Chapter 409: Chapter 268: Qualitative Change of the Thermal Sight_2

The Qinling Forest, once lush and thriving, now bore a starkly different appearance after his experiment with a new ability.

Trees.

These giants known for their tenacity in the natural world now seemed extraordinarily fragile.

Some trees were covered in tiny cracks, with faint traces of scorching in between.

It was as if an invisible blade had gently swept across them, each inch of bark singed by high heat without leaving any signs of raging flames.

These cracks were like a series of maps.

They recorded the trajectory of Chen Yun’s thermal sight’s remote heating, each minute detail displaying his precision and strength.

Other trees appeared even more dramatic.

Their bark had been stripped away, revealing the wood beneath.

And on the woody layer was a ceramic-like glaze texture, the result of wood melting instantly under extremely high temperatures followed by rapid cooling.

These trees seemed to have been endowed with a new artistic life and had become sculptures intertwining nature and technology.

They stood silently in this primitive forest, narrating the legend of Chen Yun’s evolution of abilities.

Not far away, a massive rock had split open, the fissures gleaming with a metallic luster.

Chen Yun’s thermal sight had not only penetrated the stone’s hard exterior.

It also heated the interior to its melting point, allowing the stone to undergo a microscopic transformation.

The edges of the split rock were sharp as if nature’s most precise knives.

They reflected a dazzling light in the sun, reminding every beholder of what had once transpired here.

On the ground, the soil that was once covered with moss and fallen leaves now exhibited peculiar geometric patterns, which were the marks left by Chen Yun when experimenting with remote heating of different shapes.

The soil in certain areas, after being heated to high temperatures and then rapidly cooled, formed a shell-like that of ceramics, contrasting starkly with the surrounding environment.

The air carried a faint scent of char, yet it wasn’t unpleasant. Instead, there was an oddly refreshing sense of freshness.

It was as if nature itself had undergone a purification and been reborn.

On the water’s surface of a nearby stream floated a few wisps of lightly evaporating steam, evidence of Chen Yun testing the heating effects of his thermal sight on water bodies.

The stream water nearly boiled.

The mist that formed lingered for a long time.

In a relatively open area, Chen Yun had also created a small man-made lake.

He had melted a large swath of land with his thermal sight, replacing shovels to artificially direct the flow of water alongside a stream.

Then, he managed to form the embryonic shape of a lustrous, translucent lake by solely using his thermal sight, allowing numerous streams to flow into it.

This body of water attracted the curiosity of nearby small animals, which cautiously poked around the edges, both surprised and excited by the sudden appearance of this warm water source.

At the center of all this, the carcass of the wild boar was particularly eye-catching.

Its skin was completely charred, its muscle tissue contracted from the high heat, and the skeleton exposed, presenting a kind of macabre beauty.

Yet around the carcass,

The grass remained green and undisturbed by any fire damage.

This phenomenon proved the astonishing extent to which Chen Yun had mastered the ability to remotely heat with his thermal sight.

He could precisely control the release of energy, ensuring the target was utterly destroyed,

while avoiding unnecessary destruction.

Chen Yun looked around and nodded in satisfaction.

Although he still had much to learn about his new ability, the initial experiments had given him a profound understanding of the potential of the remote heating version of his thermal sight.

He realized that this ability could not only play a significant role in combat but also exhibit its unique value in many other areas.

The surrounding trees and rocks all contributed to his testing of the new version of thermal sight.

And the final result could not have been achieved without the passionate dedication of the wild boar that turned into charred remains on the ground.

Chen Yun considered himself not to be the kind of person who kills indiscriminately.

It was mainly because while he was busy training his thermal sight, this wild boar just recklessly presented itself at his doorstep, and it would have been a pity not to use it as an experimental subject.

So,

After a series of calm tests,

Chen Yun had basically figured out all the changes brought about by evolution, including thermal sight, except for the new ability.

He skillfully entered the Memory Palace and recorded the related data:

[Record No. 70: 2024.5.7 (Lunar March 29th)]

[1. High-frequency spontaneous trembling of all muscles, dual training of both spirit and body. Current endurance time: 600 seconds. Current strength approximately 1000 tons.]

[2. Original body type, physique unchanged, current height 180cm, physique approaching the standard muscular build of a man 180cm tall. Weight still maintained at 100kg, suspected that overall body data is locked, seemingly no longer correlated with strength and muscle.]

[3. Transparent World Perception v5.0 description——specific effects include: Super Vision, Super Smell, Super Hearing, spiritual power [including Real-time Information Transmission, 3D perception modeling, perspective (cannot penetrate self, can penetrate biological bodies), Emotion Perception, Telekinesis, Electromagnetic Wave Perception, Basic Version, Emotion Stimulation, super visual-range perception, Soul Emergence, Linked Skill: Divine Travel (spiritual power cannot directly move the inhabited object, can consider indirectly manipulating other objects to influence the displacement of the hosted object), nurturing, Dream Entry]]

[3-1. Spiritual power enhancement description——coverage area increased from 600 meters to 700 meters, the increase this time was 16.7%, not exceeding the 20% increase last time.]

[3-2. Telekinesis description——Telekinesis is another term for spiritual power, which is the ability of spiritual power to affect the outside world. Therefore, the application range is the same as spiritual power, it can appear anywhere within this range, and its influence can penetrate all materials except biological bodies. Frequent use can increase strength and proficiency in operation. After this evolution, the force increased to 500 Newtons, precision unchanged.]

[3-3. Super visual-range perception description——No limit in time, no limit in distance, however, the patina sacrificial refining time is influenced by mass. This evolution progressed from accommodating thirty complete contacts to thirty-five.]

[3-4. Nurturing description——It is a nourishing skill and not a healing skill. However, it can indirectly enhance self-healing ability to achieve a therapeutic effect by infusing Life Force. Can be used with spiritual power out of thin air, with current spiritual power, can now sustain output from three minutes to four minutes.]

[3-5. Dream Entry description——Enter human dreams, become the Dream Master that can freely alter the dreamscape. Note: Death in dreams will weaken spiritual power. One hour in the dream world is equal to one minute in the real world. Soul Emergence can also exert the Dream Entry Ability without any effect. The concept of connected dreams still requires three problems to be solved: the construction of a permanent dream, guiding others’ Spiritual Bodies into dreams, multiple people entering the dream.]

[3-6. Extra-dimensional sense of smell description——It has already deviated from conventional scientific principles of smell, becoming nearly fantastical and outrageous, exaggerated to the extent that it can use a smell that no longer exists to discern everything a toy experienced on the assembly line after being played with for several months.]

[4. Thermal sight description——The temperature upper limit remains at two thousand degrees, the duration has increased from one hundred and twenty seconds to three hundred and sixty seconds, an increase by 200%. It can be basically determined from the sixth evolution that daily training cannot improve thermal sight, but it will be affected by the overall increase effect of each evolution, thus increasing a certain duration and intensity.]

[4.1 Thermal sight supplementary description——After the eleventh evolution, thermal sight can heat objects through the air, not necessarily needing the expression of lasers, with a slight increase in operational precision.]

[5. Gravity-like description——Maximum intensity is the own endurance limit (can be freely adjusted downwards), currently can only affect oneself, and does not influence the outside world.]

Having recorded all these,

The only thing that remained unclear after the eleventh slumber evolution was the new ability he gained from choosing the green Light Point.

He had never chosen the golden or green Light Points before.

So he was quite curious about the new abilities these two Light Points would bring.

Because of his habit of saving the best for last, he had not tried to sense what that ability actually was.

But now, it was time!

Contemplating,

Chen Yun tried to sense that ability.

At this moment, the name of the new ability emerged in his mind.

It was called—Thunder.

The name was simple and self-explanatory.

At the same time,

As Chen Yun excitedly stimulated the ability, he also felt the specific form of the new ability.

In the space between his raised index finger and thumb,

A tiny electric arc appeared.
