Chapter 158 Accumulation and Bursting

Jiang Xiao retrieved the Weng Weng Whale, flashed onto the tower, and quietly guarded the "national gate."

The soldiers of the Guard Legion were orderly, and began to destroy the gates of the alien-dimensional space on the border again. From time to time, some soldiers looked up at the proudly standing figure.

The soldiers' eyes were full of admiration and gratitude, especially those guards who had been dragged back from the gate of hell, their gratitude was beyond words.

But no one disturbed Jiang Xiao.

And whenever the soldiers saw Jiang Xiao standing quietly, they felt particularly confident!

One person may not be able to guard this gate.

But this one person can become the backing of an entire army!

What is a Dinghai Shenzhen (lit. Sea-Stabilizing Divine Needle, fig. someone who can steady a critical situation)?

What is supporting a collapsing building?

On the tower, Jiang Xiao, who was paying attention to the situation in the distance, was also reading his internal star map:

"Star Power Realm: Star Sea Stage Lv.2."

Jiang Xiao's eyes lit up, Star Sea Stage Lv.2?

It seemed that his physical fitness had caught up, and the comprehension of Turning Stars into Weapons had delayed him too much, holding back his realm. That's why this situation of accumulating strength and then bursting forth occurred.

It was January 2020. As a millennial, Jiang Xiao had just had his birthday and was now 19 years old, or rather, 19 years and a few days.

After all, his birthday was too late in the year, on December 28th.

If based on Jiang Xiao's hometown customs, everyone said "virtual age," Jiang Xiao should be 20 years old at this time.

Of course, no one cared about this so-called birthday. Jiang Xiao had been on missions and had no time to worry about these things.

Even in the past few years, when Jiang Xiao was in school, he didn't celebrate his birthday. Not only Jiang Xiao, but also Xiao Jiangxue.

This may be the Han family's custom, or... since their parents left, Han Jiangxue was unwilling to celebrate her birthday and never mentioned it.

On the contrary, the siblings attached great importance to the Lunar New Year every time. Well... this statement is biased. It should be said that all Chinese people attach great importance to the Lunar New Year.

Speaking of which, it was already the beginning of January, and the Lunar New Year was coming again. He didn't know if this year's Lunar New Year's Eve would be as warm as in the past, or... Jiang Xiao didn't know if he would have time to spend it with his family this year.

Well... back to the main topic.

Training was a very important part, but as a human being, he couldn't escape the laws of nature.

Jiang Xiao's age was when his body was growing extremely fast, and it was also when his "hardware" could keep up with his Star Power Realm.

If possible, Jiang Xiao would like his body to be directly 25-29 years old, like Er Wei's age at this time. This was the peak age range for the human body, right? All aspects had basically grown and matured.

Currently, Jiang Xiao could only be considered a vigorously growing "chick."

While thinking, Jiang Xiao looked at the second module of the internal star map: Star Techniques.

If he hadn't looked, it wouldn't have mattered, but after this look, Jiang Xiao was a little confused!

All the star-quality Star Techniques had the word Lv.0 behind them!

Jiang Xiao: !!!

A world-shattering qualitative change!?

Originally, when reaching star quality, the small level behind it would disappear, which meant that the star was already the highest quality Star Technique.

But after the internal star map was upgraded, the small level behind it came back!?

What does this mean?

After Jiang Xiao entered the Star Sea level, he could turn stars into weapons. In this stage, star quality was no longer the highest quality!?

What's above that?

Suddenly, Xia Yan's scream popped into Jiang Xiao's head: Big Colored Diamond!

Jiang Xiao couldn't help but shiver. It must not be a big colored diamond! The level of the star is so high, don't pull it down!

At this time, in the internal star map, except for Clock, Bell, Inheritance Seal, Adoration, and Dawn (Finally Become a Family) which were diamond quality Lv.0, all other Star Techniques were star quality Lv.0.

Jiang Xiao was overjoyed. A higher Star Technique quality meant better Star Technique effects!

What would Blessing evolve into?

What about the Space-Time Gap? Where could it teleport to? Could it really make Jiang Xiao a true outlaw?

What about the Shadow of Calamity? How far can it be expanded?

And, most importantly... Earthly Glow!!!

Could it add a few more usable star charts to Jiang Xiao!?

Wow!

The more Jiang Xiao thought about it, the more excited he became. So comfortable!

So comfortable, it could kill a person ~

Jiang Xiao thought beautifully, while looking at the third module below, basic skills:

1. Unarmed Combat, Gold Quality Lv.3.

2. Abundant Star Power, Gold Quality Lv.1.

3. Dagger Mastery, Gold Quality Lv.5.

4. Xia Family Knife Technique, Diamond Quality Lv.2.

5. Archery Mastery, Gold Quality Lv.8.

6. Halberd Mastery, Platinum Quality Lv.3.

7. Combat Knife Mastery, Bronze Quality Lv.4.

Jiang Xiao nodded repeatedly. It seemed that his combat skills had made great progress, especially Archery Mastery. With a little more effort, he could use skill points to rush it!

Soon, Jiang Xiao could use the Withered Bow Star Chart to transform into a weapon. In this way... long-range explosive output was just around the corner!

The only thing that Jiang Xiao couldn't stand was "Abundant Star Power." From beginning to end, Abundant Star Power hadn't been upgraded much. In most cases, Jiang Xiao used skill points to rush it himself.

Jiang Xiao's various basic skills had made great progress, but only this Abundant Star Power remained ironclad, fixed at Gold Quality Lv.1.

Eh?

Something's not right, why does it seem like there's an extra basic skill?

Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment, Combat Knife Mastery?

What is this? When did I learn Combat Knife?

Bronze quality? Lowering the average value?

How can you have the face to stay in my Jiu Xing Du Nai's list of basic skills?

This......

Jiang Xiao's heart moved. Was this the basic skill that was activated when Jiang Xiao controlled Martha's body to train?

Martha's star chart was a combat knife. Of course, Martha, who was at the peak of the Star River, had already understood the transformation of stars into weapons and had already used it on the World Cup arena.

But Martha was Martha, and Jiang Xiao was Jiang Xiao.

Martha had died, leaving behind an empty shell, without imparting all her knowledge to Jiang Xiao.

When Jiang Xiao controlled Martha to fight, he also adhered to Martha's fighting habits and used a handy weapon that matched her combat knife star chart - a combat knife.

It seemed that in the process of Jiang Shou controlling Martha, he activated and trained this basic skill.

But......

Jiang Xiao always felt a little uncomfortable. Was it necessary to distinguish so clearly?

Aren't combat knives and daggers similar? Although the appearance is different, the usage is similar, right?

Um......

Jiang Xiao scratched his head. Under his shallow understanding, he felt that the usage of combat knives and daggers was not much different. Perhaps as the level of basic skills increased, the difference in usage would become greater and greater.

Jiang Xiao continued to look down and was really startled!

The rank of the star pets in the fourth module had increased to a certain extent!

The smallest increase was in the Black and White Candle, which didn't move at all and was still Platinum rank Lv.0.

Of course, since Jiang Xiao needed the Black and White Candle to upgrade in order to increase the number of "attached" objects, the rank and realm of the Black and White Candle were all rushed up by Jiang Xiao with skill points.

From this level alone, the Black and White Candle, which should have been Bronze rank, had the largest increase. After all, it was now a Platinum rank creature.

And the data presented by the veteran Yinyin Bear was simply ecstatic for Jiang Xiao!

Jiang Xiao had taken the Yinyin Bear to participate in the Elite Star Pet Master Invitational Tournament and had also taken it to participate in various battlefields. It could be said that he had fought in the north and south and had made great achievements.

Now, the ignorant national treasure · bamboo bear's rank was actually "Platinum Rank Lv6"!

My goodness.

So much stored experience?

Directly from Platinum Lv.1 to Lv.6? That's five thousand skill points!

Jiang Xiao's Adam's apple wriggled for a while, and he had a feeling of "picking up money".

Below, the rank level of the Weng Weng Whale had also reached Diamond Rank Lv.3.

According to the diamond quality, it would take 10,000 skill points to upgrade a small level. That's 20,000 skill points!

To be honest, the Weng Weng Whale had many highlight moments, but overall, it had participated in far fewer battles than the Bamboo Bear.

Thinking about it this way, the Weng Weng Whale should have grown and trained on its own?

Of course, although the strength rank had grown, the quality of their Star Techniques was still the same as before, without any change.

It seemed that Star Techniques and the body were different and could not be grown through training. They could only be rushed by Jiang Xiao's skill points.

But that was enough! What else do you want?

The rank level of the Black and White Candle Soul (Sea-Swallowing Clothes) was also Diamond Rank Lv.3!

When Jiang Xiao absorbed the Soul of Swallowing the Sea, he was careful. When it was in the wild state, he poured the Soul of Swallowing the Sea to the Diamond rank before absorbing it.

It seemed that the Sea-Swallowing Clothes, which had accompanied Jiang Xiao for a long time, had also made great progress in strength.

These two star pets saved Jiang Xiao tens of thousands of skill points! As the future became stronger and stronger, the skill points saved would definitely be even more!

Okay! Very strong!

The more Jiang Xiao looked at it, the happier he became.

The internal star map had finally unified the standards for pets and wild star beasts!

Why do I say that?

When Jiang Xiao absorbed a star pet, the rank level of the star pet would be fixed, and he could only use skill points to rush it. It would not be improved through training or autonomously.

However, wild star beasts, including other people's star pets, could become stronger and grow on their own through continuous training and hard work.

A typical example was the Bai Shan Xue Yu that Jiang Xiao had poured out.

When Er Wei absorbed Xiao Xiao as her star pet, Xiao Xiao was only Platinum rank and was still a cub.

But after a long period of training, Jiang Xiao poured Xiao Xiao to the Diamond rank!

This had already proved that Er Wei's star beast was in a state of continuous growth.

However, the growth of all star beasts was limited.

If you are a Platinum rank creature, you can only increase to the top of the Platinum rank and cannot break through the imprisonment of the rank.

And Jiang Xiao could forcibly pour star power through the divine skill of the Light of Reversal, allowing the star pet to break the imprisonment and increase the rank.

If Jiang Xiao absorbed Xiao Xiao, the rank level would definitely be fixed at Platinum Quality Lv.1! If he didn't use skill points to rush it, Xiao Xiao might not even improve.

Now, the internal star map had advanced and unified the standards!

Good! Very good! Very good!

From now on, Jiang Xiao's star pets would continue to grow through training like their kind. This saved Jiang Xiao a lot of "expenses"!

Speaking of expenses......

Jiang Xiao continued to look down at the fifth module and was a little confused when he saw a string of numbers.

After the World Cup, his skill points were fixed at 200,000.

After Jiang Xiao advanced to the Star Sea stage and the internal star map closed, Jiang Xiao was not idle. He performed many difficult tasks and added two more medals to his body.

He explored the Dragon Cave and obtained a Full Moon Medal. He chased Baze and reported the information of the Star Transformation Organization to his superiors, which was another Full Moon Medal.

As for Jiang Xiao's destruction of the Underwater Bookstore in Ludong Province and his meritorious service in solving the world crisis, the medal had not yet been issued.

But two Full Moon Medals were 60,000 skill points! Added to the previous skill points, the total was 260,000!

Jiang Xiao muttered to himself, looking at the numbers in the internal star map, and was extremely excited. He had never seen such a huge sum of money!

After two World Cups, Jiang Xiao had millions of savings under various rewards.

But Jiang Million didn't care about that monetary figure!

Skill points were completely different!

He looked at the skill points and counted softly, his voice trembling more and more: "One... ten... hundred... thousand... Bro... Daddy..."
