Harvey then opened the hero interface for the Void Walker, Kassadin.

There were five skills displayed.

Voidstone: The power of magic inflicted upon you is slightly reduced, you are immune to damage from lower-tier magic, and you can phase directly into the void to pass through matter.

This is a special skill that grows on its own the longer you absorb the void, and cannot be actively enhanced.

[Null Sphere Evolution Count 0: Draw upon the power of the void to form a Null Sphere. When it strikes a living being, it seals the target's magical energy for one second and forms a layer of Void Armor around you, shielding you from magical harm.]

[Nether Blade Evolution Count 0: Passively, all your attacks draw upon the void, enchanting your body with magic and dealing greater destruction.]

[When used actively, you charge your Nether Blade, greatly enhancing the power of your next magical attack.]

[Force Pulse Evolution Count 0: Passive absorption—each time you cast a spell or absorb void energy, you can siphon residual magic and energy from within a hundred meters.]

[Once enough magic and energy have gathered, you can unleash a Force Pulse. Its power and range depend on the amount of energy absorbed.]

[Void Rift Evolution Count 0: Each time you slip into and traverse the void, you may choose to trigger a void explosion, devastating everything around you.]

Every skill of the Void Walker is a divine gift to mages.

Most mages are like super magical artillery, but their own defenses and close-combat abilities are not strong; once an enemy gets close, they are in grave danger.

Now, with the addition of the Void Reaver Kha’Zix’s abilities, Harvey no longer needed to worry so much when facing enemies wielding powerful magic.

Of these five skills, only the Voidstone requires time and void absorption to improve on its own; the other four can be upgraded directly.

After a hearty meal at Tony’s house, Harvey now had eight hundred seventy-five thousand evolution points.

He originally thought he couldn’t evolve further, but he noticed that all four of these skills could be evolved.

Clearly, the evolution of Kassadin’s skills overlapped with that of Kha’Zix’s.

This allowed him to spend ten thousand evolution points to upgrade as he pleased.

Harvey’s Void Assault reached an astounding level fifty precisely because, before evolving one hundred times, he had poured a heap of levels into Void Assault.

Given the chance to evolve a hero’s ultimate skill, who would waste points on minor skills? So, without hesitation, Harvey poured them all into Void Rift.

Harvey immediately spent four hundred ninety thousand evolution points, raising Void Rift to level fifty.

A torrent of knowledge flooded his mind, and Harvey felt as if the world and the void around him were teeming with unseen energies.

He wanted to push Void Assault to level one hundred, but further progress required his other skills to reach certain thresholds first.

Thus, he evolved the remaining three skills ten times each, and their effects changed:

[Null Sphere Evolution Count 10: Draw upon the power of the void to form a Null Sphere. When it strikes a living being, void energy invades the target, temporarily disrupting the flow of their magic for three seconds, and forms a layer of Void Armor around you, shielding you from magical harm.]

[Nether Blade Evolution Count 10: All your attacks draw upon the void, enchanting your body with magic and dealing greater destruction.]

[When used actively, you charge your Nether Blade, vastly enhancing the power of your next magical attack.]

[Force Pulse Evolution Count 10: Passive absorption—each time you cast a spell or absorb void energy, you can siphon residual magic and energy from within eleven hundred meters.]

[Once enough magic and energy have gathered, you can unleash a Force Pulse. Its power and range depend on the amount of energy absorbed.]

[Void Rift Evolution Count 50: You can gaze into the void, perceive the essence of space, and know its coordinates.]

[When you slip into and traverse the void, you may choose to trigger a void explosion, causing terrifying destruction to everything around you.]

[All these skills will be further enhanced when you revert to your hero’s true form.]

[Your magic is useless against me—Kassadin.]

When Harvey saw this phrase from Kassadin, brimming with self-assurance, a smile broke across his face.

Its appearance meant he had mastered the majority of his hero template’s power.

He closed his eyes and reached out with his senses to this world, and instantly, he saw the starlit cosmos and countless points of light, each glowing with a different hue.

The spot where he stood shone the brightest; the farther away, the smaller the lights appeared.

With this ability, he could travel to space at will.

But before venturing into the cosmos, Harvey needed to conduct some experiments.

If he weren’t sufficiently familiar with his powers, a single misstep—such as teleporting himself into the sun—would make him the most spectacularly foolish transmigrator in history.

For now, Harvey paid no heed to the countless points of light in the universe and focused on Blue Star.

With his concentration, his vision swiftly swept down from the vastness of space.

He saw the countless humans in New York, each as tiny as ants.

He could only make out the larger buildings, mountains, and landforms—he couldn’t hear the people’s words clearly.

This realization brought him comfort; by being able to see the general state of each point of light, he could at least avoid descending into perilous places and dying immediately.

He then locked onto his own estate, summoned the void energy of space, and his body split into a beam of violet light and vanished.

The next instant, Harvey appeared in the sky above his large estate.

Throughout the entire process, he exercised careful control over his power, finally drifting down gently to the ground to avoid accidentally destroying his own home.

Once he landed, a smile bloomed on Harvey’s face.

Once he fully mastered his new strength, he could traverse the cosmos, spreading the will of the void to every planet.

Thus, Harvey began to practice short-range spatial travel.

Long-distance traversal, now that he could survey the general shape of certain worlds, was no longer the focus of his training.

For now, it was merely a method of transportation; to make Void Rift useful in combat,

He had to be able to instantly teleport to any desired location within his line of sight.

This would not only make him a far more formidable fighter, but also allow him to better guide other beings toward faith in the void across the universe.

As for establishing permanent teleport points and conducting mass transfers of other beings—those advanced techniques were not something he needed to consider just yet.
