159: It was—a dazzling gold color!

Good heavens!

He knew that after he had taken the initiative to ask for silver this time, those two Martial Saint-level existences, Old Ancestor Yan Hui and the Old Ancestor of the Wanlong Chamber of Commerce, wouldn't be stingy.

However, he hadn't expected these two Martial Saint-level Old Ancestors to be quite this generous!

450 billion taels of silver—this was enough for him to evolve his talent twice, whereas his previous thought was that he would be perfectly satisfied if he could just get enough silver to evolve his talent once.

And now, it had actually doubled his expectations; how could Lin Yi not be excited?

"Whew!"

Thinking of this, Lin Yi first let out a long breath to calm his excitement before saying to Gu Changsheng:

"I am truly grateful to Old Ancestor Yan Hui and that Old Ancestor from the Wanlong Chamber of Commerce this time. Lin Yi will surely remember their great kindness for the rest of his life."

"Additionally, thank you, Sect Master, for all your hard work on my behalf. If I achieve success in the future, I will certainly do my utmost to help you as well."

"Haha, Lin Yi, you're being too polite with me."

Gu Changsheng shook his head with a faint smile:

"You are the greatest Genius in the history of our Heavenly Mountain Sect. It is only natural for me to do my best to help you; I never even thought about whether you'd repay me or not."

"Alright! Since the Silver Notes have been delivered, you can handle them yourself! I'll be going now."

"Yes! Thank you, Sect Master."

Hearing this, Lin Yi cupped his hands to Gu Changsheng once more. He didn't rush to absorb the Silver Notes immediately; instead, he waited until everyone had moved all the notes into the basement before tightly closing the door. Looking at the basement full of Silver Notes, he finally commanded the attribute panel in his mind:

"attribute panel, charge!"

"Whoosh!"

As soon as Lin Yi finished speaking, the massive amount of Silver Notes in boxes before his eyes instantly evaporated completely.

Immediately after, the numbers in the charging column of the attribute panel began to skyrocket!

0.6%!

30.6%!

80%!

150%!

200%

...The numbers in the charging column of the attribute panel soared rapidly until they finally stopped at 208.73% in one breath.

Then... "Whoosh~~~"

Within his Sea of Consciousness, the incredibly transparent attribute panel changed once again, instantly transforming from lines of text into a vast and immense Starry Sky Scroll.

On the entire scroll, the cyan stars had now completely vanished, having fully exited the stage of history.

Only purple and gold stars flickered on the scroll, each emitting an incomparably brilliant and dazzling radiance.

Among them, the proportion of purple stars had shrunk by 5% compared to last time, leaving only around 90% or 91%.

As for the gold stars, they had increased by six or seven percentage points in one go, reaching a terrifying level of nearly 10%.

"10%!"

Seeing this, Lin Yi's eyes immediately flashed with an endless sharp light.

A 10% chance to evolve a brilliant gold rank talent—this probability was already considered not low.

Moreover, even if it didn't evolve this time, he still had another chance, and the next chance would be even greater.

In short, the advantage is mine!

Thoughts swirled in Lin Yi's mind, while on the other side, atop the vast Starry Sky Scroll—

"Whiz!"

An incomparably brilliant star suddenly fell at this moment. Its color, unsurprisingly, was once again—Mystic Purple!

"Congratulations, Dao Lord. This talent evolution was successful. You have obtained a mystic purple rank talent—King of Battle!"

——————

"Congratulations, Dao Lord. This talent evolution was successful. You have obtained a mystic purple rank talent—King of Battle!"

——————

[Talent: King of Battle]

[Rank: mystic purple rank]

[Description: A heart clear for battle, laws and principles understood naturally, born for combat, never ceasing until death!

You are a natural, peerless Prodigy of the path of battle; you are born with...]

——————

"King of Battle!"

Seeing this talent in his Sea of Consciousness, Lin Yi was overjoyed.

A Battle-type talent—he had finally managed to evolve one.

This way, the probability of evolving a useful talent next time would be even higher.

Because regardless of whether he evolved a Battle-type talent or a Saber-path talent next, he would be able to synthesize a Half-Step Brilliant Gold Grade talent.

And as for brilliant gold rank talents of these two major categories, no matter which one it was, the help it would provide him would be immense.

As for a brilliant gold rank talent, that goes without saying; regardless of the type, it would definitely be terrifyingly powerful!

"Continue!"

Filled with anticipation, Lin Yi looked up at the Starry Sky Scroll once more.

Within his Sea of Consciousness, the attribute panel slowly unfurled again. The lines of text describing "King of Battle" quickly transformed into an infinite number of brilliant stars.

This time, although there were still two colors of stars flickering on the Starry Sky Scroll, the proportions of the two types of stars had changed once again compared to the last time.

Especially the gold stars, their proportion had reached... "20%!"

"This time, the gold stars actually surged by so much? Could it be that I really have a chance to evolve a brilliant gold rank talent this time?"

Seeing this, Lin Yi murmured softly, his eyes fixed intently on the brilliant gold stars.

Until—

"Whiz!"

On the Starry Sky Scroll, a star suddenly fell once more.

And that color was actually—Brilliant Gold!
