Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

Chapter 300 299: Upgrades (2)

When Corey got a notification from the Universal System that his Perceptual Nexus Repository had been upgraded, Corey did not actually know how.

He didn't know what the difference would be nor did he think the difference would be something huge since the way the Universal System said it was in a way… bland.

The main thing Corey was curious about when he decided to come into his Library of Records was the Alchemy Anvil.

Since there was the word, alchemy in it, Corey was extremely curious about it and he wondered if the new installment could perform alchemy.

Surprisingly, it could!

The alchemy anvil could perform alchemy and concoct alchemical products for him!

This was an extremely useful ability for Corey and he was ecstatic about it.

Immensely so.

But this was not the reason for Corey's disbelief.

Unfortunately, even though the alchemy anvil could concoct alchemical products, he would still suffer a tribulation.

But the difference this time was that Corey could use the stars in this dark space to protect himself from the tribulation.

The stars were not just for show!

And they had their own uses!

Though, Corey did not have total control over all the stars, so he could not use all their abilities.

Heck, he didn't even know all their abilities.

Now.

This was also not the reason for Corey's disbelief.

Unfortunately, Nina told him that if he used the stars to protect himself from the tribulation.

He would catch the attention of the All-Father, the primogenitor of the Supreme Race.

And his fate would be worse than death.

Corey wanted to ask questions, but Nina told him not to ask any questions regarding the All-Father.

Asking about the Paragon Ancestor was fine.

But the All-Father?

That was a no, no.

Even though Corey could not use the stars to protect himself from the tribulation, he was still extremely pleased with the alchemy anvil.

Asides from concocting alchemical products, the alchemy anvil could also forge weapons and equipment on its own.

Not only could it forge weapons. It could also break down weapons to their base state.

That is, it could break down a weapon into the materials that was used to make it!

Corey could practically make any weapon he wanted and all he needed was materials and more knowledge.

He needed to know more weapons, their design, their composition and how to make them.

He needed knowledge!

The same went for the alchemical aspect of the alchemy anvil.

Corey also needed the materials and knowledge on various alchemical products.

But that was not a problem for him because he had a book of alchemy which was given to him by the Lord of Alchemy!

The Paragon Ancestor!

'I need to learn more about blacksmithing.'

Corey thought, then his eyes moved to the virtual reality room.

The main reason for Corey's disbelief.

The virtual reality room was the place where Corey gained combat experience.

It was the place that literally saved his life at the start of the apocalypse.

Corey had always been awed by the function of the virtual reality room.

But now, he was no longer awed.

But stupefied.

And why wouldn't he be?

When the virtual reality room basically gained a new function that would stupefy and cause envy and greed to surface even in the hearts of gods, demons, and monks alike.

The new function of the virtual reality room was heavily reliant on the stars in the dark space and was related to Corey's skills.

Corey could use a star to create a clone of himself which could only survive in the Perceptual Nexus Repository, and then assign a task to the clone.

The task could be anything, or almost anything.

After Corey assigns the task to the clone, the virtual reality room would create an environment that is suitable for the task of the clone, and the clone would continuously perform the task until perfection or until Corey tells it to stop.

This ability was usually meant for the practice of learnt skills and learning of new skills.

Sure, having a clone performing until perfection was good.

But how did this help Corey?

It was the clone that was practicing and learning the skills, not him.

So, how did this ability help Corey?

The next function of the virtual reality room was what made Corey have an expression of extreme disbelief.

Even at this instant, Corey could still not believe it.

Corey and the clone were basically the same entity. So, whatever actions performed by the clone, was also performed by Corey.

To make it easier to understand, the clone's actions were in a way done by Corey's subconsciousness.

Basically, Corey's mind was performing these actions… subconsciously.

And due to this, whenever Corey performed the same task that he assigned to a clone, it would be much much easier for him to perform.

And, it would be like he was remembering how to perform that task.

Take for example, assuming Corey gave a clone the task of practicing the Paragon Martial Arts to perfection, and the clone was able to increase its mastery over the skill to the transcendent level.

Whenever Corey fought using the Paragon Martial Arts, he would subconsciously remember how to improve the skill during the fight and the longer the fight goes on, the faster he would keep on remembering and the higher his skill mastery would go up until he reached the same level as the clone.

By the way, Corey does not need a fight to increase his skill mastery.

He could train and he would still remember the most efficient way to increase his skill mastery. Though, fighting made him remember much faster than training.

It was similar to muscle memory.

This ability was extremely shocking literally a cheat, and what made it much worse was that Corey was in a way lucky.

Corey could see countless stars all around him and in his eyes, that meant countless clones.

Normally, Corey should only be able to have access to two stars due to his low tier which meant he could only create two clones.

But due to the complete baptism of the Eye of God, Corey had access to over 60% of all the stars here.

And that 60% was a number Corey could not even count.

'Most likely in the tens of thousands or maybe a hundred thousand.' Corey thought.

Corey had access to more than ten thousand stars and that meant, Corey could create over ten thousand clones.

And that meant, Corey could create clones that will continuously practice all his clones!

It was a cheat!

A literal cheat.

Corey did not have to take the hard route in practicing and improving his skills, thereby taking his precious time.

He could be sleeping or doing something else and his mastery over his skills would continuously increase.

Corey could even create a clone that would continuously battle different sorts of enemies and that would make sure Corey's combat experience would continuously increase.

If this would not induce greed, envy and anger even in the hearts of gods, demons, monks, and most likely even saints.

Then Corey didn't know what would.

To make it worse, the virtual reality room had another ability that was literally heaven defying.

Corey could decide to sacrifice a clone to instantly learn all that the clone had mastered.

That means, if Corey badly needed to increase his mastery in a skill, he could decide to sacrifice a clone, which as a result sacrifices a star, and Corey would instantly attain the same level of mastery the clone had.

Although, the clones used his soul energy to continuously perform the skills, Corey had an abundance of soul energy and his soul energy regeneration rate was also high.

The virtual reality room was too much of a cheat.

Corey's breathing became slightly hurried and he realized that all the suffering he went through in the first tribulation of hell was worth it.

Extremely worth it.

For the first time in a long time, Corey was genuinely happy and proud of himself.
