Chapter 577: Talent Transferred to the Soul – Absolutely Shocking

Antares’s words were lighthearted, but the seriousness they conveyed should not be ignored.

Jiang Chen keenly grasped this point; he knew that every word Antares mentioned contained profound meaning.

There are very few things in this world that can truly make Antares take things seriously.

He always looked down on all living beings with an detached attitude, and even beings like the Demon Emperor and the Dragon Emperor could not move him in the slightest.

Jiang Chen knew nothing about Antares's level, but he was certain that Antares was no ordinary being; his strength was definitely no less than that of a transcendent being. In this world, Antares's existence was a transcendence, an ineffable transcendence.

At this moment, Jiang Chen felt that what Antares mentioned was very important, so he pricked up his ears and listened attentively.

Antares finally stopped keeping him in suspense and slowly said, "I once mentioned to you three ways to become a transcendent being, the first of which is to use formations. Although this method seems simple, it is actually the worst."

Jiang Chen nodded in agreement, understanding the drawbacks of using formations to become a super god.

Because it relies on external forces, once the array's help is lost, the strength will be greatly reduced, making them the weakest among the super-gods.

Antares continued, "In fact, this drawback exists not only in the process of becoming a god, but also in the third transformation."

“Using formations for job awakening is indeed fine, because at that time the formations are just a guide to help the job seeker open new doors. However, during the second job change, although the problem is not yet major, the drawbacks have begun to show. This is because at that time the soul and skills are relatively weak and have not yet formed a solid foundation.”

"But the situation is completely different when you reach the third stage. For those who want to become a transcendent being, the third stage is a crucial moment for laying a solid foundation. The deeper and more solid the foundation, the greater the possibility of becoming a transcendent being in the future. Therefore, using formations to perform the third stage will cause irreversible damage to the foundation."

“External forces are just external forces; they will affect your foundation and thus prevent you from becoming a true god,” Antares said in a deep voice.

Jiang Chen frowned, asking with some confusion, "So, according to you, is it possible for me to complete the third job advancement without relying on the job advancement array?"

Antares smiled slightly, as if he had already anticipated Jiang Chen's question: "Of course. In the era before the class change array was invented, how did people change classes? How were the first god-level powerhouses created?" Jiang Chen fell into deep thought; he had never truly considered this question before. In his understanding, the class change array was almost an essential step to becoming a professional.

"So, perhaps we really have fallen into some kind of misconception," Jiang Chen muttered to himself, his voice heavy with unease.

Antares shook his head: "It's not entirely a misconception. Without the job change array, the number of professionals in this world would be greatly reduced. While this option gives most people the opportunity to become professionals, it also means giving up the elite path."

"Humanity chose this path for survival, and it was already so in the previous era. If there is any mistake, it did not begin in this era, but was foreshadowed in the previous era."

Jiang Chen remained silent for a moment, a strange sense of emotion welling up inside him. He realized that humanity's choice was both a step forward and a sacrifice. The large number of professionals gave humanity more chances of survival when facing the threats of demons and dragons, but it also meant giving up those elites who could have become truly powerful.

Antares's words made Jiang Chen realize that there were indeed super-gods in the previous era, and more than one. However, because they abandoned the elite path, these super-gods all seemed too weak in Antares's eyes.

Jiang Chen couldn't help but recall Antares's words: "One true strongman is worth more than hundreds or thousands of weaker ones." He wholeheartedly agreed, and the Demon Emperor's threat proved this point once again. If Jiang Yi hadn't intervened, probably no one could have stopped that giant hand.

Thinking about this, Jiang Chen gained a deeper understanding of Antares's theory. He looked up at Antares and asked earnestly, "So, how can I complete the third job advancement without relying on the job advancement array?"

For Jiang Chen, undergoing a third class change without relying on a class change array was a completely new challenge. He had never tried this method before, and he estimated that even consulting the experienced Li Xueru wouldn't necessarily provide useful advice. The royal treasury might contain abundant records, but methods for changing classes without relying on arrays were likely completely blank.

Antares's voice was calm and deep, as if carrying some kind of magic, leading Jiang Chen's thoughts to an unknown realm: "You possess the Enchanting Blue Flame. Although it is not a rare treasure, it is like adding wings to a tiger for you now. It has enhanced your soul's origin, greatly increasing the upper limit of your soul. Coupled with the pure soul energy you obtained from the Spirit-Eating Beast, the essence of your soul has almost reached the god level."

"With such a powerful soul as a foundation, reaching the third rank is not an unattainable dream for you." Antares' words were full of encouragement and confidence for Jiang Chen.

However, Antares didn't stop there. He went on to explain further: "But before you actually begin your third job change, you need to understand the essence of job change. It's not just a ritual or a process, but a profound connection between you and the origin of your skills, and with the laws of nature."

Jiang Chen listened intently, knowing that every word Antares spoke contained profound meaning. He tried his best to memorize Antares's words, as if to etch this wisdom into the depths of his soul.

After listening to Antares's explanation, Jiang Chen gained a deeper understanding of the so-called "elite route." Changing jobs without relying on a job-changing array is indeed an extremely difficult path with extremely stringent requirements. Among tens of thousands of professionals, it would be difficult to find even one person who meets the requirements.

Jiang Chen understood that to walk this path, one first needed a powerful soul. Before reaching level 70, one needed soul power comparable to that of someone at level 80 or higher.

Only when the soul is strong enough can one access the skill space and come into contact with the essence of skills.

Jiang Chen recalled Li Xueru and Hong Jishi's surprise and excitement when he awakened his skills. Although they knew the importance of the soul, they probably did not understand it as deeply as Antares.

Jiang Chen has now reached a new level, and he understands the close connection between the soul, skills, and the laws of heaven and earth.

He imagined using his soul power to enter the skill space without using skill scrolls, guiding out the points of light representing skills and introducing them into his soul.

As his soul energy grows, his level will also increase. When he reaches level 70 after unlocking his skills, he needs to resonate with a certain law of heaven and earth before he can officially begin his third reincarnation.

Jiang Chen pondered Antares's words, which seemed to echo in his mind, leading him to a completely new world.

"Guiding the light of skills into the soul is an indispensable preparatory step before the third job advancement," Antares continued, explaining the mysteries of job advancement.

"If the soul is not integrated with skills, it cannot resonate with the laws of heaven and earth." Antares' words made Jiang Chen understand the key to changing jobs even more clearly.

“Once you complete the third transformation, you will enter a completely new level. You need to constantly channel skills into your soul to enhance your power.” Antares’s voice was full of anticipation for Jiang Chen.

“Those relatively weaker professionals may only be able to infuse a few skills into their souls.” Antares shook his head slightly, seemingly not optimistic about their potential.

“And those who are slightly stronger can at least transfer five skills into their souls.” A hint of admiration flashed in Antares’s eyes, as if he could already see the future of those strong individuals.

“However, a true master is one who can integrate all skills into their soul.” Antares’s words were filled with longing and admiration for that realm.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen had a clear understanding. He knew that channeling skills into the soul was something only god-level powerhouses would do. And he himself was now trying to take this step before even reaching the third rank; the difficulty was unimaginable.

But Jiang Chen did not back down. He knew this was the only way to become the strongest. Once he succeeded, he would become an invincible powerhouse of his level, able to take on enemies over level 80 at level 70 even without relying on any talent.

However, when Antares mentioned even higher-level supreme beings, Jiang Chen was once again shocked. His eyes widened as he stared at Antares's head held high, his heart filled with curiosity and awe for the unknown world.

"Even if you transfer all the skill points to your soul, you'll only be at the level of a top-tier expert, far from being a true supreme expert."

Antares's words made Jiang Chen realize his own insignificance.

“A true supreme powerhouse can transfer their talent into their soul.” Antares’ words once again shocked Jiang Chen.

He had never heard of anyone being able to channel talent into their soul; it was something unheard of to him.
