**Chapter 816: Third-Tier Soul, First Irrigation**
The talent world began to move away. Lin Muyu noticed that it wasn't shrinking or disappearing, but rather moving farther away.
The door to the talent world didn't close, and the tear he had made was still there.
The necromancer, which the system had manifested, didn't speak from beginning to end, merely looking at Lin Muyu for a few seconds.
Even "looking" was just a feeling.
The system, along with the talent world, flew deeper into this silent realm. Lin Muyu wanted to chase after it but ultimately didn't move.
He knew that the deeper regions were beyond his reach.
This was already the limit of what he could currently achieve.
If he went any deeper, his soul would get lost, severing all connections with his body. In such a case, even the [Comprehensive Rebirth] talent couldn't bring him back to life.
In those few silent seconds of "looking," Lin Muyu understood the meaning.
The system was telling him to find it.
Not now, but in the future.
"The system is pointing me in a direction."
Lin Muyu murmured, truly understanding.
The system taking the talent world away was actually giving him a direction.
In the future, he could find the right path through his talents.
There was always a connection between talents and their place of origin.
This faint connection would become the best guide.
Lin Muyu once again felt the goodwill brought by the system.
Without any words, this feeling was very clear.
From the depths of his soul, Lin Muyu knew that the system wouldn't harm him and had always been helping him.
At this moment, the talent world had completely disappeared.
Lin Muyu didn't hesitate any longer and turned to fly back to his soul world.
The closer he got to the soul world, the stronger the connection between his soul and body became.
The soul could find its direction and wouldn't get lost.
The purple light illuminated Lin Muyu's way home, and the third talent seed was thrown into the soul world.
The soul world shook violently again, turning into a sea of fire.
The shell of the soul world became thicker and more solid, and some impurities in Lin Muyu's soul were burned away.
The golden light covering his soul suddenly contracted, and the bronze helmet and iron armor disappeared, replaced by a layer of golden color.
On top of his soul, a layer of glass-like golden light was slowly flowing.
Golden glass, the symbol of a third-tier soul.
Antares looked very satisfied, "Little monster, do you know what this means?"
"A second-tier soul is the basic requirement to become a true god. All super gods strive to make their souls reach the second tier."
"And a third-tier soul is the condition to surpass true gods and become a god-king."
"Only with a third-tier soul can one hope to reach the god-king realm."
Lin Muyu had heard about the god-king realm from Antares more than once.
After true gods come god-kings.
Lin Muyu felt the different sensation brought by the third-tier soul.
The soul is composed of three parts: quality, level, and power.
The three parts complement each other and are indispensable.
Improving the quality can also enhance the level and power to some extent.
The third-tier soul pushed Lin Muyu's soul level forward again, making his soul power purer.
Lin Muyu opened his eyes and looked around his soul world, "So, I already have the qualifications to become a god-king."
"You should say that you have met one of the conditions."
Lin Muyu sincerely asked, "What are the other conditions?"
Antares, with a hint of mystery, said, "Do you really want to know?"
"Yes."
"But I still can't tell you."
"Is it fun to keep secrets?"
Lin Muyu didn't understand. At this point, why was Antares still hiding things?
Antares laughed and scolded, "You don't understand. What I know is the method for our dragon race to advance, which is completely different from your human race."
"If you follow our dragon race's method to advance and something goes wrong, who will be responsible?"
"Moreover, when you leave the small world, someone will naturally tell you, just like that woman who gave you the jade pendant. Didn't she say she would come to pick you up?"
"By then, you will know everything. There's no need to rush now."
"Just focus on solidifying your foundation now; it will make things easier in the future."
So that's how it was. No wonder Antares couldn't tell him.
Antares wasn't being stingy or playing games; it was to avoid affecting him.
"Sorry," Lin Muyu apologized to Antares for misunderstanding it.
Antares was magnanimous, "It's okay. Although I don't understand your human cultivation methods, I can tell you that no matter what method you use, it will always involve the soul and laws. This is the root of all races and won't differ much."
"Also, your human race has several cultivation methods. When the time comes, keep your eyes open and choose wisely. Don't choose the wrong one."
"Although all paths lead to the same destination, it's better to take fewer detours."
"Thank you!" Lin Muyu remembered all of Antares's words.
The soul world no longer shook violently, and the third talent flame had stabilized.
The three talents settled in the soul world, once again forming a triangular shape.
The three talents were independent but interconnected.
At the same time, their light shone on all the spell stars, establishing a special connection with them.
From body to soul, Lin Muyu's connection with his talents became even closer.
This change was very subtle, and if he hadn't reached the third-tier soul, it would have been hard to sense. The talents had been moved, and next was the irrigation.
Antares murmured, "Irrigating talents with a third-tier soul for the first time, unheard of."
Moving talents had to be completed before level 90, and how strong could a soul be before level 90?
Most people's souls were still at the first tier at that time, and even first-tier peaks were rare.
Occasionally, someone would reach the second tier.
Reaching the second-tier soul before level 90 already marked an absolute genius.
Such people were rare even in the great world.
As for someone like Lin Muyu, who reached the third-tier soul before level 90, it was unprecedented.
At least, Antares had never heard of it.
Moreover, Lin Muyu had moved all three talents, and all three were top-level talents.
Antares couldn't even estimate how far these three talents could grow.
Irrigating the soul didn't use soul power but the soul itself.
Using the split soul method, Lin Muyu split a strand of his soul and then sent it into the talent seed.
After being moved, the talents had become Lin Muyu's private property, completely imprinted with his mark.
At this point, they would no longer harm Lin Muyu.
The split soul smoothly entered one of the talent seeds and was quickly absorbed.
Lin Muyu continued to split his soul, sending strands into the talent seeds.
The first irrigation wasn't something that could be completed in a short time; it often took a long period.
Each person could only split a limited amount of soul each day. Once it reached a certain extent, they couldn't continue, or it would damage the main soul.
They had to wait for the soul to recover before continuing to split and irrigate.
Depending on the strength of the talent seeds and the quality of the soul, the time to complete the first irrigation varied for each person.
The higher the talent level, the longer the irrigation time.
The higher the soul quality, the shorter the time needed.
Normally, completing the irrigation of one seed in a few months to a year was considered normal.
Some even took two to three years to complete the first irrigation.
But for Lin Muyu, these limitations didn't exist.
The [Comprehensive Rebirth] talent wasn't just for show; its power had been fully demonstrated when converting skill stars into spell stars.
So, Lin Muyu began his unique operation.
Antares had been waiting for this moment, sharpening its claws again.
