Ji Xinghuo imdiately stopped shooting arrows and stood still.
He had experienced an evolution once before, but this was his second evolution, triggered by the accumulation of Star Power to a certain extent, which was different from the initial evolution that involved rging with an Alien Species to acquire Star Power.
Firstly, his sensations had beco clearer.
Ether Affinity allowed him to see the reactions of the Ether Energy around him, which seed to boil over, rushing towards his body rapidly and with increasing intensity and range.
Ji Xinghuo opened the Wanxiang Star Pupil interface, the human silhouette on the right side was flashing, and every Alien Species within his body shimred with a faint light.
"When life evolves, abilities also get enhanced."
"There’s even a certain chance of advancent."
Thinking this, he looked at the ability information on the left side of the interface. Just then, the progress of Thousand Spirit Skillful Hand had increased slightly to (Third Level 2/1117).
"It really did increase."
Ji Xinghuo was sowhat surprised, but not too astonished.
Apart from himself, other Mutants couldn’t use Spiritual Origin Ability to enhance their abilities; their only thod was more practice, but relying solely on training was too inefficient. Therefore, many Mutants could only hope for life evolution, anticipating that it would also enhance their abilities during promotion.
Soon, Ji Xinghuo saw his [Star Power Value] also rise by one, reaching 278.
More and more Ether Energy surged into his body.
In the interface, countless tiny light spots floated within the human silhouette, increasing in number and density, spreading throughout his body.
These light spots were Star Power.
Gradually, the Star Power grew to 279, 280, 281... and after a few minutes, it surpassed 300 and continued to climb.
Ji Xinghuo stood still, feeling comfortable all over. From skin to flesh, from bones to internal organs, trillions of cells throughout his body were nourished by energy, becoming robust and powerful, enhancing their functions, and climbing step by step towards higher forms of life.
He closed his eyes and thought, "This is life evolution!"
Each evolution was a qualitative leap in the essence of life, reaching higher levels.
Even though according to the standards of the Star Realm, this was rely advancing from First Rank to Second Rank, still at the initial stage, this sensation of ascension gave Ji Xinghuo the ultimate satisfaction both physically and psychologically, an unforgettable experience that he would tirelessly pursue in the future.
There was nothing more exhilarating than this!
Ji Xinghuo was imrsed in the experience until, after several minutes, the surrounding Ether Energy gradually subsided, and the human silhouette in the interface stopped flashing.
The evolution had ended.
The information on the Wanxiang Star Pupil interface also stopped updating and stabilized.
[Owner of Wanxiang Star Pupil: Ji Xinghuo]
[Race: Human from Earth]
[Rank: Interdiate Mutant]
[Star Power: 347/347]
[Ability: Thousand Spirit Skillful Hand (Third Level 102/1117), Rotating Magnetic Field (Second Level 56/1699), Ether Affinity (Third Level 197/1439)]
[Spiritual Origin Ability: 0]
Ji Xinghuo compared the data before the evolution.
This ti he had advanced to an Interdiate Mutant, with a direct increase of 70 points in Star Power. Although the increase seed small, the amount was significant.
He had speculated before that a Mutant’s second evolution usually added about 30-35 points of Star Power, but his own had doubled, even on the basis of an already profound initial Star Power, once again taking a considerable lead and laying a more solid foundation for the third evolution.
Life evolution was like building construction, the more solid the foundation, the better the effects of later evolutions, and the higher the potential limit.
Ji Xinghuo had no way of knowing the specific Star Power data of other Mutants.
He could only estimate through regular contact that a newly promoted Interdiate Mutant should have about 150 Star Power points, with an error not exceeding 20 points.
At the peak of Interdiate level, they would have about 240 to 260 points.
But now his Star Power was 347!
"Winning at the starting line."
Ji Xinghuo felt delighted, this was because he had rged with three Alien Species as a Primary Level Mutant, including one with Ether Affinity, which made his Star Power much higher than others.
He glanced at the ability information.
All three abilities had gained a slight enhancent during this evolution.
Though still far from upgrading, he had saved nearly 200 points of Spiritual Origin Ability, which was a pleasant surprise.
Next, Ji Xinghuo began to adapt to his evolved body.
Strength, speed, and endurance all enhanced, bench pressing weight broke through 1200 kilograms, running 400 ters in 20 seconds, and completing 10,000 ters in less than 12 minutes.
If he activated Rotating Magnetic Field, his strength and speed could surge again, comparable to a typical Super Mutant!
The physical quality of a Mutant improved most rapidly from Primary to Advanced level, with no bottleneck for the first three ranks, as long as Star Power was sufficiently accumulated, evolution could be triggered.
However, reaching the peak of Advanced level didn’t an one could directly advance to a Super Mutant.
The biggest enhancent for Super Mutants compared to Advanced Mutants was the increased growth and qualitative change in Star Power, but at this stage, enhancent of physical qualities was not very noticeable, without powerful abilities, the strength and speed were almost at the limit of normal flesh and bones.
The differences between Professional Templates and abilities began to beco prominent.
So non-physically enhancing professions, like a Master, wouldn’t have much better physical qualities than Ji Xinghuo now.
That’s why Ji Xinghuo was able to kill the female Master from the Myriad Beast Garden with three arrows, and so could Shadow Blade Ji Zongbang.
If I switched to a physically strong profession, I wouldn’t stand a chance.
"The body is the capital of revolution."
"Thick blood, high defense, a strong body, that’s how you live longer!"
"Hexagonal warriors are the real deal!"
Ji Xinghuo, feeling the strength of his body after evolution and combining it with his own experiences, reached this conclusion. If he kept going down the Ranger path, one wrong move could leave him in the sa plight as Shadow Blade Ji Zongbang and the female Master.
Upon advancing to an Interdiate Mutant, one could fuse with an Ability.
Ji Xinghuo could hardly wait.
He left the training room and as he passed by the garden, he saw Ren Mian sitting on the swing, reading a book.
Several broad-leafed plants ford a sun shade above her head, blocking the fierce sunlight. Beside her, another plant with leaves that could rotate like a windmill continuously provided her with a breeze, keeping the swing cool.
Ji Xinghuo was accustod to this scene.
Ren Mian tended the garden daily and occasionally disappeared for a few hours, but most of the ti, she was at ho reading, drawing, and sotis playing the musical instrunts. She knew how to play many instrunts like the guzheng, piano, and flute with a high level of proficiency, but she was never seen Cultivating.
Placed in ancient tis, she would be a well-educated lady of high status, also a beauty capable of causing the downfall of cities and states.
"Sister Ren," Ji Xinghuo called out.
Ren Mian lifted her gaze from the book, and after a glance at him, she expressed surprise, "You advanced?"
"Yes."
Ji Xinghuo wanted to share his joy with her first.
"Not bad, not bad!" Ren Mian eyed him carefully, with surprise evident in her eyes, she exclaid, "Your talent really exceeded expectations. In just seven months, you went from an ordinary person to an Interdiate Mutant. It’s been almost two hundred years since the Opening of the Star Gate, and the whole of humankind can hardly find anyone quicker than you."
"Without your nurturing, I could not have improved this fast," Ji Xinghuo sincerely thanked her.
Ren Mian smiled and shook her head, "You’re hardworking and talented, I rely gave you a push. Even without , you would have shone eventually."
Despite her words, her face was filled with a sense of achievent.
"Let’s go."
Ren Mian put down her book, "Now that you’ve advanced, you can fuse with an Alien Species. Let’s head to the Dragon Watch Platform now, Selena should have prepared the Alien Coexistence for you."
The two left together, and as usual, Ji Xinghuo rented a large ta wind deer for them to ride together.
As the large ta wind deer ran, Ji Xinghuo placed his hand on Ren Mian’s waist, to which she had no reaction, as if she was used to it.
They soon arrived at the Dragon Watch Platform.
Upon entering the inner mall, it was still the usual deserted scene.
Just as they entered Selena’s room, they saw her get up and excitedly say, "Miss Ren, your timing is perfect. The Alien Coexistence you requested arrived the day before yesterday."
Ji Xinghuo’s heart leaped with joy, but his expression remained calm.
Ren Mian simply nodded slightly, "What a coincidence, let take a look."
Selena took out a beautifully crafted box and slid it across the table after opening it. Inside lay an odd-looking Alien Species, resembling a lump of sludge with a murky color, slowly moving within the small box like a live creature, occasionally emitting a few pungent odors.
"This is Alien Coexistence?" Ji Xinghuo was astonished.
He had never seen any information about Alien Coexistence before, and without internet in Olympia, gathering information was inconvenient, so this was his first ti seeing it in person.
"Yes, Mr. Ji," Selena, having t Ji Xinghuo several tis and recognizing his surna, introduced, "This Alien Species, we acquired at a great cost from an Alien Species company, it’s definitely genuine and ready for fusion any ti."
"How much?" Ren Mian asked.
"58 million," Selena responded sincerely, "That’s our acquisition cost. It’s marked up by about 60%. Miss Ren, would you accept that?"
Ji Xinghuo was shocked by the price.
That ant the original price of Alien Coexistence was around 36 million, which seed excessively marked up.
Yet Ren Mian did not even frown, "I’ll take it."
As she spoke, she pulled out a lush and tempting fruit about the size of an apricot, all of them expansion marvels known as Sky Blue Fruit, totaling seven.
Placing the Sky Blue Fruit on the table, they rolled around a few tis, not that anyone would recognize them as anything but ordinary fruit.
Selena quickly cupped her hands around them to prevent them from rolling off.
"Still the sa price, one Sky Blue Fruit for 30 million. Two for the Alien Coexistence, with an extra two hundred thousand as your personal tip. Transfer the money for the other five to my bank account," Ren Mian crisply concluded the deal.
"Yes, it will be in your account within half an hour," Selena’s face lit up with a smile, "Thank you, Miss Ren, for your trust in Dragon Watch Platform and for your support of ."
These seven Sky Blue Fruits were worth 210 million, but what they could obtain in exchange was worth far more than just money!
She herself would reap great benefits as well.
Ren Mian nodded, picked up the Alien Species, and left with Ji Xinghuo. Back at the villa, she handed the box containing the Alien Species to Ji Xinghuo, quietly saying, "You can try to rge now."
Ji Xinghuo did not say any words of thanks.
His hand lightly touched the Alien Species, and imdiately, interface information appeared before his eyes.
