything must be balanced and coordinated. If one aspect develops too much, it doesn't necessarily become stronger—it just ends up like him, with uncontrolled power and an imbalanced body.

"Kill!"

The deafening sound of a charge rang in his ears. Thousands of soldiers, tightly gripping their weapons, surged toward him in overwhelming numbers.

Sterl's expression grew increasingly serious as he gripped the heavy sword and slowly advanced to meet them.

'Overlord Sword·Ring Sever!'

...

At the bottom of Abyssal Prison, Sterl slowly stood up and felt the power within him, now fully under his control. The serious and solemn expression on his face finally began to ease.

"The explosive surge of power and my initial grasp of it is just the beginning. However, the seals on my body must not be undone until I fully master the ultimate passive for physical strength. It's not just a matter of control; my body cannot handle it."

Sterl analyzed aloud.

He had spent the better part of the day cultivating in the Land of All Beings, fighting soldiers materialized in the Frost world.

After slaughtering hundreds of thousands of soldiers and dying seven or eight times, he finally began to get a grasp on the rapidly increased power, at least enough to prevent a spectacular self-detonation due to power loss.

Only now did Sterl have the time to check the specific data on his recent enhancements.

[Infused with a massive amount of mysterious power, energy increased by 200%]

[Infused with a massive amount of mysterious power, health increased by 190%]

[Infused with a massive amount of mysterious power, base effects of strength, constitution, agility, and mind increased by 180%]

[Infused with a massive amount of mysterious power, overall recovery abilities (including energy, vitality, and mental strength) increased by 190%]

[Infused with a massive amount of mysterious power, perception of all things (including formations, laws, skills, talents...) increased by 200%]

[Infused with a massive amount of mysterious power, lifespan reduced by 10,000 years!]

[Infused with a massive amount of mysterious power, unknown resistance increased by 30 points!]

[Infused with a massive amount of mysterious power, body potential tier increased by +10!]

"No wonder... my power surged to the point of complete loss of control. The effects of a million high-level soul power are truly terrifying..."

Sterl stared at the nearly exaggerated enhancements, a flash of shock and regret in his eyes.

His overall attributes had increased by almost 200% on top of the 300,000 soul power boost from before!

Especially in terms of his physical attributes, his potential had greatly increased. Each point of attribute now caused effects that reached an unimaginable level.

It was precisely this enhancement that caused the power from Sublimation of Power to increase exponentially by several times, even tenfold, completely spiraling out of control!

Additionally, as he had guessed, the unknown resistance, which could not be analyzed by [Transcendence], required a greater scale to be improved upon. This time, the resistance to high-level soul power was increased by 30 points at once! With a total resistance of 90 points, this undoubtedly provided a much more solid foundation for using soul power in the future.

Compared to all these improvements, the increase in body potential tier was the most important!

"To think that my body potential tier increased by +10 in one go. As expected, fortune favors the bold. If I had been cautious, I would never have gained such a reward."

Sterl was overjoyed. Up until now, his body potential tier had been increased by a total of +14.

Before, it had been hard for him to feel it, but now, the huge increase allowed him to sense the terrifying potential within his body, as if it had no limits.

It was precisely because of this massive increase in body potential that he could bear the power of Sublimation of Power, which had been amplified nearly tenfold.

Without that, there would have been no chance to adapt to and familiarize himself with the power; he would have exploded and died the moment he began the enhancement process.

But despite his joy, a sense of heaviness weighed on his heart.

He touched his chest. Even though it had been more than half a day, the sharp pain in his chest had not faded.

The sensation was reminiscent of how he felt before his transmigration when he was still a mere mortal—like the feeling of prolonged sleepless nights, exhausting his body.

And that glaring number in the third-to-last column kept gnawing at his nerves.

"This time, I've actually consumed ten thousand years of lifespan."

Sterl said, somewhat shocked. Ten thousand years of life—despite his vitality, he could still feel the emptiness and pressure.

Though he could gradually replenish the lost lifespan, his intuition told him that if he kept going like this—constantly deteriorating and draining his energy—it could harm the very foundation of his life, causing irreversible damage and directly reducing his maximum lifespan.

"It seems that I can't absorb high-level soul power again until my life source has fully recovered."

"However, with my current strength, I'm already on the brink of losing control. Absorbing more would be the same as suicide."

Sterl said to himself, warning his own mind.

While strengthening his power was good, it was useless if he didn't have the life to wield it.
