Chapter 866: Chapter 628: Color is Very Important

The next day, Zheng Yichen slapped his arms, having achieved the basics of Vajra Body in just one day and night, even surpassing the preliminary expectations. According to Du Gang’s standards, Yichen’s Vajra Body was of average level, but with his physique and Performance Coefficient, his average was equivalent to the peak Vajra Body of someone native to the ancient capital, wasn’t it?

There wasn’t any noticeable physical change, but Lilith did a comparison. Zheng Yichen’s skin showed no color change, but while maintaining Vajra Body, Lilith detected a special force field from Zheng Yichen’s body, which temporarily affected his physical condition.

The surface of his body transformed into a ’Crystal’ state, and the structural arrangement of this crystallized surface even showed minute alterations, similar to a diamond—extremely hard but not at all fragile.

Moreover, this structure was strongest when intact, but once damaged, there was a significant decrease in strength.

In this context, Lilith made a comparison: when intact, Zheng Yichen’s performance strength in using Vajra Body had a 120% activation strength correction ratio on top of the basic strength of Vajra Body itself. However, once it was damaged, this ratio would immediately drop to 60% and continue to decrease as the Vajra Body sustained more damage.

This meant the body was sturdy and enhanced when unblemished, but even a small flaw would immediately reduce the strength ratio, and this was when Zheng Yichen had cultivated his Vajra Body to a basic level. If it were just initiated, the intact strength ratio would barely exceed 100%, and once the Vajra Body was broken, the ratio would instantly fall to about 40%.

The more advanced the cultivation of Vajra Body, the lower the reduction in strength correction ratio upon being damaged, and conversely, the higher the increase in strength correction when the body was intact.

However, no matter how one might compensate for the issues arising from a breached Vajra Body, it cannot change the most critical aspect of this Cultivation Technique: even a slight flaw can cause a significant drop in the high strength correction offered by Vajra Body, as per the data provided by Du Gang.

Even at his level, once Vajra Body had a flaw, the activated strength correction wouldn’t exceed 100%, only nearing it at best; without perfection, there was no exceeding this enhancement.

In a perfected state, one could easily shatter limits, as even an initiated Vajra Body had a 100+% strength correction, while Du Gang’s perfected state estimated over 500% in strength correction.

And that was only on actively engaging Vajra Body. This technique inherently provided strength enhancement, who upgrades only to increase skill level without boosting base attributes?

Nevertheless, Zheng Yichen’s physical strength was already high, and he didn’t perceive any direct increase in his strength; the cultivation of Vajra Body did enhance strength, but it was minor for his high baseline.

If he could cultivate to Du Gang’s level, he would surely experience a significant rise in strength, but that prospect was distant.

Just like Du Gang, though he had obtained the Burst Mode ability through Dusk, it was hard to utilize it to the level of Zheng Yichen. Likewise, without any Vajra Gene, it was challenging to cultivate Vajra Body to the extent of Du Gang.

However, learning Vajra Body impacted his body’s surface structure and state, which indeed benefitted Zheng Yichen. Once Vajra Body was activated alongside Burst Mode, it efficiently prevented the issues of using too much fuel, causing a fuel leak.

"It’s time to consult an expert."

Zheng Yichen swung his fist, his arm, shining with a subtle luster, returned to normal. The skin didn’t turn bronze; activating Vajra Body didn’t cause it to further transform like bronze, the gleam was more metallic in nature.

Zheng Yichen wondered if Vajra Body could change a person from carbon-based to silicon-based life?

Before learning Vajra Body, bullets that hit him would deform and crack from the great counterforce. After learning it, bullets that hit him were repelled or completely shattered as if hitting an ultra-strong alloy.

His body could now serve as a bullet rebound platform for others practicing gunshot martial arts.

"Ah, just unsure if it can handle more from here," Zheng Yichen muttered, rubbing his fingers together—having previously seen Du Gang casually spark a flame with his fingers while smoking.

He too had tried later; though his body was strong, it was still flesh and couldn’t produce flames without special abilities according to Du Gang’s display. However, if his fingers moved fast enough, generating intense friction with the air was more than feasible.

After learning Vajra Body, he could ignite flames with just the friction between his fingers, without the need for ultra-high-speed arm or finger motion.

Though Vajra Body altered his body’s surface structure and ’composition’, in normal states, it wasn’t much of an issue. His skin felt as before—skin was still skin, flesh was still flesh, at least to the touch, though it wasn’t merely the skin involved when hit.
