151 Star Power! Dao of Stars!

"That's it?"

Lin Bei waited for more system notifications, but after a few minutes, there was no reaction.

"What more do you expect? Didn't I already pass the Star Swordsman inheritance to you? It's already over."

At the side, Jian Yi felt light and smiled.

"… At least it's a profession that can grow. Is there anything special about it?"

The corners of Lin Bei's mouth twitched in dissatisfaction.

"Yes. Isn't there star power? As for the rest, kid, we're a Level F profession. It's the lowest profession. What special rewards can there be?"

"I—"

"Alright, we Star Swordsmen have to rely on our own efforts. If you want to become stronger, work harder."

Jian Yi smiled. "Let's go and drink together. Seeing how pitiful you are, I'll reluctantly teach you my Wine Sword so that you won't run around like a headless fly."

"…"

Lin Bei fell silent.

He looked at the only talent he had obtained after changing his profession.

—-|—-

Star Power (Special Talent): Absorb and fuse all things to condense the Star Power. Current Level: F.

Star Power: 100/100

Note: Consumes the Star Power. Releasing skills will obtain a corresponding percentage damage bonus. The Star Power can't automatically recover at the moment. It needs to absorb items to recover.

—-|—-

"Jian Yi, is the power of the stars so trash? It can't recover automatically?"

"Haha, don't worry. You're only Level F now. When you reach Level S, your star power will automatically recover."

"…How long will that take?"

Lin Bei could not help but ask.

"Well, that depends on you. If you can fuse with some powerful items, it will naturally be very fast."

Sword smiled and explained, "For Star Power, upgrading to Level E requires 1,000 points. At Level D, 10,000 points. At Level C, 100,000 points. At Level B, 1,000,000 points. At Level A, 10,000,000 points. And so on. Therefore, if you want the Star Power to have an automatic recovery effect, you have to at least increase the upper limit of Star Power to 100 million points!"

"…"

Lin Bei was speechless.

100 million points of star power?

How long would it take to absorb and fuse?

Speaking of which, he had yet to try.

Lin Bei thought about it and took out an Obsidian-grade equipment from his backpack. Then, he used his innate star power.

Use the Star Power! Please choose how to use it!

Mode 1: Recover the Star Power!

Mode 2: Increase the upper limit of Star Power!

Lin Bei directly chose Mode 2 to increase the upper limit of Star Power!

You have absorbed and fused with the Flaming Violent Blade! The upper limit of Star Power has increased by 1,000 points! Current Star Power: 1,100

Your Star Power level has increased! Current Level: E.

You have unlocked a new Star Talent—Dao of Stars.

"It increased just like that? Not bad. One Obsidian-grade can increase the upper limit of star power by 1,000 points. How awesome."

Lin Bei grinned when he heard the System notification.

"In that case, I only need 100,000 Obsidian-grade equipment to upgrade Star Power to S-grade!"

Lin Bei thought to himself, "On the other hand, after leveling up my talent, I can actually obtain a new ability! Not bad!"

Lin Bei looked at the Dao of Stars that he had just obtained in his attribute pane.

Dao of Stars (Special Talent): Thousands of stars, vast Great Dao. Level: E. Optional number of paths: 2.

"Uh… what does this mean?"

Lin Bei looked at the introduction of the Dao of Stars and was stunned.

"Haha, don't you understand?"

On the side, Jian Yi smiled and said, "The Dao of Stars is actually divided into two paths, the Space-time Path and the Yin-Yang Path. There will be many subdivisions. My main Dao of Wine belongs to the Yang Path of the Yin-Yang Dao!"

"For each level of talent, you can activate more cultivation paths. However, I suggest that you choose one to major in. After all, cultivation requires a lot of star power and needs to be done according to your ability."

"Of course, I have a ready-made wine path here. If you want, I can directly lay the foundation for you so that you don't waste the power of the stars. Think about it."

After Jian Yi finished speaking, he raised his head and took a sip of wine. He smiled at Lin Bei and waited for his reply.

When Lin Bei heard this, he fell into deep thought.

What should he choose?

Actually, he had not thought about it.

"Forget it, I'll choose the ready-made one first. Anyway, it's a free gift. It's a waste not to choose! As for the others, it won't be too late to change them in the future!"

Soon, Lin Bei made a choice.

He chose the ready-made wine path.

Putting everything else aside, Jian Yi had relied on the wine path to reach SSS-level. Just this alone was enough to make Lin Bei make up his mind.

At most, he would follow Jian Yi's old path.

After all, he was an SSS-class profession.

It was not a loss.

"Haha, kid, your choice is wise!"

After Jian Yi received Lin Bei's answer, he laughed and did not say anything else. The smell of alcohol soared into the sky and turned into a star that was wrapped in endless sword intent. Finally, it fused with Lin Bei.

You have activated the Wine Dao!

You have unlocked new skills, "Drinking Madness" and "Drinking Silence".

Current Wine Dao Value: 1,100 points

Drinking Madness: Consumes Wine Dao Value to activate the exclusive Wine Dao Buff.

Drinking Silence: Restores Wine Dao Value through drinking. Turn off the exclusive Wine Dao Buff.

Note: After the Wine Dao Value reaches 0, excessive drinking will cause one to enter a drunken state. All attributes will decrease.

"Alright! I'll leave the rest to you! The upper limit of the Wine Dao Value is the same as the upper limit of your Star Power. If you want to activate more Wine Dao Buffs, you need a higher upper limit of the Wine Dao Value."

Jian Yi looked at Lin Bei, who was carefully studying the new skills, and said with a smile, "The higher the quality of the wine, the stronger the Wine Dao Buff activated, but the higher the consumption of Wine Dao Points. You have to control the Wine Dao Points. If it's lower than 0, you'll lose your mind. Back then, I drank ten thousand wines at once and lost my mind. In the end, I failed. I hope you remember this and don't get carried away!"

"Otherwise, you'll regret it."

On the other side, Lin Bei had already finished reading the new skills. Hearing Jian Yi's advice, he nodded and said, "Don't worry about that. I'll control it well."

Lin Bei looked at the Wine Dao Value and understood.

This thing could drop to a negative number.

Fortunately, Lin Bei had the Unlimited Buff talent and could make the activated Wine Buff last forever.

However, there was also a problem if he did this.

That was, the Wine Dao Points could not be automatically recovered. Therefore, as long as he wanted to recover the Wine Dao Buff, he had to use Drinking Silence. However, in this way, one of the Wine Dao Buffs he activated would disappear.

As for which one would disappear, he asked Jian Yi. This was random.

This was a trap!

What if he recovered his Wine Dao Points and directly lost a top-grade Wine Dao Buff?

He would cry to death!

However, there seemed to be nothing Jian Yi could do about this. He only patted Lin Bei's shoulder and comforted him. "It's fine. When your Wine Dao advances to Level S, ahem, which is 100 million Wine Dao Points, your Wine Dao Points can automatically recover like the power of the stars. At that time, these worries of yours will be gone."

When Lin Bei heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched.

Damn it, from what you said, why do I feel that Level S is so easy?

That requires 100,000 Obsidian-grade equipment!

"Alright, let's drink! Don't you Descended Ones have a saying? If you have wine today, just drink today and worry tomorrow!"

With that, Jian Yi hooked his arm around Lin Bei's shoulder and disappeared under the dim starry sky.

In the next second, the two of them appeared in the ruins. Beside them was a pile of wine.

"Come, let's drink first. You can also adapt to your new strength!"

Jian Yi smiled and poured Lin Bei a cup of burning knife. He handed it over. "One mouthful is enough. It's a waste if there's too much."

Lin Bei came back to his senses.

So that was the case. Previously, he thought that he needed to drink an entire jar of wine to use the drinking skill!

Now, it seemed that he was overthinking.

"That's good too. Otherwise, the further we progress, the more money this wine path will cost!"

Lin Bei heaved a sigh of relief. If he drank one jar at a time, he would not be able to afford such top-grade wine!

However, one sip was much better.

One jar could be used many times, saving a lot.

You have activated Drinking Madness!

You have drunk a low-quality Burning Knife! Wine Dao Value -2 points! Attack +20. Duration: 60 seconds!

Unlimited Buff talent effective! The duration of the Burning Knife Buff has become permanent!

"Comfortable."

Lin Bei drank the wine happily.

Then, he poured another glass of Jimo Old Wine and drank it in one gulp.

Jimo Wine Buff: -100 Wine Dao Value, Maximum Health +10,000, Constitution +100, Duration ∞.

Again!

Flower Intoxication Buff: -100 Wine Dao Value, Maximum MP +10,000, Magic Strength +100, duration ∞.

…

Lin Bei drank cup after cup and kept gaining Buffs for himself. Although the Buffs of these inferior wines were limited, they accumulated.

Your Wine Dao Value has decreased to 0 points!

Suddenly, a system notification sounded in his ear, causing Lin Bei to freeze in his actions.

"Why don't I give it a try?"

Lin Bei's heart skipped a beat. He had just asked Jian Yi. After the alcohol value became negative, it could slowly recover to 0.

He could recover 1 point in a minute. When it recovered to 0 points, he would wake up again.

At the thought of this, Lin Bei gave himself a low-quality Burning Knife that only consumed 2 Wine Dao Value and drank it in one gulp.

Wine Dao Value -2! Current Wine Dao Value: -2.

You have entered the drunken state!

All your attributes have decreased by 2 points!

Lin Bei felt dizzy and lost consciousness.

At this moment, Jian Yi, who was sitting opposite him and drinking wine happily, had his expression change.

"Damn, didn't you just say that you would control your Wine Dao Value? How long has it been and you're already drunk?"

Jian Yi cursed and raised his hand. He put away the remaining wine and turned to run.

However, at this moment, his ankle tightened and a huge force came. Then, he was dragged into the crack underground by the irrational Lin Bei!

"Ah!!! Brat, are you done?! I hate underground!!!"

Jian Yi shouted.

However, Lin Bei had already lost consciousness and was only attacking Jian Yi instinctively.

Although his attributes had decreased, his Wine Dao Value had only reached -2, so his attributes had not decreased much. It did not affect him at all.

However, it was Jian Yi's turn to be miserable.

If he did not remove the seal now, he was not Lin Bei's match at all!

Therefore, soon, Jian Yi exploded with a scream and died!

Soon, a new body condensed on the ruins altar.

Almost instantly, Jian Yi jumped up and prepared to escape.

However, Lin Bei was even faster!

Jian Yi was dragged underground again!

Screams sounded continuously from the cracks in the ground.

"Damn! Stop! Damn you! Stop!"
