High Above Chapter 60

  Chapter 60 Nothingness

   "It's time too."

  Hilliard nodded slightly, he knew it was inevitable: "Next, you will officially embark on the road of ascension, and there will inevitably be many dangers and obstacles on the road, even life and death crises."

   "But in this land, it is better to be a sublimator than an ordinary person."

"…yes."

  Ian was silent for a while, he could still recall those hesitant inquiries, the laughter of the survivors after the catastrophe, and the crying of the child.

  The white-haired boy turned his head and looked out the window.

  In the starless dark night, only the moonlight shines brightly, making the sky appear deep and dark, as if it can swallow everything.

   He stared at the sky and said in a low voice: "I need strength to fulfill my wish."

  The old knight nodded slowly, and said softly: "Have you chosen the first organ to be strengthened?"

   Lowering his head, Ian stared at his body, nodded and said, "I've chosen."

   "I choose the liver."

   What stands between ordinary people and sublimated apprentices is the virtual source seed and source seed.

  From an apprentice to a real sublimator, it does not happen overnight.

   Before taking various potions and supplements, performing various specific trainings and learning targeted channeling techniques, it still needs a long period of precipitation and sharpening as a foundational foundation.

  For example, from scratch, strengthen an organ in one's body into a 'sublimated organ' that is more powerful than ordinary people, even unimaginable.

   Immediately after condensing the source seed, the sublimator apprentice needs to determine the first organ that will be sublimated.

  Of course, the first sublimated organ will determine the direction of the sublimated person's future path.

  Although, no matter which organ is chosen as the initial target, after all the organs of the whole body are sublimated in the future, the overall effect will be quite similar.

  But as the organ of initial practice, the field it represents must also be the field that the ascendant is most familiar with and better at.

After all, even if it is the same bloodline inheritance, such as the 'sea dragon bloodline', different sublimators who specialize in 'tail', 'claw' and 'breathing organ' respectively, they will definitely have different specialized development directions in the future, and they are good at The way of fighting is definitely different.

  Now, Ian's chosen 'liver'.

  The domain it represents is 'activity'.

  For ordinary humans, the main function of the liver is to metabolize, produce various vitamins, store sugar, and produce bile, which can promote fat digestion.

  The liver is also responsible for the detoxification and detoxification in the human body—most of the various toxins that humans eat and come into contact with are transported to the liver, detoxified and then metabolized and excreted.

   To put it simply, what Ian chose was the specialization of [detoxification] [enhancing sugar storage] [enhancing body metabolic activity] and [absorption of calories].

  The so-called 'endurance'.

   This is a deliberate choice.

  In Nanling, the aborigines are good at using poison, and often use poison. Various mosquito toxins, plant poisons and biological poisons are their weapons.

  Aside from other things, the sleeping powder Ian himself used was originally a hunting product commonly used by the aborigines.

   Not only that, even if it is not Nanling, if you want to travel outside the continent of Terra, you need to be careful of other adventurers, robbers and unscrupulous shopkeepers in ambushes and traps, and you must deal with all kinds of strange poisons.

  Most of the various emergency foods in the wild also contain certain toxins, more or less.

  As for others, such as glycogen storage, enhanced metabolism and physical strength enhancement, they are all incidental.

   "My psychic power can predict the horizon and also mobilize the blood to deliver nutrients. Although I don't know if retinol has anything to do with my psychic power, it's never wrong to strengthen the liver."

  Ian felt that his choice was quite perfect, and Hilliard also recognized this.

   "Good choice."

  The old knight nodded and agreed: "In the system of Fudo Fortress, the liver is responsible for secreting 'rock fluid', a sublimation substance that will circulate along the blood and deposit at the end of the capillary network."

"In the sand armor apprenticeship stage, your skin will be tougher, and after you complete the sublimation of the three parts of the 'heart', 'body blood circulation system' and 'skin', you will be able to obtain an extremely powerful sublimation ability' Rock armor', no fear of swords or even bows."

   "This is also the core ability of the rock-forged knight at the second energy level. The earlier you sublimate, the faster you can master it when you advance."

When he said this, he seemed to recall the past episodes, with some emotion: "The liver is the basis of the physiological circulatory system. Before your puberty, it is more suitable for strengthening than the heart and lungs, not to mention that it is best to wait until adulthood to strengthen muscles, bones and skin."

  When the age is too young, the strengthening of the musculoskeletal skin will prevent the body from continuing to grow and maintain the body shape of a child.

  Although some inheritances do this deliberately, it can save resources and speed up the time for advancement. As long as you practice to the third energy level, you can control your own body shape at will. It is only a matter of time before you grow taller or become smaller.

   But now, this kind of path has been abandoned. After all, those who can really hit the third level of sublimation do not lack this resource.

"let's start."

  After Hilliard's inspection, Ian will be in the most perfect state, condensing the source seed.

The five energy levels of the sublimator, according to legend, originated from the seven-story ladder in the ancient Terra mythology. Gradually sublimated itself.

  After sublimation to a certain level, the whole body is already a sublimated organ, until even the brain is promoted, and when the spiritual radiance begins to condense in the mind and body, you can try to advance to the second energy level [Condensation].

At this stage, human beings will start to have a soul initially, and try to sharpen it to condense their own brilliance—the existence of the soul is the core of the later stage of the road to ascension, and it is also the reason for those who are not born with psychics to gradually awaken their psychic powers The essential.

  The state called [Heart Light], the third energy level of the ladder, the unity of soul and body, is the most critical sublimation in the lofty self-improvement.

  The current Ian is just the first step on the ladder.

   But it is also the most critical first step.

Ian has already rehearsed countless times in his heart, whether it is the mobilization of the source quality or the structure of the source seed, he is very familiar with it. If it is not for the sake of insurance, in case he is too weak after advancing to the source seed, he cannot replenish his physical strength immediately He fainted from hunger, he didn't even need Hilliard, and he could complete this sublimation by himself.

   Obviously, he still ignored the importance of a good teacher in an ancient tradition.

  With the regular heartbeat accompanied by a slight buzzing sound, the source quality in the virtual source seed is extracted, passes through the whole body, and finally converges in the heart again. In the process of the white-haired boy's whole body lit up with light blue light patterns.

  These fine and regular lines are criss-crossed, and finally intertwined into a ring, condensed in the heart, forming a precise and complicated line.

  The fine source quality chips are arranged and combined to build their own structure in the blood circulation of Ian's whole body. It can be vaguely seen that this complex texture map has a great overlap with the distribution of human blood vessels.

   Light flickered in the dark room. As the golden virtual source seed from Hilliard was gradually disassembled, a brand new light cyan source seed that belonged exclusively to Ian was taking shape.

  Although it is light blue, if you look at it from the perspective of the prophetic vision, there is still a certain amount of Hilliard's power around the source seed, and there is a blue-gold mist that is unique to it.

   "Ian, you must remember what I'm going to say next."

  As Ian's condensing of the source seeds gradually got on the right track and began to enter the extremely exhausting water grinding time, Hilliard suddenly said: "You continue to condense, don't stop, but at the same time listen to me."

"Um."

  Even though he was condensing the source seeds, Ian still had enough energy to distract and respond.

  He has personally experienced Hilliard's knowledge and strength, and he is very clear that he is concise and powerful in his direction, without a word of nonsense, and he is an unexpected good teacher.

  In a few days, the old knight gradually spread his understanding of the entire Terra continent for him. The knowledge points he emphasized should naturally be carefully memorized.

  However, even if he was mentally prepared, what Hilliard said next moment still stunned Ian.

   Even, I feel that I may be hallucinating.

   "Actually, the source seed does not exist."
