Jay wasted no time in advancing his Centauri Kavach, purchasing all six equipment pieces—helmet, shoulder guards, gauntlets, tassets, greaves, and boots—of both the Rare and Epic Grades in the Spirit Equipment section.
He upgraded the armour twice, bringing it directly to Legend Grade. The transformation was remarkable. Not only did the armor provide a substantial boost to his stats, but the skills it gained were top-tier, even compared to typical Legend Grade equipment.
Whether it was additional Health, Stamina, or Spirit Energy, he now possessed them all in ample reserves, thanks to his inherent skills. Alongside these, he had gained a new shield skill for added defense, complementing the elemental defense skill already in his arsenal. This further reinforced the already formidable protection provided by the armour.
Although Jay could have easily pushed the armor to Myth Grade with the Universe Points at his disposal, he held back. The reason was clear: his current stats wouldn\'t come close to meeting the requirements for a Myth Grade upgrade.
Even at Legend Grade, the Centauri Kavach demanded a steep 500 stats in both Vitality and Endurance. To equip it, Jay had to allocate all 425 of his Undistributed stats from reaching Level 50. Thankfully, one of his new Myth Grade skills,║Synchrony║, allowed him to handle the massive surge in stats with ease.
Once the adjustments were made, the results were staggering. With the Undistributed stats allocated and the Bonus stats provided by the armor, Jay\'s overall stats soared to 3390. This was a monumental increase of over 1000 stats in one leap. The jump propelled Jay into the league of a Tier-5 lifeform, at least in terms of raw stats.
What made the situation even more incredible was how this would translate when he next activates INVERSE mode. Then, his overall stats would reach an astounding 10,000, equivalent to the baseline stats of a newly ascended Tier-6 lifeform. It was an extraordinary leap in power, something that would have been overwhelming without║Synchrony║ maintaining balance in his mind and body.
Jay\'s confidence in his ability to face Urzo surged to new heights. The immense growth he had achieved in just half a day was unlike anything he had experienced before. Yet, despite this, his face remained stern, unshaken, and composed—a reflection of the emotional suppression brought about by║Synchrony║.
He didn\'t revel in his newfound strength, instead focusing on what lay ahead. The battle with Urzo loomed closer, and for the first time, Jay felt not only prepared but entirely capable of dominating the confrontation.
With a mental command, Jay activated the 2nd Armour Form, STARBORNE HORIZON. The golden-black overcoat he wore transformed seamlessly into the full-body armor. Unlike its previous form, where a transparent film covered his head, a striking helmet now replaced it.
The helmet was a fusion of a warrior\'s battle helm and a king\'s crown. Its V-shaped dark visor shielded his face but didn\'t obstruct his vision in the slightest. Instead, it enhanced it, granting him a 360-degree view without any blind spots.
As he took in his surroundings, he noticed the streams of golden light particles radiating from the center of his back. These particles moved like molten stardust, shimmering brilliantly and rippling through the air in intricate patterns.
Jay guessed that the golden particles were a result of the armour being crafted from the essence of a living star. The streams coalesced into ribbon-like streams, weaving together into shapes faintly reminiscent of wings, though they served no such function.
Testing his armour\'s capabilities, Jay willed it to take flight. Instantly, the golden light streams spiraled outward, forming graceful arcs that pulsed with every motion. When he directed the armor to move forward, it responded with astonishing speed.
The acceleration was so extreme that Jay burst through several walls of his towering residence before emerging into the open air. Hovering several meters above the ground, he quickly commanded the armor to halt.
The noise and destruction caused by his sudden flight drew the attention of nearby Alpha Chosen, who immediately grew alert. However, MJ promptly reassured them via their wristband prototypes that it was simply Jay testing his abilities. With the tension eased, they quickly resumed their tasks.
Jay, still hovering, took a moment to process what had just happened. The sheer speed at which the armor moved caught him off guard. In an instant, he had reached his peak movement speed of 2.6 Mach, something he couldn\'t achieve right away through sprinting alone.
Curious to test its vertical movement, Jay willed the armor to ascend. The response was immediate. He shot upward like a missile, effortlessly breaking through the sound barrier. The turbulence was negligible, the armor absorbing the brunt of the forces. Behind him, the golden light streams stretched into narrow, streaking tendrils that left a radiant trail in the sky, resembling comets tracing across the sky.
The more Jay flew, the better he became at controlling his movements. Within just ten minutes, he had traveled over 500 kilometers, and thanks to the skills that enhanced his Stamina capacity and Stamina Regeneration, he managed to sustain flight with minimal exhaustion.
This allowed him to maintain long-duration flights without straining himself. He practiced until he mastered precise control, maneuvering at various speeds to ensure he could adjust his pace as needed.
To conclude the testing, Jay decided to push his limits by combining his Pseudo-Speed Energy with the armor\'s capabilities. As the familiar layer of azure-blue energy enveloped him, he focused and thrust himself forward.
The result was exhilarating. With Pseudo-Speed Energy quadrupling his base movement speed and factoring in the bonus from Rex\'s Innate Talent, Jay reached a staggering velocity of 2058 m/s—or Mach 6, six times the speed of sound.
For Jay, the moment he accelerated past the sound barrier, the air around him exploded with an intense boom, a sudden and sharp release of pressure as the shockwave propagated outward. The golden light trails from his armor twisted and shimmered against the shockwave, refracting and dispersing the light into dazzling arcs across the sky.
The turbulence was immense, but his armour absorbed the brunt, leaving him with only a faint sense of resistance as he blazed through the air.
Jay maintained this breathtaking speed for ten minutes straight before reaching his current limit due to the immense Spirit Energy consumption required to sustain Pseudo-Speed Energy. In that short span, he crossed two Trial Regions. He realized that with higher Spirit Energy reserves and improved regeneration rates in the future, he could sustain this speed for even longer. For now, though, it was an excellent tool for emergency escapes.
Satisfied with his testing, Jay made his way back to Earth\'s Foothold, where he noticed the hole he had accidentally smashed during takeoff was already repaired. MJ had used his Spirit Energy signature to seamlessly restore it, ensuring no lasting damage remained.
Having thoroughly tested the upgraded growth-type armour, including its lifesaving skills, Jay turned his attention to another piece of Spirit Equipment he had been eyeing, a storage space equipment like the Debuffer Ring.
{Author Note: The name \'Limiter Ring\' has been updated to \'Debuffer Ring\' in this revamped version. This is one of several changes made to enhance the story.}
Jay\'s search for a new storage ring stemmed from two primary concerns. The first was practical: his current 10 cubic meters of storage space had become far too cramped, overwhelmed by the abundance of resources and Spirit Items he had accumulated from conquering Obelisks.
The second concern, however, was far more critical. Jay knew that the Unique Talent user,
who could traverse through Inventory spaces and access stored items was still out there. While Urzo was currently assisting him, Jay wasn\'t willing to take unnecessary risks.His resources had grown so immense that they could easily provoke greed in others, particularly someone like Urzo, who had unrestricted access to the storage spaces and could come and go as he pleased. This was exactly why Jay was determined to find a solution to guard against such potential vulnerabilities.
Determined to find a secure option, Jay began browsing the available Spatial Storage Equipment. Even among the Myth Grade selections, none met his criteria. He specifically sought an item that could restrict any form of spatial entry, but nothing below Myth Grade offered such a feature.
After some deliberation, Jay considered settling for a standard Myth Grade storage ring, despite it falling short of his expectations.
Just as he was about to make the reluctant choice, MJ intervened with a suggestion: "Master, check the Growth-Type equipment section". Intrigued, Jay followed MJ\'s advice and was stunned by what he found.
The Growth-Type section was filled with equipment priced at a premium, with even the least expensive option starting at 100 Universe Points. Most of the options were weapons, but with the Origin Glaive already in his possession, Jay had no need for another weapon. Similarly, his Centauri Kavach was more than sufficient for defense.
However, among the spatial storage equipment, one item immediately caught Jay\'s attention. It was the most expensive option in the category, priced at an astounding 6666 Universe Points, about one-fifth the cost of his dual-bladed Glaive.
When Jay began reviewing its abilities, his eyes widened in surprise. The item offered features far beyond what he had anticipated.
