Awakening：The Infinite Evolution of My Talent as a Low-Level Awakener

After leaving the Land of All Beings, Sterl remained in a meditative state. His understanding of swordsmanship was increasing at an astonishing pace, and a mysterious aura gradually rose from his body.

During his battle with the figure who wielded Swordsmanship Grandmaster Lv10, even though he used all his strength, he could only injure the opponent. As for defeating them—that was impossible. Combat wasn't like a game, and the concept of explosive power from novels and movies didn't exist.

The chasm between Swordsmanship Grandmaster and Swordsmanship Specialization couldn't be easily bridged.

However, under the immense pressure, combined with the swordsmanship soul remnants of Nightmare Overlord and his own enhanced comprehension, which had multiplied by hundreds of times, Sterl successfully broke through that barrier, pushing his technique abilities to the utmost limits.

At the same time, a series of strange insights flooded him, so compelling that he couldn't resist them. It felt like he had entered a mysterious world, where he saw a sword—a massive sword that reached through the heavens and the earth. Under its power, everything in the world seemed to be falling beneath its weight.

This feeling only lasted for a moment before shattering and dispersing. His thoughts were forcibly pulled back to reality.

Sterl slowly opened his eyes, looking around with some confusion.

At that moment, he was holding the Sword of the World. The ground around him was covered with dense sword marks, almost like a fine mesh screen.

Clearly, this was the damage caused by his instinctive actions during his breakthrough.

From these marks, it was apparent just how significant the increase was after his swordsmanship broke through its limits.

He put away the Sword of the World and opened his attribute panel. In the technique abilities section, he found his swordsmanship ability after its transformation.

[Swordsmanship Grandmaster (Technique · Passive, Lv5): Increases sword-type weapon attack power by 90%, nerve reflex speed +40%, dynamic vision ability +20%]

As expected, his swordsmanship rank had successfully broken through from Swordsmanship Specialization to Swordsmanship Grandmaster!

Even though it was only Lv5 Swordsmanship Grandmaster, the bonuses granted far exceeded those of Swordsmanship Specialization Lv60!

This showed that the rank and potential of Swordsmanship Grandmaster were far beyond what Swordsmanship Specialization could compare to. As for the previous Swordsmanship Mastery, it was nothing more than a mundane technique, weak and inadequate.

Although the heavy sword ability derived from Swordsmanship Specialization Lv30 had vanished, Sterl could still feel that he could use that ability. It had simply transitioned from an active skill to a passive one.

When he first obtained the Sword of the World, the sensation of swinging it had been almost the same as wielding a fire poker. It was just a simple use of the sword's inherent abilities.

However, now, just by gripping the hilt, Sterl could clearly feel the weight and resilience of the sword, as well as its sharpness, which was powerful enough to cut through most materials.

Even without the World's Blessing and Power of the Overlord abilities, the Sword of the World itself was no weaker than any other divine weapon.

Moreover, as he mastered more worlds, the quality of the Sword of the World would continue to improve, essentially becoming a unique, growth-oriented weapon that was exclusively his.

Sterl swung the sword, and the air let out a sharp whistle, especially when he focused his sword intent, causing a faint white light to appear on the edge of the blade.

"Once my swordsmanship improves a bit more, I might even be able to unleash sword energy," Sterl said with some anticipation.

The sword energy he referred to wasn't the typical battle technique ability used by warriors; it was an ability that could be wielded when one's swordsmanship reached a certain level.

This sword light had immense destructive power. Aside from physical strength, it wouldn't consume any energy, and the rank of the sword energy would increase with the improvement of swordsmanship.

In the future, he could easily unleash thousands of sword energies in an instant, seal space, and even shatter time and space with ease.

After mastering the leap in swordsmanship, Sterl put away the Sword of the World and looked at the attribute panel, focusing on the section for War Soul Resonance.

Earlier, he had spent the newly refreshed cheat points on War Soul Resonance. After more than ten rounds of evolution and enhancement, the potential of this powerful arcane skill had finally been fully developed, breaking through its previous limits.

Now, the War Soul Resonance arcane skill had completed its transformation, and its attributes had changed to:

[War Soul Resonance]

[Category: Arcane Skill]

[Description: The strongest arcane skill of the Nightmare Legion. Those who master War Soul Resonance can use soul resonance to awaken and ignite the fighting will and potential of soldiers deep within their hearts, significantly increasing their combat strength. The entire legion will act as one on the battlefield, unbreakable! Due to unknown influences, this ability has undergone a tremendous transformation, and its effects have surpassed their previous limits!]

[Effect:]

Immortal Battle Will:

Within the designated range, the morale of all soldiers in the legion will never collapse. Even when facing enemies multiple times their number, they will maintain high fighting spirit. At the same time, the soldiers' stamina recovery speed will increase dramatically, ignoring the effects of fatigue. When charging, all soldiers' morale will instantly reach maximum! They will fight until the last drop of blood! Lightning March:

The legion's marching speed is increased by 200%, while also ignoring any terrain effects. When encountering traps and formations, ancient battle souls will be gathered to crush everything! Furthermore, when charging and encountering the enemy, it will trigger the Anger of the Battle Soul, dealing damage to the enemy: Soldier Unit Count / 10,000. War Rhythm:

A mental resonance is established between the commander and the soldiers, turning the entire legion into a unified force. The soldiers will instantly understand and execute any tactical orders from the commander. Their coordination ability reaches perfection, allowing them to complete nearly impossible tactical maneuvers. Additionally, during battle, soldiers will automatically comprehend combination techniques as their battle experience grows. Moreover, when the soldiers' admiration for the commander reaches a fanatical level, there is a chance that, while in Rhythm, they will automatically master one of the commander's abilities!

(The power of this ability is related to the soldiers' own limit of endurance.) War Soul Awakening:

After activating War Soul Resonance, all units will enter the War Soul Awakeningstate. All attributes are increased by 70%, physical defense +5, stamina *50%, recovery speed *60%, and pain perception is reduced by 90% when injured. At the same time, all soldiers' potential is fully unlocked. They will be able to break through their limits and become stronger as the battle progresses, reaching up to 70% of the commander's overall strength. Once they reach their limits, the soldiers' potential will be exhausted. War Protection:

All soldiers in resonance state will generate a shield around their bodies. The shield's defense rank is increased by 5, and its durability is calculated as: (own vitality * defense rank * soldier count in the legion / 100,000). War Domain:

Once War Soul Resonancereaches its maximum limit, the commander can activate War Domain. Within the domain, enemy morale will be severely suppressed, and their movement speed will be reduced by 80%. Meanwhile, the attack speed of friendly soldiers will increase by 50%. In the domain, all spatial abilities and teleportation formations will be completely sealed, and no one can use any space-related powers until one side is completely Annihilated! Fury of the War Soul:

All units in your legion will have their regular attacks enhanced with effects like Rending, Armor Piercing, and Armor Breaking. These attacks can easily pierce through enemy armor, causing continuous bleeding damage and bone-crushing damage to enemies. Additionally, each attack will carry the power of the battle soul, dealing an extra 500 points of true damage per hit! War Soul Reincarnation:

When the soldier units reach their maximum capacity, and their morale is at MAX, the power of War Soul Reincarnationwill be activated. Upon attacking, it will absorb the enemy's soul, restoring 70% of the soldier's attack power. When a soldier unit dies, it will automatically absorb the battlefield's vitality and transform into a War Soul Blood Spirit! Ancient Behemoth:

Using the battle soul and vitality of all soldiers, awaken the Colossal War Beast, which has been resting in the space-time continuum. Once awakened, the Colossal War Beastwill fight for you for 300 seconds. The strength of the Colossal War Beastis related to the number of soldiers under your command.

(Note: This is the ultimate ability of War Soul Resonance. Due to the influence of an unknown force, once awakened, the Colossal War Beast will obey your orders without question!)

(The following abilities will awaken as the number of soldiers under your command reaches: 500, 1000, 3000, 10000, 100000, 1000000, 5 million, and 10 million.)

Looking at the War Soul Resonance arcane skill, now fully enhanced to its limits by the cheat, even though he had prepared himself for it, Sterl was still shocked by how powerful and broken this ability had become.

All the debuffs and limitations had disappeared. The effects of War Soul Resonance had increased from the original eight to nine, and the previous eight effects had also been significantly strengthened!

First, Immortal Battle Will: Once a charge is initiated, morale will instantly reach MAX. Even a defeated army with zero morale will, under Sterl's command, instantly transform into a fearless slaughter machine on the battlefield!

Next, the ability Lightning March: The marching speed has increased from 100% to 200%! This makes the legion's marching speed incredibly fast, like a ghostly presence on the battlefield, striking fear into the enemy. They would have no chance to escape or fight back. Additionally, the newly added Rage of the Battle Soul effect is simple yet brutal. If the number of soldiers reaches ten million, it will deal 1000 points of damage to the enemy!

Though this may seem like a small amount, it is a group damage effect! Furthermore, having even a slight amount of damage inflicted at the beginning of the battle will immediately place the enemy at a disadvantage!

Moreover, War Rhythm also has an absurdly powerful effect. There is now a certain chance that the soldiers under his command will inherit one of the commander's abilities!

The commander in this case is, of course, Sterl. And since the abilities Sterl possesses are all incredibly powerful, any soldier who inherits just one of them would experience a dramatic boost in combat strength!

It could be said that this effect has fundamentally changed War Rhythm and turned it into something entirely different!
