Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

The black-clad Saber, covered in scars, was saved by the glittering gold figure, but without a word of thanks, those black mires appeared under his feet once more. Slowly sinking, he straight-up betrayed the glistening presence at the scene.

However, Gilgamesh's pride was such that he hardly cared about these things and still faced Tao Yu and the others head-on.

"This king must commend your strength, all of you are qualified, except for that fake," he said.

Gilgamesh, with his hands in his pockets, stood atop the half-undestroyed city wall, looking down upon everyone.

His gaze traversed over the group.

Apart from the Red A he found displeasing, as a demigod, Uncle B, Hashirama Senju who had previously exerted immense pressure, and Mr. Men who had effortlessly taken the group away from under his nose, all received his acknowledgment.

"Your strength has gained this king's recognition, so I'll give you a chance to back down. I will just take the vessel, don't get in my way," he said.

One could only say that Gilgamesh's words were quite infuriating, no matter how one listened to them, they felt annoying.

And in that moment, Tao Yu heard Mr. Men's telepathic message, as if it was a form of pure mental communication.

"Mr. Tao, that key of his is troublesome, and it greatly disturbs the space, so I can only help you before he takes it out. We can have Mr. Hashirama attract his attention while you activate the power of time, and then I'll send you over," Mr. Men said.

After all, Mr. Men was an old fox who had lived for such a long time; his knowledge was extensive.

He had seen through the flaws of the sparkling figure and also found the best countermeasure!

This made Tao Yu's eyes shine with anticipation.

"No problem!" he said.

It was a risk, but Tao Yu felt it was one worth taking!

According to quantum mechanics, no possibility is one-hundred percent certain; as long as there's a high probability of success, that was enough!

"Hashirama, don't use a big one," he instructed.

"Okay!" Hashirama responded.

Almost simultaneously with the end of Tao Yu's sentence, Hashirama Senju brought his hands together, and a Wooden Dragon, tens of meters in size, wound upwards into the air!

This also attracted Gilgamesh's attention.

"Heh, thinking that changing strategies would..." he began.

But at that instant, an extreme sense of crisis suddenly emerged, startling Gilgamesh as ripples appeared and the Chains of Heaven burst forth!

Even as the Chains of Heaven were unleashed, he still desperately flickered to evade.

Yet as a streak of the aurora's iridescent light brushed by, half of his body still vanished into thin air.

"You actually..." he began, astonished.

The one-legged Gilgamesh, looking furiously at Tao Yu who was entangled by the Chains of Heaven, bared a face full of rage.

With his one remaining hand open, the Sword of Rupture began to emerge from the treasury.

But the next moment, as a red crack flashed across his wrist.

Spurt~

The sound punctuated his words as it snapped!

The Sword of Rupture that had begun to emerge rescinded back into the treasury.

Then his neck, too, began to show a faint red line!

But it seemed to be contending with his own mental strength.

Unfortunately, if it were his prime, Gilgamesh might have been able to withstand the Sword of the Spirit, at least not be instantly vanquished.

But after already losing half his body to the Yin-Yang Five Elements Divine Thunder, being erased and severely wounded in an instant, and then suffering injuries to his hand, Gilgamesh – not known for physical durability – saw the red line on his neck become increasingly apparent.

Gilgamesh, as if foreseeing his own end, couldn't help but reveal a hint of a mocking smile just before his death.

"This king admits, now you are stronger! Take this king's reward well, and be grateful," he said.

Spurt~

Gilgamesh's head was severed from his body.

Even with his head flying off, a proud smirk still graced his face.

This finally allowed Tao Yu to breathe a sigh of relief.

He hadn't expected that, under his Inherent Time Control and with the help of Mr. Men's teleportation, he nearly missed the opportunity for a sneak attack. The opponent's Chains of Heaven seemed to possess a degree of autonomy, requiring no intervention from him.

And this thing, much like Sealing Techniques, once it entangled someone, their entire strength began to feel lethargic. Fortunately, the Yin-Yang Five Elements Divine Thunder had already been deployed, and with the speed of the Sword of the Spirit, he had narrowly managed to end the battle.

"It's not over yet, I still need to seal those dark spots that are secretly intercepting the Heroic Spirits."

As the power of the Chains of Heaven waned, shadows of Tao Yu began to swarm out towards the surroundings, preparing to use Sealing Skill to lock down the darkness that might come to steal from Gilgamesh.

But the next moment, Tao Yu's expression turned rather strange.

To his surprise, a wave of Yuan Force began to emanate from Gilgamesh!

This left Tao Yu momentarily stunned before he was overcome with immense joy.

It was a Gold Coin bonanza!

Initially, due to the return of Heroic Spirits to the Holy Grail, Tao Yu hadn't had high hopes for the Heroic Spirits.

But unexpectedly, the glittering Gilgamesh had brought him such a delightful surprise!

"That's right, to some extent, Gilgamesh could be considered both a Chosen One and a Fortune Thief. He had a touch of one, and with the flesh he was granted during the fourth battle, it's not strange for a Gold Coin explosion!"

Then, as Tao Yu watched with eager eyes, the Yuan Force gathered towards the Chains of Heaven beside him!

[Noble Phantasm · Chains of Heaven]: The chains that once captured "the Bull of Heaven" that plunged Uruk into seven years of famine can bind the enemy and continuously absorb their energy, making the target's energy sluggish and paralyzing their flesh; can provide sealing reinforcement;

Concept Equipment [Energy Sustainment] is formed by the energy provided by the user, and can be reconstituted after destruction;

Has the property of [Divine Rule], the more divine the enemy, the stronger the chains;

Can be soul bound; can absorb one hundred thousand Yuan Force.

It was a massive Gold Coin bonanza!

Tao Yu did not hesitate for a moment and immediately bound [Noble Phantasm · Chains of Heaven] to himself.

Swish, swish~

The sound of chains rang out as the Chains of Heaven flowed transparently into Tao Yu's body.

With a mere thought from Tao Yu, he could activate the Chains of Heaven with True Yuan, manifesting them from his vicinity to bind enemies!

"And, it seems I can also integrate Sealing Techniques into it?"

A wave of thrill swept through Tao Yu; to some extent, this was truly making Sealing Techniques applicable for real combat, similar to a Diamond Seal, but with even greater potential!

[Noble Phantasm · Chains of Heaven] itself also had an upper limit in capacity, at least according to its performance in the Holy Grail War, it was somewhat limited.

But being shaped by his own energy, coupled with [Divine Rule], along with the enhancements to the chains through the elevation of his own Sealing Techniques, this could indeed become a growing Noble Phantasm in theory!

"It can be used for offense and defense, and it has a degree of autonomy when defending, with extremely quick reactions."

Tao Yu was inwardly overjoyed; he hadn't expected a Gold Coin explosion from Gilgamesh, but not only did it happen, it also satisfied him greatly. Your next read is at My Virtual Library Empire

This was truly an unexpected boon.

Swish, swish~

Ripples appeared in the void next to him as chains emerged and covered Gilgamesh's body, not only sealing all those quietly appearing dark spots but also dragging Gilgamesh's materialized corpse together.

"The Chains of Heaven have a very high maximum length, but they need my own energy as support. Moreover, the further they stretch from my body, the more exponentially the consumption increases..."

Tao Yu sensed some details about using it, but this was also a good thing, as it could grow further alongside his own growth.

The tips of the Chains of Heaven were still like spear points, capable of directly launching attacks and penetrating the enemy's flesh.

The Sealing Techniques could also cover both Yin and Yang properties!

"Although your mouth was a bit foul, I still have to thank you for your generous gift."

Tao Yu looked at Gilgamesh's corpse, then popped some Yuan Force to recover a bit, and a Yin-Yang Five Elements Divine Thunder erased everything.

I'm cleansing your corpse for you, so that it won't be tarnished by that black stuff. Look how kind I am, we're even now...
