Chapter 276: Chapter 210: Lizard-Shaped Jiao

Throughout May, Ji Xinghuo, besides going out on dates with Zhao Manying, spent the rest of his time cultivating at home.

After fusing with the Electrostatic Field Species, his Star Power increased to 868 points.

He immersed himself in cultivation for a month, and with the aid of medication to enhance efficiency, he broke through 900 points by the end of May.

However, the greatest improvement was his control over the Electrostatic Field.

Ji Xinghuo discovered various application techniques for the Electrostatic Field and created different effects with Lightning Strikes; within a ten-meter radius, he almost achieved whatever he envisioned.

When the Electrostatic Field was stimulated together with the Rotating Magnetic Field, he even dared to confront a Legendary Mutant head-on for a few exchanges.

Of course, only at Legendary First Dan.

In the Cultivation Room.

Ji Xinghuo stood in the center, his eyes focused. A thick flash of lightning rapidly circled around him. It moved so fast that if an ordinary person were present, they wouldn’t be able to catch sight of the lightning at all. They would only perceive a flash of light in the room and hear the deafening sound of thunder.

Roaring thunder...

Continuous thunderclaps mixed with the sharp whistling of electric currents.

The lightning suddenly stopped.

A tangible bolt of lightning paused in front of Ji Xinghuo, stretching over three meters, twisting and turning, with several smaller currents branching off as if it were frozen. One end was grasped in Ji Xinghuo’s hand. He swung his arm, and the lightning turned into a long whip that lashed out.

Crack!

The air burst, creating a violent explosion of sound.

"Lightning Whip!"

"This move isn’t bad."

Ji Xinghuo smiled satisfactorily. This Lightning Whip amassed a large amount of charge and could also wrap around weapons to enhance lethality.

If he were unarmed, the Lightning Whip could temporarily serve as a potent weapon as well.

The Lightning Whip was a variation of Thunderbolt Hand.

Currently, Thunderbolt Hand was at Fourth Level. As the level increased further, not only would its power become increasingly formidable, but the attack distance would also extend far beyond the radius of the Electrostatic Field.

Furthermore, this month Ji Xinghuo had also mastered Thunder Strike and Lightning Chain.

Thunder Strike was an area attack that instantaneously formed multiple bolts of lightning falling from the sky, creating a very flashy scene when used.

Lightning Chain struck one target and then automatically jumped to the nearest next target, allowing for multiple transfers although its power decreased with each jump.

Electromagnetic Pulse and Pulse Arc had also become stronger.

Their range was larger and their effects better.

However, aside from Thunderbolt Hand, other methods of controlling electricity were difficult to extend beyond the radius of the Electrostatic Field. Once it exceeded ten meters, their power would drastically plunge.

Ji Xinghuo figured out the reason.

His own control still wasn’t sufficient, as lightning was too fast. He could clearly perceive the changes in charges and currents through microscale perception, but his thinking was somewhat lagging.

This was easy to fix; he just needed to merge with "High-frequency Thinking" and then upgrade it.

However, High-frequency Thinking didn’t address the root issue.

"I still need Spiritual Energy!"

Ji Xinghuo sighed.

The reason Spiritual Energy was so powerful was that it allowed Mutants to exquisitely manipulate various forms of energy and project that energy over great distances, using the mind to leverage the aether and interfere with matter!

If he currently possessed Spiritual Energy, with the Electrostatic Field as a driver, the control radius would surely extend well beyond ten meters.

Even at Spiritual Ability Level One, it could project over a hundred meters!

"Spiritual Energy..."

Ji Xinghuo couldn’t help but shake his head.

Spiritual Energy was also a Transcendent Species, but even within the Transcendent Species, there were vast differences. Spiritual Energy was one of the most unique Species below Star Fall.

No Mutant would refuse Spiritual Energy, regardless of what Professional Templates they had.

Spiritual Energy was almost compatible with all professions, and the Fusion Success Rate was never low.

Ji Xinghuo still remembered, from last year, the Spiritual Ability Species he had harvested from that Toad Spirit had a 99% fusion success rate with him, as high as with the Rotating Magnetic Field and Electrostatic Field.

Spiritual Energy had no conflict with Star Power; they could be cultivated simultaneously.

Even if he didn’t major in Spiritual Energy, undertaking a part-time role as a Spiritual Power Stringer, it was still an excellent support method.

This made the Spiritual Ability Species almost impossible to appear on the market; it wasn’t something one could buy with money. Even with Ren Mian’s financial resources, they could only form their own team to venture and hunt the Toad Spirit.

"It’s not easy." Ji Xinghuo scratched his head. No one would sell a Spiritual Ability Species, and without any leads, he didn’t even know where to go hunting.

"I wonder if Sister Ren has any channels."

He thought of Ren Mian and suddenly missed her.

It had been over a year since he last saw her. He had no idea where she was now, shrouded in mystery without even a hint of news.

"Overthinking is pointless."

Ji Xinghuo discarded the messy thoughts and looked towards the corner of the Cultivation Room.

There, a crawling creature, over six meters long, lay motionless. Its body was covered in tricolored scales of green, gold, and silver, each as big as a palm, layered and arranged like thick, neat armor protecting its entire body. With a green base and gold and silver patterns, it was both dazzling and daunting. It was Qing Hong.

Since it had devoured that Nile River giant lizard, Qing Hong had begun its metamorphosis.

The process of fusing with the Species was one of gene recombination.

This progress was slower than Ji Xinghuo had anticipated; it took a whole week for Qing Hong to completely digest the giant lizard’s corpse before it started its metamorphosis.

Every two to three days, it shed a layer of scales and then grew new ones.

It was recovering the true form of a Golden Python. Without consuming food, its weight exploded while its length only increased by two meters. However, its weight increased more than tenfold.

Now, Qing Hong weighed over two tons!

Its appearance had also undergone huge changes, most notably four limbs had emerged on its belly. Initially, the limbs were very slender but grew increasingly robust, sporting five sharp claws at the tips of the limbs.
