In an instant, Daniel’s mind was flooded with the thoughts of countless beings.
Before this, he had experinted with using the Infinite Divine Temple to sense other people’s thoughts, but the clarity had never co close to what he was experiencing now.
What astonished him the most was that despite the sheer number of minds appearing in his head, he felt no discomfort at all.
By all prior experience, taking in so many streams of consciousness at once should have been unbearable, likely causing splitting headaches or worse due to the strain on his mind power.
But this skill—Psychic Perception—seed to completely bypass that limitation.
Not only that, but each thought was crystal clear to him. He could pinpoint exactly who was thinking what.
And it wasn’t just surface thoughts—he could sense even the subconscious undercurrents of the mind. A fleeting spark of inspiration, a passing emotion—nothing escaped Daniel’s awareness.
There was no denying it: Psychic Perception was overwhelmingly powerful.
Daniel even began to suspect that this might be similar to how gods themselves perceived the world—able to hear the intentions of vast numbers of followers simultaneously.
One thing was certain—among all demigod-tier beings, none could match him in information processing now.
Curious to test the limits, Daniel’s attention turned toward jir, the task officer in Winterhold Castle.
With a re thought, Daniel extended his ntal perception toward him.
jir didn’t even have ti to react before his body was taken over completely.
Daniel flexed this new control experintally—and found that he could even use skills through the target.
It seed the effects of Psychic Perception were not limited by level at all. The only factor was tier.
At present, he did not possess an official god-seat, yet he could still control any being without one.
Which raised a stunning possibility: once he beca a demigod, would that an he could control all demigods?
Up until he actually beca a god, every being of his tier or below could theoretically be seized and directed at will.
It was at this mont that Daniel truly grasped the terrifying potential of Psychic Perception.
Compared to it, the Eye of Insight suddenly felt like a child’s toy.
anwhile, the flood of thoughts continued to pour into his mind—good and bad, selfless and selfish, noble and malicious.
If this had happened in the past, the sheer chaos of so many wills striking his mind might have driven him insane.
But now, Daniel stood apart from it all, listening to the chorus of consciousness as if he were an observer watching from outside.
After a while, he drew his awareness back. A quick glance at the ti told him that nearly half an hour had passed since he had accepted his current quest.
His avatars had been working nonstop, and by now, they were almost done.
At his current efficiency, Daniel could clear an underground labyrinth in less than three seconds on average. In extre cases, he had even managed to finish one in a single second.
And now, as the last of his avatars stepped out of a labyrinth, the Reshaping Quest was finally complete.
Almost at the sa mont, Daniel’s figure appeared once more inside the Tower of Reshaping.
[Congratulations! You have completed the Reshaping Star Upgrade Quest]
[Reward is being issued...]
[You have obtained Talent Exclusive Skill: Unlimited Skill]
[Effect]: The skills you use will no longer be restricted by lee or ranged limitations.
lee skills can now be cast at range, dealing area damage.Ranged skills can now be used in lee, with their damage multiplied tenfold!
Daniel’s eyes widened in shock.
His thoughts instantly jumped to a skill that had been collecting dust in his repertoire for a long ti—Phantom Slash.
As his power grew and his opponents beca more dangerous, Phantom Slash had beco increasingly impractical. It was heavily restricted in use, so he had gradually abandoned it.
But the damage potential of Phantom Slash had always been impressive—it was simply a matter of opportunity.
Now, with Unlimited Skill, those restrictions were gone. The move had just been reborn as a devastating weapon in his arsenal.
Perhaps, Daniel thought, the Tower of Reshaping was even more valuable than he had ever imagined.
Far away, in so unknown realm, a black-feathered angel stood before a colossal stellar entity, communicating.
"According to the latest intelligence, the Emperor of Angels has been killed."
The enormous stellar body shifted slightly, its massive form covered in terrifying fractures, the entire surface appearing to burn with light and heat.
Upon hearing the angel’s ssage, the stellar responded with a wave of mind power.
"I know."
The angel tilted his head slightly.
"Apollo, you’re calr than I expected."
"You haven’t fully recovered yet, have you? It’s been four thousand years."
The Sun—Apollo—slowly rotated. But as he turned, the cracks on his surface seed only more severe.
"A stellar that violates the law pays a heavy price.
And my identity is not that of an ordinary stellar—I am the Sun."
Stellars were creations of the Supre Will. When one violated the divine laws set by the Will, punishnt was inevitable.
The stronger the stellar, the harsher the retribution.
For an ordinary stellar, breaking the law often ant certain death. For the Sun, the outco was even more absolute.
By all rights, Apollo should have been long dead.
The only reason he still existed was because Goddess of Gold & Silver Aurelia had intervened to save him, investing great effort to pull him back from the brink.
"You should be able to see it—my condition is already dire. Four thousand years ago, that damned Dark Star Jarvan devoured part of my body as well."
Apollo’s voice rumbled like solar flares.
"In two hours, you will have to return. Do not forget what you must truly do."
The black-winged angel nodded firmly.
"Rest assured, I know. My life cannot be saved, but I will hold my ground until the very last mont.
By the way—who exactly killed the Emperor of Angels?"
"It was Daniel."
At that na, the Sun shuddered visibly.
Even after four millennia, hearing it filled him with seething rage.
"Do not worry. One way or another, I will see that this cursed human is destroyed."
The angel rely shook his head.
"With all due respect, you may not be able to. Daniel is under the protection of the Luck Goddess—with her blessing, killing him will be... extrely difficult.
You need not focus too much on him. Your priority should be completing your most important mission."
With that, the angel raised his hand.
"Before you rise again, take in one last portion of divine corruption. This is the blessing of Her Excellency Aurelia."
