Chapter 256: Chapter256-Void Traverse
[Prompt: You have consumed 256,898 Divine Class Points. Your current level is Level 302!]
[Prompt: You have consumed 356,898 Divine Class Points. Your current level is Level 303!]
...
John raised his level all the way to Level 340 in one breath.
As he consumed a large number of Divine Class Points, his attributes also increased.
Afterward, he also raised all of his items, pets, and equipment to their current level caps.
At that moment, a prompt rang beside his ears.
[Congratulations! You have awakened a new Divine Skill: Mana Shield!]
Hearing the prompt, John’s expression did not change.
To him, this so-called Divine Skill was no longer something impressive.
The divine power, skills, and various inheritances he currently possessed were the true things capable of bringing him enormous improvement.
However, Divine Skills could still provide him with a small increase in combat strength.
After all, the design of Divine Skills themselves was extremely ingenious. It was just that due to the limitations of the human race’s bloodline potential, they could not break free from the skills themselves and reach the level of godly laws between gods.
"But that doesn’t matter. I just obtained Skill Ascension Scrolls from the trial space."
At the final moment before the trial space collapsed, John had exchanged for many items, including six Skill Ascension Scrolls.
Now, they happened to be useful.
He immediately took a Skill Ascension Scroll out of his inventory.
[Ding! You are using a Skill Ascension Scroll.]
[Prompt: This item is extremely rare. Once used, the process cannot be reversed. Confirm use?]
"Confirm."
John’s expression remained calm.
[Ding! Use successful!]
[Prompt: Congratulations! You have awakened the demigod-grade Divine Skill: Void Traverse!]
John glanced at the prompt and directly added it to his skill bar.
[Ding! You have mastered the skill book: Void Traverse!]
[Prompt: A new skill has been added to your skill bar. Please check it in time.]
John opened the panel and looked over.

[Description]: What is Inner Space?
The human race possesses an innate transcendent physique, blessed by the laws of the Divine Realm and favored by the will of the primal origin.
Even though the human body is frail and its destined lifespan short, this was deliberately created by the will of the primal origin!
This is known as leaving a flaw within perfection.
Although the foreign races beyond the domain possess powerful innate bodies, all transcendent physiques carry flaws of fate.
Absolute perfection will inevitably lead to collapse. When strength reaches its peak, weakness will naturally be born.
Therefore, all supreme existences who ascend to the highest Divine Realm take on the form of the human race in order to comprehend the origin laws of the universe and thereby wield the supreme authority of transcendence.
Why is this so?
Universal transcendence is divided into fifty laws. Forty-nine circulate through the present world, while only one transcendent law remains hidden in the void.
This hidden transcendence exists only within the transcendent shell of the human race.
There is also an ancient cosmic scripture that records this:
Between the three-dimensional material dimension and the four-dimensional space-time dimension, there exists a hidden critical dimension.
This critical dimension is the unique transcendence that exists in the gap between three dimensions and four dimensions.
And this transcendence is Inner Space!
Among the countless star domains and foreign races, none possess this Inner Space. It belongs exclusively to the transcendent physique of the human race.
Once the human race fully comprehends the transcendent authority of Inner Space, the race will inevitably ascend to the peak of the cosmos.
Countless star domains, the ten thousand great Divine Races, trillions of foreign races, and cross-realm space-time beings will all be subdued and commanded by humanity.
"Transcendent physique... Inner Space."
The corner of John’s mouth twitched slightly.
So that was how it was.
He had always found it strange before.
Almost all the top powerhouses among the myriad races maintained humanoid forms.
The Divine Race, demon race, Hellborn, and even the mighty figures of the Swarmborn would transform into human form on formal occasions.
He had thought it was because of aesthetics.
Now, it seemed that was not the case at all.
The true bodies of foreign races were indeed strong. They were born with built-in advantages.
But their law bodies were flawed.
Although the human race was weak and fragile, there was something within human bodies that they did not possess!
Inner Space.
A 3.5-dimensional space that transcended three-dimensional space while remaining unbound by the laws of four-dimensional space-time.
It was not restricted by time or space and could be controlled freely.
"The myriad races have been desperately suppressing humanity not because we are weak."
John’s gaze turned colder.
"It is because they are afraid."
Afraid that one day, the human race would comprehend Inner Space.
Afraid that humanity would truly rise and trample the countless myriad races beneath its feet.
"Good. They should be afraid."
John closed the panel and sensed the change in strength brought by Void Traverse within his body.
Chaotic Space, Reverse Space, Inner Space!
The first two were battlefield Divine Skills. Instant movement, position swapping, and attack transfer were all about catching the enemy off guard.
As for Inner Space, predicting the next movement and attacking from dimensional space were forms of suppression on the dimensional level.
The cost was indeed brutal.
It started at hundreds of millions of Divinity per use, and the stronger the opponent, the more violently it burned through resources.
But to him, Divinity was not a problem.
John raised his head.
In the distance, two more auras were approaching.
After he killed the previous batch of enemies sent to die, the announcement had broadcast his coordinates once again.
Two demigod-grade enemies.
Their auras were not weak.
He moved his wrist slightly.
Perfect timing.
He had just obtained a new skill.
He could test it on these two.
John closed the skill panel.
So, in the countless myriad races, countless universes, and among all living beings, anyone who wanted to temper themselves and grow stronger had to transform into human form.
This was Inner Space.
To put it simply, it was dimensional space.
There was nothing difficult to understand.
By this point, he had already obtained four advanced Divine Skills:
[Soul Plunder], [Divine Domain], [Inner Space], and [Divine Body].
Four still remained outside his grasp:
[Divine Heart], [Sixfold Divinity], [Divine Hand], and [Divine Light].
"I still have five Skill Ascension Scrolls left. That’s enough."
John calculated briefly.
In the future, whenever he obtained a new Divine Skill, he could directly use a scroll to raise it to demigod grade.
Moreover, demigod grade was not necessarily the end.
Since there were items that could raise Divine Skills to demigod grade, then there were surely items that could raise them to High God grade.
He stopped thinking about it and opened the Divine Beast Bestiary.
One of the greatest gains from this trial was this thing!
Divine Beast Bestiary — Phoenix.
The interface unfolded.
Beside the Holy Dragon Wings card slot, which had previously been the only one lit up, a second slot was now glowing.
Inside that slot was the divine beast Phoenix.
John examined it carefully.
The Phoenix also had wings on its back. Its entire body looked like a tattered sack, engulfed in flames and as red as blazing fire. It had six legs and four wings.
Just as he was about to examine it more closely, a prompt appeared.
[Ding! Would you like to visualize the divine beast Phoenix?]
