With the comprehension bonus brought about by the Black Book materialized from the Death God's Godhead, Bai Xiaowen only spent less than a year in the spatial passage to successfully train his commonly used skills such as Displacement Transposition, Primordial Lightning, Sword Seal, Seven Evils Palm, Seven Flashes, and Invisible Blade to the Proficient Level.
At the mastery level, the skills were not only faster to use and consumed less energy, but they also had new special effects.
Even skills like Primordial Lightning had been upgraded to an advanced level.
While the skills were upgraded, the specializations were upgraded as well. Specializations like Close Combat, Shooting, Fire, and Lightning were all upgraded to the Expert level.
At the very least, Bai Xiaowen would no longer be suppressed by the Spiritual World's Combat Specialization when fighting against them.
However, the two specializations of Swordsmanship and Spiritual Energy Mastery did not upgrade to the Master level. Instead, they were stuck at the threshold of Expert level 5.
At first, Bai Xiaowen thought that it was because he was distracted. After upgrading the other specializations to the Expert level, he focused on these two specializations. He imagined a clone that specialized in Swordsmanship and a clone that specialized in Spiritual Energy Mastery in a duel.
However, this did not have any effect. He had no idea how to reach the Master level.
Bai Xiaowen temporarily put aside Swordsmanship and tried to upgrade Spiritual Energy Mastery alone. After a few months of hard work, he still had no results. Later, he changed the direction of his efforts to Swordsmanship, but he still could not make a breakthrough.
To be honest, this was a psychological blow to Bai Xiaowen.
Ever since he stepped into the Awakened realm, he had been a super genius. Whether it was his Combat Specialization as an Awakened or his Combat Specialization as an Evolver, as long as he put in the effort to train, he would improve. This was the first time he had encountered a situation where he had no clue and was at a loss.
Fortunately, this psychological blow did not last for too long. Bai Xiaowen had suffered more than one or two blows when he was in the Soul Split state (before he transmigrated). He was not like other super geniuses who could not withstand setbacks and began to doubt themselves.
"Maybe it's just as Mr. Xia Feng said. People who are too smart and have too many thoughts won't be able to push their combat mastery to a higher level."
Bai Xiaowen silently thought of an alternative strategy. He believed that in the Land of Origin, there would be many people who had reached Master or even Grandmaster Combat Mastery. How Bai Xiaowen could utilize his own advantages to contend with these experts would determine the outcome of this trip.
Would he be the only successful one, or would he be the denominator of a large number of failures?
…
Three years and two months passed in a flash.
At the exit of the spatial passage.
The Silver Throne shot out, and the spatial passage behind it instantly closed and disappeared into nothingness.
On the throne, Bai Xiaowen sat cross-legged like a statue with his eyes closed. After leaving the space tunnel, the "statue" slowly opened its eyes.
The trace of confusion slowly disappeared, and Bai Xiaowen's eyes became sharp again.
"We're already here. This journey is really long … Hiss!"
Bai Xiaowen suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at everything in front of him.
This was a vast Star Sector. In the starry sky before him, there were countless large and small planets, rumbling and rumbling as they moved.
However, these planets were a little too close to each other. It made him very worried that they would collide while they were moving …
Bai Xiaowen felt that this idea of his was very well-founded. The evidence was that in this Star Sector, there were many small and fragmented meteorite belts. These small meteorite belts were very likely the result of collisions between celestial bodies.
From afar, the Star Sector seemed to be covered in a layer of dust and fog.
Many planets would collide into small meteorite belts when they were moving, bringing about a meteor shower. When larger meteorites collided, the surface of the planet would immediately burst into flames. It was unknown whether or not this was a volcanic eruption caused by the collision of the meteorites.
"The appearance of a meteor shower means that these planets have atmospheres … Then what about our exploration? Don't tell me we have to land on these planets and take the risk of the planets collapsing at any time to search for the so-called treasure? "
Bai Xiaowen's brows furrowed tightly. Even evolvers, whose survival ability far exceeded that of ordinary people, were extremely dangerous in the face of the natural disaster caused by the "asteroid collision" and the volcanic eruption of the apocalyptic volcano. They could not stay for long.
If an evolver was on the surface of the planet when the planet collided and exploded, he would almost certainly not be able to survive.
Not to mention escape methods such as teleportation, flash, or escape talismans. Compared to the huge diameter of the planet, the escape distance was simply not enough. So what if he had the Thousand Mile Escape Talisman? He would still be involved in the explosion range.
Bai Xiaowen looked around, wanting to find Xia Feng, Qiao Liqun, and the others.
Logically speaking, the time taken for space travel was the same. Everyone would arrive at the Land of Origin after three years and two months. They should have arrived by now.
However, Bai Xiaowen was the only one there. Not even a shadow of a ghost could be seen.
This was also very normal. This Star Field was so big, and it was so far away from the starting point. The slightest spatial misalignment would cause two people who set off at the same time to be separated by tens of millions of kilometers.
Just as Bai Xiaowen did not know where to start, his sleeve suddenly moved. The ticket flickered and floated in front of him, slowly burning.
This scene was very strange. It was clearly an environment that was close to a vacuum, but the ticket could still burn. However, under the rules of the spiritual realm, there were many things that were unscientific. This was not one of them.
Following the flames, a mechanical and rigid voice sounded.
"Evolver, welcome to my place of slumber."
"You have no way out. You have to join this game. Choose a planet in the periphery of the starting point. The last remaining power of the ticket will bring you to that planet."
"You have to find the correct planet's teleportation gate and go in layer by layer until you find the main hub."
"There, you will get everything you want."
"Of course, it's not impossible if you want to quit. If you are lucky enough, you can find the way back. However, such behavior of desertion will definitely be punished. Erasing this memory is the most gentle method. "
"Now, let's begin your choice!"
Bai Xiaowen felt a little out of place. This kind of mechanical and emotionless voice read out a sentence that was full of emotions.
However, now was not the time to care about this. Bai Xiaowen looked at the burning embers of the ticket. He did not want to wait for the remaining power of the ticket to dissipate and rely on himself to fly there.
The planet in front of him looked close, but in fact, it was millions of kilometers away. Even if he did not die of exhaustion by flying there, it would be too late.
