Battling Star Beasts, Experience Soars!

Boom!

Rubble flew across the ground.

A terrifying tiger-shaped beast, three to four meters at the shoulder and seven to eight meters long, kept letting out earth-shaking roars as it fought desperately against a human youth.

The youth was only around 1.89 meters tall, as inconspicuous as an ant before such an enormous Stellar Behemoth.

Yet this tiny "ant" gave the Spotted Starblade Tiger an incomparably immense sense of pressure.

Every one of the youth's attacks seemed to contain the power of mountains and seas. Even a casual kick while shifting and maneuvering could knock the massive Spotted Starblade Tiger back, shaking the ground for a thousand meters.

From afar, the sight gave off an overwhelming sense of contrast and unreality...

"Now this is satisfying."

The youth was naturally Lin Yuan.

At this moment, he did not use Heaven-Sundering Sword Draw. Relying solely on his physical body, he engaged a genuine Stellar Behemoth in close combat.

And he had not fallen into the slightest disadvantage!

"Perfect-Grade Swordsmanship..."

"Fourfold force!"

A hint of satisfaction flashed through Lin Yuan's eyes.

As a bona fide Stellar Behemoth, the Spotted Starblade Tiger's massive body had not grown so large for nothing. Its physique was tempered to an extreme degree, and every movement contained a million jin of force—enough to split mountains, shatter rocks, and shake the earth.

Yet Lin Yuan, with his flesh-and-blood human body, could meet it head-on without falling behind. Naturally, this was thanks to the Perfect-Grade Swordsmanship he had just broken through to!

Fourfold force brought a fourfold increase in combat power.

His physical body possessed one hundred thousand jin of strength, while the two strands of Natal Stellar Force tempered within him contained two hundred thousand jin of strength.

In other words, after using his Natal Stellar Force, he could unleash three hundred thousand jin of force at full power.

Combined with the fourfold force of Perfect-Grade Swordsmanship... that amounted to a full 1.2 million jin of strength!

Such power was already comparable to an ordinary Second-Tier Transcendence Realm warrior who had tempered ten strands of Natal Stellar Force. He could even battle a genuine Stellar Behemoth head-on.

The Spotted Starblade Tiger before him was irrefutable proof!

Boom!

Whoosh!

Clang!

The Spotted Starblade Tiger roared again and again, launching furious attacks time after time.

Its terrifying claws were like blades, swinging with a million jin of force—enough to tear through metal and stone, split mountains, and shatter rocks.

But Lin Yuan's expression did not change. He thrust out his sword, swift as lightning, its radiance dazzling as it knocked the beast away directly without him retreating a single step!

And while defending, his swordsmanship was even more elusive. From time to time, he found openings in the Spotted Starblade Tiger's defense, his blade darting like a venomous snake and leaving behind deep sword wounds with precise cuts.

Perfect-Grade Swordsmanship was not merely a technique for exerting fourfold force. It also contained an almost perfect method of combat.

Whether attacking or defending, it was flawless.

Without being at the same realm or possessing an overwhelmingly greater amount of strength, it was simply impossible to break through Lin Yuan's swordsmanship.

Over time, more and more bloody wounds appeared on the Spotted Starblade Tiger's body, nearly dyeing the earth crimson.

Its strength gradually began to fade as it lost too much blood.

And what about Lin Yuan?

He remained full of vigor. Not only had his stamina not diminished in the slightest, he even seemed to grow stronger the longer he fought...

"Heaven-Defying Earth-Shaking"!

Infinite stamina, stronger with every battle.

What did not kill me only made me stronger!

With the support of this Talent Trait, it was almost impossible for Lin Yuan to die in battle.

It was truly terrifying!

"Perfect-Grade Swordsmanship really is extraordinary..."

The Goddess Luo Squad saw everything clearly from their elevated position.

The rhythm of the entire battle was almost entirely in Lin Yuan's control. The poor Spotted Starblade Tiger was being toyed with in his palm without even realizing it.

Whoosh!

At last, after draining the last trace of the other party's strength, Lin Yuan casually thrust his sword through its skull.

Crack...

Without Stellar Force supporting it, the "Astral Realm" was no longer as indestructible as before. The sword light forcefully pierced a crack through it, and it gradually collapsed.

One-Stripe Common-Grade Star Beast, Spotted Starblade Tiger, dead!

Lin Yuan smiled.

This battle had actually taken quite a while. It had not been as effortless and stylish as killing his opponents with a single sword strike before.

But it also proved Lin Yuan's current strength—without even using his trump card, Heaven-Sundering Sword Draw, he could still easily kill Star Beasts. He was inferior to no one!

Moreover, although this kind of close slaughter took a little longer, its advantage was obvious—it consumed relatively little Stellar Force and allowed him to maintain peak combat strength for a long time.

He would not drain himself dry with a single sword strike and be unable to fight again...

Each method had its own advantages and disadvantages.

Even so, Lin Yuan's actual combat ability still left the women of the Goddess Luo Squad utterly amazed.

Gu Yiyi in particular had stars practically shining from her eyes. Her little mouth kept shouting about how awesome Lin Yuan was...

She had actually tempered her second strand of Natal Stellar Force as well. After all, she had broken through slightly earlier than Lin Yuan.

But with the same two strands of Natal Stellar Force, she could at most unleash six hundred thousand jin of force. When facing Stellar Behemoths with a million jin of strength at every turn, she could only fight them in a drawn-out battle and rely on technique to win.

How could she be like Lin Yuan—fierce and domineering, possessing both strength and skill, his combat as fluid as a work of art...

She was truly convinced.

Lin Yuan's various performances over this period had completely overturned everything she had once believed.

His cultivation aptitude was top-tier. In less than half a month, he had tempered his second strand of Natal Stellar Force...

His talent and comprehension were top-tier. The moment he broke through, he learned the Sky-Grade Stellar Force Secret Arts said to rank second in overall difficulty...

Even his accomplishments in the sword path left her in awe. How long had it been, yet he had already mastered Perfect-Grade Swordsmanship!

And then there was that peerlessly handsome face that had made even her fall at first sight...

Ah, why did such a perfect person exist in this world?

The little girl's face was flushed, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she nearly stuck herself to Lin Yuan.

The other members of the Goddess Luo Squad felt more or less the same. Though they were not as exaggerated as Gu Yiyi, they all held an immense fondness for Lin Yuan.

Who could possibly dislike such a young man?

"Uh... why do I suddenly feel like a sheep that wandered into a wolf pack?"

Lin Yuan returned victorious and was immediately surrounded by a flock of lovely women. Raising his eyes, he found nothing but glittering gazes, and he could not help shivering.

Yeah, being too outstanding was a crime too...

The youth brooded inwardly.

After confirming the tremendous boost Perfect-Grade Swordsmanship gave to his strength, Lin Yuan went all out and stopped testing the waters.

He began actively seeking battles, fighting Star Beasts again and again. With his Stellar Force and physical body perfectly fused, alongside the fourfold force of Perfect-Grade Swordsmanship, every sword strike carried over a million jin of force—enough to threaten most One-Stripe Rank Common-Rank Star Beasts.

With the Goddess Luo Squad standing guard, he did not need to worry about drawing stronger Star Beasts. He only needed to slaughter to his heart's content.

Whenever he encountered a powerful Star Beast that he could not defeat in close combat, he did not hesitate in the slightest. He simply drew his sword and sundered the heavens!

Heaven-Sundering Sword Draw, condensed from two strands of Stellar Force, was even more powerful than before. The vast majority of Common-Rank Star Beasts below Lord Grade could not withstand such terrifying swordsmanship.

They were slain one after another, split in two!

And what happened when his Natal Stellar Force was depleted?

Ordinary Starry-Sky Warriors used breathing techniques to recover Natal Stellar Force, but the process was inefficient and could take most of a day.

Only special potions or treasures that rapidly restored Stellar Force could allow them to recover quickly.

But Lin Yuan?

He merely had to keep eating!

With the help of "Devouring Vitality," he could recover his stamina and Natal Stellar Force at the fastest possible rate.

Basically, he could make a full recovery in an hour.

Returning once more to his perfect peak state.

Such formidable recovery ability also made the others in the Goddess Luo Squad deeply envious.

Yet they no longer seemed quite so shocked inside.

After all, they had grown used to it...

In just one month, the youth before them had already revealed too many unbelievable things. This abnormal recovery ability now seemed nothing out of the ordinary.

And with Lin Yuan working so diligently, his achievements advanced by leaps and bounds—

30 Star Beasts...

50 Star Beasts...

70 Star Beasts...

Very soon, a month passed.

Lin Yuan had finally achieved the feat of slaying one hundred Star Beasts in a row!

"You have slain a One-Stripe Rank Common-Rank Star Beast. Experience +20..."

"Your lifespan has increased..."

"Experience is full. Your game level has increased..."

"You have obtained one opportunity to draw a Talent Trait..."
