560: Second awakening conditions

Wei Shi Alliance Headquarters.

Xiao Yuanliang looked at the empty building, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Even if there wasn't a meeting today, it was impossible for the headquarters to have no members present, right?

Normally, there were still more than a dozen people who frequently appeared at the headquarters.

With a slight feeling of confusion, Xiao Yuanliang walked to his area.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, his gaze looked outside the window.

Beneath the gray-white sky, rare October rain poured down.

Raindrops slid and rolled on the glass, and below, in the well-connected streets, there was an endless flow of traffic, speaking of the busyness and ordinariness of this World.

News of missing people appearing in various places had attracted attention throughout the Dragon Country and even globally some time ago.

However, by now, the officials who released those news reports seemed to have learned something deeper and no longer mentioned anything related to the missing person cases.

And the direction of the news had also returned to reports about civil disputes and the like.

The large-scale missing person cases had already shown a tendency to disappear from people's sight in less than a week.

Only Xiao Yuanliang and the other members of the Wei Shi Alliance understood.

The passages connecting the other World to their World had increased!

Compared to before, the concentration of spiritual energy in the air was clearly much thicker!

Xiao Yuanliang was seventy percent certain that there were Beast General level existences who had entered from the other World!

Now that the other party had not made a move, it was clearly observing the Human World in silence.

If they determined all the hidden strengths of the Human World, some of the more volatile Beast Generals would absolutely be likely to strike first!

If things really reached that point, Xiao Yuanliang couldn't think of any way to deal with it!

He had been constantly working on improving his Realm and strength.

However, he was only a third-order initial stage Talent now.

To contend with a Beast General, he would need to reach at least the late third-order to have the capital to fight above his level!

Even the late third-order might not be very reliable!

Having experienced the invasion of Strange Beast in his previous life, Xiao Yuanliang clearly understood that at the same Realm, Strange Beast were simply stronger than Humans!

After all, those Strange Beast had all Cultivated for decades, hundreds, or even thousands of years!

Whether it was their combat level, accumulated experience, or even physical strength, they were all sufficient to suppress Humans who had Cultivated in a hurry for a short time!

Among those of the same Realm, it was already considered good if Humans could defeat Strange Beast.

"Da da da ~"

The sound of rain hitting the window, like the rainy day in his memory, pulled Xiao Yuanliang's thoughts to a more distant place in his previous life.

That was a City.

A broken City in the rain.

In the ruined streets of that City, Xiao Yuanliang's hand holding the long sword was trembling uncontrollably due to his severe injuries!

Even with a slight movement, large amounts of blood would overflow, which even the rain couldn't wash away!

And opposite the Man, was a Mid-tier Beast General as huge as an elephant, with bull horns on its head, a ferocious face, and blood-red eyes!

"Bang!" As it slowly stepped forward, the Giant Beast's massive body caused the ground to tremble!

Countless shattered stones mixed with the rain were splashed, and Xiao Yuanliang's flowing blood added a striking touch to the gray and desolate rain.

"Hehe, very impressive strength."

The Giant Beast stopped in front of the Man, grinning ferociously.

On the face beneath those huge bull horns, a pair of eyes were calmly looking at Xiao Yuanliang's face, which was covered in the proliferation of death energy.

"You Humans are really working hard to become stronger. You, as you are now, should be in the Mid-tier of the Fourth-order in your Human strength classification, right? The strength you've displayed is indeed not bad."

"It's just that the Realm I correspond to is what you Humans call a Fifth-order Talent. How dare you challenge me?"

Speaking of this, the bull-headed Giant Beast shook off the rain on its body: "Actually, even a Fifth-order Talent is too weak in my eyes. Your so-called Talent abilities are too insubstantial."

"Although the spiritual energy intensity between a Fifth-order Talent and me is similar, the attack methods that Human Talents can mobilize are too weak."

"It's like two adults with similar strength, but I'm holding a broadsword, and you're holding a wooden knife."

"If you were to face a Beast Clan with a rare Bloodline, at the same Realm, you Humans would be holding daggers, while the rare Bloodline Beast Clan would be holding firearms."

"In a situation with no comparability, Humans should recognize themselves."

"Forget it, the dead don't need to know too much."

The Giant Beast said, and its huge hoof heavily struck down towards the Man on the ground!

And with this attack, the scene in Xiao Yuanliang's memory shattered like a mirror, coming to an abrupt halt.

Yes, in the same Realm, Human Talents were still at a disadvantage.

He had gathered 54 members of the Wei Shi Alliance, who were already the fifty-odd strongest Talents among Humans.

Even so, in Xiao Yuanliang's mind, the only way was to find Strange Beast that could be countered by elemental attributes and deal with them individually.

At the same Realm, if there were no innate Talent methods to counter them, there was really no way to deal with Strange Beast.

"If Human Talents could be stronger, it would be great."

This thought suddenly popped into Xiao Yuanliang's mind.

Just like the Beast General in his memory said.

Their Human Talent abilities were just wooden knives, while the attack methods of those Strange Beast were broadswords!

If Talent abilities could be strengthened a second time, wouldn't they transform from wooden knives to daggers? ordinary evolvers would at least have the ability to face Strange Beast of the same Realm directly!

"Secondary Awakening?"

A thought popped into his mind, and Xiao Yuanliang pondered for a moment.

This development path was not something no one had thought of.

In his previous life, there was a report that said the Talents Humans awakened were all evolved from the brain.

Because spiritual energy accumulated in the body, the brain had the priority right to mobilize spiritual energy; this was a subconscious behavior.

And it was also under the nourishment of spiritual energy that the brain would evolve the Talent ability belonging to Humans themselves.

However, in reality, all the organs that constitute the Human body could actually awaken different Talents under the nourishment of spiritual energy!

This was what scientists called Secondary Awakening.

However, this theory had never been confirmed.

The reason was that after the first Talent was born, all the spiritual energy absorbed by the body would be devoured and absorbed by this first Talent.

The Talent evolved from the brain inherently had the ability to mobilize spiritual energy.

It was simply impossible to lock spiritual energy in the body to stimulate the Talent abilities of other organs.

Even when a person was in a coma, if outsiders poured spiritual energy into their body, that spiritual energy would also gather towards the first Talent ability according to their subconscious.

Furthermore, activating the second Talent was much more difficult than the first.

Approaching the limit was one of the necessary conditions.

Unless two requirements were met.

1: A certain organ of the Talent was approaching its limit, producing a strong craving for spiritual energy.

2: A vast amount of spiritual energy or energy was instantly poured into the body! If the first Talent couldn't devour it all in a short time, the second organ could seize the time to devour the energy!

Only when these two requirements were met was there a possibility of activating the second Talent.

Unfortunately, these two points were difficult!

Approaching the limit of an organ could be achieved through medical means, but it was often an irreversible situation, and failure could even be life-threatening!

The second requirement was even more difficult. Spiritual energy entering the body was inherently like flowing water entering; even increasing the input would only change it from a stream to a river, while the second Talent required an explosive amount of spiritual energy!

And even if these two requirements were met, the success rate would not be very high.

The consequence of failure was irreversible damage to the second organ. Who could accept that?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yuanliang shook his head.

Regardless, this was still a way out.

Humans only summarized this information a long time after the Strange Beast invasion in his previous life.

Now he could also take this information and arrange for some people to start working on overcoming this problem.

However, the most important thing was to get those members of the Wei Shi Alliance to activate their Talents as soon as possible.

At this time, there was still a large portion who hadn't awakened their Talent abilities.
