The human is devouring, a new talent every month.

Chapter 1 Lu Ming

On a desolate, snow-white planet, a fierce wind is howling.

White, icy-like sand swirled and danced wildly. Faintly, amidst this swirling sand, two figures darted about and collided with each other!

boom!

A blinding bolt of lightning suddenly pierced through the body of the burly, one-horned man in the blue battle robe.

As the blinding lightning dissipated, it coalesced into the figure of a short-haired young man clad in black battle armor. Beneath him, only icy dust swirled in the air, continuing to dance wildly in the wind!

"I've finally mastered the third move of the Eight Forms of Thunder Beast. Its power is indeed quite impressive." Lu Ming stood alone in the sky above the planet, a satisfied smile on his lips.

As per the requirements of that Thunder Lord, he mastered the third form of the "Eight Forms of Thunder Beast"—Tiger's Roar—in just a year and a half, thus fulfilling the other party's requirements for accepting him as a disciple. Moreover, it is estimated that the Golden Orchid Dojo will once again increase its investment in him.

"quit."

He silently uttered a word, and his figure slowly dissipated into this killing space.

Although this wasn't his first time entering the killing space, he still found it incredible every time he used it.

"After all, this place was created by that Primordial Ancestor..." Unfortunately, this place cannot completely replace the effects of life-and-death trials in the real world, otherwise it would be even more perfect.

As Lu Ming silently sighed to himself, he returned to the main hall of the killing arena. The others in the hall, upon seeing this seemingly not-so-tall black-eyed youth, all looked on with awe and apprehension.

Although they were also elite geniuses from the Jinlan Dojo headquarters, apart from a few individuals, no one dared to casually strike up a conversation with this person.

"The Beast" - Lu Ming! He is definitely one of the most outstanding geniuses to have appeared in the Jinlan Dojo in the past thousand years.

Although he was born into a small family established by a cosmic-level powerhouse in the mid-level civilization of the universe, the Black Rain Empire, he showed extraordinary talent for cultivation from a young age and was quickly valued by the higher-ups of the Golden Mist Dojo branch within the Black Rain Empire, and promoted to a top-tier elite genius.

Not long after that, he was selected to be one of the star-level "seed elites" of the entire Jinlan Universe Kingdom.

Even the senior executives of the Virtual Universe Company's branch stationed in Jinlan Universe had invited him to join the Virtual Universe Company directly, but he refused.

As for Lu Ming's reason for refusing, it was quite simple. It wasn't that he didn't want to join the Virtual Universe Company; he certainly understood the principle of benefiting from having a powerful backer. It was just that climbing the ranks step by step through a branch of the Virtual Universe Company in the Golden Mist Universe Country was too slow!

With his current level of ninth-rank Hengxing, barely reaching the threshold of the Lightning Origin Law, even if he joined the Virtual Universe Company headquarters now, he would still need to pass some tests to enter the Virtual Universe Company's core genius training system, and he would most likely have to start from the lowest level of the four secret realms, the 'Apocalypse' secret realm.

But if he waits until three years later, when the battle of the universe's most outstanding human geniuses officially begins... he will have the opportunity to leap over the dragon gate and ascend to the heavens in one step!

"To have a dazzling performance in the peak genius battle three years later, simply stepping into the threshold of the lightning origin law is not enough..." If we look at the entire universe, only the star-level geniuses who have crossed the threshold of the origin law can be considered true super geniuses of the same level.

However, to stand out and emerge victorious in the battle of the world's most outstanding human geniuses, this level of achievement is far from sufficient.

Of course, after he mastered the third form of the Thunder Beast Eight Styles, he was already able to easily crush the other geniuses of the same period in the Jinlan Dojo.

After all, the value of learning the third form of the Thunder Beast Eight Styles is no less than that of mastering the first form of the Nine Divine Weapons.

Mastering the third form of the Thunder Beast Eight Styles at the Hengxing level makes one virtually invincible among those of the same level and rank. Unfortunately, even such "invincible" figures are numerous in the peak genius battles.

To be honest, stepping into the threshold of the fundamental laws of lightning is not easy at all. Even with the blessing of the blue talent - [High-level Lightning Affinity], Lu Ming still spent nearly three years of hard work and training to barely achieve this step.

As for how quickly he mastered the first three forms of the Thunder Beast Eight Styles, it was because a year and a half ago he acquired a purple talent called [Heart of the Wild].

With this talent alone, his life is destined to be extraordinary!

Moreover, in the future he will acquire an even more powerful and incredible talent than [Heart of Wildness]!

……

As a transmigrator who descended from the mysterious blue planet to this world that devours the starry sky, Lu Ming awakened his unique cheat ability—[Infinite Talent]—as soon as he reached the planetary level!

The so-called "infinite talent" simply means that he can be blessed with various "talents." Specifically, he can gain a new "talent" on the 7th of every month. It is with the blessing of these "talents" that he, an ordinary Black-Eyed Clan member, was able to rise at a rocket-like speed to become a "seed elite" of the Golden Mist Dojo headquarters.

Based on the patterns that Lu Ming has summarized over the years, the talents he collects each month are actually of varying quality, which can be temporarily divided into white, yellow, blue, and purple, from low to high.

When Lu Ming had just broken through to the Planetary level, he obtained his first white talent called [Low Earth Affinity], which made him naturally more affinity for earth-attribute energy. When cultivating secret techniques with the corresponding characteristics, his progress was much faster than that of his peers in the clan.

In the following second and third months, he successively acquired a series of other white talents such as [Low-level Flame Affinity] and [Elementary-level Fist Technique Specialization].

Perhaps because the types of white talents are inherently limited, he inevitably acquired duplicate white talents over time. Then he discovered the second characteristic of 'talents'—'talent enhancement'!

"Talent Enhancement," also known as "Talent Stacking," simply means that whenever you acquire duplicate talents of the same type, all talents of that type will automatically stack together, resulting in a stronger effect. For example, if three white talents of the same type are stacked together, although they are still white talents, the "enhanced +2" white talents will be much stronger than their initial forms.

After being "enhanced" to a certain level, this talent can even be directly upgraded to a higher quality talent of the same type. Lu Ming currently has a yellow talent called "Intermediate Swordsmanship Specialization," which is how he obtained it.

Compared to the enhancement effect of white talents, the effect of yellow talents is obviously much stronger. After obtaining his first yellow talent, [Intermediate Fist Technique Specialization], his progress in practicing fist techniques was astonishingly fast. He easily surpassed the [Intent Level] and comprehended his own domain!

To comprehend a domain at the planetary level is undoubtedly incredible; even the cosmic-level ancestor of the Lu family couldn't believe it! However, this is just the beginning.

In the days that followed, Lu Ming acquired even higher-quality talents several more times, and his progress became increasingly astonishing. At just over twenty years old, he directly became a 'seed elite' at the Jinlan Dojo headquarters, and was entrusted with high hopes.

"Based on my previous guess, once I can successfully become Zhenlei Hou's disciple, I might be able to obtain another powerful talent..." Lu Ming recalled the 'timings' when he obtained 'high-quality' talents in the past, and couldn't help but feel eager anticipation.

Normally, most of the new talents he acquires each month are of white quality, with only occasional strokes of luck resulting in talents of higher quality than white. However, whenever a "major event" or "significant turning point" occurs in his life, the new talent he acquires the following month is invariably a high-quality talent!

His first yellow talent, [Intermediate Fist Mastery], and his first blue talent, [High Affinity for Lightning], both came from this.

Including the time a year and a half ago when I obtained the purple talent [Heart of the Wild], it was also because of my 'contact' with Zhen Lei Hou that I experienced another 'major event'.

If this happened only once, it could be considered a coincidence, but if it happens many times in a row, it can basically be assumed to be a characteristic of the [Infinite Talent].

It was precisely because he discovered this characteristic that Lu Ming paid even more attention to the Peak Genius Battle. Otherwise, relying solely on luck or constantly accumulating low-quality talents of the same type to upgrade and strengthen his talents, he didn't know how long he would have to wait to obtain a new high-quality talent.

"Being taken in as a disciple by an immortal powerhouse, I should at least get a new purple talent..." Just as Lu Ming was thinking this, a sudden email interrupted his thoughts.

The internal submission for the new book has been completed, so everyone can invest with confidence.
