Su Bai's talent surpasses SSS level?!

I don't know how long it had been... on the streets of Jiangcheng.

A crisp System notification sounded in Su Bai's mind.

"~Ding, congratulations on successfully absorbing and comprehending 'Three Thousand Streams of Weak Water'!"

Su Bai was delighted and immediately checked its specific effects in his mind:

Name: Three Thousand Streams of Weak Water

Type: Special Skill

Rank: ???

Effect 1: [Water Without Form] Each time your attack hits a target, it will carry formless water, dealing 200% Law damage.

Effect 2: [Water Benefits All Things] A permanent Weak Water Domain will form within a 10-meter radius around you. Within this Domain, all physical and Spell damage you receive will be reduced by 25% to 50%.

Description: Please! Drink some water before you go~

(⋆ ꁏ ہ ꁏ ⋆)

This is truly amazing!

His attacks can now carry 200% Law damage!

Law damage!

A super true damage that is even stronger than true damage!

Because true damage generally ignores defense.

It is extremely powerful.

And Law damage is even more formidable!

Firstly, it is permanent!

Once a target takes Law damage, it is almost impossible to recover, except through healing skills that also possess the [Law] attribute!

In other words, it’s a permanent healing debuff.

Secondly, it can penetrate the body and directly attack the Soul!

However, this generally requires comprehending the Law to a profound level to be effective.

Finally, Law damage has another very important characteristic—

Only by possessing Law damage can one have the possibility of slaying gods!

Because no matter who it is, after reaching Rank 1000 and becoming an Emperor, they will grasp a complete Power of Law (Minor Thousand Worlds version~)!

Therefore, they all possess the Power of World Law for protection!

And because of this, any existence below a god, even a top-tier expert among the Ninth Rank, will have 99.99% of the damage they inflict on him reduced!

This means that if someone deals a trillion points of damage,

In reality, the opponent might only take a hundred million points of damage!

Even under the terrifying damage reduction of a Great Emperor Level Expert,

It would become a pitiful few tens of thousands of points of damage!

Compared to a Great Emperor's health bar, it's almost negligible!

But if one possesses the Power of Law... the situation is completely different!

Whatever damage is dealt, that's exactly how much damage will be taken!

There will be no reduction whatsoever.

However!

In reality, its general effect is not as significant as imagined.

Because Great Emperor Level Experts possess two special attributes—

Law damage amplification, and Law damage reduction!

Therefore, even if Su Bai currently possesses a tiny, faint trace of Weak Water Law, he cannot hope to inflict damage on a Great Emperor Level Expert!

His meager Power of Law... is almost non-existent to a Great Emperor.

It's just a beginner's stage, perhaps.

But that doesn't mean his Weak Water Law is completely useless... at least, it's still very effective against those of the Seventh or Eighth Rank!

..."Su Bai, are you done?"

At this moment, Emperor Tian Fu seemed to have sensed something first.

Seeing this, Empress Lin Yanshu's eyebrows subtly raised, and joy bloomed in her heart.

One must know,

this "Weak Water Divine Pill" was given to Su Bai by her!

If something went wrong... she would be the first to suffer!

But if the effect was good... hehe!

Perhaps Su Bai's mysterious female Revered Master would be pleased and help her Breakthrough to the Great Emperor Level, instantly becoming an expert above a god?!

It wasn't impossible!

Hearing this, Su Bai steadied his excited emotions and opened his eyes.

"Replying to Great Emperor, this junior has finished absorbing!"

After speaking, Su Bai's lips curled slightly upwards, and he waved his hand.

Then, in the eyes of Emperor Tian Fu and Empress Lin Yanshu, circles of grayish-white water-like light suddenly appeared around Su Bai.

They enveloped Su Bai, seemingly forming a defensive circle.

—This was precisely the trace of Weak Water Law that Su Bai had just acquired!

"This is... Weak Water Law?"

"You really obtained a Law?"

Emperor Tian Fu's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

Similarly, Lin Yanshu also wore a look of shock.

Of course, she knew that this Divine Pill contained the Power of Law!

—After all, this was something she personally added!

She cultivated the Water element, which evolved into the Weak Water Law after she became an Emperor!

But... Su Bai, a mere Third Rank newbie... could he actually absorb it?!

It was too incredible!

She had originally thought that the Power of Law within would be wasted!

After the two Great Emperors exchanged glances, both saw the shock in each other's eyes. Then, without saying anything, they nodded in perfect synchronicity.

They suddenly felt that Su Bai's Talent... might not be an SSS-rank Talent at all!

But rather an unknown Rank of Talent, one level higher!

That was a super SSS-Rank that even they had never seen!

They didn't even know what Rank it was called.

Others might not know, but how could they not?

The so-called Talent was merely the embryonic form of an Innate Law!

Generally,

the stronger the Innate Law, the higher the Rank of the Awakened Talent!

However, even an SSS-rank Talent Awakener couldn't forcibly absorb the Power of Law before the Eighth Rank, not even a tiny trace!

This was because before reaching Rank 1000, an Awakened One's own Innate Law (embryonic form), which is their Talent, had not yet fully formed.

Coupled with the fact that Su Bai's Innate Law was not of the water element.

So if he were to suddenly absorb a Power of Law at this time... then the result would be that the two Laws would repel each other, and the absorber's own Innate Law, in order to "exclude the outsider," would most likely choose to ignore it.

Then the Weak Water Law in the Medicinal Pill would be wasted.

But, in severe cases, it could lead to an explosion and death!

This was also why the two of them personally acted as Protectors for Su Bai just now.

They were afraid that if something went wrong, the Power of Law would run wild!

Lower-Rank Power of Law would be fine, perhaps it could be barely absorbed.

But!

This was the Weak Water Law!

This was a portion of the Weak Water Law that a top-tier SSS-rank Talent Awakener, a Great Emperor Level Expert—Lin Yanshu—separated after she became an Emperor!

Just think about it!

Everyone has a super powerful SSS-Rank Law... why should I be absorbed by you?!

Either live in peace, or fight for victory!

And one of the characteristics of the Weak Water Law is gentleness.

Coupled with Lin Yanshu's own goodwill.

Therefore, both Great Emperors felt that it would most likely be ignored.

In other words, it would be wasted.

But they never expected... the Weak Water Law to actually be absorbed by Su Bai!

Absorbed!

And so easily absorbed!

This indicates that—

Su Bai's Innate Law is far stronger than the SSS-Rank Weak Water Law!

Therefore, he most likely possesses an Talent that surpasses the SSS-Rank!

Tsk! An unknown Talent suspected to be stronger than SSS-Rank... it seems,

Su Bai has another secret!

No wonder he was favored by an expert of that Rank!

"Replying to Great Emperor, yes!"

Su Bai cupped his hands, looking at the two Great Emperors neither subserviently nor arrogantly.

"Good boy! You are very impressive!"

Emperor Tian Fu smiled and praised Su Bai.

After a pause, he continued:

"Su Bai, I have some other matters, so I shall take my leave first!"

After speaking, his figure flickered, instantly disappearing from his original spot.

"Su Bai, catch! This is my token. If you are in danger, crush it, and I will arrive within ten breaths! We shall meet again!"

With that, Empress Lin Yanshu threw a small, exquisite white jade token engraved with the character "Shu" towards Su Bai. Su Bai, seeing this, immediately caught it.

Before Su Bai could express his thanks, her figure flickered, and she too disappeared!

"Shu?... The legendary Water God... Lin Yanshu..."

Looking at the white jade token in his hand, Su Bai murmured to himself...
