Chapter 254: The Birth of the Luck Technique
Time flew by.
Beneath the calm surface, hidden currents stirred.
The beings in the entire star cluster remained unaware that a major change capable of overturning the structure of their star cluster was being born.
In the distant starry sky, another powerful entity, far beyond the limits of the star cluster, was on its way to their star cluster.
Milky Way, exile planet.
In the center of a self-contained island.
After spending six months and undergoing countless tests and adjustments, Yi Chen finally integrated his understanding of luck to successfully create the energy circulation pathways for the new skill.
The Luck Technique was officially born.
Its birth was exceptionally significant for Yi Chen.
Because this skill allowed him to indirectly take control of his own destiny.
With his current strength realm, he could at most qualify to leap out of the exile planet’s ecosystem.
However, in the presence of the laws of heaven, it was merely jumping from a small pond into a larger one.
He was still far from escaping the laws of heaven, let alone establishing the rules.
Yet, the Luck Technique would enable him to quickly become the fish most favored by the laws of heaven, no matter how big the pond was.
Yi Chen’s divine consciousness began to rapidly expand until it completely covered the entire island.
Next, he needed to test the effectiveness of the Luck Technique to see if any improvements were necessary.
In the Qi Sea, spirit power surged, continuously circulating according to the energy circulation pathways of the Luck Technique.
A vast white aura of luck poured toward his body like a swirling mist.
Once these white auras entered his body, they quickly dove into the endless Qi Sea.
In the Qi Sea, they formed a dense white aura cluster.
As luck continuously surged in, the white aura cluster also grew larger and became denser.
With a thought, on the island, countless birds, beasts, and fierce beasts began to show strands of colored luck gathering towards Yi Chen.
Ordinary birds, beasts, insects, and fish remained indifferent.
However, a few fierce beasts over level fifty subtly displayed signs of unease.
Yet, they did not know the source of their discomfort.
Yi Chen slightly adjusted the operation of the Luck Technique.
The luck flowing from all directions, from birds, beasts, and fierce beasts, vanished without a trace.
But in the Qi Sea, luck continued to flow in.
The fierce beasts over level fifty returned to normal as if nothing had happened.
However, their luck was still gathering toward Yi Chen.
Yi Chen then halted the operation of the Luck Technique.
The Luck Technique is divided into two parts: upper and lower.
The upper part focuses on extracting and stripping luck.
It can directly draw luck from the laws of heaven and earth, as well as strip luck from other beings and extract it.
Additionally, it can silently and completely extract and strip luck from the laws of heaven and earth or other beings.
However, this does slow down the process significantly.
The lower part deals with the application of luck.
It allows the obtained luck to merge into one’s own luck or be used directly.
It is similar to receiving a sum of money and deciding whether to save it or spend it immediately.
The recent test showed satisfactory results, and no flaws or necessary improvements were discovered for now.
The only issue lies in the fierce beasts on the island, which are not particularly strong and have poor perception ability.
Yi Chen’s gaze turned toward Bai Ruo Xin.
Bai Ruo Xin’s strength realm also wasn’t very strong.
However, her divine consciousness matched the perception ability of top fierce beasts.
The Luck Technique began to operate again.
Silently and without a trace.
Not far away, Bai Ruo Xin continued her meditative training.
Her delicate and beautiful face showed no signs of change.
Her divine consciousness also failed to detect anything amiss.
In contrast, Yi Chen felt his spirit power continuously depleting in the Qi Sea.
Yet, there were no energy fluctuations outside.
At the same time, a stream of purple luck flowed continuously into his body and gathered in the Qi Sea.
Yi Chen once again interrupted the Luck Technique and felt at ease.
Since Bai Ruo Xin’s divine consciousness couldn’t sense that his luck was being drawn away, it basically proved that the Luck Technique had no flaws in its silent extraction.
As for whether it could work against more powerful enemies, there were no suitable test subjects available at the moment, so it would have to wait for later.
Next came the application of luck.
Yi Chen first activated the Luck Technique to return Bai Ruo Xin’s purple luck.
This wasn’t an application of luck, just the reversed operation of the Luck Technique.
By operating the Luck Technique, he could draw and strip luck from the laws of heaven and earth and other beings, and by running it in reverse with slight adjustments, he could also deliver luck back to them.
After returning Bai Ruo Xin’s purple luck,
Yi Chen’s Qi Sea was once again filled with a massive and refined white aura cluster.
Surrounding the white aura cluster were small amounts of luck in other colors.
The lower part of the Luck Technique was activated.
The luck cluster in the Qi Sea split into two parts.
One part began to spread, merging into his body and gradually integrating with his own luck.
The other part suddenly vanished, consumed by the Luck Technique.
The whole island remained calm and peaceful, seemingly unaffected.
Yi Chen was somewhat surprised.
Using the Luck Technique to consume luck should, in theory, yield results that slowly become apparent, even if they do not show immediately.
Yet, there was no change on the entire island.
Could it be that the changes occurred in an area beyond his divine consciousness’s reach?
Yi Chen considered waiting a bit longer.
Even if the Luck Technique had flaws, it shouldn’t yield no response at all.
As he suspected, outside of his divine consciousness’s range, in the eastern part of the island, deep in the ocean, two marine fierce beasts were locked in a fierce battle.
One was a blue giant whale, and the other was a golden shark.
The blue giant whale, while not much stronger, clearly had the upper hand.
Soon, the victor became clear.
With a water arrow, the blue giant whale pierced the body of the golden shark.
The golden shark, now heavily injured, attempted to escape.
Even though its injuries severely slowed it down, it was still much faster than the blue giant whale.
The distance between them continued to widen.
To completely shake off the blue giant whale and prevent it from tracking, the golden shark gritted its teeth, leaping from the ocean floor and jumping onto the island.
In an instant, the whole island was thrown into chaos, as various fierce beasts sensed the presence of the golden shark—some frantically fled.
Others charged at the golden shark.
Despite the golden shark’s immense presence, it was clearly in a weakened state, and its injuries were unmistakable.
Some fierce beasts, seeking an opportunity, decided to take a gamble.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The golden shark, relying on its great strength, continued to wreak havoc despite being heavily injured on land.
Finally, it collapsed in the center of the island due to its severe injuries.
The fierce beasts surrounding it, attempting to take their chances, met the same fate.
They were left with no survivors, almost annihilated together.
“…”
Inside the flying treasure, Yi Chen was at a loss for words.
Indeed, the consumed luck wasn’t wasted.
There would certainly be benefits, though they might arrive late.
As long as the luck was powerful enough, while one stayed at home, the benefits would still come knocking.
Yet, a marine fierce beast’s body and a few other low to medium-level fierce beasts held little value in Yi Chen’s eyes.
He even felt a bit lazy to collect them.
However, compared to the consumed luck, the payoff was still quite good.
After all, he only spent a few minutes using the Luck Technique to extract luck from the laws of heaven and the island’s fierce beasts.
Half of the extracted luck even merged into his own.
Not to mention, he had just begun to create the Luck Technique.
With the improvement of his strength realm, there would be tremendous room for enhancement and upgrades in the future.
