Talent Tree's Tenth Layer, the Gradually Approaching Curse

"152 Talent Points. Setting aside the Cheng Family's 31 points, the other families only provided 121..."

Lu Xingshi realized the amount was not actually that much. But after doing the math, there seemed to be only so many powerful families in the entire Lower District. Even if they all came out in full force, the numbers would average out to roughly this much.

To Lu Xingshi, it was not much.

Maxing out the sixth layer had consumed eleven points. The seventh layer required fifteen, the eighth twenty-eight, the ninth thirty-nine, and the tenth forty-nine.

That alone had consumed 142 points.

As a result, Lu Xingshi only had ten Talent Points left.

The eleventh layer was different. This time, it only had one Talent, called Source of Cloud River, and it required a full hundred Talent Points.

Lu Xingshi was certain that this was the key to Dewdrop Bead undergoing a qualitative transformation.

Unfortunately, he only had ten points left and could not activate this Talent at all.

He had obtained quite a few Talents during this time. Among them, the water-vapor series only appeared on the eighth layer, called Water Vapor Mastery. Its effect was similar to an enhancement-type specialization.

"What a pity. None of these skills are maxed out."

Lu Xingshi glanced at Production Enhancement, Purification Dew, and the like. They had all improved, but none had undergone a qualitative transformation.

He would probably have to wait until the twelfth layer of the Talent Tree opened before improving them further.

"The consumption is truly enormous."

"150 Talent Points, gone in one fell swoop."

That was not the problem. The real issue was that he did not even know where the top of this Talent Tree was, nor how many layers it had.

Leaving aside the special eleventh layer, the
