Infinite Potential System

The Life Element was one of the most harmless Elements to upgrade. While it was only a Rare Element, William found that the Life Element was incredibly invaluable and served as a second source of self-recovery without any side effects.

As the upgrades commenced from SS-Rank to the next, William noticed that his natural healing ability had increased once more. The Recovery Talent made it extremely obvious, since multiplying any effect by three hundred times was bound to have an impact.

He pulled out his Abyssal Weapon Shifter and transformed it into a sharp dagger, then used his Weapons Master Talent to locate a weak point in his suppressed skin. With the combined effects of his Fitness Talent and the sharpness of the weapon, William created the largest cut he could manage, crossing from one end of his left arm to another.

As the blade's tip split the skin on his arm, William saw the cut healing instantaneously, directly behind the weapon. No matter how hard he tried, the cut wouldn't extend to more than half an inch in length.

With greater healing power comes greater effects on my cells normally, but since the Life Element is using Magic, I can avoid this side effect all together! I need to figure out how to work this into the Recovery Talent...

With the Life Element's upgrade, William immediately opened the Life Domain to enhance his ability once more, then used Life Sense to cover the entirety of the Laotonus Faction's territory. In an instant, more than thirty Tribulation Transcendence Cultivators entered William's vision, many of which noticed him as well.

Most of the Cultivators were seated cross-legged in cave abodes or tending to their own personal herb gardens, but a few rare ones were fighting with Tribulation Transcendence Magical Beasts in dangerous zones of their territory, an almost evenly matched battle that would likely persist for a few years before the final victor was decided.

Other than these Cultivators, William noticed a pair in an inconspicuous carriage surrounded by a few others in the Nascent Soul Realm. As he peered closer at the group, his Cultivation Talent was able to identify that the Nascent Soul Cultivators were actually concealing their Cultivation.

There were actually seven peak Cultivators in a single carriage!

If that's not suspicious, I don't know what is. William thought as he opened a long-distance portal towards the carriage.

As quickly as the portal formed, so it was destroyed. Among the group of seven peak Cultivators, two of them were actually Space Mages, making William grit his teeth in annoyance. He only had 7,440 Potential Points left, which wasn't even enough to push the Space Element to SS-Rank.

A second portal was created, but the Cultivators were prepared after seeing the first one and shattered it in an instant. Even if William had combat strength at the peak of the World, his S-Rank Space Element couldn't compare to the difference in Cultivation.

He tried again with a portal fifty kilometers away, which was slightly destabilized by his opponents, but they couldn't destroy it in time. He passed through the portal, keeping his Life Domain open so he could clearly track all of them at once.

Seeing William in the distance, the Tribulation Transcendence Cultivators panicked and simultaneously activated multiple family heirlooms— Artifacts with strength close to the Ascension Realm.

Defensive shields were stacked atop one another, while a massive Complete Array was cast in an instant, even more powerful than the ones William saw in the Gravitas Ruins.

Behind them, attacking Arrays using Elements with incredible piercing ability like the Lightning and Light Element formed, while the Cultivators themselves reached into their Space Rings and pulled out vials of poison that had the same color as the miasma.

If he was the same person he was half a year ago, William would have been scared shitless, unable to react to so many defensive measures at once. Today, however, he just smiled as he thought about the effects from his X-Rank Arrays Talent.

-Array Analysis: Can analyze the workings of an Array at a glance. Only applies to Arrays, Array Formations, and Runes the Host already knows.

Amongst the group of Arrays, William knew every Rune down to its finest detail. This wasn't an issue at all.

"Ignorant." he snapped his fingers and shattered the Arrays in an instant, while his Forcefield defended against the Lightning and Darkness Magic. By the time the Forcefield shattered, the remaining energy was too little to even create a mark on his skin.

The poisonous vials were thrown, but William was too fast and dodged them before they came close. He used the Acceleration portion of the Fitness Talent to change direction and speed towards the group, his right arm hooking around one Tribulation Transcendence Cultivator and carrying him along towards the others.

Another Cultivator was hooked by his left arm, and both were suppressed by two Tier 6 Confinement Arrays that William cast in-flight. They couldn't so much as move their mouths, only able to blink and breathe under the immense suppressive effect.

"Two down. Are you sure you five can handle me alone?" William smiled.

"You'll never get the Patriarch!" four of the Cultivators yelled out simultaneously.

"Oh? So your Patriarch is this guy?" William looked at the most nervous of the seven Cultivators, a bald-headed man with a beard that was dyed blue. It was an interesting choice of style, but William didn't judge.

The Cultivators realized their mistake and gritted their teeth, rushing towards William simultaneously while two of them formed a portal for their leader to escape, "Run Patriarch! We'll hold him off!"

"Not a chance," William said as he opened the Domain of Space and restricted the Space Mana within a radius of one kilometer. Now that he was close to them all, he had no issue turning the tides with his S-Rank Space Affinity and preventing them from using their Magic. The partially formed portal collapsed, and the Cultivators realized they couldn't even open their Space Rings.

"He has multiple Domains too?!?" they didn't have much time to gather information on William and thought he only had the Seal Domain, which they had been secretly preparing to counter the entire time.

"Just a few." William replied as he opened the Territory of Sealing and held all seven Cultivators in place. A few tried to activate their secret preparations, but they were astounded to find that they didn't work at all! The Seal Element was so absurdly strong that not even their Artifacts could help them!

"T-This... You don't have a Domain!" they realized at the same time.
