Lucian flew away from the eting place. He wanted to test out his skill so badly, so before eting Scarlett, he decided to try them out in an empty space. The place where he was attacked seed just the perfect place.
"Zero, along with , your ability must have also gotten stronger, right? Does that an I will be able to copy more abilities, or maybe for longer tis, or perhaps both? Is there no way to permanently steal those abilities?"
Lucian asked as he flew at a speed several tis faster than before, despite the usage of a lot less energy. He glanced at Velm, which was blood red and seed to have changed quite a bit.
[I don't think there was a limit to how many abilities you can copy at once, or if there is, then it must be pretty high. I think the ti for which you can keep the abilities has increased. As for turning them into a permanent ability, I think there is a way, but it is rather difficult to… do.]
Lucian was glad to hear that, but he was more interested in turning them into a permanent ability, so with an excited voice, he asked, "Tell what I have to do to make their abilities mine?"
[Uh… Well, you would have to first kill that person, and then you… you would have to…]
Zero seed to hesitate, which was irritating Lucian, so he spoke in a loud voice: "Just tell about it. Even if it is bad, not knowing about it will make a change."
[Sigh, fine. After killing that person, you would have to turn that person's heart into a paste and then consu it.]
Lucian's body halted suddenly as he read her words. A disgusted expression appeared over his face; just imagining sothing like that was making his stomach churn.
"Oh that… That was worse than I imagined. I am supposed to perform cannibalism. Hmm, yeah, definitely a great option.
Sigh, so turning them into my ability permanently is not really an option. Still, copying abilities isn't that bad of an option," Lucian spoke, then he continued to fly, removing this matter from his mind.
After a few minutes, he had arrived at the place where battle marks could still be seen all over the place. He landed on the ground, and after making sure that no one was around, Lucian decided to check out if any changes had occurred in his abilities.
Raising his right hand, he manifested the fla of corruption over his right hand and just stared at it for a few seconds. It seed much darker than before; the space around Lucian seed to have turned dark. It definitely seed much stronger than before.
Lucian picked up a stone from the ground, then he focused on his right hand once again and willed the flas to increase in intensity.
But Lucian didn't know how much force he should have used, so the fla instantly rose more than a ter over his hand, which was an impossible task before. At first surprised, Lucian looked at it in satisfaction.
With his left hand, he threw the stone into the flas. Just as the stone ca in contact with the flas, it felt as if it was frozen in the air. The slowing effect had also greatly increased. Just as Lucian had started to get excited, he heard the slight sound of cracks forming over the stone.
It was not only because of the decaying effect, but it seed as if the stone had suddenly aged by dozens of years. Lucian decided to continue with his experint.
He stared at the stone, and in around two minutes, the stone broke into pieces and continued to flow. He was greatly astonished by this.

"The flas of corruption had beco so strong. Is there such a big difference between the 3rd and 5th phases? I wonder how much my strength will grow once I reach the 6th phase of evolution.
I need to enter the 5th phase Chasm as soon as possible," Lucian mumbled as he finally decreased the intensity of the fla and allowed the remains of the stone to fall down.
After pondering for a mont, he aid his right hand and pointed it towards a plant growing not too far away from here. Previously, it was impossible to separate these flas from his body, so he wanted to test this out.
After a deep breath, he tried shooting the black fla off his hand. Like a bullet, it flew towards the plant and engulfed it entirely. The flas remained around it for less than ten seconds before disappearing, but the plant had already turned into ashes by that ti.
"These flas are really dangerous. The next ti I fight soone, they would be in great trouble," Lucian finally retracted the flas, then he decided to test out Velm.
Stretching both his hands, he aid towards the open ground, and in the next mont, two thick tentacles flew out of his arms. Each of them was more than a ter thick; it looked gigantic— a lot bigger than before.
Even the strength and speed had greatly increased. It moved in and out of the ground in a zigzag manner, tearing through the ground so easily. It was able to extend for over a hundred ters before its speed had started to slow down.
"Even the strength of the beetle insects has increased greatly. They are already at the peak of the 4th phase of evolution, and I am sure after I reach the next phase of evolution, then they will also evolve.
These tiny insects have beco so terrifying that if I let them loose here, this planet would be brought to extinction. It's almost impossible to completely kill them all," Lucian jeered, freely moving the large tentacles, which were as thick as the stems of thick trees, which were previously so thin.
After a mont, Lucian decided to try another thing. He brought both his hands together, and as both the large tentacles rged, under Lucian's control, the red substance began to take a large humanoid shape. It ford a large body that stood over twelve feet.
"I hope this works." After taking an anticipated breath, he separated the large body from his own. Over the red body, countless dots could be seen.
As the countless beetles moved over its body, it didn't almost disappear, so Lucian heaved a sigh. Then he tried giving it a command, and much to his joy and surprise, the large body jumped. It walked and ran without any difficulty.
Lucian walked closer to it; he touched the surface, which felt quite hard. Then he manifested the flas of corruption that covered its body, and this ti the flas didn't go out even after a minute.
He tried various kinds of attacks from the giant body, which shot the flas and beetle insects under his command. Lucian was able to perform almost all the attacks that he had imagined.
Even after half an hour, the flas, Velm, or the insects—none of them disappeared, so finally, he allowed the part of Velm to co back. With a satisfied smile, he rose into the sky and flew towards Scarlett.
