On the shore of the island, in a small cave excavated by someone, Su Yuan sat cross-legged and then opened the system panel.


    "Su Yuan


    Level: Bronze Early Stage


    Soul Card: Azure Sky Phoenix


    ...


    Star Dust: 8280"


    A full 8280 points of Star Dust!


    "Finally, I have enough points for Entry-level Breathing + Transformation Realm Hellfire Summon + Transformation Realm Hellfire!"


    Looking at the almost ten thousand Star Dust on the system panel, a trace of excitement flashed in Su Yuan''s eyes.


    In about a week since landing on the island, he had already found a full 144 units of Red Fire Stone. The reason he hadn''t left yet was to gather enough Star Dust to max out all skills.


    Finally today, it was almost enough.


    Although it would have been best to collect some more Star Dust as a reserve, time was limited. His primary task was to break through to the Intermediate Stage as soon as possible.


    On Red Sand Flame Island, there was no support from the Soul-binding Divine Tree, and the cultivation time and environment were far from ideal. Efficiency naturally could not compare to being at the academy.


    "Now, it''s time to enjoy the thrill of power enhancement!"


    Suppressing his excitement, Su Yuan''s gaze fell on the "Breathing" section of the panel, and he called out: "System, open all Star Caves in the second Star Nest!"


    In an instant, 600 Star Dust was consumed. At the same time, six Star Caves near his right shoulder burst open one by one like popping beans!


    It''s not just for skills like Gray Flame Strike that require charging; almost all skills have casting times, such as Steel Flame Finger, Hardened Iron Skin, Wind Walking...


    Since the process of forming skills through Star Cards under the rule of Star Power takes time, the lower the casting time, the more fluid the skill release in battles, enhancing practical combat ability!


    For example, in a wave clash, if you finish charging earlier than your opponent, even if you don''t win immediately, you can suppress them.


    Another example, when exchanging skills, if the opponent can release four skills, you can release six or seven; the gap is evident.


    All sorts of benefits are numerous.


    Of course, the greater the casting time of a skill, the more beneficial Overload becomes.


    Currently, among Su Yuan''s skills, the one with the smallest casting time is Transformation Realm Instant Movement, only 0.1 seconds.


    This speed was negligible in itself, and even improving it by 30% wouldn''t make much difference.


    But for some high-cost charging skills, sealing skills, transformation skills, and Outer Path Skills that might require several seconds or even minutes to prepare, Overload''s effect was extremely noticeable.


    "Even at Entry-level, it has these two highly practical effects. The Breathing Method truly has infinite uses..."


    "Unfortunately, starting from the fifth Star Nest, it takes 1000 Star Dust to open one Star Cave. To break through the fifth and sixth Star Nests and advance the Breathing Method to Skilled Level, it will take a full twelve thousand Star Dust.


    It''s not particularly hard to achieve. I''ll hunt for a wave of Star Dust after breaking through to the Intermediate Stage!"


    Su Yuan felt anticipation in his heart, wondering what effects the Skilled Level Breathing Method would bring!


    "Next, it''s Hellfire Summon and Hellfire..."


    Without hesitation, Su Yuan commanded the system to enhance Hellfire Summon to the Transformation Realm.


    After the enhancement, the entire Hellfire panel, including the Six Dimensions and skills, remained the same. The only change was in the skill details of Rock Creation:


    "Rock Creation (blue): A Creation Technique that only Hellfire with outstanding talent can master. It can temporarily create blue-grade Demon Great Sword and Demon Armor using Hellfire deep rock as the main body and Evil Green Flames as energy!"@@@@
