Within the boundless expanse of the universe, much is submerged and covered by darkness,
Only a few scattered stars shine brightly, adding a touch of vitality to this endless, cold, and lonely void.
Chen Luo couldn't quite understand why his consciousness, pulled into the vortex where this panel appeared, was now seeing outer space.
Just as Chen Luo was pondering in confusion, the stars in the sky suddenly began to twinkle,
Every star visible to the naked eye was, billions of light-years away, a brilliantly radiant star.
And at this moment, these countless stars suddenly lit up.
Light that spanned space and time suddenly shot towards the wisp of Chen Luo's spirit that had entered.
Boom!
Immeasurable information, along with the light, surged into Chen Luo's spirit.
Chen Luo now had a slight understanding: these countless stars were, in essence, each a racial heritage-level skill!
This light was a manifestation of the might of racial heritage-level skills!
[Skill Extraction in Progress...]
Under the impact of the massive information, Chen Luo had to shield his spirit from further thought, relying only on instinct to cope with the starlight that filled the sky.
Whether it was an eternity or an instant, when the starlight subsided and the seemingly endless torrent of information receded like a tide,
Before Chen Luo's wisp of spirit, the cosmic space had quietly vanished.
The surrounding darkness had receded, and Chen Luo's wisp of spirit appeared in a small, pure white room.
And before this wisp of spirit, a golden orb emitting an aura of immortality and indestructibility floated quietly.
[Skill Extraction Successful!]
Buzz!
The orb flashed instantly, merging into Chen Luo's wisp of spirit.
The moment the orb fused, Chen Luo's wisp of spirit was instantly expelled from the mental panel, and the scene before Chen Luo's eyes completely returned to normal.
In his sea of consciousness, above the golden dragon eyes that resembled a great sun, at an extremely high point in his spiritual sea, a golden dot radiating an immortal aura floated quietly.
[Congratulations on obtaining the racial heritage-level skill "Realm of the Square Inch"!]
[Realm of the Square Inch]
[Type]: Skill
[Level]: Racial Heritage
[Effects]:
1. Kingdom on Earth: Based on the current territory level, all Starfire City members' racial values +2. (When the territory is upgraded to a kingdom, individual strengthening can be performed.)
2. Boundless Reach: Upon activation, the player can return to any location within their territory at any time, and can also return to a previous location at any time. This movement cannot be blocked by any effect below the racial heritage level.
3. Uplift the Divine Kingdom: With supreme might, forge your own divine kingdom! (Not a faith-based power!)
[Description]: He walks upon the earth as if walking in his own kingdom.
....
The moment Chen Luo obtained "Realm of the Square Inch," the people in the distant Starfire Plaza all froze. New prompts sounded in their ears.
[As a member of your Starfire City, you have received a skill bonus from Lord Chen Luo, your racial value +2]
All professionals who had already entered Tier One were overjoyed upon seeing the message.
It was known that the base racial value for humans was only 0.7, and after advancing to Tier One, it would only reach 1.
With an increase of 2 racial points, although still not comparable to the base value of the Undead race, it was enough to significantly boost the strength of these individuals.
Amidst the cheers of the crowd, Su Xiao and several other hidden professionals looked on with surprise. This was the first time they had experienced the feeling of power surging after an increase in racial value.
With the racial value bonus, combined with the talents and skills of their hidden professions, they all stepped into the combat power rating of Zero-Tier Lord.
As per Chen Luo's request, the legion commanders had not entered Tier One, because at Zero-Tier, the higher the combat power rating, the greater the benefits obtained after a life leap.
For ordinary members, Chen Luo had no such requirement, but for the legion commanders, the stronger their growth, the better.
As the territory continued to expand, Chen Luo would certainly not be able to personally handle everything.
Previously, Chen Luo had been troubled by his inability to help them improve their strength effectively, but now, with "Realm of the Square Inch," this problem could also be solved.
The effect of "Kingdom on Earth" grew continuously with the territory's level. Currently, it was a universal bonus,
And according to the skill information, as long as Chen Luo upgraded the territory once more, he could perform individual strengthening on members, helping them to better improve their strength.
[Starfire City]
[Level]: Great City
[Area]: Five thousand square kilometers
[Population Capacity]: Ten million
Chen Luo also enjoyed the bonus of "Kingdom on Earth," but compared to his already high racial value of 50, these two points were merely a negligible addition.
The second effect of "Realm of the Square Inch," "Boundless Reach," simply put, gave Chen Luo a teleportation ability with limitations.
Upon use, Chen Luo could move freely within the territory.
At the same time, if Chen Luo was outside the territory, for example, in the Imperial Capital, or sealed in some inexplicable place by others, he could use this skill to teleport back and forth.
This was the skill effect that Chen Luo found easiest to use directly among the three effects.
As for the last effect.
Chen Luo looked at the "Uplift the Divine Kingdom" effect with some hesitation. As the skill was acquired, a massive amount of skill information also flooded into Chen Luo's mind.
This effect was the core effect of the entire "Realm of the Square Inch."
If it were a faith system, in myths and legends, gods of faith would use the power of faith to recreate the universe outside the material world.
This would give their believers a spiritual resting place after death.
This was the "Uplift the Divine Kingdom" of the faith system.
However, this effect of "Realm of the Square Inch" was somewhat different.
This skill required the user to possess immense power,
To contain vast mountains and rivers within a square inch, transforming them into a portable kingdom.
In a sense, this was already a mythical ability.
"Can this effect truly be realized?" Sitting at the conference table, Chen Luo murmured in surprise.
Driven by his curiosity, Chen Luo, following the skill infusion, began to activate the "Realm of the Square Inch" skill in the skill void opened by the system,
Following a specific trajectory.
Buzz!
The moment the skill was activated, Chen Luo felt as if a black hole had appeared within him.
The terrifying suction instantly absorbed all the blood and spiritual energy within him.
The subsequent energy that was generated was absorbed as soon as it recovered.
Chen Luo's face instantly turned pale, as if he had stayed up for ten days and ten nights, and had been rewarded ten times over.
Feeling his body empty, Chen Luo gritted his teeth and continued to inject the recovering mana into the void.
After a while, Chen Luo, pale and swaying precariously,
Felt the progress of the skill in the void with disbelief.
