I Can Add Points Infinitely - Chapter 44

Zhou Tian Star Banner, a formation-type celestial artifact. When deployed, it can instantly manifest a minimum of thirty-six command flags.

The number of flags increases with the user’s strength, progressing to 360, 3,600, 36,000, and so on…

The command flags combine to form the Zhou Tian Star Array, which integrates both offense and defense…

Shen Lian reviewed the description silently, gradually understanding its strengths and weaknesses.

The advantages and disadvantages of this celestial artifact were very clear.

The advantage is a one-time activation; once Shen Lian deploys the Zhou Tian Star Banner to form the array, there’s no further energy cost, and it can be controlled at will.

Hidden within the formation, the defense is incredibly strong, capable of withstanding attacks from enemies one major realm higher.

Even if the enemy breaks in, the formation’s offensive capabilities can shred them to pieces.

However, its disadvantage is significant: once the formation is set, it cannot move unless deactivated.

This means Shen Lian would also be trapped in place, unable to retreat even if reinforcements arrive for the enemy.

“This is decent for defending the sect, but not so great for solo combat,” Shen Lian muttered, shaking his head.

Given his current power, he could only manifest thirty-six flags at most, so he wasn’t too interested in this treasure for now.

He moved on to the next item.

Heaven-Origin Pills, which restore a massive amount of spiritual energy.

The system’s description was incredibly brief.

Shen Lian clicked his tongue, feeling at a loss. He wasn’t sure about the exact effects, and it wasn’t wise to test them carelessly since he only had three pills—too precious to waste.

After all, this was from a Gold-tier draw; the effects couldn’t be too disappointing, right?

He continued reading.

Seventy-Two Earth Fiend Transformations, a mid-tier Heaven-level celestial art that allows the user to change their form, transforming into anything from mountains and rivers to plants and trees.

“Heh… Isn’t this the Monkey King’s Seventy-Two Transformations? What a great find…” Shen Lian’s eyes lit up, and he instinctively tried to activate the technique.

He pictured the classic image of the Monkey King in his mind and tried to transform…

But nothing happened; he still looked the same.

“Huh? What’s going on?”

Shen Lian was stunned and tried again.

But no matter how many times he attempted, imagining different forms each time, nothing changed.

“This can’t be right. Did I get a fake Seventy-Two Transformations? Is the system messing with me?”

Completely baffled, Shen Lian checked the system panel again.

He located the Seventy-Two Transformations in his skill list.

He noticed a red lock icon next to it.

Clicking on it, a system message popped up.

【Due to insufficient physical strength, this technique is currently locked and unusable.】

“Damn it, is this some kind of joke?” Shen Lian sighed.

For the first time, he felt like he had wasted a Gold-tier ten-draw.

The items so far had impressive names, but their practical value was questionable.

Especially the Seventy-Two Transformations, which he couldn’t even use yet.

But there was no undo button; the draw was done, and skill points couldn’t be refunded.

He could only push forward and examine the next reward.

Demon Emperor Sword, rumored to be the ancient sword of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

The sword typically appeared as a three-inch bone needle, but it could change size at will, and the blade was made from unknown bones.

“The Eastern Emperor’s sword?”

With a thought, Shen Lian summoned the Demon Emperor Sword into his hand.

It looked like a bone needle inscribed with dense demonic runes, exuding a terrifyingly ferocious aura.

“It seems impressive.”

Shen Lian nodded, mentally commanding the sword to grow into a three-foot blade.

He channeled a small amount of spiritual energy into it.

Whoosh~~~

A light breeze seemed to blow, and the Demon Emperor Sword trembled slightly.

Instantly, the wooden tables and chairs nearby shattered into dust.

“Whoa!”

Shen Lian jumped back, quickly retracting his energy.

The Demon Emperor Sword quieted down.

“That… that’s insane…”

“Just a tiny bit of energy, and the sword’s natural pressure alone shattered the table?”

For the first time, Shen Lian’s eyes gleamed with satisfaction as he admired the Demon Emperor Sword.

“This is what I call a proper Gold-tier reward.”

Concerned about accidentally destroying his quiet room, Shen Lian retracted the Demon Emperor Sword into his body, placing it within his dantian for nurturing.

Next up was Revival Pills, renowned healing elixirs capable of bringing the dead back to life and regenerating bones. No matter how severe the injury, as long as there was a breath left, full recovery was possible.

The system’s description was equally brief.

But seeing its effects, Shen Lian valued them far more than the Heaven-Origin Pills—these were like holding an extra life in his hand.

Worthy of their reputation as miracle pills.

Following this was the Maha Golden Plume Armor, a celestial armor that automatically appeared on Shen Lian’s body, replacing his original lower-grade spiritual inner armor.

The armor’s protection covered the entire body, including the head.

Normally invisible, it only appeared when under attack.

The defense level was formidable—immune to attacks below the Transformation stage.

Above the Transformation stage, it reduced damage proportionally based on the enemy’s level, eventually losing effectiveness against vastly superior foes.

“This is more like it, a proper celestial artifact.”

Shen Lian was increasingly satisfied as he read on.

With the Maha Golden Plume Armor, his defense skyrocketed; against enemies below the Transformation stage, he was practically invincible.

The next item was the Thunderbolt Lightning Shuttle, similar in function to the Dragon Cable Cloud Piercing Boat, used primarily for travel and powered by spiritual energy or spirit stones.

Currently, Shen Lian had little use for it, so he moved on.

The subsequent reward was the low-tier Heaven-level celestial art Split Soul Technique, which, when mastered, allowed one to split their consciousness into thousands of parts, each capable of independently controlling a different artifact.

In essence, it enabled the user to multitask to an extreme degree.

During battles, while an opponent could control one weapon, Shen Lian could simultaneously control multiple.

It essentially turned one-versus-one battles into many-versus-one.

“Not bad at all.”

Shen Lian nodded, testing it briefly and finding that he could easily split his consciousness into over a dozen threads, each working seamlessly without interference.

For now, he didn’t fully grasp its potential impact on future battles.

Perspective often defines understanding; his current stage made it difficult to appreciate the full importance of this skill.

Finally, Shen Lian’s eyes landed on the last reward.

Heaven-Splitting Sword Technique!

Shen Lian’s eyes shone with excitement—this was the reward he had valued the most.

“Could it be that legendary sword technique?”

He murmured to himself, clicking on the technique’s description, which promptly appeared.

【High-tier Heaven-level sword technique: Heaven-Splitting Sword Technique: All things under heaven, nothing cannot be cut; whatever the eyes see, it can be cleaved; no enemy can survive even one sword!】

“This description… so full of grandeur!”

Shen Lian’s heart pounded in his chest.

He could barely contain himself; he desperately wanted to test the power of this sword technique.
